Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 132: Chapter 132: Lord’s Face-Slapping Frenzy for First Subscription (4)

As she spoke these words, the Empress didn’t notice the flicker of an unusual light in Qin Jinxiu’s eyes.

This Crown Prince has a hobby he keeps well hidden, a secret even from the Empress.

That is, he is interested in both beautiful young men and women.

Previously, Mu Qingge was merely a useless wastrel with a pretty face and couldn’t catch his interest. However, yesterday at the Hunting Ground, he was captivated by the handsome and dashing young man.

If it weren’t for Mu Qingge stirring the unrest within him, why would he have been so desperate to seek out Bai Xiyue for relief?

If Mu Xiong were to die, leaving Mu Qingge without support, wouldn’t he then be able to do as he pleased? Once he tired of his games, he could kill him and settle the score for the humiliation he suffered yesterday!

”You make it sound easy. If Mu Xiong were so easy to kill, why would your father have waited until today?” The Empress shook her head with a sigh. She felt disappointed in this son. But what could she do? He was her only biological son.

Qin Jinxiu detected the wavering in the Empress’s tone and immediately stepped forward to cling to her arm, just like he did as a child, and whined, ”Mother, you’re so clever, you can surely come up with a good solution. Besides, Father already has an unfavorable view of the Mu Mansion. If we help him rid of this major threat, wouldn’t he value me more? Then, what right does Qin Jinhao have to compete with me?”

”You.” The Empress seemed persuaded by Qin Jinxiu’s words and helplessly poked his head, comforting him, ”This matter cannot be rushed. When the opportunity arises, I will tell you what to do. For now, hurry and tidy yourself up and attend court with your father.”

”Your son obeys.” With the Empress’s promise, Qin Jinxiu’s mood slightly improved.

He turned and headed to the inner chamber to clean up, and the thought that it wouldn’t be long before Mu Qingge was beneath him in delight rekindled the flames within him.

...

That night, it seemed as if everyone’s fate had changed due to their choices.

However, at the center of these events, Mu Qingge was directly taken back to Chi Yun Garden at the Mu Mansion by the mysterious gentleman and fell into a deep, peaceful sleep.

The next day, she was awakened by Hua Yue’s anxious voice.

”What’s wrong?” Mu Qingge asked groggily, her voice carrying a hint of laziness.

Hua Yue’s expression was a bit grave as she spoke to Mu Qingge, ”The old lord wants the young lord to go to the main hall.”

The old man was looking for her?

Mu Qingge opened her eyes, the last trace of sleepiness disappearing, leaving them clear and sharp.

”What time is it?” Mu Qingge propped herself up with one hand, sitting up and reaching to rub her hair.

”It’s just past the hour of the dragon.” Hua Yue handed over her clothes, responding.

Mu Qingge paused, a bit surprised, ”It’s only the dragon hour? It’s so early, the old man should have just returned from court.”

Hua Yue nodded, ”The old lord has been back at the mansion for less than a stick of incense.”

”Just returned and already looking for me? What could be so urgent?” Mu Qingge frowned.

”Because just after the old lord returned, Miss Bai went crying to him.” You He lifted the curtain and came in, pouring water into a basin for Mu Qingge to wash.

Bai Xiyue went to see the old man?

Mu Qingge’s eyes slightly narrowed.

Why did she sense a hint of scheming?

”And then?” she asked, narrowing her eyes.

You He and Hua Yue exchanged a glance, and then the former spoke slowly, ”It’s said that after Miss Bai saw the old lord, he flew into a rage. He then immediately sent someone here to Chi Yun Garden to summon the master. It seems someone has also been sent to call for the eldest miss.”
