Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 165: Chapter 165: If You Leave, I Shall Follow (8)

Gazing at the boy’s exquisitely tense features, Qin Yiyao pursed her lips and remained silent.

Qin Yiyao’s silence did not elicit any reaction from Mu Qingge, instead, it made her quicken her pace.

A troop of several hundred people charged toward Yi City like a whirlwind.

Mu Qingge had no time to waste on Qin Yiyao; since she wanted to go, she would go. Arriving at Yi City, the scene of beasts attacking the city would likely make the Princess who grew up deep in the palace regret her impulsive decision today.

However, when the time comes, she’d still have to divert her attention to return her. What a hassle.

Mu Qingge’s eyes darkened, her hand wielding the whip struck the horse fiercely once again, spurring the horse into a high-pitched neigh and galloping faster.

From Luodu to Yi City, according to the average speed of ordinary people, it would take about ten days.

If pushed hard with fast horses day and night, the time could be halved.

Currently, Mu Xiong had not transmitted any messages for five days; Mu Qingge needed to hurry over to clarify what happened.

...

In Luodu, Qin Jinhao received an urgent summon to the palace.

After discovering that Qin Yiyao had silently left the Prince Mansion, he sensed that something was amiss.

Entering Phoenix Palace, Qin Jinhao immediately saw his mother’s face so dark it seemed to drip water. The maidservant beside his Imperial Sister was also kneeling in the hall, trembling.

Glancing at the maidservant, pondering his thoughts, Qin Jinhao addressed Consort Jiang, ”Mother, what happened?”

Consort Jiang’s latent anger slightly twisted her beautiful features.

Upon hearing Qin Jinhao’s words, she sneered coldly through gritted teeth, her sharp gaze falling onto the kneeling maidservant: ”You truly have a wonderful sister!”

Indeed, it involved Changle!

Qin Jinhao’s eyes flickered, already harboring suspicions in his heart.

”What happened to the Imperial Sister? She had visited my mansion previously, but then she left without a word. Before entering the palace, I was even considering sending someone to inquire at the Princess Mansion.” Qin Jinhao expressed confusion to Consort Jiang.

That innocent expression left Consort Jiang momentarily unsure of how to vent her frustration, forcing her to extend a hand clad in vivid red nail polish, pointing coldly at the maidservant: ”You ask her.”

Qin Jinhao immediately turned to face the kneeling maidservant.

The maidservant dared not conceal anything and repeated Qin Yiyao’s words when she left.

Suddenly, Qin Jinhao’s expression also turned unpleasant.

”Listen, your wonderful sister really is making progress. Usually so aloof, now she’s done something so disgraceful. Anyone could be liked, but she chose a useless wastrel. Not even married yet, she has rushed over to share life and death with him.” Consort Jiang grew increasingly furious, glaring at the maidservant with an expression that wished to tear her to shreds. It seemed as though the one kneeling below was Mu Qingge, the real culprit.

Qin Jinhao’s gaze shifted a few times, then he looked down at the kneeling maidservant and instructed, ”You may leave now.”

The maidservant seemed to be granted amnesty, quickly raised her head to look at him gratefully.

Yet, she dared not depart like this, instead casting a fearful glance at the final decision-maker. Seeing that the Consort had not expressed any opposition, she hastily expressed her gratitude and exited the hall.

Once the maidservant had left, Qin Jinhao looked at his mother and cautiously said, ”Changle was indeed too impulsive this time, Mother, do not be angry.”

Consort Jiang snorted coldly, her heart filled with dissatisfaction towards her daughter’s willfulness.

The Empress Dowager wished to pair Changle with Mu Qingge, originally believing her daughter too proud to regard those with excellent traits and virtues as beneath her notice, much less a wastrel who cannot cultivate? Hence, she had not interfered much. Little did she expect that in a moment of inattention, her daughter would be lured away by Mu Qingge, that wastrel, without knowing if she had suffered any loss.
