Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 769: Chapter 204: With This Intelligence, She Wouldn’t Survive Two Episodes (First Update)

”Vassal Lord Yan Ya, you’re overthinking things. What I said was truly sincere. After all, His Majesty rules over the entire Taixuan Demon Realm; how could his harem be left cold and cheerless?” Mu Qingge squinted her eyes and chuckled.

Mu Qingge’s words brought a hidden delight to Yan Ya’s heart.

She ridiculed internally, ’This woman is indeed quite foolish. Just a few words and she’s utterly charmed, losing her way. Not to mention that His Majesty’s harem could be filled with whoever she desires, but even displaying herself as a Princess before the grand wedding would deeply displease His Majesty.’

After a disdainful internal sneer, Yan Ya stood up gracefully and bowed courteously, ”Then I must thank you, sister, in advance.”

Having said that, she suddenly seemed to recall something and reacted.

With a wave of her hand, a tray appeared in her grasp, upon which sat a steaming black pot.

Mu Qingge’s gaze inadvertently flicked towards the tray.

Inwardly, she sighed, ’Someone is rushing to their own ruin; with such foolishness, how can one continue to live?’

”Sister, I almost forgot. Now that you are carrying, it’s the perfect time for nourishment. I’ve personally prepared a nourishing soup. If sister doesn’t mind, please drink it,” Yan Ya said, holding the tray with both hands, smiling warmly at Mu Qingge.

”Of course. Thank you, Vassal Lord Yan Ya.” Mu Qingge smiled with genuine sincerity, as if she truly appreciated Yan Ya’s care, deeply moved.

Upon hearing this, joy glinted in Yan Ya’s eyes.

She held out the tray, aiming to pass it to the approaching Palace Maid.

However, Mu Qingge spoke at this moment, ”The distance between us isn’t too far; I must trouble Vassal Lord Yan Ya to personally bring it over.”

Yan Ya was taken aback, looking at Mu Qingge without understanding, yet no anomaly could be discerned from her smile.

The Palace Maid, hearing this, had silently retreated.

Yan Ya assumed Mu Qingge was putting on airs as a Princess and deliberately commanding her. Though displeased, she endured it for the sake of her plan, maintaining an impeccable smile, she walked step by step to Mu Qingge’s side, under her smiling gaze, placing the tray lightly on the table beside the recliner and smoothly lifted the lid.

Instantly, an enticing aroma wafted from the pot, making one’s mouth water.

”So fragrant.” Mu Qingge sniffed, her eyes squinting in praise.

Yan Ya’s slight nervousness dissolved in her unsuspecting smile, she stepped back a few steps, smiling, ”If sister enjoys it, I can prepare and deliver it daily, and accompany sister for a chat.”

”Such fragrance! Vassal Lord Yan Ya’s thoughtfulness indeed moves me,” Mu Qingge said, holding a spoon, stirring slowly in the pot, her voice more chilling than before.

Yet immersed in her own joy, Yan Ya failed to notice the change, believing her minor tricks had won over the Princess.

She wasn’t at all worried Mu Qingge might find out the soup was laced with Abortion Medicine.

After all, the Abortion Medicine was her mother’s secret formula, colorless and tasteless, undetectable by ordinary means. Moreover, drinking it wouldn’t cause immediate abortion; the toxin would remain dormant until three months later when it would strike.

By then, with the child lost, everyone would accuse the woman of being pretentious and unable to protect her unborn child; who would suspect her?

Unconcealed pride flashed in Yan Ya’s eyes.

As long as she witnessed Mu Qingge drinking the soup, everything would be settled.

”Someone.” Suddenly, the sound of a spoon dropping shattered Yan Ya’s daydream. Before she could grasp what happened, Mu Qingge’s cold voice reached her ears.

Having waited outside for a long time, eagerly anticipating their turn, Gu Ya and Gu Ye rushed inside at the summons.

Not only that, but with a wave, they brought ten Demon Guards into the hall.

The sound of armor clashing jolted Yan Ya awake from her bewilderment.

She looked at Mu Qingge, confused, only to discover the once gently smiling Princess now bore only a cold expression.

Feeling something amiss, she stood up from the chair, vigilantly watching Mu Qingge.

Mu Qingge coldly stared at her, speaking slowly, ”Vassal Lord Yan Ya, considering your deep affection for His Majesty, I’ve promised to let you into the palace. But to go so far as to harm the royal heir—that is deeply disappointing.”

Yan Ya’s face suddenly changed, she shouted, ”What do you mean! Are you trying to frame me?”

”Frame you?” Mu Qingge sneered. She pointed at the soup pot and said to Yan Ya, ”This pot of soup was brought by you, correct? From start to finish, no one has touched it.”

Yan Ya widened her eyes in disbelief, looking at Mu Qingge.

She internally denied, ’No! Impossible! She couldn’t have detected it! Nor could she have known beforehand! This matter, I haven’t told anyone!’

Mu Qingge shook her head in disappointment and said to Gu Ya, ”Go call the Imperial Physician and a few Great Feudal Lords. Some things are better clarified in front of them.”

Gu Ya withdrew without hesitation and found the people Mu Qingge needed as swiftly as possible.

”What are you going to do?” Yan Ya shouted in horror.

Mu Qingge looked at her coldly, ”Don’t say I wronged you or accuse me of framing you. I have a proud nature, and I can’t tolerate even a bit of grievance nor a grain of sand in my eyes. You say I wronged you, so I’ll invite the lords here, and we can discuss it well in front of them.”

Yan Ya’s face turned pale, her body trembling.

But Mu Qingge remained leisurely lying on the recliner, pretending to gently stroke her small, flat belly, her posture indistinguishable from that of a truly pregnant woman.

Gu Ya didn’t let Mu Qingge and Yan Ya wait long before bringing the necessary people.

The Imperial Physician from Taixuan Ancient Palace, along with Ling Jiu, Ji Fu, Qing Ze, Qing Yan, Su Sheng, She Yin, Su Yan, and Shu Quan arrived. This group of people stormed into the Mountain and Sea Palace and were momentarily stunned seeing the scene in the hall.

Su Sheng frowned, his expression somewhat impatient as he spoke, ”Princess, you hurriedly sent someone to summon us. What has happened?”

His attitude showed no hint of respect.

Mu Qingge didn’t mind but only smiled faintly, ”Something indeed happened. Normally, it wouldn’t trouble the lords, but the person involved has a special identity, and I had no choice but to ask you to uphold justice.”

”Oh? Vassal Lord Yan Ya is also here. Could it be related to what the Princess mentioned?” Ling Jiu, though unclear about the situation, was keen to add fuel to the fire seeing Yan Ya’s ugly expression.

Unexpectedly, his words made Yan Ya’s body tremble, and Mu Qingge added, ”Vassal Lord Ling Jiu truly has a keen eye, to spot the cause so quickly.”

Indeed related to this woman!

Ling Jiu’s eyes narrowed swiftly as he gave a wry smile at Mu Qingge’s compliment.

Hmm, not knowing what’s happening, it’s better to remain silent and watch the drama unfold.

When Gu Ya came, he didn’t hint at anything, only said to enjoy the show.

Alright, then they’ll honestly watch the show. Let’s see what trick their Princess wants to play.

”Yan Ya? Related to you?” Su Sheng looked at Yan Ya, his brows remaining furrowed.

”Old Imperial Physician, could you come and examine this pot of soup to see if there’s anything improper in it? Please check carefully, so as not to wrong a good person,” Mu Qingge spoke, quieting the hall.

The old Imperial Physician complied, walking over while Yan Ya’s eyes fixed intently on him, praying silently, ’Don’t find anything! Don’t find anything! Definitely don’t find anything!’ As long as nothing is found, today she can turn the tables and make that damn woman taste her prowess!

The old Imperial Physician went to the table for a careful examination.

He picked up the soup pot, sniffed it, then poured out the soup to inspect the residue carefully. He spent quite some time yet seemed to find nothing.

Yan Ya’s tense heart gradually relaxed, the vanished smile reappearing.

However, the old Imperial Physician didn’t give up. Instead, he took out a package of pink medicine powder from his sleeve and poured it into the residue.

Suddenly, the pink powder turned transparent, followed by black smoke rising from the residue. The old Imperial Physician paled in shock, quickly reported to Mu Qingge, ”Reporting to the Princess, this... this soup was tampered with highly sinister Abortion Medicine!”

”What!” Ling Jiu, who had been squinting eyes waiting to watch the drama, unexpectedly opened his eyes wide in surprise, showing fierce light upon hearing this.

Ji Fu also spoke blandly, his gaze drifting towards Yan Ya, ”Someone dares to harm Your Majesty’s descendants?”

Qing Yan also looked at Yan Ya, coldly smirking. The meaning in that smile was already clear.

”Was this soup sent by Vassal Lord Yan Ya?” Qing Ze spoke leisurely. Though a question, everyone had understood the answer clearly.

The four beside Su Sheng had no friendship with Yan Ya. Now, with such an event, they needed to maintain self-preservation more than ever. Otherwise, if implicated, convicted as conspirators, wouldn’t they be asking for trouble?

The four exchanged glances briefly, and Shu Quan spoke harshly, ”Yan Ya, you have a lot of nerve!”

”No! It’s not me!” Yan Ya defended, pale-faced and flustered, pointing towards Mu Qingge, ”It’s her! She wronged me!”

”Wrong you?” Mu Qingge sneered, ”Why would I wrong you? Is it that there was no medicine in the soup, or that I tampered with it myself? What would I gain from wronging you?”

Yan Ya was silenced by Mu Qingge’s questions.

The old Imperial Physician, however, seemed dissatisfied, looking at Yan Ya, speaking seriously, ”Vassal Lord Yan Ya, I have practiced medicine for a thousand years, never indulged in unfounded claims. The soup was indeed laced with Abortion Medicine, and this medicine is very special. After ingestion, it shows no effect immediately but after three months, signs of miscarriage appear, the fetus within turning into pus to be expelled. I have seen this medicine before, at your father’s residence. Back then, many of your father’s concubines couldn’t keep their pregnancies, this Abortion Medicine indeed contributed greatly!”

’Oh my! So behind this female Vassal Lord’s rise lies such hidden stories!’ Mu Qingge raised her eyebrows upon hearing. She glanced at the old Imperial Physician again, internally thinking, ’As they say, those who practice medicine know best the filth hidden within the Inner Courtyards, it truly doesn’t deceive.’
