Chapter 200 My doctor is very greedy for money
He had just experienced that cold aura, which carried a strong sense of dominance, last night.
Baili Moqing said, "Let's go and take a look."
Shu He couldn't help but worry and wanted to go and see what was going on.
Unexpectedly, the man turned around and said in a tone that did not allow for refusal, "Take Yi'er and have a good meal. You don't have to worry about anything else."
After saying that, he asked Beiji to push him to the front yard.
The next moment, a man in a gray and white gown threw Xiao Hei, who was guarding the gate, into the front yard.
Bei Ji looked at Xiao Hei, who was lying on the ground in pain and unable to get up, and his face turned cold. "Yi Zong, are you being too presumptuous? This is the prince's Biluo Courtyard, not your eldest princess's residence!"
Yi Zong completely ignored Bei Ji and his eyes fell on Baili Moqing, who was sitting in a wheelchair and had difficulty moving.
"Your Majesty, I have come here to take the woman named He Shu away."
His voice was not only devoid of respect, but even filled with toughness. It seemed as if he would forcefully attack and snatch it away if Baili Moqing didn't agree.
Baili Moqing sat in a wheelchair with a faint smile on his face, but anyone could see that there was a hint of coldness in that smile.
"Mr. Yi, are you here to arrest someone for my aunt?"
Yi Zong didn't say anything, so Baili Moqing took it as his tacit agreement and asked, "Did you bring the evidence?"
Seeing his face no longer showing signs of weakness, Yi Zong couldn't help but frown.
When I saw him a few days ago, didn't he look like he was on his last legs? Why did he look like he was fine now?
The eldest princess was still suffering, and he had no time to think about anything else. His first priority was to bring that woman back and cure the eldest princess's illness and detoxify her.
"Where is that woman?!"
Compared to Yi Zong's anxiety, Baili Moqing's expression was extremely calm, with a hint of laziness and casualness on his face.
"She's eating."
"She has been treating the wounded soldiers day and night these past few days and has worked very hard. This king will allow her to have a good meal."
"Mr. Yi, do you have any advice?"
Eat? The eldest princess is in danger, and they still have the mood to eat?
"Your Highness, let's be frank. I want that woman to go and cure the princess right now, immediately!"
Yi Zong stood in front of Baili Moqing, his aura full of power and a strong force of oppression.
Seeing this, Bei Ji hurriedly protected Baili Moqing to prevent him from being hurt by the pressure.
When Yi Zong saw that he had no defense at all, he showed some suspicion in his eyes.
Has he really lost all his martial arts skills?
A hint of coldness flashed across Baili Moqing's brows. He was taking this opportunity to test him!
Alert enough indeed.
"Cure?"
Baili Moqing pretended not to understand and just thought it was a simple demonstration.
"So you want to ask my doctor to treat your aunt? If you didn't explain clearly, I would have thought Mr. Yi was here to take someone away!"
"But, when you ask for help, shouldn't you have the same attitude as asking for help?"
His eyes fell on Xiao Hei who was covering his chest beside him, showing obvious dissatisfaction.
When asking for help, you should have the attitude of asking for help. If someone comes to you, shouldn’t you apologize first and then admit your mistake?
Yi Zong knew that he wanted to make him submit.
But why should he give in to Baili Moqing?
"We all know who poisoned the princess. Your Highness, there's no need to bring this up openly, right?"
"If you really tell everyone, you won't be able to protect that woman!"
Baili Moqing chuckled, "Protect? Why should I protect her?"
"As long as you can produce evidence to prove that it was she who poisoned my aunt, then even if my aunt doesn't want to be held accountable, I will never let the person who murdered my aunt go!"
Yi Zong looked at him, anger welling up in his heart. If he really cared so much about the princess, he wouldn't be in the mood to let that woman eat!
He clearly did it on purpose!
At this moment, Baili Moqing's eyes changed and became more fierce.
"However, if someone wants to impose a false accusation on my doctor without any evidence, then this is tantamount to trying to end my life!"
"Mr. Yi, do you think that I should let this man go easily?"
The air stagnated slightly and the pressure disappeared.
Looking at Baili Moqing sitting in the wheelchair, Yi Zong's face showed obvious sarcasm.
"Your Majesty, if it were you five years ago, I might still be a little afraid of you. But now, you have lost all your power and become a useless person. How do you think you can stop me?"
"Is it because of the Northern General behind you?"
How could a defeated general stop him?
Beiji's eyes shot out a cold and sharp look, and his handsome face revealed a cold murderous intent that he never showed normally.
"Mr. Yi, you think that if I am stripped of my title, I will no longer have any power around me, right?"
Baili Moqing sneered, "The title is gone, but my Shadow Guards are still here. Mr. Yi, do you want to fight with the Shadow Guards?"
Yi Zong's expression changed slightly, and a hint of fear was hidden on his seemingly calm face.
The Shadow Guards, King Dongli's personal guards, remain hidden in the darkness and are only deployed when King Dongli's life is in danger. It is said that each of the thirty-six Shadow Guards is above the fourth rank.
He certainly wasn't afraid of one or two fourth-rank ones, but if there was a group of them, plus a third-rank Bei Ji, if they really came into a fight, even if he was the number one in the Bei Di Palace, he wouldn't be able to leave unscathed.
"Would the prince use his most secret power for a woman?"
Yi Zong tested his attitude and felt that the chances of this happening were not high.
"You don't think so?" Baili Moqing asked him back.
Yi Zong looked at him, his eyes full of inquiry and suspicion, but his eyes, as deep and calm as a deep pool, made it impossible for him to find any flaws.
Finally, his tone softened a little.
"Your Highness, the Princess is your aunt after all. When we were in Beidi, the person she mentioned most often was you! It's clear that you have always held a very special place in her heart. I can imagine that the Princess should also treat you very well, right?"
"Could it be that you really bear to see the eldest princess suffer like this?"
"Mr. Yi!"
The displeasure between Baili Moqing's brows deepened, and his tone became higher.
"You need to be careful with your words! You sound as if I'm deliberately making my aunt suffer! As a deposed king stripped of his title, I can't afford to bear such an accusation!"
Yi Zong looked at his self-deprecating expression, his brows twitching with anger.
Can't afford it?
Would he, the great King of Dongli, feel that he cannot bear it?
If you really feel that you can't bear it, you wouldn't call yourself "this king" all the time!
When did he consider himself a "useless king" when he called himself such?
"But, Mr. Yi, are you sure that my aunt was poisoned?"
Seeing his expression change slightly, Baili Moqing knew that he had already known about the epidemic in the city.
"Last night, an epidemic broke out in the north of the city. A strange disease that causes severe illness has appeared in the refugee settlement. General Zhang has contacted my physician and requested that she go to the refugee settlement in the north of the city to treat the people."
"She told me about the symptoms of the common people. I think my aunt's symptoms are very similar to those of the common people."
"Could it be that my aunt has also contracted that strange disease?"
Yi Zong stared at him with a bad look. He knew clearly that this was strange, but he couldn't say anything.
He had heard about the disease in the city from the governor Su Su, who also suffered from the same symptoms.
Not only Su Su, but also the military officer Yang You showed this symptom.
But all these patients he saw with his own eyes had one thing in common, that is, they had direct contact with He Shu, the doctor beside King Dongli, and they all had more or less grudges with her!
In this situation, even if Yi Zong was a fool, he could guess something unusual!
But as Baili Moqing said, without evidence, his guess is just guesswork.
"My doctor can treat this disease, but the medicine and consultation fee are a bit expensive."
Yi Zong didn't want to waste any more time and said directly, "If I can save the princess, what does a small amount of money mean?"
"Mr. Yi is truly generous." Baili Moqing raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a genuine smile. "My doctor is very greedy. As long as the money is in place, she will do her best to make my aunt recover quickly."
Yi Zong stared at him as if he didn't know him.
Seeking wealth?
The dignified King Dongli also seeks wealth?
Could it be that he wanted to use this to humiliate the eldest princess?
No, not just humiliation, but also a warning!
He was warning the eldest princess not to touch anyone around him, no matter how old or young!
A murderous look flashed in his eyes, and the wind in the yard blew up countless fine snowflakes, sprinkling them on the people in the yard, slightly calming the anger in his heart.
"Money is not a problem. I want her to go and heal the princess right now!"
"No!" Baili Moqing refused indifferently, leaving no room for negotiation.
