Heavenly Divine Doctor: Abandoned Concubine

Chapter 198 – The Wang Fei’s Intention (2)

Since the time she had entered the palace, Empress Dowager had a neutral stand– she neither liked nor hated Lu Wushuang. But the emperor liked her, so she had been tolerant this far, not voicing opinion in matters concerning her.

However, after the Wang fei had slapped Lu Yaoyao the last time, the dowager was somewhat unhappy with her. Lu Wushuang’s balance seemed to be tipping, even if slightly, towards the unpleasant side.

Lu Wushuang was reluctant to return to her chambers. “Your Highness, this Wang fei just heard that the Little Prince has gotten better. So, one wanted to have a look.”

The Empress Dowager frowned in displeasure. “It is getting late. If Wang fei really cares about the Little Prince, she would let the Little Prince take a rest and visit him tomorrow instead.”

Lu Yaoyao is now in the prince’s residence. Given Lu Wushuang’s jealous temperament, if she sees her, she might attempt to assault her again.

The Empress Dowager did not want Lu Yaoyao to be wronged again. No one knew better than her the kind of person Lu Wushuang was. She had turned a blind eye to her antics up until now, but she felt it was time to put her foot down. Not only was the demand unreasonable, but it was also insincere. Also, she had a moral obligation to protect the girl tending to her ailing son.

“Empress Dowager...” Lu Wushuang made a desperate attempt but was cut short.

“Wang fei Lu, if you want to see the emperor, you might as well send someone to invite him instead of wasting your time here.” With that, the Empress Dowager laid bare the other’s true intention.

Lu Wushuang’s face turned green. She cursed the Empress Dowager several times in her heart. Only then did she grin and excuse herself.

“Since the Empress Dowager will not let this Wang fei visit the Little Prince, one will return to her chambers.”

The Empress Dowager was too weary and just ignored the unveiled rancor in Lu Wushuang’s words and simply waved her off.

Huffing and puffing Lu Wushuang returned to the Palace of Earthly Tranquility, “That damn...”

“Your Highness!” Dai Ping quickly stopped her. “Walls have ears!” She cautioned.

In case the Wang fei uttered something she should not, not only would she be punished but also the whole Lu family.

Lu Wushuang could not vent the pent up anger in her heart. Her eyes were red in exasperation. The Empress Dowager’s intuition was empirical. “Why won’t the Empress Dowager allow me to go to the prince’s chamber?”

Dai Ping whispered. “Your Highness, the Empress Dowager is clearly after you.”

Dai Ping sighed in her heart. Did Wang fei Lu dress like this to pay a visit to the Little Prince? She must have wanted to seduce the emperor. No wonder the Empress Dowager did not let her.

“Dai Ping, go to the prince’s residence tomorrow and find out what the emperor has done tonight.”

For some reason, Lu Wushuang had a bad feeling about this. She felt that it was unusual for the emperor to stay with the Little Prince this late. She had to find out what was going on. She had a gut instinct that much was being concealed.

“As you say, Your Highness.” Dai Ping replied immediately.

Dai Ping could not help but whisper a reminder. “Your Highness, the emperor does not like people probing his affairs. If His Majesty gets a wind about this, I am afraid he will be displeased.”

Lu Wushuang said coldly, “Then do not let the emperor know.”

The emperor was not someone to trifle with. If he were to discover that Wang fei was sending maids to spy on his affairs, he would not spare the palace maid from her deserved punishment–Dai Ping would never see the light again...

When Lu Wushuang’s resolute tone fell on Dai Ping’s ears, she knew that no matter how she tried to persuade her, she could not change her mind. Her mistress was bullheaded for her own good.

The Prince’s residence–inside the chambers...

Mo Rongyi had slept for two hours. If he did not feel the growling of his hungry stomach, he would not have woken up and just continued to sleep.

“Brother, why are you here?” Mo Rongyi woke up in surprise when he saw Mo Rongzhan seated next to him.

“I heard that you no longer feel pain after eating, so I came to see you.” Mo Rongzhan looked at his complexion. “You look better.”

Mo Rongyi touched his chest gingerly. He felt perplexed. “Except for feeling hungry, I do not feel any pain.” He half asked, half stated.

“Ask the kitchen to prepare meals and bring it here. I will be accompanying the Little Prince here.” Mo Rongzhan ordered the maid.

Mo Rongyi hastily interjected. “Brother, I want to eat something cooked by Lu Yaoyao.”

He was afraid that eating food from the kitchens would inflict pain all over his body.

Mo Rongzhan frowned slightly and said, “Bring Lu Yaoyao over.”

Madam Nuan kowtowed and answered, “Replying to the emperor, Miss Lu is in the small kitchen preparing the medicated diet for His Highness.”

“Then ask her to bring the medicated diet.” Mo Rongyi cried happily.

Mo Rongzhan raised an eyebrow, unable to understand his brother’s profound fondness for Lu Yaoyao. There must be something about her.

“Eunuch Ford, go to the imperial kitchen and bring my emperor brother meals.” Mo Rongyi added.

“Why? Can’t my little brother just share his medicated meal with me?” Mo Rongzhan blurted out. The one most surprised by those words was he himself.

Mo Rongyi paused for a moment and looked at his brother sheepishly, cheeks puffing as he did so. “Brother, Yaoyao only made a meal for me to eat. I’m afraid it would not be enough for both of us.”

With his little brother’s reasonable reply, the emperor was left speechless.
