Chapter 544: Disappointing Mu Yunbai
Chapter 544: Disappointing Mu Yunbai
"Doctor Liao, are you going out? Do you want a carriage sent for you?"
Because Danggui often treated people for free in the Prince's Mansion, Liao Xinyi was very respected in the Prince's Mansion.
When I went out, I met the guards at the door, and they greeted me warmly.
"No need, I'll just go to the nearby pharmacy to find some medicine."
"Little Doctor Danggui, come along too. My mother's medicine..."
"Don't worry, Master has already looked at the recipe. We're still missing two herbs, so let's buy them all."
"Thank you, Divine Doctor Liao, and Divine Doctor Danggui. Here are five taels of silver. Divine Doctor Danggui, please accept them. This is all I have with me today. If it's not enough, I will definitely make up for it tomorrow."
"Easy to say."
Danggui took the silver and walked out of the Prince's Mansion with Liao Xinyi, heading towards the street corner.
It was just past noon and there were not many people on the street. Danggui and Liao Xinyi were very eye-catching walking on the street.
Just then, the two of them arrived in front of a drug store and were spotted by Mu Yunbai who was passing by.
Mu Yunbai had previously been unable to obtain Liao Xinyi, and was even warned by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for this, which had always brooded over Mu Yunbai.
When Mu Yunbai suddenly met Liao Xinyi on the street today, he immediately felt the urge for revenge.
When he saw the two men enter the pharmacy, he stood guard at the door, but after waiting for a while, he saw no sign of them coming out.
So Mu Yunbai went into the drugstore and asked the clerk about the whereabouts of Liao Xinyi and the other person.
But the waiter told him that the two had already left through the back door.
Mu Yunbai originally only wanted to take revenge on Liao Xinyi, but when he heard that she left through the back door, he became curious.
He asked the waiter where the back door was and trotted after him.
When I went out, I saw a carriage turning out of the alley.
He looked back and saw no one else in the alley, so he was certain Liao Xinyi was in the carriage. It was too late to return to the carriage. Without a second thought, Mu Yunbai lifted his coat and began chasing. He ran to the alley entrance at the fastest speed he could, catching up with the carriage before it turned the next intersection, and then continued his pursuit.
In this way, the carriage ran in front and Mu Yunbai chased behind. Because of the long distance, he was not discovered by Liao Xinyi and Danggui.
After running only two blocks, Mu Yunbai, whose body was drained by alcohol and sex, could no longer run.
No matter how strong his curiosity was, it could not support his tired body. He could only watch the carriage go farther and farther away. Just as the carriage turned into the next street, the window suddenly opened and something fell out of the window.
Mu Yunbai hurried over to check it out. It was a golden token. If it were someone else, they would probably not recognize the origin of the token, but Mu Yunbai recognized it. It was a gold medal bestowed by the emperor. He had seen it once in his father's study. His father had obtained it from the emperor when he was doing an errand for the emperor, and he returned it after the errand was completed.
The one in his hand at this moment is basically the same as the one his father got at that time, except that there is a small icon in the lower right corner. This icon is exactly the same as the one on the carriage of the Prince's Mansion. It is obvious that it belongs to the Prince.
I have heard that the prince has a gold medal bestowed by the emperor, and I think this is the one.
Mu Yunbai didn't think about why such an important thing fell out of the carriage. He was thinking that the prince was in the carriage and Liao Xinyi was secretly meeting with the prince.
He said why would the prince care about his concubine?
It turned out that the prince himself had taken a fancy to Liao Xinyi.
Now it made sense, and Mu Yunbai felt relieved. He didn't have the courage to compete with the prince for the woman.
However, this would make the imperial gold medal in his hand a hot potato. If he returned it to the prince, he would know that he had discovered his affair with Liao Xinyi. But if he didn't return it, it would be a disaster if he kept it in his hands!
If Su Nuan knew what Mu Yunbai was thinking at the moment, she would probably be furious.
Because of her excellent hearing, she had already noticed that someone was chasing the carriage, but she didn't know who that person was. So she risked being knocked unconscious again and opened the window to take a peek, and as a result, she saw Mu Yunbai's sneaky figure.
Although it was a bit disappointing, she decided to take the risk and use Mu Yunbai to pass on the message based on the idea that something is better than nothing. So when Danggui was not paying attention, she threw out the most valuable thing on her body, which was also the thing that best symbolized her status.
This gold medal is the amulet given to her by Mu Yunting. I hope it can protect her again this time.
The reason why she threw away this gold medal was because it was special. Mu Yunbai could send it to the Prince's Mansion immediately after picking it up. She didn't expect that Mu Yunbai would imagine that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was having a secret meeting with Liao Xinyi.
"We're about to leave the city, Angelica, feed her another one."
The person who spoke was Liao Xinyi. Her voice was so cold that it made Su Nuan's heart sink.
Danggui held up a small red pill and was about to stuff it into Su Nuan's mouth.
Su Nuan turned her head away and said, "I won't say anything. Don't ask me to take medicine anymore."
After taking the medicine, she lost her independent consciousness and became Liao Xinyi's puppet, obeying her orders.
It was thanks to this little pill that she was able to ride in this carriage.
I don’t know if such a strange medicine will harm the child.
"No, I can't take that risk." Liao Xinyi seemed to have guessed Su Nuan's thoughts and continued, "Don't worry, this medicine won't harm the baby in your belly."
Su Nuan didn't believe this. This medicine was so evil. Even if it didn't kill the child, would it affect his development?
"All medicines are poisonous. If it affects the child, I won't be able to take medicine to regret it. Besides, I value my life. With the dagger in Danggui's hand pointed at me, I dare not do anything. Even if you don't trust me, can you not trust Danggui?"
Su Nuan laughed at herself and continued, "I never thought you two hid it so well. No one discovered that Danggui knew martial arts for such a long time."
As if persuaded by Su Nuan, Liao Xinyi no longer insisted that Su Nuan take the pill, and started chatting with Su Nuan.
"How could he be discovered if he was hiding it on purpose? The only person around you who might have noticed that he was good at fighting is Ye Yin, but didn't you notice that he rarely showed up in front of Ye Yin?"
Su Nuan thought about it and realized that it was just as Liao Xinyi said. Danggui rarely appeared in front of Ye Yin. She had never cared about this before.
