Chapter 566 - Chapter 566 Chapter 566 Separation 4

Chapter 566: Chapter 566: Separation 4 Chapter 566: Chapter 566: Separation 4 This was the first time he had seen His Highness allow a woman to cling to him like this.

He felt that His Highness might fall into this woman’s hands.

This definitely wasn’t a good thing.

Mr. Zhu said nothing and simply took Mu Lingyun’s pulse as Mu Yanci had suggested.

Stroking his beard, Mr. Zhu pondered for a long time before coming to a conclusion about Mu Lingyun’s condition.

“If my feeling is correct, this young lady seems to be afflicted with Heartflame Poison. Could it be that she is… but that’s not right…”

Mu Yanci glanced at Mr. Zhu and spoke indifferently, “Speak plainly.”

“The Heartflame Poison, after infecting someone, generally does not flare up immediately. It only does so when a woman gives birth, causing her to bleed to death. After the mother’s death, the poison passes on to the child and starts to act up. It is said that a baby born carrying the Heartflame Poison does not survive beyond a year.” Mr. Zhu added earnestly after a pause, “It is rumored that the legitimate Queen of the Qin Kingdom had been inflicted with this poison, and after giving birth to the legitimate princess, Mu Yun, she died. This girl…”

Mr. Zhu had his suspicions, but everyone knew that the so-called legitimate princess Mu Yun had just returned a few days ago.

Ji Luochen glanced at Mr. Zhu and asked in a low voice, “How can this poison be cured?”

Mr. Zhu shook his head, and then said seriously, “I do not know, I am not capable of that. I can only prescribe some medicine to alleviate the pain.”

Hearing this, Ji Luochen said no more.

Mu Yanci then spoke, “Thank you for your efforts, Mr. Zhu. Please keep this matter to yourself, alright?”

Mr. Zhu nodded, then said, “If that is the case, I will take my leave now. Later, the medicine boy will bring the medicine over.”

Upon hearing this, Mu Yanci nodded in acknowledgment.

After Mr. Zhu left, Mu Yanci looked at Ji Luochen and said softly, “Your Highness, do you know that she is from the Qin Royal Family?”

“I did not know before, but I do now,” Ji Luochen said.

“Your Highness, it would be best for you to leave as soon as possible,” Mu Yanci said gravely.

If Mu Lingyun let the news of Ji Luochen’s presence here slip out, who knows what might happen.

After all, there have been many throughout history who controlled monarchs to command the Feudal Lords.

“I trust her,” Ji Luochen said in a low voice, looking at the sleeping girl.

He didn’t know why he truly trusted her.

But he just did trust her.

“She didn’t plan to deceive us from the beginning, did she?” Ji Luochen asked in a low voice, looking at Mu Yanci.

From the very beginning, she had told them her name was Mu Yun.

And just now, in front of them, she had used the Lingyun Spear.

Mu Yanci remained silent.

He could not argue, but simply felt that something about His Highness’s state of mind was not quite right.

When Mu Lingyun woke up, she found that His Highness was sitting on the bed, asleep leaning against the headboard.

And she was lying in his arms, asleep.

As for what had happened, she remembered it quite clearly.

Her whole body was in pain, almost claiming her life.

But in His Highness’s embrace, the pain had lessened considerably, so she clung to him, unwilling to leave.

Thinking that Ji Luochen had stayed with her the whole night like that, her ears felt a bit hot.

It wasn’t exactly shyness, but more that looking at Ji Luochen’s flawless face and his astonishingly serene sleeping expression, she felt it was a pity.
