Chapter 239: Fate, To sue
Lin Chujiu was calm from the beginning to the end. She didnât seem got affected by the Empress words. However, only she knew that her back was full of sweat.
The Empressâs words were cold and has killing intent.
When the carriage came out of the palace gate, Lin Chujiu took a deep breath, to calmed down her frightened heart: âWhat Imperial Concubine Zhou had said is right. I should stay away in the palace as much as possible.â
If she didnât listen to the medical system and enter the palace. She may not fall into this dilemma.
On the way back, only Lin Chujiu was inside the carriage. But, she doesnât want to sleep. She keeps thinking about the Empressâs words.
Lin Chujiu knew that the Empress had now finally ended treating her like her own people. In the Empress opinion right now, she has betrayed her when she cured Third Prince Xiao Zianâs disease. The Empress dissatisfaction was normal, but⦠â¦
The Empressâs warning today was too sharp and straightforward. It was not like her usual style. And what good will it bring to the Empress, aside from showing her resentment to her?
Similarly, the old mama in the garden house also asked the Empress: âNiangniang, there isnât any benefit to get by showing your disgust to Xiao w.a.n.gfei, right?â
âBengong doesnât need benefits. With this pressure of survival, Xiao w.a.n.gfei will try to become stronger and stronger. Bengong will wait for her to grow up more.â Xiao w.a.n.gyeâs legs were now good, Lin Chujiu cannot leave the capital easily. Even if she lead those people to her door, it will be very difficult.
Now, Lin Chujiu was smart enough. She also pushed her to the most dazzling position. Those people will definitely come to find her.
âFor the sake of my little seven, bengong should live well.â The Empressâs finger moved gently, but another purple peony fell on the ground⦠â¦

When Lin Chujiu returned to the Xiao w.a.n.gfu, Xiao Tianyao hasnât returned yet. But as for his whereabouts?
Housekeeper Cao didnât mention it, so she didnât ask. Lin Chujiu knew that she was not the master of the Xiao w.a.n.gfu. She was not qualified to ask about Xiao Tianyaoâs activity.
Lin Chujiu returned to her room and still thought about the Empressâs words. She also couldnât understand why she keeps thinking about it. Why did the Empress choose that disgusting way to warn her?
Lin Chujiu had some worries in her heart, so she didnât ask about Xiao Tianyao. Until she woke up the next day and didnât found traces Xiao Tianyao sleeping beside her. Lin Chujiu curiously asked: âw.a.n.gye didnât came back last night?â
When Qiuxi heard Lin Chujiuâs question about their w.a.n.gye, her eyes brightly s.h.i.+ne and said: âReplying to w.a.n.gfei, w.a.n.gye didnât come back last night. But, Young Master Su Cha came over last night and said that w.a.n.gye has urgent things to do. w.a.n.gfei should not to worry, for w.a.n.gye will come back tomorrow.â
â⦠â¦â When did she worry about him?
Lin Chujiu didnât explain herself. Explaining was useless anyway, so she just let them misunderstand her.
Because Xiao Tianyao was not in the house, Lin Chujiu was relatively free. Xiao Tianyao had said before to the others that she was free to leave the Xiao w.a.n.gfu. Lin Chujiu was not polite. She looked for Housekeeper Cao and told him that she will go out for a walk.
âw.a.n.gfeiâ¦â Housekeeper Caoâs facial expression was very difficult to tell.
Their w.a.n.gye was not in the house, so why did their w.a.n.gfei choose to leave right now? Is their w.a.n.gfei wanted to see him being scolded by their w.a.n.gye?
âWhat? I canât?â Lin Chujiu asked. Her voice was not big, but Housekeeper Cao felt uneasy. He always felt that if he refused Lin Chujiuâs request, he will end up unlucky.
No⦠⦠w.a.n.gye will be unlucky!
Housekeeper Cao didnât want her to go, but he still said: âw.a.n.gfei, you can go anytime, itâs just⦠â¦â
âJust what?â As long as she can go out, she can compromise.
If she canât eat a big one at once, she can eat slowly. One day, she will have an absolute freedom.
When Housekeeper Cao saw Lin Chujiu was not angry. He busily said: âItâs just, w.a.n.gye had said. If w.a.n.gfei wants to go out, w.a.n.gfei must bring a guard with her.â Although it sounded like a surveillance, it was really to protect Lin Chujiu.
After all, there was no lady in the capital can run around outside the house after getting married. Xiao w.a.n.gye was really good to Lin Chujiu.
With regards to taking a guard, Lin Chujiu was already expecting it. So, she immediately agreed.
Under Housekeeper Caoâs arrangement, Lin Chujiu left with an ordinary carriage of Xiao w.a.n.gfu. Her driver was the guard who will protect her. But not long after they left the Xiao w.a.n.gfu, the guard said: âw.a.n.gfei, we are being followed.â
This was also the reason why Xiao Tianyao doesnât want Lin Chujiu to go outside. There were many people watching Xiao w.a.n.gfu outside. It was dangerous for Lin Chujiu to go out.
Lin Chujiu has no purpose to go outside today. She only wants to come out and get familiar with the surroundings in the capital. But, who would have thought once she came out, she will be watched? Lin Chujiu didnât get angry, she simply said: âGo to the street. No, go to the direction of the Government Office.â
If they want to follow, then they should run well. They could follow her until they get tired⦠â¦

Imperial Doctor Qin was on duty yesterday and rested at the Third Princeâs palace. He only left this morning. Upon returning to his place, he didnât change his clothes. He rushed to find his master to report a good news.
âMaster, the emperor has given up Divine Doctor Mo.â Imperial Doctor Qin reported with an excited face.
For this day to come, they waited for decades⦠â¦
âFinally.â The silver-haired old manâs nose got sore when his tears came out: âFinally, this day has come.â
The silver-haired old man covered his face and cried loudly. His body trembled in his cries. Imperial Doctor Qin busily crouched on the side of the old man and persuade: âMaster, your body canât handle too much emotion. Donât be so excited. This is a happy event, you shouldnât cry!â
âI am happy, I am happy.â The silver-haired old man wiped the tears on his face and gradually calmed his emotions. âYou are right, I canât be too excited. I have to keep this broken body and let that hypocrite villain reveal his true face.â
The silver-haired old manâs eyes flashed with a strong light in his eyes: âGo to my room, take out my medicine box. Then arrange someone people to secretly send me to Ci Entang.â
The medicine box was the only personal belonging of the silver-haired old man. And the Ci Entang was the place he should originally have stayed. So, when Imperial Doctor Qin heard this, his face become pale: âMaster, you are leaving?â
âYes.â The silver-haired old man nodded his head, then added: âI originally wanted to use the third princeâs disease to make a grand road for you. Unfortunately, Xiao w.a.n.gye destroyed it. This master has nothing to teach you know. Our relations.h.i.+p as master and apprentice will end here.â
âMaster⦠â¦â Imperial Doctor Qin shook his head and grabbed the old manâs hand: âYou will always be my master.â
The silver-haired old man pulled out his hand hard. âYou may keep this master in your heart. But, I will go out this door. You must forget about me. You shouldnât let the Emperor learn about my relations.h.i.+p with you. Otherwise, he will not believe in you again.â
âMaster, thank you, thank youâ¦â Imperial Doctor Qin knew that his master taught him medical skills for a purpose. He let him become a palace doctor for his revenge. All these things cannot be denied, but his master also teaches him everything he knows.
The master and the disciple said a few more words. Then, Imperial Doctor Qin gave the old man a lot of money. The silver-haired old man doesnât have any hesitation. When the people in Ci Entang arrived, he asked them to send him to the Judicial Court.
He wanted to sue Divine Doctor Mo. He wanted to tell them that Divine Doctor Mo framed him, almost killed him, and robbed his wife⦠â¦
