Chapter 201

Ling Jingshu said what she had said to Wei Yan that day, one by one – her eyes glistened with tears, her choked voice was filled with anger, helplessness and fear

When it comes to her now suffering from a strange disease, it is more tearful and compassionate

Empress Xu at first listened to the careless, to later, but gradually sat up straight, listening to more and more mesmerized

Before coming to the capital, my daughter had already told my grandmother and father about this matter

I brought my compatriot brother to the capital, firstly to seek medical treatment for my compatriot brother’s eye disease, and secondly to avoid the two Lu family brothers

My daughter, having contracted this strange disease that is difficult to talk about, has long since decided not to marry for the rest of her life, and to avoid misleading others and herself”

Ling Jingshu wiped her tears with her sleeve, her eyes red as she continued, “His Highness King Yan is a handsome young man like no other in a million miles, and he favors my daughter, and my daughter is not hard-hearted, so how could she not know anything about it

I am just ashamed of myself, I do not dare to give birth to any thoughts, but also have no ambition to climb

I still ask Empress Mother to be clear about this”

Empress Xu stared at Ling Jingshu’s face, the young girl was beautiful and bright, and when she cried, she was as compassionate as a begonia with dew

Would such a beautiful young girl really have that strange problem of not being able to touch a man?

If this is really the case, then the things she used to interrogate Ling Jingshu before would become a joke

Also, did Wei Yan know about this?

Was there an affair between him and Ling Jingshu or not?Are you telling the truth?”

Empress Xu’s gaze was as sharp as a sword, forcing people to breathe, “You really can’t go near any man?”Yes!”

Ling Jingshu did not hesitate for half a second: “What my daughter just said, I would never dare to have half a word of falsehood

-If Empress Dowager doesn’t believe me, she can try it on the spot”

Counting on Ling Jingshu’s sense of humor

Even if she didn’t mention it, Empress Xu wouldn’t be able to easily believe her words

Wouldn’t an on-the-spot test be the best way?

Empress Xu’s eyes flickered as she said with a smile, “It’s a pity that there are only palace maids and chamberlains in this palace, and those chamberlains are all fake men who can’t be counted

Otherwise, how about this palace declares Eunuch Wei to come over and let him give it a try?”

After all was said and done, this was Empress Xu’s true purpose

Using these words to test the relationship between her and Wei Yan

Ling Jingshu laughed coldly in her heart

The look on her face became more and more ashamed, “There is still something that my daughter has not had time to report

Last time at Princess Changping’s residence, my daughter fell into a coma in order to save Princess Anya

Wei doctor for my daughter pulse diagnosis, my daughter at that time is not fully awake, will be in the bed on the couch threw up

So

There’s no need to find Imperial Doctor Wei to test it again”

Empress Xu’s eyes lit up for a moment, and she didn’t move as she let out an oh, “In that case, you really can’t touch any men?”

Ling Jingshu responded lowly, “Indeed

Dr Wei noticed that something was wrong with my daughter, and only after my daughter repeatedly pleaded with him not to publicize this matter, did Dr Wei reluctantly agree”

In that case

-Wei Yan and Ling Jingshu should not have an affair

Empress Xu’s mood steeply better, and then look at the kneeling Ling Jingshu is not so bad: “Okay, you also do not kneel, get up and talk!”

This first hurdle has finally been dealt with!

Ling Jingshu’s heart was relieved and she gratefully thanked her for getting up

Having knelt for too long before, her legs were sore and numb, and when she stood up, she stumbled a bit before barely standing still

Empress Xu sighed pretentiously, ”I really didn’t expect that such a young and beautiful girl like you would have such a strange disease

It seems that the Palace has wronged you for what happened before”

Ling Jingshu even said she didn’t dare, “Empress Mother said so

It’s really a shame that my daughter has been wronged

Your Highness Yan Wang’s favor and love, my daughter is really ashamed of it, please don’t blame the Empress”

Empress Xu faintly said, “This matter is also not your wish, since it is not your fault

On Yan Wang’s side, the Palace will deal with it appropriately in the future”Thank you, Empress Mother”

Ling Jingshu again thanked her with a touched face

Empress Xu tugged at the corner of her lips, her words taking a steep turn, “However, for something so important, this palace cannot just listen to your words and trust you

Didn’t you say that Dr Wei had seen your strange disease with his own eyes?

This palace will ask Dr Wei in front of you

If Dr Wei is the same as yours, the Palace will believe you for now”If Eunuch Wei is different from what you say, then I will not blame this palace for turning the other cheek!”

Finished speaking

Empress Xu raised her voice and called a palace maid in, commanding, “Go and invite Imperial Doctor Wei over”

That palace maid answered and swiftly retreated

The waiting time seemed extraordinarily long

Empress Xu casually ordered the palace maid to organize her makeup

Two palace maids immediately went to the side of the bed, one re-combing Empress Xu

The other applied powder for her

In just a few moments, Empress Xu was looking fresh and new

After the palace maids retired, Empress Xu idly looked at Ling Jingshu, who was left out to dry: “Doctor Wei should be here in a moment

If there is anything you haven’t said, it’s not too late to tell this palace”

This Empress Xu, she was indeed extremely suspiciousMy daughter has already known everything, if Empress Xu doesn’t believe me

There’s no harm in asking Eunuch Wei carefully”

Ling Jingshu replied with a calm demeanor

In fact, her heart was not as calm as her appearance

Although Wei Yan knew about her illness, neither of the two could have expected Empress Xu to become suspicious of her so quickly, nor had they ever discussed what to say in unison

If Wei Yan and she did not have this tacit understanding, stored good intentions to cover up for her and so on, today can be bad

Ling Jingshu’s heart fluctuated, but her expression did not show

Empress Xu seemed to smile and not smile: “I hope you are telling the truth, you are such a young watery girl, there is still a good youthful years

This palace is also unwilling to do that kind of hot hand merciless person”

In the light words, there was a cold chill that made one’s heart tremble

Ling Jingshu slightly hung her head, avoiding to meet Empress Xu’s eyes, “How in the world are things, when Imperial Doctor Wei comes, everything will be clear”

Empress Xu tugged at the corner of her lips and stopped speaking

The silence did not continue for too longYour Majesty, Imperial Doctor Wei has arrived and is waiting outside the palace”

The palace maid came to resume her orders

Empress Xu’s eyes flashed with a strange luster, “Let him come in!”

Soon, Wei Yan’s figure appeared in the Pepper Room Hall’s chambers

Wei Yan’s gaze swept and landed on Ling Jingshu’s seemingly calm but actually somewhat tense pretty face, and he could not help but be stunned

Shouldn’t she be at Wei Jieyu’s place when she entered the palace today?

How could she be in Empress Xu’s Pepper Palace?

Ling Jingshu swiftly glanced at Wei Yan, her gaze complex, seemingly with a thousand words

Wei Yan’s heart sank, and an unpleasant premonition surged
