The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!
Chapter 1571 - 1566: The Peril of Rong YunChapter 1571 -1566: The Peril of Rong Yun
The court physician came to treat Nanny Yan, and immediately went to report to Qin Muyan, “Your Highness, Auntie Yan’s wounds are not healing, and now she has a high fever that doesn’t abate, it’s even more dangerous. I suggest moving her out of the prince’s mansion for recovery and temporarily avoiding the Princess’s visits, after all… the Princess is currently pregnant! If she catches the illness, it’s going to be a big problem.”
Qin Muyan put down his military affairs and personally went to see Nanny Yan, and indeed her condition was as the court physician described.
Qin Muyan persuaded Rong Yun, who was anxious to visit, to go back to her courtyard, then returned to talk to Nanny Yan about the matter.
Nanny Yan lay on the bed with a pale face, coughing and covering her mouth and nose with effort, “Cough! What the court physician said is true, if my illness is passed to the Princess, it would be a grave sin. I am willing to leave the mansion to recuperate, and after my health is restored, I will come back to serve the Princess!”
“It’s reassuring to hear you think like this, but rest assured, Your Highness will arrange for the best doctor to take care of you. Get well soon, as Rong Yun and the child still need your care,” Qin Muyan comforted her gently.
Nanny Yan felt very relieved, but since she had to move out of the prince’s mansion, she had something she must say to Qin Muyan, “Maid wishes to tell Your Highness one more thing since I am leaving the mansion, I dare ask Your Highness to deal with someone.”
“Who?” Qin Muyan asked.
“The first-class maid in Your Highness’s courtyard, Wan’er.”
Nanny Yan told Qin Muyan about the incident that occurred during Rong Yun’s birthday.
She had found out at the time, but since Wan’er was from Qin Muyan’s courtyard, she couldn’t act rashly. Then a series of events happened; Wan’er did not make any moves again, so she never mentioned it.
However, it was something she always kept in mind. She needed to remove this thorn for Rong Yun before she left.
Qin Muyan frowned, “Daring to stir up trouble, she is asking for trouble!”
Qin Muyan locked down Rong Yun’s courtyard and then had Wan’er seized for questioning. Wan’er could not stand Qin Muyan’s intimidating presence; she confessed everything upon interrogation and trembled, kowtowing for forgiveness, “Your Highness, spare my life! It was mere greed, all my fault! I didn’t know it would come to this…I dare not do it again!”
She knelt in front of Qin Muyan, limbs weak, like a paralyzed dog.
Qin Muyan waved his hand, “Gather all the servants of the prince’s mansion in the courtyard, drag her out, and execute her publicly.”
His face cold and merciless, cruel enough to make one tremble.
Wan’er’s mouth was gagged, and Wei Jue personally executed her, confirmed the death, and then dragged the body away.
All the servants of the prince’s mansion trembled, kneeling in the courtyard.
Qin Muyan standing before them spoke out loud: “If anyone else deceives Your Highness or tries to drive a wedge between Your Highness and the Princess, this will be their fate!”
“Your Highness, please calm your anger!”
Everyone kowtowed in fear, trembling in their hearts.
Seeing Qin Muyan act so decisively, Nanny Yan felt relieved to move out.
Before she left, since she couldn’t see Rong Yun, she entrusted the young girls Hong Xiu and Xiao Xiang to take good care of Rong Yun, to stay by her side at all times, and comfort Rong Yun by telling her that she was just going out to recuperate and would come back to take care of her once she was healed, so she could be at ease.
Rong Yun knew Nanny Yan was leaving, naturally cried, but Qin Muyan was there to comfort her.
She quickly felt better.
She wiped the teardrops from her cheeks, looking at Qin Muyan with soft eyes, “Promise me, once Auntie is healed, she must come back to stay with me.”
“Alright, Your Highness promises you, as soon as she is healed, she will be immediately allowed to return, at most in a month or two; by then your pregnancy will be stable, having her to take care of you, you’ll be more comfortable,” Qin Muyan promised, touching her head, pulling her gently into his arms.
His large palm rested on Rong Yun’s abdomen, feeling how it was still flat, and though there was no movement, he still laid on her stomach every night to listen, fantasizing that in nine months, there would be a child calling him Daddy.
“Qin Muyan, the imperial grandmother said that children only start to speak when they’re over a year old,” Rong Yun cradled the back of Qin Muyan’s head, speaking in a gentle and soft voice.
“Over a year old? Then I’m afraid it will be the year after next before I can hear him call me Daddy.” Knowing this, Qin Muyan, just like Rong Yun, showed a look of regret, “I heard that my cousin’s child can already walk, and by now, he must also be calling out to his parents.”
“Who is this cousin?”
Rong Yun blinked her big eyes, her gaze flickering with intense curiosity as she looked at Qin Muyan.
Qin Muyan paused, “She is…”
He was confused!
He had actually mentioned Su Yingxue in front of Rong Yun!
Qin Muyan quickly covered it up, pressing Rong Yun into his arms and coaxing her to sleep.
Rong Yun fell asleep in a daze, yet somehow, she became immensely curious about this cousin that popped out of Qin Muyan’s mouth.
Qin Muyan felt a slight heaviness in his heart; it was only recently, having received plenty of news from the Great Cheng Dynasty, that his impression of Su Yingxue deepened, bringing her up involuntarily.
She was his first attachment, but this fact was inconvenient to mention in front of Rong Yun, lest she overthink it.
The imperial grandmother had cautioned him that pregnant women are prone to overthinking, and he must be careful with his words to avoid upsetting Rong Yun.
But things happened so unexpectedly, the next day Rong Yun overheard from the servants that Su Yingxue was once Qin Muyan’s fiancée, the person he loved the most.
A bit angry, she went to find Qin Muyan and did not find him in the study, but with the guidance of a palace guard, she discovered a chest.
Upon opening the chest, she found it filled with portraits of an unfamiliar woman.
The woman in the paintings was breathtakingly beautiful; Rong Yun always thought she was pretty, but looking at the portrait, she felt inferior imagining how this woman truly looked.
If the woman herself stood before her, she feared she would feel utterly ashamed!
Rong Yun’s heart grew heavier and she continued to rummage through the chest, pulling out a thick stack of letters, all neatly folded, presumably in chronological order.
Rong Yun opened one of the letters and saw Qin Muyan’s bold and rough handwriting, each stroke revealing his longing for a woman.
“Cousin, you are now the empress of the Great Cheng Dynasty, and I sincerely rejoice for you, wishing you a life of wellness and safety.”
“Cousin, I am getting married soon, don’t worry, I have a promise with you, and will surely be a good husband.”
“Cousin, she is nothing like you, but she is my wife, and I must take good care of her.”
“Cousin, in this world, no woman can compare to you, no one… can make me love her as I love you, wholeheartedly and unreservedly.”
“Cousin… why do you love your cousin so much? Who is your cousin!”
Rong Yun, panic-stricken, collapsed among a pile of portraits and letters, feeling as though she had fallen into a dried-up well, the coldness seeping out from the bottom of her heart, quickly engulfing her completely as if she had turned into a block of ice.
