Chapter 113 The only thing I love is the white money
The princess laughed sarcastically and said, "Don't be ungrateful. It's your blessing that my daughter likes you. How can you say that she's making things difficult for you?
And what kind of poison did you give Prince Yunqing? Hand over the antidote immediately, and I can leave you with an intact body." She looked at Ye Chuxue with cold eyes.
Xue Qianqian watched helplessly as Ye Chuxue remained steadfast in her refusal to marry her no matter what. Her pretty face instantly twisted with resentment. She stared at Ye Chuxue intently, gritting her teeth and saying, "You're just a mere doctor, yet you have the nerve to despise this princess? Even more abominable is that you had the audacity to poison my brother. Do you really think you have a few worthless lives to squander?"
Humph, if it weren't for my sincere love for you, I would have had you cut into pieces long ago! Now, as long as you obediently help my brother detoxify, I will persuade my mother to spare your life.
As for the matter between us, this county lord sympathizes with you and gives you three days to think carefully about what to do. Don't be ungrateful! "
Yun Mushu, standing by, was as pale as paper, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead. His eyes, once gentle as jade, were now filled with a fierce look. He stared at Ye Chuxue coldly and said in a deep voice, "It seems that my cousin is indeed deeply in love with you. In this case, as long as you can cure the poison I have been poisoned with, I will be magnanimous and not argue with you. But let me be frank: if you dare to betray my cousin, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Yun Mushu then casually glanced at Yun Muheng standing beside him, and his tone softened slightly: "Fifth brother, since you are here today, I will just make things clear. Ye Xinrou has long been my woman. If you know what's good for you, hand her over quickly and don't embarrass my brother."
Yun Muheng raised his long eyebrows slightly, a look of disdain on his face, and sneered, "Brother, do you think that you can easily wipe out all the crimes committed by Ye Xinrou with just a few words? Do you really think I am a soft persimmon that can be bullied by anyone?"
Seeing that he showed no mercy to him in front of everyone, Yun Mushu could not help but feel furious. His eyes widened as he glared at Yun Muheng fiercely. He gritted his teeth and let out a low roar: "What do you want?"
Yun Muheng's lips curled up slightly, forming a smile that seemed neither smile nor laughter. He casually glanced at Ye Chuxue standing beside him, and then he spoke slowly, "My princess is the one who has suffered the most in this incident. As for how this matter will be resolved, it depends on whether the princess is willing to forgive Ye Xinrou, the culprit."
Yun Mushu was furious when he heard this, and roared furiously, "You clearly know that Ye Chuxue hates Ye Xinrou to the core, yet you are now putting forward such a condition. This is clearly deliberately making things difficult for her, and you have no sincerity in wanting to solve the problem at all!"
"Hmph, then how can you, my royal brother, be sincere at all?" Yun Muheng asked back without hesitation.
Just when the two were in a stalemate, Yun Mushu suddenly let out a shrill scream, "Ah——" He covered his head tightly with both hands, and his body uncontrollably knelt on the cold ground. His originally handsome face became distorted and hideous because of extreme pain, as if he was enduring unspeakable torture.
When the eldest princess saw his appearance, she shouted in panic: "Someone come! Someone come quickly, and ask the imperial physician to come!" Her voice was full of anxiety and fear.
At the same time, the eldest princess quickly walked towards Yun Mushu. At the same time, she instructed the nanny beside her to quickly pull him up from the ground and carefully support him as he walked step by step to the chair next to him.
Yun Mushu covered his forehead tightly with his hands, his eyebrows knitted together. His face was as pale as paper, his lips were bloodless, and he looked very weak. He said weakly, "Auntie, if I wait until the imperial physician arrives, I'm afraid my life will be in jeopardy! Hurry, go and ask Doctor Shi to save me!"
Upon hearing this, the princess turned her head with a look of indignation at Ye Chuxue standing nearby. At this moment, her heart was in turmoil as she pondered, "What evil has befallen this mansion of mine lately? First, that shameless woman, Ye Xinrou, caused such an unbearable scandal in my house, and now Prince Yunqing has been inexplicably poisoned here."
He absolutely cannot allow any mishaps to happen in my residence, otherwise how can I explain to my brother the Emperor? And I will definitely offend the Emperor's wife, and the consequences will be unimaginable!"
Thinking of this, the eldest princess showed an extremely reluctant expression on her face and curled her lips slightly.
Then, she raised her head, staring at Ye Chuxue with cold and arrogant eyes, and said in a stiff tone, "Doctor Shi, you must quickly find a way to remove the poison from Prince Yunqing. As long as you can save him, I will forgive your past actions and let you leave safely."
Ye Chuxue tilted her head slightly, a cold smile curling up at the corner of her mouth. A barely perceptible cunning glint flashed across her eyes as she slowly spoke, "It's not completely impossible for me to help King Yunqing, but... naturally, the consultation fee is essential."
The princess standing nearby heard this and her calm expression dimmed instantly. She couldn't help but curse inwardly, "That damned Doctor Shi is so evil! He already took a full 150,000 taels of silver from me for the consultation last time, and now he's still asking for more! Does he really think my princess's mansion is a scapegoat to be taken advantage of?"
Thinking of this, the princess could no longer suppress her inner anger. She glared at Ye Chuxue in front of her and said with gritted teeth, "Dr. Shi's appetite is really getting better and better! Do you really think you can live to enjoy all this money?"
Facing the princess's threats and anger, Ye Chuxue remained unmoved. Instead, she raised an eyebrow slightly, a cynical smile on her face, and said leisurely, "I don't have any special hobbies. The only thing I love is this white silver. As for whether I can live to enjoy this wealth, that's nothing for you, princess."
At this time, the eldest princess was so angry that she was shaking all over. Her beautiful eyes glared at Ye Chuxue in front of her, as if she wanted to cut the other person into pieces with her eyes.
However, even so, she had no way to deal with Ye Chuxue and could only suppress the rage in her heart. The eldest princess took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and tried to calm herself down.
After a moment, she opened her eyes again. Although her tone was still somewhat unwilling, she turned around and ordered the maid beside her, "Hurry up and go to the accounting office to withdraw 20,000 taels of silver and send it back quickly!"
Ye Chuxue's lips curled up slightly, revealing a disdainful smile as she said sarcastically, "Haha, I never thought that the life of the dignified Prince Yunqing would be worth only 20,000 taels of silver in the eyes of the eldest princess. In that case, please capture me. I really can't cure this poison!"
Upon hearing this, the princess flew into a rage, her pretty face flushing crimson. She clenched her teeth tightly and uttered a vicious remark: "I advise you to stop and not be so greedy! If you continue to be ungrateful, the consequences will be more than you can bear!"
However, Ye Chuxue didn't take the princess's threats seriously. She casually stretched out her little finger and scratched her ear. Then, with a calm expression and a steady heartbeat, she looked at the princess. She parted her red lips and said calmly but firmly, "If it's less than 100,000 taels of silver, there's no room for negotiation."
When the princess heard this, she was so angry that she trembled all over and felt like her lungs were about to explode. She could never have imagined that even at this point, he would dare to ask for a huge price of 100,000 taels of silver. He was even more greedy and shameless than a bandit!
