Her Power and Favor Span the World

Chapter 76

Yuan Qingling naturally did not know what he was thinking. She only thought that he would not lose his conscience. On the surface, marrying Chu Mingyang would be advantageous for him in every way and harmful in no way. However, he was unwilling to ruin Chu Mingyang's life. So he would rather give up such a big advantage.

He was not quite a scumbag, barely qualifying as a domestic abuser.

"Reconciliation, okay?" Yuwen Hao looked at her and asked.

His tone was very good, without any domineering or superiority. Yuan Qingling looked at him, with sincerity in her eyes.

She was now besieged on all sides. There was really no need to engage in infighting with Yuwen Hao. She held her head and tried her best to see him clearly. She said solemnly, "Reconciliation is possible, but I have conditions."

"Speak!" Yuwen Hao was very straightforward.

"First, still that sentence, you can't beat me."

"Agreed!"

"Second, you can no longer use me as a shield for not taking a concubine, if the marriage must be brought up again."

Yuwen Hao thought for a moment, "Agreed!"

"Third, don't interfere too much with my freedom."

"That's natural too." He didn't intend to interfere with her to begin with, and didn't even want to take care of her before.

"Fourth, if there is a chance, please divorce me. Let's part ways and live happily." Yuan Qingling said sincerely.

Yuwen Hao slowly nodded, "Rest assured, that is what this king thinks too."

"Fifth..."

He frowned, "Are you done? If not, then no reconciliation."

"The last one," Yuan Qingling quickly said. "The matter of my medicine box, you cannot mention it to anyone."

Yuwen Hao leaned in a little closer. "If you want this king to keep it confidential, it is equivalent to making this king take risks for you. In that case, you must tell this king the origin, use, and why it can change size."

Yuan Qingling had already fabricated a story in her mind. Hearing him say this, she said, "I'm also very confused about this medicine box. Do you still remember that I was caned by you because of Huoge'er? I fainted at that time and had a dream. In the dream, someone claiming to be the Ghost Doctor taught me medical skills. At that time, I felt it was absurd. But when I woke up, there was a medicine box next to me. When I reached out and picked it up, the medicine box became smaller. Up until now, it's as if it were a dream to me."

In ancient times, she had also inquired about it. The most famous divine doctor on the entire continent was the legendary Ghost Doctor. He was not from Northern Tang and was said to have died a long time ago. However, stories about the Ghost Doctor were circulated in all five kingdoms.

Sure enough, when Yuwen Hao heard her say this, he couldn't help but believe it a little, because he had heard of the Ghost Doctor before, and also knew that the Ghost Doctor was good at using needles, which should be the unique needles in Yuan Qingling's medicine box.

He believed it was also based on facts, because he had investigated and confirmed that Yuan Qingling did not actually understand medicine, and had not gone out in recent days either. Her change happened after the Huoge'er incident.

In addition, she could have fabricated many kinds of lies. This Ghost Doctor story sounded absurd and unbelievable. She had no reason to make up something like this.

It seemed to be the truth.

He said, "This medicine box is empty. Have you used up all the medicine in it?"

Yuan Qingling was surprised. "Empty?"

She immediately took out the medicine box and opened it. It was stuffed full of all kinds of medicine. "No ah."

Yuwen Hao's eyeballs nearly popped out. He had just seen with his own eyes that the medicine box was empty.

After a long time, he raised his shocked face and said, "Yuan Qingling, are you a ghost?"

Yuan Qingling had also figured out the medicine box these past few days. The medicine box changed according to her actual situation or what she thought, so to speak it was controlled by her will.

Her death in the modern times was because she had injected herself with a brain-enhancing drug she had developed.

When the drug was first developed, it was injected into monkeys. It was discovered that the monkeys could actually understand human speech. But when further researching, the monkey got drunk after secretly drinking the foreign wine given by the CEO, and ran out to get hit by a car and died.

She boldly hypothesized that her brain had been enhanced. As for why it later formed soul transmigration or idea escape after enhancement, further research was still needed.

Of course, there were no conditions to research now, let alone time to care about it. After all, the current situation was quite complicated, a matter of life and death.

The shock of the medicine box caused the disputes between the two to temporarily cease fire.

Anyway, Prince Chu's Residence was unprecedentedly harmonious this night, because for the first time, the couple had dinner together.

While it was peaceful and joyful here, there was a bit of a gunpowder smell at the Chu's residence.

Today, Princess Qi returned to her maiden home. Prince Qi had official business to attend to and did not accompany her. Premier Chu returned early and had people summon Princess Qi, who was chatting with her grandmother, to the study.

As soon as Chu Mingcui entered the study, Premier Chu sternly asked, "The matter of the Retired Emperor being poisoned, what exactly happened?"

Chu Mingcui was shocked. "Grandfather, how would your granddaughter know about this?"

"You don't know?" Premier Chu's eyes were fierce.

Chu Mingcui thought for a moment. "Was it Prince Ji?"

"Prince Ji is not a fool. Would he make a move against the Retired Emperor at such a critical juncture?" Premier Chu stared at Chu Mingcui. "Were you hiding something from me and making small moves behind my back?"

Chu Mingcui shook her head innocently. "Everything this granddaughter has done is according to grandfather's instructions. There is absolutely no concealment from grandfather."

Premier Chu's voice was icy cold. "Then what about Xi Mama? Why did she obey your order to send Princess Chu's nanzhu to the Empress?"

Chu Mingcui had already been scolded by the Empress for this matter once. Thinking that it was the Empress who had informed on her again this time, she had prepared her remarks and said, "This was your granddaughter's recklessness. I originally wanted to create some discord between Noble Consort Xian and Princess Chu, but I didn't expect it would be relayed to His Majesty by my aunt."

"Do you think it was your aunt who told me?" Premier Chu's voice contained anger. "Yesterday I went to the palace and was scolded by His Majesty, who told me to come back and discipline you. Do you think it was your aunt who informed me?"

Chu Mingcui's heart sank. "His Majesty is angry?"

"Xi Mama would not take special care of you many times. You threatened her, yes or no?"

Chu Mingcui shook her head. "Really not. How could your granddaughter dare threaten someone from Qian Kun Palace?"

Premier Chu sneered coldly. "You are not reckless. You know Xi Mama's relationship with me. You knew she would help you this time. Moreover, the poisoning in Qian Kun Palace was also done under your direction."

Chu Mingcui turned pale with fright. "No, how is that possible? Why would your granddaughter do that?"

Premier Chu stared at her. "You'd better confess the truth. I can help you get this position of Princess Qi. I can also pull you down from it. You'd better not challenge my patience."

Chu Mingcui was still calm. "Grandfather, listen to me..."

"Speak!" Premier Chu roared, frightening Chu Mingcui so much that she immediately kneeled down.
