Chapter 870: Chapter 868: Mu Fei Steps in to Save the Prime Minister

Wei Jue clenched his fist in salute, “Yes, I will obey the command!”

Qin Muyan went to report back to Q.in Rulie, who immediately wanted to interrogate Su Yingxue.

Qin Muyan advised him, “Imperial Brother, it’s better to wait until after you’ve met with the imperial grandmother and Zhao Hua before making any decisions. The incident of Zhao Hua falling has too many suspicious points. If Yingxue wanted to kill her, she wouldn’t need to be so foolish. With her superb medical skills, there are countless ways to kill someone without detection.”

Qin Rulie, listening to Qin Muyan, felt a headache coming on, “It seems to me that your entire heart is set on Su Yingxue, to the point where you’d wish to become a suit of armor for her to wear, impervious to sword and spear!”

Every word and deed did nothing but favor Su Yingxue.

It was simply madness.

Qin Muyan made no comment.

After all, his stance was clear, with him around, no one could harm Su Yingxue.

Shen Yu’s illness had been tormenting her all night, with the court physicians at a loss; it wasn’t until Mu Fei stepped in that Shen Yu’s life was saved.

The Empress Dowager awoke and, upon hearing the news, was so moved that she wept profusely, and awarded Mu Fei plenty of gold, silver, and jewels.

Mu Fei appeared neither arrogant nor humble, and simply said with a light smile, “The princess’s injuries are quite complex, but since I was the one who saved her, I feel obliged to see it through. I dare to ask to care for the princess until she has fully recovered.”

“There’s nothing wrong with that! With your excellent medical skills taking care of Zhao’er and ensuring her recovery, I will certainly reward you generously!”

The Empress Dowager agreed immediately.

Qin Ge also said, “Once Princess Zhao Hua has recovered, I will speak to the emperor on your behalf, bestowing upon you a title that will ensure you have no worries about food and clothing in the future.”

“I thank the princess,” Mu Fei replied.

In front of them, Mu Fei was the picture of humility.

But the more humble he appeared, the stranger Qin Muyan found him.

He approached Mu Fei and, from a height, interrogated, “Your Highness has investigated you; you come from the Ghost Market, a place full of desperados. The matter of you finding the Blue Scale Jade must be thoroughly verified. When did you learn medical skills that could save Zhao Hua?”

Mu Fei’s lips quirked at an angle, a hint of roguishness spilling forth, “Your Highness, should you not be more concerned about your cousin, Princess Zhao Hua’s condition?”

This counter-questioning left Qin Muyan quite displeased, “It’s not your place to question me! Speak, how did you come upon the Blue Scale Jade and ascertain Zhao Hua’s whereabouts? What exactly happened when Zhao Hua fell from the palace?”

“I am but a commoner devoted to serving the Great Wei Dynasty. If Your Highness harbors such doubts, it is best I no longer remain in the palace,” Mu Fei proclaimed.

Saying so, Mu Fei attempted to take his leave.

The Empress Dowager hastily called out, “Stay where you are!”

She halted Mu Fei and then turned a sharp gaze towards Qin Muyan, “Muyan, what is the meaning of this? You don’t inquire after Zhao Hua’s condition but instead question her life-saving benefactor? Are you suspecting this Mu Fei of harming Zhao’er? It was clearly that Su Yingxue who plotted against her!”

The more the Empress Dowager had previously adored Su Yingxue, the greater her disappointment was now!

“That Su Yingxue likely used her beauty to gain sympathy from me, seeking to steal Zhao’er’s identity. Such a scheming and malicious woman, yet she is the Ninth Princess Consort of the Great Cheng Dynasty, how can you be deceived by her?”

“Imperial grandmother, she would not deceive me, I assure you. Yingxue is truly not a villain; she wouldn’t harm Zhao Hua,” Qin Muyan protested.

“Enough!”

The Empress Dowager, livid with anger, exclaimed, “If you plead for Su Yingxue once more, do not come to see me, your imperial grandmother, again! Get out!”
