The Miraculous Doctor and Poisonous Princess

Chapter 15: Starting to Shield Already?

With the words "This is the edict!", the tone took eighteen turns, like singing. Bai Heran shuddered involuntarily and looked at Jiang Yue a few more times. After all, it was the first time she had seen an eunuch in both her previous and current lives, which was quite novel.

Jiang Yue glanced at the attire of the people around and then at the only distinctively different young girl opposite. He knew that it was most likely Bai Heran herself. However, seeing that the other party was only looking at him without responding, he quickly reminded, "Second Miss, what are you still standing there for? Come and receive the edict and express your gratitude!"

Bai Heran shook her head, "I can't receive it. I'm about to die. I can't bear the kindness of the emperor and His Highness the Tenth Prince. Please tell His Highness that he should choose another suitable lady!"

"Huh?" Jiang Yue didn't understand, "What do you mean?"

Bai Heran explained to him, "Originally, it was thought that I was dead, so my father proposed a posthumous marriage to the emperor. But unexpectedly, I'm still alive. This is a major crime of deceiving the monarch. To avoid implicating the entire Bai family, my father is preparing to execute me." After saying that, she glanced at Bai Xingyan's claw-like hand and grinned, making a very frightened expression.

Jiang Yue was immediately anxious and yelled out, "What did you say?" Then he pointed at Bai Heran and asked Bai Xingyan, "Duke Wen Guo, you want to execute her?"

At this moment, Bai Xingyan changed his mind. Since such an imperial edict had been issued, it indicated that the emperor had no intention of pursuing the Bai family's crime of deceiving the monarch. Not only did he not pursue it, but he also wanted to facilitate this marriage. In this way, Bai Heran had value to be exploited. Marrying the emperor's most beloved Tenth Prince was a great thing for their Wen Guo Gong Mansion. So he denied it vehemently, "How could there be such an absurd thing? A Ran has misunderstood."

Bai Heran turned to him and asked, "You're not going to kill me?"

Bai Xingyan frowned, feeling annoyed in his heart. He didn't answer this question but only urged her, "Quickly receive the edict and express your gratitude!"

"Oh, you say you won't kill me just like that?" Bai Heran was not happy. Just now, he was about to strangle her to death, and now he said he wouldn't kill her just like that? It couldn't be that easy.

"What do you mean?" Bai Xingyan was furious.

She shrugged and snorted lightly, "It doesn't mean much. I just feel uncomfortable that I can't decide whether I live or die, and I can't even decide whether I get married or not. So I just want to have a say this time." She looked at Jiang Yue opposite and pursed her lips, "Thank His Highness the Tenth Prince for his favor, but I don't know him. I won't marry!"

"How dare you!" Bai Xingyan was so shocked that he almost slapped this daughter to death, "You insolent thing! This is an imperial edict. How can you say you won't marry just like that?"

The Bai family members were also shocked one after another. They looked at Bai Heran as if she were a fool, wondering if raising this second miss outside for a few years had made her stupid?

Bai Heran was determined to shock people with her words. Before the shock of this round had passed, they heard her say again, "Whoever wants to marry can marry. If I were really dead, I couldn't care less. But as long as I'm alive, no one can control my marriage."

As she spoke, a cold gaze pierced Bai Xingyan. With just one glance, Bai Xingyan subconsciously took a few steps back in shock. The feeling that this daughter was different from before came over him again. At this moment, Bai Heran not only brought him a sense of strangeness but also an inerasable trace of fear. When he came to his senses again, Bai Heran, who had just been standing beside him, had already left. She was just wandering in the mansion garden alone, wearing a large robe with ice chips, like a wandering spirit. His fear grew even stronger. In order to dispel that inexplicable fear, he simply pointed at Bai Heran's back as she walked further and further away and cursed loudly - "You uneducated thing! You ungrateful little beast!"

Bai Huayan also chimed in, "You little b*tch without a mother's upbringing!"

Unexpectedly, this curse made Jiang Yue furious. He screamed out, "How dare you! How dare you insult the Zun Wang Consort? Are you Bai family members crazy?"

Bai Xingyan trembled with fear and quickly explained, "Eunuch, she is disobeying the imperial edict..."

"That's also a matter between His Highness and the consort. Why are you making a fuss?"

The Bai family members were all confused. This person hadn't even been married back yet, and they hadn't even met. She had already become the consort? And they had already started to shield her?

Bai Xingyan tried his best to persuade, "Your Highness the Tenth Prince can't marry such a woman!"

Jiang Yue's face looked even worse, "Duke Wen Guo, when did His Highness the Tenth Prince's marriage become something for you to decide? The affairs of the imperial family are decided by the emperor. Only the emperor can say who can be married and who can't. What do you mean by this? Could it be that the Wen Guo Gong Mansion also wants to make decisions for the emperor?"
