Chapter 570: Pleasing Her Majesty (25)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
This rebellion was a joke. Nothing happened to the people in the palace and the people that rebelled were the ones who ran away pitifully.
Ye Mochen ran away before Pri Minister Zhou arrived. Ning Furong was taken away by ng Liang and all that was left was a ss to be cleared.
The plague was still spreading. Ming Shu couldn’t do anything about it. She was not a royal physician.
Pri Minister Zhou was busy wiping out Ning Furong’s power and preventing Ye Mochen from attacking them again. Also, he needed to urge the royal physician to quickly co up with a redy for the plague.
He was so busy, he was ntally and physically exhausted.
He wanted to go back and farm. He didn’t want to be the pri minister anymore. Your Majesty, can we change to soone else!
Of course, based on the current situation, Pri Minister Zhou couldn’t just flick his sleeve and resign from his position. Besides angering officials, pampering the royal concubine, and eating snacks, Ming Shu, the empress, never did anything at all.
“Your Majesty...”
Lianxin ran over hurriedly. “Your Highness, the royal concubine has disappeared.”
Ming Shu swallowed the golden milk crisp in her mouth. “Disappeared? Did he run away?”
Lianxin felt scared and replied softly, “The people from Xianyu Palace ca to report just now. They say that the royal concubine told them that they didn’t need to attend to him last night. When they went to find him this morning, he was gone.”
“That ans that he ran away.” He has the guts to run away again.
Ever since Junjue woke up after that day, there was sothing wrong with his mood. Did he got frightened that day?
It shouldn’t be like this...
Isn’t that idiot really bold?
Ming Shu looked at Lianxin. “What are you standing there for? Go and find him. Are you waiting to collect his corpse?”
Lianxin: “...”
By rights, it was impossible for a weak boy toy like Junjue to get out of the palace. However, he couldn’t be found anywhere in the palace grounds.
Ming Shu was not surprised at all. However, Lianxin couldn’t keep her composure. How could a human just disappear like this under the noses of so many people?
Since they couldn’t find him, Ming Shu could only go and search for him herself.
“Your Majesty, the plague is spreading outside the palace. You can’t go out.”
Before Ming Shu could step out of the palace gate, Lianxin and Pri Minister Zhou stopped her.
No matter what, they didn’t allow Ming Shu to go out.
In the end, Ming Shu had to order people to tie them up before she managed to leave the palace.
However, where will I go to find Junjue? Ming Shu stood in the street and felt a bit lost.
The street was deserted. There was almost no one in sight. The weather was also really warm and the air was filled with a pungent sll. It made people feel like vomiting.
Ming Shu asked the people that followed her to spread out and communicate through the flare guns if they found him. Then, she continued walking forward aimlessly.
“Give us so food.”
A dirty refugee appeared suddenly. Ming Shu took a few steps back in fear and just managed to dodge the refugee’s hands.
“Give so food...” The refugee’s eyes were gray and he repeated the words like a robot.
Ming Shu saw the soone poking his head out from the alley behind him.
There was not much food on Ming Shu. She had finished most of the food she brought from the palace.
Are these people trying to steal from ?
Ming Shu felt that there was a possibility. She stepped back... and the next second, she ran away.
“F**k, she is running away!
“Chase her!”
Noises rang out from behind her and a few people ca out from the alley. They chased after her with excited expressions on their faces.
Why are they chasing !
I do not have ergency syrup!
Stop chasing !
In front of Ming Shu was a deadend. She climbed up the wall agilely. The wall was a bit high and the person who chased her didn’t know how to climb walls. Hence, he just stood below and looked up at her.
“Climb up.” Ming Shu smiled brightly and provoked him. She looked really irritating.
The person below was so angry he started shouting and kicking the wall.
At that mont, one of them grabbed soone else and they stepped on another person’s shoulder. They were trying to make a human ladder.
“What!”
Ming Shu was frightened by how clever these refugees were and imdiately jumped down the wall. She ran past two courtyards that were linked. She only stopped running after she confird that there were no refugees chasing her.
Ming Shu looked at the four-courtyard house she was standing in and prepared to leave.
“Wuwuwu...”
A faint sound ca from the side. Ming Shu didn’t want to be bothered by it at first but when she heard a familiar voice, she turned around and went back. She stood in front of a room.
The light in the room was dim.
A lady was tied to a chair. Her hair was ssy and there were dried bloodstains on her forehead. There were also blood droplets on her face and she looked really pitiful.
Standing beside the girl was Ning Furong.
ng Liang sat on the other side of the room and watched the lady and Ning Furong indifferently.
Ning Furong grabbed the lady’s chin and forced her to raise her head. Her smile was hideous and her eyes were filled with jealousy and hatred. “Look, he didn’t co save you. He doesn’t care about you.”
The lady was barely breathing. She didn’t look at her at all. She seed numb.
Ning Furong saw her expression and got angry. She slapped the lady. “Bitch, I’m talking to you. Are you deaf? Don’t you talk a lot in front of him?”
The lady’s face turned red imdiately and blood seeped out from her mouth corners. Ning Furong really slapped her with a lot of force.
“Are you able to seduce people in bed very well? Hmm? You bitch...”
Ning Furong scolded while slapping the lady. She only stopped after the lady’s face was really swollen.
“Don’t co over—”
The lady suddenly scread.
Ning Furong had found two people from sowhere. They had pustules all over them and they looked really disgusting.
These were people who were infected with the plague.
Ning Furong sneered at the screaming lady. “She is yours. Treat her well.”
Let see if Ye Mochen will still like her after she’s infected with the plague.
The two people walked over to the lady. The pungent sll from their bodies caused the lady to choked. She couldn’t breathe properly. I don’t want... don’t co over... help...
Sotis, when you are really frightened, you will not be able to make a sound. This was what the lady was experiencing.
She wanted to scream but no sound ca out.
She could only watch as a hand filled with pustules grabbed her shoulder and touched her face...
Cila—
The sound of clothes tearing apart.
ng Liang couldn’t watch anymore and left the room. The mont he looked up, he saw Ming Shu.
He frowned. “Why are you here?”
“I ca to find you, General ng.” Ming Shu smiled. “You are really difficult to find.”
ng Liang looked at her vigilantly. He grabbed his sword. “How did you know that I was here?”
“I am the empress. What do I not know?” I was just running around aimlessly. Who knew that I’d find you two in such a situation. This is fate. I am fated to gain so Hatred Points from you two. I can’t do anything about this fate, either.
“Who are you talking to...”
Ning Furong heard their voices and stepped out of the room. The rest of her words died in her throat. Her eyes widened as though seeing Ming Shu was sothing unbelievable.
