On Our Wedding Night, I Discovered the Crown Prince's Hidden Illness Chapter 477: 477: Smooth Talker

Chapter 477: Chapter 477: Smooth Talker

Ling Lang lifted his feet to continue toward the main hall but was stopped just before crossing the threshold.

“We have indeed co by the order of the Pavilion Master. May I ask why you are stopping us?” Ruofeng bellowed.

At this mont, Chun Liu and Dong Yan ca out.

“The two of you claim to be here by the order of the Pavilion Master. Where is the order from the Pavilion Master?” Chun Liu glanced indifferently at Ruofeng and finally fixed her gaze on Ling Lang, “You, uncle, tell us.”

“Uncle?” Ling Lang fud, his beard askew, “Do I look that old?”

“Not old?” Chun Liu asked back.

“I won’t lower myself to argue with a woman!” Ling Lang cut to the chase, “The Linqing Pavilion Master is none other than Leng Yu Yan, and Leng Yu Yan is the Princess Zhenbei of Beilan Commandery. It was she who invited the two of us here to request the four young ladies to enter the capital city.”

Hearing this, Chun Liu and Dong Yan exchanged glances, their expressions remaining calm and not betraying any panic.

“The uncle here is quite the joker. Everyone in the world knows that our Linqing Pavilion Master is an old man with white beard. How could he have beco the Princess of Zhenbei?” Chun Liu scoffed, “Guards, throw these two out of the mountain!”

Imdiately, Pavilion mbers stepped forward and bound Ling Lang and Ruofeng.

Ruofeng shouted loudly, “What Mr. Ling said is true. The Commandery Princess called us to invite the four of you, with the intention of having you enter the capital.”

Dong Yan raised her hand, “Eject them from Linqing Pavilion’s territory!”

Ling Lang turned his head to Ruofeng and said, “Quick, take out the robe from His Highness!”

Ruofeng roared, “Are you blind? My hands are tied behind my back; how can I take it out?”

Ling Lang urged, “The Crown Prince and the Princess Beilan are besotted with each other, and their grand wedding is imminent. Therefore, they commanded us to co here to invite you four down the mountain.”

Ruofeng also hurriedly added, “The robe is in the bundle on my back. The bamboo leaves embroidered on it were done by the Commandery Princess for His Highness, and you will recognize them as her handiwork at once.”

Just then, Xia Tao and Qiubo, alerted by the noise, also ca out.

Qiubo, with hands on her hips, told the Pavilion mbers, “What are you waiting for? Throw these two relentless liars down the mountain!”

“Yes!” the Pavilion mbers responded, escorting Ling Lang and Ruofeng out of the main hall.

Once they were gone, Chun Liu, Xia Tao, Qiubo, and Dong Yan finally showed signs of alarm.

“What do we do, has the Pavilion Master’s identity been exposed?” Xia Tao whispered.

Chun Liu analyzed, “These n are from the Crown Prince, not from the Commandery Princess. If the Commandery Princess had truly sent soone, she would never rely solely on the Crown Prince’s people.”

“Dong Yan is right!” Dong Yan nodded in agreent, “Don’t forget, the Pavilion Master once said that in her absence, if anyone inquires, we are to say that the Pavilion Master is an old man with a white beard.”

Xia Tao followed, “Right, without the Pavilion Master’s permission, no one in Linqing Pavilion can call the Pavilion Master by her na.”

Qiubo frowned, “Could the Crown Prince already be aware of the Pavilion Master’s identity?”

Chun Liu concluded, “It seems to that the Crown Prince has guessed the identity of the Commandery Princess as the Pavilion Master, but he is not completely certain, which is why he sent people over.”

Ling Lang and Ruofeng were pushed down the mountain by Pavilion mbers.

Luckily, their martial abilities prevented them from actually falling off the cliff.

Ruofeng, clinging to so vines, said to the swaying Ling Lang beside him, “Now you’ve seen how ruthless those four demons can be, haven’t you?”

Ling Lang laughed, “If you ask , those four girls are still just young girls at heart, nothing more.”

“How can you still be in the mood to laugh?” said Ruofeng, as his stomach suddenly growled loudly.

“If they really wanted to kill us, why would they choose a place so abundant with vines to push us off?” Ling Lang said with a smile, “Let’s climb back up, speak so good words, fill our stomachs for today, and then casually coax them into going to the capital.”

Ruofeng tip-toed on the rocky wall, leaping up with a push.

Shortly after, Ling Lang followed suit.

Once both had steadied their footing, they found Spring, Sumr, Autumn, and Winter staring intently at them.

Ruofeng smiled ingratiatingly, “Ladies, it was indeed the Commandery Princess who invited us here. Our stomachs are empty now; could you give us sothing to eat?”

“If you want food, then tell the truth,” Qiubo raised an eyebrow and twirled her wrist, clearly suggesting she’d push them off if they didn’t speak honestly.

Just as Ruofeng was about to speak, Ling Lang pulled at him, “Let !”

“It’s like this, ladies. The Crown Prince and the Commandery Princess are about to marry, but it’s also true that the Crown Prince has beco blind and weak. Last ti, the Commandery Princess personally picked the dicine for treating the eye disease, and this ti she sent us here for two reasons: firstly, to ask you ladies to help pick more dicine for the eye disease and secondly, to escort you ladies to the capital.”

Ling Lang spoke while carefully observing the expressions of Spring, Sumr, Autumn, and Winter.

Knowing he had sowhat persuaded them, he added, “The Commandery Princess once said that the Four Guardians are the most capable people by her side. Since she can’t co in person to pick the dicine, she had to entrust it to you.”

Xia Tao laughed, “Uncle, you should’ve said so earlier. We four are skilled at picking herbs; even Miao Zhu can’t manage what we can.”

Upon hearing this, Chun Liu pulled her back.

Ling Lang nodded repeatedly, “Yes, of course!”

Chun Liu sighed, “Enough, serve the al.”

Ruofeng secretly gave Ling Lang a thumbs-up, which Dong Yan noticed.

“In reality, you’re not here by the Commandery Princess’s request but by the Crown Prince’s order,” Dong Yan stated plainly. “After you eat, just head back to the capital and do not linger on Linqing Pavilion’s turf.”

“Why are you rushing us off instead of going to the capital with us?” Ruofeng asked.

Ling Lang also inquired, “The Commandery Princess is the Pavilion Master; why keep this hidden? Could one of you enlighten ?”

“The Crown Prince has always been seeking the Divine Doctor, but currently, he’s not the only one looking,” Chun Liu asked solemnly. “Do you know how many in the Tian Family are searching?”

At that, Ling Lang heaved a deep sigh.

Like the Emperor, for instance, who was searching for the Divine Doctor in pursuit of longevity.

If the Emperor discovered that the Divine Doctor was none other than Princess Beilan, wouldn’t he demand she concoct elixirs daily?

And who, from ancient tis to the present, has truly attained longevity?

If the Emperor cannot achieve it and becos enraged with sha, that would an a death sentence.

Take Prince Xian, who was also seeking the Divine Doctor to restore sothing that had been lost.

Can a eunuch really grow it back?

Princess Beilan belongs to the Crown Prince; how could she treat Prince Xian’s ailnt?

Not long after, everyone moved to the dining room.

During the al, Ling Lang and Ruofeng ate while pondering how to bring the four ladies back with them.

Suddenly, Ling Lang had an inspiration and spoke, “What you ladies don’t know is that our Crown Prince has a secret illness, a certain kind of dysfunction that requires dicinal herbs from Linqing Pavilion.”

He knew the Crown Prince had no secret illness.

But since everyone else around the Crown Prince believed he was impotent, he had no choice but to use this as an excuse.

Ruofeng hastily echoed, “Right, right, right, the Commandery Princess’s intention is for you ladies not only to bring back the dicine for treating the eye disease but also to pick so herbs for treating that dysfunction.”

“Please rest assured, we naturally won’t divulge the Commandery Princess’s identity as the Divine Doctor, so that proper dicines can be sought for the Crown Prince’s afflictions,” Ling Lang said with a smile. “The Commandery Princess and His Highness’s grand wedding is imminent. We kindly request the ladies agree!”
