Ms. Doctor Divine

Chapter 1751 - 1751 Early Plan 1

1751 Early Plan 1

“Although the Saint Divine Land is relatively more open-minded compared to the other three countries, many women here still prioritize marrying into nobility as a means to elevate their social status,” Gu Chaoyan commented.

“…”

“In my life, there are few individuals whom I truly admire, and you happen to be one of them,” Gu Chaoyan continued, smiling warmly. “That’s why I wanted to meet you.”

Liu Qingqing was taken aback by the Queen’s words, but a smile soon graced her face.

The Queen’s sentiment resonated with her own thoughts.

Growing up in a military camp under her father’s care, Liu Qingqing had encountered mostly delicate and helpless girls. However, the Queen stood out as one of the few women she genuinely admired.

Zhou Huaijin noticed the positive change in her demeanor.

Deciding to give the ladies some time to chat, he excused himself and made his way to attend to other matters.

Zhou Huaijin exited the inner chamber, with Sword One following closely behind.

She followed Zhou Huaijin for a while until he finally halted. “What is it that you wish to tell me?” he inquired.

Sword One, a dedicated hidden guard who had grown up under the tutelage of the Shadow Door, had always been fiercely loyal to both the Shadow Door and Zhou Huaijin. However, since she started working for Gu Chaoyan, her devotion had shifted towards Chaoyan. She had even disregarded Zhou Huaijin and chose to accompany Chaoyan instead. Thus, her decision to follow Zhou Huaijin today indicated that she had something important to convey.

Sword One surveyed their surroundings cautiously, ensuring no one was within earshot. With a perplexed expression, she spoke, “Mr. Head, on the night of your wedding when Elder Miss fell ill, the City Lord of Snow Territory infiltrated Fengxian Palace. Although I paid little attention to them while Elder Miss was suffering, I carefully observed their reactions. If his intention had been to marry Phoenix Girl, he would have intervened during the wedding ceremony itself rather than coming to Fengxian Palace to stop you.”

” “…”

“What is more, after he knew what happened inside the chamber, he left as if he had confirmed about something.”

“….”

“I believe that maybe, the poison incident has something to do with them.”

“….”

“Maybe they drugged her. Or maybe they know the truth behind this incident.”

“….”

“Ms. Lingyun mentioned that Elder Miss would require the assistance of a skilled individual for a thorough examination,” Sword One disclosed after pondering for a moment.

As Zhou Huaijin recalled the events of that fateful night when Ouyang Mingjing intruded, he realized that he had been so preoccupied with Gu Chaoyan that he paid little attention to Ouyang Mingjing’s intentions or appearance. Sword One’s reminder shed new light on the situation, making it all the more plausible.

“Very well,” Zhou Huaijin replied, instructing Sword One to depart before rushing off himself. Meanwhile, Sword One returned to attend to Elder Miss.

Back at the inn, in their room, Ouyang Mingjing, the Snow Territory Elder Men, and Longqing gathered together. They had achieved their objectives during their infiltration of Fengxian Palace and had returned to their lodgings after successfully halting the proceedings.

“City Lord, what shall we do now? We do not endorse any coronation ceremony or wedding customs within the Saint Divine Land. However, as long as they haven’t consummated their marriage, she remains eligible to be your wife. It appears that due to the events of last night, they were unable to take that final step,”

” “…”

“But judging from how Pheonix Girl is doing, we better make a plan and bring her back to Snow Territory as soon as possible, or…”
