Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess

Chapter 262 - Hatred for No Reason

Chapter 262 Hatred for No Reason

After becoming Princess Yu, Lin Mengya had few dealings with Baili Wuchen, but the latter always went against what she did, for no reason.

“A smart cookie always acts so unreasonably?”

Lin Mengya even made an embarrassing assumption. “Baili Wuchen, maybe he only likes men?”

With that thought, she knew that Baili Wuchen had a stronger and firmer faith in Long Tianyu, which was what she was unable to understand or guess.

But Baili Wuchen betrayed Long Tianyu? It was hard for her to understand this, because the split between Baili Wuchen and Long Tianyu, should not happen so easily.

“What’s the real reason?”

“Helen of Troy! Your beauty is dangerous! Lin Mengya, one day, you would ruin His Highness! Let go of him. Lots of people are placing their hopes on him!”

Baili Wuchen was pleading, almost tearfully. But Lin Mengya looked at him and shook her head.

“Since ancient times, everyone blames a woman. If Long Tianyu really ruins his affairs for a woman, I suppose, there would be no reason to fight for him, right?”

A person was ready to die for his or her bosom friend. Lin Mengya knew this

She did not know what had happened between Baili Wuchen and Long Tianyu, and she supposed there was no need to find out.

“Lin Mengya! You will ruin him!”

Baili Wuchen was screaming now, in a deep and raving voice, and sounded like an injured beast. Lin Mengya left. In fact, she felt regret for him, because Baili Wuchen was an intelligent man, and it would be difficult to find someone as smart as he was.

In a while, she came to the room where her teacher was. Before she entered it, an energetic bawling came into her ears.

“You idiot! How dare you ruin my herbs! Idiot! Idiot!”

After taking Lin Mengya as his student, Baili Rui found something meaningful to do, and became more energetic than before.

“Teacher, your bawling makes you seem very unfriendly.”

Lin Mengya came into the room and teased him.

Baili Rui, dressed in coarse clothes, looked thinner but vigorous. His gray hair was neatly tied back.

“Little girl! You finally remembered to come and see me! Come, help me with these herbs!”

It was only Baili Rui, in Prince Yu’s Mansion, who dared to treat Lin Mengya, in such a rude manner.

“Hey, old man, you’re so aggressive. Nobody will take care of you in future!”

Lin Mengya rolled up her sleeves and took the jade knife from Baili Rui. She began to cut up the herbs, which had already matured in the garden pots.

“You know what happened to Wuchen, don’t you?”

Baili Rui asked her suddenly. Lin Mengya stopped for a second, and many thoughts came into her mind. Eventually, she nodded and replied.

“I just came back from his cell. He looks well and complete, but not as energetic as before.”

Guards told her that Baili Rui, as the uncle of Baili Wuchen, had not even visited him once.

No matter how many times Baili Wuchen pleaded, Baili Rui still refused to see him. But his question revealed his concern for Baili Wuchen, much more than what he showed outwardly.

“Wuchen is a good man, but he’s too self-willed. He always disrespects you, Mengya, I know. But my elder brother has only one son. I brought him up so it’s my fault if he did something wrong. If possible, could you spare him, for my sake?”

Lin Mengya fell silent. She did not foresee that Baili Rui would plead for someone, in such a cautious way.

His tone sounded as if he was prepared to kneel. Beneath his words, was a kind heart, which Baili Wuchen failed to understand.

She pondered for a moment, and eventually nodded.

She knew that Long Tianyu, would not kill Baili Wuchen, and that was why he imprisoned him in the dungeon.

“That’s good.”

Baili Rui always laughed in a confident and crazy way, which never made his increasingly wrinkled face, tired. Instead, a beaming smile appeared on his face, after Lin Mengya nodded, and nearly blinded her.

“Teacher indeed cares about Baili Wuchen.”

“Teacher, let’s leave Baili Wuche for a moment. Oh, here are some of the new medicine to be made. I’ve prepared it already. The dosage and prescription. Please check whether there is something that needs to be improved?”

Lin Mengya was experimenting on Radar the other day, and found something new.

She found that whenever she thought about poisons or symptoms of being poisoned, Radar would then formulate the best detoxification prescription.

But it was still in the exploration stage, thus, the prescription would not be perfect.

“You little girl, I know, you would not come and see me unless there’s a need. Fine, let me have a look.”

Lin Mengya immediately took the prescription from her sleeves.

There were numerous medicines in it. Baili Rui might have found it hard to understand, when he read those strange medicines, if he had not studied medicine for many years.

“It looks good. Drug properties have been enhanced, and some are better than before. But do you know what is missing in your prescription?”

When it came to poison, Baili Rui naturally revealed an unrivaled confidence.

“Please let me know, teacher.”

Baili Rui looked at Lin Mengya and felt satisfied. God treated him well, and gave him such a brilliant student. He would like to teach her for his whole life.

“You know, for the victim of poison, his or her body would be affected. Most of the poisons would destroy their bodies. So you need to know the patient’s health condition, and then make the prescription, accordingly. Sometimes, a cure may be a poison. “It would give the opposite effect if the patient cannot withstand the drug. Do you understand?”

Lin Mengya nodded. Baili Rui was right, because Radar made the best proportion, according to drug properties, but it did not take the patients’ health conditions, into consideration.

“Good, I see now.”

That might be why modern medicine could never replace traditional Chinese medicine.

But she would combine both of them together, under the teaching of Baili Rui.

“Mr. Baili, Princess Yu.”

A thin figure appeared in front of Lin Mengya.

The person, who dressed herself in silk and satin before, wore simple coarse clothes, now. She seemed as if she had gone through lots of changes in life, and was not arrogant as before.

There was no show of pride in her eyes.

“You are here. How’s your condition?”

Lin Mengya did not stop what she was doing. She did not need to pretend to be friendly. in the presence of Madame Wang.

“I won’t die. Mr. Baili has told me everything. She died. She deserved it.”

Her voice carried a trace of icy resentment.

Lin Mengya asked Baili Rui to tell Madame Wang about everything Miss Wang had done. Madame, who barely survived, was now a different person.

Lin Mengya saved her life, but killed her daughter. Her feeling was subtle.

“I’m glad you are not taking it to heart. Since you have recovered, there are two choices. One is to stay with me. I know you come from a good family, and I need a capable manager now. And the other one is to return to your home. That might be a little difficult, because you’re a dead woman, in their eyes.”

Lin Mengya did not want to force others. After all, everyone was an adult, and had a right to make their choice.

And she also did not want to use her favor to force Madame Wang to do something for her. She did not want anyone to do anything unwillingly.

“I want to go back, please help me, Your Highness. My parents will never allow anyone to bully me. Don’t worry, Your Highness.”

After a period of silence, Madame Wang made the decision.

It made sense after Lin Mengya thought about it. Madame Wang was harboring a deep hatred. She came from a powerful, overwhelming family. If her parents knew what happened to their precious daughter...

They would teach Minister Wang a good lesson.

“Alright, I see. Guard, show Madame Wang out.”

Long Tianyu was bound to help her, because the one behind Minister Wang, was the Crown Prince. Anything which would make the Crown Prince suffer, would be welcomed by Long Tianyu.

Madame was a spy. She would be of great help to Lin Mengya, if she made good use of her.

“You’re becoming more cunning. You know she would choose to return, for revenge. I suppose, there will be no more peace in the Wang family.”

It was rare that Baili Rui made fun of her. Too many plots took place in the royal family. Lin Mengya was clever, but it would be a disaster if she lost her mind.

“Don’t worry, teacher. Everyone has the right to choose their own life. If Madame Wang chose to stay with me, as a manager, I will also guarantee a safe life for her. She did not let go of those things, so I am just going with the flow.”

Lin Mengya helped him with all the herbs, and learned a lot from him.

She was busy with all the happenings in the Palace, and she wanted to make sure her preparations were well done.

After a second of thought, Lin Mengya finally gave up the idea of telling Baili Rui about her assumption. She should not leak information about the royal family.

“Master, your family has sent someone here, and he is waiting in the living room.”
