Chapter 259: Chapter 259: People getting married should start preparing seriously

Song Qiyun feigned a moment of stunned reaction.

“Does Imperial Uncle mean to say that Qing Nanzun is talking nonsense?”

Emperor Donggao nodded.

“I’ve read the investigative reports you sent concerning the major incidents in Yanjing. While it’s true that Miss Qi Yue is indeed extraordinary, the idea that her destiny is so significant she could unite the four countries is, to my mind, highly dubious.”

“But after all, she is the daughter of the Great General, exceedingly astute, with Innate Divine Strength, and also an expert in medicine, quite remarkable. Are you truly not concerned, Imperial Uncle?”

“Concerned about what? What can a girl do?” Emperor Donggao laughed and teased Song Qiyun with a glance.

...

“Even you, at such a young age, are being foolish. To speak of unifying the four countries, there was someone whose reputation surpassed that of Miss Qi Yue back in the day!”

Seeing a puzzled expression on Song Qiyun’s face, Emperor Donggao continued, “Didn’t the common people also spread rumors claiming the Fox King was so incredibly clever he could unify the four countries? That talk has been going on for decades now, yet look at your Fox King Uncle, isn’t he just a Prince?”

“If you ask me, miss Qi Yue is nothing to worry about. You, however, should focus your energy on those who emptied the Imperial City. Those people possess the ability to shift the fortunes of heaven and earth; if they were to serve Donggao, unifying the four countries wouldn’t be out of the question.”

Upon hearing this, Song Qiyun quickly responded, “Imperial Uncle, I have new information regarding this matter. The ones who emptied the Imperial City are likely the Guyang bandits.”

“The Guyang bandits?”

“Yes, I have received word that in recent years there have been several incidents of households in Beiyuan being emptied, and according to the investigations by disreputable sources in Beiyuan, all these deeds were carried out by the Guyang bandits.”

Then he recited everything about the Guyang bandits’ ancestry for eighteen generations, which made Emperor Donggao’s eyes light up with interest.

“Yun’er, you must find these people for me.”

“Yes, Imperial Uncle.”

“Go now, you are about to be married. Prepare well for it. In a little while, when the Beiyuan Delegation arrives, you will be responsible for receiving them.”

“Thank you, Imperial Uncle.” Song Qiyun expressed his gratitude with a joyous bow, paying great respect.

But soon, as if remembering something, his expression turned gloomy.

Noticing the strangeness, Emperor Donggao asked, “What’s the matter now?”

Song Qiyun feigned coming back to his senses and shook his head repeatedly.

“I am just worried about my younger brother Qingshan. If he too falls for Miss Qi Yue, as the elder, it would only be proper for me to step aside.”

Upon hearing this, Emperor Donggao scoffed repeatedly.

“Qingshan wouldn’t dare compete with you. But through this, I can see that your Fox King Uncle is still eyeing my throne, even setting his sights on the next generation!”

“Leave this matter to you as well; from now on, you need to keep a close watch on that old chap for me!”

“Yes, Imperial Uncle.”

Song Qiyun bowed deeply, his lips curling into a triumphant, crooked smile.

In Plum Blossom Villa, within Yimei Garden, Qi Yue was performing a splenectomy on Song Chongzhen inside a special space.

When this fellow was brought in, he was already in hemorrhagic shock. Human life hung in the balance, and as a physician, she could not disregard the dying.

She had no choice but to treat him in another empty room.

Only she, with her space and surgical skills, along with the help of her little assistants, could have saved Song Chongzhen’s life; any other doctor would have found it hopeless.

She was truly astounded.

This Song Chongzhen, a towering guard, how could he have received a blow that ruptured his spleen.

An hour and a half later, Qi Yue finally finished the surgery. She moved Song Chongzhen out of the space and settled him on a bed outside before opening the door.

Originally planning to give instructions for his care to those who brought him, she heard Zhu Ye say that they left as soon as they dropped him off.

Qi Yue felt frustrated by the predicament; were they taking advantage of her kindness to freeload medical care?

With no other choice, she instructed Liao Ye to look after him, at least until he regained consciousness.

It wasn’t until the next afternoon that Song Chongzhen finally woke up.

Seeing the familiar ceiling and windows of Plum Blossom Villa before him, he knew he had been saved.

But whenever he thought of his wife and children in King Ye’s Prefecture, his heart couldn’t help but tremble uncontrollably.

If he didn’t manage to win over Miss Qi Yue, he might never see them again.

Song Chongzhen lay on the bed, shedding tears in a daze.

Suddenly, the door “clattered” open and in came a set of quick footsteps.

He hurriedly wiped the tears from his face and tried to sit up, only to find that his lower abdomen hurt terribly.

He couldn’t help but curse Song Qiyun for his merciless heart.

Song Qiyun knew very well that Qi Yue would not accept the people he arranged to be by her side, and yet he had the heart to harm him so grievously….

“Don’t move, if you tear open your spleen and hemorrhage, I won’t save you,”

a sharp, urgent voice said, as Qi Yue had already arrived by the bed.

“Awake?”

“Hmm,” Song Qiyun struggled to nod, looking at Qi Yue with grateful eyes.

“Miss Qi Yue, I will never forget the grace of saving my life. Once I’m better, I will certainly be at your beck and call….”

He had not finished speaking when Qi Yue cut him off.

“Enough, with your body now three parts ruined, you’d better conserve what’s left. Don’t talk about repaying debts; what’s important is to find someone to take care of you. You won’t be able to get out of bed for several days with your condition.”

Song Chongzhen was stunned.

“What do you mean, Miss Qi? Is my condition very serious?”

Seeing the ignorance on Song Chongzhen’s face, Qi Yue let out a cold laugh.

She wasn’t so selflessly kind-hearted; a case that had cost her great effort and time must be made clear to the patient.

“You should know you were beaten up, right?”

“Yes,” Song Chongzhen said, turning his face away to dodge the question, “It was enemies I had made in the past, there were too many of them, I couldn’t defeat them…”

Qi Yue nodded.

“Good that you know. Let me tell you, your spleen was ruptured. I performed surgery on you, removed a third of it to save your life. If you want to live longer, you better start taking care of yourself.”

Song Chongzhen was somewhat perplexed.

He could understand what Qi Yue was saying, it was straightforward, but why did it sound so strange? Surgery, excision…

Though he was a bit confused, he understood that if it hadn’t been for Qi Yue, he would certainly be dead. He promptly agreed, indicating that he would take good care of himself.

Qi Yue had intended to ask him what exactly had happened but then thought better of it.

When she had come in, she had seen Song Chongzhen wiping away tears. She feared it might be another heavy and deep grievance like Shen Ku’s, and she couldn’t stand those.

Leaving behind the necessary medicine and instructing Liao Ye to look after him, Qi Yue returned to her own room.

With Qing Nanzun dealt with, her next move was to handle King Ye and the Fox King, the two who had been plotting against her, and then leave.

She always remembered that Qing Nanzun had used his own blood as a primer to cultivate several poison people.

Now she was worried that if the blood of these poison people got into the water supply, what might happen was unimaginable.

Longnan could very well turn into a hell on earth.

She still needed to find an opportunity to return as soon as possible and root out this hidden calamity.

However, since she had snubbed both the Fox King and King Ye in the hall before everyone yesterday, she didn’t know what tricks they might play next. She had to be on guard.

In the evening, Zhu Ye reported that Song Qiyun had arrived, bringing a woman with him.

“Miss, I’ve heard that the woman is Song Chongzhen’s wife. The Princely Heir brought her specifically to care for Song Chongzhen,” she said.

This seemed reasonable, although it was a bit late for anyone to show up.
