A Military Doctor Became a Stepmom in Ancient Times

350 Acting

“Your Highness, why don’t you tell me what happened? When Jiang Ying comes out, I’ll take the time to take a look,” Ning Yue said.

She had to put on a show. Jiang Ying was still in prison. If she didn’t show that she was in a hurry and still went out to do business with him, it would arouse suspicion.

He started to say something, then stopped. Then he sighed heavily and looked at her with troubled eyes.

Just as Ning Yue had said, the situation was special. He couldn’t force Ning Yue to take a look now, so he could only tell her what had happened.

!!

It turned out that when someone saw that the crown prince’s business was booming, they also had the intention to imitate him and set up many medicinal makeup workshops. The effect was similar, but it was much cheaper than the crown prince’s medicinal makeup. With cheap items to choose from, they naturally wouldn’t buy the crown prince’s medicinal makeup again.

So that was what was going on. Ning Yue sighed. Fortunately, she had not told the crown prince about the composition of the medicinal makeup previously.

“Go and take a look when you have time,” the crown prince said.

“I don’t have to specially look at this matter. I can produce another kind of medicinal makeup. That medicinal makeup will be many times more effective than this.”

Only by constantly innovating would he not be defeated by new things.

“Can’t you just tell me the composition ratio of the medicinal makeup?” the crown prince asked.

Ning Yue smiled mysteriously. “It’s not time yet.”

At this point, the crown prince no longer discussed the composition of the medicinal makeup with Ning Yue.

He left after saying a few words. At this moment, the emperor and Yuan Hui were in the front hall. They seemed to have argued. Both of them did not look happy.

The crown prince walked behind the emperor and asked softly, “Father, what happened?”

The emperor snorted and did not answer the crown prince’s question.

“Emperor of Great Yun, I think your Great Yun Nation has a lot of government affairs to deal with. If there’s nothing else, please go back,” Yuan Hui said.

The emperor was so angry that he almost cursed on the spot. This was the capital, his territory! Yuan Hui actually chased him away on his territory?

What a joke!

The emperor was about to say something when the crown prince stopped him. The crown prince could roughly guess what the two of them were arguing about.

The emperor swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

“In that case, we’ll take our leave.” With that, the emperor and crown prince stood up and left.

Along the way, the emperor looked very pale. He asked the crown prince, “What did you say to Ning Yue when you went in?”

“It’s nothing. Just some business problems,” the crown prince said sheepishly.

He did not dare to tell the emperor that his business had suffered a heavy blow. If he did, the emperor would die of anger.

He was the crown prince of a country, but someone actually dared to trip him up in his business. Not only did he trip him up, but he also came to look for Ning Yue and asked her how to resolve it.

Speaking of business, the emperor suddenly remembered something. Back then, he had asked Ning Yue to help him do business. He wondered how Ning Yue was doing now.

At this moment, Ning Yue suddenly remembered the token the emperor had given her. There had been too many things going on recently and she had almost forgotten about it.

Since she had just arrived in the capital, she would take the opportunity to take a look.

Just as Ning Yue was about to call the secret guards over, Yuan Hui arrived.

“Just now, the emperor told me that he wanted to use Jiang Ying as bait to lure out the mastermind,” Yuan Hui said.

Ning Yue was instantly unhappy when she heard this. She said angrily, “Why should Jiang Ying be the bait? Why don’t he do it himself?”

“That’s what I replied. He was quite angry with me. He said that those people were coming for Prince Jin’s Residence. Jiang Ying is more suitable to be the bait,” Yuan Hui said.

“What nonsense is this? What do you mean by Jiang Ying is more suitable as bait? Although this matter looks like it’s targeted at Prince Jin’s Residence on the surface, as long as you think about it carefully, you’ll know that the entire matter is targeted at the emperor.”

“Now, only Jiang Ying and his father can support the emperor wholeheartedly. The other brothers don’t know how to do it at all. The two princes who rebelled have already been executed, and there’s only Prince Chu left. But who can tell what Prince Chu is thinking?”

Yuan Hui nodded. He thought so too. If Prince Jin had a conflict with the emperor, there would be no one else around him.

Among the few generals leading the troops, only Ning Feng was more talented.

However, not long ago, he had just sent someone to assassinate Ning Feng. He was not dead, but he was seriously injured. That group of people took this opportunity to attack Prince Jin’s Residence.

However, he did not tell Ning Yue that he had sent someone to assassinate Ning Feng.
