Chapter 57: Purposefully making things difficult, meeting foes part 1

“Is imperial aunty feeling unwell?” asked Mu Zi Ling flatly once she opened eyes

She was the one who took the Zhang Princess’ pulse, so it should be her stating whether or not the Zhang Princess was healthy. However, when she took the pulse, her body seemed fine. But, the Zhang Princess herself, was the one who said her body didn’t feel well, so Mu Zi Ling had to take it as she said.

It would make sense if it was just her who couldn't find anything wrong. However, even the Stellar System couldn’t find out what was wrong, so there was probably nothing. But if that was the case, then why did the Zhang Princess say that she felt unwell?

Mu Zi Ling didn’t dare speak.mindlessly. The Zhang Princess was clearly healthy, but she was telling her that she felt unwell.

Mu Zi Ling was now certain that the Zhang Princess was testing her. If the she did have an illness, she would have gone to an imperial doctor instead of looking for her.

She was however, in the dark as to why the Zhang Princess wanted to test her. In short, she just had to be more careful.

The Zhang Princess wasn’t surprised at all by Mu Zi Ling’s questions. It was as if she already knew that Mu Zi Ling would not be able to find anything wrong about her body.

“What? You couldn’t see what’s wrong?” exclaimed Zhang Princess as she purposefully raised her brows. Then she gave Mu Zi Ling a look as if to say, if you are a doctor and you don’t know, then how would I know?

Faced with a Princess who purposefully made things difficult, how could Mu Zi Ling know? However, she didn’t care much about it.

“This wife already has an idea in her heart, however, imperial aunty should understand her body better than this wife does. Only after you tell me which parts of your body are feeling unwell, could I get closer to you and take a look.”

If she claimed that the Zhang Princess wasn’t sick, she would be accusing the Zhang Princess of telling a lie. If she lied and said the Zhang Princess was sick, then she would be the liar. No matter what she said, no good would come out of it. So why not just get the Zhang Princess to say what was wrong herself?

The Zhang Princess smiled brightly when she saw Mu Zi Ling unwilling to give up so easily. She couldn’t help but admit that Mu Zi Ling was really smart. Not only did she already know the meaning behind her words, she also knew how to act accordingly, and what words should not be said.

The rumours whispering that she was an idiot were all lies.

However, since she had already said that her body didn’t feel well, then she would have to really act like her body wasn’t feeling well, so she found a random reason.

The Zhang Princess pulled on the clothes that were sliding off her shoulders, and said weakly, “It’s probably because it's almost my monthly cycle. It makes me feel very empty and cold at night.”

Hearing her words, the corner of Mu Zi Ling’s mouth curved up. If the Zhang Princess was looking for an excuse, then why couldn’t she find a more fitting one? She claimed that she felt lonely and cold, but did those adjectives really fit her?

Mu Zi Ling was really tempted to ask her. Was a whole room full of handsome young man not enough for her? Why would she still feel hollow and lonely?

But she kept it in her head, and didn’t say it out loud. She thought of it as saving some face for the Zhang Princess.

“Imperial aunty, those are signs of disruptions in your monthly cycle. This wife will write you a prescription, all imperial aunty has to do, is use this for a few days,” said Mu Zi Ling knowingly.

Since the Zhang Princess has already said that, then she would just give her some mild blood replenishing medicine and quickly leave this place.

She didn’t know what the Zhang Princess was trying to do by getting her to come over and then purposefully making things difficult for her. All she wanted to do now was to leave this potentially dangerous place.

Although she didn't feel anything at first, now that she has stood here for a while, her heart felt stuffy. Probably because the fragrances in this room were too strong, giving her difficulties breathing. She was also worried about Xie who stood outside by herself.

Zhang Princess’s eyes slightly narrowed, and she looked at Mu Zi Ling for a while longer. It was like she had been really pleased by Mu Zi Ling.

The corners of her mouth curved up, and she said, “That would be great, thank you.”

However, Mu Zi Ling didn’t think much about it and just nodded her head. She didn’t say anything more, and wrote down the prescription, before handing it over to the Zhang Princess.

Suddenly, housekeeper An’s voice drifted in from outside, “Zhang Princess, Mister Li has arrived.”

“Let him enter,” said Zhang princess weakly. Then she pulled down the clothes she had pulled up earlier and continued to position herself on the soft mattress ignoring Mu Zi Ling’s presence.

However, this time, Mu Zi Ling did not look over. She purposefully closed her eyes and looked away. Although the Zhang Princess had a great body, she used it the wrong way. Though at least she was not at the point of being interested in women.

“Imperial aunty, since you have a guest, this wife will leave now,” said Mu Zi Ling quickly as she lowered her head.

She wasn't sure if the Zhang Princess will let her leave like this, but even though she didn't know who this Mister Li was, from what she could see right now, his relationship with the Zhang princess must be special. In addition, with the way that the Zhang Princess was acting right now, it didn’t seem like she would want to keep her here.

Just as expected...

“En,” replied the Zhang Princess softly as she closed her eyes.

Her voice was really soft and quiet, but Mu Zi Ling easily caught it in her impatience to leave. After getting her permission, she immediately felt energized and happy. She could finally go out and breathe some fresh air!

“Then this wife shall take her leave,” replied Mu Zi Ling before hurriedly leaving.

Just then, the door swung open and a very handsome man, wearing a full body of red came in. He was enchanting and his peach blossom eyes smiled.

Mu Zi Ling only glanced at him before she retrieved her gaze and walked out.

Outside, the bantering voice of that man came from inside, “Oh! Yi’er, whose beautiful daughter was that? Why was she leaving so quickly? Why didn't you introduce her to me?”

“Silly, is this Princess not enough for you?” protested the Zhang Princess. She didn't feel displeased by the man’s words, but she didn’t stop Mu Zi Ling from leaving either.

When Mu Zi Ling heard this soft protesting voice, she almost tripped over her own feet. She didn’t even have to look back to see what was happening. The Zhang Princess’ charming skills were really high! Thank goodness that she had a strong willpower and didn’t go down.

Quickly, Mu Zi Ling left the Palace like she was trying to escape. She even kindly closed the doors for them.

As for what words the two said inside or what they were doing, she had blocked her ears and eyes.

Once outside the palace, Mu Zi Ling grabbed the Xie who was still stationed outside and left the Zhang Princess’ Manor. It was as if someone was chasing her.
