Poison Doctor Roaming the Martial World

Chapter 258 Mo Yu Requests Imperial Decree

Yang Jianwu held his rice bowl with his hand. He coughed a few times both times he ate at the same table with Nalan Yuanli. He looked decent enough, so why did he like to let others eat his saliva?

Nalan Yuanli coughed for a while before he could catch his breath. He felt ashamed. People had kindly saved him, and he still had such wicked thoughts. He really shouldn't have!

"Thank you, Miss Mulan! If it weren't for you, I..."

"No need for formalities, I'm just following your orders, Miss!"

Mu Jin had no idea what Nalan Yuanli was thinking. If she did, she would definitely beat him up on the spot! She stretched her wrists a few times and returned to her seat, not forgetting to remind Nalan Yuanli.

"You need to lose weight! You're too heavy..."

Nalan Yuanli awkwardly scratched the floor with his foot.

"Pfft~"

Luo Li couldn't help but laugh. She pretended not to see Nalan Yuanli's resentful gaze and nudged Yang Jianwu with her elbow, "Why send Mu Jin? If you had gone, he would have been more comfortable."

"I'm a married man, how can I just hug other people? My son, Ah Xuan, will be jealous!"

Yang Jianwu rolled her eyes, then continued to struggle with Wanzi.

Luo Li suddenly felt choked up...

After everyone finished eating, Luo Li escorted Nalan Yuanli back to the inn. Yang Jianwu stayed at Huashuiyuefang for one night and returned to the General's Mansion the next day.

Yang Boshan went to the military camp, and Yuan Suxin was furious after hearing her daughter's story.

It took Yang Jianwu a long time to persuade the person to stop, and he chatted and laughed with them for half a day before leaving.

Dongli Imperial Palace - Imperial Study

Mo Yu knelt on the ground and argued with Emperor Dongli.

"Father! Let your son go!"

"No! This plague is no joke! Ye'er dealt with the plague in Lucheng before; he has more experience than you!"

"Father! You always say that I will inherit your throne in the future, and now is the perfect time to be close to the people!"

Emperor Dongli waved his hand dismissively, "If I say no, then no! Forget about it!"

Since Luo Qi's passing, Mo Yu has become even more taciturn and his temper has become increasingly volatile. Emperor Dongli, unaware of his thoughts, only wants to protect him for the rest of his life!

Having already lost the woman I love most, I cannot lose my beloved son as well!

For Mo Yu, the palace was a cage, and he was like a caged canary longing to fly away! This time, even if he was battered and bruised, he was determined to go!

If force didn't work, he tried a softer approach. Mo Yu suppressed his imposing manner and said earnestly, "Father, if Mother were still alive, she would definitely agree to my going to Guning City!"

"Luo Qi..."

Emperor Dongli closed his eyes, and no one saw the tears welling up in his eyes.

Mo Yu knew something was up from the expression on Dongli Emperor's face, so he put on an even more sorrowful expression.

"Father, do you remember the first time you met Mother? She was saving the people, rushing to the front lines without regard for her own safety! You said she was the bravest and most beautiful woman you had ever met, because her heart was different from others!"

Emperor Dongli pondered for a long time, wanting to persuade Mo Yu again.

"Yu'er, the northern border of Dongli connects to the barbarians, and the strength of each tribe should not be underestimated! Guning City, as a connecting point, is an essential route! Now, an epidemic has broken out in the city, and even with guards, it is not as strong as it was in its heyday. It's too dangerous!"

Mo Yu bowed solemnly to Emperor Dongli, “Father, I am not afraid! I was born to be an outstanding person! I do not want to grow up under your protection forever... Please believe in me, Father, I will definitely be able to make my own way in the world!”

Emperor Dongli remained silent, walked to the window and stood there. His hunched back, which was beginning to show, made him look much older.

"Father..."

"Do you have to go?"

"Yes! Father, rest assured, your son will return safely!"

"Mo Ye has a connection with the Ghost Doctor, so he must have some protective pills given to him by the Ghost Doctor. You must stay close to him! Understand?!"

Mo Yu was overjoyed. Did this mean they agreed to let him go?!

"Your subject understands! Your subject will follow Sixth Brother closely and obey Sixth Brother's arrangements!"

"Don't be reckless. The officials will handle the distribution of porridge and medicine. Don't get involved, do you hear me!"

"I know, I know! Father, don't worry! Your son will go back and prepare now, and will set off with Sixth Brother tomorrow!"

Emperor Dongli rubbed his temples and waved his hand behind him. When will this brat ever listen to him?!

Having received a reply, Mo Yu immediately got up and left, finally able to breathe some fresh air! This was the first time he had left the palace since his mother's passing, and he truly wished he would never return…

Emperor Dongli was still thinking about Luo Qi, recalling the beauty of their first meeting, the confrontation after learning her identity, and the despondent look in her eyes when he severed her Achilles tendon... Every frame pierced Emperor Dongli's heart.

Luo Qi, you left so easily, just abandoning us like that. Yu'er is even harder to manage now. What if he doesn't do what you want? Will you blame me in the afterlife? Tell me, the child still needs you, how can you be so heartless!

……

At the Ning Prince's residence, Mo Ye looked up at the azure sky. Calculating the days, Hong Nan should be arriving in Anshun soon. Xiao Wu'er should be able to get here in time after receiving the news…

I hope she didn't wander off... otherwise I'll have to search for her aimlessly...

Hongfeng and Hongyun were directing the guards to pack their belongings in the courtyard. Their eyes met from time to time. They had thought that Miss Yang would become a princess.

The prince has given orders upon his return: Miss Yang is his junior sister, and has been recognized by Master Tie! From now on, she is considered the mistress of the Ning Prince's Mansion, and you must not address her incorrectly when you meet her again!
