Chapter 287 Grit Your Teeth and Agree
As soon as Ling Chu finished speaking, the Queen Mother's face darkened.
She thought this was her excuse, because she was angry with Concubine An, so she didn't want to save the second prince.
She was about to scold her, but when she looked closely, Ling Chu's forehead was covered with sweat, his face was frighteningly pale, and his lips were pale.
He spoke weakly, and his body was shaky, as if he would faint in the next moment.
The Queen Mother thought of how she had just protected her and the emperor, whipped Lvliu, and hit Xu the kitchen servant. She also remembered that she was sent to a Taoist temple for foster care by the Ling family because of her poor health since she was a child.
She couldn't say the words of reprimand.
As a person who has been in poor health since childhood and has been sick for many years, Ling Chu doesn't need to pretend. She knows how to make herself look like she is not well.
Although the Queen Mother swallowed her words, her face was ugly.
Ling Chu shook her body, took out a handkerchief, covered her mouth and coughed.
She didn't stop coughing like normal people, but coughed more and more violently. One cough after another, she coughed until the sky was dark, and her weak body trembled, as if she could die at any time.
Xia Zhi supported her with one hand with a worried look on his face, and used the other hand to relieve her back.
The wound on the shoulder of the second prince bitten by Lvliu was burning and painful, and it was itchy.
Lvliu was still clinging to him tightly.
What made the second prince even more frightened was that Xu the kitchen servant was still staring at him with his fangs bared, and it seemed that he would pounce on him and bite his neck off at the next moment.
Although there were guards, no one could save him.
The second prince had to beg Ling Chu again, "Miss Ling, as long as you can save this prince, I can give you anything you want."
Ling Chu didn't say anything, but no one could blame her.
Everyone could see that she didn't want to say it, but she couldn't say it.
Because she was still busy coughing.
Wei Feng looked at Ling Chu, wondering in his heart. He had known her for a while, but why had he never seen her coughing like she was about to die like now?
Glancing at Ning Chuyi, he saw that his brows were furrowed and veins on the back of his hand were bulging.
Wei Feng felt ashamed. The adults were so worried, it seemed that Miss Ling was not pretending.
Ling Chu was coughing so hard that she was about to die, and the second prince was still begging her for help. Wei Feng was worried that Ning Chuyi would not be able to help but pick up a knife and chop him.
The second prince begged several more times before Ling Chu slowly stopped coughing.
Concubine An just woke up and learned that she was bitten by Xu the kitchen servant. She was terrified. She was afraid that she would die and that the emperor would dislike her.
She wanted to tear Han Yao, who was not good at doing things but was more likely to cause trouble, to pieces.
But the second prince had not been rescued yet, Concubine An could only hold back her anger, took off all her jewelry, and stuffed it into Ling Chu's hands, "Miss Ling, as long as you rescue the second prince, I will give you another big reward."
Ling Chu did not take her things, but moved aside and said in a calm voice, "My Lady Xianfei, I have said long ago that if you want to save the second prince, it is useless to ask me, only he can save himself."
Concubine An paused, the fire in her heart was about to explode.
Her Mu'er is a prince, and he will be the emperor in the future. How can she marry a dead person as a prince's consort?
Concubine An disagreed.
Lvliu's admiring eyes disappeared visibly, and her expression suddenly became resentful, and the murderous aura on her body soared again.
The kitchen servant Xu was even more murderous, baring his fangs, and was about to bite the second prince.
The second prince was afraid that his neck would be bitten off, so he said quickly in fear, "Don't bite me, I... I am willing to marry Lvliu as my concubine."
Concubine An was shocked and angry, "Mu'er, you..."
She wanted to object, but Lvliu and Xu the kitchen servant's sharp fangs stopped at the side of her son's neck, and she was afraid that the second prince would be bitten to death as soon as she spoke her objection.
She had to swallow the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
The second prince didn't want to die, and he didn't resist as much as Concubine An.
Lvliu was already dead, and marrying her as a concubine was just giving her a status.
As long as he was alive and ascended the throne in the future, who would dare to criticize him for such a small matter.
The second prince was not afraid of not being able to marry a noble lady. As long as he could win the throne, there were many ladies vying to marry him as queen.
The second prince didn't want to die, so he had to grit his teeth and agree.
He put away the fear and disgust on his face and looked at Lvliu affectionately.
"Lvliu, haven't you always wanted to marry me? I'll marry you as the prince's consort, okay? You put me down, I'll ask the Imperial Observatory to pick an auspicious day, and when the Ministry of Rites prepares the phoenix crown and bridal robe, I'll marry you, okay?"
Being looked at affectionately by the second prince and seduced by his words, the evil spirit on Lvliu's body suddenly dissipated.
She asked shyly, "Second Prince, are you really willing to marry me as the prince's consort?"
The second prince seemed to be unable to see the gloomy ghost on Lvliu's face, and nodded gently, "Of course it's true, but you have to put me down first, so I can go to the Imperial Observatory and the Ministry of Rites to plan the wedding."
"Okay, okay, I'll let you down right now." Lvliu had always wanted to marry the second prince, and finally got his promise, and there was only happiness on her pale face.
Although Xu the kitchen servant was not very happy, he still put away his fangs for Lvliu and stepped aside.
Lvliu untied the ribbon, grabbed the second prince and floated down.
The second prince breathed a sigh of relief and could not wait to break Lvliu's arm.
Fearing that he might upset her, he tried to appease her while holding back his nausea, "You go back first. When the Ministry of Rites has finished the preparations, I will have someone notify you and marry you."
Lvliu reluctantly let go and returned to Xu the kitchen servant.
But their bodies were burned by Han Yao, and they didn't know where they could go back.
Seeing that they didn't leave, the emperor frowned, "Miss Ling, look..."
Although the emperor didn't finish, Ling Chu also knew that he wanted her to collect the two ghosts.
It was not easy for Ling Chu to shirk this matter. After all, she had collected so many ghosts when she set up a stall to tell fortunes before. If she said that she couldn't collect them now, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor.
She would continue to accumulate merits in the future and couldn't block her own way.
Ling Chu took out the altar and said to Lvliu and Xu the kitchen servant, "You are ghosts and can't stay in the world of the living. I will collect you first and let you out after the second prince has prepared the wedding."
Xu the kitchen servant didn't object and nodded in agreement.
Xu the kitchen servant was grateful to Ling Chu. He didn't have much hope for the second prince to marry Lvliu as the prince's consort, but he didn't expect that she would persuade the second prince to agree.
He was actually very afraid of Ling Chu's whip, because he knew that he and Lvliu could not beat her at all.
Xu Chuyi didn't know why Ling Chu wanted to help them, but he was smart enough not to ask.
Ling Chu performed a magic trick and captured Lvliu and Xu Chuyi.
Concubine An immediately said angrily, "Miss Ling, these two ghosts hurt me and the second prince. I want them to be shattered and never reincarnated."
As soon as Concubine An said this, the altar shook violently.
