Chapter 1873: Prince Ping

Anything produced by Lin Yuelan would definitely be worth a lot!

This was a publicly acknowledged fact among the aristocrats in the capital.

Lin Yuelan looked at Prince Ping, who was putting on an act but was stalling for time. She sneered in her heart but said on the surface,” Prince Ping, I am His Majesty’s adopted daughter. I need to address His Majesty as ‘Imperial Father’. Therefore, according to seniority, I should address you as Seventh Imperial Uncle. Since you’re Imperial Uncle, as a junior, it’s only right for me to give you a pill.”

At this point, her expression turned into one of feigned sadness.” Or is it that Seventh Imperial Uncle suspects that I’m giving you a pill of poison?”

Prince Ping’s expression froze. He opened his mouth and said,” Princess, you’re overthinking. I don’t have such doubts!”

In fact, he was already suspicious.

He didn’t believe that Lin Yuelan would be so kind as to give him a real medicine pill.

Lin Yuelan was famous for being petty.

She had always been cold and ruthless, a vengeful person!

Previously, he had repeatedly targeted Lin Yuelan. Would she not remember it in her heart and wait for revenge?

This seemed impossible.

Therefore, he seriously suspected that Lin Yuelan wanted to take this opportunity to poison him.

Just like earlier, he was clearly pretending to have lumbago. However, Lin Yuelan played some tricks, and his fake lumbago turned into a real lumbago!

And now, she was giving him a pill?

Anyone would doubt her intentions!

However, he couldn’t say it out loud.

At the thought of this, Prince Ping secretly took a few deep breaths. Then, he said to Lin Yuelan,” Since it’s a gift from the princess, I’ll accept it!”

As for whether he ate it or not, that was his own business.

Moreover, it seemed that the delay was almost over. If he continued to delay, it would arouse suspicion.

Prince Ping stretched out his hand, wanting to take the pill from Lin Yuelan, but Lin Yuelan avoided him.

Prince Ping was stunned at first. Then, he heard Lin Yuelan say,” Prince Ping, this pill has already come out of the bottle cap. You must take it on the spot. Otherwise, it will lose its medicinal properties!”

Prince Ping’s expression darkened instantly. His gaze toward Lin Yuelan became exceptionally sharp.

Lin Yuelan’s unrelenting attitude made him suspect that the pill was poison.

He could no longer suppress the anger in his heart and said,” Lin Yuelan, what do you mean by this? Why must you force this king to eat this pill? Could it be that this pill is poison?”

At this point, he paused and looked around. He sneered and said,” That’s true. Who in the capital doesn’t know that you, Lin Yuelan, love to hold grudges? Just now, this king repeatedly targeted you, so you must have hated me again. So, you wanted to poison me to death, right?”

Lin Yuelan’s expression turned cold when she heard Prince Ping’s words. Then, she threw the pill into the corner and said coldly,” Since Prince Ping is so suspicious of my intentions, then there’s no need to take this pill that can cure all pain.”

Then, she turned to look at the Crown Prince and said coldly,” Your Highness, we’ve wasted enough time. It’s time to set off!”

The Crown Prince was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and shouted,” Let’s go!”

However, he immediately turned around and said to the two princes seriously,” Third Imperial Uncle, Seventh Imperial Uncle, Father has ordered me to preside over the case of the Guguo Princess owing wages to the workers. At the same time, he has also ordered the two Imperial Uncles to be the judges. However, this case has implicated another major case. Similarly, both imperial uncles need to meet Imperial Father together with me!”

Prince Gong immediately replied,” Alright!”

However, Prince Ping evaded,” Crown Prince, Seventh Imperial Uncle isn’t feeling well. There’s no need for me to go, right?”

Things had already developed to this point. He had to leave and see how things developed.

If it developed to the point where they had to force him to abdicate, then he would be dead if he followed them into the palace.

He did not want to die yet!

However, the Crown Prince refused sternly.” Seventh Imperial Uncle, you must go and see Imperial Father about this matter! Otherwise, I won’t be able to answer to Imperial Father!”

His attitude was clearly very unyielding!

“If Seventh Imperial Uncle doesn’t trust Princess Gu, then that’s fine. After we enter the palace, we’ll immediately call the Imperial Physician to take a look at you. Moreover, I see that Seventh Imperial Uncle is energetic and lively. There’s no relapse of your old illness.” The Crown Prince said without any concealment. “Men, bring a soft sedan over so that Prince Ping can carry it into the palace!”

“Yes, Crown Prince!”

Prince Ping’s face turned pale.

Finally, unwillingly, he sat on the sedan chair.
