Minister Family's Black Belly Woman

One second to remember [Brushstroke Pavilion] [Free of charge, read the wonderful novel!]

However, never would he have expected that Baili Qingfeng would actually think of her as his daughter. The imperial family's daughter was not someone who could be accepted by anyone just because they wanted to be her.

Seeing that Shen Ninghua did not reply for a long time, Baili Qingyuan asked again, "Ninghua, are you willing?"

Shen Ninghua looked up at him and said, "Your majesty, this subject is willing." With this favor, she had even less scruples.

"Haha, good." Baili Qinghuang was very happy. He personally bent down and helped Shen Ninghua up, "Tomorrow, I will announce to the world that I have another daughter. You should call me father now."

Although he didn't know the reason, Shen Ninghua could feel a sincere affection from his body. "Your Majesty, please tell the world that there's no rush in matters, wait for this subject's daughter to return from Jiangnan alive. At that time, I'll change my name to 'Father'. It wouldn't be too late for you to pass down the decree."

"What?" Baili Qingfeng tightened his grip on her shoulder, "You still want to go to Jiangnan?" He originally thought that Shen Ninghua wanted to go to Jiangnan because she didn't want to get involved with the Shen family. He had already given her an excellent reason to leave the Shen family, so why did she insist on doing so?

"Your majesty, although Ning Hua is an ordinary girl, she also understands the righteousness of her country. If I don't understand the art of medicine, and there's no need for disaster relief, I wouldn't ask to go to Jiangnan because it would just be an extra life. But since I know the art of medicine, and the Chen Courtyard has already said so, my method of writing the Plague Medicine Recipe is completely correct, I can't just stand by and watch."

"There are so many imperial physicians in the palace. We can just tell them to take the prescription to Jiangnan. As a girl, I'm not at ease with you."

"I want to go to Jiangnan to take a look at the emperor. Now that I'm the emperor's adopted daughter, no matter what, I can be counted as half a princess. The commoners will definitely be very happy when they know that the emperor has not given up on them."

Baili Qingfeng wanted to refute her, but when he saw her smiling face, he did not know what to say. After a long while, he finally let out a sigh, "You are as stubborn as your mother. "I remember that back then when the main clan head of the Xia clan went to the battlefield, she insisted on following him no matter what. I was worried, so I secretly gave her medicine, causing her to oversleep and miss the date of the battle. After that, she caused a huge ruckus and was no longer willing to talk to me anymore …" "Until something happened to the Xia family, she was even more unwilling to pay any attention to me …"

The emotions within were so complicated that it was hard for her to understand them. At this moment, she was extremely curious, just what kind of woman was her mother, to be able to make this sixty year old emperor think about her for such a long time.

In the end, Baili Qingyuan agreed to Shen Ninghua's decision. He called out five hundred elite soldiers to her, and also agreed to Baili JinChuan's request to bring a group of imperial physicians to Jiangnan to provide relief.

The commoners wanted to swallow the Shen family alive, but before they could react, the news of Shen Ninghua becoming the foster daughter of the Imperial Family and helping Imperial Physician research the true plague medicine had already spread out. Many of the commoners didn't know whether to hate the Shen family or to feel grateful.

While they were at a loss, another decree came down. Shen Ninghua, who had just been conferred the title of Prefecture Lord by the royal family, and the second prince, Baili Jinchuan, had rushed over to Jiangnan to provide relief.

The vast and mighty convoy left the capital and headed south. Many commoners knelt on the ground to send them off, hoping that they would bring good news.

Standing on top of the city wall, he watched the long line of people leaving. After a long time, when he could no longer see the figures of Shen Ninghua and the rest, he retracted his gaze, stood with his hands behind his back and said, "Shen Dong, after so many years, have you still not figured it out?"

The crown on his head was in a mess, causing him to look even older and depressed. Now that he heard Baili Qingyuan's question, he gave a mocking smile, "In the end, the Emperor finally got what he wanted and has finally recognized Ning Hua as his daughter. Should we wait for the Shen family to fall and change her name to 'Baili Ning Hua' after a period of time?"

Baili Qingfeng pursed his lips, his gaze filled with ice-cold killing intent, "No wonder you were toyed with by Lady Zhao. Could it be that you've always thought that Shen Ninghua is my daughter?"

"Isn't it?" Shen Dong's eyes widened, his smile became even more mocking, "Anyways, she's about to die, I'm not afraid of disrespect you, back then I didn't touch Xia Jingyan, how could she get pregnant, and even give birth to an ugly girl?"

"Heh, you're really stupid! [You really aren't worthy of Jingyan. What kind of girl do you think she is? You should remember that before the Xia Clan was falsely accused, you got drunk from begging for mercy. At that time, it was Xia Jingyan who took care of you, did you forget what happened that night? "

Shen Dong was stunned, and his thoughts slowly returned to that time …

"All these years, you actually didn't believe that Ning Hua was your daughter? Or perhaps, it's not that you don't believe it, it's that you don't dare to believe it. After all, at that time, because of your suspicion of Jingyan, you had tacitly accepted that Mrs Zhao had drugged her, causing her to lose her life on the day of birth. "You must be feeling so guilty every day that you can't sleep."

"No, I'm not guilty."

Baili Qing Cang laughed coldly, "Shen Dong, we will destroy the Shen family, but we will not let you die. Jingyan was such a prideful girl, yet she couldn't be bothered to explain herself, neither could she be bothered to compromise. At that time, she was the one who begged for death and didn't even eat the antidote that was sent to her mouth. You, as the main culprit, should live with guilt all your life to atone for your sins! "

Shen Dong was dazed on the spot, as if he had been struck dumb.

Baili Qingfeng waved his hand, "Take him back to the Heavenly Prison to watch over him. Don't let anything happen to him. We'll deal with him when Princess Congee Hua returns."

In the southern troop, Shen Ninghua did not ride in a horse carriage. Instead, he changed into a new set of riding clothes and rode on a horse just like Baili JinChuan. The four of them also followed closely behind.

After riding on horseback for more than four hours, Baili Jinchuan gave the order for everyone to rest. The team slowly stopped. Baili JinChuan jumped down from his horse, handing the reins to the guard who came running over. He walked to Shen Ninghua's horse and asked, "Ninghua, do you want me to help you down?"

Seeing the mocking look in his eyes, Shen Ninghua slightly raised her brows. "I dare not trouble the Duke of the County." After saying that, he jumped off the horse.

Because of the four hours she had spent in the courtyard, Shen Ninghua's hair appeared to be in a mess, and a layer of sweat had also appeared on her forehead. However, her eyes were exceptionally bright, and perhaps because she had left the house, her eyes were exceptionally clear, revealing a feeling of freedom and relaxation.

Baili JinChuan was momentarily stunned, but immediately recovered, "If we keep going like this, we will arrive in Ping City in about four days."

Shen Ninghua nodded her head and took a sip of water from Hong Ling's glass. "Then, let's keep it up to speed." Baili JinChuan raised his head, "Can you bear to keep doing this?" Even the guards and soldiers would probably be unable to get up after four days in Jiangnan, not to mention Shen Ninghua.

"The Prince really likes to watch people from under the door."

"I am not looking down on you. Instead, I am just discussing the matter. Don't try to be too forceful. I have someone prepare a carriage. If you can't take it, sit in it."

Shen Ninghua took a glance behind him and said without a care, "Mm, if I can't take it, I'll go sit."

Baili JinChuan didn't say anything else, but he was a bit upset. This girl was too stubborn, he wanted to make her suffer a little so that she wouldn't try to be strong in the future. So he didn't say anything, waiting for the team to recover and directly mounted the horse to move on.

What he did not expect was that Shen Ninghua would always ride along with them through the night camp, not asking to get off the horse at all.

In the evening, after the tents were set up, Baili JinChuan frowned and looked at Shen Ninghua, who was sitting at the side with a calm expression. He let out a sigh and took out a box of Jade Body Cream from his chest pocket, handing it over, "This is a good medicine to rejuvenate the blood and remove blood stasis. Get your maid to apply some on you."

Shen Ninghua raised her head in shock, her bright black eyes landed on Baili JinChuan's hand, "No need, I have prepared my own medicine, thank you Second Prince."

"Take it when I tell you to." Baili JinChuan directly pulled up her sleeve, stuffed the ointment into her hand, and then quickly left.

Bai Yan placed the water at Shen Ninghua's feet and said worriedly, "Miss, please wash your face."

Shen Ninghua frowned as he looked at the ointment in his hand. He then handed it to the jade pearl beside him and said, "Put it away."

After Shen Ninghua finished washing her face and had tidied up the tent, Shen Ninghua went inside to rest. Bai Sui helped her pinch her legs and opened his mouth to speak, but then stopped.

Noticing her expression, Shen Ninghua asked, "What's wrong? If you have something to say, just say it."

Bai Yan smiled, "Perhaps this servant saw wrongly. Miss, don't worry too much. This servant always feels that the Second Prince is a little too concerned about the Young Miss."

Shen Ninghua's eyes moved as she lowered her eyelids slightly.

Seeing that she did not speak, Bai Yu felt slightly perturbed. "Perhaps this servant is overthinking things. Miss need not take it to heart."

Just when she thought Shen Ninghua wouldn't speak, she suddenly heard her say, "We've been keeping some distance from him for the past few days. We'll split up the Pingping City when the time comes."

"Yes, miss." Bai Yan responded and slowly left the tent.

The tent quieted down as Shen Ninghua lay down on his back. His eyes were clear without a trace of sleepiness as he said, "It seems I have to think of a way to avoid this."

The night passed quickly, and the sky began to brighten. Everyone packed up their tents and continued on their way. Unlike the day before, today, the guards and soldiers looked at Shen Ninghua with much more respect.

However, Shen Ninghua was completely oblivious to it. He mounted his horse and rode forward with the rest of the group.

Within the city of Ping Cheng, Chu Junyi was clad in a moon-white robe, with a shining sword in her hand. Blood dripped from the blade of the sword.

A brawny man sat on the ground and kept stepping back with his eyes wide open. "I don't dare anymore. I don't dare anymore. Please spare me."

The corner of Chu Junyi's lips curled up in a cold smile. "You deserve to die if you want to eat people," she said with a hint of a devilish aura around her unadorned features.

Then, he took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the blade clean before putting it back into his sheath. He walked two steps to the side and bent over to pick up a skinny young man: "Kid, are you still alive?"
