Chapter 241 Can I not take this poison?
Jin Mudan was caught off guard and her forehead hit the corner of the table, causing a big bump to appear instantly.
"Princess!"
The palace maids and guards outside the door rushed in.
"I am fine."
But she couldn't help feeling a little aggrieved. Although Mo Lingchen didn't know that she was Golden Peony, being treated so roughly and the clear pain on her forehead were her true feelings.
"The prince consort has gone too far. How dare he lay hands on the princess?"
"This old servant will go to the palace and report to Concubine Jing, and let Her Majesty make the decision for you."
Chu Qinghe's wet nurse couldn't bear it anymore. Looking at the bump on her forehead, she felt so distressed.
"Nanny, don't go."
"My mother has been troubled a lot recently, so please don't bother her with such a small matter."
"My dear Prince Consort, it was not intentional. I fell accidentally."
The nurse was still dissatisfied: "Even if the princess fell herself, the prince consort can't just ignore it."
"Princess, are you just allowing your servants to stir up trouble like this?" Mo Lingchen's cold voice was heard at the door.
The wet nurse was so frightened that she trembled all over. The eldest son of the prime minister's family was not someone that a servant like her could manipulate at will.
Jin Mudan didn't expect Mo Lingchen to come back with a medicine box in his hand.
"Everyone, get off." The man ordered.
The servants did not dare to disobey, so Mo Lingchen personally applied the medicine to her and then carried the woman back to the bedroom.
Jin Mudan watched him leave, grabbed the man's sleeve, and said pitifully: "Can you stay with me tonight?"
"Ah."
The man nodded indifferently, and only added: "I'll get you some candied fruit."
Jin Mudan's face turned pale, because the candied fruit had been soaked in something highly poisonous.
Chu Qinghe likes to eat sweets, so Mo Lingchen personally coaxes her into eating a candied fruit every night, poisoning her for a long time.
She held onto the man's sleeve and refused to let go: "I don't want to eat tonight."
"obedient."
Mo Lingchen pushed away her hand that was tightly grasping his sleeve and left indifferently.
When the man came back, he had an exquisite little jar in his hand, and he poured out a crystal clear, colorful preserved fruit from it.
He personally took the candied fruit and fed it to the woman's mouth, and Jin Mudan's face turned pale.
She couldn't continue eating, as it would speed up her death.
Jiaojiao said that if Mo Lingchen continued to poison her, she might not even survive for three months.
She doesn't want to die so soon, she hasn't lived enough!
Jin Mudan turned her face away and clearly refused: "I don't want to eat."
“I don’t want to eat it anymore.”
Mo Lingchen's expression remained unchanged, but his voice softened considerably: "Why are you suddenly acting so petty?"
"Don't you love this store's preserves the most? And you said you can't sleep at night without something sweet?"
"I do not want to eat."
The man didn't give up: "Do you want me to feed you?"
As he spoke, he actually put the candied fruit in his mouth and then moved it close to hers.
Jin Mudan was so frightened that she knocked the candied fruit out of his mouth. With a look of anger on her face, she growled, "Are you crazy? Are you so desperate to poison me that you don't even care about your own life?"
Mo Lingchen's face turned pale and he looked at her in surprise, thinking he had misheard.
"What did you say?"
"Who is talking nonsense to you?"
Jin Mudan simply laid it bare to him, to prevent him from not feeding her candied fruit in the future and changing to other methods of poisoning, which would be impossible to guard against.
"When Su Yujiao was treating my gynecological illness, she diagnosed me with a severe poison and found it incurable."
"She said it was my karma."
"I thought about it and the problem can only occur with this candied fruit."
"I know you hate me. You've always wanted to kill me to avenge Jin Mudan."
Mo Lingchen's face turned pale and he felt panicked for a moment. He didn't know how to deal with the situation next.
Poisoning the princess is a crime punishable by the death of nine generations of the clan!
He had originally planned to destroy all the candied fruits after a few days.
Anyway, Chu Qinghe was already beyond redemption by then, and no one else could trace it back to him!
The man's expression suddenly changed. "I am solely responsible for my actions. Princess, you can kill me or chop me up as you wish."
Jin Mudan sat on the bed and looked at him, her tone flat: "I won't kill you. Killing you won't change my hopeless fate."
"I just want you to stop poisoning me in the future."
"I don't blame you, nor will I implicate your family, and I won't let anyone know that you poisoned me."
"I just hope that in the next six months, you can spend more time with me and be an ordinary couple with me."
Mo Lingchen suddenly looked up and looked at her in surprise, his eyes very complicated.
He thought of many possibilities, but he never thought that she would say such words with such an attitude.
How is this possible?
Why is she like this?
He wanted to kill her, but she... didn't blame him?
Is she playing some trick?
But...is it necessary?
She was a princess high above everyone else, and it would only take her a word to kill him.
He really couldn't understand what she was thinking!
"What on earth do you want to do?"
"That's not like you!"
"Not only you, no one would be so calm facing such a thing."
Jin Mudan smiled helplessly: "What else can we do if it's not peaceful?"
"If I kill you, I can live?"
"There's nothing I can do now except accept it."
"Now that you've accepted it, do what you want to do."
"I just want to be with you now and be a loving couple."
Mo Lingchen kept staring into her eyes. Her gaze was sincere and gentle, without a trace of falsehood.
"You...don't you hate me?"
"I don't hate you. After all, what I did before was also excessive."
"If I were you, I would do the same."
"Maybe it's because I've died once, so I can always be open-minded."
Jin Mudan yawned and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. I'm a little sleepy."
"Will you stay with me?"
Mo Lingchen looked at her wet and expectant eyes with complicated emotions, and seemed to be at a loss as to how to respond.
How could they possibly get along peacefully with each other?
They are lifelong enemies!
The current way of getting along is obviously wrong.
"Are you afraid that I might attack you at night?"
"How about you tie my hands?"
"Are you afraid of me?"
Jin Mudan put her hands together and raised them in front of the man, making a gesture of surrender.
Mo Lingchen glanced at her, his brows cold and indifferent: "Since the princess knows everything, there is no need for us to act anymore."
"We can only be enemies and are destined to never be a loving couple."
"It's impossible in this life, and even more impossible in the next life."
Jin Mudan hugged his waist from behind and wouldn't let him go.
"I know you hate me. You won't let me have my wish. Even if you die, you must let me go with regret."
"But you still have family you care about."
"If you don't let me have my wish, I won't let you have your wish either."
"My request is simple. If you stay with me, I will protect your family."
"If you don't agree, then I can only choose to die together with you!"
