Chapter 263 Jin Mudan's condition worsens
"Your Highness should also know that this year has been plagued by natural and man-made disasters. The surrounding small countries have united and taken the opportunity to launch a surprise attack."
"The Emperor has dispatched all the available generals. There is really no one left."
"Your grandfather recommended you. General Qin said that you have been familiar with military books since childhood and learned some impressive martial arts from him."
"The court is currently in a critical situation. Since you have the talent to fight, you should help the emperor."
Mo Lingchen frowned, he had a vague impression of this elder.
He heard from his mother that his grandfather did not agree with his mother marrying his father, but his mother insisted on getting married and they severed all ties from then on.
As far as he could remember, whenever his mother took him back to visit his grandfather, he was always turned away.
Later, his mother passed away and he never saw his grandfather again.
Now, why did this elder suddenly mention him?
Although he had read military books and knew some martial arts, he had nothing to do with his grandfather.
But the imperial edict had already been issued, and there was absolutely no reason for him to disobey it, so he had to bite the bullet and do it.
"Please ask your Highness to go to the barracks immediately and meet up with Lieutenant General Li. After you have selected the troops, we will set out overnight."
"Well, thank you, Eunuch Wei."
"I'll go to the palace to say goodbye to the princess, and then go to the military camp."
"It's as I should. After all, the princess is seriously ill, alas..."
As soon as Eunuch Wei left, Xiaobei rushed in: "Master, Miss Xiaotao said that Miss Mudan is not well."
Mo Lingchen's face changed and he rushed out in a hurry, only to see Xiao Tao anxiously wandering at the door of the princess's mansion.
"What happened to Peony?"
"Miss Mudan suddenly started bleeding from her mouth and nose. I don't know what happened."
"But unfortunately, the young lady was invited to the palace by Princess Qinghe. I can't enter the palace, and the general has left the capital, so I can only come to you."
Mo Lingchen's face changed drastically. He hurriedly told Xiaobei to go find Doctor Hu from Ji'an Hall first, while he went into the palace to find Su Yujiao.
Let Xiaotao go back and take care of Mudan first!
After giving the order, Mo Lingchen rode his horse straight into the palace and had to stop only when he reached the palace gate.
At this time, Jin Mudan just found an opportunity to talk to Su Yujiao alone.
"Jiaojiao, no matter what I say later, don't be surprised and don't make any noise."
Seeing her so serious, Su Yujiao also became serious.
"Well, you said."
"Princess Jing is not the real princess of the Xiaonan clan. Her true identity is a princess of the previous dynasty."
"She pretended to be the Xiaonan princess and entered the palace in order to restore the country. The real Xiaonan princess may have died long ago."
"Moreover, Chu Zhongyuan is not the emperor's child, but the son of Concubine Jing and her adulterer."
"They want Chu Zhongyuan to inherit the throne and revive the Great Zhou."
"I was walking in the back garden yesterday and overheard it. It was Concubine Jing who said it herself."
Although Su Yujiao was mentally prepared, she still couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh my God!"
"This...how is this possible?"
"This news is shocking."
The two were talking in whispers when Qiuyue's voice suddenly came from the door: "Prince Consort, you cannot enter without the princess's order."
Jin Mudan's heart skipped a beat. Why did he come here suddenly?
It’s so late, could something have happened?
"Let the Prince Consort come in..."
Before Jin Mudan finished her words, the door to the bedroom was kicked open by someone, and it was obvious that the person had ill intentions.
Jin Mudan looked at the man's anxious expression and asked hurriedly, "What happened?"
Mo Lingchen glared at Chu Qinghe fiercely, gritting his teeth in hatred: "Chu Qinghe, if anything happens to Mudan, I will kill you with my own hands."
Hearing his words, both of them were stunned.
Su Yujiao was the first to ask, "What happened to Mudan?"
"Come with me."
"Tell me on the way."
"Mudan suddenly started bleeding from her mouth and nose, and her condition is critical..."
Jin Mudan stood there, watching the two people disappearing from the back, listening to the last words of Mo Lingchen.
Suddenly, you start bleeding from all seven orifices of your body?
Is it because I am about to die?
She had originally fantasized that after her death, if God continued to bless her, perhaps her soul could return to her body?
Now it seems that I was too greedy.
How can people be lucky forever!
Once you die, you are dead. There is no way there will be so many miracles!
When Concubine Jing learned that Mo Lingchen came late at night and got angry at her daughter, she hurried over.
"He'er, what happened?"
"What's wrong with Mo Lingchen?"
"Even if he's in a bad mood, he shouldn't get angry at you."
"The imperial edict was issued by the emperor. What does it have to do with you? You are such a fool."
"Mother told you a long time ago that you can't spoil him too much."
Jin Mudan reacted and asked in confusion, "What imperial edict?"
Concubine Jing was stunned: "Don't you know that he is going to lead the army to war?"
"What?" Jin Mudan was startled.
"Why would he be sent to fight? Isn't he a civilian?"
Concubine Jing looked at her daughter's anxious and worried face and said in a pretentious tone, "Mother also just learned about this matter."
"I haven't had time to ask your father yet."
"Your father has gone to bed, and your mother dare not disturb him."
"But I've already sent someone to ask Wei Zhong. He should know."
Soon the palace maid beside Concubine Jing came back and told her in detail the news she had heard.
When Jin Mudan learned that he was leaving tonight, she didn't care about anything else and immediately left the palace to see him.
Concubine Jing couldn't stop it, and in fact she didn't want to stop it.
Although she was the one who plotted against Mo Lingchen, she didn't want her daughter to have any regrets before she left.
She is dying anyway, so just let her go.
"You two go prepare the carriage and take care of the princess."
"Yes."
Soon, the carriage arrived at a small courtyard in the east of the city, and Chu Qinghe entered the courtyard with the help of the two men.
Although no one in the courtyard welcomed her, no one dared to stop her because of her status as a princess.
When I entered the yard, I found that many people were waiting at the door of the ward, and only Su Yujiao was inside.
"What are you doing here?" Mo Lingchen's face was gloomy, and his eyes were filled with endless hatred.
"How dare you disrespect the princess." Qiuyue and Qiuxia scolded together.
Jin Mudan asked them all to go out and wait at the gate, and no one was allowed to come in without her permission.
Although the two were worried, they did not dare to disobey the princess.
Without the support of the two palace maids, Jin Mudan was a little unsteady on her feet, and Xiaotao and the Wei sisters naturally would not step forward to support her.
Su Yujiao was concentrating on first aid in the ward and had no idea what was happening outside.
Jin Mudan seemed to have lost the strength to speak. She took two steps forward and reached out to hold onto the wall.
"Are you going to war soon?"
"Can you please not go? I don't want you to take risks."
Jin Mudan felt a little dizzy and subconsciously wanted to reach out and grab something, but the man waved his hand away in disgust.
"Ah..." The woman fell heavily to the ground and couldn't get up after struggling for a long time.
Mo Lingchen did not feel sympathy, but felt even more disgusted. He did not push her away, he just did not want her to touch him.
She was lying on the ground like she was dying. Who was she pretending to be for?
