Empress Running Away with the Ball! Chapter 495-496

Chapter 495: Why did no one believe him

It was not strange for him to examine the Empress Dowager and the emperor.  Not to mention the Ding Yuan Princess being sick, even if King Ding Yuan was sick, he did not need to personally come.

But being held by the neck and threatened by King Ding Yuan was a great insult to him.  He was not scared of Chu Shao Yang at all.

When Chu Shao Yang heard this, he couldn't help gritting his teeth and angrily glaring at him, "This old piece of garbage, what did you say!"

The old doctor did not even look at him and cupped his hands to the Eldest Princess before saying, "Eldest Princess, this old man will return to the palace and report to the Empress Dowager, so I'll be leaving first."

"Someone come and send doctor Zhang out."

The Eldest Princess was very respectful to this old doctor, sending someone to respectfully send the old doctor to the cart returning to the palace.

Turning around, she coldly looked at Chu Shao Yang, "Shao Yang, you heard what the doctor said and this princess does not want to repeat it.  If you really want what's best for Ning'er, then leave this place first. When Ning'er has recovered, you can come back to see her. Someone send this guest out!"

Although the scene of Chu Shao Yang feeding Chen Ning medicine had moved her, thinking of what the old doctor said, she could only steel her heart and send Chu Shao Yang away.

Chu Shao Yang's face turned red and his handsome face filled with anger.  However, he suppressed it and said in a calm voice, "Royal aunt, you believe that old piece of garbage's words?  He was clearly sent by the emperor. This king does not believe a single word from him."

"This princess trusts doctor Zhang's character, he is not a person who would give false diagnosis because he received benefits.  This princess believe his words and Ning'er might not want to see you for now. If you really want the best for her, why are you so anxious?  There is time in the future, you should know what these words mean."

The Eldest Princess honestly advised him.

Chu Shao Yang was silently thinking as he looked at the unconscious Chen Ning.  Being silent like that, she seemed like she was sleeping, like she was made of snow, stirring people's hearts.

His heart felt tight as a sense of soreness filled his heart, creating an indescribable pain.

He really just wanted to take care of her, why did not one believe him!  Even his royal aunt that loved him the most did not believe him!

Why!

Her persistent refusal to wake up, could it really be because of him?

She didn't want to see him?

Impossible!

He clearly saw what he wanted to see in her eyes.

"Alright, royal aunt, I'll leave.  I'll trouble you to take good care of her.  Tell her later that this king will come back tomorrow to see her."

He took one last deep look at her before turning around to leave without looking back once.

The moment he turned around, the Eldest Princess found that Chen Ning's long lashes fluttered like b.u.t.terfly wings, slightly trembling.

Could it be…..She had already woken up?

She did not say a thing as she sat down by the bed, quietly looking at Chen Ning who seemed like she was sleeping.

Until Chu Shao Yang's footsteps could not be heard anymore, she finally gave a gentle sigh.

"You can all leave."  She waved her hand and all the maids in the room left.

The room was silent with only her and Chen Ning left.  Only the sound of their breathing could be heard.

"He's already gone.  Ning'er, you can wake up."  She said in a warm voice.

Chen Ning's eyebrows slowly rose.  Her eyes seemed like it held some confusion, like water with ripples.

She slowly sat up and looked at the Eldest Princess with an apologetic gaze, "I've worried the Eldest Princess."

Chapter 496: Ruin everything

Holding her hand and speaking in a voice that didn't mind anything, "Ning'er, tell this princess, why did you suddenly faint?  Did you deliberately faint because you didn't want to see him?"

"I didn't do it on purpose.  I suddenly felt my heart panic and I couldn't breathe, then I didn't know what was happening."

Chen Ning looked into the Eldest Princess' eyes, speaking in a serious voice with calm eyes.

She did not lie.  Before she had fainted, a sudden pain in her heart had made taken away her breath and had made her sudden lose consciousness.

It was really strange.

She lifted her hand to her heart and felt that her fast heartbeat had returned to normal and her breathing had also calmed down.

Not long after Chu Shao Yang finished feeding her, she had already woke up.

She wanted to open her heart immediately, but once she heard Chu Shao Yang's voice, she did not want to wake up and continued to keep her eyes closed.

She did not want to see him and did not want to hear his voice.  As long as he spoke those pa.s.sionate words and looked at her with those pa.s.sionate eyes, her heart would strangely be moved and she would find it hard to breathe.

The Eldest Princess nodded and patted the back of her hand as she said, "Ning'er, if you don't want to see him, this princess can give an order to not let him enter the palace.  You can just live in this palace forever. However, I feel that Chu Shao Yang is truly sincere towards you. Perhaps he has done some things wrong, but can you really not forgive him?

Forgive him?  How could she forgive him?

Chen Ning bit her lips.  She had been moved by him before and had forgiven him for everything he did, but then he treated her even more roughly.

He kept talking about love, but to possess and claim her, he did not give her any respect at all!

If this was his, Chu Shao Yang's love, she couldn't afford it and didn't want it.

"Alright, you don't need to say anything, this princess understands.  I'll give the order and will not let him take even half a step into my princess' palace!"

The Eldest Princess could guess her thoughts with a single glance.  She felt sorry for Chu Shao Yang, but she also felt worried for Chen Ning.

Chu Shao Yang's love was strong, but his hate was just as strong.  If he knew that the thing he chased after could not be his, he might just ruin her!

It seemed like she needed to deploy more people to watch over Chen Ning, not letting Chu Shao Yang gain any advantage over her.

But Chu Shao Yang's martial arts was very good and if she compared the guards in her palace to Chu Shao Yang's, there was no difference.  If Chu Shao Yang really came, she would not be able to stop him..

Thinking about it, she only had one method!

She would have her royal brother send soldiers!

This matter originally was caused by him, so naturally it would fall on him to solve it!

The Eldest Princess wrote a letter and sent someone to immediately deliver it to the palace.

Then she stayed with Chen Ning.  The two of them talked and it became late without them knowing about it.

"Yi, where's Xiao Ru?"  Chen Ning suddenly realized that Xiao Ru wasn't by her side.

"Your little maid?"  The Eldest Princess thought about it and said, "That's right, she was pulled out into the yard by the little eunuch by my royal brother's side named Xiao Si.  Thinking about it, it's been a while, but why aren't they back yet?"

"Xiao Si?"

Chen Ning's heart skipped a beat.

It really was whatever was feared naturally came.  She never had thought about how to explain the matter of Xiao Si to Xiao Ru, but she never thought that Xiao Si would appear here.
