Chapter 125 - 125 Threat
125 Threat
The queen glared at Nie Yin with an expression that said she would kill whoever dared to stop her.
Nie Yin wasn’t frightened by the queen and only advised softly, “Now that the princess is sick, if you kill all these spiritual doctors, who will dare to treat the princess?”
“If you let them live for the time being, at least they can come up with a way to protect the princess’ life!” Nie Yin kept his head lowered while waiting for the queen to change her mind.
The queen seemed to have taken Nie Yin’s words to heart. She instructed coldly, “Drag these spiritual doctors away and flog each of them fifty times. Then drag them back to continue treating the princess!”
As Wen Qiong lay on the bed in a daze, she heard Nie Yin’s voice and reached out to feel around.
At this moment, she could hear but couldn’t speak. Tears streamed down her face, but Nie Yin seemed to have no intention of going forward. He only said to the queen, “I heard that the Li family suffered a huge incident today and something happened to the princess. Have you thought about how to resolve this matter?”
The queen’s expression turned ugly when she heard Nie Yin’s words.
The Nie family was simply here to add insult to injury!
The Li family’s ancestral hall had been destroyed, so the queen couldn’t use a secret technique to let Wen Qiong recover. She could only wait for Yin Ling to bring the thing back and see if she could find a more suitable treatment.
As the faction behind the queen, the Li family had encountered such a big incident. Wen Qiong was also injured at the same time. It was obvious that someone was targeting the Li family and the queen!
The Nie family still had marital agreements with the royal family, so it was understandable for them to come and help. However, the elder of the Nie family had come early in the morning to advise the queen that the Nie family could help the royal family, but he asked the royal family to cede ownership of Spirit Mountain.
How could the queen agree to this request? Not only did she immediately reject the request, but she also expressed her dissatisfaction with the fact that Nie Yin hadn’t visited since Wen Qiong’s accident.
Now that Nie Yin was here, he was clearly waiting for the queen’s reply!
The queen gritted her teeth. “We’ll talk about Spirit Mountain later. Do you have a way to treat the princess?”
Nie Yin glanced at Wen Qiong, who was trying her best to reach out in his direction, and nodded. “The Nie family has a secret technique that can quickly heal people with serious injuries. However, the process of this secret technique is very painful, and the treatment effect will vary from person to person.”
From Nie Yin’s phrasing, it was obvious that whether or not Wen Qiong could be treated was hard to say.
When the queen heard this, although she was angry, with Wen Qiong’s current situation, she could only try her best!
She was about to agree to Nie Yin’s suggestion when she heard Nie Yin say, “In addition, I hope Your Highness can agree to…”
The queen frowned slightly and cursed Nie Yin for raising conditions again and again at this time. He was deliberately making things difficult for her. However, the queen knew that no matter what she lost, it wasn’t as important as Wen Qiong’s life!
Seeing that the queen didn’t stop him from continuing, Nie Yin said again, “Please terminate the marital agreement between the Nie family and the royal family!”
Hearing Nie Yin’s words, the queen was immediately furious. Wen Qiong, who was on the bed, also roared.
Now, she couldn’t speak, so she could only make loud whimpers, accompanied by sobs, to express her protest.
The queen turned to look at Wen Qiong before saying to Nie Yin, “What if I don’t agree?”
Nie Yin smiled. “It’s already very difficult to implement the Nie family’s secret technique. If anything happens midway…”
“Are you threatening me?” The queen’s eyes widened as she stared fixedly at Nie Yin.
Nie Yin immediately shook his head and smiled. “I wouldn’t dare to, but please consider which matter is more important!”
The queen turned around again and looked at Wen Qiong with heartache, but she still nodded at Nie Yin.
It was fine to call off this engagement, but Wen Qiong’s life had to be saved. She was her only daughter!
