150: Dai Dabai's plan
“Hey, hey, hey, don’t go! I really have something extremely important this time. It concerns whether we can successfully complete the mission!” Dai Dabai quickly said, seeing Zhu Zhu about to leave.
“Then hurry up and get to the point, don’t dawdle!” Zhu Zhu frowned.
“Hmm, this matter is about the Zhang Family’s supervisor!”
“Supervisor… are you talking about Empress Dowager She?! Isn’t she not involved in these things?” Zhu Zhu said, a little confused.
“She indeed isn’t involved, but if you and I Move to dig up that Spiritual Root when that batch of immortal spirit grass matures, that Empress Dowager will definitely stop us. What should we do then?”
“This…” Zhu Zhu also didn’t know what to do.
That was a rare Spiritual Root capable of nurturing a whole bunch of immortal spirit grass, a supreme treasure that any Family would soar to the sky with if they obtained it! No one wouldn’t be tempted, including Zhu Zhu.
“So, for the smooth progress of our mission, she must be eliminated by us!”
“I understand.” Zhu Zhu replied coldly.
“But how do we eliminate her? She has Soul Transformation cultivation. Do you think you and I are her opponents?”
“Don’t say that, you really shouldn’t say that. As long as the two of us use our Fusion skill, it’s truly hard to say who will win or lose!” Dai Dabai said with full confidence.
“You’d better give up on that idea. I’d rather die than use that Move with you!” Zhu Zhu’s expression grew even colder.
“Alright then, since you’re unwilling to cooperate, we can only use other Moves.”
“Just speak directly if you have something to say, don’t beat around the bush with me!”
“Alright, alright. As far as I know, that Empress Dowager seems to be seeking medical attention everywhere recently, as if she has some physical problems… If that’s the case, we have room to maneuver.”
“She has already found a doctor. She is currently undergoing treatment during this period, so you’d better not harbor that thought!” Zhu Zhu sneered.
“Oh? So you’ve secretly investigated this Empress Dowager too! It seems there’s quite a bit of unspoken understanding between us!” Dai Dabai looked at Zhu Zhu in surprise.
“Hmph, don’t, don’t think you’re the only one who’s used their brain!” Zhu Zhu’s expression was a little unnatural.
Because she wasn’t investigating the Empress Dowager, but rather that so-called Imperial Physician Chen! The Empress Dowager’s matter was something she accidentally learned while investigating Imperial Physician Chen.
“Then aren’t we just kindred spirits, hahahaha!”
“What exactly do you want to do?”
“Since there’s a problem with the Empress Dowager, then only the imperial physician who treats her knows all her conditions. Therefore, we need to get in touch with that imperial physician!” A glint flashed in Dai Dabai’s eyes.
“How do we get in touch?”
“I’ve investigated, this imperial physician is quite upright and difficult to bribe. His only weakness is that he’s lecherous!”
“And this Empress Dowager, catering to his preferences, even had the empress from the previous-previous reign personally step in…!”
“What?!” Zhu Zhu was a little surprised.
So the person she saw that day was actually the empress from the previous-previous reign! No wonder she claimed to be a madam at the time, she didn’t want to be exposed!
“But that doesn’t make sense, does it? She was from the previous-previous reign, shouldn’t she be an Empress Dowager? How did she fall to this point?”
“That’s their Zhang Family’s internal matter. I’m too lazy to ask more.”
“What do you mean by telling me this?”
“Naturally, your empress…”
Before Dai Dabai could finish speaking, Zhu Zhu instantly pulled out a dagger and pointed it fiercely at him.
“Don’t talk nonsense, or I’ll let you know what regret feels like!” Zhu Zhu’s gaze was icy cold.
“Cough cough, calm down, I was just making a joke, no other meaning!” Dai Dabai immediately cowered.
“Hmph, don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking!” Zhu Zhu snorted coldly.
“Zhu Zhu, don’t get agitated, I really didn’t mean that! Am I the kind of person who would push his own woman out? Me!” Dai Dabai waved his hands frantically, scared.
“Then what do you mean?” Zhu Zhu’s Killing Intent did not diminish.
“I mean, your noble empress can also use her beauty to make that Imperial Physician Chen unconsciously fall for you!” Dai Dabai explained nervously.
“Isn’t that the same thing?!”
“No, no, no, I understand men. The more unattainable something is, the more they want to obtain it. So you just need to keep him on a string, and if you don’t know how, I can teach you!”
Only then did Zhu Zhu put away her dagger, but her Face remained grim: “What about you? You don’t have anything to do?!”
“Cough cough, I’m a man, so of course he wouldn’t be interested. And if I were present, wouldn’t he not even dare to look up? So I’ll just focus on my Sect Tournament!” Dai Dabai chuckled.
“What’s the prize for the winner of that tournament you mentioned?”
“The winner, well, I’ll let him be my attendant. That’s already a huge prize!” Dai Dabai said arrogantly.
“I can try, but I can’t guarantee success!”
“That’s fine, at worst, we just won’t get that Spiritual Root! I originally planned to give that unknown Spiritual Root to your Family as your betrothal gift!”
“Alright, if there’s nothing else, I’m leaving!” Zhu Zhu turned and left directly after speaking.
Looking at Zhu Zhu’s departing figure, Dai Dabai smiled confidently.
“Little girl, I’m offering you this rare Spiritual Root, and I still can’t win you over? When the Empress Dowager truly recovers her full strength, if you want to obtain this Spiritual Root, you’ll only be able to use that Fusion technique with me. At that time… the Spiritual Root and you, both will be mine!”
“And you, you damned Empress Dowager, yesterday at my enthronement ceremony, you actually dared not to come, disrespecting my Face. You must pay the price!” Dai Dabai’s expression was gloomy.
“Forget it, I’d better go see the noble ladies from the families of those princes and nobles. That annoying woman Zhu Zhu has something to do now, so she won’t have time to bother me!”
As for whether anything would go wrong on Zhu Zhu’s side, that was absolutely impossible.
…
That afternoon, Chen Xuan received a summons from Empress Zhu Zhu.
“Imperial Physician Chen, that’s the empress’s palace ahead. Her Majesty the Empress only invited you alone, so I won’t be going in!”
“Thank you, Eunuch. I’ll go in now!” Chen Xuan cupped his hands and went alone to Zhu Zhu’s palace.
Upon arriving at the palace where Zhu Zhu was, Chen Xuan’s first glance fell upon Zhu Zhu, dressed in magnificent palace attire.
