World-shaking First Daughter: Powerful Medical Princess

Chapter 121 - Becoming the Target



Chapter 121 Becoming the Target

In the palace.

With a gloomy face, Infanta Ceylon was practicing the whip in the yard. And the long and thick whip was flapping in the air.

“Bang!” Suddenly, the whip split the weapon shelf in half.

With a sneer, Infanta Ceylon withdrew the whip, returned to the room, and sat down.

Her maid hurriedly handed her a warm handkerchief to wipe her hands.

“Your Grace, you’re so brilliant. In the whole Chu, nobody can use the whip better than you do.” Qingyu was a maid Infanta Ceylon brought from the fiefdom to the capital. And she had followed her for the longest time.

Infanta Ceylon took a sip of tea. “Of course, the women in the capital are all so weak.”

With flickering eyes, Qingyu put the pastry on the table, withdrew her smile, and frowned slightly, “How dare someone be so bold to provoke Your Grace?! After His Majesty granted Su Muge and Second Prince a marriage, Su Muge became more supercilious. She even said that Your Grace was just…”

Infanta Ceylon put on a stern face. “Just what?!”

Qingyu pursed her lips and gritted her teeth, “She said that you’re just a paper tiger without much power and you can do nothing about her!”

“The bitch really said so!?” Infanta Ceylon was overwhelmed with anger.

“Yes, it has been known to many people. Your Grace, she is too rampant. Last time she hurt you on the street, you are generous and let her go. But she still dares to provoke you, Your Grace. She is unforgivable!”

“Su Muge, I’ll kill you!”

Just as Infanta Ceylon was walking out in rage, Qingyu stopped her. “Your Grace, don’t be mad. Su Muge must be hiding in Su Mansion and dare not show up now. If you go for her like this, I’m afraid His Royal Highness will blame you after knowing it… and His Majesty will also be hard to deal with.” After all, Su Muge was to become an imperial concubine now.

“Am I such a coward?!”

“I know you are brave, Your Grace. But … this is the capital, after all. I heard that Su Muge has bought a group of people outside …”

Infanta Ceylon calmed down and looked at her. “Make it clear.”

With dark and gloomy eyes, Qingyu whispered into her ear.

After a moment, Infanta Ceylon sneered. “Good! Very good!”

The next day.

Infanta Ceylon in a riding suit galloped on the street and stopped at an alley.

The guard behind her stepped forward, “Your Grace, they are in the house at the end of this alley.”

Infanta Ceylon revealed a cold smile and rode into the alley.

As soon as she reached the door, she could hear the sound of reading.

“Break in.”

“Yes.”

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

Cheng Ran, who was sorting things in the yard, heard the noise, stopped his work, and walked to the door.

“Who? Who is outside?”

“Bang!”

With a loud noise, the entire door was smashed to the ground.

Cheng Ran put on a sullen face and stared at Infanta Ceylon coming in on her horse with angry eyes.

The children who were having a class in the house were frightened by the noise outside, and they all gathered at the door.

Infanta Ceylon glanced at the children with an even gloomier smile.

“Who the hell are you?” Cheng Ran reproached coldly.

Infanta Ceylon raised her head and looked down at Cheng Yan as if he were an ant that could be crushed to death by her at any time. “Su Muge, is your master?”

Cheng Ran changed his face slightly. “Who are you?!”

“It seems to be true. Catch them all!”

“Yes!”

A dozen guards rushed forward to catch the children in the house.

“Ah…”

“How dare you?!”

Cheng Ran picked up a stick in the yard to resist the guards, but he was so weak that he was not an opponent of these guards at all. Soon, he was knocked down and clamped by a guard.

“I, I’m just a teacher. I don’t know anything. I don’t know anything …”

The teacher was so scared that he covered his head, squatted on the ground, and almost cried out.

In a while, all the children were caught, thrown into the yard, and tied up with rope.

“Woo woo …”

“Help me …”

“So noisy! Shut them up!”

“Yes!”

“You, what exactly do you want to do?!” With bleeding mouth, Cheng Ran gritted his teeth.

“What do I want to do? Just blame your master, Su Muge! Take them away!”

“Miss, oh, no!” Xinche ran in with a pale face.

Su Muge put down the chopsticks. “What’s up?”

“Cheng Cheng said that Cheng Ran and those children were arrested.”

“What? Where is Cheng Cheng?”

“He’s waiting in the wing-room at the back door.”

Su Muge stood up. “Let’s go.”

When Su Muge arrived at the wing-room, Cheng Cheng was curling up in the chair in fear. At the sight of Su Muge, his eyes immediately turned red and tearful.

“Miss, please, please save my brother and Dabao… Woo woo…” Cheng Cheng finally couldn’t help crying out as if he had had his dependence.

Su Muge pulled him into her arms, comforted him softly, and took out a handkerchief to wipe his tears.

“Don’t be afraid, good boy. Tell me what happened. What happened to your brother and Dabao?”

Hearing Su Muge’s soft voice, Cheng Cheng gradually calmed down. “Just now…”

He recounted what happened at that time.

“I had a stomachache and went to the toilet at the time. When I came back, I saw they had been caught. I was too afraid to go out. So, after they left, I hurriedly came to find you.”

After hearing his words, Su Muge put on a sullen face.

“You are doing very well, Cheng Cheng. You said they were led by a woman riding a horse with a whip?”

“Yes.”

She knew who she was!

Infanta Ceylon!

“Xinche, take the child back to Peachblossom Courtyard and pacify him.”

“Yes.”

Xinche stepped forward, held his small and trembling hand, and said softly, “Don’t be afraid, the eldest Miss will rescue your brothers.”

“Thank you, Miss.”

Yueru followed Su Muge with a pale face.

“Miss, it’s, it’s Infanta Ceylon?”

Su Muge nodded solemnly.

“Miss, what shall we do?”

“Be prepared. I’m going to the palace.”

Yueru was worried. “It’s too dangerous for you to go alone. Let me go with you!”

Su Muge looked at her helplessly. “You are of no help to go with me. Just wait for me at home.”

Su Muge went back to her room, carried the silver needle, the poison powder and the sleeve arrow, and went out of Su Mansion.

Infanta Ceylon caught her people with such great fanfare; she wanted Su Muge to take the initiative to come for her.

Just as the carriage stopped outside the palace, Su Muge jumped off and caught sight of Infanta Ceylon who was standing outside the palace and looking at her with a smile.

“You’re so quick.”

Su Muge said with cold eyes. “Your target is me. Let them go!”

Infanta Ceylon smiled disdainfully. “Who do you think you are? Why should I listen to you?!”

Su Muge gritted her teeth, “What do you want?”

Infanta Ceylon pointed to a dark red carriage parked outside the palace. “You’ll know after getting into the carriage.”

Su Muge clenched her hands tightly; she had to do as she said.

Seeing her getting into the carriage, Infanta Ceylon mounted her horse and left the palace.

The carriage galloped on the street at a fast speed and went out of the city gate.

The carriage stopped slowly in a barren place.

“Get off.”

Su Muge lifted the carriage curtain and saw Infanta Ceylon standing outside.

“What do you want to do?”

Infanta Ceylon laughed proudly. “Of course … to make you go to hell.”

If it had not been in the capital, she would have already killed Su Muge. Although Infanta Ceylon was rough, she knew the stakes. With so many monitoring eyes in the palace, she could only make great efforts to take her out of the city.

“Go up the mountain.”

Su Muge didn’t move. “Tell me, where are my people?”

“On the mountain.”

Su Muge tightened her lips and walked up the mountain.

After half an hour, they stopped in the woods.

“Bring them out.” At the order of Infanta Ceylon, the people hidden in the woods escorted Cheng Ran and the children out.

Seeing Cheng Ran with a bruised face, Su Muge shrank her pupils.

“Miss …”

Su Muge looked at Infanta Ceylon.

“Tell me, how will you let them go?”

“I suddenly want to practice archery, but there is no target. Su Muge, what do you say?”

Su Muge said with cold eyes, “What do you want to do?”

Infanta Ceylon smiled viciously. “You have two choices; you serve as my target, or you choose one of them to be my target. What do you say?”

After looking at the frightened children, Su Muge closed her eyes and took a deep breath. “Okay, I’ll be your target!”

“The future imperial concubine serves as the target for me. I must practice hard. Bring me the bow.

“Yes.”

“Su Muge, stand under that tree.”

“No, Missy, don’t go. Let me be the target …” Cheng Ran shouted with red eyes staring at Su Muge.

Infanta Ceylon frowned unpleasantly. “Too noisy.”

The guard standing beside Cheng Ran raised his hand and punched him in his face.

“Ouch!” Cheng Ran fell to the ground.

“Cheng Ran!”

“Shut up if you are wise; otherwise, this is your burial ground.”

Infanta Ceylon held the bow in her hand, gradually pulled it to its full, and targeted at Su Muge who was standing ten meters away.

“Su Muge, where do you want this arrow to be shot? Your head? Or your chest?”

As soon as she finished her words, the arrow in her hand flew out and spurted straight into Su Muge’s head.

Su Muge clenched her fists, staring at the arrow which was too fast to be seen with the naked eye.

With a “cheep” sound, the sharp arrow pierced her clothes…
