Empress Running Away with the Ball! - Chapter 1023

Chapter 1023 It’s a Deal

“Emp…… Emperor, Emp……eror……” Zhuifeng stammered as he looked at Mochuan. His face looked as if he had eaten a bitter melon. He wanted to ask if he could take the words that he said back.

It wasn’t that he had no confidence in himself. But if the Empress really lost a hair, how was he going to explain to the Emperor?!

“Okay. This matter is settled then. Zhuifeng, go prepare the horse carriage and luggage. We will set off tomorrow at dawn.”

Chen Ning spoke first and didn’t let Zhuifeng renege.

Zhuifeng thought that Xiao Si was correct. His head really was made of wood. He couldn’t help but look at Mochuan, but Mochuan didn’t even look at him.

“Why aren’t you leaving, Zhuifeng?!” Mochuan said.

“Ah! Yes!”

Zhuifeng rounded his eyes in disbelief. The Emperor was really letting him protect the Empress alone to seek the godly doctor?

But he didn’t dare to refuse. His neck stiffened as he received the order. He looked back and glared fiercely at Xiao Si, who was making funny faces at him, before leaving.

Chen Ning slowly walked over to the bed and stared at the unconscious Chu Shaobai.

She half knelt in front of the bed. She reached out and gently stroked Chu Shaobai’s white cheek. She slowly said, “Shaobai, believe me. I will definitely bring the godly doctor here to treat you. You have to wait for me to come back.

“I’m going to count to three. If you don’t say anything, then that means that you agree. You can’t renege. One, two, three. All right. Time is up! Then it’s a deal. No matter what, you have to wait for me to come back.

“I know that you can hold on, right, Shaobai?”

Chu Shaobai lied there quietly. There wasn’t the slightest expression on his face. His eyebrows didn’t even twitch.

Crystal drops of tears fell onto his face.

Chen Ning looked up. There was a new smile on her face covered with tears.

“Shaobai, you always keep your word. Since you have promised me, then you must do as you say. If you dare to die before I come back, then I will never forgive you. Not in this lifetime, not in the next lifetime, and not in the next, next lifetime!”

She wiped her tears off, stood up, and looked hard at Chu Shaobai.

“Imperial Physician Zhang, please keep him alive no matter what. I will definitely bring the godly doctor here to save him. Please.” She bowed to Imperial Physician Zhang.

“Empress, this old official does not deserve this. This old official will do everything possible to keep Jingan Wang’s life. This old official wishes that Empress will have a successful trip!” Imperial Physician Zhang hurriedly knelt down. His expression was scared and excited.

He had heard about Chen Ning’s brilliant mind. He thought that maybe she really had a way to invite the godly doctor here.

He began to get excited when he thought that he might be lucky enough to meet the world-famous godly doctor.

“Ning’er, come back to the Palace with me now. I have something to tell you.” Mochuan wrapped his arm around her waist and started leading her away. Before leaving, he said, “Xiao Si, stay here. Report any news to me immediately!”

“Yes, Emperor.” Xiao Si immediately answered. He glanced out the dark window and had infinite sympathy for Zhuifeng.

The two people returned to the Palace. Mochuan closed the door and stared at Chen Ning without saying a word.

“Mochuan, I have to go. I…… I can’t let Shaobai lie there like a living dead person. I have to try if there is even a glimmer of hope!”

She knew that Mochuan was angry, but she still insisted on her decision.
