Chapter 223 Turmoil
“I’m just an ordinary husband . ” Lu Wuyi wanted to refuse .
“If you were really an ordinary husband, you would not show up here,” Qin Yunuan said with her cold and clear eyes . She seemed to have perceived each kind of subtle emotion in the heart of Lu Wuyi, “Though Lu Family had been working on medicine for nine generations, your family suffered a lot in the period of the last emperor . Your family made a vow that the descendent of Lu Family should not serve the imperial court any longer . You went to Jinling and became a military doctor, which violated the rule made by your ancestor . I almost know why you did that and for whom you did that . ”
Lu Wuyi felt a little bit stunned . He had lurked in the army for such a long time and did the investigation secretly . All he did aimed to…
“You regarded your elder male cousin Su as your master because you wanted to know how he died,” Qin Yunuan disclosed the truth . Having seen the panic Lu Wuyi, Qin Yunuan knew that her guess was totally correct, “I can tell you the truth . At that moment, the Leng Army got assaulted suddenly and was trapped in the Yueya Mountain . For the interests of the whole, elder male cousin Su took a risk to disguise Changxi to attract the army of East Qin away . The marching plan was very confidential and well-considered, but it was so strange for them to get assaulted half-way . Later, after investigation, the lurking army was led to the place by the news uncovered by Sima Ray . ”
“Why should I believe your words?” Lu Wuyi said with her calm eyes, without any panic .
Qin Yunuan shook her head and smile, “You have been working with Sima Ray for such a long time, so you know him very much . You knew that Sima Ray would not miss such a thing that could achieve double effects simultaneously . If the assault was done and Changxi was killed, Sima Ray could continue to dispatch his army as the reinforcements . When East Qin capitulated and was divided up, he could reap the benefit leisurely . ”
Qin Yunuan passed the butterfly-shaped gold hair clasp in her hand to Lu Wuyi, “you give this to my maidservant for me, so I will drink the medical soup . This is not a threat but just an exchange . I know you can let nobody find you and give it to her secretly . ”
As he was hesitating, the hair clasp had been put on the hand of Lu Wuyi . Qin Yunuan lowered her eyebrows and smile . She drank the medical soup in the bowl entirely .
In the evening, Sima Ray went back . He came straight to Qin Yunuan without taking off his corselet . When he entered her room, he found that Qin Yunuan stood quietly facing the wall . This room was built in the crypt underground, but Sima Ray controlled well the ventilation and temperature of the room . People in this room would not feel the stuffiness and temperature imbalance at all .
“Useless,” Sima Ray strode down the steps, “The wall of this room is made of granite, which was very firm and soundproof . You couldn’t dig through the wall even if you did it for your whole life . ”
Qin Yunuan turned back calmly, “Third Prince, everything smooths this time?”
Sima Ray thought Qin Yunuan was mocking him . He raised his head and laughed, and then said proudly, “Smooth, super smooth . I kept a good lurker . Now my fifty-thousand army bypassed the eighty-thousand Imperial Guards outside the Royal City and arrived at the grand gate of the Royal Palace . There are only twenty thousand Imperial Guards in the Royal Palace now . Do you think they can fight against my army?”
“Really?” Qin Yunuan tilted her head slightly with her admiring eyes . She touched the cold wall of the room and knew that it was night now . Though she was prisoned in the stone room where the wall was made of granite all around, Sima Ray ignored one point . The moist granite was warm in the daytime and cold at night . Qin Yunuan had felt the temperature change of the wall . By touching the wall, she could guess the time outside . She had stayed at the stone room for roughly three days and did not know how Changxi was and if he was looking for her .
“I know you do not believe it . ” Sima Ray reached out his hand and pinched the jaw of Qin Yunuan . He seemed to be enjoying a private artwork, “I am very happy today . My soldiers tried their best to fight, so I decided to award them . This time, your three maidservants become useful . I have said that I will pick the most ferocious one first . I have heard that the one in purple is called Leng Shuang, right? She learned martial arts from many schools and is high-skilled now . What she always practices is Yunyu swordsmanship, which requires the practicer to be a virgin . Now I want her to be a slut of men . Qin Yunuan, I regard you as my honey, but you dislike me . Thus, I can only torment the people around you . I failed to make you love me, so I prison you like this to let you remember me for your whole life . ”
Qin Yunuan shook her head and sigh, “Sima Ray, do you know that you are such a rare psycho in this world?”
Sima Ray laughed and was about to say something . Suddenly, Du Sheng entered the room in a hurry . He said nervously, “Third Prince, something bad happened . A riot happened in the water dungeon . ”
Leng Shuang, Xi’er and Ting Xue were prisoned in the water dungeon . Sima Ray turned back to observe the reaction of Qin Yunuan . Having seen that Qin Yunuan was so calm, Sima Ray knew that he guessed right, “It’s you,” Sima Ray stepped forward to pinch the neck of Qin Yunuan, “I know it’s you! You are so competent . ”

Though the neck of Qin Yunuan was pinched by Sima Ray tightly, her eyes were still determined . She laughed with her hoarse voice, “Third Prince, what are you talking about? It is an airtight room without any window . I even can’t connect with anyone outside, so how can I save my three maidservants?”
Her provoking words caused a more intense emotion of Sima Ray .
He pushed Qin Yunuan against the wall heavily . He knew that the maidservant in purple who was called Leng Shuang was so high-skilled . If she succeeded in escaping, she would report the condition to the outside .
“Third Prince,” Qin Yunuan shouted, “Will you kill two of us?” She covered her belly simultaneously .
Du Sheng said aside, “Third Prince, all the guards in the water dungeon were killed just by one strike . ”
“It’s that bitch . ” Sima Ray glared at Qin Yunuan angrily and then walked out of the stone room .
After Sima Ray left, Lu Wuyi came in a short time . The guards at the door knew that Lu Wuyi came for treating Qin Yunuan, so they did not stop him . Lu Wuyi looked at Qi Yunuan, who was lying on the bed and pretended to be sick, but he did not expose her . He just ordered the medical boy to open the medicine chest as usual, “What the matter with you, Infanta Ping?”
Qin Yunuan straightened her body, and she had recovered from the craziness just now, “I feel bad in my chest . In a word, uncomfortable . ”

Lu Wuyi hinted at the medical boy who was about 12 to 13 years old, and then the boy quit immediately . Lu Wuyi was not about to treat her seriously and just put away his medicine chest . He just laughed, “What is the else matter with you, Infanta Ping? I hid your hair clasp in the food and sent it to the maidservant in purple according to your demand . Now the water dungeon is in a mess, and that’s your aim, right?”
“But, not enough . ” Qin Yunuan bewitched Lu Wuyi generally . He was the only channel for her to communicate with the outside, so she had to gain his full support . Although she knew that Lu Wuyi had not yielded to Sima Ray completely, now she could not ensure Lu Wuyi was willing to take risks for her .
“You have done enough . ” Lu Wuyi stood up angrily . He was a conscientious doctor, and many of those guards in the water dungeon were familiar with him . When he saw the bloody wounds on the neck of those guards, he seemed to feel their pain before they died .
As an apprentice who gained benefit from his benefactor, he wanted to revenge for his benefactor . But as a gentleman, he felt sorry to see the tragic scenes . Qin Yunuan hit exactly his weak point . She planned to force him into a hopeless situation . It would help if you made a person crazy before you convinced him .
“Enough? Really? But Sima Ray is still alive . Those soldiers planned to burst into the Royal Palace and kill the emperor . They were lewd and was about to rape my maidservants . My maidservants are ordinary girls, and those girls have their dads and relatives . Those soldiers have no right to insult my girls . They owe me, and all I do is to make them paid a little back . ”
“An eye for an eye will only make the whole world blind . ” Lu Wuyi covered his eyes painfully . The scene of those dying soldiers’ widening eyes seemed to emerge in his mind . He wanted to save them but failed . Qin Yunuan’s maidservant in purple was so shrewd . She broke the shackles’ lock by the hair clasp and used the hair clasp to poke the carotid artery of those guards . Under such an intense circumstance, she still carried the other two impotent girls and escape .
“Your maidservant has her relatives, but those soldiers also have their mothers and wives, who are waiting for them to come back . You ruined many families . ”
“Yes, each person has his family,” Qin Yunuan stepped closer slowly with intensifying eyes, “But how many families are there in the Royal Family? How about in Jizhou, and even in the whole Qi? Doctor Lu, if you helped me, only several perverts who had their family but still insulted other girls would be ruined . But if you did not help me, numerous ordinary people in the Royal City and even in the whole Qi would be destroyed . It is clear that which is more important . ”

Lu Wuyi said nothing and seemed to be pondering .
Qin Yunuan added, “You are a doctor, and you always pay much attention to save people in the world . But just by your insignificant strength, how come you save all the patients in this world? Though you can spend your whole life treating people, you can only save the local patients . How about those evil abnormal people? Doctor Lu, you can’t save them . Or, maybe some of your patients are perverted by nature . They will be living moths, but if they died, they would contribute to society . Doctor Lu, I have said much . You must be clear how to make your choice . ”
“Don’t force me . ” Lu Wuyi was very grievous in his heart . He crouched and covered his heart, which had been stimulated heavily and was constantly convulsive .
Qin Yunuan crouched too . She gave a silk bag to him, which was from the dying Old Madam of Prince Ning’s Mansion . Qin Yunuan always carried this silk bag . After Sima Ray started his army, she opened the silk bag secretly . She finally understood why the Old Madam said that it was a competitive weapon to destroy Sun Family after she saw the strange design with red-print pattern .
“What’s this?” Lu Wuyi felt surprised to look at the token with golden and red pattern . He suddenly understood and shouted surprisingly, “This is…”
