Chương 4: Cold King's Dominating Love, Genius Medical Consort Chapter 4
Chapter 4: A palace gate as deep as the sea.
Mu Zi Ling also had a brother, Mu Zi Ye, who was five years older than her. After Li En fell ill, it was unknown why Mu Zi Ye was kicked out of the manor by Mu Zhen Guo, but he had not returned since.
Other than Mu Zhen Guo, no one else knew where Mu Zi Ye went, but Mu Zhen Guo never told anyone about this.
Although Mu Zi Ling grew up not lacking anything, but she did not receive much love from her family since she was young. Thus she became shy and did not like to talk much.
She often stared off into space by herself, her eyes empty with no light in them. She did not learn anything or practice anything. In the eyes of others, she was just a fool, a piece of waste that had no talents and no virtues.
The Old Madame was Mu Zhen Guo's mother, which made her Mu Zi Ling's Grandmother. Although in this household she deeply loved the sister and brother pair, not wanting them to be hurt in anyway.
Ever since Li En has fallen ill, she went to Qing An Temple to pray. She had travelled for many of years now, only coming back to see Mu Zi Ling once. This time, she came back because she had heard that Mu Zi Ling had been hurt and that she would be getting married.
The wound on Mu Zi Ling's head was from three days ago when Mu Yi Xue wanted to go outside with her. On the road, the horse suddenly started to sprint wildly.
Mu Zi Ling had fallen out of the carriage and hurt her head. She had been unconscious for three days and three nights now.
Although Mu Zi Ling had been injured, nothing had happened to Mu Yi Xue. What happened between them, only Mu Zi Ling knew. Mu Yi Xue just said that Mu Zi Ling had been injured because she was trying saving her.
The person Mu Zi Ling was marrying tomorrow was the emperor's third son, Qi King Long Xiao Yu.
Long Xiao Yu is 21 years old this year. The late emperor loved him very much and gave him the title Qi King before passing. He was the only prince to receive the title of king at such a young age.
Although Long Xiao Yu is young, he already had grasps over millions of soldier. He was the most powerful king in the Jia Luo Kingdom. He was a person above all others with many people admiring him. It was said that if the Qi King spoke in an angry voice, the entire continent would shake.
Although Long Xiao Yu's personality is cruel and cold, he is the dream man of many girls in the Jia Luo Kingdom.
He had never married and did not have a wife or concubine. Rumours said that the Qi King was obsessed with cleanliness that no woman other than his mother had ever touched him. He also did not interact with males either.
The current empress dowager was not the current emperor, Long Wen Yin's, birth mother. In the past she had thought that her own son, Long Wen Yu, would be able to become the emperor.
However it was not known why the late emperor took away Long Wen Yu's crown prince title because of a small mistake and gave it to his younger son, Long Wen Yin before passing away.
The empress dowager was very unwilling about this. When the late emperor died, she started to scheme and making progress with every step.
Because she was Long Wen Yin's nurture mother, after he ascended to emperor, she had also ascended to become empress dowager.
In front of everyone's eyes, empress dowager acted like a good mother taking care of the emperor as if he was her real son. However behind everyone's back she was scheming against the emperor with her son, the Yu King. The emperor was a good son and as long as the empress dowager didn't do anything too crazy, he would ignore it all, pretending nothing was wrong.
Because Long Xiao Yu was given the title of king at a young age, his position in power continued to rise without a hint of falling, which made him turn into a major obstacle for the empress dowager. So she began to target Long Xiao Yu.
Everyone knew that empress dowager was trying to go against the Qi King.
Three years ago, the loyal Mu Zhen Guo asked to retire and returned all his military power, so that he could take care of his ill wife.
The emperor didn't want to let him go, but Mu Zhen Guo had spent half of his life on the battlefield serving his country, so he could not force him to stay. Out of respect of how much he loved his country, he gave him the title Marquis Zhong Yi. He would receive a salary from the court, but he would not need to attend court or care about the country's matters.
Now the powerless Marquis Zong was just an empty shell with the idiot Mu Zi Ling.
This was why empress dowager ordered the Qi King, Long Xiao Yu to marry Mu Zi Ling. If she couldn't cut off his wings, he still could not be allowed to grow stronger.
Once one entered the palace doors, it would be as deep as the sea. There would be infighting and battles for power. They would not have a day of peace from now on.
Since she couldn't escape, she could only face the problems. It was a good thing that this Qi King did not marry any concubines, or else she would have to face a group of angry women sending glares at her. She would go insane if that is what she had to deal with! Mu Zi Ling silently contemplated to herself.
However, she still had to look for the frozen jade bed. As long as there was a sliver of possibility for her to go back to her world, she would not let it go.
She transmigrated to the Mu manor, but she did not know if the cold jad bed was also in the Mu manor. Looking at the situation, she could only sneak out tonight to look for the bed. After tomorrow she would be married and it would be hard to look for the bed in the future.
Mu Zi Ling took off the gauze wrapped around her head and then took out a skin recovering paste from the Stellar System to apply to her wound.
Not long passed before the wound started to heal, slowly forming a scab, before falling off and her skin returned to its original state. Then she wrapped the gauze back around her head because she could allow anyone to discover that her wound had healed so fast..

Xue courtyard.
After Mu Yi Xue quickly ran home, she took multiple baths and only then was she able to wash the Scar Removal Elixir from her body. What she didn't know was that there was a surprise waiting for her tomorrow morning.
All the maids were quickly moving around and they were curious about what had happened to the second miss. Why did she take so many baths after coming back from eldest miss' place? Did she touch something dirty on the way?
Of course they only thought this to themselves and none of them had the courage to ask what has happened. They were very clear on what kind of temper Mu Yi Xue had.
"Yi Xue, what happened?" Bai Su Su came in with a serious look on her face.
She had heard that Mu Yi Xue had ran out of Mu Zi Ling's courtyard like a crazy person. She wanted to come see what had happened and when she saw Mu Yi Xue's embarrassing figure, her tone turned cold.
"Wuu~ mother, it is all because of that idiot, Mu Zi Ling! I was kind hearted enough to give her some medicine, but not only did she not accept my kindness, she even poured it all over me!" When Mu Yi Xue saw Bai Su Su come in, she started to vent her grievances. She was loudly weeping, looking very pitiful.
"What medicine would made you take so many baths? Don't lie to me now." Bai Su Su said in a serious voice.
"Its….Scar Removal Elixir mixed… with Skin Rotting Powder." Mu Yi Xue stuttered this as tears flowed down her face.

Chapter 5: Marrying, can't bare to let you go
Pa! "How many times have I told you to not bother Mu Zi Ling, yet you still go!" Bai Su Su angrily shouted out after slapping Mu Yi Xu across the face.
"Mother, why are you always on her side! That idiot is going to marry Qi King tomorrow, but I don't want that to happen! I only wanted Mu Zi Ling's face to be disfigured, so I could marry the Qi King!" Mu Yi Xue yelled holding her slapped face.
Ever since she caught a glimpse of Qi King, she was always thinking of him, being unable to forget about him. She had sworn that in this lifetime, she would only marry his highness, the Qi King and no one else.
Bai Su Su helplessly stroked her forehead and then coldly warned, "In the future don't cause anymore trouble and think about these kinds of delusions. Do you understand?"
"Why mother? I am your daughter, but why don't you ever help me? Over these years all of the Old Madame's good things have been given to Mu Zi Ling, even when she came back from the temple she went to look for her. The Old Madame has never paid any attention and now Mu Zi Ling is even going to marry the Qi King!"
Mu Yi Xue's heart turned cold. Why was her mother always on Mu Zi Ling's side whenever she caused trouble.
Bai Su Su revealed a serious expression and said, "There is no reason. The next time you do something like this, I will have someone take you away." When she finished talking, she just left without looking back.
"AH!" As soon as Bai Su Su left, Mu Yi Xue went crazy once again. She began to throw and break everything in her room.
Mu Yi Xue clenched her teeth and said, "Mu Zi Ling, it's all your fault. Why do you get to marry Qi King?! You are clearly just a waste, but you get all the good things! Even if everyone is on your side, I, Mu Yi Xue, will not give up so easily!"
-
The silver light of the moon shone down on the land with the soft sounds of bugs and frogs ringing outside. The night's aroma gradually spread throughout the night sky filled with stars, forming a net that covered everything below it.
Qi King's Manor, You Shui Pavilion.
"Third Brother, the Empress Dowager has ordered me to bring the dowry to Marquis Shi's Manor today, but why is that you're willing to marry Mu Manor's Eldest Miss this time? It is said that although she looks ok, she is an untalented idiot. Clearly the Empress Dowager wants you to marry that dumb woman to turn you into a joke!"
Long Xiao Ze had a surprised expression on his face as he looked at and spoke to the man lying on the soft mat.
This man was using one hand to support his head. He exuded a handsome aura as he crossed his leg over the other, casually falling asleep.
This was a face hated by men and gods. He had a pair of slender legs, a tall and straight body, and a handsome chin which outlined his face making it look noble and cold. It was like a dazzling light shining in the darkness.
His deep and dark eyes slowly opened with a sharp sword like gaze that was like a cold pool of water, making it hard for anyone to breath. He was like a divine being in the night, that awed anyone who caught a glimpse of this sight.
"Since that old lady from the palace wants to play, then this King will gladly play with her." Long Xiao Yu's thin lips curled. His voice was as cold as ice, low and magnetic.
After he said this, his body flashed and he disappeared into the darkness of the night.
Long Xiao Ze quickly chased after him and yelled, "Third brother, where are you going?! Tomorrow is your wedding, are you not going to pick up the bride?!"
"You can go get her!" Long Xiao Yu's voice came from a far place.
Long Xiao Ze couldn't help being stunned. What? You want me to get her?
However, normally when Empress Dowager wanted his Third Brother to do something, his Third Brother always managed to find a perfect reason to avoid doing it.
Moreover, he never allowed the Empress Dowager to catch a single flaw, so she can only endure it all. Now, his Third Brother actually wanted to play with the Empress Dowager.
Long Xiao Ze's pretty face revealed an evil grin at this moment. Looks like the future would be quite exciting. Tomorrow he would have play with his future Third Sister in law first.
Mu Zi Ling finished her dinner early and then she snuck around the manor looking for the frozen jade bed, but she could not even find its shadow which discouraged her.
Mu Zi Ling was about to go back and sleep when she suddenly gave a loud sneeze. Damn, which bastard was scheming against her now?
-
The next day.
Mu Zi Ling was woken up by Xie's anxious cries, "Young Miss, Young Miss, quickly wake up. If you don't wake up now, you won't make it on time."
Mu Zi Ling stumbled out of bed and rubbed her blurry eyes. Then she said in a sleepy voice, "What time is it?"
"Young Miss, it is currently the Yi Hour" Xie replied. Today was the day her Young Miss was getting married, they could not waste any time at all.
[TL note: Yi Hour is 3-5 am]
"It's that early?! Can't you see that the sky is still dark? Let me sleep a little longer." Mu Zi Ling raised her finger and pointed at the sky outside. After she finished speaking, her arm slowly fell back down.
Last night she slept late after searching for the bed and it is only 4 in the morning right now. What was the point of waking up so early anyway?
"That won't do. Today is Young Miss' marriage and you won't be ready in time if you don't get up and dress yourself now." Xie said as she pulled up Mu Zi Ling who was still lying on the bed.
At this point, Mu Zi Ling finally woke up. That's right, today is her marriage, but wasn't this is still too early? Did she have to be so punctual?
Suddenly the old maids and young maids outside the doors came in to help Mu Zi Ling with her makeup and to dress her up.
Mu Zi Ling could only obediently sit at her dressing table while the old and young maids dressed her up.
It took a total of 4 hours for them to finish.
A bright red wedding dress revealed her beautiful face. Her clear eyes flashed with a natural glow and her gestures were filled a tempting charm.
Her snow white skin made her little tender red lips seem even smaller in contrast, making her look cute and adding even more charm to her snow white face.
At this moment, Mu Zi Ling looked at the bronze mirror with a casual smile that revealed a pair of shallow dimples.
This kind of unmoving calmness, a calmness that could withstand anything, was the demeanor that a queen possessed.
Off to the side, the old and young maids all looked amazed. She was so beautiful, just like a goddess descending onto the mortal realm. They never thought that the Eldest Miss would look so beautiful and breathtaking after being dressed up.
"Our Ling'er will be marrying today, but your grandmother is not willing to let you go." The Old Madame walked in with the help of a maid. Her face was full of unwillingness and worry.
It is still unknown whether this marriage to the Qi King Palace would be a blessing or a curse. The Empress dowager and the Qi King had always been enemies.
This time Ling'er might be thrown into deep murky waters and the Old Madame herself was already too old to be of much help. In the future, Ling'er would have to rely on herself.
Mu Zi Ling could tell that the Old Madame was worried and unwilling, making her heart hurt a little. She thought of past life in the orphanage, other than the few professors at the medical school, she has never been cared for by anyone.
Mu Zi Ling did not wish for the Old Madame to worry too much, so she smiled and said, "Grandmother, there's no need to worry. There's a saying that one should become a chicken when marrying a chicken and to become a dog when marrying a dog. If there is no one to lift the sky for me, then I will lift the sky myself."
[TL Note: One should become a chicken when marrying a chicken and to become a dog when marrying a dog = A woman should follow her husband no matter the circumstances.]
"Silly child, the Qi King is not some chicken or dog. When you marry into his palace, you shouldn't say anymore nonsense like this." The Old Madam reminded her.
She was feeling happier about Ling'er's changes after she had awakened from her accident.
