The Emperor Wants To Marry The Doctor Chapter 1437 - Pitiful
So many people had rushed over, but the first person Baili Chun saw and the one he asked about most concernedly was still Jiang Zhiyuan.
But toward such a situation, everyone was just dazed and exchanged a knowing gaze before they quickly accepted it. Anyway, it was like this in the past, so it wasn’t surprising at all.
There were so many people in the Sky-Cloud Empire, and there were many outstanding ones amongst the younger generation. However, they all couldn’t be compared to Jiang Zhiyuan.
Baili Chun had personally raised her by his side, so she was naturally different from the others.
The tears that Jiang Zhiyuan held back for a long time fell as though they were free.
Her happiness had hints of grievances, and she was indeed pitiful. If her face didn’t have the messy wounds and bloodstains, she would look even more pitiful.
But when Baili Chun saw this, he didn’t feel disdain at all, and his heart ached even more.
“Why? Yuan Yuan, why are you crying suddenly?” He took another step forward and lightly patted Jiang Zhiyuan’s head. “Look, isn’t Grandpa fine?”
In the entire Sky-Cloud Empire, only Jiang Zhiyuan could call him ‘grandpa.’
“Grandpa Chun…” Jiang Zhiyuan hurriedly wiped her tears, but she cried even more fiercely. “This is embarrassing…”
“What nonsense are you saying?” Baili Chun watched on, and his heart ached. He couldn’t help but knit his brows.
Previously, he didn’t notice it. But after approaching her, he realized that Jiang Zhiyuan’s condition was indeed terrible.
Her aura was chaotic, and she was filled with injuries. Her face was frail as well. Her body and face even had stunning bloodstains.
......
“W-what happened to you?!” Baili Chun’s expression became stern. “Who bullied you?!”
Jiang Zhiyuan pressed her lips against each other tightly and was hesitant in speaking. “I-it’s not…”
But to Baili Chun, this behavior essentially looked like she was bullied!
Baili Chun comforted her. “Don’t worry. With Grandpa around, I won’t let you be aggrieved at all!”
Then, he looked at 36 Respected Elder Ming and the rest. He suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, “What exactly is going on?”
36 Respected Elder Ming sneered in his heart.?
“It’s a long story.” 36 Respected Elder Ming’s expression was light. “Clan Leader, please head to Tongshen Palace. We can all talk about it openly.”
…
The moment Jiang Zhiyuan entered the hall, she directly kneeled on the ground as tears welled up in her eyes again.
“Yuan Yuan, what are you doing? Quickly get up!” Baili Chun—who had just sat down—saw this, and his heart ached terribly.?
However, Jiang Zhiyuan refused to get up. She just cried, “Grandpa Chun, I’m in the wrong! Please punish me!”
Upon seeing this, Baili Chun could only suppress his emotions and anxiously ask, “What exactly is going on?!”
Jiang Zhiyuan looked up.
In the surroundings, 36 Respected Elder Ming, Respected Elder Yu Jing, and the rest were all gathered here as they split up and sat on both sides.
An idea popped up in Jiang Zhiyuan’s mind, and her expression was depressed. “Grandpa Chun, I previously did something wrong and angered Mentor. H-he doesn’t want me anymore!”
Baili Chun was dazed.
36 Respected Elder Ming kindly explained, “She was expelled by Ling Xiao Academy, and they didn’t publicize the reason. However, this incident has spread far and wide, and the entire God Residence Realm knows about it.”
Jiang Zhiyuan clenched her fists tightly, and her nails dug into her palm.
She wanted to defend herself, but she couldn’t say anything. She could only swallow this anger.
Baili Chun tightly furrowed his brows and didn’t speak in a while.
He did not expect such a thing would happen. No matter how much he doted on Jiang Zhiyuan, he had to admit that this incident was a major black mark for her and the Sky-Cloud Empire.
After a while, he took a deep breath in and boomed, “Your injuries—”
“They were left behind when I went to the Flood-Desert Northern Region…” said Jiang Zhiyuan as she lowered her head. “They’re already much better now. Grandpa Chun, you don’t have to worry about me.”
Seeing her aggrieved yet considerate behavior, the bit of doubt Baili Chun had because she was expelled from Ling Xiao Academy disappeared.?
Thinking of this, Baili Chun looked around. “Where’s Rong Xiu? It’s been so long, yet why isn’t he here?”
Jiang Zhiyuan wiped her tears and fearfully said, “Brother Rong Xiu should still be in the academy… It’s normal for him not to come in such a short time. Don’t be angry at him.”
She paused and looked down. “But I don’t know why Sister Princess Consort isn’t here… Logically speaking, you came out of seclusion. so she should be here…”
“Princess Consort? What Princess Consort?” Baili Chun was confused.
Jiang Zhiyuan laughed bitterly. “Oh yes, you don’t know yet. Brother Rong Xiu—h-he has already chosen his princess consort. She’s staying at Jishen Palace now—”
“How dare he!?” Baili Chun was enraged as he slapped the desk and stood up!?
“Princess Consort… is indeed daring! Someone, go get that woman over!”
