Genius Doctor: Black Belly Miss Volume 1

by North Night (夜北)

From the memory of the previous Wu Xie, she could only find a little bit of rumours on him. Mo Qian Yuan was born six months earlier than Mo Xuan Fei, as the Emperor’s eldest son, once he was born, he was given the title of Crown Prince. When he was young, the common folk had all said that he was talented, modest, mindful and polite, many sang praises of him. At that time, the Emperor too had doted on him and everyone praised him.

  All these of course was when the Queen was still around and her family was a large faction that had lots of power. She was still in charge of the harem then.

  With the passing of the Queen, the whole country was mourning and Mo Qian Yuan fell terribly ill for three whole months and after his recovery, his temperament had undergone major changes.

  “Jun Qing also came today? Are you feeling better?” The Emperor smiled gently at Jun Qing.

  Jun Qing sat weakly on the wheelchair and as he tried to speak, his breathing became chaotic and he started gasping for his breath.

  The Emperor’s face changed immediately and quickly said: “Quick! Imperial Doctors quickly go have a look!”

  Upon the Emperor’s order, the two Imperial Doctors on standby quickly rushed over to Jun Qing’s side and attended to him.

  During the whole process, Jun Qing’s face was pale and his breathing was very faint.

  Jun Wu Xie sat there quietly sipping her tea looking at the two doctors taking the pulse of her uncle.

  This uncle of hers was not bad, he added quite a clever touch. The purpose of the Emperor’s invitation to Jun Qing was clear as day. When the Emperor started probing, Jun Qing immediately gave him this opportunity.

  Jun Qing’s situation was no different from the previous time they had taken his pulse. His pulse was very weak and his breath was faint… his life seemed to be so fragile and could be extinguished any moment.

  After both the Imperial Doctors thoroughly checked, they whispered amongst themselves and turned towards the Emperor with a serious tone, said: “Please pardon us, but we are unable to resolve this for his highness. We can only advise his highness to rest as much as he can and do not cause any unnecessary strain on the heart.” They were very subtle in their diagnosis.

  The two Imperial Doctors were helpless and with their diagnosis, Jun Qing was already deemed dead.

  The mood was heavy as all the ministers showed a face of regret and remorse, a total different emotion from what they were feeling inside.

  “Go prepare some Ginseng.” The Emperor ordered as he gave out a long sigh, giving the impression of a helpless enlightened ruler, he turned to Jun Xian and said: “If there is anything you need, just feel free to speak out. Since today Bai Yun Xian is also present, how about we let her have a look as well?”

  Jun Xian got up respectfully: “This humble one is touched and very thankful for Your Majesty’s grace!”

  The Emperor nodded and Bai Yun Xian who was seated beside Mo Xuan Fei got up from her seat and walked over to take Jun Qing’s pulse.

  Jun Wu Xie rested her chin on her hand and looked at the approaching Bai Yun Xian, her eyes flashed an icy cold glint.

  “Meow.”

  [This old fool is really disgusting, if he had truly wanted to save your uncle, he should have asked Bai Yun Xian to have a look earlier. What use is there to ask her come now?] The little black cat sneered as it puffed it’s chest up unhappily. It naturally sided Jun Wu Xie’s family and was lamenting on the unfair treatment they received.

  “She’s not here to see if she’s able to save him but to check whether is he really dying.” Jun Wu Xie calmly assessed. The Emperor thought that he was so smart but to her he was hopelessly stupid.

  Want to use Bai Yun Xian to check on Jun Qing? He really regarded that woman too highly.

  Qing Yun Clan’s disciple? So what? In her eyes they were nothing but a joke.

  Bai Yun Xian carried an air of aloofness as she covered his wrist with a thin cloth and tapped his wrist gently and took his pulse.

  Jun Xian was nervous as he looked at Bai Yun Xian.

  She was after all not an ordinary doctor but from the famed Qing Yun Clan. He was not sure of how good her abilities were as he had not witnessed them for himself but he knew they had to take this gamble.

  His heart was filled with anxiety but when he looked over at Jun Wu Xie, he was surprised that his own granddaughter was preoccupied with the teacup in her hands and too lazy to even look at Bai Yun Xian.

  With Jun Wu Xie’s calmness, Jun Xian had a little peace of mind.

  Shortly after, Bai Yun Xian straightened herself with a cold and aloof expression: “The Imperial Doctors’ diagnosis was not wrong, my Master had tried his best to neutralise his poison but if my Master can’t even clear his poison, I’m afraid no one can. It is already a miracle that my Master managed to suppress the poison for so many years.” After singing praises of her master, she proudly glanced around the hall.

  Chapter 64: “The Banquet (6)”

  Even if Qing Yun Clan’s Sovereign could not cure, who else is in this world could?

  Bai Yun Xian’s diagnosis gave the Emperor a huge relief, he felt as though a huge boulder was lifted off his shoulders.

  Jun Xian whispered his thanks with a pale face as he silently sank bank into his seat. Those with sharp eyes noted his hands holding onto his wine cup was trembling.

  Looks like Jun Qing’s condition was really hopeless, look, even Jun Xian’s hands were shaking! Indeed his hands were trembling but it never crossed their minds that it was not due to grief but due to him holding back his own laughter.

  If it wasn’t for the situation at hand, he could not wait to shout out to the whole world and tell them that his son’s poison had already been completely cleared by his brilliant granddaughter! Not only that, his son would soon be able to walk again! Qing Yun Clan…was simply.. to simply put it they were simply ****!!!

  Just his granddaughter alone could clear the poison that the Qing Yun Clan’s Sovereign deemed hopeless, under the guidance of an esteemed master. This Bai Yun Xian actually had the audacity to say that her Master’s solution was the best and if he could not cure it, no one else could! Hmph!

  Previously he had admired the Qing Yun Clan fervently, however after seeing with his own eyes how his granddaughter easily did what their Sovereign could not accomplish, he had lost all his respect for the clan and scoffed at them instead.

  Other than his family’s Wu Xie, who else dares to say that they are best in the world?!

  Jun Xian looked around at the reaction of the crowd and swore in his heart that after the comeback of his Lin Palace, he would make these guys know where they stand! He couldn’t wait to see their expressions after they knew the truth!

  For now, he played a distraught man.

  Jun Wu Xie simply admired her own grandfather and uncle for their acting skills and gave them full points.

  After completing the task, Bai Yun Xian went back to the Second Prince’s side. He immediately looked at her gently and said: “Yun Xian, you’ve worked hard.”

  Bai Yun Xian smiled sweetly back.

  “You really are a romantic at heart dear brother, looks like your feelings run deep.” The silent Crown Prince suddenly spoke up, with a pair of sharp eyes staring intently at Mo Xuan Fei.

  “Big Brother, you really know how to joke.” He did not know why his brother suddenly praised them.

  “Well, I don’t know if this romantic you is a bit too irresponsible, favouring the new over the old is not the style of our Royal Family. Now here you are acting all lovey dovey with Miss Bai, have you ever thought about the feelings of others?” Mo Qian Yuan sneered.

  Mo Xuan Fei’s face stiffened.

  Even a fool knew what Mo Qing Yuan meant as all eyes subconsciously shifted to Jun Wu Xie who had been neglected the whole night.

  The infamous lady in question was surprisingly really quiet tonight, if not for the Crown Pri
nce mentioning her, everyone had almost forgotten about her presence.

  Mo Xuan Fei and Jun Wu Xie were betrothed, however after the appearance of Bai Yun Xian, Mo Xuan Fei no longer met up much with Jun Wu Xie and not long ago, the Emperor even broke their engagement.

  When their engagement was broken off, the incident sparked a major uproar that spread beyond the State of Qi. Everyone had been anticipating the trouble she would bring with her, however she had instead remained low-key and disappeared for such a long time. In fact, this was the first time people had seen her after that incident.

  Although she was more beautiful now, somehow they felt that there was something different about her from the past.

  In the whole country, it could be said that she was one of the finest beauties. However with her brash,fiery,rude and arrogant personality it conflicted with her outward appearance. Today she was sitting quietly in the corner made her seem like totally different person!

  Misty ramblings: In the beginning it was emphasized that she was not a beauty however it changed after awhile. My guess is that… after she went through the whole lotus seed conditioning, her complexion had improved and she looked fresher too. In many other novels usually such changes will let them have virtually poreless skin almost akin to a baby’s skin. So think models without the photoshop and without makeup.

  Also her demeanor is now different so the charisma she exudes now makes her more poise. And also she’s still growing, there’s this chinese saying “女人十八变” which if you do a search these are the literal :a girl changes eighteen times between childhood and womanhood (idiom) and not so literal: girl changes fast in physical appearance from childhood to adulthood.

  Also, it had been emphasized over and over again how horrid the previous Wu Xie’s character was so perhaps her personality really was so bad that her beauty did not matter. No one wanted to have anything to do with her…

  Chapter 65: “The Crown Prince (1)”

  Jun Wu Xie sat there quietly with a pair of downcast eyes, without putting anyone in her sight as she sat there detached as if the commotion had nothing to do with her. She was austere and alone in a world of her own.

  Elegant, pure and transcendent beauty were words that immediately appeared in their minds.

  Those words which were initially tailored for Bai Yun Xian now seemed to fit her better.

  Her reserved demeanor made her unapproachable but made one’s heart long to keep looking at her.

  Although they hate to admit it but truthfully, the quiet Jun Wu Xie no matter in terms of demeanour or charm had risen significantly.

  She had been very low-key, too low in fact that people had almost forgotten all about her but after placing her in sight and noticing her subtle changes, they could not help but be attracted to her.

  Sneaking a peek at Jun Wu Xie and shifting their gazes to Bai Yun Xian…

  Bai Yun Xian didn’t seem to be as elegant as they had previously thought.

  It looks like the real ice cold elegant goddess position would be given to Jun Wu Xie. It was time for Bai Yun Xian to step down.

  “Qian Yuan, you are drunk.” The Emperor frowned, he did not understand why the usually silent Crown Prince would suddenly speak up for Jun Wu Xie. He clearly remembered that this was only the second time they had met and previously when they met, Mo Qian Yuan did not have a good impression of her.

  “Ah, yes, I’m drunk. Your son had drank too many cups of wine, I’ve let Imperial Father seen something funny. Please allow me to go back and rest first.” Mo Qian Yuan straightened himself up as he let out a faint smile.

  “Go.” The Emperor bellowed.

  Mo Qian Yuan no longer hesitated and immediately got up, raising his hand and waving away the servants who wanted to assist him. He narrowed his eyes as he hissed: “I still can walk myself, no one is to allowed to touch me!”

  The manner which the Crown Prince left had instilled discontent in many.

  Jun Wu Xie looked at his departing back as she pondered for a while amidst the toasts that were going on around, she spoke to her Uncle in a soft tone: “Uncle, I want to go out for some fresh air.”

  Jun Qing was surprised for a moment, thinking back on how this niece of his was devoted to Mo Xuan Fei and looking at how lovey dovey he was with Bai Yun Xian now, she must be feeling miserable. He sighed loudly and said: “Go have a walk around but do not leave this Palace Wing. Don’t stay out too long.”

  “Alright.”

  “Wu Xie.”

  “Yes?”

  “Don’t be so sad over Mo Xuan Fei. He does not deserve you.”

  “…………..” Jun Wu Xie’s steps froze midway.

  How did he come to that conclusion? Which eye did he use and see that she was upset over that scum Mo Xuan Fei?

  The moonlight streamed into the garden and brightly illuminated the pavilion which Mo Qian Yuan was as he chugged down wine straight from the jug. He was sitting on the stone chair as he smiled bitterly by himself.

  “If you want to die early, go ahead and drink more!” A tender voice with a coldness broke the tranquility of the still night.

  Mo Qian Yuan was very surprised. Under the moonlight, a beautiful young maiden dressed in a lovely yellow silk brocade holding a little black cat in her arms stood there. Surrounded by flowers and with the moonlight gently shining on her body, her delicate features against the surreal background, she looked like a fairy that had descended into the mortal realm.

  “Jun Wu Xie?” Mo Qian Yuan’s lips curved upwards as he looked at her in a drunken stupor.

  “I was still wondering who had the audacity to curse me, the Crown Prince to die early?”

  Jun Wu Xie walked towards the pavilion, as the stench of alcohol assaulted her. She stopped just before entering the pavilion.

  “Even if I don’t mention it, you will also die…moreover…how long more will you be able to stay as the Crown Prince?” She replied icily.

  Volume 1

  Chapter 66: “The Crown Prince (2)”

  Mo Qian Yuan’s expression suddenly changed. His blurred eyes immediately turned sharp as the silence swept through and the air became stifled. He seemed to have transformed into a panther that was waiting in the dark ready to pounce onto it’s prey.

  “What are you talking about?” His eyes had a dangerous glint in them.

  Jun Wu Xie casually stroked the fur of the little black cat, without even looking up, she said icily: “Some people do not want you to continue being the Crown Prince and are hoping for you to have an early demise. If you also think the same way and want to find an earlier release, just hit your head here against the stone table, no need to waste everybody’s time.”

  Mo Qian Yuan’s mouth twitched slightly. He had always thought that she was a little outrageous but he just realised he had thoroughly underestimated her after experiencing her poison tongue first hand.

  This little girl, couldn’t she say things properly? Did she need to say it in such a manner?

  “This kind of words can’t be said so carelessly, I’ll just take it as I didn’t hear this.” He rubbed his wrinkled brows.

  “Careless words? Well, since I’m already saying it I might as well continue. If you want to avenge your Mother and your maternal family, you have to live and keep your position as Crown Prince.” She slowly looked up with eyes that were filled with intensity looked at him straight which startled him.

  “What do you know?” His eyes had a trace of panic in them.

  “I know that you are a coward and a waste.” Jun Wu Xie raised her eyebrows.

  “You!” Mo Qian Yuan was infuriated, he should not have spoken up for her just now!

  “If you are not willing, then find all means and ways to survive. If not just raise your hands and surrender.” She retorted.

  Mo Qian Yuan sucked in a deep breath, this little girl really knew where to stab where it hurts the most! As he had been drinking wine prior to this, he was light headed when h
e felt a sudden rush to his head. He stood up and flung his jug of wine into the floor.

  It shattered into pieces as the strong smell of wine permeated the surroundings.

  “You think I want this? Huh? Do you think I asked for it? So what about the title of Crown Prince? Hah! I don’t even want anything! My life, my position, they all don’t belong to me! Even my own father wants me dead! Everyone thinks that I’m an incompetent Prince! Who else in this world can save me? So what if I’m not willing? What can I do about it?”

  He yelled with bloodshot eyes as he unravelled everything that had been plaguing him deep within. All the years of bottled up emotions came forth like a gushing spring.

  “You’re right! I’m going to die soon! Going to die! What else can I do about it? I’m almost as good as dead! Tell me, what can I do?!!!”

  Jun Wu Xie looked at him coldly as he flung about and wallowed.

  “What if you do not need to die?”

  “What?” He looked at her wide eyed. It was as though a sudden jolt of lightning had struck him.

  “Well, to be more precise, not only do you not die, in fact you won’t die in the next few years or decades.” She corrected her own words.

  “You…you…what do you mean?” He swallowed his saliva as he asked nervously, not daring to hear what he had wished for most.

  Jun Wu Xie did not bother answering him as she impatiently said: “You’ve been poisoned right?”

  “How did you know?” What was this little girl?! He was very surprised.

  She furrowed her brows. She really wasn’t very good at explanations, might as well spend the time proving it instead.

  “Little Black, hold him down.” She said as she suddenly threw the little black cat in her arms out.

  Under the bright moonlight, the little black cat which was the size of her hand suddenly transformed – It’s body grew bigger in an instant and it became huge and strong panther as it pounced onto Mo Qian Yuan.
