Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress-Chapter 2042 - 2050: Jealousy and Rivalry (Part 3)
Therefore, she lowered her head, ignoring the unruly and domineering man, and went on her own to take out a delicate white jade box the size of a tribute jujube from a pearl-studded pomegranate-shaped purse at her waist. Opening the box, she found a maroon pill inside, and as soon as the box was opened, the room was filled with a fragrant aroma.
She pried open Wanyan Chao’s mouth, placed the pill into it, gently laid him on the ground, got up and went to the table to pour a cup of tea, and slowly brought it to his lips with a spoon, feeding him to drink it down.
This elixir was refined by Yu’er and was called the Resurrection Pill, specially used to treat fainting spells.
Since childhood, Yu’er loved studying medicine and often mingled with the Old Turtle. After years of working together, he could understand the mind of the Old Turtle. Under the guidance of the Old Turtle, he not only became a brilliant Divine Doctor but also a master pill refiner. Now, most of the elixirs inside the Palace were made by him, and their effectiveness was ten times, even a hundred times stronger than those made by the Imperial Medical Institute, very effective.
Bright Pearls tucked the elixir into Wanyan Chao’s mouth and carefully wiped the moisture from the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief.
Seeing the woman he thought about day and night treating another man so tenderly without regard for him, Ba Tulu felt extremely displeased and said sourly, "What’s so good about him? Whatever he can give you, I can give you too. Why don’t you try giving me a chance? You might find I am more suitable for you than he is!"
Bright Pearls, unable to hear anyone speak ill of her fiancé, immediately mocked, "Just now when I fainted, he worried about me and forgot his own safety to save me. But what about you? You took the opportunity to attack someone. How despicable and shameless! You have the audacity to say you are better than him? I have seen shameless people, but never someone as shameless as you!"
Upon hearing this, Ba Tulu jumped up: "When did I ever attack this boy? Is he worthy of my ambush? All’s fair in war. It’s his own fault for being useless. If it were on the battlefield, would an opponent wait for him to snap back to reality before fighting him?"
Ba Tulu felt extremely wronged. Just now, when dealing with Wanyan Chao, he had his back to Bright Pearls and did not see her faint. However, being proud, he disdained to defend himself, so he sarcastically said Wanyan Chao was useless.
Bright Pearls said coldly, "This is the difference between you two. This is not the battlefield, so you lost. Do not appear in front of me again. Even without him, I would never choose you."
Ba Tulu was thus sentenced to death by Bright Pearls. Displeased, he said, "This is not fair. On the prairie, the best girls should belong to the fiercest warriors."
"This is not the prairie, this is the Great Jin Nation, and I am not a citizen of your Liaodan. I am the legitimate princess of the Great Jin Nation."
Bright Pearls spoke coldly, her eyes icy. Although she was just a daughter of the boudoir, her identity as a princess made her aura much stronger than other maidens. Her words were full of vigor, making Ba Tulu unable to belittle her.
Ba Tulu, choked by her words, was extremely annoyed and sat by the table, just in time to see a cup of amber-colored wine by his hand, so he picked it up, tilted his head back, and poured it into his mouth.
Just as he drank it, he suddenly thought that this cup might have been drunk by Wanyan Chao and promptly spat it out, huffing, "The wine of the prairie is still better; the wine of the Central Plains is as bland as horse urine."
Bright Pearls raised her eyes and gave him a cold look, saying, "No one invited you to drink it; you came uninvited. If you don’t like it, fine. You are not welcome here, so hurry back to your prairie."
