And Xichen, the reason why he asked to marry Zini was not because of her appearance, but because of her blood.

Because, Xichen's wife Qing Dai was poisoned in her body eight years ago, although she was cured by the master, but the poison could not be eradicated, it could only be temporarily suppressed, and the residual toxin was hidden in the body, gradually eroding the health of Qing Dai, life passed day by day, and the master asserted that the time belonging to Qing Dai was only ten years at most.

Over the years, Xichen has been fighting in the north and south, and has been searching for famous doctors everywhere, looking for miracle medicines, but to no avail, Qingdai's life is withering day by day, and Xichen's heart is also dripping blood.

Qingdai and Xichen's childhood sweethearts, the two have no guesses, the two got married early, Qin Se and Ming, you and me. But in the spring of eight years ago, when she was going out, Qingdai was bitten by an unknown poison, which did not kill her immediately, but tortured her to the bitterness.

In the past, Qingdai's face was like Fu powder, her eyes were like peach blossoms, her lips were like Danxia, her facial features were delicate, and she was generous and elegant. Xichen likes to see her wearing an emerald green smoke veil Bixia Luo, with a three-foot light green pleated Luo skirt, three thousand green silk is lightly tied with a pink green hairband, the beautiful neck and delicate collarbone are clearly visible, and the skin like spring flowers looks even more delicate and soft. A pearl and jade butterfly hairpin on the head, every step of the way, it will sway, the whole person is like a dancing butterfly, and like a fairy with a clear and graceful spirit. In Xichen's heart, his Qingdai is the most beautiful person in the world and the only treasure in the world.

But after being poisoned, Qing Dai's face lost its ruddyness, her skin lost her luster, and her eyes lost their agility. With a haggard face and a withered appearance, she no longer dared or wanted to wear the emerald green smoke veil Bixialuo, and by the time she was bedridden at the very end, she was already dove-shaped and looked like a zombie. Xichen ordered someone to throw away all the bronze mirrors in the house, afraid that Qing Dai would be sad to see her current appearance. But as a husband, seeing his beloved wife become like this, he couldn't do anything about it, how miserable Xichen's heart was.

It is also Qingdai's life that should not be extinguished, after the destruction of the Dongliu Kingdom, Xichen saved an old man who fainted on the street one winter on the street. This person used to be a small official in the palace of Dongliu Kingdom, named Luo Chuan. Although Luo Chuan is now down, he was familiar with the scriptures in his early years, knew astronomy and geography, and could be regarded as a literati.

Xichen didn't like to make friends with those courtiers who tended to be inflammatory, but he hit this Luo Chuan at first sight. In his spare time, Xichen often brings some wine, food, oil and rice to see Luo Chuan, and while playing against Luo Chuan, he listens to Luo Chuan talk about some strange things in the world from the book, but he is also leisurely.

One day, the two inadvertently talked about the saintess of Dongliu Kingdom, perhaps because the country was broken and the people were dead, Luo Chuan didn't expect that the last saint of his country was still alive in this world, so he told Xichen the secret of this saint.

"Can the blood of the Holy Maiden really detoxify? Can you cure all diseases? Xi Chen was skeptical after hearing this.

"This old man is not sure, after all, it is the top secret of Dongliu Kingdom, and I just saw the record in the secret book of the classic library." Luo Chuan took a sip of wine, as if recalling something, "However, one year, our prince had a strange illness and his life was dying, and the imperial doctor in the palace was helpless. The emperor ordered someone to take the holy woman to the palace as soon as possible to treat the prince. I was on duty in the palace at that time, and when the holy maiden came and went, I happened to meet her at the palace gate. ”
