Chapter 40: The Beginning of Deception

Previous Chapter

Si Yan looked at Ye Qianling who was lying on the bed and couldn't open his eyes, and lowered his head silently to hide his cold eyes, he grew up in the palace since he was a child, and the pursuit of power caused him to force himself not to be compassionate.

Ye Qianling didn't hear a voice for a long time, and it took a long time before she cautiously whispered: "Master Chi, are you okay?" ”

"It's fine." When Si Yan heard this, he raised his head, and his voice changed back to its original appearance: "You have a good rest, I'll go get you medicine." ”

When Ye Qianling heard this, what she wanted to say was blocked by this sentence, and the boy next to her left the house without waiting for her to say anything.

When Ye Qianling saw people leaving, his smile disappeared instantly, pretending to be happy was too painful, and the numbing energy on his body slowly passed, and his chest began to hurt again.

"Get up and drink your medicine." After the sound of a door being pushed sounded, Si Yan came in with a medicine bowl, looking at Ye Qianling, who had already opened his eyes, shrinking into a ball, and only raised a pair of big eyes after hearing the sound, and opened magnetically.

Ye Qianling's trembling hand wanted to lift it up to take the medicine bowl, but it was too painful to hold anything, and she couldn't hold it after trying several times.

Si Yan sighed silently in his heart, went to the bedside, looked at the girl who was embarrassed because she couldn't hold the bowl, and paused for a while to see that she really couldn't hold it, "Don't take it, I'll feed you." ”

Ye Qianling was startled when she heard this, and suddenly raised her head and looked at Si Yan incredulously, because she didn't want to trouble others and wanted to refuse, but she knew that she really couldn't pick it up, and after thinking about it for a long time, her face covered with cold sweat slowly relaxed, and there was an obvious flush on her pale face, "I'm sorry for you, Master Chi." ”

Seeing Ye Qianling's reaction, Si Yan probably knew something in his heart, picked up the spoon and handed it to the girl's mouth.

Ye Qianling looked at Si Yan's movements, so gentle, and was dissatisfied with his sudden cowardice and greed, but it was undeniable that his eyes when he looked at Si Yan had changed significantly. Indeed, Ye Qianling was touched by this kind of care.

This time is too painful, and I always fight it alone, even if the wounds on my body are shocking, no one cares even a little. But when I meet a boy who has only known him for a few days, no matter what the purpose is so concerned about me, there is a kind of warmth that still comes to my heart.

Tears flowed down the cheeks, hitting the spoon one by one, and swallowing the liquid into the stomach.

The environment suddenly became silent, and Ye Qianling didn't dare to look up at Si Yan when she was being fed medicine, and her tearful eyes flowed uncontrollably because of gravity.

"What are you doing, we've been waiting for you for a long time and haven't come, why haven't you finished yet?" Uninhibited voices rang out, and both of them returned to their normal ways of being, pretending that nothing had happened.

Chu Zimu and a few people came in directly without knocking on the door, startling the two people in the house, although they hurriedly covered it up, but they didn't have time, and several people didn't expect the two of them to develop so fast after seeing Si Yan feeding Ye Qianling to drink medicine.

Among them, Chu Zimu's expression was even more intriguing, a little stunned, and a little angry and puzzled.

"Miss Wu, how are you now?" Zhao Mengge asked.

"It's okay, the injury is almost healed, thank you Brother Zhao for your concern." Ye Qianling didn't want others to worry about him, and he didn't want people to sympathize with him, so he didn't tell them the truth.

But looking at his face, he knew that Ye Qianling had lied, thinking that since he didn't want them to know, he didn't continue to talk about this topic.

Sui Yingai took the bowl in Si Yan's hand and continued to feed Ye Qianling, at this time Ye Qianling's tears finally stopped, and there were no tears at all for a while.

"Did you go there, and how did it taste?" Ye Qianling raised her head and asked calmly.

"It's okay, it's just that the brisket soup is too sweet, and a few of us are panicked." When Zhou Xiaojie heard this question, he immediately rushed to answer and express his dissatisfaction.

"I don't like to eat sweets either, and once I went on a hunger strike for three days after eating his beef brisket soup, it was too sweet." Ye Qianling agreed.

"You two haven't eaten anything, I just brought you some food, I bought a few dishes that we thought were delicious, you can taste them, if the taste is good, I will buy a few more later, we will keep them and go back to eat." Jian Suifei took out a few large bowls from the side, took two pairs of chopsticks, and put them on the table next to him.

"I have a little bit of each dish, Miss Wu has just finished anesthetic, and she can't get out of bed, so let's eat it on the bed." Si Yan said casually.

Ye Qianling felt embarrassed when she heard this, but after saying no, she still struggled several times and didn't get up, so she could only force herself to straighten up her upper body, lean on the soft cushion, and hold the vegetables little by little with her shaky hands, and slowly send them to her mouth.

Originally, Sui Yingai wanted to feed her, and it was really unbearable to see this, but even if they knew each other for a few days, these people knew how face-saving Ye Qianling was, so they didn't say anything like help.

"I'll go out and take a look and see if there's any place we can go to after Miss Wu recovers a little bit." Chu Zimu and Si Yan looked at each other and said to everyone.

"Wait a minute, I'll go too." Si Yan stopped Chu Zimu from leaving, put down the chopsticks for eating, and didn't eat much, thinking about what he should say to him, he followed Chu Zimu out of the house.

The two of them walked side by side, and they didn't speak for a long time, and finally Chu Zimu couldn't help it, and stopped to look at Si Yan, "What the hell do you think?" ”

"Then what do you think, Zimu?" When Si Yan heard such a question, he raised his head and looked at Chu Zimu expressionlessly.

Si Yan and Chu Zimu actually didn't know each other not long ago, the two of them were actually good friends who grew up together. Chu Zimu's real identity is Si Yan's prince attendant, but five years ago, Chu Zimu's father worked as a spy in the capital and needed Chu Zimu, the successor, to help play it more realistically, so he recruited Chu Zimu to the Night Kingdom.

Unexpectedly, five years later, Chu Zimu got a flying pigeon from Si Yan, saying that he would stay in the capital of the Night Kingdom for a while.

At that time, Chu Zimu was startled when he heard the news, and he couldn't believe it. Si Yan is the dignified crown prince of Yanguo, the future successor of the royal family, and his safety is so important. Besides, the Night Country and the Yan Country are the two most powerful countries on the continent, and the two countries have always regarded each other as their biggest competitors for a hundred years, even if the relationship has eased now, it is still calm under the storm, and they can't afford the slightest accident. In any case, the crown prince of a country came to the enemy country, which is simply fantastical and unrealistic.

Chu Zimu followed his instinct and immediately rejected Si Yan's idea, asking him to think about it again, no matter who this unrealistic idea was, he would not agree to it. But after Chu Zimu heard what Si Yan said, he immediately understood why Si Yan made such a choice, Chu Zimu didn't know Si Yan's situation in the royal family of Yan Kingdom, but the crown prince of an enemy country, how dangerous it was in the night country can be imagined, but after Si Yan and Chu Zimu analyzed the situation, Chu Zimu did not have any hesitation.

Si Yan told Chu Zimu that he had the heart to become a master, now was his most important time, his grandfather's family was in danger, and now he could only save his life by escaping from Yan Country for a short time, and it happened that such a big thing happened in the palace of the Night Kingdom, which was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

After deciding to do this, the two of them began to prepare, entering this place, originally Si Yan didn't want Chu Zimu to be involved, but Chu Zimu's father accidentally knew about it, so he ruthlessly let himself commit a crime and go to prison, so that his son could protect him by Si Yan's side and do what he could.

"What do you think? Ah Yan, don't you think your concern for Ye Qianling is a little too much? I'm a little unresponsive to your operation. Chu Zimu saw that there was no one around, and said in a low voice: "You shouldn't have liked this Ye Qianling after only knowing each other for a few days, don't you forget that Ye Qianling is the fifth princess of the Night Kingdom, don't you know how many of our compatriots she killed?" Chu Zimu was a little emotional.

"You've known me for so long, and you think I like her?" Si Yan's voice carried a domineering aura, and a low and magnetic voice came out.

"I know you won't, but even I was confused by what you just did. If you don't have any feelings for her, what do you care so much about just now? Chu Zimu asked.

Chu Zimu stared at Si Yan's meaningful smile, and gradually understood, "Should you be?" Chu Zimu wanted to say something, but seeing that Si Yan didn't deny it, his eyes suddenly widened, and he said in disbelief: "You don't really think that." After asking, I found out that this is really the case. "But I heard that Ye Qianling was tortured some time ago because the Queen of the Night Kingdom saved her to commit suicide, you see that she couldn't even hold a bowl in her hand just now, are you sure you want to do this to her?"

"You're soft-hearted?" Si Yan didn't have any expression in his eyes, raised his eyebrows, his eyes gradually became cold, Chu Zimu sighed in his heart, knowing that there was no way to change, although he was dissatisfied with Ye Qianling because of his hatred on the battlefield, but the girls had already become like this, and everyone betrayed their relatives and left, almost expelled from the house, how could they bear to fall into the well. Hearing Si Yan say on the side: "Just like you said, she killed too many of us, those people also have children under the age of twenty, and many people have become family backbones, and there are more and more miserable things, why don't you think about these people, do they deserve this kind of crime?" ”

Chu Zimu knew that it was difficult to change the things that Si Yan had determined, and for the sake of the interests of his family and country, it was better to ignore this kind of ordinary false comrade-in-arms that had only been discovered for a few days. didn't say anything more, and changed the topic, "When are you going to go back, I heard that His Majesty wanted to call you back several times, but he was still stopped by the concubine's faction, it seems that if you don't go back yourself, I won't summon you during this time." ”

"I know, in the past two years, I will definitely let everyone know that I am the future son of Yanguo, and I have this strength." Si Yan would not say such a thing to anyone except Chu Zimu, as the crown prince, his domineering and self-confidence can still be seen here in the real Si Yan after all.
