27 Chapter XXIII

The clean and tidy bed, the pillow even exuded a faint fragrance, I felt a little trance, the maids all retreated in interest, I sat on the edge of the bed for a while, sleepiness hit, my head became heavier and heavier, I sighed, took off my clothes, and lay down on the bed, perhaps because I was really tired, I fell asleep quickly in such a strange environment.

I wanted to wake up from my dream, but for some reason, it seemed that an invisible net had trapped me firmly in my dream, I struggled, but in vain, everything in front of me became distorted, I tried to break through the bondage, but in the end it was in vain.

In a daze, I seemed to hear heavy footsteps, and I tried very hard to open my eyes, but it seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and I couldn't carry that weight, so I had to give up.

I kept trying, trying my best to escape from the predicament, finally, I seemed to hear some shrill sound of the door closing, the scenery in front of me suddenly changed, the foggy wall shattered in front of my eyes like glass, I opened my eyes with trembling eyelashes, it was already bright outside, and I saw the carved top of the bed, I tried to move, but found that my whole body was tingling, I supported my elbows on the bed, struggled to sit up, but it was unsuccessful, my upper body fell back to the bed, making a loud noise.

The maidservant who was guarding the door immediately asked nervously and whispered, "Crown Princess, what's wrong with you?" ”

I looked down at my hands, frowned, and said, "Come in." ”

The door was pushed open with a "squeak", I remembered the sound I heard in my dream, and for a moment I was in a trance, and two beautiful and polite maids quickly walked up to me, and they didn't dare to look at me, so they only saluted and said, "Princess, what do you command?" ”

I lay straight on the bed and said in a hoarse voice, "I feel a little bad about me, you go and get a doctor." ”

One of them hurriedly went out to ask the doctor, and the other tried to help me sit up at my signal, but as soon as I moved, my whole body immediately ached very much, as if 10,000 needles were piercing my skin, the fire burned and hurt, and gradually, I even felt that my throat began to hurt.

When Bo Hongwen and Mrs. Bo arrived with the doctor, I had already endured the pain to take my pulse, but the strange thing was that my pulse was normal, but the physical discomfort was stronger than any time, even if I was injured before, it was not so painful, the old doctor with white hair was through the curtain, and his hand was on the silk handkerchief, and the old god gave me a pulse on the ground, and then shook his head and said some nonsense such as "Qi and blood are insufficient, and I need to live and recuperate".

I shook my head and denied it, and then one doctor after another was invited into the Bofu, but none of them got to the point, and they couldn't find any clues from it, so they could only prescribe me some medicine to calm my nerves and relieve pain, but my status was precious, and Bo Hongwen didn't dare to give me medicine indiscriminately, so I was so anxious that I turned around.

I gasped for breath, knowing in my heart that I could not leave for the time being, but I was afraid that the people in the house would worry, and I was even more afraid that because I would delay the cavalry's trip, I called Xin Sheng and asked him to lead the rest of the cavalry to return to the wind first, he saw that I was seriously ill overnight, and he was very frightened, and he was very stubborn and asked to stay and accompany me, but he still followed my instructions, and ordered someone to lead the tens of thousands of soldiers home as a leader.

I lay half-dead in bed for a day, I didn't eat, I relied on ginseng bird's nest to continue my strength, until it was getting late, Xin Sheng came back from outside, saying that the matter had been done, the army had set off to return to Beijing, and he followed the dozens of elite soldiers to stay in Bofu to protect my safety, until I recovered from my illness, and then returned to the wind together.

I nodded very weakly, and motioned for him to rest on his own, he glanced at me with some concern, and finally retreated, at this time my heart was screaming, I don't know what happened to me, and I don't know what to do, whether it can be cured, these doctors in Wuyang City invited by Bo Hongwen, the medical skills are really not flattering, and after a day of diagnosis and treatment, I didn't say anything at all, I was very disappointed, and I couldn't wait to ride back to the wind at this time, and let the old man Zong treat me.

Because as soon as I lay down, my back would feel a hot pain, so I kept sitting on the bed, but in the middle of the night, even if my body hurt again, my brain couldn't suppress the sleepiness, I was really a little unbearable, I simply didn't do it, and asked the people to cook a bowl of soothing soup for me, soon after taking it, my head really began to get groggy, and then fell into a deep sleep, but even under the effect of the medicine, I slept very unsteadily, tormented by the pain over and over, I don't know how long this has passed, maybe the power of sleep is too strong, maybe I forgot the pain in reality after entering the dream, in short, gradually, I seem to forget the evil disease that bothered me in the first place, and slowly fall asleep.

When I opened my eyes again, a strong burst of fire pierced into my eyes, and I reflexively closed my eyes again, but in that lightning-fast moment, I seemed to see a figure.

I reopened my eyes, and the first thing I noticed was that the pain in my body seemed to disappear, and then I could see the figure clearly.

A huge torch hung diagonally on the wall, shining with dazzling light, illuminating the entire basement, yes, after what I had just observed, I was sure that I was in a basement, and the tip of my nose could still smell a damp, somewhat rotten smell, I subconsciously moved my hands, only to find that my hands were firmly locked, and I lowered my head, and as expected, my feet were also shackled.

The figure was standing in the shadow under the torch, and I was shocked for a moment by what I saw in front of me, but after all these days, I was no longer the same person I used to be, so I reacted very quickly, and while looking at my surroundings, I thought very quickly in my mind.

I don't feel any discomfort in my body, so to speak, I didn't have a bad disease, but I was poisoned, it's ridiculous, I'm a descendant of the poison fairy, I didn't diagnose and treat myself poisoned, on the one hand, it's true that I'm not good at learning, lonely and unheard, on the other hand, it should be related to my recent days of running, I was in abnormal pain yesterday, I couldn't even stand up, let alone use my left hand to check the pulse of my right hand, in this state of fatigue very, frightened and frightened, I didn't find out, and there is a reason.

I was secretly glad that my body was still healthy, but everything in front of me made me have to admit that I seemed to have fallen into some trap, I couldn't help but think of the dream that I couldn't escape from the first night, and the voice I heard in the confusion, it turned out that everything was not a dream, but something that really happened, could it be that the poison on my body was given at that time?

But I'm already in Dongxu!

Because of this, I relaxed my vigilance, and just returned from another country, I have a completely close and trusting attitude towards this Dongxu under the rule of Jun Qianchen, even if I have a very dislike of Bo Hongwen.

Originally, I only planned to stay here for one day, and then go to Xiaobai's house at the foot of Yulong Mountain to have a look and leave......

I suddenly had a clever idea, the purpose of the man poisoning me was to keep me, and secondly...... Let those tens of thousands of troops return first!

The worry in my heart is getting bigger and bigger, could it be that everything was done by Bo Hongwen? But what is his purpose in doing so? He is a courtier of Dongxu, and I am the princess of the dignified prince, didn't he cause death for himself like this? But I'm in the Bofu, who is he if it's not him? Who can quietly snatch me out of the well-guarded Palpitation?

All my suspicions were confirmed when the figure I could ignore came out of the shadows.

That person is ...... Bo Yongzhi.

In just a few years, he was already as old as a middle-aged man in his forties, and if I hadn't observed him carefully, I wouldn't have recognized him at this time, and his face was haggard, his expression was gloomy, and he was wearing a wide camel-colored robe, and he was glaring at me viciously.

I suddenly understood, I was really imprisoned by Bo Hongwen!

Although it is rumored that I am Chai Ji, after all, no one has ever confirmed it, and there is no shadow, and I have never shown my true face in front of others, I have never been worried, Bo Hongwen will treat me disrespectfully because of this, after all, on the surface, I am now the crown princess of Dongxu, even if he has doubts in his heart, he does not dare to do anything to me anyway, not to mention, when I was Chai Ji, I did contribute to him, although I got it later, but the page that records how to solve Bo Yongzhi's poison has long been torn away by the wind, It's not like I was deliberately hiding it, and besides, he didn't know about it.

But now, seeing Bo Yongzhi's expression of almost eating people, I am not so sure in my heart.

Is there something going on that I don't know about?

I think of the symptoms of Bo Yongzhi's poison, like dementia, it seems that he has suffered a lot in recent years, he is sober for a while, confused for a while, and when he is sober, he suffers like dementia when he is poisoned, but there is no other way, the antidote has disappeared with the death of Tingfeng, there is nothing in this world that can save him, and in his lifetime, he will use this way to pay for his previous mistakes.

He should have been a rare moment of sobriety now, but he used this time to see me, and my heart was turning a thousand times, and everything in front of me made me feel both inexplicable and a strange sense of urgency and panic, and I thought for a while, and saw that he was staring at me intently, and had no intention of saying or doing anything, so I finally decided to ask him.

But before I could say anything, the basement door slammed open.
