Zhao Ling looked at the murderer kneeling on the ground with a gloomy look in his eyes.

Reason told him that Zhao Xuan would never do anything to hurt Chu Xingyue, after all, the two of them loved each other so much.

But how does this explain what is happening today?

Could it be that there is something else hidden in this?

Yunxiao also looked at Zhao Ling with a strange face, and spoke, "Lord Wang, what should I do?" ”

Zhao Ling glanced at the murderer who was kneeling on the ground and kept praying, Chu Xingyue's pale and delicate appearance appeared in front of him, and finally, he said coldly, "If the person you hurt is this king, this king may spare your life, but the person you hurt is her." ”

When the murderer heard this, he only felt that his eyes were dark, and he raised his face full of tears and blood in a daze, and looked at Zhao Ling blankly.

"The most unforgivable thing in this king's life is that someone dares to hurt someone who cares about this king under the nose of this king, and this king gives you a neat way to die, which can be regarded as a relief for you."

While the other murderer who was suffering looked at his companion's pale face, while enduring the pain from his body, he laughed out loud, "I have long seen that no matter whether you and I confess or not, there will be no good end, but it is ridiculous that you are greedy for life and afraid of death, and at the last moment you actually betrayed your master; But, what did you gain by betraying your master? Not a dead end? ”

Hearing the words of his companion, the murderer sat on the ground with weak legs, and he quickly recovered from his stunned shock, and after a while, he actually laughed aloud, but there was a cry in the laughter.

He knows that he is greedy for life and afraid of death, and he knows that he is innocent of death, but who in this world dares to say that he doesn't want to live well?

If there really is a way to live, who wants to choose a dead end?

It's a pity that he has done all the bad things in his life, and he deserves to end up like today.

……

Zhao Ling walked out of the prison and happened to bump into Han Fang, who was guarding outside and was nervous.

Han Fang was a literati, and he was most afraid of seeing some bloody and bloody miserable situations, so when Yunxiao started to torture the two murderers, he quietly exited the cell and waited outside.

After waiting for a little half a moment, he waited for King Ling out, and was just about to ask how the situation was, but when he saw King Ling's cold face, Han Fang's whole heart also sank.

It seems that the situation is not very good.

"Lord Wang, Xia Guan has already sent someone to the nearby states and counties to find a famous doctor, and he will definitely do his best to treat the princess."

Hearing Han Fang's words, Zhao Ling's gloomy eyes finally turned and looked at him, "Got it." ”

"Lord Wang, Zhou Lao is the most famous doctor here, don't worry, with him here, he will definitely protect the princess."

Han Fang really couldn't bear to look at the expression on Zhao Ling's face, at this moment, King Ling in front of him was like a wounded lion, he no longer had the majestic temperament of the past, and he was distressed to look at it.

Zhao Ling really wasn't in the mood to say anything more to Han Fang, so he just nodded at him and walked in the direction of the post house.

He hopes that he can be by her side more, and hopefully, there will be a miracle, and he will not let her really leave him.

As soon as Zhao Ling and Han Fang walked out of the state office, they saw the guards in charge of guarding the city gate coming on horseback, and after seeing Zhao Ling and Han Fang, the guards quickly turned over and dismounted, came to the two of them, and saluted with fists.

"See His Royal Highness King Ling, I've seen Lord Han."

Zhao Ling just glanced at the city gate guards and was about to leave, Han Fang was curious that the city gate guards didn't look at the city gate well, how did they run to the state office.

"What are you doing here?"

The city gate guard thought of the reason why he came here, and hurriedly stopped Zhao Ling, who was about to leave, and said, "His Royal Highness King Ling, Lord Han, my subordinates dare to ask if the princess in the post house has encountered an accident at this moment?" ”

Zhao Ling, who had already moved away, immediately stopped when he heard this, with a thick guard in his eyes, and turned his head to look coldly at the city gate guard.

Han Fang also looked at the guard in surprise and said in surprise, "How do you know?" At this moment, no one else knows about the princess's accident except for the people in the post house, how did you hear about it? ”

The guard general is also a military general, and when he looked at Zhao Ling's imposing eyes, he was immediately frightened, and quickly lowered his head, and said, "Don't dare to hide Your Highness and your lordship, at this moment, there is a mule cart outside the city gate that insists on breaking into the city, and the person sitting on the mule cart is a young man dressed as a scholar, he said that he knows the princess Niangniang, and also said that he knew that the princess had an accident and came to the rescue." ”

The corners of Zhao Ling's eyebrows jumped fiercely, and his lips almost pursed into a thin line.

The more Han Fang listened, the more he felt that things were strange, and he looked at Zhao Ling, who had an indistinguishable look in his eyes, and said with a worried expression, "Lord Wang, look at this ......, the lower officials can guarantee that the princess's accident was very well concealed, and none of the superfluous people knew about it, someone must have accidentally revealed the news to make people notice; Xia Guan thinks that this person is strange, or else, this will make people drive this person away, so that he will not talk nonsense again? ”

"Nope! Bring this man, and the king will see him himself. ”

The guards obeyed the order and immediately rode away.

Han Fang was a cautious character, and when he saw that King Ling actually wanted to meet the unidentified person, he was afraid that there would be any more accidents at this time, so he followed behind Zhao Ling and persuaded him again.

"Lord Wang, now that the law and order in Yuezhou City is unstable, there are always small people who set up names and secretly harbor ghosts; How noble the identity of the prince is, it is better to be careful in everything, and do not give the villain a chance to exploit loopholes; Xia Guan can understand that the prince is worried about the princess, but he still needs to be cautious. ”

Looking at Han Fang, who was chattering behind him, Zhao Ling's head was big.

At this time, his heart was on Chu Xingyue's body, let alone letting him meet one or two strangers, even if he was asked to go to a dangerous place, he wouldn't even frown.

He was already in a depressed mood because of Chu Xingyue's injury and poisoning, and he was quickly annoyed by Han Fang's chatter, so he stopped, turned around suddenly, and looked straight at Han Fang, who was not very old, but even the middle-aged servant was willing to bow down.

"Han Fang!"

Han Fang raised his head and looked at Zhao Ling, "The lower official is here." ”

"The princess's life is hanging by a thread now, although Zhou Lao is good at medicine, but he is not a master of developing poison prescriptions, in other words, we don't even have a way now; For this king, Yue'er's life is more than thousands of people, even if there is a slight chance to save her, this king will give it a try at all costs; Don't dissuade this king anymore, this king has made up his mind, do you understand? ”

Han Fang looked at Zhao Ling, who had a serious expression, and nodded sneeringly; At this moment, he realized that in the heart of the prince, the princess actually occupied such an important position.

It seems that as Yunxiao said, if Princess Ling really had an accident in Yuezhou City, with King Ling's character, I am afraid that the entire Yuezhou will tremble a few times.

After half a pillar of incense, the guard took the man he spoke to the front hall of the mansion and met Zhao Ling.

Zhao Ling sat on the upper seat of the front hall, looking at the two men who followed behind the guard with heavy eyes.

One of the men looked like a farmer, loyal and honest; The other man was emaciated, dressed as a scholar in a bamboo-green cloth robe, and his jet-black hair was tied up by a wooden hairpin, revealing a smooth forehead and delicate facial features.

Looking at the handsome man in front of him, Zhao Ling subconsciously squinted his eyes, he always felt that this person looked a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

Noticing Zhao Ling's look on him, the man walked up and saluted Zhao Ling with a fist without humility or arrogance, "Student Yuan Feng has seen His Royal Highness King Ling. ”

Zhao Ling's eyes never moved away from the man who claimed to be Yuan Feng, looking at his indifferent and calm expression, the curiosity about him in his heart increased a little.

The common people will show a cowardly and timid look whenever they meet the royal family and nobles, even if they are some bold people, it is extremely difficult to be as calm as him; In a flash of light, Zhao Ling made a judgment that this man named Yuan Feng was definitely not as simple as an ordinary scholar.

It's just that Chu Xingyue's matter is the top priority at the moment, and other matters can be postponed for the time being.

Zhao Ling stretched out his hand and motioned for Yuan Feng to reply without courtesy, "This king heard that you want to see this king's princess?" ”

Yuan Feng's delicate face showed a meticulous expression, and his eyes looked at Zhao Ling with extremely bright eyes, "The student is bold, I want to ask His Royal Highness King Ling, but Princess Ling had an accident and was poisoned?" ”

Zhao Ling's hand on the chair handle immediately tightened, and his pupils shrank, "Where did you hear about the princess?" ”

"The prince hasn't answered the student's question yet."

Han Fang, who was standing on the side, had never seen such a bold scholar, so he immediately stood up and scolded, "Bold Diao Min, you actually dare to talk to the prince like this, don't you know the difference between respect and inferiority?" ”

Yuan Feng let out a sneer, glanced at Han Fang, and said, "If the prince is still thinking about the difference between respect and inferiority with the students at this moment, then Princess Ling's life may really be lost." ”

Zhao Ling's face immediately became gloomy, and the powerful qi pressure on his body also followed, and his eyes stared at Yuan Feng intently, as if he wanted to see the depths of his soul.

"Is there a way you can save the life of this princess?"

After pausing for a while, Zhao Ling finally said this.

When Han Fang heard this, he immediately opened his mouth to speak to Zhao Ling, but was stopped by Zhao Ling's outstretched gesture, and only heard him continue, "Yes, this king doesn't hide it from you, Yue'er, she did encounter an accident, and life and death are unpredictable at the moment." ”

Hearing the words 'unpredictable life and death' from Zhao Ling's mouth, Yuan Feng's palm tightened in an instant, it seems that the news he got from Que'er's mouth is not wrong at all, the young master, she really has an accident.

Yuan Feng didn't dare to expose too much emotion in front of Zhao Ling, so he could only suppress the impatience that was tumbling in his heart, and said, "Lord Wang, please rest assured, students have studied various medical classics since they were young, and they have experience in all kinds of drugs and poisons. ”

"It's just that the student has a request, please ask the prince to agree to the student."

Zhao Ling asked, "What do you want?" ”

"Please agree, don't ask the student where he learned about the princess's poisoning, okay?"
