"Knock Knock"

Just then, there was a knock on the door, waking him up from his dream.

Suddenly, an old man's voice came from outside the door: "Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, the time for the princess to take medicine has arrived." ”

Hearing the sound, Mei Zhixuan opened his eyes violently, and looked at the quiet face of the sleeping woman lying on the couch who still seemed to have no improvement at all, although he was anxious, he could only frown helplessly and exhale lightly.

After a pause, he stretched out a pair of slender hands, carefully picked up the horns for him, and then got up and responded: "Come in." ”

Immediately, I saw a seventy-year-old man in a white robe, a wooden cane in his hand, and a snow-white hair and beard, with a big eye, looking very smart, and a green-clothed girl who was no more than twelve or thirteen years old on the left pushed the door and paced in.

"His Royal Highness the Third Prince."

The girl in green held a medicine plate in both hands, and as soon as she approached Mei Zhixuan's side as soon as she entered the door, she bowed respectfully to her.

"Hmm." Mei Zhixuan inadvertently bowed his head slightly and snorted lightly.

The girl in green then turned to the woman on the couch, sat down beside her and raised her head, then filled it with a spoonful of medicinal soup, put it to her mouth and blew it carefully, before slowly sending it into the mouth of the woman on the couch.

Fortunately, the woman was able to swallow the soup. So, with a smile on her face, the girl began to continue spoonful by spoonful, and seemed to have moved with great skill, and carefully began to feed it.

"What is the princess's condition now?"

Mei Zhixuan didn't watch the medicinal soup slowly start to enter the woman's body smoothly, then he slowly turned around with one hand behind his back, paced towards the side of the desk in the room, and sat down.

The white-bearded old man followed his footsteps, poured a cup of hot tea that had just been carefully boiled and brought in, and handed it to Mei Zhixuan: "Third prince, please use tea." ”

Mei Zhixuan took it with one hand and took a sip of tea soup.

The white-bearded old man also sat down beside him, shook his head after a little thought, and reluctantly blamed himself: "The old slave is incompetent, please punish His Highness." Months had passed, but the princess had remained so motionless and unconscious. In addition to trying to feed her some medicinal soup that can replenish her physical strength every day. The others, the old slaves, seem to be unable to do anything. ”

Mei Zhixuan listened, and his brows furrowed closer and closer.

Thinking about it, he couldn't figure it out since he returned to Dongning, so he asked the old man in wonder: "The princess is like this, what's going on?" ”

The old man stretched out his hand and stroked his beard, looked at the thin face of the woman on the couch, and said in surprise: "For this extremely strange and rare disease in the world that the princess obtained, for several months, the old slave has rummaged through all kinds of medicine collection allusions, but he has not found any clues, and he has always found nothing!" ”

After a pause, he said, "The old slave has ordered Lu'er to carefully inspect the princess's body, and there are no injuries. And all along, the princess's daily pulse is also quite smooth and relaxed, compared with ordinary people, there is no abnormality. But for some reason, he just can't wake up. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man let out a long sigh and said, "Strange, really weird! ”

At this moment, the girl in green had finished feeding the whole bowl of medicinal soup, got up to cover the brocade quilt for the woman, and quietly withdrew with the medicine tray.

The white-bearded old man nodded at him slightly, and the green-clothed girl bowed and walked out of the door, gently closing the door.

The room was silent.

Outside the hut, the only thing left was the whispering of the gentle sea breeze at night.

The name of the island is "Blue Island".

Facing the sea in the east, surrounded by mountains, the hills are beautiful and upright, the hills are stretching and stacking green, the mountains are full of pines and cypresses, the forests are verdant in all seasons, the green tea is lush, and the environment is elegant and quiet.

The blue sea under the bright galaxy is sparkling and dreamy.

The sea breeze is gusting, and the romantic sea of flowers on the island has spread to the edge of the cliff, so that the salty sea breeze blowing over the cliff wall also brings the fragrance of flowers, poetic to any fairy tale.

Away from the hustle and bustle of the people, in this blue sea and blue sky, white sails and sandy beaches, it should be to wash the lead, stay away from the rolling red dust, and forget all the worldly troubles and fame and fortune.

But people who are in such a fairyland on earth have ambitions that are particularly incompatible with their gentle and jade-like appearance.

Just when the two of them were racking their brains for this, the white-bearded old man seemed to suddenly think of something again, and asked: "Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, the old slave dares to ask, did anything unusual happen to the princess before she fell unconscious?" ”

"Before the coma, something unusual ......" Mei Zhixuan heard it, silently repeating and falling into memory. fate

Suddenly, he patted the table in front of him and exclaimed, "By the way, how did this prince leave such important information behind." ”

"Important information? What is that? What did Your Highness remember? The white-bearded old man hurriedly asked.

Mei Zhixuan slowly got up and took two steps forward, towards the woman on the couch, and recalled: "When this prince first found the princess in the Western Qin Kingdom, I heard that she had been in a coma for such a long time before, and I heard that it was a year long......"

"Been in a coma for a year?" The white-bearded old man was stunned.

Mei Zhixuan nodded silently with his back to him, and the white-bearded old man also looked at the woman on the couch.

Then he was surprised: "The old slave has never heard of someone who can be in a coma for so long and can still wake up." It seems that this girl is absolutely extraordinary! ”

The two were silent together for a while, and Mei Zhixuan said meaningfully: "You're right, she is indeed not an ordinary woman. ”

"Yes! As soon as the old slave sees her these days, he can't help but think of the plague that hit the whole country and almost killed me in Dongning, the streets and alleys, everywhere corpses are everywhere, and the queen is a small female streamer, but her strength is better than countless imperial doctors. She trekked through mountains and rivers to collect good medicines, and studied prescriptions without sleep or food, so that she could save the people of my country. God blesses, I am the descendant of Empress Dongning, and my destiny is naturally extraordinary! ”

The white-bearded old man said excitedly in a tone of awe.

"Perhaps...... And that's not all. Mei Zhixuan said mysteriously.

"Not only that, what does the third prince mean by this?" The white-bearded old man asked puzzled.

"Have you ever heard... Guardian of Western Qin? Mei Zhixuan suddenly turned around and looked into the old man's eyes and asked seriously.

The old man was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said, "The guardian of Western Qin ......"

Mei Zhixuan nodded slightly, the old man stroked his beard, recalled for a moment, and the two of them slowly sat down again.

The old man said quietly: "The old slave traveled in Nan'an when he was young, and he once saw it in a secret book. Legend has it that its founding ancestor tasted all the strange poisonous herbs in the world when he studied medicine over time, and finally changed his essence and blood. Later, when they reproduced, they all inherited the peculiar bloodline of their ancestors. ”

Mei Zhixuan seemed to be unaware of these peculiar words, and listened carefully with particular seriousness and interest: "Legend has it that using this kind of blood as a guide, you can make the strongest poison in the world, and you can also cure the strongest poison in the world, and it can cure all kinds of diseases, and there are even rumors that 'those who get this blood will win the world'." ”

"Whoever gets this blood gets the world?" Mei Zhixuan repeated silently.

The white-bearded old man nodded and continued: "Later, I heard that there was a defection in this tribe, and the last remaining direct descendant was exiled to the Western Qin Kingdom in the Lingkong Continent, where he was able to multiply and become the founding hero and the most loyal guardian of the Western Qin royal family. ”

"It turns out that the guardian of Western Qin is like this?!" Mei Zhixuan finally understood.

The white-bearded old man nodded, and said with a little regret: "But everyone knows that the guardians of Western Qin are extremely loyal, and they were born only to protect the Heavenly Son of Western Qin. Therefore, even if my Dongning Kingdom has been strong in the past few years, the country is rich and the people are strong, and the wind and rain are smooth, but because I am afraid of the existence of this mysterious force, I have not dared to take any action against Western Qin! ”

"Really? But according to this prince, this may not be. Unexpectedly, Mei Zhixuan suddenly let out a cold laugh.

"The old slave still doesn't understand the meaning of the three princes' words?" The white-bearded old man asked, as he listened to it, the more he didn't seem to understand.

There was a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and Mei Zhixuan suddenly exploded: "This prince suspects, princess, she is very likely to be the descendant of the guardian of Western Qin who has been missing for many years." ”

"What? Princess, she... She was... The princess is a descendant of the guardian of Western Qin? The white-bearded old man suddenly stood up and looked at Mei Zhixuan's cold side face, stunned.

But in an instant, he suddenly realized: "It turns out that this is why the third prince didn't bring the princess back to the palace for good healing, but wanted to hide her in this blue island!" ”

couldn't help but continue to think about it, and the old man's heart suddenly seemed to be shocked by something: "Third prince, you want to use the mysterious power of the guardian of Western Qin to seek power and usurp the throne!" ”

Ran Mei Zhixuan let him talk to himself, only poured himself a cup of hot tea, drank it slowly, and stopped talking.

Although Mei Zhixuan seemed to have a lot of confidence and certainty in his heart, the white-bearded old man still tried to persuade one or two: "The third prince, as the saying goes, everyone has their own fate, and the high place is unbearable. For that position of being high up and being the only one, why should Your Highness be too persistent? ”

Hearing this, Mei Zhixuan stood up suddenly, leaned into the tip of the old man's nose and said to him angrily: "What is life? No one wants to be trampled under their feet forever. From childhood to adulthood, no matter how good the prince is, his father has never paid attention to it, just because the biological mother of this prince is a humble maidservant. This prince must rely on his own ability to prove to his father that without his support, this prince can still become the only overlord on this spiritual sky continent. No one can stop the choice of this prince, no one can! ”

The white-bearded old man shook his head and said, "Third prince, if you are too obsessed, you will suffer from it." ”

Mei Zhixuan seemed to have lost his mind, snorted coldly at him, and said resolutely: "I have made up my mind, there is no need to say more." You heal her for me as soon as possible, and you don't have to worry about anything else. ”

With that, he turned and walked out the door. Just as he was about to step out of the threshold, he suddenly stopped......
