Chapter 49: The Pain of Being Hollowed Out

Seeing Zhan Qi walking out with Du Xiaomeng in his arms, the eunuch on the side hurriedly picked up the lantern and trotted to the front to light the way.

Du Xiaomeng grabbed Zhan Qi's arm tightly and nestled quietly in his arms motionless. Her excessive quietness made Zhan Qi uneasy, and Zhan Qi lowered his head after walking a few steps and said uneasily: "Xiaomeng, if you feel uncomfortable, tell me immediately." ”

Du Xiaomeng didn't answer him immediately, but was silent for a moment before asking softly, "Is the poison in my body attacking?" Am I going to die soon? ”

Zhan Qi's footsteps faltered, but in an instant, he accelerated his pace forward, and said in a nonchalant tone: "How can it be so easy to die? You're just an ordinary poison, go to the imperial doctor and get some antidote and you'll be fine. ”

Du Xiaomeng put his face on his body, and still didn't believe it, and asked again: "If you take the antidote, you will definitely be fine?" ”

Zhan Qi replied affirmatively: "Of course! If you don't believe me, you have to believe in the antidote made by the imperial doctor. ”

After listening to Zhan Qi's very affirmative answer, Du Xiaomeng seemed to be a little relieved, and after she said "I believe in you", she closed her tired eyes and stopped asking other questions.

Soon, Zhan Qi walked to the gate of the cold palace with Du Xiaomeng in his arms. Out of the palace gate, he suddenly stopped walking forward.

At the same time, Du Xiaomeng heard a chaotic footsteps running over here, and she was about to open her eyes to see what was happening, but she heard the eunuch leading the way shouting: "The slave greets His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

Before she could react, she felt a gust of wind turn in front of her, and then she heard Yu Tianzheng's nervous voice sounding in front of her: "Xiaomeng, what's wrong with her?" ”

Zhan Qi replied in a deep voice: "The poison has already started, her eyes can't see clearly, and I was about to take her to the imperial doctor to get the antidote." ”

Du Xiaomeng opened her eyes, only to see a hazy light and a figure standing in front of her.

Yu Tianzheng looked at Du Xiaomeng, who was nestled in Zhan Qi's arms, his eyes were blank, his expression was dull and his face was bloodless, and he anxiously stretched out his hands to Zhan Qi and said, "Give Xiaomeng to me!" ”

Du Xiaomeng and Zhan Qi were stunned for a moment, and then, Du Xiaomeng's hands subconsciously increased their strength to grasp Zhan Qi's arm, raised their heads and tried to see his face in vain with a pair of eyes that could not see things clearly.

Zhan Qi felt that Du Xiaomeng was grasping at him, and looked down at her, just in time to meet her godless eyes; Raising his head again to look at Yu Tianzheng, Yu Tianzheng stretched out his hands to him with an anxious expression, and a pair of eyes were tightly locked on Du Xiaomeng's face.

"Give me Xiaomeng!" Yu Tianzheng hurriedly urged again.

Zhan Qi's gaze quickly circled between Yu Tianzheng and Du Xiaomeng. One is a good brother who was born and died, and the other is him...... The woman whom his good brother liked. He had no position to hold Du Xiaomeng in his arms and take her away.

He hesitated, and finally handed Du Xiaomeng over to Yu Tianzheng.

Du Xiaomeng tried in vain to grab his arm, but Yu Tianzheng had already taken her over, her hand let go and slipped down Zhan Qi's sleeve, she was weak and powerless, she couldn't resist and couldn't continue to grasp what she wanted to grasp in her hand.

fell into Yu Tianzheng's arms, this embrace she had never expected made her feel breathless; And Zhan Qi once again pushed her to Yu Tianzheng without hesitation, giving her a strong sense of grief that she had never felt before.

The previous moment made her greedy to rely on, this moment it completely collapsed and shattered, broken to the point that she couldn't get any scraps, broken into a handful of salt called "disappointment", sprinkled all over her heart.

Grief and disappointment were tearing at her fiercely, and soon her heart full of disappointment was torn into a thousand holes, dripping with blood.

She secretly clenched her fists and wanted to suppress the pain in her heart, wanting to show her calm as if nothing had happened, but her weak body could no longer bear such pain, she only felt that the world was spinning for a while, and there was a rush of air in her chest that was so blocked that she vomited out a mouthful of blood and closed her eyes and fainted.

Yu Tianzheng's face changed, and he hurriedly hugged her and ran quickly in one direction.

When he saw Du Xiaomeng vomiting blood and fainting, Zhan Qi's heart fluttered, he wanted to rush up and get her back from Yu Tianzheng's hands, his body moved, but reason made him suppress the impulse in his heart, and he paused his feet that wanted to get closer to Du Xiaomeng.

Standing in place and watching Yu Tianzheng hug Du Xiaomeng, he quickly ran away. There was still Du Xiaomeng's temperature and breath in his empty arms, and somewhere in his heart, there was a feeling of being hollowed out with her departure.
