Chapter 44: Poison in the body

She closed her mouth and rested again.

In order to find the two of them, Shangjing has turned the sky upside down, whether it is the assassin or the group of secret guards responsible for protecting Qi Changrong, they are all conducting a carpet search like crazy.

No one could have imagined that they would sleep peacefully in a ruined temple at this time.

Junchen was woken up by a burst of burnt smell.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Qi Changrong grilling fish.

The surface of the fish had been grilled to a blackened surface, and it was estimated that it was still half-cooked inside.

Xu was because he had just woken up, Junchen was still a little unconscious, and his voice became extremely slow: "Where did Your Highness catch the fish from?" ”

Qi Changrong continued to roast without looking back, as if he couldn't smell the burning smell getting stronger and stronger: "There is a river not far ahead, the water quality is good, and the fish are also fat. ”

Jun Chen silently got up and walked out, and when he came back, he was carrying two big fish in his hands.

The two fish were still struggling, their tails dripping into the water.

Qi Changrong lifted his eyelids and glanced at it, and without any hesitation, he threw the two pieces of black charcoal in his hand to the side, staring at Junchen with blank eyes.

Jun Chen said slowly: "The two fish are mine." ”

That being said, after the fish was baked, Qi Changrong chose the largest one.

Without seasonings, except for a faint fishy smell, it still tastes nothing, but it is many times better than the black charcoal she roasted before.

After eating, Junchen asked casually, "When does Your Highness plan to return to the palace?" ”

Qi Changrong glanced at him in surprise: "It turns out that the general knows that Lone is deliberately delaying time." ”

She thought he didn't know anything.

The corners of Jun Chen's mouth twitched, he just didn't want to think about it when he left the battlefield, he was not stupid.

Under the light of the fire, Qi Changrong's face became colder and colder: "Now there are eyeliners everywhere in Beijing, and the things you and I have to do must not be hidden from people's eyes, if you don't want to fall into the mouth, you have to have a legitimate reason to associate with you." ”

One is the prince of the East Palace, and the other is a general with great power, if the relationship between the two is too close, if someone with a heart stabs him in front of Emperor Jin An to make an article, then they should have a headache.

As the emperor, it is most taboo that the people below are involved too secretly.

Junchen raised his eyebrows: "So His Highness came up with a plan, let me save your life, so that in the future, under the pretext of repaying your kindness, you can enter and leave the Jun's Mansion openly?" ”

Qi Changrong asked rhetorically: "Does the general think this strategy is not good?" ”

She thinks it's very good, she can not only protect Junchen as a matter of course, but also make Jiang Bowen and his party so worried that they don't want to eat.

In fact, it kills two birds with one stone, and the best of both worlds.

Jun Chen's lips moved slightly, and he was about to say that Qi Changrong was naΓ―ve, if the emperor wanted to suspect someone, let alone use the grace of saving his life as a guise, even if he was unceremonious to his siblings who were from the same lineage.

When the words came to her mouth, she could see the light coming out of her eyes, and Junchen swallowed it back again.

"It's good."

Junchen heard himself answer.

Qi Changrong looked at him and told him with the most sincere eyes and the most calm tone: "Since Gu is doing everything possible to pull the general into the gang, no matter what happens later, Gu will definitely do his best to protect the general and the Jun family." ”

Even if you fight for this life, you will not hesitate.

Her eyes are clear, like the most brilliant galaxy in the sky, and the light of the stars is even more indivisible.

As if he had been burned, Jun Chen's heart beat faster in an instant, and he hurriedly looked away, stirred the fire with a wooden stick, and asked steadily, "This group of assassins today was arranged by His Highness?" ”

Qi Changrong shook his head and nodded again: "Yes and no, Lone doesn't know who instructed them, Lone just guessed that they wouldn't be able to hold back." ”

Sooner or later, there would be such a day, she just brought the time forward.

"Have you ever thought that if Your Highness didn't have me by your side today, maybe Your Highness would really be in their secret hands."

Qi Changrong was not straightforward and strong: "If there was no general, Gu would not have arranged it like this." ”

Junchen was so shocked by her brazenness that he had nothing to say.

The night came slowly, but Jun Chen was a little distracted, and his eyes drifted to Qi Changrong from time to time, with obvious shock and hesitation.

I don't know if it's his delusion, I always feel that Qi Changrong's lips are getting darker and darker, as if he has been poisoned.

This was the most torturous night Junchen had, and he didn't dare to close his eyes all night, for fear that Qi Changrong would have an accident when he fell asleep.

Qi Changrong was petite, his face became more and more pale, and he sat by the fire with a slight sway, as if he would fall down in the next moment.

The first light of the day finally rose, and the torturous night passed, and Junchen's heart was relieved.

Qi Changrong also endured it to the extreme, and suddenly with a 'wow' sound, he spit out a mouthful of black blood, just to extinguish the remaining bit of spark.

Jun Chen's face changed suddenly: "Your Highness?!" ”

Qi Changrong paused, and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth casually: "You always have to do a full set of plays, and the next thing depends on General Jun's acting skills." ”

As soon as these words came out, Junchen still didn't understand anything.

This poison was inflicted by herself.

His complicated shock did not escape Qi Changrong's eyes, Qi Changrong pulled the corners of his lips and smiled bitterly, and said angrily: "Does the general think that Lone is too vicious?" ”

Jun Chen came back to his senses, and after thinking about it, he shook his head: "Those who achieve great things are not informal, and besides, His Highness has not done anything that people and gods are angry about." ”

Qi Changrong nodded reassuringly, and closed his eyes peacefully in his arms: "That's good, take Gu back to the palace, I'm afraid it will be too late if it's too late......"

Jun Chen understood the meaning of his words and knew what she was thinking, so in order to avoid delaying the best time, he immediately rushed to the imperial city with all his might.

There were not many people on the streets in the morning, only a few people saw a man running frantically towards the imperial city with another man in his arms.

Before Junchen arrived in the imperial city, someone found his traces, immediately stopped him halfway, and said sharply: "Who are you?" This is not the place for you to set foot in, get out of here! ”

Jun Chen's voice was even more cold and angry: "Open your dog eyes and watch carefully, this is the prince of the East Palace!" You stopped me indiscriminately, if something happens to Your Highness, can you be responsible? ”

The person who came was startled by his suddenly raised voice, and as his words fell, he subconsciously looked at the person in his arms, sure enough, who else could that familiar face be besides the prince of the East Palace?

At this time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's lips were black, his eyes were closed, and he obviously looked like he was highly poisonous.

After taking a closer look, it was the general of the Jun family who was in the limelight in recent days who was holding the prince of the East Palace.

Someone wanted to come up and watch, but someone suddenly said: "Open the palace gate and let them in." ”

Although the rest of the people didn't know why, they still opened the palace gate according to their words, and the moment the palace gate opened, Jun Chen suddenly ran out with Qi Changrong away from the arrow string, and disappeared from their field of vision after a while.

And the direction in which he disappeared was the direction of the East Palace.

At the same time, the chief of the palace gate guard who stopped Jun Chen did not dare to delay, and said loudly: "Immediately send a message to Your Majesty, and say that His Highness has been rescued by General Jun!" ”

The attack on the prince of the East Palace was a major event, not to mention that there was no trace after the attack, so only a very few people knew that Qi Changrong had encountered an assassin.

Listening to what the chief of the guard said, many people were in the clouds, and their hearts were full of doubts, and they wanted to ask a few more questions, but they were afraid that they would not be able to save Xiang Shang's head.

The atmosphere in the East Palace was condensed, Jun Chen was kneeling in the outer hall with his eyes half-closed, and the courtyard of the Tai Hospital was hurrying to bandage his wounds.

The wound on his arm had turned black, and there was still a slight fluctuation to the touch, and the courtyard was frowning: "The general's injury looks a little strange, isn't it that the thief has smeared poison on the weapon?" ”

Junchen rolled his throat and let out a 'hmm'.

He knew in his heart that he didn't feel the slightest agreement on his arm, and it should be the effect of the medicine that Qi Changrong sprinkled on his wound.

But I can't tell anyone about this.

A chaotic footsteps sounded outside the East Palace, Jun Chen opened his eyes and looked up at the palace door, and after a while, Emperor Jin An, dressed in a yellow robe, walked quickly from outside.

Emperor Jin An's face was cold, and he looked like a storm was coming.

Jun Chen struggled to salute Emperor Jin An, who stepped up and pressed his shoulders in two steps, and said in a deep voice: "Don't be polite, since you are injured, let the imperial doctor treat your wounds well." ”

Under the gaze of Emperor Jin An, the courtyard was more and more careful, and his movements were fast and light, and he quickly picked out the carrion in Junchen's hand and applied the best palace secret medicine.

After it was over, Junchen's hand changed from a big pig's trotter to a small pig's trotter.

I don't know how many times more beautiful than Qi Changrong's bandaging.

Emperor Jin An sat on the throne, and a compelling momentum pressed towards Jun Chen: "Aiqing told me about this matter from beginning to end. ”

He wanted to see who dared to break ground on Tai Sui's head.

This is Shangjing, and the feet of the Son of Heaven are blessed by the Son of Heaven.

Those thieves were so bold that they dared to do it under his nose, and it was still his favorite prince who moved.

It's unforgivable!

Jun Chen knelt on the ground with a plop, looking ashamed: "Your Majesty, this matter is a long story, the minister and the assassins have fought each other, and they were injured by their carelessness, and His Royal Highness was also taken away by them, and when the minister found His Highness, it was late at night, and she was lying dying in the ruined temple outside the city. ”

Emperor Jin An raised his heart highly: "Why is the prince alone in the broken temple? ”

"Your Highness is wise, and after being captured by the Assassins, she did not sit idly by, but tried to deal with the Assassins, and successfully escaped, and when the minister found her, Her Highness was exhausted by the poison."

Junchen's acting skills are not good, but they can't be worse.

The anger in his eyes was clear, not like a fake, and when it came to the fierce place, the green tendons on his forehead would suddenly burst out, panting.

Looking at his performance, Emperor Jin An, who was originally skeptical, immediately believed three more points.

The people of the Jun family have always been straight and can't play with intrigues.

Emperor Jin An was furious and threw the teacup in his hand fiercely, and the minions in the first hall all knelt on their knees: "Check, this matter must be investigated!" Who dares to harm the prince! Summoning the order, let Jing Zhaoyin do his best to investigate, if he can't find out about this matter, I will take off his black yarn hat! ”

The eunuch in charge answered, did not dare to stop for a second, and hurriedly sent someone to pass on His Majesty's message.

At this time, someone came to the prince's dormitory.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been spitting black blood from his mouth for a long time, and I am afraid that it will be dangerous if it continues like this!"
