Chapter Thirty-Six: A Raccoon Dog

"Oh? Are you saying that my clever and unparalleled prince brother is now a half-dead waste lying in bed? Hahahaha, if my father knew that his most precious crown prince was planted in the hands of a woman, would he be particularly disappointed? The man laughed insolently, "Brother Prince, I don't know what it's like to be stabbed by the woman you love?" Hiss....... It must have hurt. ”

His strange tone was like a femme fatale, and the masked man's scalp tingled when he heard it.

"You said that my prince brother hasn't completely lost his breath, right? Then you can find a time to give him one last ride. ”

"Yes, Your Highness, my subordinates will do it." He received the order and fled quickly.

"Brother Prince, you can go in peace. In this world, Brother Wang will take it back for you, hahahaha. ”

At midnight, a figure flew down from the eaves and sneaked into Bai Yucheng's tent.

Bai Yucheng, who was lying in front of the bed, closed his eyes tightly, and his lips were faintly blue, looking terminally ill.

The assassin drew his sword and whispered, "I'm sorry, Your Highness the Prince. ”

As he raised his knife and slashed downward, one hand grabbed the assassin's wrist with a strong hand, and the originally weak boy on the bed collapsed with a slight smile and sat up. He was the one who blocked the sword.

"How is this possible, I obviously saw Ji Lianmei stab you with a knife, how could you be unharmed." The assassin was surprised.

"Naturally, it's because you're stupid." Ji Lianmei appeared with Situ Che from behind the screen on the side.

The black-armored guards guarding the door immediately broke down the door and surrounded the assassin in unison, countless swords pointing at him, leaving him with nowhere to escape.

"Ji Lianmei? Aren't you in prison by Situ Che? How did you end up here. ”

"I'm just coming to see who the brother who drank with me that day is." Ji Lianmei stepped forward and said with a smile.

"What the hell is going on!"

On the night of the wedding, Ji Lianmei sat in front of Yucheng's bed, looked around, and after making sure that there was no one, she let go of Bai Yucheng's hand, and her face returned to flatness.

"Alright, don't pretend." Ji Lianmei picked up the knife and stabbed it hard into the palm of her hand. However, the knife did not pierce the palm of the hand as expected, but shrank even shorter.

"Look, this is a telescopic knife, and besides, it hasn't been cut before."

Bai Yucheng slowly opened his eyes, slowly wiped away the blood gushing out of his heart, took out a punctured blood bag from his chest, and threw it aside.

"Aren't you going to do it to me?"

"Kill you, who do I go to? And that man obviously wants to get rid of you by my hand, so how can he take what he promised? I'm not stupid enough to do this kind of detrimental behavior. Although I am hostile to you, at this time, I don't think I mind letting go of my previous preconceptions for a while. Just like in the mall, there are no eternal friends and enemies, you want to lure out the mastermind through me, I want to survive on you,"

"Why didn't you see before, you are such a cunning little fox." Bai Yucheng smiled.

"I didn't see it before, you're not just a liar, you're a complete dramatist. I almost thought I had the wrong knife. ”

"Since you want to cooperate with me, give me the things." Bai Yucheng spread out his palms and looked at Ji Lianmei.

"How would you know." Ji Lianmei reluctantly took out the gold medal from her sleeve.

I still want to keep this thing, so I can use it in case of emergency in the future, does this guy even know everything about this kind of trivial matter?

What a horrible guy.

"I can tell you everything, and I can work with you. From now on, though.... You owe me three wishes. ”

Bai Yucheng smiled: "Now, what qualifications do you have to make conditions with me?" It's just three wishes, and I promise you. ”

"Okay, I'm not afraid that you'll pay the bills, but for the sake of safety, you have to make a contract with me."

"Contract? What is it? ”

"That's it..... The contract, you have to sign your name and put your handprint on it, as a proof that you will not be untrustworthy. ”

Ji Lianmei took out a piece of bamboo, wrote down a few strokes, handed the bamboo note to Bai Yucheng, and said, "After this matter is over, I will tell you my wish in person, and you had better not regret it." ”

After Ji Lianmei said this, she turned around and left Bai Yucheng's military tent.

Situ Che followed her inside, he glanced at Ji Lianmei who walked away, and then looked at Bai Yucheng who was leaning on the bed rail and smiling, and couldn't help but be curious.

"Your Highness, Ji Lianmei, is she trustworthy?"

"Don't worry, she won't do it."

"Why is Your Highness so sure?"

Bai Yucheng smiled, patted Situ Che's shoulder, and said, "She didn't do anything when I was most lax in my defense, it can be seen that in her heart, emotions are still holding her back, so all she has for me is hatred." Moreover, she seems to be a lot smarter and more cunning than I imagined, she will not be stupid enough to be caught by the people and given to the court voluntarily, once she falls into the hands of the court of Wu, she will definitely die. Previously, Emperor Wu's birthday banquet invited envoys from all countries, if she went to another country, and others knew her identity as the princess of Liu Guo, she would still be arrested and killed. Although the state of Wu has fallen, its momentum should not be underestimated, and those small countries around it will never take such a risk to let her live in peace. That's why this time, she will stand on my side and offer me affection. Oh, I don't think I need to send guards to spy on her in the future. ”

Of course, if Ji Lianmei really killed him, he would have been ready for it. Situ Che and the guards, blood bags and heart goggles outside the door are not only guarding against people with ears on the wall, but also against Ji Lianmei. If Ji Lianmei really did it, even if he wouldn't kill Ji Lianmei, he wouldn't put her by his side with peace of mind.

Such a meticulous mind is beyond the comprehension of any other person.

"Situ, bring this person back and interrogate him strictly." Bai Yucheng ordered.

"Yes, come on, take it away."

Two guards stepped forward and grabbed the Assassin's arm, intending to pick him up and take him away. The assassin suddenly foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground in convulsions.

Seeing this, Situ Che put his hand on his neck artery, frowned slightly, and shook his head at Bai Yucheng.

Bai Yucheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said coldly: "Take the corpse down and take a closer look." ”

After the assassin was taken away by the guards, Bai Yucheng suddenly and slowly slipped to the ground, his face was pale, and his whole body froze and could not move.

"Bai Yucheng, what's wrong with you?" Ji Lianmei grabbed the corner of his clothes and half-knelt to support him.

Seeing this, Situ Che hurriedly took out a pill from the small bag he was carrying and fed it to Bai Yucheng.

"It's ......"

"That person gave His Highness the medicine to suppress his illness before, and His Highness reluctantly made some of it with his own ability. Whenever His Highness uses internal force, ALS will attack, and without this medicine, it is very likely to make the condition worse. However, this medicine also has great side effects, and after taking it, you will fall asleep for at least 12 hours. Situ Che explained, carrying Bai Yucheng to the bed on the side.

After taking the medicine, Bai Yucheng fell asleep all the time.

Ji Lianmei stayed by his side, and suddenly remembered that on the day Ji Jingchen was killed, Bai Yucheng's body didn't seem to be abnormal. Ji Jingchen did not have any external injuries on his body, but was killed with a knife. His martial arts are far above Bai Yucheng, and it is impossible for Bai Yucheng to stab him to death without using his internal strength. Even if he had a guard, it would be impossible to catch Ji Jingchen without leaving a single scar on him. Besides, if Bai Yucheng wanted to kill him, there was a chance, so why bother so much. (Of course, the possibility of his psychopathology cannot be ruled out.) )

Thinking about it like this, Ji Jingchen's death is very strange.

For a moment, a thought flashed through Ji Lianmei's mind, the person was not killed by Bai Yucheng at all. But if he didn't kill him, why would he admit it? Moreover, we have to pretend to be the grooms who accompany us.....

If he really didn't kill people, am I, I will let go of the grudge against him in my heart....

Bai Yucheng snorted and slowly opened his eyes, it was already the night of the second day.

He looked around, only to see Ji Lianmei kneeling at the head of his bed and thinking about something seriously, and he didn't even notice when he woke up.

He snickered and looked at her.

It would be nice to be able to watch her so quietly all the time.

Ji Lianmei's attention gradually drifted back to reality from her mind, and she couldn't help but be startled when she met the deep eyes that were as tender as water.

"Are you awake?"

"Hmm."

"Bai Yucheng, I have a question I want to ask you, but I only ask you once, you must answer me honestly." Ji Lianmei looked at Bai Yucheng and said earnestly.

"What?"

"Ji Jingchen, did you really kill him?"

The smile on Bai Yucheng's lips gradually disappeared, and his eyes drifted away.

"You're not....... Have you seen it all? I killed people. ”

"Now, I don't believe that's the truth."

Bai Yucheng sat up with all his might, and put his hands on Ji Lianmei's shoulders. He said word by word: "Ji Lianmei, listen up, it's me who killed Ji Jingchen." Because he's too much of an eyesore...... What he likes is something I've wanted all my life, it's unique in the world, and I just want her to belong to me. ”

"What you said, is it true?" Ji Lianmei didn't understand what Bai Yucheng was talking about, but she knew that the reason why Bai Yucheng killed Ji Jingchen was only because he didn't want what belonged to him to be touched by others.

Is it Jiangshan.......

"If you don't believe me, then I have nothing to say."

"Hehe, Bai Yucheng, I still have a fantasy in my heart, but it turns out to be a fantasy."

Ji Lianmei bit her lip, pushed away Bai Yucheng's hand on her shoulder, and stood up with her back to him.

"Now that the matter is settled and the people have been caught, it's time to fulfill your promise."

"You say."

"First, I voluntarily entered your palace as a slave and helped you do the work, so I should be handed over to you as a protection fee. However, I hope that we can maintain a normal master-servant relationship, and we cannot go beyond half of it; Second, I want you to let go of Ji Jingchen's sister, Ji Ningyu, so that she can live safely and no longer take advantage of me and anyone around me. ”

"Okay, I promise you, what about the third?"

"Third...... I haven't thought about it yet, but if I think about it in the future, you still have to fulfill your promise. ”

Ji Lianmei said as she spoke, and suddenly turned around: "Bai Yucheng, it is like a deceitful drama between us, a mutually beneficial and win-win transaction, but the love I imagined is not like this." You're the only man I've ever liked, but time has passed, and now there's no going back to the peace between us. ”

"Ji Lianmei, you have always asked me, and now, I also have doubts and need your answers."

"You say."

"What do you want if you don't attack me?"
