Chapter 20: Desperate Survival

"Miss!" Hotaru's eyes widened and she whispered to me in horror.

What a trick to unload the mill and kill the donkey!

Do you want me to die of illness and starvation in the Falling Rain Pavilion, and finally burn a fire to ashes?

Ye Zhao, you are really ruthless!

In that case, I can't help but save my life!

"Although I am considerate of the emperor's good intentions, the emperor will never be so ruthless, because there is one less medicine guide in the prescription I gave to my father-in-law, and this medicine guide is my blood! If I die, not only will the emperor's illness not be cured, but one day he will be replaced by the man on his arm! "Who in this world is not afraid of death? Especially the one who was high up in the Jinluan Palace, even if he knew that I was bluffing him, he would definitely believe it.

Liu Gao snorted coldly, his voice was disdainful, "Hmph, the princess should not waste her efforts, this is when an old slave has never seen the world?" Think the old slave is a three-year-old child? Let you deceiver? ”

"How dare I deceive my father-in-law, I don't have any epidemic at all, it's just that the quack doctor misdiagnosed, I can get any disease, but I can't get the epidemic, because my blood can cure all kinds of poisons! If your father-in-law doesn't believe it, you can take some poison and try it! General Liu Gao stood there suspiciously, his heart seemed to be shaken, and he wanted to strike while the iron was hot, "What is the father-in-law still hesitating about?" If what I say is false, you can nail the doors and windows again, and let me die of sickness and starvation. ”

Horizontal and vertical are dead, it is better to gamble.

I don't know what Liu Gao did outside the house, but after about half a cup of tea, and I heard Liu Gao under my window, with a somewhat respectful but disdainful tone, "This is the venom from the poisonous snake caught by the snake catcher in the city, and I asked the princess to stretch out her hand from the window, the old slave was offended." ”

Reached?

Take me for a fool?

If I stretch out my hand to him to test it, he will not let me out, whether my blood can be detoxified or not! At the lightest, they will imprison me, use my blood as a guide every day, and at worst, take my blood to raise Gu people, kill me and then hurry up! After all, Ye Zhao killed me this time, I am afraid that he didn't want to give Ye Jin a dismount! Because, his heart to kill Ye Jin has already begun to move. And I am the stumbling block to kill him.

It's just that he doesn't know that I am not Ye Jin's sweetheart, and how can I give a life for someone I don't love?

My mother is still waiting for me in Mobei, for him, I can't do it!

"My father-in-law is really forgetful, although I am imprisoned here, but the prince did not say to divorce me, I am still the princess of Qiming! How can you burrow like a cat or a dog? Let them leave the door open. ”

"This ...... Lest it be inappropriate. Liu Gao, a scheming thing, is playing a crooked idea, "It is the prince who is imprisoning the princess here, where can the old slave instruct them at will?" ”

"Yo, father-in-law, isn't it time for you to let them nail the doors and windows just now?"

"Don't make a mistake princess, it's the emperor's idea to nail the doors and windows."

The old guy actually used Ye Zhao to press me?

I don't believe that he can put the emperor's life at risk?

"Since my father-in-law is so stingy, I will stop this so-called blood poison test, you still nail the doors and windows, if the emperor is ill, do you think you can save his life with just those few Chinese herbs? Then my father-in-law will try it. I made a loud noise, which made him think even more.

Who knows, he actually smiled coldly, "The princess doesn't want to tease the old slave, according to the old slave, you just want the old slave to let you out, but the emperor's order is difficult to disobey!" Come on, crucify! ”

My heart chuckled, "Liu Gao, you dare!" I let out a loud shout.

"The old slave doesn't dare, but who dares to disobey the holy decree?"

There was a commotion in the courtyard, and it seemed that someone had entered the courtyard of the Falling Rain Pavilion with a wooden plank, but suddenly heard a loud shout, "Who is spreading wild in this king's palace?!" ”

Ye Jin?

"Someone, open the door!" Listening to the voice, it seemed that a group of soldiers came in and surrounded Liu Gao.

Immediately, my door was opened.

The sunlight outside the house was so dazzling that I couldn't help but cover it with my arms.

Ye Jin was dressed in a black robe, with a bit of heroism in his eyes, but when he looked at me, he was filled with the small joy of reunion after a long absence. In an instant, he was swallowed under the dark eyes.

Perhaps, it wasn't me he wanted to see.

It's just that seeing my eyes that are exactly the same as Lu Shan's touched his heart.

It was like this when it was in the North Underworld, and it was the same just now.

"Lord, this is the emperor's order......" As soon as Liu Gao saw Ye Jin in this posture, his arrogance immediately subsided.

"Your Majesty, this king will explain, but you, without the consent of this king, dispose of the princess, what crime should you be guilty of?" Ye Jin's eyes were like a sharp blade, staring at Liu Gao and kneeling, calling the slave not dare.

"This is Doctor Zhao invited by this king, he has treated the plague in Qingliu Town, and the princess's illness has not yet been diagnosed, how can it be controlled by you, a eunuch?" My eyes flickered, and my gaze fell on the short old man in coarse linen clothes behind Ye Jin.

These days, he actually went to Qingliu Town to find a doctor who can treat me?

Ye Jin made a gesture of please, and Dr. Zhao cleverly stepped forward to check my pulse, and then frowned deeply, "Lord, the princess has been infected with the plague." ”

What?

When the people around heard this, they immediately took a few steps back, and even Liu Gao's face immediately turned pale when he heard it.

"Don't be afraid, don't panic, everyone, the princess has just been infected, and she is not contagious, and the princess has recovered herself! It's so weird! Liu Gao rolled his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart, "Also, this plague broke out before Qingliu Town, and the hiding period is extremely short, and there has been no second person sick for so long, which means that no one else has been infected." The old man prescribes a few medicines and then gives them to the princess, and it will be foolproof. ”

I took his prescription, and it turned out to be exactly the same as the few flavors in Lan Guiren's medicine bag!

Lan Guiren, what kind of hatred do I have with you, you actually risked your life to bring the poison of the plague to harm me invisibly?

"Alright, it's all over." Ye Jin stepped forward and grabbed my wrist.

There was tenderness in his eyes, and I was powerless to resist for a while.

"I haven't slept for the past few days, I'm afraid you can't wait to ...... again" His eyes gradually dimmed, and he didn't say any more, but I knew that he was afraid that I would die eventually, and he didn't wait for his life-saving elixir.

So, the moment he opened the door, he was pleasantly surprised.

Because, I'm still alive.

"Thank you." I could only spit out those two words, and he, with the corners of his mouth raised and seemed to smile, immediately took it back.

"Lord Wangβ€”" A coquettish voice came from the gate.

A figure came in a flash, Ye Jin staggered, let go of my wrist, and his eyes were attracted by the comer.

My arm, frozen in mid-air.

Maybe, Ye Jin's heart really hangs on me, maybe, there really is a place for me, he can go over the mountains and mountains for me, go to the doctor without sleep, or he can be afraid of power for me and go against the emperor, maybe, he will be not afraid of life and death for me, but, in his heart, I am not as good as Lu Shan.

Is this so-called concern really what I want?

"What are you doing these days...... Lu Shan glanced at the courtyard with a soft face, and when her eyes met with me, we were all stunned.
