Chapter 286: Imprisonment in Disguise



After their emotions stabilized, the two rested for a while. When Su Lijin opened her eyes, Xiao Shengxing had left the Queen's Palace and was replaced by Lu Bingqian. He was sitting not far away with herbs in his hand, but no one knew what they were for.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but curl his lips and stood up quietly.

If she wants to leave now, no one can stop her.

Just as Su Lijin was about to put on her shoes, she suddenly noticed the golden chain around her ankle. Her pupils trembled slightly and she was a little bit disbelieving.

Is this what Xiao Shengxing meant by not putting her in danger?

It was indeed done.

But this is also a disguised form of imprisonment. Su Lijin looked at the golden chain and thought of the palace. Although she smiled, there was a coldness in her eyes.

Does Xiao Shengxing want her to be an obedient canary?

Trying to trap her with chains.

Don't even think about it.

Su Lijin tried to struggle, but unexpectedly, the gold chain, which looked not very thick, did not change at all. She laughed out of anger, not knowing whether she should be angry at what Xiao Shengxing did or feel that the craftsman had good skills. If it was used to forge a knife, it would be twice the result with half the effort.

After several unsuccessful attempts.

She gave up the idea of ​​breaking free on her own and turned her gaze to Lu Bingqian next to her.

"Doctor Lu, do you have any way to help me escape?"

Find another way.

But when he heard this, his originally calm expression suddenly changed and he looked terrified.

He quickly bowed and said with a bitter face.

"Your Majesty, please don't embarrass me. I came here today to take your pulse."

It's obvious that he doesn't want to help and is pretending to be embarrassed.

Seeing this, Su Lijin didn't want to embarrass herself and honestly stretched out her hand.

Lu Bingqian felt the pulse under his fingertips, and the mark between his eyebrows became deeper and deeper.

It's not difficult to tell the current situation from the expression.

Su Lijin knew her physical condition, so there were naturally no too many surprises.

In contrast, the imperial physician who was treating him was the more nervous. He withdrew his hand and reminded him, "This poison has already entered its second stage. If Your Majesty doesn't want the condition to worsen faster, you must rest early and stop working hard."

Unexpectedly, that person simply lifted up the quilt and stepped on the ground barefoot.

When Lu Bingqian's eyes fell on the fair skin, he quickly withdrew them, thinking to himself that it was inappropriate to look at her.

Suddenly, there was a rustling sound in my ears.

It’s Su Lijin.

At this moment, she was holding a pen and writing something on a piece of white paper. Her movements were very fast and her expression was as solemn as when he had just examined her.

Not long after, he put down the brush, not even caring about the dirty ink that was spilled.

She placed the white paper in front of Lu Bingqian and raised her chin slightly to remind him to look quickly.

I thought it was not a big deal.

But after reading the first line, Lu Bingqian's expression suddenly became ugly. He quickly scanned the contents of the paper, reading ten lines at a glance.

Although his expression did not change, the knuckles of the two hands holding the white paper turned white.

It revealed its owner's thoughts at the moment.

"Is this all true?"

Su Lijin sighed and then took out another piece of paper.

Absolutely true.

As soon as these four words came out, Lu Bingqian's eyes were complicated and he didn't know what to say.

He even forgot the herbs that he had placed on the table and said he would take them away later. If what Su Lijin wrote was true, it would be a catastrophe.

Before he could fully absorb the sudden bad news, another piece of paper appeared in front of him.

Su Lijin wrote on it: I beg Dr. Lu to consider the overall situation. There are not many days left until the 26th. She cannot be imprisoned in the Queen's Palace. She is needed outside to deal with people.

Then she looked at him with a pair of watery eyes.

What else could Lu Bingqian say? The Queen was doing what benefited the country and its people, for the sake of the nation and its people. After a brief moment of hesitation, he sighed and finally compromised.

He took out the corpse-dissolving water from the medicine box next to him.

A foul odor wafted into my nose.

After drinking the whole bottle of corpse-dissolving water, the gold chain broke and Su Lijin regained her freedom. She put on her shoes with satisfaction and was about to walk out, but was suddenly grabbed.

Before I could react, several bottles and jars were stuffed into my hands.

Lu Bingqian cleared his throat and said solemnly.

"I'm giving you these things. Although they're not very useful, they can be used for self-defense in critical moments. Even if no one is around to remind you, you should make sure to rest. Don't overwork yourself, as this will cause the poison to explode faster."

Holding these things, Su Lijin tried to take a few steps, but as soon as she took a step, the things fell to the ground. She could only look at the person opposite with helplessness.

The latter couldn't help but sigh when he saw this, and then packed them into small packages.

Then he handed the bottle of medicine to Su Lijin and gave her some instructions.

"You must protect yourself."

But the man nodded happily after hearing it, and then left without looking back.

After leaving the palace.

Thinking of what happened last time, he couldn't help but grit his teeth. He had not forgotten about requesting to be replaced, but he had temporarily put it aside because of Xiao Shengxing's questioning and disguised imprisonment.

There must be something wrong with that person.

Su Lijin wanted to try to contact him, but at this moment the pain came again.

Her face suddenly turned pale, and she leaned against a pillar in time to avoid falling to the ground.

Why did the poison attack come on faster than last time?

This time the poison was more than twice as painful as before. When Su Lijin slid to the ground, her whole body looked like she had been fished out of sweat, and her lower lip was bitten until it was bleeding.

final.

She lost all her strength to resist and fainted completely.

When she opened her eyes, the surroundings were eerily quiet. Su Lijin looked around in confusion. She clearly remembered that there was a busy city across the street, which used to be noisy with people.

But now...

She quickly realized that what she had lost was her hearing, and her face looked extremely ugly.

Losing your hearing means that many of your subsequent actions will be inconvenient.

The plan was disrupted by an unexpected change.

Su Lijin sighed heavily, but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Losing her hearing made the surroundings quiet, which made it easier for her to think.

After thinking carefully about those unclear doubts, I found them extremely terrifying.

Especially Lin Siya who suddenly saved someone last time.

Carefully recalling their past, from the moment she was asked to take over as the Mongolian goddess, it was like an elaborate trap that had drawn her deeper and deeper into it, all in the name of change.

Is it related to her that things have developed to this point?

What role does Lin Siya play in this?

Su Lijin's intuition told her that these were directed at her.

but……

After thinking carefully, she let out a heavy sigh, unable to figure out how she had offended Lin Siya. Did this person have a grudge against her?

Su Lijin's current situation is too passive, the enemy is in the open and we are in the dark.

Now I am deaf and dumb, so I can only take one step at a time.

In total silence.

Su Lijin opened the window and looked at the bustling city not far away. Her eyes gradually became blurred as she thought about what Xiao Shengxing had said to her. She believed that it would not be long before she would realize that she had left.

Guilt welled up in my heart.

She closed her eyes and silently repeated Lin Siya's name in her heart. Her identity was extremely important and must be investigated thoroughly.
