Even though there is only a vague outline and it is even afraid of light, it is much better than before when I could not see anything.
But how could Lin Jiuxi, a woman from a secluded place, have such superb medical skills? This was something he couldn't understand or figure out.
"The prince originally promised that he would help me unlock the exquisite box if my eyes were healed," Lin Jiuxi smiled slightly, looking particularly cunning, "Is it time to fulfill your promise now?"
After hearing what she said, Nangong Jing finally remembered who her mother was. He still hadn't found out. So why was it surprising that such a mysterious woman had such a capable daughter?
Looking at Lin Jiuxi's vague appearance, he couldn't help laughing and could only nod. Maybe it was because he had been blind for so long, even though he could see clearly, he couldn't help squinting his eyes and listening carefully. Lin Jiuxi's chuckle or pacing made him slightly distracted.
The exquisite box was not hidden very deep, so the man could take it out with about half his arm's length.
However, Nangong Jing held the box in his hand and looked at it for a long time before he realized that the so-called Nine Skills were not just names. The so-called Nine Skills each had its own secret. Now looking at it this way, it might take nine of them to unlock it.
Lin Jiuxi looked into his eyes, feeling somewhat guilty. He gently stroked his nails with his fingertips, then coughed softly: "Originally I said I wanted to cure the prince's eyes, but now I have asked the prince to become my reagent. I am really ashamed."

Nangong Jing originally just smiled faintly and shook his head. In his blurred vision, the edge of the girl's clothes fluttered, as if it could not be wiped off at all.
Lin Jiuxi understood and just nodded slightly. His eyes fell on the exquisite box in Nangong Jing's hand. He pinched his fingertips with regret: "In this case, let's find another opportunity."
"In that case, let's choose a day to look for him." Nangong Jing just raised his eyebrows slightly. He could still barely see Lin Jiuxi in the dark, but once he was in the light, he was like a blind man with open eyes, no different from before.
Lin Jiuxi's face changed. The incident happened suddenly. She was just a doctor and had more things that could save lives than things that could harm people. If she rushed forward rashly at this moment, not to mention whether she could save Nangong Jing, it would be a good thing that she was not threatened by the assassin.
"Do you know where this is?" Nangong Jing's face was not looking good. These past few days, some people outside had suspected him and looked at him strangely. There were naturally some rumors, but he had never revealed them to outsiders. Yet, today, someone wanted to kill him, which showed that person had ulterior motives.
The assassin obviously noticed her, but had no intention of continuing to pester her. He took advantage of Nangong Jing's blindness and made every strike of his sword deadly. If Nangong Jing had not practiced martial arts in her early years, she would have died on the spot.
Linglong people have Linglong faces, and this thing can probably only be opened by someone from Linglong Pavilion.
It would be fine if it was just Nangong Jing alone, but even more difficult to deal with are the group of guards kept in the palace. If they continue to fight, those guards will get wind of it and it will be difficult for them to escape unscathed.
It is really despicable that a dignified emperor is learning to use tricks like those concubines.
Nangong Jing just slightly curved his eyes upon hearing that, and his eyes, which could barely reveal an expression, were filled with tiny bits of smiles, as if he was extremely pleased with Lin Jiuxi's self-reproach, and even the corners of his lips couldn't help but rise, but in the end he still didn't say a word of "it's okay".
"Linglong must have a close relationship with my mother. Since she was willing to give me such a gift, she must have expected that I would go to her again." Lin Jiuxi said as he shook his head helplessly, with an indescribable confusion between his brows.
"Your Highness, please remember not to get angry. Just stay calm." Lin Jiuxi saw that he had fallen silent again at this moment. She pulled the corners of her lips slightly, and then coughed. She still had to think of a way to make the potion, but the effect of that dragon blood grass was too weak, which was really doubtful.
The assassin obviously realized that something was wrong and his attacks became more and more ruthless. Nangong Jing could not see at all, but after a while he began to retreat step by step. Just as he saw that the sword was about to pierce his heart and abdomen, Lin Jiuxi suddenly flew forward and pounced on him.
"It's because I know that that I won't fail." The assassin's tone was extremely calm, as if he knew that he would never come back. He swung the sword in his hand with great force, which made people tremble with fear.
All this happened after a sharp sword pierced through the window. If Nangong Jing had not dodged quickly, the sword would have chopped off his arm and made him a real cripple.
"The saying that there is a secret hidden within the secret pavilion is really true." Nangong Jing sighed softly, stroking the patterns on the Nine-in-One Secret Box with his fingertips. In the end, he still couldn't find the way out. He smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I'm afraid I can't open this Secret Box today. The nine layers of seal outside cannot be opened by password alone."
Linglong really played a good hand. If she really had a relationship with her mother, it was hard to tell whether it was right or wrong or grudges.
But Linglong came and went without a trace, and she didn’t know when she would be able to find her again.
Lin Jiuxi lowered his eyes, not caring whether the things at hand were valuable or not, he opened the window and smashed them out. The breaking sound in the night was particularly harsh, attracting attention from outside from time to time, and shouts were endless.
The saying "white knife in, red knife out" is no joke. Lin Jiuxi was really grimacing in pain and let out a light hiss. He didn't need to look closely to know that the wounds on his abdomen and back must be hideous and scary.
No one had expected this to happen. Although the assassin was unwilling, he knew that today's assassination would probably be fruitless. If he stayed any longer, not only would the assassination fail, but he would also have to lose his life. That was really not worth it.
Seeing the assassin flying away, Nangong Jing didn't care at all. He covered Lin Jiuxi's wound but didn't dare to use force. He just covered it loosely. For a moment, he seemed to lose his voice. He opened his mouth but trembled and couldn't say a word.
"Your Highness... If you don't call a doctor, Jiuxi will probably die." Lin Jiuxi grabbed Nangong Jing's sleeve and felt a fishy and sweet taste in her throat, which she had to swallow back.
The pain in his back was too obvious. Lin Jiuxi couldn't bear it anymore and passed out with his eyes closed.
