"You guys guard it well, don't let even a fly in, especially this big fly that keeps buzzing." After saying that, the chief guard looked at Jing Kai proudly.
Jing Kai glanced at the chief guard calmly, pulled out a gold medal from his waist, waved it in front of them, and said, "Seeing this gold medal is like seeing the late emperor. Why don't you kneel down quickly?"
The chief guard widened his eyes and looked at the badge in Jing Kai's hand in disbelief. He wanted to reach out and take it to confirm whether the badge was real.
But Jing Kai retracted his hand and held the badge in his own hand.
Jing Kai's followers shouted at the chief guard, "How dare you disrespect the late king? I bet you'll lose your head!"
The head guard's legs went weak, and he hurriedly knelt down in front of Jing Kai, saying angrily, "I deserve death. I didn't mean to offend you."
"Get out of the way with your dogs!" Jing Kai said.
He had just mocked Jing Kai as a fly, but now Jing Kai called him a dog.
But he didn't dare to say a word, so he could only let his men retreat and watch Jing Kai and his men walk in swaggeringly.
Jing Kai's followers walked past the chief guard calmly, and did not forget to snort at him in protest.
The chief guard's eyes darkened, and he glared at the backs of Jing Kai's followers and said, "You little bastards who are relying on the power of others!"
Jing Kai let everyone pass with the badge and soon arrived at Xie Xiuer's bedroom.
Only then did they discover that Xie Xiuer's bedroom had been surrounded by guards from the Baiyue Kingdom, and no one was allowed to enter.
But the badge in Jing Kai's hand was more useful than anything else. Although the guards were reluctant, they still respectfully welcomed him in.
Ruan Qing heard some noise outside and thought that the king of Baiyue had returned, so he immediately looked towards the door vigilantly.
When the person came closer, she saw that it was Jing Kai and she felt relieved but also worried.
"Kai'er, how did you get in?" Ruan Qing asked.
"I came in using the badge my father gave me." Jing Kai showed the badge to Ruan Qing.
Ruan Qing recognized the badge, which was bestowed by the previous king. Seeing the badge was like seeing the king himself. No one was allowed to stop him, not even the current king!
Ruan Qing breathed a sigh of relief. With this badge, Jing Kai was at least safe.
"Aunt, what is going on? Why did the king suddenly imprison you and the princess here?" Jing Kai asked.
Ruan Qing forced a bitter smile on his face, his eyes filled with resentment.
She said to Jing Kai: "Because some people in the harem can no longer hold back and want to take my place.
He came to ask me to hand over the Phoenix Seal, and threatened that if I didn't do so, he wouldn't allow the imperial physician to treat Yun Qiao!"
Yun Qiao is her child with that man, but that man is so heartless that he even ignores his own daughter.
"There is chaos in Jiuzhou Kingdom right now, and it is impossible to take care of Baiyue. As the queen who is marrying into a foreign alliance, I naturally don't have to be cautious." Ruan Qing has always known that the strength of Jiuzhou Kingdom is her greatest support.
But she never expected that there would be unrest in the Jiuzhou Kingdom at this time. Now people are in panic everywhere, and the king of Baiyue Kingdom has become unscrupulous.
"I don't even care about my reputation anymore. I just want him to help me find someone to cure Yun Qiao's illness." Ruan Qing paused, a hint of hatred flashing in her eyes. She would not shed another tear for that man. "As long as he can agree to this request, I will give him the Phoenix Seal..."
But he was unwilling to agree to even this request and trapped her here. He must have wanted to search her bedroom directly for the Phoenix Seal.
But he would never have thought that she would hide the Phoenix Seal in such a place!
"Aunt, don't worry. I've found a way to save my cousin," Jing Kai said, glancing coldly at Xie Xiu'er lying on the bed. If it weren't for her, there wouldn't be so many problems. For now, she'll be spared. Once things get clear, she'll definitely not end up well. "I've already brought the person in."
Ruan Qing was obviously stunned for a moment. It had been a while since she heard Jing Kai call Xie Xiuer "cousin".
Jing Kai now only calls Xie Xiuer Princess. Every time he calls her that, Xie Xiuer gets angry, but he says that there are differences in status and that there should be distinctions between high and low. Even Xie Xiuer can't do anything about him.
But what Ruan Qing didn't know was that the cousin Jing Kai was talking about was not Xie Xiu'er who was lying unconscious on the bed, but Xie Yunjiao who was trapped.
"Come in." Jing Kai said.
Ruan Qing was delighted, thinking that Xie Yunjiao had found it, and looked towards the door with anticipation.
Suddenly, a woman in wizard costume walked in with many strange tools in her hands.
Ruan Qing couldn't help but frown when she saw the old woman, a hint of disappointment flashed across her eyes: "Kai'er, can she really save Yun Qiao?"
"Aunt, there is no other way now. Let's just give it a try." Jing Kai said.
Although Ruan Qing had doubts in his heart, there was nothing he could do.
"Then give it a try."
There is no other way, so we can only try our best.
The old woman bowed to Ruan Qing and began to perform the ritual.
She first took a mouthful of something and sprayed it towards Xie Xiu'er who was lying on the bed. When Ruan Qing saw what it was, Xie Xiu'er's face, body and all over the bed were sprayed with bloodstains, which looked horrifying.
Ruan Qing frowned, moved his lips, and wanted to say something but in the end said nothing.
It's already like this, there's no point in saying more.
"What are you doing!" Lian'er suddenly screamed.
Because she saw the old woman actually took out a strange bone, one side of which was still in the shape of a bone, but the other side had been sharpened to be as sharp as a needle.
She took the bone and came to Xie Xiuer, pulled out Xie Xiuer's hand and was about to stab her finger.
Lian'er stepped forward to stop him.
"Lian'er, don't be so rude, move aside." Ruan Qing said.
"Your Majesty, she wants to use that thing to stab the princess. The princess is a precious girl and her body is delicate. How can she be treated like this?" Lian'er said with tears in her eyes.
Ruan Qing felt heartbroken, and as Yun Qiao's biological mother, she felt even worse.
But in order to make Yun Qiao get better, she gave it her all.
"Don't be afraid, everyone. I'm only taking a drop of the princess's blood. I won't hurt her at all."
The old woman pricked Xie Xiuer's finger, squeezed out a drop of blood and dripped it on the chest of a straw doll.
Suddenly, the straw doll with talismans painted all over its body flashed a red light and shook for a moment before it became motionless.
Ruan Qing and the others were stunned. It was just a drop of blood. The straw doll was a dead object, but it actually moved and even emitted light. How could they not be shocked!
