The medicine building Zhou Huaiyan mentioned was actually called Xian'an Pavilion, a medical place built specifically for him.
"When the princess was pregnant with His Highness, her appearance was not good, so the Duke personally ordered people to build this building, and he also went to the White Horse Temple to invite Master Jian Kong to write the words 'Pian An' on it."
Zhima led the way and introduced the origin of the attic to Ah Fei.
Jiang Min joined the army as a woman. When the late emperor was alive, she followed her brother Jiang Yi to Cangzhou in the south to suppress the rebellion of Prince Jing. Later, she was conferred the title of Princess.
Later, when the new emperor ascended the throne, Jiang Min was summoned into the palace and promoted to Imperial Consort. However, everyone in the Duke's Mansion still respectfully addressed her as Princess.
They shuttled back and forth in the winding corridors, with Ah Fei following behind, listening very attentively.
"Master Jiankong once said that although this place is blessed with good fortune, it lacks water. Therefore, Xin'an Pavilion expanded the lake with human power and built it beside the water to gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth..."
Ah Fei stared into the distance in astonishment——
The extremely majestic red building stands in the center of the lake, towering and majestic, with a red rock pointed roof and layers of flying eaves, so magnificent.
The base of the attic is a square pagoda carved with an eight-petal plum blossom, adding a touch of Zen.
Ah Fei had only heard of the title of "Devil General" of Duke Wei of the Zhou Dynasty, but she had no idea that he actually had such a soft side. It turned out that his master had been loved so deeply since he was born.
The kitten lowered its head, not knowing whether it was envy or something else in its heart.
The medicine boy had been waiting at the door early. When he saw Zhima leading people in, he immediately came forward respectfully.
"I have seen Miss Sesame. Please...please follow me."
He looked at Ah Fei, not knowing how to address her. He could only bow slightly to let her pass by and lead her in.
There were several medical boys and girls in the medicine room. When they saw Ah Fei, they couldn't help but cast curious glances at her.
The Ninth Prince kept a foreign slave and doted on her to the extreme, even going so far as to disobey the Duke of Wei for her. This matter was now known to everyone in the Duke's Mansion, and everyone was very curious about what the foreign slave who had bewitched the Ninth Prince to such an absurd degree looked like.
Ah Fei ignored those looks and just walked quietly with her head down.
The medicine boy led him to the fifth floor.
"Sovoxie, His Highness has ordered us to find out the source of the poison for this person."
The brown-haired man bent down slightly and saw Ah Fei standing beside the medicine boy. His gaze stayed on his curly long hair and heterochromatic eyes, and a hint of contempt flashed across his eyes.
Ah Fei frowned. The man in front of her was a foreigner with extremely pure blood. He was tall and muscular. His overly lush hair made him look a bit wild, which was in stark contrast to the smile on his face.
Perhaps because she had too many unpleasant memories among foreign races, Ah Fei felt an inexplicable disgust when she saw this man for the first time.
Ah Fei was the one who poisoned the woman herself, so she naturally knew how to cure it. However, she couldn't let her master know about this, so she had to go through the formalities to save face.
He took out the blueprint he had drawn earlier and handed it to the man. The man took it and looked at it for a moment.
"Hmm, it seems to be riverweed."
Sovoxie turned to look at him, with a friendly smile on his face.
"Why, did your previous owner poison you to death because you screamed too loudly in bed?"
"......"
Ah Fei's eyes turned cold. The other person was speaking a foreign language, and only the two of them could understand it in this room.
The servants of the foreign races were of low status, and were merely tools for their masters to play with and satisfy their lust. So it was common for them to be insulted by such words. It was just as natural as whipping cattle and horses, or slaughtering pigs and sheep.
Ah Fei had heard even more foul and vicious words in the past, but he never changed his expression. But perhaps because he had been treated so gently by his master in the past few days, he almost forgot how lowly his identity was, and now he couldn't stand even a single dirty word.
Ah Fei clenched his fists again and again, and his heart seemed to be blocked by a ball of damp and cold cotton, which made it almost impossible to breathe. He closed his eyes and planned to leave. However, the next second, Suovo Xie suddenly grabbed his forearm.
"Since it is your highness's order, I will not be careless and will have to check it carefully."
[Your Highness's Order]
Afei stopped trying to break away. The man smiled and looked at the medicine boy guarding the door.
"Please prepare a bright enough glass lamp so that I can examine it carefully."
The medicine boy didn't suspect anything else, nodded and went to look for the lamp.
Bang!
Instantly, Ah Fei was pressed against the wall by the man. His rough fingers tightly gripped his jaw, while the other hand was strangling his throat.
"Woo..."
The kitten groaned in pain.
Such a painful and twisted posture made those beautiful jade-colored eyes shed some physiological tears. It was so beautiful that Sovoxie was amazed.
"Although you are a little thin, your eyes are pretty. Slave, do you think you can hide your dirty blood by washing off the ink behind your ear?"
“......!”
Ah Fei's pupils suddenly widened.
"We, the warriors of a foreign race, will only die in battle and will never submit to the Zhou people. Only a born scumbag like you will shake your ass and beg for sex!"
The man sneered.
"Tell me, how did you get here, and how did you hook up with Zhou Huaiyan?"
"......"
Ah Fei clenched her teeth and didn't answer.
"Oh, I forgot, you were poisoned and made mute by your previous owner."
The smile on the man's face became softer, but the strength in his hands increased, as if he wanted Ah Fei to open her mouth.
"If you can't explain it, then show me how to do it. After all, the man poisoned you and didn't cut off your tongue. Doesn't that mean you, a slave, are good at licking?"
“.......”
Not sure if it was out of fear or humiliation, Ah Fei couldn't help shaking. He was held in the man's hand like a young bird caught by a hunter and with its wings broken.
Fortunately, at this time, the medicine boy came with a lamp. He looked at the two people's strange postures with a doubtful look on his face, but Sovoxie did not stop. He turned around and looked distressed.
"Your Highness ordered me to check the source of the poison, maybe to see if there are traces of poison in the throat, but this... doesn't seem to be cooperating."
The medicine boy came over holding a lamp, frowned when he heard this,
"Your Highness's order, please don't make things difficult for us."
"......"
Ah Fei's breath was choked.
He looked at the smiling man in front of him, and finally closed his eyes. Then he slowly loosened his teeth.
The bright glass lamp reflected Ah Fei's face, which was horribly pale. Her thick black eyelashes trembled slightly, and there seemed to be a flash of light in between. Seeing this, Suovo heaved a sigh of relief, and his tone was extremely friendly.
"Please open your eyes a little wider, so I can see the poisonous traces left in your throat."
“.......”
Ah Fei clenched her fist tightly, and a little blood oozed out from between her fingers. Then, her lips, which had been bitten to a glaring red, trembled and opened.
"I heard that Zhou Huaiyan asked you to stay in his room every night these days. How is it? Do you enjoy being fucked by that sick guy?"
Sovoxie pinched his jaw and inserted his blunt fingers into Ah Fei's mouth in an extremely blasphemous and insulting manner.
"Oh, I forgot, his broken body may not be able to move you, haha, Jiang Yi finally got his retribution, he killed countless heroes and warriors of my tribe, but the people he loved most died at the hands of the Zhou people,"
"His two sons died in Jiangnan, his sister died in the palace, and Zhou Huaiyan was his final retribution. Even if he spent all his money to build this building, that sickly person would not live for a few more years..."
Click——
Suddenly, a short, hair-raising sound of bone-cracking was heard in the room.
It was like a beast tearing its prey apart, chewing the bones effortlessly.
The man suddenly let out a hysterical scream.
"ah--"
He retreated suddenly and fell to the ground. The horrible pain he felt made Sovoxie roll and convulse on the ground.
"My...hand...slave! Slave! How dare you..."
Snap——
The glass lamp in the medicine boy's hand fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. He looked at the fragments and bloodstains all over the ground, his face turned pale.
Ah Fei frowned, as if she couldn't hear the man's shrill scream. She just turned her head away and said something casually.
The medicine boy trembled and looked down, only to see the bloody mass rolling all the way to him.
——It’s a severed finger.
A severed finger that was bitten off alive and is still twitching.
"This... this..."
He widened his eyes and looked at the half-blooded foreign boy, with a horrified expression on his face as if he had seen some man-eating evil ghost, and he almost crawled out.
Ah Fei ignored the panicked medicine boy and just wiped the blood from the corner of her lips. The glaring blood spread, staining half of her face blood red.
His slightly curly hair was spread out in disarray, covering his eyebrows and eyes, casting fine and dark shadows, and his eyes were terrifyingly gloomy.
The foreign boy, half covered in blood, took the stick he was using to beat the drugs and walked towards the man who was convulsing and screaming. He grabbed Sovoxie's jaw just like he had done before.
"Sheet......"
【Open your mouth.】
Ah Fei expressionlessly pried open the man's mouth with a wooden stick. The broken pieces of colored glass scattered all over the floor reflected the candlelight, casting mottled shadows on his face.
At this moment, the horrible bloodstains seemed to come alive, growing on the side of the foreign boy's face like cold and sharp red thorns.
“Ahhh, ahhhh…!!!”
Sovoxie's expression gradually changed from pain to fear. He struggled desperately, but the strength that he had always been proud of was completely useless in front of the skinny servant in front of him.
The man struggled desperately, like a fish stranded and dying. The thick wooden stick was thrust roughly into his mouth, and soon his mouth and throat were bleeding.
After a moment, Ah Fei pulled out the stick and looked at her fellow tribesmen, who were dying like dead fish. Her pale blue eyes were terribly cold.
"say......"
【Zhou Huaiyan,】
【May you live a long life.】
He recited silently.
【Year after year, Chang'an...】
