Chapter 120: Oath of Loyalty



Zong Zheng Xiaoting's words surprised Chen Xianzhi a little, or maybe he didn't know the person in front of him well enough. He was used to her planning and her calmness, and even more used to her giving orders from a high position and her indifference to honor or disgrace. Such straightforward words, blurted out like that, made Chen Xianzhi a little overwhelmed.

Chen Xianzhi's expression made Zong Zheng Xiaoting laugh secretly, "Is it incredible that I would ask such a question?"

"I dare not. I am terrified." Chen Xianzhi said with his head lowered.

"Alright, there's no need to talk about all these fears and fears. I just want an answer from you, Doctor Chen." Zong Zheng Xiaoting waved his hands impatiently.

Sure enough, the struggling and contradictory expression appeared on Chen Xianzhi's face again.

Qingqing, who had long known the importance of Doctor Chen's loyalty to Zongzheng Xiaoting, also interrupted at the right time, "Oh, Princess, don't dither and beat around the bush. This matter involves lives and has far-reaching implications. Princess, you can't be so secretive!"

With Qingqing cooperating with Zongzheng Xiaoting, they soon achieved the result that Zongzheng Xiaoting wanted. Chen Zhizhi showed anxiety in his eyes and asked hurriedly, "Chen Zhizhi has been too much to the princess, and I know that many things have disappointed the princess, but please believe that the selfishness is only because the princess is safe and sound and will not suffer too much damage. Even if the poison was used, it was intentional. The poison I used was not so cruel and vicious as to endanger the princess' life."

This was the first time that Chen Xianzhi spoke frankly about his inner thoughts, and because of his honesty this time, Zong Zheng Xiaoting decided to open his heart and accept his confidence.

"What do you mean? Didn't the princess's poison only take time to heal? Wasn't it just a little troublesome? Why doesn't it look like what you, the imperial physician, said?" Even though you already knew that there was indeed no cure, Qingqing, you still couldn't hide your excitement. Although there was an element of deliberate expression, it mostly came from your heart. That's why this scene looked so real.

"How can this be? What can we do with the princess's poison?" As Qingqing spoke, her voice became nasal.

With Qingqing's behavior, Chen Xianzhi's heart naturally went through a period of torment, but nothing could shock him more than what Zong Zheng Xiaoting said next.

"Forget it. I guessed it from the beginning. Many things, even if they are accidents, can be said to be destined. Life or death is never what I worry about. I only worry about whether what I care about and pursue can be realized in my lifetime. That's all."

Guessed it long ago?!

How is that possible!

Chen Xianzhi's heart at this moment, the word "shock and turmoil" may not be enough to describe his feelings at the moment. From the beginning, the princess never cared about her own life or death. It was also because of this that all the threats were not enough to shake her. She could have comforted herself by saying that the princess still cared about the antidote to some extent.

But what about now? Seeing the princess so calm, and thinking about the questions she asked him, in fact, from the beginning to now, the princess's heart was as clear as a mirror. She knew clearly that he had calculated on her, that he was not completely sure of preparing the antidote, and that he was so selfish. However, he fulfilled his wish for something she cared about and pretended not to know.

If you think about it carefully, the princess knew clearly from the beginning that she didn't need him to be by her side to do anything, but why did the princess still bring him along?

Yes, I still did it! If you put yourself in her shoes, why would you do this if you were a princess?

Chen Xianzhi had a complicated expression on his face, thinking to himself, if he were Zong Zheng Xiaoting, why would he do this? He knew very well that the princess fulfilled his wish because she had her own pursuits and grasp of things, but even without him, Chen Xianzhi, the princess still had her own ability to escape the marriage.

Therefore, in the final analysis, it is for her own fulfillment and to give herself an explanation in front of the person she loves. And just now she also clearly knew that he came back to find her. In fact, think about it, the princess has also considered what the purpose of keeping her by her side will be if she fails?

Yes, it is completely useless, so the princess chose to keep herself by her side, in order that in case of failure, she can communicate with the person she loves in time, and also to increase the chance of meeting each other!

After understanding Zong Zheng Xiaoting's intention, Chen Xianzhi was overwhelmed with guilt and self-blame, and he constantly blamed and criticized himself in his heart.

Knowing very well the inner struggle of Chen Xianzhi at the moment, Zong Zheng Xiaoting was not in a hurry. He waited quietly for Chen Xianzhi to come back to his senses without rushing him.

"My Lord Chen understands. If the princess didn't have any difficulties, she wouldn't have continued to provoke me. What I just said would endanger the lives of the princess and her clansmen. It must be a serious matter, and it is not convenient for the princess to disclose it." My Lord Chen looked at Zong Zheng Xiaoting with an inquiring look.

When Zong Zheng Xiaoting heard him call himself by his name, he already knew the direction of his choice. A slight smile appeared on his face as he nodded towards Chen the Prophet. "It is indeed a matter of great importance. The fewer people who know, the less danger there is. However, there are indeed things that I am unable to do. I can only say that from this moment on, every decision is related to every life, so I have to use this matter to ask you, Doctor Chen, for a favor."

Zong Zheng Xiaoting bluntly stated her intentions, "Now, I can only tell you this much. Whether the answer is yes or no, I will not force you. But this time, the matter is of great importance, and I have to remind you. If your answer is that you are willing to help me, then I want you to be absolutely loyal to me. If you are indecisive, I will rather let the world down than let the world down. You must think clearly."

Zong Zheng Xiaoting spoke seriously, and his eyes revealed an unquestionable and resolute aura.

"From this moment on, I, the Prophet Chen, will follow the princess' lead and swear only on the lives of myself, my people, and those I care about!"

As a modern person, Zong Zheng Xiaoting knew very well that the so-called oath would never come true, but in their eyes, such an oath would indeed be a great constraint. Chen Xianzhi's determination and loyalty were beyond doubt.

Then at this moment, a large number of masked killers in black suddenly rushed towards their location.
