Chapter 58 The Bloodthirsty and Hateful Regent 7



When Qingci saw Jiang Zhili enter the room, she quickly called out, "Come quickly, Xiaoli! This chicken soup is delicious!"

Jiang Zhili walked to the table, looked at the food box, and asked, "Isn't this the food box that the girl brought to the prince just now?"

Qingci picked up the bowl on the table and poured a bowl of chicken soup for Jiang Zhili. He said nonchalantly, "The prince won't drink this chicken soup at all. Instead of throwing it away, it's better for us to drink it."

Jiang Zhili took the chicken soup handed to her by Qingci. She took a sip and found the chicken soup very fragrant.

"Drink it quickly, you can eat chicken after drinking it," Qingci said with his mouth full of oil.

Drinking chicken soup and eating chicken.

Jiang Zhili asked Qingci, "The prince's illness seems to be very serious?"

She felt she could start with this symptom.

"Hey, stop talking. Once the prince's illness flares up, his skin will peel off and he won't be able to close his eyes for days. It's all because of the Princess Xiyan. She's really a disaster!" Qingci's face was full of anger.

Jiang Zhili: "..."

After the two of them finished all the chicken soup, Qingci wiped his mouth and returned to his room.

Jiang Zhili fetched some water, washed up, and then lay down on the bed.

She asked Duoduo to open the mall and started looking around inside. There were so many things in the mall that her eyes were almost numb, but she still couldn't find what she wanted.

Duoduo was really curious: {Host, what are you looking for?}

Jiang Zhili thought for a moment and said, "If I can cure Bo Yan's illness, I can also take the opportunity to gain his trust. Does Duoduo have such medicine?"

This is the easiest place to start.

"No, there's no such elixir in the mall. Bo Yan's illness is a heart disease, so ordinary elixirs won't work." Duoduo said with regret.

Jiang Zhili nodded, but she did not stop sliding around the mall.

She doesn't need to completely cure Bo Yan's heart disease, but it would be enough to alleviate it.

After a moment, her eyes rested on a pill called 'Body Fragrance Pill'.

It says on this 'body fragrance pill' that it has the effect of soothing emotions and calming the mind.

All you need to do is take the pill, and a faint and elegant fragrance will appear on the person who takes the pill. This fragrance has a calming effect and can make people around you calm down.

"Is this pill effective?" Jiang Zhili asked Duoduo in his mind.

Duoduo hesitated for a moment before speaking in a mechanical voice: "This pill is good, but it only treats the symptoms of Bo Yan's illness. It can only suppress his emotions and prevent him from getting sick."

"Are there any sequelae?"

Duoduo patted his chest and said, "Of course not. How could something produced by the system possibly have any side effects?"

"That's it!" Jiang Zhili curled her lips, and in her mind, she bought the body fragrance pill.

After using up 200 points, a pure white ball appeared in her palm. The ball emitted a faint fragrance that was very pleasant.

Jiang Zhili swallowed the meatball and waited for a moment. Then she lowered her head and sniffed her hands. Sure enough, she smelled a faint, fresh fragrance, but when she sniffed carefully, she could no longer smell it.

The scent is very light, fresh and long-lasting, not as heavy as the ordinary scent of cosmetics.

Duoduo reminded Jiang Zhili in his mind: {Host, after you take this pill, you will have a body fragrance, but you cannot smell it yourself.}

Jiang Zhili nodded to show that he understood.

This is the same as the fact that people with body odor cannot smell their own body odor.

--------------------

The next day, evening.

Jiang Zhili went to stand guard at the study door again.

It wasn't her turn tonight, but she took the initiative to change shifts.

She wanted to get close to Bo Yan as soon as possible.

There was candlelight in the study, and Bo Yan was handling official business inside.

Jiang Zhili and Qingci were guarding outside the door together.

Qingci stood opposite her, winked at her, and said in a low voice, "Xiao Li, you really treat me very well. You even changed your shift to come and stand guard with me."

If Xiao Li wasn't a man, he would have wanted to marry her...

Jiang Zhili: “…”

Seeing that Jiang Zhili didn't say anything, Qingci didn't care much and turned to think about tomorrow's meal.

After a while, Qingci moved his nose and looked into the dark night.

"Xiao Li, do you smell anything? It smells quite nice, fresh and elegant."

Jiang Zhili looked up at Qingci and made up a story, "Maybe it's the bamboo forest behind me, or the fragrance emitted by the trees."

Qingci looked towards the bamboo forest with a puzzled look on his face.

"You two, bring in the midnight snack for the prince," At this time, the butler came over, holding a food box in his hand, and greeted Jiang Zhili and Qingci.

It is now past three o'clock in the morning and most of the servants in the mansion are asleep. Qingsong has diarrhea again, so it is okay to ask these two people to take him in.

Jiang Zhili's eyes lit up, and she trotted towards the housekeeper and took the food box from the housekeeper's hand.

The butler glanced at Jiang Zhili's attentiveness and smiled, "You're quite perceptive, but you need to be careful. The prince doesn't like others to talk too much, so just keep your head down and do your work."

Jiang Zhili nodded repeatedly: "I'll take note of it."

Seeing that she was quite well-behaved, the housekeeper waved his hand and told her to quickly take the lunch box into the study.

Jiang Zhili carried the lunch box and quietly pushed open the door of the study.

The candlelight at the study door was very bright, and there was no servant inside.

The room was very large, filled with many books, and the bookshelves against the walls almost reached the ceiling.

The tall and slender Bo Yan sat in front of the desk, leaning over to look at something.

The man was dressed in a white robe and had an angelic appearance. He should have given people a feeling of floating in the air, but his cold and austere aura suppressed them, making people feel afraid.

Jiang Zhili lowered his head and put the food box on the table without looking up at Bo Yan.

She opened the lunch box, which contained simple plain noodles. She took out the noodles and placed them in front of Bo Yan, then picked up the lunch box and pushed it aside.

Jiang Zhili was standing neither too far nor too close to Bo Yan, so she wouldn't annoy him, and the scent on her body was enough to reach him.

She lowered her head slightly, her eyes fixed on the brick floor.

Bo Yan's gaze remained on the book, and he didn't even glance at Jiang Zhili.

It was not until Jiang Zhili stood there for a while that he shifted his gaze to the noodles.

Bo Yan picked up the chopsticks and started eating noodles.

After taking only a few bites, he put down his chopsticks and looked towards where Jiang Zhili was standing with a cold gaze.

When he saw Jiang Zhili's thin figure, Bo Yan frowned.

"Do you smell anything?" Bo Yan's eyes flashed with coldness, and his tone was also sinister.

Ever since this person came in, he smelled a fresh and refreshing scent. The scent was light and seemed to be soothing, which eased the throbbing pain in his temples a lot.

Jiang Zhili lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, I don't smell anything."

From Bo Yan's direction, he could only see the servant's thin figure and porcelain-white forehead.

Bo Yan became interested. Could it be that this person had some sachet on him?

He opened his thin lips and said, "Come here before me."
