…
next day
She tilted her head slightly and glanced around the room.
The quilt on the bed had already fallen to the ground and lay wrinkled beside the footstool, with a few ambiguous dark red stains on it.
The bed curtains were half-draped, the originally delicate gauze curtains were pulled askew, and the hook on one side was even pulled loose, hanging precariously.
Torn clothes were scattered on the ground, and her gauze skirt was torn into several pieces, curled up pitifully in the corner.
The red candle had long been burned out, and layers of wax tears condensed on the candlestick.
On the floor, red candles dripped out a human-shaped blank area.
The teacup on the table was overturned, and the tea had long since dried up, leaving only dark brown stains.
Li Lingge chuckled, then suddenly leaned over and whispered in her ear.
"I'll come again tonight."
Mo Xuan's fingertips trembled slightly, but she could only respond obediently: "Ruyan is waiting for Your Highness."
He stood up with satisfaction, turned around and left, leaving the room in a mess.
The moment the door closed, Mo Xuan finally allowed herself to collapse, hatred surging in her eyes.
There are still twenty-nine days left, and she must make him die!
…
The night rain was like silk, and the eaves of the palace were dripping with broken pearls.
When Qin Tianyi pushed open the door, the candle flame flickered without wind, casting a distorted shadow on the wall.
He paused, his right hand already on the sword at his waist.
"Guardian Qin is very alert."
A soft laugh came from the shadows, and Li Lingge came out from behind the screen. The cloud pattern embroidered with silver thread on his moon-white brocade robe was faintly visible in the candlelight.
Qin Tianyi's pupils suddenly shrank: "Third Prince?"
He quickly closed the door with his backhand, and the black iron scabbard hit the door frame with a dull sound.
"Why are you visiting so late at night?"
Li Lingge walked to the table and said, "I want to make a deal with you using the list of medicinal ingredients for the God-Forging Pill."
Thunder exploded outside the window, illuminating the cold sweat on Qin Tian's forehead.
He stared at Li Lingge, feeling a little dry.
"What does your highness want?"
Li Lingge chuckled and pulled out a roll of silk from his sleeve and spread it on the table.
The silk book depicts a topographical map of the Ten Thousand Spider Valley, with five small characters annotated next to it: "Poisonous Spider Po's Ancestor's Land", the ink still wet.
"Tell me about Second Brother's plan."
Qin Tian's breathing became heavy. The God-Forging Pill was the key that would allow him to break free from the shackles.
He naturally didn't want to betray the second prince, but the third prince gave him too much.
"The Second Prince wants to obtain the Chaos Azure Lotus from the ancestral land." Qin Tianyi heard his own hoarse voice, "Because the Second Prince has found out that one of the herbs required for the God-Forging Pill is the Chaos Azure Lotus."
Li Lingge drank the tea in his hand and then handed the list to Qin Tianyi.
"This is the list of ingredients for the God-Forging Pill. Now let's talk about his specific plan."
Qin Tianyi took the list of medicinal materials in his hand, looked at it carefully, and then told Zhao Lingyu all of his plans.
Li Lingge nodded with satisfaction, and then spoke.
"You will continue to stay with your second brother until the day I ask you to twist his throat."
Thunder roared, and Qin Tianyi clenched the God-Forging Pill Formula in his hand.
"Yes, sir."
