Chapter 437 The beloved girl was killed by her grandmother
"I know an old eunuch who has left the palace for many years." Qi Bai said.
"That's great. Without further ado, bring him here immediately. Let's go and try to convince the general in Ningzhou first!"
Sang Ning wrapped himself in his robe and felt like an ice sculpture, without a trace of human warmth.
"Qi Bai," Ling Zhou whispered behind him, "You're acting a little strangely now. You seem to be becoming more and more presumptuous. The master's order is for us to escort the lady away."
"Ling Zhou, from the moment the prince asked us to follow our master, we were no longer puppets who only obeyed orders. Don't you think that our lives have begun to have meaning?"
Ling Zhou remained silent.
Qi Bai turned around, thinking about the old eunuch.
I haven't seen him for a year. He shouldn't be dead yet, right?
He suddenly felt a chill on his back, and the sword pierced his body.
Ling Zhou...
I didn't expect you to be...
"Qi Bai, you probably forgot that only by being ruthless can one live longer..."
"Someone come, someone come!" Lin Dong shouted.
Ling Zhou no longer cared about others.
The order he received was to kidnap Sang Ning.
Sang Ning was knocked unconscious and taken away by Ling Zhou.
Qi Bai covered his wound and climbed up.
What do you mean by ruthless? If you are ruthless, why bother to stab me?
But it is a fact that Ling Zhou is loyal to the Grand Princess.
How confusing.
He only got his name because of the Crown Prince, so how could he give up the chance for a new life...
Now, I have to hurry and inform the owner.
…
When Sang Ning woke up again, he was in a cave.
It's dark.
There were three fires in the cave, and she was in the middle of them.
She sat up in fear, thinking she was being cremated.
Behind the firewood, Ling Zhou, dressed in black and with a black face, sat like a messenger from hell.
The firelight cast his shadow on the cave wall, like a giant beast.
"I thought you were dead." He said coldly.
Sang Ning's body was like a piece of ice. If he wasn't still breathing, no one would have thought he was a corpse.
It's so weird.
"Oh, it's almost there, only ten days left."
There were still more than twenty days left, but she now planned to swallow the talisman water to give herself more strength.
Whether you drink the talisman before you die or now, you will only live for another ten days.
In any case, she must not fall into the hands of the Grand Princess.
She always carried a porcelain bottle of water with her, ready to drink the magic water at any time.
Sang Ning took out the talisman paper.
"What is it?" Ling Zhou snatched it away.
"It's medicine. You don't want me to become a corpse now, do you?" Sang Ning said weakly.
"I have a cold and need to drink talisman water every day. Otherwise, I will freeze to death in my dream and never wake up."
Ling Zhou obviously felt unconvinced. He looked at the talisman cautiously and smelled it.
Finally handed it to her.
"Don't try to play tricks. You can't escape from my palm."
"I know."
Sang Ning took the paper, lit it, put it into the porcelain bottle, and drank it in one gulp after it was completely melted.
At the same time, Qingshan Taoist Temple.
Taoist Priest Song and Taoist Priest Liu, who were meditating, opened their eyes at the same time.
"The time limit has finally come."
"Junior brother, close the door and let's help her on her final journey!"
The two took out the talisman from under the cauldron, sat on the cushions, pierced their middle fingers together, and let the blood drip onto the talisman paper. A faint light escaped from their fingertips and wrapped the talisman paper.
Sang Ning felt a surge of warmth.
It spread out from the cold joints between the bones.
There is also a long-lost power.
She finally felt the warmth of a normal person again.
But she couldn't be happy because her life was already in countdown.
Ling Zhou reached out and grabbed her wrist again.
The body temperature really returned to normal.
"What disease do you have? Do you really have ten days left to live?"
"incurable disease."
Ling Zhou's eyes changed a little, as if they were sympathetic.
Sang Ning didn't believe it.
After all, he even killed his companions with whom he had lived for many years.
It can be seen that he is cold-blooded and ruthless.
She curled up on the hay again and closed her eyes.
Fortunately, Ling Zhou did not search her body, and all her belongings were still there. He probably thought she was harmless.
Ling Zhou stared at her for a while.
Originally, he could have carried her to the capital in one breath.
But he really wanted to understand one thing.
This was also the first time he felt curious since joining the Black Armor Guard.
The eldest princess is powerful and domineering, and can command the three armies.
And Sang Ning looked so weak, as if she would fall down at the slightest gust of wind. When she came out of the tent, she tucked her head in, with only her eyes showing.
There was no harshness in his words.
But such a woman can also command the three armies.
Moreover, all the generals of the Huo family army were respectful and obedient to her.
He just wanted to know, how did she do it?
Sang Ning fell asleep, breathing evenly.
Ling Zhou also fell asleep leaning against the mountain wall.
There seemed to be a little more fragrance in the air, but also seemed to be absent.
Ling Zhou had a dream.
He dreamed that the Grand Princess pointed a sword at him and shouted, "Death to the traitor!"
That was the slogan they had been shouting since they started training at the age of eight.
This slogan seemed to be engraved into his bones, so much so that whenever he had disrespectful thoughts, he would have nightmares.
Sweat broke out on Ling Zhou's forehead. He tried hard to break free from the dream, but his whole body seemed to be bound and he couldn't wake up.
Until he felt severe pain.
The pain finally made him open his eyes, and what he saw was Sang Ning's smiling and harmless face.
And there was a golden hairpin inserted in his chest.
Only by being ruthless can you live longer.
He forgot that one can live longer without desires.
But his only curiosity cost him his life.
…
Hua family.
The heavily guarded Yufuyuan.
Prince Hua entered the yard.
Even if you are imprisoned, no one here dares to treat you badly.
The fire in the house was burning brightly, and the young man sat by the window, quietly carving a piece of wood in his hand.
He is as pure as ice and snow.
Prince Hua was a little dazed.
I vaguely remember the woman who died young.
The son looks very much like his mother.
"Yan'er, stop doing this. If your grandmother finds out, she'll be angry again."
"Father has always listened to Grandmother. Is she satisfied with you?"
Prince Hua was speechless.
He didn't speak, and the boy didn't say anything either.
The room was silent.
As usual, Prince Hua would leave after a while.
But today, he didn't leave.
"Father, do you have anything else to say? If not, I need to rest."
"Yan'er, your mother was killed by your grandmother."
Prince Hua finally mustered up the courage to meet his son's clear eyes.
The boy's eyes didn't change at all.
"You know?"
"Know."
"You..." Prince Hua seemed to be getting to know his son for the first time. "How did you know? When did you know?"
I knew it, but he never asked a question!
How many secrets does this son have in his heart?
Did he ever resent his grandmother and his cowardly father?
"Ten years old, you're drunk."
My father got drunk and said that my mother was killed by my grandmother.
While she was weak after giving birth, safflower, which can cause hemorrhage, was added to the health-promoting soup.
Because her status was too low, she was not worthy of her father who came from a prominent family.
“No wonder… no wonder you haven’t been close to your grandmother since then.
Yan'er, do you blame your father for being useless? "
Hua Buyan shook his head.
My father also fought.
The result of the struggle was that he rode a horse while drunk and fell off his horse, injuring his roots and becoming unable to have children.
He also became a precious young master who could not be replaced by anyone.
Father did it on purpose.
He doesn't complain.
Given my father's gentle nature, this is already the biggest resistance he has ever made.
On one side is his mother, on the other side is his beloved wife, and there is also a motherless child, and he chose... to hurt himself.
He avenged his mother and gave the best to his only son.
Even though he was born from the daughter of a minor official, even though he was called a fool by others, he still sat firmly on the throne of the crown prince.
"Yan'er, if it were you, and the girl you loved was killed by your grandmother, what would you do?"
