Chapter 23: Honey Trap 1 "If this is what fate has destined me to do, I would rather...
The fragrance in the room lingered. Zhu Song wanted to leave, but he was too exhausted to do so. So he shouted at the door with all his might, "Call Zhu Lingye over here."
The person at the door responded. Zhu Song couldn't sit still anymore and wanted to fall to the ground, but it would be too ugly to do so. So he supported his legs which were as soft as tofu and walked to the bed and fell on it.
Zhu Song lay on the bed, holding the sword tightly against his chest with both hands. Just when he felt that he was about to die, the sound of a door opening was heard in the quiet room.
Zhu Song thought it was Zhu Lingye who came, so he said, "Put out the incense in the room."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard footsteps. The other party walked around the room as if looking for the location of the incense. After a while, he heard a "sizzling" sound, which was the sound of water hitting the fire, and there was an unpleasant smell of smoke.
Zhu Song couldn't even open his eyes. He heard Zhu Lingye approach the bed. He closed his eyes and said, "Guard me. Don't let anyone get close to me."
"good."
This wasn't Zhu Lingye's voice. Zhu Song suddenly opened his eyes and when he saw the person standing in front of him, his eyes widened in fear. He sat up immediately in shock, "Why are you here?"
Wen Fengxuan's expression was calm, but there was an unusual blush on his face, which looked a bit abnormal. He replied, "Yi Kangning brought me back to the governor's office the day the disaster victims entered the city."
Zhu Song frowned slightly. Doesn’t that mean he has been here for several days?
"Then why haven't I seen you before?"
"He locked me up."
Zhu Song watched Wen Fengxuan say such provocative words with the calmest expression, and he became a little excited. "You've been locked up by Yi Kangning? Is he planning a rebellion?"
Wen Fengxuan said: "I didn't reveal my identity."
Zhu Song was puzzled, "Why?"
Wen Fengxuan said: "I'm afraid something might happen."
Zhu Song's mind was a mess and he didn't understand what he said, but the question was, if Yi Kangning didn't know that Wen Fengxuan was the prince, then what did Yi Kangning want to do by bringing him here now?
"You snuck in here?"
Wen Fengxuan replied: "Yi Kangning brought me here."
Zhu Song felt that this kind of communication was too inefficient, but his mind was also in a state of confusion at the moment, so he could only follow his words and ask, "What are you doing here?"
Wen Fengxuan stopped talking. There was not much light in the room, so only a rough outline could be seen. But even so, it still couldn't hide Wen Fengxuan's beauty. Zhu Song could have suppressed his body's reaction, but when he saw Wen Fengxuan's face, he suddenly reacted very strongly and almost couldn't control it. He could only pull the quilt to cover the abnormality of his body.
"Yi Kangning has a problem, you go out first."
Wen Fengxuan spoke frankly, "He was waiting at the door, and I couldn't get out."
Zhu Song's head was buzzing with pain. "Then just jump out the window. Anyway, I don't care what method you use, just get out now. And call Zhu Lingye and Zhu Lingwang over to me. I'll have them keep you safe."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Song felt a chill on his forehead. The soft and cold touch almost made Zhu Song scream, but he bit his lips tightly and reached out to open Wen Fengxuan's hand.
Zhu Song used all his strength, and there was a loud "bang" in the air. Wen Fengxuan was knocked to the side, but Zhu Song couldn't stop listening to the sound. His mind began to uncontrollably imagine some inappropriate pictures.
This won't work. Zhu Song raised his head and glared at Wen Fengxuan fiercely, "Let's go."
Wen Fengxuan tilted his head to look at him. This slightly childish look made Zhu Song's blood boil. He turned his face away with difficulty, "Don't look at me like that."
Wen Fengxuan spoke as if he didn't know what euphemism meant. "You're feeling very uncomfortable, and he also drugged you."
Zhu Song felt as if his body was on fire. He just frowned slightly, and the pain of his skin being pulled felt like it was on fire. His gaze fell on Wen Fengxuan again. Only he knew how impatient he was. "What do you mean he drugged you too? He drugged you too?"
Wen Fengxuan nodded, "When you go to Wushan, you must have sex on the day you take this medicine and on the fifteenth of every month. Otherwise, the poison will cause your qi and blood to flow backwards, and thousands of ants will devour your heart. If you do this three times in a row, you will die of blood depletion."
"What?" Zhu Song was so shocked as if he was struck by lightning, while Wen Fengxuan was so calm in comparison as if he was talking about someone else's business.
Wen Fengxuan lowered his eyes and said, "Don't worry, I won't live long anyway. I might die in less than three months."
His tone was gentle, like a calm lake, but Zhu Song felt uncomfortable. He turned his face away and said, "Don't say that. There must be a way to cure it."
Wen Fengxuan raised his eyes to look at him and abruptly changed the subject. "Before, I fainted from the poison, and I heard that you risked your life outside the capital to find dragon bones for me. I've always wanted to thank you in person, but I never had the chance. Although the timing isn't right now, and I don't know if I'll live until tomorrow morning, please allow me to say this to you now: thank you, Zhu Song. You are the first person in this world who has been kind to me, but I was born unlucky, and early death is my fate, and I've long accepted it."
Wen Fengxuan started laughing as he spoke, his relief making people feel even more uncomfortable. Zhu Song couldn't see this and quickly said, "Stop laughing, I beg you, I'll go find Yi Kangning to get the antidote."
Wen Fengxuan said: "He won't give it to you."
Zhu Song couldn't contain his anger and said, "Kill him if you don't let me."
Zhu Song suddenly threw off the quilt and stood up, but he overestimated his ability. As soon as he stepped on the ground, his legs became soft as cotton and he fell straight to the ground. Wen Fengxuan saw this and hurried to support him, but failed to hold him, and the two fell to the ground in a ball.
Zhu Song was so exhausted that he still worried about Wen Fengxuan, fearing that he would get hurt. He quickly helped him onto himself. Wen Fengxuan lay on Zhu Song, and the two of them were so close that their breaths collided. Zhu Song stared at the beautiful face so close to him without blinking, and swallowed involuntarily.
No wonder he couldn't control himself, it was really beautiful.
At such a close distance, Wen Fengxuan naturally couldn't hide Zhu Song's condition. His face turned red instantly. He supported himself on the ground and sat up, but ended up sitting on Zhu Song again. He groaned from the burn and lay back down.
Zhu Song was already like a man on fire, holding on by his last bit of rationality. When he shouted, the last bit of rationality of Zhu Song was broken. He reached out and pressed down on the back of Wen Fengxuan's head. Their lips touched, and the cold touch made Zhu Song deeply trapped. But he didn't want to force others, so he bit the tip of his tongue hard. The sharp pain made him regain his rationality, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
"Let's go, Wen Fengxuan, I can't control myself anymore."
At this moment, Zhu Song got to know himself again. It turned out that although he was lustful, he was actually a gentleman at heart.
There was a slight itch on the side of his lips. Zhu Song looked at Wen Fengxuan in disbelief. His eyes became more and more hazy, as if he was drunk. His face was red as if it was dripping blood. His soft fingertips brushed the corner of his mouth, and his white fingertips were stained red with blood. Wen Fengxuan lowered his head and whispered in his ear: "Little Immortal Official, help me, I feel so uncomfortable."
Zhu Song's eyes widened, he was stunned in disbelief. It turned out that the cold voice could become so charming under the catalysis of the drug.
"But your body..."
Reason firmly grasped Zhu Song's brain, and he dared not let go even a little bit. If he let go, he would become a beast and could tear the fragile and sick beauty in front of him into pieces.
But the man in front of him seemed unaware of the approaching danger and used the sharpest blade to cut off his sanity one by one. He said, "I... can bear it."
Zhu Song's mind was on the verge of collapse. He swallowed the sweet taste in his throat in big gulps and asked, "Don't you regret it? I can really go get you the antidote."
"If this is what fate has to lead to, I'd rather it be you, Little Immortal Official."
Wen Fengxuan was very abnormal, but this did not prevent Zhu Song's sanity from completely collapsing.
With a loud 'boom', the man turned into a beast. The inexperienced beast rushed all the way, tearing the person in front of it into pieces and eating him up, leaving nothing behind. Everything became his.
There was constant crying in the house, but Yi Kangning and Duan Zhenghong outside were overjoyed, thinking that they had finally secured the victory. But then they looked disdainful, thinking that the so-called noble and honest imperial envoy was nothing but an insignificant outlier.
Yi Kangning ordered someone to guard the door and not let anyone in. He then went back to his room and had a good sleep. He hadn't had a good night's sleep since Zhu Song came to Jizhou.
Duan Zhenghong was stimulated by the noise in the house, and hurried back home to make love with his dozens of beautiful concubines.
The next day, Zhu Lingye waited for a long time but Zhu Song noticed something was wrong and came to find him. The noise in the house had just stopped. Zhu Lingye looked at the heavily guarded door and walked towards it quickly, but was stopped when he was approaching. "Master Zhu, the governor has ordered that no one should disturb the imperial envoy."
"How dare you!" Zhu Lingye shouted. "How dare you imprison the imperial envoy? I will report this to the emperor, and none of you present here will escape."
When the yamen runners heard his words, they quickly explained, "No, Master Zhu, we would never dare to imprison the imperial envoy. We are only following orders."
"Then will you obey my orders?" Zhu Lingye said coldly, "If you don't move out of the way, you will be charged with assassinating the imperial envoy."
The yamen runners looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment. Just then, Yi Kangning yawned and walked over, saying lazily, "Master Zhu, please don't be so angry so early in the morning."
Since the relationship had already been exposed, Zhu Lingye stopped pretending and said directly: "It's getting late. For the crime that Master Yi has committed, beheading him is about to begin."
Being cursed like this, Yi Kangning's face instantly turned ugly, but he smiled again in just a moment. He said, "Master Zhu will only be arrogant for a short while. When the imperial envoy comes out later, Master Zhu, don't cry if you get scolded."
Zhu Lingye stared at him coldly, not wanting to say a single extra word to him, "Open the door, what on earth have you done to my brother?"
Yi Kangning spread his hands and said, "I love you so much, Your Excellency. I will naturally treat you well."
"Bullshit, if you don't open the door, don't blame me for being rude." Zhu Lingye said as he drew his sword. He was a member of the Imperial Guard and had first-rate kung fu skills, which Yi Kangning naturally knew, so he didn't intend to confront him head-on.
"Please be patient, my Lord. I really didn't do anything, but it's really inconvenient for you to go in now. How about this, let's wait here for the Imperial Envoy to come out."
Zhu Lingye didn't waste time talking to him and rushed forward with his sword in hand.
"stop."
