Birds on the edge of the abyss 43
"Be sure to keep a close eye on her. If you dare to be careless, I will kill you immediately." Chu Xin said coldly as he looked at Bazhu who was kneeling on the ground.
"Yes, sir," Bazhu said stiffly.
After the two of them disguised themselves and left quickly, Chu Xin rubbed his forehead and looked at Le Luo who was standing beside him.
"Bu Nan is awake?"
Le Luo nodded, and Chu Xin went to visit him for a while, and asked him and Lan Huan to stay in Meizhou, secretly observe the movements of Prince Jing, and send a message at any time.
Three days later, at night, Chu Xin, who had rested for a while, put on his clothes and stood up silently. He looked at Jian Can who appeared out of nowhere behind him and whispered:
"I'll be back soon, so brother... don't stop me."
Jian Can rested his arms on the back of his head, bent his legs and half sat by the window, facing the night wind and looking down. He suddenly spat out the grass he had been chewing, scratched his head irritably, stood up and said, "Huh, I won't stop you, but I have to go with you too."
Chu Xin looked at Jian Can's unyielding gaze and had no choice but to agree.
With Le Luo's superb disguise skills, the two of them quickly knocked out the guards and blended in. As soon as they entered the royal city, they felt a solemn atmosphere that was different from usual, and there was a feeling that a storm was about to come.
Jian Can pulled the corner of his mouth and moved his armor uncomfortably. Just as he dropped his shoulders, he was yelled at by the little leader. He instantly became more energetic. Chu Xin looked at him with amusement. He didn't understand why he accompanied him here to suffer. Le Luo had clearly claimed that he would come with him.
Jian Can understood his look, gave him a look of understanding, and took the lead to follow the patrol team forward.
There were seventy-two patrol teams in the outer and inner cities of the royal city, patrolling in a cross-patrol manner. The two of them had calculated the time to sneak in. It was just the time for the handover. Looking at the gate that slowly rose in front of him, Chu Xin pursed his lips.
On the other side, in a palace in the inner city
Feng Ze released the pale white wrist in his hand and frowned secretly. At this time, a soft voice came from the side. The boy's slightly hoarse voice sounded, and he said earnestly
"Doctor Feng, how is your pulse?"
Feng Ze looked at the anxious Shen Changle and elegantly lifted his long hair. The fragrant breeze blew past, causing Shen Changle to frown. Feng Ze saw it and a smile flashed in his eyes. Then he said
"Although this young master has been poisoned and cannot be cured, I still have a way. I just don't know if you dare to take the risk."
Shen Changle's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked, "What method?"
"Gu" Feng Ze curled his red lips and slowly uttered a word
"Gu?" Shen Changle's expression was stern.
Feng Ze saw this and walked over to him. He circled around him and explained softly, "Young Master, don't worry. The so-called Gu can heal people or harm them. Poisonous Gu harms people invisibly, while good Gu can make people wake up quickly. I happen to be talking about good Gu here."
"I've never heard of the existence of a good poison in southern Xinjiang. Are you kidding me?" Shen Changle covered his chest and coughed a few times, saying cautiously. The arrow had penetrated very deep, and he hadn't recovered in the past few days. He had suffered a lot.
Feng Ze shook his head and said in surprise, "Young Master, you are blaming me wrongly. Just because I haven't heard of it doesn't mean it hasn't happened. It's just that you haven't seen it. Believe it or not, I leave it to you to decide. How about it?"
Chen Changle swallowed his saliva, glanced at his brother who was still lying on the bed, his chest rising and falling weaker and weaker, and gritted his teeth.
"How?"
'You've taken the bait.' Feng Ze narrowed her eyes and put a smile on her lips again. She pointed at Shen Changle, then at Shen Luli, and said with a light mouth.
"Exchange blood." She turned around, her skirt swishing in the air like petals, and came to Shen Luli and continued, "Use your blood to feed the Gu, and then use your brother's blood to lure the Gu worm to eat it. How about that? This is the simplest method."
Her voice was like a tempting siren, causing Shen Changle's eyes to blur for a moment, and then he nodded firmly.
"Just do as you say"
"Then please follow me, sir." Feng Ze stood up, stretched out his slender and healthy arms and said with a smile. Shen Luli looked at Shen Luli hesitantly, and then followed the other party's footsteps.
When passing by Basuke who was waiting nearby, Fengze said, "You stay here and guard the one on the bed. I'll be back soon."
Bazhu lowered his eyes and looked at Fengze silently. He ignored what he said and chose to follow him. On the way, he successfully received Fengze's angry glare.
Chu Xin finally arrived at the bedroom where Shen Luli lived, as reported by the informant. Jian Can yawned and told him to go back quickly, then stood guard at the door.
Chu Xin nodded, took a deep breath and pushed the door open.
When he looked at the figure lying on the bed, he could no longer suppress his inner emotions. He walked forward quickly, knelt on one knee, held the other's warm jade-like hand, lowered his head and kissed it, and whispered, "I'm late, Azi, I'm sorry."
He stretched out his hand to check Shen Luli's pulse for a while. Seeing that Feng Ze had adjusted the person a lot in the past few days, his brows relaxed a lot. He touched Shen Luli's head, looked at the beautiful face, put his arm beside Shen Luli, lowered his head and kissed her.
The sound of water stains continued. Chu Xin opened his golden eyes and looked at the lips that had become unusually beautiful. He endured and said, "Wait for me."
He clenched Shen Luli's hand and prayed devoutly for a long time. Only when Jian Can, who had been waiting outside for a long time, began to knock on the door did he look up at the person who was already deeply asleep, his eyes slightly red.
Chu Xin touched Shen Luli's head, carefully took out an envelope from his arms, and smoothed out the wrinkles on it.
He said, "I don't expect you to see it, nor do I expect your response. I just want to tell you secretly, Azi, whether you respond to me or not, you will be the only wife of my life."
Chu Xin gently placed the envelope under Shen Luyu's pillow, carefully put it away, and said
"You probably don't know that I met you once when we were children, but I later mistook you for Chen Changle. These past few days, I've been tossing and turning, and when I couldn't sleep, I kept thinking back to that scene. It was as if my memory had been restored, and I only then saw clearly that the child had a mole next to his ear..."
Chu Xin pursed her lips, sat in front of the bed and continued
"That winter, you followed the Duke of Zhenguo into the palace. As you carefully walked down the steps on the snow, you accidentally fell and landed on me, causing me severe pain all over. At that time, I was thinking of punishing you, a child who didn't know etiquette, when I found you collapsed on me with a nosebleed, your little face pale and you fainted... Hehe."
Chu Xin lifted the bloodstone on Shen Luli's neck and whispered, "Later, I blamed myself so much that before I could even ask who your family was, my mother sent you into the mountains to become a disciple and practice until you reached adulthood... Now I suddenly realize it's you. How could I have forgotten it was you?"
