Chapter 96: Beili Wolf King x Central Plains Prince 32
Qianzhou pressed Yinwu's bleeding wound, and his head buzzed.
The noisy exclamations broke the last bit of silence in the Wolf King's Mansion. Qian Zhou's hands were stained with blood. When he saw the dagger stuck in Yin Wu's chest, his heart sank suddenly.
This dagger is exactly the same as the one he carried with him before...
Even the intricate patterns on the hilt are exactly the same.
Guards armed with knives quickly arrived, and dozens of them surrounded the house. Qian Zhou raised his head and saw several knives pointing directly at him.
The cold light of the blade was like a sharp thorn, stinging Qianzhou's eyes in the dim sunlight.
The sun was about to set, and the heavy clouds made Qianzhou breathless. He moved his fingers, and blood gushed out of Yinwu's wound.
Qian Zhou quickly pressed the wound harder, "Where's the doctor?!"
"......" The guard in front of him had a complicated expression and opened his mouth.
But he never said a word.
Soon, Doctor Zheng hurried over, and Qianzhou took a few deep breaths.
He saw Xiao Jintian through the gap between the blades.
"Your Majesty, Yin Chi is also seriously injured and is now unconscious!"
Qian Zhou suddenly felt some tinnitus, his vision blurred and he couldn't see Xiao Jintian's face clearly.
He shook his head, and his blurry vision finally became clear.
Xiao Jintian walked towards this side step by step, Qianzhou followed him with his eyes, and the breath belonging to Xiao Jintian suddenly approached, and he grabbed Qianzhou's wrist.
The force was so strong that Qianzhou frowned slightly.
His hand was taken away and Doctor Zheng quickly stopped Yinwu's bleeding.
Warm and sticky blood flowed down Qianzhou's fingers and dripped onto the ground. The oxygen seemed to be sucked out. Xiao Jintian looked down at him.
Qian Zhou wasn't sure if he saw disappointment in those eyes.
The sudden feeling of suffocation seemed to be an illusion. Qian Zhou was pulled up from the ground by Xiao Jintian, and his wrist bones made a slight crackling sound.
"Your Majesty—"
Xiao Jintian didn't respond and walked very quickly, causing Qian Zhou to stagger a few steps.
His back was against the wall, and the furnishings around him were old. Qianzhou had never been here before and had no idea where this was.
Xiao Jintian kicked the door shut.
With a loud bang, the last ray of light was taken away, and the surroundings fell into darkness.
Qian Zhou was breathing rapidly and wanted to stand up straight, but Xiao Jintian pressed him against the wall.
"Uh..." Qianzhou groaned.
There was no emotion in Xiao Jintian's tone, it was eerily calm.
"Tell me, where did the Third Prince go today and who did he meet?"
This was the first time Xiao Jintian called him that, and in such a cold tone.
Qianzhou was silent for a second.
Two seconds.
"I went to Lanyu Tower and met Lanzhi."
Xiao Jintian didn't ask why he met Lanzhi. He slowly placed his hand on Qianzhou's neck and asked, "Are you going to kill Yinwu? First, cripple Yinchi, then come back and severely injure Yinwu, and then put on a show for me."
"Because the delegation is still in Beili, right?"
Qian Zhou didn't know what it meant to destroy Yin Chi. He blinked slowly, but his vision did not become clear.
Qian Zhou's voice was hoarse: "Will you believe me if I tell you?"
Xiao Jintian didn't answer.
Qian Zhou leaned his head against the wall, his vision suddenly blurred in the darkness, "It's not me..."
"Not you?" Xiao Jintian repeated.
He pressed his fingertips on Qianzhou's throat. As long as he exerted force gently, he could break Qianzhou's neck with a snap.
Xiao Jintian looked into his eyes, "Third Prince...you are so smart."
Qianzhou turned his head. There was something wrong with his eyes and he couldn't see clearly.
He wanted to say something, but heard Xiao Jintian say:
"I don't believe you."
"..." Qian Zhou lowered his eyes, his voice was very light, "Well, you don't believe me, it's understandable..."
The usual curve on the corner of his mouth was gone, and his expression seemed a little sad. Xiao Jintian felt as if a piece of his heart had been cut off.
Blood gushed out bright red.
But in the blink of an eye, the emotion on Qianzhou's face disappeared again.
He asked hoarsely, "Yinchi...what happened?"
Xiao Jintian was silent for a long time, then said, "Her hamstrings were torn, and she fell from the eaves."
Qianzhou's breathing suddenly became heavy and he couldn't speak for a long time.
Xiao Jintian threw the knife on his body with a clang.
Qianzhou didn't understand what he meant, but then Xiao Jintian let him go and should have lit the candle, but Qianzhou couldn't see clearly.
There were blurry blocks of color all around, and Xiao Jintian pulled him to the front.
Qianzhou knocked his knees lightly. Xiao Jintian looked at him, but Qianzhou's face was backlit, so his pupils couldn't be seen clearly and couldn't focus.
Xiao Jintian forced him to kneel on something soft and pinched Qianzhou's chin to force him to look up.
"You said it wasn't you, do you dare to swear to heaven that you didn't lie?"
Qian Zhou raised three fingers, "I swear, every word I said is true. If anyone dares to lie about even a single word, you will be banished from this world forever—"
Xiao Jintian pressed down his hands, and then pressed down on his shoulders so that his head rested on the ground.
"Okay, go ahead and do it!"
Qianzhou wanted to straighten up, as this kneeling and curled-up position was uncomfortable.
But Xiao Jintian pressed the back of his head with one hand, and he heard three bangs next to him.
Xiao Jintian knelt on the cushion and said to the two tablets in front of the coffin:
"Dad! Mom! Did you hear that?"
Qian Zhou's mind went blank. When he realized where he was, he suddenly started to struggle, "Xiao Jintian, you are crazy!"
Xiao Jintian pressed him down and forced him to kneel. "I've only loved this one person in my life, and you insisted on stabbing my heart with a knife! So good—"
Xiao Jintian looked at his parents' spirit tablets and said, "If you dare to lie to me and treat my sincerity as a dog's, then I, Xiao Jintian, will definitely kill you with my own hands in the future!"
"But if you treat me sincerely, I don't care what your status is. I, Xiao Jintian, will only recognize you! I will give you my life!"
Every word and sentence is thought-provoking.
Qian Zhou stood there in a daze, looking up in disbelief, his heart stopping and his breathing stagnant.
“You, you…”
Xiao Jintian held his face in his hands. "Qianzhou, I gave you a chance. You swore that you would be mine, Xiao Jintian's, for the rest of your life."
Xiao Jintian rested his hand on Qian Zhou's forehead and said, "It's settled."
Qianzhou breathed rapidly, "You... cough... cough... cough... cough!"
Xiao Jintian held the person in his arms and raised his hand to stroke Qianzhou's back.
Qianzhou grabbed his sleeve, bent over with coughing, and his robe trembled with his movements.
Qian Zhou's expression froze, his voice fell silent, and his body seemed to suddenly freeze.
He vomited a mouthful of blood.
Then he closed his eyes, fell down weakly, his body went limp, and the hand that was grabbing Xiao Jintian's sleeve also fell down.
"Qianzhou!"
Qian Zhou's face, reflected in the candlelight, was terrifyingly pale, and his lips were an abnormal purple.
Xiao Jintian held his hand, and the temperature of Qianzhou's fingers gradually dropped from the fingertips to the finger marks.
It is... a chronic poison that enters the body through the mouth and will suddenly burst out when it accumulates to a certain level.
Xiao Jintian suddenly realized that there was a treason in the mansion, and gave Qianzhou this extremely energy-depleting slow poison...
Qianzhou was lying on the couch and Doctor Zheng was giving him acupuncture.
He had become thinner, his face pale as he sank into the quilt. Xiao Jintian stood in the shadows.
He recalled that day when Qian Zhou collapsed weakly in his arms, without any energy, without struggling, and without any reaction when he saw the snacks.
He thought it was winter and Qianzhou was not acclimatized.
Now that I think about it, Qian Zhou was probably already feeling unwell at that time...
Xiao Jintian stared quietly at the unconscious person on the bed.
He didn't even notice it at that time.
