Chu Yi has lived for so many years, almost entirely in a false life.
Although his father and mother treated him well, they had too many expectations of him and did not allow him to make any mistakes in his words or actions.
The seemingly glamorous position of crown prince in the eyes of outsiders had exhausted him.
Only in front of Nanzhi did he feel more authentic.
"Cough cough..." His vision was beginning to blur, the handkerchief in front of him was covered in blood, and he was speaking with great difficulty, "Nightblade, go and bring back everything from the East Palace... the secret room, and be quick..."
He actually had ulterior motives for putting all those things there in the first place.
He wanted to test whether she would come back to him, whether she would discover his secret of being hopelessly in love with her, and whether she would be moved...
Ultimately, he was just too greedy; he wanted her to love him just once too.
Knowing that she doesn't care now is a good thing.
At least his departure won't affect her.
But he couldn't bear to leave those things there all alone.
He wanted to see them one last time before he lost his sight.
But seeing him like this, Ye Ren dared not leave and hurriedly went out to call Doctor Zhou.
After leaving the imperial city, Chu Yi came to see Doctor Zhou.
The memories here are so beautiful, I could die here without regrets.
They didn't live with Doctor Zhou; Nightblade and the others built a small wooden cabin right next to Doctor Zhou's.
Doctor Zhou rushed over and, upon seeing the blood on his handkerchief, couldn't help but curse.
"Are you out of your mind? You're about to die, why are you taking that fake death drug and torturing yourself?"
He cursed as he performed acupuncture on Chu Yi.
But this time it was clearly no use.
In the end, Chu Yi had already fainted, and blood continued to spill from the corner of his mouth, growing darker and darker until it was almost black, which was truly horrifying.
After finally bringing him under control, Doctor Zhou wiped the cold sweat from his brow and said, "He can't go on. Without the Spirit Rhinoceros Horn, he could only hold on for five more days at most. What are his last wishes? Fulfill them quickly."
Upon hearing this, Nightblade looked at Chu Yi, whose face had turned deathly pale. In just one month, Chu Yi had become so thin that he was almost unrecognizable.
Last wish...
Is it that pile of things?
No, his last wish was to see that heartless person.
"Zhizhi..."
Nightblade watched him fall into a deep sleep, still calling that person's name. His brows furrowed, as if he had made up his mind. He instructed Doctor Zhou to take good care of Chu Yi, then turned and quickly left the wooden house.
Nightblade searched the Gate of No Return for a long time, but still couldn't find Nanzhi.
During this time, he also fought several times with the Wu Hui Men (a group of people who had no followers), and suffered many injuries.
I wanted to find Nanzhi so she could see Chuyi one last time.
But by the fourth day he still hadn't found it. Fearing that if he delayed any longer, Chu Yi wouldn't even have time to look at those things one last time, he had no choice but to go to the East Palace.
After Chu Yi's "death," the Eastern Palace was completely sealed off.
The emperor and empress were both in grief, and the emperor was furious that Chu Ning had plotted to harm Chu Yi, so he ordered Chu Ning's execution. Therefore, no prince dared to make a move against the crown prince for the time being.
Nightblade found the dark room, opened it, and went inside. Just as he was about to take away what Chu Yi had entrusted to him, he sensed that something was wrong.
He turned around and saw a familiar person, arms crossed, leaning against the wall near the door of the dark room.
He was surprised and was about to speak when he heard her ask, "Where is he?"
Nightblade was even more shocked.
Is she also looking for her master?
Chu Yi's condition can no longer be described as bad; he has been unconscious for much longer than he has been conscious.
He has completely lost his sight and hearing, leaving only his sense of touch.
He couldn't distinguish between day and night; the only thing he could feel was the pain of falling down every time he got up.
The question he asks most every day is...
"Where's Nightblade? Has he come back yet?"
It is said that people have some premonition before they die. He could sense that his time was coming to an end, which is why he was so anxious to see Nightblade.
It seemed that some people had entered the room, and he touched it with his hand.
The first person to approach was Doctor Zhou, whose clothes were the roughest.
The second one touched the table.
The third one bumped into a stool and fell down.
"Nightblade, where is Nightblade..." He frantically rubbed his hands, trying to get up, when someone pulled him up.
He instinctively reached out to touch the other person's hand, but stopped abruptly as soon as he did.
A strange sense of familiarity sent a shiver down his spine. He wasn't sure, so he touched it again, and it still felt the same.
He seemed startled, immediately releasing the other person's hand, his brow furrowed, and pretending the other person didn't exist, continuing his search for Nightblade.
Along the way, Nightblade had already told Nanzhi that Chuyi's situation was bad, but Nanzhi did not expect it to be this bad.
Four of the five senses are lost.
As the crown prince, he always paid the most attention to his appearance. Perhaps afraid that his blindness would frighten others, he even covered his eyes with a silk cloth.
But now he is thin, haggard and weak, and looks nothing like the handsome and dignified crown prince he once was.
She knew he had recognized her, but now she pretended not to, was she deceiving herself, afraid that she would see him at his most disheveled?
She didn't rush up, but instead had Nightblade support him and took out the Spirit Rhinoceros Horn to Doctor Zhou.
"Save him! Immediately, right now!"
Doctor Zhou stared at the rhinoceros horn in front of him, then looked at Nan Zhi, whose face was cold and expressionless, and was even more stunned.
She actually gave the rhinoceros horn to Chu Yi to cure his illness?
"If you hesitate for another second, I'll kill you right now."
The divine physician Zhou immediately realized what was happening. He had Nan Zhi press Chu Yi's acupoints to put him to sleep and helped him lie down on the bed. He then carried the spirit rhinoceros horn and looked like he was about to leave.
Nanzhi glanced at him: "You want to run away?"
Doctor Zhou laughed in exasperation, "My medicine chest is in my room. I'm going to slice it and decoct it. Is such a huge rhinoceros horn supposed to be fed directly to you?"
Nan Zhi didn't believe her completely. "If you dare to run away with the Spirit Rhinoceros Horn, I will chase you to the ends of the earth and kill your whole family."
Doctor Zhou: Hehe, he's the only one left in his whole family.
He cursed inwardly, but on the surface he still had to put on an act. He nodded in a pretentious manner, "I know. He's about to die. It will take me at least four hours to brew the medicine. You need to transfer some internal energy to him so that his heart doesn't stop beating. Otherwise, even a great immortal wouldn't be able to save him."
After Dr. Zhou finished speaking, he took Lingxi Horn and went out. Nightblade followed him right away.
The divine doctor Zhou, who originally wanted to secretly eat a piece of rhinoceros horn, was watched by Nightblade the whole time and didn't dare to move his mouth at all.
These people, day after day, won't stop until they drive this old man to his death.
Fortunately, while the medicine was being decocted, he took a spoonful under the pretext of tasting its properties.
Ugh, that taste almost made him throw up his dinner from the night before.
But remembering that this rhinoceros horn was of the highest quality and shouldn't be wasted, he swallowed it down.
While Doctor Zhou was outside brewing the medicine, Nan Zhi stayed inside, channeling her inner energy into Chu Yi.
