The mysterious man wanted to use her to kill Yue Jinyun, but Chu Qingxuan refused, so he framed her and made her take the blame.
She became the scapegoat.
Chu Qingxuan gave a bitter smile. This world is so miserable.
She sat on the ground, with the squeaking of mice nearby and the chirping of crickets outside.
There are quite a few small animals around here.
Chu Qingxuan's life in the prison was not peaceful. Every few days, someone would come and ask her to sign and put her fingerprint on documents, making her admit that she wanted to assassinate Yue Jinyun.
Each time, Chu Qingxuan coldly refused, taking the opportunity to mock those people.
The jailers were furious every time, but none of them tortured her.
This was also what puzzled Chu Qingxuan.
In the Fourth Prince's residence, Yue Jinyun lay on the bed, her face deathly pale. Her eyes were tightly closed, and her breathing was very weak, as if she would die at any moment.
Long Yao sat down next to Yue Jin Yun, gently stroking her cheek with his fingers. He said, "Yun'er, I will make those who hurt you pay the price."
The doctor walked in carrying his medicine chest, and someone next to Long Yao reminded him, "Your Highness, the doctor is here."
"Take good care of her." Long Yao stepped aside to let the doctor examine Yue Jinyun.
After the examination, the doctor said, "Your Highness, this young lady's wound is not fatal; what is fatal is the poison in her body."
Long Yao asked, "What kind of poison is it?"
The doctor stroked his beard and said, "This poison only exists in the Western Regions. It's called Sleeping Beauty. People who are poisoned by this will fall into a deep sleep and die in their sleep. Unless someone finds an antidote in a short period of time, they will die immediately."
Hearing the doctor say this, Long Yao became anxious. He grabbed the doctor's collar and said, "Then you should give her the antidote!"
The doctor was startled, and after seeing the doctor's expression, Long Yao reluctantly released him.
The doctor knelt on the ground, looking terrified. "Your Highness, only the person who administered the poison has it. I am unable to concoct an antidote."
Upon hearing this, Long Yao turned to look at Yue Jinyun on the bed, and after a long while, he finally spoke.
"Go down."
After the doctor left, Long Yao left the Fourth Prince's residence. Half an hour later, Long Yao appeared in the prison cell.
When Chu Qingxuan saw Long Yao, a look of surprise flashed across her eyes.
The prison was too dark, and Chu Qingxuan couldn't see Long Yao's expression clearly. Chu Qingxuan thought that Long Yao's face must be very ugly at this moment.
Because Long Yao has fallen for Yue Jin Yun.
"Chu Qingxuan, give me the antidote for Sleeping Beauty." Long Yao's tone was icy.
Chu Qingxuan gave a firm answer: "There is no antidote."
She didn't assassinate the person, so how could she possibly have the antidote?
Long Yao's gaze was deep and unfathomable. He approached Chu Qingxuan, and through the light, Chu Qingxuan saw Long Yao's cold and piercing eyes. "You were the one who poisoned me, how could there be no antidote?"
Chu Qingxuan laughed in anger. She said, "I haven't even admitted that I killed Yue Jinyun, so how could I be the one who poisoned her?"
This perfectly illustrates how misfortune can strike from the sky.
Long Yao gritted his teeth and said, "You're stubborn, aren't you? Then this prince will find a way to make you admit it!"
"Guards, administer severe torture!"
Chu Qingxuan: "..."
There's something I want to say, but I don't know if I should. Even if you kill me, I have no cure.
Chu Qingxuan said sarcastically, "Instead of acting so arrogantly here, Fourth Prince, you should hurry up and find the real culprit and the antidote."
Just as Long Yao was about to make a move, someone rushed in.
"Your Highness, I have something to report."
