Chapter 547 Just Because of a Piece of Rag
Although he couldn't see in the darkness of the night, he could sense that her eyes were fixed on him.
Ye Qianning had forgotten that he had left the palace early in the morning. It was almost noon now and he hadn't eaten anything all day.
After thinking about it, she closed her eyes and listened for a while. She felt relieved when she found nothing unusual in the dense forest.
He brought Sang Zhi to a big tree and took out some cakes and a pot of water from the space and gave them to him.
"Eat it."
Sang Zhi fumbled around and took out the cake, but didn't eat it. Instead, he asked the question in his mind: "It's so dark at night, why do I feel like you can see?"
"Well... Nanyuan is very poor and can't even light a candle at night. I learned this through exercise." Seeing that he didn't move, Ye Qianning reminded him, "Eat quickly. We have to leave quickly after eating. There's no safe place in the mountains."
Sang Zhi obediently ate a piece of cake and murmured softly: "Do you think I'm stupid and useless?"
Ye Qianning was slightly stunned, and said jokingly: "Why, are you starting to feel inferior because I'm so awesome?"
Sang Zhi shook his head and said nothing more.
"Who gave you that note?" Ye Qianning asked.
"It was a young eunuch who told me that you were kidnapped on the way to the palace."
"What do you look like? You believe what the little eunuch said? Do you have any brains at all?"
"I didn't believe it at first, but the eunuch, who was beaten black and blue, said that his captors had spared his life and asked him to come back to report, and he even produced a token."
"What token?"
Sang Zhi took out a piece of cloth from his arms and fumbled to hand it to her.
Ye Qianning took it and knew it was the fabric she wore every day. She frowned immediately and said, "Just because of a piece of rag and a letter?"
Sang Zhi remained silent, indicating his agreement.
Ye Qianning clenched the cloth tightly, feeling a tightness in his chest. Was he being naive... or stupid?
"From now on, if you encounter something like this again, just ignore it. If you're really unsure, talk to someone you trust."
"But what if it's true... If I tell others, they will kill you." Sang Zhi whispered.
The corners of Ye Qianning's mouth twitched a few times. She took a deep breath and told herself not to be angry. The old-fashioned boy was also worried about her. Don't be angry, don't be angry!
"You'd better take care of yourself. I'm telling you, if anyone wants your eyes again in the future, remember not to give them to anyone."
Sang Zhi raised his eyes: "My eyes?"
"Yes, as long as you don't give it to them, they won't dare to touch you, but if you give it to them, you will definitely die."
"Why?" Sang Zhi was puzzled.
He can't see colors, why do we need his eyes?
"They say that there is a map of Penglai Mountain hidden in your eyes." Ye Qianning did not hide it from him.
Sang Zhi was stunned and raised his hand to touch his eyes, unable to believe it: "How can a map be hidden in my eyes?"
"I'm not very clear about the details. Before I left the palace, Concubine Yuan's senior brother asked to see the emperor. I guess he told him about this matter. Your father should know about it by now. When you return to the palace, his attitude towards you will definitely change, which is a good thing for you."
"Did the emperor believe it?"
"Whether it's true or not, Mount Penglai has always been a mystery. I don't know where the news of your eyes came from. In short, when you return to the palace, don't believe anyone who tries to trick you into leaving the palace," Ye Qianning warned.
Sang Zhi was silent for a moment. The sudden news made him a little overwhelmed for a moment.
"Don't be afraid. Even if the news gets out, as long as you stay within the palace, no one can do anything to you."
