Chapter 19: Palace Road
Prince Jing’s wolf-like eyes.
Penetrating through the layers of people.
Like two invisible hooks.
Locked firmly on Ling Zixia.
Ling Zixia subconsciously took a step back.
Her face showed extreme horror.
It's like a little white rabbit being targeted by its natural enemy.
The steward and guards of Prince Jing's mansion also noticed something strange about their master.
They followed Prince Jing's gaze.
All I saw was a small figure dressed in gorgeous clothes, but looking extremely timid.
"My Lord, how do you feel?"
The steward asked cautiously.
Prince Jing did not answer.
His eyes still did not leave Ling Zixia.
That look was full of inquiry and confusion.
And a very subtle dependence that even he himself was not aware of.
Like a lone wolf about to freeze to death in the snow.
Suddenly I saw a warm bonfire.
"Call her over."
Prince Jing finally spoke.
His voice was a little hoarse because he had just been sick.
But it carries an unquestionable royal majesty.
The steward of Prince Jing's Mansion was stunned for a moment.
He glanced at Ling Zixia.
He looked at Eunuch Liu, whose face was pale.
Eunuch Liu's heart skipped a beat.
He quickly took a step forward.
He bowed to Prince Jing and said.
"In reply to Your Majesty, this is Miss Ling from the Prime Minister's Residence."
"The Queen summoned me to the palace."
"If we delay the time, I'm afraid..."
He moved out of Queens.
I hope this living devil will have some scruples.
Prince Jing frowned slightly.
A hint of impatience flashed in his dark eyes.
"I only have one question for you."
His voice grew cold.
"What was that drink you just gave me?"
Eunuch Liu's body trembled.
He glanced at Ling Zixia secretly.
Then he answered with a stiff upper lip.
"Your Highness, it is... it is the immortal tea gifted by the Empress."
"Immortal tea?"
Prince Jing's mouth curled up in a mocking arc.
He slowly sat up from the ground.
Two guards rushed forward to steady him.
He felt an unprecedented warm and powerful heat in his body.
That power was repairing his meridians that were damaged by the cold.
This feeling.
He hadn't experienced this in a full decade.
His gaze fell back on Ling Zixia again.
Those eyes were filled with undisguised scrutiny.
"You, come here."
He ordered Ling Zixia.
Ling Zixia's body shook even more violently.
She looked at Eunuch Liu for help.
Eunuch Liu buried his head even lower.
Between the Queen's decree and Prince Jing's order.
He chose to temporarily succumb to the latter.
Because the queen would at most make him lose his head.
And this living devil.
But there are plenty of ways to make his life worse than death.
Ling Zixia knew she had no choice.
She could only do it under the gaze of everyone.
Take small steps.
Step by step, he walked towards the devil-like man.
Each step she took was extremely slow.
Full of fear and reluctance.
Just as she was about to walk in front of Prince Jing.
There was a subtle, inhuman humming sound.
Suddenly, it came from the palace wall not far above her head.
The sound was very small.
Most of the people present didn't notice.
But Ling Zixia's hearing was enhanced by the "ghost needle grass" tea.
But he captured the sound clearly.
That is the sound of bees flapping their wings.
And these are no ordinary bees.
It is the "golden-ringed hornet" raised in the imperial garden of the palace, specifically for pollinating exotic flowers and plants.
This wasp is huge.
Has a bad temper.
The tail sting is highly poisonous.
Once stung.
Mild symptoms include redness, swelling and fever.
In severe cases, the patient may die on the spot.
Ling Zixia's heart was filled with alarm.
She understood immediately.
The "gift" Li Ruolan prepared for her.
It's not just the palace dress that is stained with the color of "Kuhunsan".
There is an even more sinister back-up plan.
Her nostrils flared slightly.
An extremely faint, slightly sweet fragrance.
It came from the pair of plump and round South Sea pearl earrings on her earlobes.
The fragrance was perfectly masked by the scent of the "nourishing fragrance" on her body.
But at this moment, with the enhanced sense of smell.
But it appears extremely clear.
That's royal jelly.
Moreover, it is a specially processed royal jelly with extremely high concentration.
This stuff is harmless to humans.
But it is the most deadly bait to attract the "Golden Ringed Hornet".
If she only took a few more steps forward.
Go to an area where the sun can reach directly.
Those poisonous bees attracted by royal jelly.
It will be like crazy.
Think of her as a mobile beehive.
Launch the most violent attack on her.
He was stung to death by a poisonous bee at the gate of the palace.
This is a perfect way to die that can be attributed to an "accident".
What a series of vicious schemes.
A hint of cold murderous intent flashed in Ling Zixia's eyes.
Her steps stopped "in fear."
She stood five steps away from Prince Jing.
His body shook like a sieve in the wind.
"Your Majesty, please spare my life..."
There was a cry in her voice.
It looks extremely pitiful.
Prince Jing looked at her like this.
His brows furrowed even more tightly.
"I won't eat you."
His voice was filled with impatience.
"come over."
Ling Zixia seemed to be frightened.
She shook her head violently.
Tears are about to fall.
As she was shaking her head.
Her beautiful black hair.
It swayed gently with her movements.
A strand of hair.
At a very natural angle.
He gently brushed across the pearl earring on her left earlobe.
In her fine hair.
The moment of contact with that plump pearl.
An invisible force.
Along the hair.
Silently, he entered the earring that concealed murderous intent.
The tiny amount of specially treated royal jelly inside the earrings.
Its pheromones originally had a fatal attraction to bee colonies.
It was completely reversed at this moment.
It starts with a kind of "bait".
It has become an "insect repellent" that causes extreme disgust and fear in all bees.
The process is silent.
So fast that it was beyond everyone's perception.
The golden-ringed hornets that were originally ready to move on the palace wall.
Suddenly it seemed like it had encountered some natural enemy.
They made a noisy buzzing sound.
Then he didn't even look back.
He fled in panic towards the Imperial Garden.
A deadly crisis is about to break out.
Ling Zixia just shook her head and said that.
It was dissolved invisibly.
Prince Jing had no idea that he had just brushed shoulders with death.
He just felt that the woman in front of him was as timid as a mouse.
Procrastinate.
His impatience had reached its peak.
He stood up with the help of the guards.
He took long strides.
He walked towards Ling Zixia in person.
His tall figure.
Like a moving mountain.
It brought Ling Zixia a huge sense of oppression.
He stopped in front of her.
Looking down at her.
He stretched out his hand.
It was a hand with distinct joints and long, slender knuckles.
It is also a hand that can easily break the enemy's neck.
That hand.
Slowly.
He stretched out his hand towards Ling Zixia's tearful face.
Eunuch Liu's heart was about to jump out of his throat.
The steward and guards of Prince Jing's mansion were so frightened that they held their breath.
Everyone thought so.
This moody living devil.
The next moment he was going to kill this poor woman.
However.
The hand did not fall on her face.
It stopped in mid-air.
Then.
In an extremely slow and clumsy manner that he himself was not even aware of.
Gently.
He took off the one on her right earlobe.
He has been feeling a bit annoyed since the beginning.
Pearl earrings.
