Kunshan Jade Dies
"You...what's wrong with you?" Luo Jin hurried to Jiang Mo's side and supported him, "Heart disease? Epilepsy?"
Jiang Mo just wanted to say something, but he spit out a mouthful of blood, and his face suddenly turned pale.
"Man Yue...you...you are not a werewolf?"
"..."
"Oh, that's not right. Werewolves will be stronger on a full moon night. You seem to be sick. Do you want to help me get a doctor?"
"..."
Jiang Mo gritted his teeth and squeezed out two words, "No..."
Luo Jin just reacted. Jiang Mo suddenly had a seizure and he couldn't control her. She could leave.
She was suddenly free and a little uncomfortable for a while.
"You...are you going to die..." Luo Jin asked worriedly.
"No..."
"Oh... Then I'll leave?"
"Well..."
"You won't throw a knife at me, will you?"
"I can't..."
She walked towards the door tentatively, and turned back to see that Jiang Mo didn't catch up with her. He was vomiting blood again. Although she felt a little reluctant, she still pulled the bolt and opened the gate.
A group of people in officers' uniforms appeared at the door and ran around. She saw someone not far away reporting to a man in a cloak, "Your Highness, there is nothing here... It's time to search there!"
"Well, go ahead!"
"Yes!"
Luo Jin slammed the door.
It was Chai Qi!
She was not afraid of Jiang Mo. Although Jiang Mo caught her, he did not do anything to hurt her.
But she was afraid of Chai Qi.
If Jiang Mo was discovered by Chai Qi at this time, he would not be able to resist. Would he be caught? But Jiang Mo's status in Xiyuan Kingdom is not high. Will Xiyuan just give up on him?
Considering this situation, Chai Qi might just kill him directly. After all, Jiang Mo saved her life, and she didn't want him to die like this.
If she didn't get involved, at least he could live until New Year's Eve, even if he ended up dying at the hands of Jiang Ge.
Luo Jin ran back to the house. Jiang Mo looked up at her and said weakly, "Yes... Chai Qi."
"Yes."
"Luck... is really bad." He sighed lightly, but there was no fear at all, and even his eyes were as calm as water.
"If you are caught by him now, he will kill you, right?" Luo Jin whispered.
"Yeah."
"Aren't you afraid?"
"No."
Luo Jin was speechless. She could see that this man was really not afraid of death.
"Come with me!"
Luo Jin helped Jiang Mo up and let him lie in the straw pile. She took out a piece of clothing from the cupboard and covered him with it. After thinking for a while, she reached out to take off his crown and ruffled his hair a few times.
She ruffled her own hair as well and smeared a handful of ash on her face.
At this time, the door was pushed open from the outside. She didn't fasten the bolt and the door opened all of a sudden.
"Your Highness, we've arrived at this house. It seems... there is a bloody smell, Your Highness, be careful!"
A woman's crying voice came from the room, "Husband, you can't die... Why do you keep vomiting blood, wuwu... I'm going to sell the chickens at home to buy medicine for you, you hold on!"
An officer entered the house, saw the blood on the ground, turned back and said, "It seems to be vomited blood, there are no signs of fighting."
Luo Jin covered her face and cried, "Official... My husband has tuberculosis, please save him..."
When the soldier heard the word "tuberculosis", he couldn't help but cover his nose and left the room, saying with some disgust: "Your Highness, don't go in, tuberculosis is contagious. Her husband has tuberculosis, and the family is quite poor, so it doesn't look suspicious."
Chai Qi didn't respond and walked into the room.
He walked to Luo Jin and saw that she had covered half of her face, was disheveled, and was crying sadly. The man lying on the straw pile had a pale face and his eyes were closed, obviously he was really sick.
He took out a silver coin from his pocket, handed it to Luo Jin, and said in a cold voice, "Take it to treat him."
He turned and left the house, and left the courtyard with his officers and soldiers, closing the gate.
Luo Jin looked at the silver in his hand in astonishment. He was stunned for a long time, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She guessed that Chai Qi didn't recognize Jiang Mo, and sure enough, he didn't recognize her. Although Chai Qi had seen her before, they didn't have much communication each time, so he didn't think he would have a deep impression. She kept covering her face and crying, and he didn't recognize her.
The silver that Chai Qi gave her was not small, a full one hundred taels, which was really enough for medical treatment.
Jiang Mo closed his eyes, and he didn't know when he had fainted.
Luo Jin thought it was good that he passed out, at least he wouldn't feel pain.
The moonlight was slightly cool, and after an unknown amount of time, the moon in the sky finally disappeared, and the day was about to dawn.
Luo Jin took a nap, and suddenly felt something covering her body. She opened her eyes and saw that she was covered with a piece of clothing.
Jiang Mo seemed to have fully recovered, as if what happened yesterday had never happened.
Luo Jin yawned and asked him, "What happened last night? It was so scary, I thought you were going to die. Yueyuan got sick... I've never heard of such a strange disease."
Jiang Mo lowered his head and thought for a while, then said, "This is called the Heart-Eating Dragon. It's a kind of dragonfly used to control people. The person who casts the dragonfly can take the life of the person infected by the dragon even if he is thousands of miles away. It's very useful."
Luo Jin heard that his tone was still calm, as if he was describing something that had nothing to do with him.
God damn, it works really well...
Jiang Mo continued to explain to her in a calm tone, "The Heart-Eating Dragon will be very agitated on a full moon night, especially when the sky is clear. Because it is connected to the heart veins, the person who is bitten by the dragon will feel very painful, and in serious cases, he will vomit blood."
Luo Jin: "..."
"But my situation is not bad, I faint easily, so it doesn't hurt much." Jiang Mo said again.
"..."
What do you mean the situation is okay? Is this something to be proud of?
But speaking of the Heart-Eating Dragon... is there such a setting in the novel? Just hearing the name, it is a very scary thing. How could he, a prince, be infected with such a deadly thing?
A bug lives in his heart and is restless from time to time. Just hearing it makes her scalp tingle. What's more, his life is in the hands of others, and he has to worry about his life at any time.
But how can he be so calm?
"Who gave you the dragon?" Luo Jin asked.
Jiang Mo shook his head, "I can't say this, he won't let me say it."
Luo Jin pondered for a while, "It was the Third Prince! You went against the First Prince, it definitely wasn't him. The Third Prince was the only one in Xiyuan Kingdom who had this ability, so you went against the First Prince because you were forced by the Third Prince, right?"
Jiang Mo didn't say anything.
Luo Jin didn't know what to say, should he comfort him? But he didn't seem to need anyone's comfort at all.
She coughed dryly, "Is there any way to get rid of that...heart-eating dragon?"
"Yes," Jiang Mo said, "There is a book called "The Dragon Classic", which records it."
"Where is the book?"
"Dongyuan Palace."
Luo Jin nodded, "So you came here to find the "The Dragon Classic", Liu Shu's Qinggong is very good, you saved him to let him help you steal the book. No, why don't you just exchange the princess for the "The Dragon Classic"? "
"..."
"Oh, you are afraid that the third prince will know, right?"
"..."
Jiang Mo did not answer, and stood up and said, "Let's go!"
"Huh? Where to?"
"Send you back."
Luo Jin remembered that the agreed time for the exchange had come.
But he said to send her back, not to trade her.
Jiang Mo got a carriage from somewhere, and drove Luo Jin all the way to the land temple.
This is an abandoned land temple, and the location is also remote, so few people usually come.
After getting off the car, Jiang Mo suddenly said, "Last night when I was unconscious, I seemed to hear someone calling me...husband?"
Luo Jin of course denied it, "It was a hallucination, you heard it wrong."
"Really?"
"Yes!"
After walking a distance forward, you can see the land temple. Chai Jing was standing at the door of the temple. When she saw Luo Jin, she jumped up and greeted, "Here, here!"
"Princess!" Luo Jin felt friendly when he saw Chai Jing, and ran over quickly.
Chai Heng heard the voice and walked out of the temple. He was dragging a man in his hand. The man was covered in blood. When he saw Jiang Mo, he shouted, "Fifth Prince!"
Jiang Mo took a look and said, "Did you really bring Liu Shu here?"
Chai Heng said, "It took a lot of effort. My eldest brother didn't let me bring him, so I stole him... I will definitely be scolded by my eldest brother later."
Jiang Mo looked at Liu Shu, "Broken leg?"
Chai Heng nodded, "He was tortured and endured it."
Jiang Mo took a step back with some disgust, "Forget it, don't do that..."
Chai Heng: "..."
Liu Shu was so anxious that he was about to cry, and hurriedly said, "Fifth Prince, I am loyal to you, you can't ignore me..."
Jiang Mo shook his head and said, "That's also loyalty to the prince. I don't have a good relationship with the prince."
"No... I am loyal to the Xiyuan Kingdom!"
"I'm not loyal to the West Yuan Kingdom." Jiang Mo said.
Chai Heng was speechless. How could he, a prince, say such treasonous words?
He tried to persuade him helplessly: "It was so hard to bring him out. You can't let me take him back, right? He will definitely die if he goes back. Otherwise, let the Fifth Prince... take him away?"
Chai Jing was a little confused. "Didn't you say we were going to exchange hostages? Why doesn't he want it suddenly? And let us take him back?"
Luo Jin was speechless. "It seems that the Second Prince... doesn't want to take him back either. Can you respect the hostages?"
Jiang Mo sighed, grabbed the back of Liu Shu's collar, jumped up, and disappeared from everyone's sight. He was so fast that Luo Jin couldn't even react before he could see him.
Chai Jing held Luo Jin's shoulders and looked at him carefully, "Did he bully you? Why is there blood on your body? Are you injured?"
"No, I'm not injured." Luo Jin shook his head, "It's not my blood."
"That's good, let's go, go back and change clothes, I've asked Xiaolu and the others to boil some hot water, and I've prepared some delicious food for you!"
"Delicious..."
[The princess and the second prince are so nice! ]
[Many people are completely different from the ones in the novel. Did I not understand it when I read the novel? ]
[The prince is so scary. I must avoid him next time. I don't want to see this guy again. ]
[Is the "Gu Jing" in the palace? ]
[It won't be easy. This thing can cause great harm to people. The emperor won't let anyone use it to harm others. If it were me, I would even burn it directly, right? 】
【Let's think about how to deal with Chen Changmo. Will this bastard bear a grudge against me? Could he have killed the former music envoy? Will he kill me too? Let's be careful...】
Chai Jing and Chai Heng were both stunned. When they looked at each other, they saw the doubts in each other's eyes.
"Gu Jing"?
