Chapter 448 Ten Thousand Swords
After receiving the Dragon Blood Vine, Liu Yiyi spent a long time studying it.
They were afraid there might be something wrong with the dragon blood vine.
In the evening, she was going to take Sun Miaomiao to the mortuary of Qianniao Si to learn.
When Sun Miaomiao opened her toolbox and took out the tools inside.
Suddenly, I discovered a letter and a cloth bag at the bottom of my toolbox.
She took out the letter, which was addressed to the princess.
Sun Miaomiao quickly handed the letter to Liu Yiyi.
Then he opened the cloth bag.
"Dragon Blood Vine?"
Liu Yiyi took the Dragon Blood Vine, also looking puzzled.
After the two finished their lessons for the day.
Liu Yiyi returned to the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion.
Qin Jinzhi opened the letter, which was written in Sun Mingru's own handwriting.
The text details how the Crown Prince ordered someone to deliver the Dragon Blood Vine.
This dragon blood vine had been soaked in a secret medicine, and he deciphered several of its secrets.
What Bai Ri asked Liu Yiyi to take back was the Sun family's Dragon Blood Vine.
The cloth bag contained the dragon blood vine sent by the prince.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yiyi immediately took the dragon blood vine and returned to her room.
Sure enough, Qin Jinzhi had indeed taken the heart-protecting pill made from the dragon blood vine.
She can't save him in a short time.
This was soaked in eighteen kinds of medicine.
She only solved a few of them.
The crown prince kept a close eye on the officials in the court, but he was completely unprepared for the young ladies in their households.
These women are now found throughout the government and the country.
The Inspection Division is a hot potato.
Sun Miaomiao's confidence in going to the Inspection Department can be attributed not only to her own ideas, but also to Sun Mingru's support. This is evident from the fact that even though he was conservative, he was willing to break with tradition and seek help from the Thousand Birds Department, showing how much Sun Mingru loved his daughter.
He couldn't possibly put his daughter in danger.
The father and daughter boarded Qin Jinzhi's boat long ago.
Qin Jinzhi walked towards the Crown Prince, "Why is there no originality at all? Liu Yiyi's reputation as a divine doctor is not something I made up. Why would you poison her in front of her?"
The Crown Prince suddenly attacked Qin Jinzhi.
He transformed his hand into a claw and charged straight at Qin Jinzhi's throat.
Lark shouted, "Princess, watch out!"
Qin Jinzhi did not dodge, but punched the prince's arm.
Her neck was slashed open, and the prince's arm hung limply at his sides.
Qin Jinzhi shook her neck indifferently.
The prince clutched his arm, "You actually risked having my throat slit and my arm severed! You're insane!"
Qin Jinzhi clenched her fist again.
"Our sect's legacy is all about offense, no defense, making us unparalleled in the world."
Qin Jinzhi leaped up again.
The prince was highly skilled in martial arts, and Xiao Can wanted to help him when he saw this.
Yun Que glared at him with murderous intent. "Anyone who dares to obstruct the princess shall die."
Xiao Can immediately attacked Yun Que.
Just after Xiao Can was kicked away by Yun Que.
The crown prince's kneecap was shattered by Qin Jinzhi's kick, and he fell to the ground.
Just as Qin Jinzhi was walking towards him.
A voice, trembling with tears, came anxiously.
"Big sister!!!"
Xiao Piao pounced at Qin Jinzhi's feet.
"Sister! I beg you! Spare Father's life!"
Qin Jinzhi looked down at Xiao Piao and said after a moment, "Qinghe, you shouldn't have come back."
Xiao Piao was stunned, tears streaming down her face, and she hugged Qin Jinzhi's leg.
"Sister, I beg you! For the sake of me stealing the orchid grass for you, spare Father's life, and we can never return to the capital! Sister, Qinghe begs you!"
The Crown Prince glared at Xiao Piao with eyes wide with rage, "So it was you, you traitorous beast! No wonder she was able to cure the poison!"
Qin Jinzhi laughed mockingly after hearing this, "Uncle, you really are hopelessly stupid, Yun Que."
Yun Que stepped forward and presented Qin Jinzhi with a brocade box from the cloth bag at her waist.
Qin Jinzhi opened the brocade box and took out the contents.
It is a complete orchid grass.
Xiao Piao was taken aback. "Sister, you didn't take the Orchid Grass?"
The Crown Prince looked at Qin Jinzhi in disbelief after hearing this.
Qin Jinzhi examined the orchid grass closely.
Then, under the watchful eyes of the others, he rubbed the orchid grass into ash in his hands.
Xiao Piao cried out anxiously, "Sister! What are you doing! There is now a single orchid in the world!"
Qin Jinzhi squatted down in front of Xiao Piao, "Because your father burned all the other orchids, right, Qinghe?"
She chuckled softly, "I will petition for you to return to Lingnan and Qinghe, and not to come back to the capital, or I will kill you."
Qin Jinzhi got up and walked towards the Crown Prince, while Xiao Piao knelt down and hugged Qin Jinzhi's feet.
"Sister! Sister! I'll do anything for you! Please! Spare Father's life!"
Yun Que immediately stepped forward and pulled Xiao Piao away.
Xiao Piao was no match for Yun Que and was held back by Yun Que, unable to move.
Qin Jinzhi walked up to the Crown Prince and said to the guards behind her, "Pull him up."
The prince's knees had been shattered by Qin Jinzhi's kicks.
As he was being pulled up, the prince was still saying, "Impossible, impossible!"
Qin Jinzhi drew the soft sword from her waist and slowly stabbed it into the prince's abdomen.
"When my father died, he was pierced by a thousand arrows; there wasn't a single patch of good flesh on his body. Tell me, where was the arrow that ultimately took his life? Here? Or here? Or here?"
Qin Jinzhi drew her sword and then thrust it in again.
The Crown Prince's wails echoed throughout the Eastern Palace.
Xiao Piao cried out, "Father!"
Blood was flowing from the prince's mouth as he stared intently at Qin Jinzhi.
You lied to everyone!
He looked up to the sky in deep resentment, wailing incessantly.
Qin Jinzhi, however, seemed to be doing something very serious.
He pierced each sword with utmost care.
With his last breath, the Crown Prince looked at Qin Jinzhi.
"You are a monster."
Upon hearing his words, Qin Jinzhi drew her sword.
“The imperial power breeds monsters.”
The prince seemed to have bled out of his body.
He stared at Qin Jinzhi with his eyes wide open, his death unfulfilled.
Qin Jinzhi met his lifeless eyes.
"How could he have died before even reaching ten thousand swords?"
Xiao Can and Xiao Piao immediately wailed, "Father!"
Qin Jinzhi frowned at the noise.
She walked over to Xiao Can's side.
Xiao Can roared, "You beast! You actually murdered the emperor! Traitorous subject, you shall die a horrible death!"
Qin Jinzhi's sword tip lightly grazed Xiao Can's neck.
There was no more sound.
Xiao Piao cried out, "Brother!"
At that moment, a midwife walked over with a smile on her face.
It was as if they hadn't seen the tragedy that had occurred here.
"Congratulations, Princess! Consort Shen has given birth to a little grandson!"
Qin Jinzhi laughed loudly and said, "Reward!"
Yun Que pulled Xiao Piao out of the courtyard.
The group walked outside.
Suddenly, a large number of archers appeared from the shadows.
However, their target was not the living.
Instead, it was the corpse on the ground.
Xiao Chengqian's body resembled a hedgehog.
Qin Jinzhi turned around and said, "Don't worry, your old lover will be reunited with you soon."
She looked at the lark, "Kill them all."
With a whistle from Yun Que, the Crimson Dragon Guards appeared.
All the archers were killed.
On the corpse, there was also a token bearing the insignia of the Chu state.
Qin Jinzhi knocked Xiao Piao unconscious with a single chop to the neck, who was already sobbing uncontrollably.
“Look at her.”
Yun Que picked up Xiao Piao and asked, "Princess, shall we return to the palace?"
Qin Jinzhi took out the dragon blood vine that had been soaked in eighteen kinds of secret medicines.
"No, go to the palace."
