Chapter 19
"What happened?" Zhou Xuanqing asked lightly, looking at Zhou Erlan in confusion.
"Sister, I just went to see that witch, but she asked you to go." Zhou Erlan said briefly, then looked at Zhou Xuanqing.
Zhou Xuanqing frowned when he heard this, and asked in confusion: "Why did you call me?"
"I don't know. Just knock on the door and they'll tell you to come in." Zhou Erlan shook her head and said obediently.
"Then... I'll go there." After Zhou Xuanqing said that, he walked in to find a hairpin to tie up his hair.
"Sister, let's go together." Zhou Erlan said, looking at Mu Tou who had an innocent and confused face. Thinking about what he had just said, she raised her foot and kicked him again.
Seeing this, Tang Mitang yawned, grabbed the door and said, "Young Master and Young Lady can go together, I won't join in the fun..."
"If you don't want to, you have to go with me to treat the snake." Song Henian grabbed her door and said.
"Ah? Treat snakes? I can treat people, but not snakes..." Tang Mitang said as he tried to close the door, but he couldn't pull it open.
I'm speechless... I wouldn't dare to deal with a soft creature like a snake.
"I believe you can do it!" Song Henian said with a grin.
Tang Mitang rolled her eyes silently, resigned herself to her fate, straightened her hair, and tied it into a high ponytail.
He followed Zhou Xuanqing, taking steps with his short legs, panting.
You believe me, but I don’t!
A bunch of bad guys...
When they arrived in front of the wooden house, Mu Tou and Tang Mi Tang circled around it in amazement, commenting on it.
“It’s so well hidden!”
"This wood is not bad either, it seems to be more waterproof than you!"
"Can this wood compare to this wood? But this wood is quite crisp when knocked!"
"Suitable for seclusion~"
…
The two of them walked back unsteadily with their arms folded, and were then grabbed by Zhou Xuanqing.
"Don't move around."
"Okay, miss!" Tang Mitang and Mu Tou had a rare tacit understanding. After saying that, they stood behind Zhou Xuan.
Zhou Erlan took a step forward and shouted towards the wooden house: "Old lady! My sister is here! Come out quickly!"
Crunch~
The door was opened, and the old lady, still wearing the same clothes as before, walked out step by step with a cane.
A red snake was wrapped around her crutch, with a piece of gauze wrapped around the middle, and two black eyes stared forward.
The old lady walked up to Zhou Xuan and looked up at her.
When Zhou Xuanqing saw the old lady's face, he was so scared that he took a step back. There actually was such a person.
The old lady lowered the brim of her hat, bent her legs forward and knelt on the ground with the help of a cane.
"I am here to see the Emperor!"
"Please stand up quickly." Zhou Xuanqing said, and walked forward to hold the old lady's arm and help her up. She couldn't bear to kneel down.
The others were all confused. They hadn't seen the old lady's face, and were a little surprised to hear that the old lady knew Zhou Xuanqing's identity. They were even more surprised to see Zhou Xuanqing being so respectful.
"Your Majesty, you already know the dream I gave you, why haven't you..."
"Old lady, I won't do that if it can't be cut or ruptured." Zhou Xuanqing said with a smile, and her hand touched the crutch. The red snake silently coiled around her arm.
Everyone was confused when they heard what the two said, and they were even more shocked and worried when they saw the snake crawling onto Zhou Xuanqing's arm.
Zhou Erlan's hand had already reached for his sword, and Song Henian slowly opened his folding fan, staring at the snake nervously.
"I am too narrow-minded." The old lady said, caught the snake and patted its head.
These guys are not friendly at all.
Zhou Xuanqing smiled lightly, nodded, and asked, "The dust blown in by the strong wind last night was poisonous. I wonder if the old lady could tell me something about it?"
"Of course. In the past few months, someone has been doing something unspeakable in the mountains. Your Majesty can walk north and you will know where the dust comes from." The old lady answered respectfully.
"Okay, I wonder what else the old lady brought me here for?" Zhou Xuanqing's expression did not change. He looked at the old lady, but his eyes were fixed on the peacock totem embroidered on the edge of her hat.
The old lady raised her head hesitantly, sighed, and said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, I need half a bowl of your blood to save my life."
"Help?" Zhou Xuanqing frowned and asked in confusion.
The old lady nodded and rubbed her hands on her cane twice.
"This matter cannot be discussed for the time being, but the Emperor will know when he heads north."
"Okay." Zhou Xuanqing didn't ask any more questions and nodded decisively.
"Then Your Majesty, please follow me." After the old lady said this, she turned and walked towards the wooden house.
"Royal sister..." Zhou Erlan changed her tone with concern.
"Wait here." Zhou Xuanqing said, then bent down and followed the old lady in.
Everyone had to wait outside. Zhou Erlan plucked a piece of grass and said that the old lady wanted to hurt the imperial sister.
Tang Mitang folded her arms in thought. She only learned about Zhou Xuanqing's blood's ability to cure all poisons after becoming Tang Mi. Perhaps even Cheng Zixuan didn't know. Was this the character's hidden plot?
So Zhou Xuanqing definitely didn't die from the poison Zhou Erlan gave her; there must be something else going on. The ending of the novel is that Zhou Xuanqing drinks the poisoned wine handed to her by her brother and collapses on the ground in tears, while Zhou Erlan walks towards the main hall in his dragon robe.
Zhou Xuanqing is never mentioned again, and the story ends here. Did Zhou Xuanqing survive? Will there be a second book called "The Revenge of the Imperial Sister"?
Hehe...Okay, she's so boring~
The old lady wants Zhou Xuanqing's blood to save her life. Could she be the snake in a certain story that becomes younger by drinking human blood?
While he was daydreaming, Zhou Xuanqing walked out with a pale face and a red handkerchief tied on his hand.
Zhou Erlan rushed over faster than anyone else, hugged Zhou Xuanqing, and said with heartache and anger: "How big a bowl did you use? How did you drain my royal sister dry?"
"I'm fine, let's go..." Zhou Xuanqing said, and closed his eyes gently.
Zhou Erlan hugged her distressedly and glanced at the wooden house. If anything happened to his sister, he would burn this shabby place down.
This old lady actually tricked her royal sister into bleeding!
Tang Mitang, who had originally wanted to show off and win favor by rushing over to help Zhou Xuanqing, withdrew her hand awkwardly and wiped it on her clothes.
Eliminate!
No wonder there are no romances in this book! These two siblings are killing each other! Look at how embarrassed Song Henian is! It's so embarrassing! No wonder these two are both single and career-focused!
One only knows how to protect his brother and the country. The other only knows how to rebel against his sister and seize the throne. It would be great if they could have a love line!
