Upon hearing that the King of Qin was coming, Ling Xiang put away the sword in his hand, smelled the stinking sweat on his body, ordered someone to drag the King of Qin away, immediately took a bath and changed clothes, and then quickly lay back on the bed pretending to be sick.
Nangong Yu heard that Ling Xiang was applying medicine and waited patiently for a long time.
Seeing Ling Xiang lying on the bed with a pale face, Nangong Yu did not feel the slightest bit of guilt because he was the one who brought Ling Xiang's caning upon her: "How is Miss Ling?"
"Thanks to the prince, I'm not dead." Ling Xiang didn't like Nangong Yu at all.
Nangong Yu didn't care about the sarcasm in Ling Xiang's words: "I have something that I would like to ask Miss Ling for help."
Ling Xiang refused without a second thought: "Your Highness, I only have one life. Helping you withdraw the lawsuit almost cost me my life. You should find someone else to help you."
"I don't want your life, I just want some of your blood."
Ling Xiang couldn't believe her ears: "Prince, what did you say?"
Nangong Yu repeated, "This king wants your blood to save Zhenzhen."
Ling Xiang:?
She is not going to marry Nangong Yu, why should she bleed Gao Zhenzhen?
Is this damned abusive plot point unavoidable? The previous engagement was like this, and the current bloodletting is still like this!
Forget about bloodletting to treat diseases. If human blood could cure diseases, what would we need doctors for?
When she read the novel, she felt that Gao Zhenzhen let Ling Xiang's blood not to cure the disease at all, but definitely wanted to kill Ling Xiang!
"Your Majesty, do you know what you are saying?"
Nangong Yu said as a matter of course: "Zhenzhen's heart disease can only be cured by your blood, Miss Ling, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda..."
"Stop!" Ling Xiang didn't want to listen to Nangong Yu talking to himself, so she interrupted him.
"Your Highness, do you know that bleeding someone will not only damage their foundation, but in serious cases, it can even kill them?"
Nangong Yu showed great mercy: "I will compensate you. While you are treating Zhenzhen, I will find the best blood-replenishing elixir for you, and I will also give you generous compensation."
Ling Xiang flatly refused: "I cherish my life very much and will never agree to your request today. Please go back, Your Majesty."
Nangong Yu narrowed his eyes dangerously. "This king is not here to ask for your opinion. If you bleed yourself, this king will do his best to keep you safe and give you adequate compensation. But if you refuse, even if I have to tie you up, I will use you to bleed for Zhenzhen's treatment. Miss Ling, it's your choice."
As someone who has read the entire book, Ling Xiang knows too well how crazy Nangong Yu is for Gao Zhenzhen. If she doesn't come up with a good idea today, Nangong Yu will definitely do what he says and kidnap her to be used as a blood bag for Gao Zhenzhen.
Speaking of which, she also had to thank Nangong Yu. If he had just let her bleed like in the original book, without giving her any chance to refuse, or had directly kidnapped her and forced her to bleed, she was afraid that she would really have no way to save herself.
Thank God, Nangong Yu still has some humanity and she still has a chance.
She took a deep breath and raised her hand to make a stop gesture:
"Your Highness, let's put everything else aside for now. I'm extremely curious. How did you know that human blood can cure heart disease? And it can only be my blood, not anyone else's? Isn't this someone deliberately taking advantage of this opportunity to murder me?"
Nangong Yu knew Doctor Wang well. He was a timid and cautious doctor with a kind heart. He would never intentionally murder someone he had no grudges against. "The news is definitely correct. The reason why we need your blood is because you are Wang Zhenzhen."
It seems that the other party has already found a perfect excuse. Maybe Gao Zhenzhen has brainwashed Nangong Yu without even showing up.
Ling Xiang thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, are you sure that only my blood can save Miss Gao? Others' blood won't work?"
"It's just you at the moment."
Ling Xiang nodded: "It seems that given Miss Gao's current condition, she won't be able to wait for you to find other people to bleed her to save her, right?"
Nangong Yu didn't say anything, but he really thought so in his heart. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so anxious and careless about Gao Zhenzhen's heart disease.
"So, I am very important to Miss Gao now..." Ling Xiang smiled and asked,
"Your Majesty, did Miss Gao agree with you doing this?"
"She doesn't need to know."
"No, she has to know!" Ling Xiang said loudly.
"If she drank human blood without knowing it, and when she learned the truth, Your Highness, are you sure she could bear it? Would she resent you? Would she feel guilty for the rest of her life?"
"As long as she is alive and well, I will bear the rest." Nangong Yu approached Ling Xiang, his aura radiating outward, giving people an extremely strong sense of oppression.
"If you dare to tell her the truth, I will wipe out the entire Ling family one by one right in front of you!"
Ling Xiang's heart trembled, and for a moment she was really frightened by Nangong Yu's crazy words.
She knew very well that to deal with a madman, she had to be crazier than him!
Ling Xiang smiled fearlessly:
"Your Majesty, would you like to try and see if your Miss Gao will be buried with you?"
Nangong Yu suddenly attacked and grabbed Ling Xiang's throat: "No one can threaten this king."
"Now I have it." Ling Xiang didn't care. "Maybe Your Highness can try and strangle me to death and put an end to it all, huh?"
Nangong Yu slowly increased his strength, as if he really wanted to strangle Ling Xiang to death.
However, Ling Xiang seemed not to be afraid of death and continued to smile even when she was pinched.
Nangong Yu knew very well that Gao Zhenzhen's illness could not be delayed any longer, and he also asked Ling Xiang to bleed Gao Zhenzhen to save her. This was equivalent to saying that Ling Xiang's life was Gao Zhenzhen's life, and killing Ling Xiang would mean killing Gao Zhenzhen.
Ling Xiang must have figured out the interests involved, which is why he is so fearless of death.
When Ling Xiang was about to lose her breath, he finally let go of her hand. "Miss Ling is a smart person. I will give you three days to think about it. After three days, I will send someone to take you to the palace."
"Ahem..." Ling Xiang tried to calm her breathing and looked up at Nangong Yu. "In less than three days, I can answer you right now!"
Nangong Yu waited quietly for Ling Xiang's choice.
"Ahem..." Ling Xiang walked to the table, poured herself some tea to soothe her throat, and only after she had completely calmed down did she turn around and look at Nangong Yu:
"I only have one request. I want Gao Zhenzhen to tell me in person that she wants me to use my blood, or even my life, to save her. Only then will I give my blood! Otherwise, I'm not afraid of being killed!"
Gao Zhenzhen is good at pretending to be an innocent person. She wants to see, when the choice is placed in front of her, whether she will choose to give up using human blood to treat diseases and maintain her innocent image, or expose her viciousness and insist on using such vicious means to deal with herself.
Nangong Yu knew Gao Zhenzhen's character too well. If she knew the truth, she would definitely not agree to use Ling Xiang's blood to save her.
Ling Xiang's action is still an excuse for not wanting to save people!
"Ling Xiang, don't try to test my patience! For Zhenzhen, I will do anything!"
