Chapter 172 The Hidden Staff of the Prince in the Cold Palace 18
In the dim room, an old doctor placed his hand on the haggard woman's hand and kept shaking his head.
Qin Yu'an's fingertips were cold and his body froze in place.
"How is it?" A hoarse voice sounded beside Qin Yu'an.
The man was dressed in black, with a slender figure and a black mask covering his face, leaving only a pair of black eyes, calm and peaceful.
The old doctor put away the white handkerchief, stood up and shook his head, "It's too late, too late, stay with me longer..."
Qin Yu'an grabbed his sleeve and asked him, "What is the disease?"
"Too many, too many to describe. I am sick all over. If I take good care of myself, I may be able to live longer. This winter is too cold..."
After saying that, the old doctor lifted the curtain and walked out.
There were only three people breathing in the room, one of whom was breathing heavily and was ill.
Qin Yu'an squatted in front of the couch, held the woman's hand and placed it on the side of his face.
......
Ling Si left some time for the mother and son, and went to the outer room to put a bag of silver on the cabinet.
The old doctor just took a look and continued to pick up medicine from the winnowing basket.
The young man stood aside with his arms folded. There was a fine snow falling outside. It was very cold and no snow was piling up.
After an unknown amount of time, the old doctor also went to rest, leaving a small lamp on in the main hall, as if he had special trust in the young man.
The footsteps disturbed the black-clad man's nap. Qin Yu'an's body stiffened slightly and he never recovered.
He walked up to the man and looked up at him. His brown pupils were filled with death and calmness. His voice was hoarse: "What do you need me to do?"
"Take that seat." The man in black went straight to the point.
The two of them knew each other tacitly about the position. Qin Yu'an didn't know why the other party wanted to find a prince who was completely ignored, but he seized it, and the opportunity was his.
He wanted to make Su Nian free, truly free.
Even if a woman favored by the emperor fell out of favor, she was not qualified to leave the palace. It was this disgusting favor, like alms, that trapped Su Nian for his whole life.
He is also a murderer.
"I have another request," Qin Yu'an said, "My mother needs to be buried."
The man in black's voice was of an indeterminate gender: "There is already a substitute in the palace. You know what to do. I will find a piece of land in the suburbs."
"it is good."
The moves Qin Yu'an practiced were limited to improving his physical fitness; he had no internal strength yet.
The man in black put his arm around his back and brought him back to the palace. In his eyes, the heavily guarded Forbidden City seemed like an uninhabited place.
He could see clearly from above the palace wall how the man in black nimbly dodged the layers of patrols and brought him back to the ground.
The cold air was about to freeze out his sense of smell, but he could still smell the cold fragrance on that person, and those eyes were as cold as he was.
A familiar yet strange feeling filled my heart, and I tightened my grip on the man in black, with no thoughts in my mind.
"I'll tell you the location when I bury you." The cold night light penetrated his black hair. Qin Yu'an looked at him and listened to what he said. "I'll come to check on your studies after a while."
Before leaving, the man added: "Someone will come to protect you."
The man in black walked on the moonlight and disappeared into the dilapidated courtyard.
......
"Shh!"
A basin of ice water woke him up.
Before the man regained consciousness, he heard a clear voice: "What's your name?"
He answered truthfully: "Pei Ji."
The owner of the voice asked, "How about a deal?"
"No big deal." The man still insisted.
The wound on his shoulder blade was crushed, and Pei Ji's face turned pale, "...What deal?"
"I need you to protect someone." Ling Si paused, "Be loyal to him."
"Aren't you afraid that I will kill him?" Pei Ji looked at the harmless young man and curled his lips. The way he was planning was really annoying. It made people want to strip off his clothes, bully him severely, make him cry, beg for mercy, and surrender.
Pei Ji: “Conditions.”
"The Prime Minister will die."
Pei Ji's knees were half bent, and his upper body was supported by the iron chains. The young man squatted down to look at him at eye level, holding a black pill in his hand. It was very small and could not be seen clearly without careful observation.
Pei Ji said: "I am not interested in his death. I will kill him, but the dead souls of the Pei family need an explanation."
Pei Ji knew that the young man had investigated his background thoroughly. In his impression, he was just a fallen nobleman. Now it seemed that he still had a trick up his sleeve.
Even he had to admire this man's forbearance of humiliation. The matter of the emperor's marriage was a hot topic, and everyone in the capital knew that the prince of Yongning was forcing a marriage, which made the Marquis of Yongchuan empty his backyard just for one person.
"can."
Ling Si agreed and pushed the black pill on his finger forward, "Come to me for the antidote once a month, or your intestines will burst."
Pei Ji lowered his eyes, slightly opened his lips, and took the medicine in. The cool touch also wrapped around the white color.
The young man frowned slightly. Perhaps it was because he had been in the dungeon for too long, there was a hint of cold death about him.
The tip of the tongue sucked, and the almost provocative action did not make the young man angry, until the fingertips were entangled, Ling Si's expression changed slightly, and he kicked him.
"Cough-cough-"
After coughing, a hoarse laugh came out of Pei Ji's throat, as if to dispel all the depression of the past few days.
Ling Si wiped his fingers slowly, regaining his calm look, with the corners of his eyes raised.
"Pleasant to work with."
Pei Ji gave the same answer, and was shaken by his smile, and stood up again, "I have a question, you asked me to be loyal to him. What if he asked me to kill you?"
The young man left without stopping, his voice echoing in the empty cell: "If you have that ability."
