The Crown Princess is reborn, and the three treasures compete to burn the family tree

Chapter 16 Is this what it feels like to be in my mother’s arms?

By the time Jiang Li reacted, she had already caught Chu Mingzhao.

With his sweet and soft daughter in his arms, as tender as a cloud, Jiang Li's limbs were so stiff that he didn't know what to do.

"Princess, please catch me!"

Chu Mingzhao took advantage of the fact that Jiang Li didn't react and put his little hands around her neck, rubbing her cheek carefully like a cat.

Is this what it feels like to be in a mother’s arms?

I blurted out, "Just like my mother!"

With the word "mother", Jiang Li seemed to wake up from a big dream.

Chu Mingzhao was not her daughter, her child was drowned after birth.

She suppressed the aching pain in her heart, put Chu Mingzhao down, and forced herself to put on her usual gentle smile.

"Why is the princess here?"

And there was no visiting card, I came secretly.

Chu Mingzhao looked at Jiang Li with some regret on her little face. She still wanted Jiang Li to hold her for a while longer.

But Jiang Li's whole body was filled with resistance to her.

Chu Mingzhao was not discouraged. He still smiled and even seemed to be justified.

"Because I want to see you, Princess, that's why I'm here!"

"Nonsense."

Jiang Li's face darkened. Chu Mingzhao was not in good health, so how could he go wherever he wanted?

Moreover, he came to the Yongning Marquis Mansion, a filthy and foul place.

"I'll take you home."

"do not want!"

Chu Mingzhao shook his head quickly, walked forward and held Jiang Li's hand, with an expression of aggrieved expression on his face.

"Please don't send me back, Princess. The palace is not good at all. No one plays with me, and my father doesn't care about me. I just want to stay with you."

"Crack!"

The tiles on the roof suddenly broke. Jiang Li frowned and immediately protected Chu Mingzhao behind him.

Another uninvited guest!

"Meow! Meow!"

The cat's voice faded away, and the secret guard appeared outside the window like a ghost.

"Princess, Princess, it's a cat."

"cat?"

Jiang Li's eyes flashed, and without asking any further questions, she just looked at Chu Mingzhao stubbornly.

"Princess, it is already dusk, please return home."

Chu Mingzhao’s safety is the most important thing.

"Okay! Princess, I won't hide it from you! In fact, I don't just want to see you!"

Chu Mingzhao let out a long sigh and looked at the treasure bag on Jiang Li’s chest.

"I want the Golden Lotus of the East China Sea."

Jiang Li was silent for a while, "What does the princess need the East Sea Golden Lotus for?"

Moreover, how could Chu Mingzhao know the Golden Lotus of the East China Sea?

"I'm poisoned, and the Golden Lotus of the East China Sea can alleviate the pain when the poison takes effect."

Chu Mingzhao curled his lips and sighed again.

"It's a pity that the Golden Lotus of the East Sea is too rare, and there are only a few petals in the palace."

And Jiang Li actually had a whole flower.

Jiang Li had a complicated expression. In her previous life, she heard that Chu Mingzhao had a frail body and was almost dependent on medicine.

It was really unexpected that she was poisoned.

I heard that Chu Mingzhao's body was getting weaker when she died. Didn't she detoxify him?

"What kind of poison have you been poisoned by? How can you completely detoxify it?"

"My poison has no name. My father said that I need to find my biological mother to completely cure it, but... I'm afraid my biological mother doesn't care whether I live or die. She abandoned me when I was born."

Chu Mingzhao shrugged, looking indifferent.

Back then, she was the only one who survived among the hundreds of thousands of drug testers in Medicine Valley. The poison in her body was not just one kind.

If you want to save her, you need a blood transfusion.

Seeing Chu Mingzhao's indifferent expression, Jiang Li felt a pain in his heart.

She squatted down and looked at Chu Mingzhao with serious eyes.

"How many Golden Lotuses of the East China Sea do you need?"

"Each flower of the Golden Lotus of the East China Sea has only nine petals, and I need one petal each time I use it as medicine. The onset of my poison is also irregular, but it will basically occur once every three months. The palace has enough for me to use five times."

Chu Mingzhao felt a little ashamed when Jiang Li looked at him carefully. It was a surprise for him to know that Jiang Li had the Golden Lotus of the East China Sea.

It's just because of her medical physique, and her sensitivity to medicinal materials is too strong.

She was afraid that Jiang Li would be embarrassed, thinking that she was forcing her to hand over the Golden Lotus of the East China Sea, so she hurried to explain.

"Princess, I don't want your Golden Lotus of the East China Sea. I just want to ask you... can you tell me the origin of your Golden Lotus of the East China Sea?"

"Don't tell me for free, I will pay you, whether you want gold or silver, as long as the Crown Princess wants it, I will give you everything I can!"

Afraid that Jiang Li would refuse, she quickly took out a jade pendant and handed it to Jiang Li solemnly.

"Princess, I will guarantee you as Princess Yong!"

Jiang Li confiscated the jade pendant. She took out the brocade pouch directly, took out a petal, put the remaining flowers back into the sachet, and handed the sachet to Chu Mingzhao.

"The Crown Princess..."

Seeing Chu Mingzhao flattered, Jiang Li touched the top of his head.

“Well, that’s the reward I want.”

"what?"

Chu Mingzhao didn't react in time. He felt a slight pain in the back of his neck and his consciousness fell into darkness.

"The princess!"

The secret guard suddenly appeared and glared at Jiang Li.

"Princess, what did you do to the princess?"

"She just fell asleep."

Jiang Li held the unconscious Chu Mingzhao in his arms with a gentle look.

Looking at Chu Mingzhao's eyes that were similar to hers, she felt like she was seeing her own flesh and blood.

If those three children were still alive, they would be as old as Chu Mingzhao.

Unfortunately, Chu Mingzhao is Chu Mingzhao, not her child.

This golden lotus of the East China Sea could be considered as her selfish apology.

She walked to the window and the smile disappeared from her face when she looked at the murderous secret guards.

"Take the princess back and don't let her come again."

The secret guard took Chu Mingzhao from Jiang Li and confirmed that she was indeed unconscious.

He looked at Jiang Li again and quickly left the Yongning Marquis Mansion.

The pharmacy fell silent. Jiang Li slowly put away the remaining petal before speaking again.

"Have you seen enough, sir?"

The room was empty and no one responded.

"You're not coming out?"

Jiang Li was not angry either, "In ten breaths, the poison will spread to your heart."

"call out!"

The sword flashed, Jiang Li dodged to the side, turned around with the blade in his left hand and stabbed the attacker.

At such a close distance, even if the opponent is wearing armor, he will still have to pay the price.

"Humph!"

A cold and disdainful sneer.

The man did not retreat, but reversed his wrist and blocked the knife with the hilt of his sword.

Jiang Li was forced to let go, but she was not in a hurry. She raised her hand and pulled out the hairpins on her bun, then rushed towards the other party.

"Clang clang clang!"

The hilt of the sword knocked off the hairpins, and another strange fragrance came over me.

The man quickly retreated a few steps and put some distance between himself and Jiang Li.

Jiang Li's cold voice suddenly sounded, "What does Prince Yong want to do?"
