The prince spared his life! The lady has been reborn to save you

Chu Qi said in panic,

"Please forgive me, Miss. I was with a few villagers at the time, and it is difficult for me to speak out the contents of the letter."

"Just then Miss Huaichun came out to dump the medicine residue, and I asked her to take it in under the pretext of chatting her. Fearing that it would affect the girl's reputation, I also specifically told her to give it directly to the young lady and not tell anyone else."

Chu Qi knelt on the ground, feeling aggrieved. He went to move the corpses in the morning. The villagers felt sorry for him, but the stench of so many corpses was unbearable.

When I came back at noon, I didn’t know what smell was in the room, it was worse than a corpse, and I was scolded again…

In the gray-black haze, Chu Yizhao walked out with a gentle look on his face. If it weren't for the strange smell in the house, it could really be said that Guanghan had come to the mortal world.

Holding a bowl of medicine in his hand, "Drink this and you won't smell it anymore"

Chu Qi took the black medicine soup. He wanted to ask, since he didn’t live here, what did it matter whether he could smell it or not?

Chu Yizhao looked at him with cold eyes. He had already made the young lady unhappy, so he dared not disobey.

After drinking a bowl of medicine, it tasted like water and was not bitter at all. The faint stench at the tip of my nose gradually disappeared.

"Miss, we..."

"Snapped!"

There was the sound of broken porcelain falling to the ground, mixed with a groan of pain. Chu Yizhao slowly sat down on the stool and watched the man fall to the ground indifferently.

Chu Qi covered his stomach with his hands, blood continuously flowing out of his mouth. The blood flowed from his mouth to his neck, forming a bloodstain.

"Miss, why... why..."

"Does it hurt?"

"pain…"

It hurts so much, from the throat to the abdomen, as if I had swallowed a knife, which kept pulling and stirring the soft intestinal wall from the throat to the stomach tube.

Chu Qi was lying on the ground with his mouth open and a dazed look in his eyes. He didn't understand why the young lady wanted to kill him. He was just an ordinary guard.

There was a sudden blockage in my throat, as if a bug had crawled into it. My vision went dark and I was about to faint, and then I felt a sudden pain on my face.

Chu Qi opened her eyes and saw a pair of brocade shoes embroidered with Ruyi patterns. Looking up, she saw a delicate chin. And then further up...

Touching the woman's cold eyes, Chu Qi shuddered, and the severe pain in his body made him kneel down and kowtow unconsciously.

"Please, miss, spare my life, miss, please spare my life."

"I didn't say I was going to kill you, why are you howling?"

"Slave...slave"

As Chu Qi knocked his head, the pain in his abdomen and throat subsided, and it was no different from normal.

If there hadn't been blood in his mouth, Chu Qi would have thought the pain just now was an illusion.

"Miss... why?"

Chu Yizhao did not answer, but asked, "You went to see Liujia Village today. If we stay tonight, what are our chances of winning?"

"Miss, you can't be so confused." Chu Qi's heart skipped a beat and she even forgot to spit out the blood in her mouth.

"I know you are kind-hearted. There are only ten guards in the Chu Mansion. Even if we include the four surviving villagers, there are only fourteen people."

"There must have been more than ten people who massacred the village yesterday, otherwise it would have been impossible to do it so quietly."

"Besides, now that they know there are people in the villa, they will definitely come to reinforce them."

There is another point that Chu Qi didn't mention. The bodies were stabbed in the throat with a single knife, cleanly and neatly. They don't look like those of ordinary bandits.

"Chu Qi, you are very skilled in martial arts. You are the only one I can count on in this villa."

Chu Yizhao kept on talking, and Chu Qi wiped the blood from his mouth, feeling anxious. No matter how stupid he was, he knew that these words could not be taken seriously...

"I added some poison to the bowl of medicine I just handed you. You must take the antidote once every fifteen days, otherwise you will die of abdominal pain like you did just now."

"what?"

Chu Yizhao's gentle voice floated into his ears. Chu Qi knelt stiffly on the ground, shaking uncontrollably, his thoughts in confusion.

After a while, he hit his head on the ground

"Chu Qi...wait for the master's orders."

In the evening, Chu Yizhao was sitting in the yard grinding something, and white powder flew out of the medicine mortar.

It was just getting dark, and there were still two hours until the hour of Xu.

Wo Qiu stood aside, his eyes filled with anxiety and his mouth opening and closing.

"What do you want to say?" Chu Yizhao said without raising his eyelids.

Wo Qiu said anxiously, "Miss, let's go back to the mansion as soon as possible. It's too dangerous here."

"What's the danger? No matter if the one who escaped is the villagers or the soldier, it's definitely not us."

Chu Yizhao said lightly.

"But Miss, aren't those villagers still in the front yard?"

"Are you stupid? The bandits dared to deliver the letter, they must be secretly watching us. I asked the guards to disguise themselves as villagers and secretly follow Huaichun and the others, which will definitely attract a lot of bandits."

"Anyone else who dares to come here will be caught by Chu Qi and the villagers."

"Hehe, Woqiu, I'm smart, right?"

Chu Yizhao raised his eyebrows slightly and showed a sly smile.

Chu Yizhao was complacent about his perfect plan, and Wo Qiu forced a smile.

"Miss is wise"

“Of course I’m smart.”

Chu Yizhao looked up at the sky, his tone very light, with some indescribable meaning.

Dinner started early and everyone gathered in the outer courtyard. Huaichun took Wei Xingche with her. Chu Qi originally wanted to stay in the inner courtyard, but was rejected by Chu Yizhao.

Chu Yizhao and Wo Qiu were the only ones left in the entire inner courtyard.

Chu Yizhao sat quietly at the table. Woqiu walked in from outside, holding a bowl of soup.

"Miss, I stewed some bird's nest, would you like some?"

It was completely dark, and there was still one hour left until the hour of Xu.

"I don't want to drink anymore." Chu Yizhao looked outside the door. "It's getting dark."

"Yes, miss, it's dark."

"Why don't you take a rest first? There's nothing interesting about all the fighting."

Wo Qiu was standing behind Chu Yizhao, and his voice came into Chu Yizhao's ears from behind, muffled and a little cold.

Chu Yizhao recalled the first time she met Wo Qiu. There was a snowstorm in Xiangzhou and many people died. She and her father passed by and saw starving people everywhere. She was so scared that she hid in her father's arms and trembled.

On that day, a little girl was seen kneeling beside a carriage. She was as thin as a bean sprout. Her father asked the servants to beat her away. After being beaten with several sticks, she just knelt there without saying a word.

Blood oozed from her tattered clothes and flowed onto the dirty snow.

She looked up at Chu Yizhao, and her eyes seemed just as cold.

"In the cold winter, you lost your parents and relatives, so I named you Woqiu."

Sleeping in the autumn, I almost forget the cold moon.

"Wo Qiu, are you Chu Huai's man?"
