The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

After His Royal Highness the Crown Prince dealt with the assassins in the house, Yang Qi quickly checked the wounds on Peilin's body.

According to the Fifth Prince's usual tactics, there was a high probability that the daggers of these assassins were poisoned.

Yang Qi's prediction was correct. Peilin had only been injured for a quarter of an hour, but his neck and hands had already turned purple and black. "What a trouble."

The assassins sent by the Fifth Prince were extremely ruthless and every move they made was intended to be fatal. Fortunately, Peilin was a martial arts expert and except for the wound on his neck, the rest of the injuries avoided critical parts of the body.

Using a handkerchief to soak up some of the blood on Peilin's neck, Yang Qi reported to His Highness beside him: "Your Highness, Xiao Qi needs some medicinal herbs. Time is short and we must find them as soon as possible."

The poison in Peilin's body cannot be cured by ordinary antidote pills. He needs to be fed with counteracting medicinal herbs. This poison is much more difficult to cure than the poison that Brother Huo Yun suffered at that time.

The tactics used to deal with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince were indeed tricky.

No medical skills were needed. Seeing Peilin's current condition, His Royal Highness knew that what the maid said was true: "Write down all the herbs you need, and I will go find them myself."

Yang Qi widened his eyes: "Your Highness, please don't tell Xiao Qi that there is no one of yours around here?" If this is true, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really too bold!

Yang Qi himself did not realize at the moment how excited he was and how unbelievable he felt in his heart.

The Crown Prince was also startled by the girl's sudden voice: "If not for this, why would Old Five's people come out in full force?"

Speaking of this, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince couldn't help but include some self-mockery in his words.

Most of the brothers from poor families love each other and fight against the enemy together. In noble or wealthy families, even if brothers want to fight for property, they usually have some bottom line. But the children of the royal family cannot tolerate any tenderness. Once they lose, they can't save their lives.

Sensing the loneliness in His Highness's words, Yang Qi's confusion was not answered at all. His Highness repeatedly took risks in person, what exactly was he trying to do? He did not believe that His Highness came here just to deal with bandits.

Yang Qi had a lot of questions in his mind, but Peilin's injury was the most serious, so he had to write down the required herbs first and handed them to His Highness: "Your Highness, this prescription contains the herbs that Xiao Qi needs."

Taking the paper, His Royal Highness took a quick look at it, memorized it, and then put the note in his arms: "This inn is not safe, let's retreat to a safe place first."

Fortunately, Yang Qi and his companions did not have much luggage with them, and with the Crown Prince supporting Peilin, Yang Qi was able to carry all the luggage by himself.

The three of them rode for nearly half an hour before His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stopped in front of an old tree.

As soon as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince showed up, six men in black dressed in night clothes jumped down from the tree and knelt at the same time: "Master."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not reply, but just winked at the leader, who immediately stepped forward and took over the seriously injured Peilin from behind His Royal Highness.

Yang Qi immediately dismounted, fed a pill into Peilin's mouth, turned to the Crown Prince and said, "Your Highness, three hours." In three hours, you must come back with the antidote. Otherwise, Peilin can only wait to die.

Yang Qi did not say the remaining two sentences, believing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince already knew the seriousness of the matter.

Nodding slightly, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's expression became more serious, and he ordered: "Before I come back, everything must be done by Miss Yang Qi." After giving the instructions, he rode away.

The medicine that Yang Qi just fed into Peilin's mouth was not an antidote, but it could only alleviate the effects of the poison and buy time for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Looking at Peilin who had fallen into a coma, Yang Qi's eyes couldn't help but darken and he clenched his hands tightly.

Although Yang Qi knew very little about what His Royal Highness had done over the years, he could more or less guess at the Crown Prince's approach and goals.

However, Yang Qi really couldn’t understand what happened today.

What secrets does this shady shop have that could attract His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to take such a risk?

If it was really for the purpose of upholding justice and getting rid of the bandits in the black shop, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince could have just given an order to have the secret guards come and resolve the matter. Why would he choose to deal with the killer alone, which is the most stupid way?

When Yang Qi thought about the fact that His Highness had lived in such a dangerous environment since he was a child, his heart felt like it was being cut by a knife and was in great pain.

Does His Highness really want to sit on the supreme throne? Or is it because he has to do this to protect his family and the people behind him?

These days, seeing the people being displaced, the farmers without land, the merchants without shops, Yang Qi understood the anger and heartache in the eyes of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

If Your Highness could take over the Tianyuan Dynasty, there would be fewer people suffering like this.

In order to maximize time, Yang Qi completed all the preparations, including clean water for washing the medicinal materials.

As time passed, Yang Qi became more and more anxious. On the one hand, he was worried about Peilin's condition. On the other hand, he was also worried that His Highness would encounter bandits when he was alone.

What does it mean to live every day like a year, what does it mean to be restless, Yang Qi finally experienced the bitterness of it.

Peilin is not only the personal bodyguard of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but also the one in charge of all of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's secret guards. The six secret guards in charge of the liaison this time were all trained by Peilin.

Seeing the leader's weak and bloodless appearance, the six secret guards all looked very bad. One of them couldn't help but asked, "Miss Yang Qi, is the leader's injury serious?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the other five people's ears perked up, anxiously waiting for Miss Yang Qi's reply.

"His Highness has gone to find the antidote himself." Yang Qi didn't dare to say more about Peilin's current condition.

Before knowing everyone's identity and position, Yang Qi would not speak easily. His Highness has so many secret guards under him, and no one can guarantee that the friendship between them is unbreakable.

In the Mansion of Duke Song, several factions can be found in just one courtyard. The people inside are all very complicated and each has his own little plans.

Yang Qi, who grew up in such an environment, is extremely wary of strangers, even if they are the Crown Prince's men.

"Tap, tap, tap."

The long-awaited sound of horse hooves finally sounded from afar. Yang Qi couldn't help but stand up and followed the direction of the horse hooves sound. Sure enough, he saw the two people he had been thinking about for more than two hours.

Standing on tiptoe and waving, Yang Qi couldn't help but say, "Your Highness."

Fortunately, you are okay.

After untying the luggage behind him, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince handed it to Yang Qi: "All the herbs on the prescription are here."

Yang Qi quickly checked all the herbs and nodded, "No problem, it's exactly what I want."

Valuing time and not daring to stay too long, Yang Qi quickly dealt with the herbs brought by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. He didn't know when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince disappeared again.
