"baby?"

Zhou Shiyue looked a little strange, "If you still think it's precious after reading it."

Hearing him say this, Lu Zhaoling suddenly became curious.

It sounds like everyone else is here for some treasure. Could it be that His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin is particularly different from the others?

There is a small platform in the middle of the first floor of Jibaozhai, with some tables and chairs in front, and waiters serving tea and snacks.

There were four guards standing on each side of the small platform, looking quite impressive.

I think the things in this Jibaozhai are quite valuable, otherwise there wouldn't be such a big fuss.

Zhou Shiyue took Lu Zhaoling directly to the second floor, where there was a small extended platform with a half-person-high railing and a more imposing armchair. Sitting here, one could also look down and see the small platform below.

"Your Highness, that thing is behind the platform, covered with a black cloth, and there are people guarding it. I was unable to go over and check it out, but the news should be correct."

A black-clad guard came over quickly and spoke to Zhou Shiyue in a low voice.

Zhou Shiyue did not answer him, but raised his chin to signal Lu Zhaoling, "Meet my fiancée Lu Zhaoling first. You haven't met her yet, so call her Miss."

The black-clad guard immediately saluted Lu Zhaoling and said, "Greetings, Miss!"

"Qing Xiao, he has been looking for the whereabouts of this thing for me, and he just returned to the capital." Zhou Shiyue said to Lu Zhaoling, "Next, I plan to let him be responsible for finding the medicinal materials and magic tools you need. You can also write down anything you need and give it to him."

Because Qing Xiao was also useful to Lu Zhaoling, he specially let her get to know him.

Also from the “Qing” generation?

That is to say, like Qingfeng, Qinglin and others, he is considered to be the most trusted subordinate of King Jin.

Lu Zhaoling raised her eyes and looked at Qing Xiao, her expression suddenly changing slightly.

She stood up suddenly.

Zhou Shiyue said, "Lu Er, don't scare me."

Doesn't she know that with what she has, this sudden reaction is very scary?

He is a weak and helpless little uncle. What if he gets scared by her?

Qing Xiao looked at Lu Zhaoling in confusion.

He has been traveling outside for the past three months. Although he has heard news in the past few days that the prince has a fiancée and her family background is very ordinary, he doesn't know much else.

But when he heard the prince's words, the corners of his mouth almost twitched.

How could the prince, who walked through the White Bone Beach without batting an eyelid, be so easily frightened?

"Tear off your clothes and let me see." Lu Zhaoling said to Qing Xiao.

She stared at his chest.

Qing Xiao's face changed.

No, he is frightened now too.

Zhou Shiyue frowned. No, isn’t this treatment of looking at the chest when they meet for the first time, isn’t it unique to him?

But he knew that Lu Er would not want to see Qing Xiao's chest for no reason.

"Take off your clothes." He said in a deep voice.

Although I agree, I'm not in a good mood.

"Why take off your clothes? Just open your collar a little." Lu Zhaoling stopped him immediately.

She didn't do it herself either.

Zhou Shiyue's mood improved slightly.

Although Qing Xiao didn't understand at all, he immediately responded, "Yes."

He grabbed the collar with both hands and pulled it open.

Seeing this, Zhou Shiyue's face darkened.

"When did you get hurt?"

I saw a finger-long wound on Qing Xiao's chest near the collarbone.

If it was just a wound, they would not have reacted like this. The wound was really a little weird. It could be seen that Qing Xiao had applied medicine, but apart from the brown powder of the medicine, the wound was also green. That green color looked a little weird. Moreover, there were many small holes on the edge of the wound, like pinholes, in a long row.

It can be seen that it was not caused by the needle, but a thin layer of rotten flesh with a dark green color accumulated on the edge of the small hole.

If you look closely, it looks like a small hole that has been drilled by some maggots.

Zhou Shiyue felt that he was well-informed, and he had also seen Chen Deshan's back that was so nauseating that even a dog would vomit...

But now, seeing Qing Xiao's wound, he felt his stomach churning.

"This injury has been there for two months," Qing Xiao hesitated for a moment, "and it has not healed yet. It cannot be bandaged, and it will itch terribly if bandaged. I would like to ask Your Majesty to help me find an assistant doctor to take a look."

He also saw a doctor outside, and the doctor gave him medicine, but the medicine did not help. Although his condition did not get worse, it remained almost the same.

Speaking of which, the doctor took a look and even retched.

"How did you get hurt?"

When Zhou Shiyue saw Lu Zhaoling's solemn expression, he knew in his heart that the injury must be wrong.

"I got a tip earlier that someone had seen that thing in a small mountain village, so I went to that village to inquire about it. That night, I stayed at a hunter's house. In the middle of the night, I heard some noise outside the window, so I jumped out of the window to check, and someone stabbed me with a sharp weapon."

Qing Xiao recalled what happened that night. "When I was about to fight back, the hunter uncle came out and said that the man was his son and asked me to show mercy. When I was about to withdraw my attack, I got scratched on the chest by the sharp weapon in his hand."

"That young man has had a mental problem since he was a child. He is a little mentally retarded, but he has never hurt anyone or lost control before. The hunter uncle and the people in the village said that it was the first time, so I had to give up. There was nothing unusual about the wound when he was in the village. It was several days after he left the village that he became like this."

Hearing this, Lu Zhaoling frowned and asked, "Did you go back to find them?"

Qing Xiao shook his head.

"No, I got the news and left immediately. The wound was not that painful, so I thought I would go back to the capital to deal with it..."

Zhou Shiyue looked at Lu Zhaoling, "Why, do we need to go back immediately to find the hunter's son who hurt people?"

To his surprise, Lu Zhaoling shook his head.

"No, I mean, it's a good thing he didn't go back to seek revenge. If he had, he would be dead by now."

Qing Xiao's face changed.

"He was just an ordinary hunter. By the way, he even injured one of his legs. He said he could no longer go into the mountains to hunt. His son only injured me this time. When I saw him again the next morning, he looked dull, his eyes were lifeless, and his movements were slow. He was no longer aggressive."

The other people in the village also looked simple, just ordinary villagers.

"Is that village far away from the city and hard to find, and there is a stone tablet at the entrance? Moreover, when night falls, the village becomes extremely quiet, and there are no sounds of dogs barking or chickens crowing?" Lu Zhaoling asked.

Qing Xiao's expression changed again.

Because everything Lu Zhaoling said was right.

Lu Zhaoling took out a talisman and handed it over. "Put this talisman on your chest first and we'll talk about it when we return to the palace."

Qing Xiao glanced at King Jin.

"Look at what I am doing? Do as I say." Zhou Shiyue's eyes darkened.

"Thank you, Miss." Qing Xiao immediately took the talisman, put it close to his body, and pulled his clothes together.

At this time, a middle-aged man who looked like a manager spoke loudly on the small platform downstairs.
