The emperor paced outside, his eyebrows and eyes full of anxiety. Reason told him that a little girl really couldn't have any detoxification method.

Besides, this girl seemed to come with nothing, how could she detoxify the Phoenix King?

But the Imperial Hospital was helpless and even asserted that the Phoenix King would not survive this month - the Phoenix King had been poisoned for more than two months, and the symptoms had been getting worse.

The emperor was extremely anxious and posted the imperial edict throughout the country. Many people who claimed to be miracle doctors came in two months, but no one could detoxify the Phoenix King.

Even if there was a little hope, he was unwilling to give up, even if this hope sounded so slim.

In the bedroom, the woman walked to the edge of the bed and looked at the man lying on the bed - in fact, strictly speaking, he could only be regarded as a teenager.

A beautiful and unparalleled teenager.

He was called a god, not only because he was born with supernatural powers, but also because his face was rare and stunning in the Chu State, and was called "the face of a god" by the people.

After a short measurement, the woman took the boy's wrist and felt his pulse. The pulse was disordered and weak, which was indeed a symptom of poison entering the lungs.

Putting down the boy's wrist, the woman took out a rectangular brocade box from her sleeve, in which a row of silver needles were neatly placed, shining with cold light.

With her slender white fingers, she took out a long silver needle, grabbed the boy's hand and began to pierce his fingers.

After one needle was inserted, the boy lying on the bed suddenly turned over and jumped up with a carp-like movement, and in a blink of an eye, he pressed the girl under him.

The boy's eyes were cruel and cold. He pinched the girl's slender neck with one hand and lowered his voice full of murderous aura: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"

This violent movement caused the true energy in his body to run wild. The boy coughed softly, and a strand of black blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth, which was shocking.

The girl who was subdued on the bed did not speak, but just looked at her quietly. There seemed to be a layer of ice in her dark and clean pupils. She was silent, but it made people palpitate.

"You..." Why is the breath so familiar?

The boy was startled, slowly reached out and took off her hood, and a look of disbelief flashed across her beautiful face, "Your Highness?"

Under the hood, there was a noble and exquisite face, so beautiful that it was breathtaking.

Princess Yan Qing of Suzaku.

The boy's hand quickly retracted as if it was burned: "Your Highness, you...you..."

Why did you suddenly come to the Phoenix Palace?

Yan Qing sat up from the bed, "Stretch out your hand."

The boy was stunned and stretched out his hand obediently.

Yan Qing took the silver needle and pressed it towards his fingertips. The boy cried out in pain: "It hurts."

"Detoxification."

"That hurts too." The boy said, looking at Yan Qing silently, "Why did your highness suddenly come to Chu?"

"I heard that you were poisoned, so I came to see if you were dead."

The boy was immediately moved: "Your highness, are you concerned about me?"

Yan Qing raised his eyes and looked at him silently, grabbed another finger and pressed it down, and heard another cry as expected: "It hurts, it hurts!"

Black blood flowed from between his fingers, and Yan Qing grabbed his fingers without any gentleness to squeeze out the black blood: "Tell me, what's going on?"

The boy was silent, still Staring at his hand, "Your Highness, does this count as physical intimacy?"

Yan Qing's red lips slightly pursed, holding his middle finger, and rubbed it hard: "I'll let you kiss it a few more times."

The boy frowned in pain: "Your Highness, be gentle."

"Is poisoning fun?"

"Not fun." The boy pouted and raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, "There are too many wolves and tigers in Chu State, and it is hard to guard against them. I was caught in a moment of carelessness and fell into the trap."

"Aren't you a god?"

The boy sat aside, his voice very calm: "I am a god to my subjects, but it doesn't affect my enemies' desire to kill me."

He was born a humble emperor, but because of his innate supernatural powers, he became the most noble prince in Chu State except for the Queen Mother.

Although he had been respected and admired by the people since he was a child, and had more prestige than the Queen Mother, he had no freedom, no power, and was restricted in everything he did. He could only stay in the Phoenix Palace to meditate and pray for the royal family.

When he was fourteen, he couldn't stand the boring life like being imprisoned, so he found an opportunity to sneak out.

This sneak lasted for many years.

Before he was fourteen, he didn't know what intrigue and conspiracy were, but after leaving for many years and returning to Chu, he had become the most respected "God" by the people of Chu.

His father also ordered people to build a temple for him in the Phoenix Palace. The respect of the subjects and the love of his father made him the target of public criticism in an instant.

In the past six months, assassinations, poisoning, conspiracy and framing... all kinds of means have emerged one after another, which is really annoying.

"Chu is a very contradictory country." Ji Weiyu's voice was full of irony, "From the king and his ministers to the common people, everyone believes in God, but those who pursue power regard me as an enemy and want to get rid of me by any means."

As he said, the young man raised his eyes and looked at Yan Qing: "Your Highness, do you think it's strange?"

"No." Yan Qing said indifferently, "Because your existence has become an obstacle to their pursuit of power."

The young man was silent for a moment, and nodded slowly: "How come Your Highness has time to come?"

"I'm bored at home, so I came to see what you are doing."

"Your Highness, don't be so ruthless. It's thousands of miles, and it will take half a month to go even if you gallop." The young man said, holding Yan Qing's hand and putting it on his lips, "I'm very touched."

Yan Qing's eyes fell on his hands: "Don't you want these claws?"

The young man laughed awkwardly and quickly let go, not daring to be presumptuous again.

"That..." He looked at the pinch marks on Yan Qing's neck with a guilty conscience, "Your Highness, it doesn't hurt here, right?"

"What do you think?"

"I'll let Your Highness pinch it back."

Yan Qing stood up and packed up the silver needles: "What's the situation in Chu now?"

"They are fighting against each other and killing each other." Ji Weiyu moved to the head of the bed and leaned against it, his voice cold, "Originally, I had no interest in their throne, but I couldn't stand someone trying to kill me twice, so I felt that if I didn't take the throne, I would always let them down. "I'm so happy."

Yan Qing hummed: "It's good to have ambition."

"How is your highness?" Ji Weiyu looked up at Yan Qing, "After returning to Yong, did he bully you?"

"Now only the imperial concubine can bully others."

Ji Weiyu raised the corner of his mouth: "I like your highness's arrogance."

After saying that, he couldn't help but feel melancholy: "I think back to the time when your highness was also a simple and harmless boy. After spending a few years with your highness, he has completely become a scheming and cunning person."

Yan Qing looked at him expressionlessly.

Ji Weiyu wanted to say something else, but suddenly his lungs hurt. He coughed violently and suddenly spit out a mouthful of black blood: "Puff!"

Yan Qing quickly pressed the acupoints on his heart meridian, and at the same time, a pill with a fresh fragrance was stuffed into his mouth.

"You deserve it." Yan Qing said coldly, "With your stupid look, you are worthy of saying that you are cunning and scheming?"

Ji Weiyu was dissatisfied: "Being cunning and scheming does not mean you are immune to all poisons."
