sick prince phoenix concubine

Chapter 276 Vinegar

All he had seen in the past was his gentle side, and this was the first time he had shown such a distinctive emotion in front of him.

Even if it was words that were not much different from usual, but the gloom hidden in the depths of her eyes made her chest feel restless.

Is he doing this because he feels that he is blaming him?
But in this world, the person who is least qualified to blame him is her——

He cultivated an excellent person like Zhu Wan just to be my maid;

In every danger, he always seems to be there in time;
He built a mysterious city for me early, just so that I won't have nowhere to go in the future;

In order to find the rumored phoenix flower, he climbed the ladder of Chifeng Mountain again and again, and in the end he got himself covered with scars, just because I needed that thing.

Even if I don't know what that thing can bring, but everything he did was for me
Xia Mochen, in this way, no matter how many bad things you do, I will not blame you, and I have no position or qualification to blame you.

The girl's silence made the cold pool in Xia Mochen's eyes glow with a deep coldness, and the mood that was always sure of winning was swayed by an unknown emotion.

He suddenly hugged her tightly, it seemed that only in this way could she not stay away from him.

Qian Ling felt a little out of breath, so she pulled back her thoughts.

Because of such a hug that seemed to rub people into the flesh and blood, her pretty face was flushed red.

At this time, she should have pushed him away, let him let go, and saved herself.

But for some reason, the struggling thoughts were wiped out as soon as they arose, and he was just allowed to hold him quietly.

Time passed bit by bit.

Xia Mochen's sudden irritability also calmed down a bit.

He let go of his hand, stepped back a little distance, stared at her flushed cheeks, with guilt in his eyes: "Ling'er, I'm sorry."

Qian Ling stared at him, and after a while, said calmly:
"Xia Mochen, you know that I am a soul from another world, I have no memory of this body before, and I don't know what she was like before.

"Since I came here and met you, you have never harmed me. Even though you have many unspeakable secrets, I don't know what you have done, but I know that in this world, maybe everyone is eligible to blame you, but I didn't."

She smiled lightly and said:
"Everything you do is for me, for my safety, and for me to live. I, Qianling, am not a person who does not know what is good or bad, and who is ungrateful, and I will not be the so-called one who abandons her sincerity because of great love. my people.

"We are all mortals, living in the secular world, and everyone has their own selfishness. If your selfishness will hurt others, then I am willing to bear the consequences with you."

"So, Xia Mochen." She raised her hand to caress his face, "As long as you live up to me, as long as you treat me sincerely, I will not leave you. You don't have to worry, I will hate you for some things.

"Perhaps my previous words were a little impulsive. I didn't know the whole picture, and I never thought about the problem from your standpoint, so I made a judgment. For this, I apologize to you."

The world is inherently unfair.

He was right, everyone's fate may have been doomed long ago.

It's just that when facing fate, different people will make different choices.

Some people will obey the arrangement of heaven, such as Lin Shun; others will not be willing to submit, such as myself.

"Ling'er."

Hearing her seriously say these words, Xia Mochen was silent for a while, and only called out her name.

Qian Ling blinked and looked at him: "I'm here."

Staring at his tired face, she said, "You should rest."

Xia Mochen held her hand: "Together."

She hasn't had much rest since midnight last night.

Qian Ling originally had other plans, but when he met his deep eyes, the words came to his lips: "Okay."

The two lay down on the bed, and he didn't let go of her hand.

I don't know if it was the infection of the people around her, or she was really tired. She planned to wait for him to fall asleep before getting up, but she really fell asleep.

When I woke up, it was already dark.

The people around him are still fast asleep, their appearance makes people look at them, they are very obedient.

She gently withdrew her hand and stood up.

Standing at the door, looking at the gloomy sky.

She wanted to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and seeing the weather, she might as well go back tomorrow.

After standing quietly for a while, he went to Lin Shun's room.

Xu Jiarui really did what he said and took good care of Lin Shun.

Entering the house, without any accident, bumped into him.

"I have something to do with Lin Shun." She said bluntly.

"The Princess is here." Lin Shun's weak voice came out, "Come in."

Xu Jiarui stepped aside reluctantly.

Qian Ling, who hadn't seen him for a day, was shocked when he saw him.

Before his eyes, his face was so pale that it was almost transparent, much worse than what he saw last night.

"What's wrong with you?" Qian Ling's lips straightened, "I'd better ask Zhu Wan to come over and take a look for you."

"Princess." Lin Shun seemed to be having a hard time speaking, his voice sounded like nothing, "It's useless, this is a normal phenomenon, after a while, it will be fine."

Qian Ling's complexion was a little dark: "Your current appearance cannot convince me."

"If the princess doesn't believe it, you can ask Zhu Wan." Lin Shun said calmly.

Qian Ling stared at him for a long time, then suddenly asked:
"Lin Shun, you have extremely high martial arts. You should be able to live a comfortable and unrestrained life in this continent, but you live by someone's side. Have you ever complained?"

Hearing this, Lin Shun was stunned for a moment, and then asked suspiciously: "Why did the Princess suddenly say such a thing?"

Qian Ling: "Today's words are only between you and me, and will not be known to a third person. You can rest assured to say what is in your heart."

"Never." Lin Shun looked at her with firm eyes, "I don't know why the princess asked such questions, but what I want to say is that following the prince, I have never regretted it, nor have I ever complained."

"I see." Qian Ling smiled faintly, "You rest, I'm leaving first."

"Princess." Lin Shun looked at his back and called out, "Everything you do for the lord is willing, and I believe that everything the lord does for you is also the same.

"We are all just trying our best to protect the people we want to protect. What we do is from the heart. We have no complaints or regrets. You don't have to blame yourself, and you don't have to feel that you can't afford it. You , deserves the best!"
-
I don't know if it was because of what Lin Shun said to Xu Jiarui, in the next few days, he did not stop Qian Ling from seeing Lin Shun.

And because his condition looked really bad, Qian Ling spent more time going to him.

After several days of no improvement, she finally called Zhu Wan over.

After checking the situation, the two walked side by side in the mansion.

"His condition is very bad." Zhu Wan said heavily, "As a cultivator, losing half of his blood is equivalent to a disabled person, but there are also people who use secret techniques to retain their powerful strength.

"Lin Shun is like this. His current weakness is precisely due to the use of secret techniques. Such techniques will greatly damage his lifespan, and he will need as little as half a year to recuperate."

With a sigh, he said again:

"His current condition is worse than that of the prince. He needs to be taken good care of and try not to get sick. One mistake, it is very likely."

She didn't say the rest.

Qian Ling was silent for a while, and asked: "Is it really the only way to look at it like this?"

"I can't do anything." Zhu Wan said solemnly, "However, it is recorded in ancient books that there is a kind of spiritual power that can heal any wound, but I have never heard of a person with such spiritual power in the world."

To be precise, a person with such power can no longer be said to be a human being, but the ultimate goal that practitioners are looking for—God.

Qian Ling: "What kind of spiritual power are you talking about?"

Zhu Wan: "The power of life."

Qianling: "."

The power of life that can heal any wound, is that something that humans can possess?
"As long as he is taken good care of, he can recover." Zhu Wan comforted.

"Yeah." Qian Ling answered absently.
-
She returned to Xia Mochen's room full of worries.

The man didn't rest yet, he beckoned: "Come here."

The tone was normal, no different from usual, but there was a sense of resentment condensed around him.

Qian Ling, who was thinking about things, didn't notice this, she walked over slowly.

"Didn't you just go out for a while?" Xia Mochen held her hand, "But you've been gone for two hours, not for a while."

These resentful words finally brought Qian Ling back to his senses.

She subconsciously explained:
"I saw that Lin Shun's body was not getting better, and he coughed up blood from time to time, so I called Zhu Wan and let him have a look."

"How?" Xia Mochen asked with the same expression.

"It is said that half of the blood essence was lost, and a forbidden technique was used—" Qian Ling suddenly stopped.

She looked thoughtfully at the person in front of her.

Lin Shun became like this to save Xia Mochen.

And Xia Mochen's body was so serious that he needed to use half of the blood of a top practitioner to stabilize his condition.

No matter how you look at it, it is not as simple as ordinary infirmity.

"Is there something you are hiding from me?" Qian Ling stared at him and asked.

Xia Mochen: "Not at all."

He touched the girl's head: "Don't think too much."

"Really?" Qian Ling looked at him suspiciously.

Xia Mochen: "Yes."

The answer was very firm.

I don't know if it's because of guilty conscience or what, he changed the subject: "Ling'er seems to be very busy these days, and I don't see you often."

Qian Ling stared at him with a faint smile: "Did the lord forget that I am not from your house?"

"I heard that there are a lot of people going to the prime minister's mansion to propose marriage these days." Xia Mochen asked with a sullen face.

"Maybe." Qian Ling said indifferently, "After all, my reputation is not bad now, and I am favored. No matter what kind of person I am, if I succeed, I will always get a lot of benefits."

She occasionally heard her mother mention it when she went back, but every time she found an excuse to slip away.

But——, what did this man suddenly bring up this matter?
Could it be that he was jealous?
"I don't see anyone all the time, I thought Ling'er left me to choose a husband and son-in-law." Xia Mochen said.

He looked like a smile but not a smile, but the words he spit out were sour.

"Are you jealous?" Qian Ling raised an eyebrow.

Xia Mochen: "No."

He knew what she was doing these days, but he didn't expect that Lin Shun could make her care so much.

"No—" Qian Ling dragged his tone, "Then why do I smell a sour smell in the air, as if a jar of vinegar has been overturned."

"Really?" Xia Mochen said indifferently, "The king's sense of smell has not been very sensitive recently, and I have never smelled it."

Qian Ling sat down with a smile, and Zhu Wan's words came to mind again.

She pondered for a moment, and decided to ask the previous question:
"You know a lot. Have you ever heard of a person with the power of life?"

The smile in Xia Mochen's eyes subsided: "Where did you hear that?"

Qian Ling: "Zhu Wanyan, she has seen it in ancient books."

"What are you looking for someone with such abilities for?" Xia Mochen asked.

"Lin Shun became like this because of you. Although he is restrained by you, he has paid too much." Qian Ling was silent for a moment, "If he remains so weak, I will always feel uneasy. So , I want him to get better as soon as possible.

"It's not just for him, it's for you, too."

Her expression turned serious:
"Although the people from God's Domain have temporarily evacuated Tianqi, there is no guarantee that they will not make a comeback. If Lin Shun's situation is known to outsiders, then you will be very dangerous."

Xia Mochen stared helplessly at the serious girl, and patted her head:
"Silly girl, Lin Shun's self-healing ability is very strong, it won't take as long as Zhu Wan said, it's just that he was weak in the first ten days, and the recovery speed will be very fast afterwards.

"Even if there are people with the power of life in the world, how can they agree to you to do such a laborious thing?"

"Really?" Qian Ling was dubious about this.

Xia Mochen nodded: "Well, really."

Qian Ling was silent for a while: "Then wait and see."

"So, you've been busy with this all day long?" Xia Mochen stared at her with a half-smile, "For the sake of other men, you left me aside?"

This appearance made Qian Ling laugh suddenly: "Is someone really not jealous of these sour and resentful words?"

"I was thinking that if I'm jealous, I have to coax it, otherwise it's not good for my body to be soaked in acid vat for too long." She blinked and said regretfully, "Looking at it now, Looks like it's not necessary."

"." Xia Mochen narrowed his eyes, and brought her to him, "How does Ling'er plan to coax this king?"

Qian Ling pinched his jaw with his hand: "Then are you jealous?"

Xia Mochen stared at her in silence for a long time, and said with a normal expression: "Is there anything, shouldn't Linger be very clear?"

Qian Ling stroked his jaw with his finger, and said in a slow tone: "I want to hear what you have to say."

Xia Mochen: "This king is jealous, Ling'er has to think about it—"

Before he finished speaking, his lips softened suddenly.

As soon as he touched it, he left, so fast that he didn't even have time to react.

"Are you satisfied?" Qian Ling asked with a smile.

Xia Mochen narrowed his eyes: "Not satisfied."

"Oh?" Knowing that he thought it was too fast, Qian Ling deliberately said, "My lord, don't be too greedy."

When the voice fell, the person stood up.

Xia Mochen: "."
