The ruthless prince and the enchanting concubine

Chapter 217

To the west of Chaoliang, the capital of the Western Jin Dynasty, is a very huge manor. It is not so much a manor, it is more like a big village. Countless buildings and dwellings live here. This is the residence of the disciples of the Baidu Sect. The head of the sect, Ye Jige, has been living in the palace and rarely comes here on weekdays.In order to accommodate everyone in the sect, he specially asked Hao Lianwuli for such a resettlement place.

Among these countless rooms, there is a courtyard that is very fresh and elegant. In the small and exquisite courtyard, a few purple bamboos that were planted randomly are scattered. Under the moonlight, their slender figures are swaying with the wind. The lights cast these plants in a patchwork pattern on the square bricks, which is so poetic and picturesque for people to see.

This exquisite small courtyard is Nangong Yuexi's residence, there are very few female disciples in the Hundred Poison Sect, that's why the sect master assigned such a beautiful small courtyard to Nangong Yuexi.

The dim candlelight flickered, and a beautiful figure was cast on the light yellow window lattice paper. Just by looking at this wonderful shadow, one could know the beauty of the person in the room...

Nangong Yuexi sat at the table, meditating silently, there seemed to be some dimness in her beautiful eyes.

Three days have passed since the battle between Fengnan Dynasty and the Western Jin Dynasty. During these three days, she has been thinking about Nangong Jin all the time.

Nangong Yuexi sighed softly. I don't know how Nangong Jin's injury is now. Ever since he was left by Ning Ningyan that day, there has been no news. Nangong Yuexi seems to have guessed it. At this moment, they are probably Has returned to Linglong Mountain.

Thinking of Nangong Jin by Ning Ningyan's side, Nangong Yuexi felt an inexplicable pain in her heart, perhaps this was the last result she wanted to see.How can a woman have the heart to see the man she has been worrying about being taken away by another woman?
On the battlefield, a poisonous back arrow silently passed through the dust, and stuck straight into Nangong Jin's arm...

During these three days, this kind of picture appeared in front of Nangong Yuexi countless times, and the next second of thinking was filled with endless grief.

Crystal tears kept rolling in Nangong Yuexi's eyes, but she forgot to wipe them off...

Brother Jin, forgive Yuexi, everything is a last resort, if I can get back the forgiveness in your heart, I would rather exchange it with my life... Nangong Yuxi's pair of jade hands were tightly held together, and she leaned gently In front of the forehead, eyes filled with tears were slightly closed, as if praying.

After a while, Nangong Yuexi stood up, wiped the moist corners of her eyes slightly, lightly blew out the candles on the table, and quietly walked out of the room.

The coolness of the night breeze made Nangong Yuexi's troubled heart seem to become a little quieter. She left the small courtyard and walked along the alley to the south.

At this moment, she made up her mind to go to a place, and that place was a three-story building with a very nice name, Seven Star Building.

The Seven Star Tower is located in the center of the residence of the disciples of the Hundred Poison Sect. Ye Jige's arrangement is also for the sake of safety, because in this building, there are some of the most important items for the Hundred Poison Sect.

Nangong Yuexi secretly calculated the date in her heart, now three days have passed since Nangong Jin was poisoned, and there is no longer any delay...

Occasionally, I would meet some disciples of the Hundred Poison Sect on the street. After seeing Nangong Yuexi, they would all say hello. But in his heart, he didn't have the slightest thought to take care of other things.

After bypassing two buildings, the Seven Star Building appeared in front of Nangong Yuexi. The flying eaves looked like the wings of some strange bird, stretching out a strange figure under the dark starry sky.

"It's here..." Nangong Yuexi whispered to himself.

Day and night, there were several guarding disciples standing at the door of the Qixing Tower. The leader was Zhao Shuo from the Hundred Poisons Sect. This was also arranged by Ye Jige himself. There was a shining cold sword hanging from his waist, and he watched from afar. In the past, from time to time, the eyes cast a vigilant light on the surroundings.

Nangong Yuexi hid in the corner of the alley, staring intently at the gate of Qixing Building, secretly planning her own plan.

Leaving the spot, Nangong Yuexi walked around quietly, and after a cup of tea, he came to the back of the Qixing Building.

Nangong Yuexi kept looking around, every window of the three-storey building was blocked, if he wanted to get in, he had to go through the guards in front.But how is this possible?

Turning back and forth twice, she couldn't help secretly anxious, how can she get in?With her kung fu, although she can jump up to the second floor without too much effort, she knows that these windows have been riveted from the inside with countless iron nails. It will make a noise, alarming the gatekeepers in front...

Alas, what can be done.

Nangong Yuexi walked lightly with lotus steps, pacing non-stop at the back of the building, she put all her thoughts on this, she didn't notice at all, there was a person approaching her quietly...

"Xiao Xi, is that you?" In the darkness, such a voice suddenly came out, and Nangong Yuexi couldn't help being startled. In an instant, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"Xiao Xi?" The man was still talking, while approaching Nangong Yuexi.

"Zhao...Zhao Shuo?" Nangong Yuexi stammered and asked, the man's voice was very familiar to her.

"Yeah." Zhao Shuo replied softly, and continued to approach, "Why haven't you slept so late?"

"I... I, I just came out for a stroll with a distracted mind, and I wanted to come and see you and see how the guards in the Qixing Building are doing." Nangong Yuexi tried her best to make up a reason, and unconsciously turned her head to one side, As if deliberately avoiding Zhao Shuo's gaze, she actually ignored it. In such darkness, how could Zhao Shuo clearly see her flustered face?

"Oh..." Zhao Shuo's heart felt warm, and he was still thinking about what she said just now, "I want to see you by the way".These words seemed to make him feel a little warmth.

Xiao Xi, do you really have me, Zhao Shuo, in your heart?Don't forget to come and see me so late?

However, in the next second, a cloud of doubt rose in Zhao Shuo's heart. Is what she said true?Want to see why he doesn't go to the front in an open and aboveboard manner?
"Xiao Xi, you..." Zhao Shuo wanted to ask something abruptly, but he didn't ask in the end.

"It's getting late, Xiao Xi, go back and rest, maybe the king will ask you to go to the palace tomorrow for something."

Hearing the hesitation in Zhao Shuo's words, Nangong Yuexi felt nervous again. Could it be that he discovered something?
"Well, Zhao Shuo, the Seven Star Building has a lot to do with it. You, you should take good care of it. I'll go first..." Nangong Yuexi said, leaving the darkness.

Seeing her blurry figure walking away, Zhao Shuo didn't leave the spot, but just stared blankly.

Zhao Shuo's eyebrows were furrowed, how could he not know Nangong Yuexi's plan?Regarding her mysterious behavior tonight, he had already guessed seven or eight points in his heart.

Xiao Xi, you lied to me back then... If what you said was true and you wouldn't have feelings for Nangong Jin, then why would you care about him so much?
In Zhao Shuo's heart, there is no jealousy, no hatred, just a touch of distress...

……

In the backyard of Linglong Mountain, Ning Yan just came out of the house, holding a wooden basin in her hand, she just cleaned Nangong Jin's face with a cold towel.

Gently pouring water into the courtyard, Ning Yan looked at the vast night sky and sighed slightly.

It has been three days since Nangong Jin was poisoned, and all conceivable methods have been thought of, but now they are still at a loss. The antidote brought by Zhu Yefei has also been handed over to Xuan Fengming for analysis, but there is still nothing to do to Nangong Jin. Helpful results.

What should I do next...

Condensing the infinite sadness in Yan Yan's heart, could it be that she could only watch Nangong Jin exhausted little by little in front of her, and died of poison when the deadline came?

All this is so helpless, but also so painful.

Although Ning Ningyan told Xuan Fengming to at least guarantee that Nangong Jin would be fine for at least half a month, and that she would solve the antidote by herself, but in the current situation, what could she do?
The bright moon is bright and clear, but the beautiful moon is such an ignorant misery...

After a moment of relaxation in the courtyard, Ning Yan returned to the room and sat silently on the chair beside Nangong Jin's bed.

Looking at Nangong Jin's haggard face, Ning Ningyan raised her jade hand slightly, as if she had the urge to touch it up, but in the next second, she stopped moving and clenched her hand into a fist.

Ning Ningyan, you shouldn't do this, haven't you already given up on Nangong Jin?Between you, there is no possibility...

Condensing Yan said silently in her heart, comforting herself, maybe this feeling is just out of sympathy and pity for him.

The room is so quiet, Ning Yan just sat quietly like this, she didn't notice at all that there was a pair of eyes watching everything in the room outside the window.

A man in black hid his figure under the window frame, quietly watching every move in the room. He couldn't see Ning Yan's face clearly, but could only see her beautiful back.

Quietly, there seemed to be a smile on the corner of the black shadow's mouth.

Nangong Jin, what is the relationship between this woman and you?Not only did he risk his life to rescue you from the crowd of armies, but he also brought you here?

Seeing that the woman in the room did not intend to rest, the man in black looked back at the sky, judging the current time based on the position of the moon.

The night seemed to be very deep, and it was almost midnight.

The man in black moved gently, and quietly took out a stick of incense from his arms...
