The ruthless prince and the enchanting concubine

Chapter 219

Zhao Shuo's abrupt words made Nangong Yuexi very sad. At this moment, she no longer knew how to face the Hundred Poisons, let alone what to say to Zhao Shuo in this situation.

"Xiao...Xiao Xi." Zhao Shuo called softly, but Nangong Yuexi just cried and didn't answer a word.

'I just want to hear the truth. Even if you really like Nangong Jin, I won't say anything to you. After all, I... respect your choice. "

Nangong Yuexi won't know what kind of emotions Zhao Shuo had when he said these words at this moment...

Seeing her sad appearance, Zhao Shuo stood up involuntarily, and quietly took out a handkerchief from his sleeve.

"Xiao Xi, don't cry, let me see you like this, it's better to tell me to die immediately..." At this moment, Zhao Shuo didn't know what to say to comfort her.

Walking to Nangong Yuexi, Zhao Shuo gently shook her trembling shoulders, calling "Xiaoxi" incessantly.

After a long time, Nangong Yuexi's mood finally seemed to calm down a bit, she slowly sat up straight, her handsome face was already crying uncontrollably.

"Come on, wipe away your tears, don't cry any more, you will only make my heart hurt more." Zhao Shuo said while gently wiping the tears on her face.

This scene was so warm, but neither of them realized that Nangong Yuexi was just sad, while Zhao Shuo was just distressed.

"Zhao Shuo...why, why do I fall in love with someone I shouldn't fall in love with! I also hate myself, but...but..." Nangong Yuexi said in a tangled manner, and tears flowed from her eyes again, as if No matter how Zhao Shuo rubbed it, he couldn't dry it off.

Zhao Shuo simply threw away the handkerchief, as if his body was out of control, he suddenly hugged Nangong Yuexi tightly in his arms.

"Xiao Xi, stop talking. I'm the one who made you sad today. If you want to cry, cry as much as you want. I will always be by your side." Zhao Shuo said, lovingly stroking Nangong Yue On the head of Xixi, the touch of the blue silk hair is so soft.

Cry, Xiao Xi, release yourself to your heart's content, don't hide the feelings in your heart, even if you don't like me, I'm willing to just be by your side and guard you until the moment when you are no longer sad.

Nangong Yuexi gradually wraps her arms around Zhao Shuo's waist. Perhaps at this time, she really needs a hug to warm her, and a solid arm to support her fragmented feelings...

After a long time, Nangong Yuexi in Zhao Shuo's arms finally calmed down, as if she finally stopped crying sadly.

"Heart...does it still hurt?" Zhao Shuo asked tenderly.

Nangong Yuexi was silent.

"Xiao Xi, forget everything about the past, you and Nangong Jin...it's impossible at all." Zhao Shuo said seemingly ruthlessly, but he knew that this might be the best way to comfort him at this time. The temporary pain may be able to exchange for long-term peace of mind in the future.

Nangong Yuexi understood it, so why didn't she know this truth, she was the bodyguard of the king of the Western Jin Dynasty, and Nangong Jin was the high-ranking prince of the enemy country, and they might not be together in the end when the sea dry up and rocks crumble.

She slowly let go of Zhao Shuo's warm arms, and wiped away her tears.

"Zhao Shuo, I'm really conflicted...why did God treat me like this..." Her voice was soft, but still choked up.

"Hey..." Zhao Shuo sighed softly.

"Xiao Xi, maybe you shouldn't have been sent to Fengnan Dynasty as an undercover agent in the first place, maybe this position should be assigned to someone else." Zhao Shuo said, but felt that these words seemed so weak now.

"Forget Nangong Jin... This is a secret between the two of us. Don't worry, I will never tell anyone. If I can, I..." Zhao Shuo stopped talking suddenly, and he was about to reach the end of his mouth. The words on the side were swallowed back sharply.

Xiao Xi, if possible, I would like to take Nangong Jin's place in your heart...

The fragrant tea on the table had already been cold for some time, and Zhao Shuo didn't know how long he had stayed in Nangong Yuexi's room. Finally, he gently stroked Nangong Yuexi's face, and passed his fingertips, yes That kind of touch, at the same time sticking to the hand, and the remaining tears.

"Xiao Xi, I was too reckless to come here today, I'm sorry, I will never ask you such a question again in the future."

Nangong Yuexi could hear it clearly, but she felt so helpless in her heart. Could it be that Zhao Shuo would never remember this feeling without asking, and would bury it in his heart forever?

"Have a good rest, don't cry anymore, or you will break your body from crying." Zhao Shuo said, forcing his body to leave the room, and walked towards the door.

In Nangong Yuexi's hazy eyes, she clearly saw that when Zhao Shuo walked to the door, he stopped again, as if he had been hesitating for something.

Zhao Shuo didn't turn his head back, and couldn't discern the expression on his face at this time, only heard him talking softly.

"Xiao Xi, if you can figure it out, just make a break with Nangong Jin. I know you don't want to leave any regrets in your heart, so..." At this point, Zhao Shuo suddenly paused.

Nangong Yuexi waited quietly, not knowing what Zhao Shuo wanted to say.

"I don't want you to have any regrets either, so tonight, you come to the Seven Star Building, remember, it's the second watch." Zhao Shuo's words were clear and sound, after the last words, Zhao Shuo Shuo stepped over the threshold and left the room.

Nangong Yuexi could hear clearly, and naturally knew what Zhao Shuo meant.

He wants to help her finish the last thing she did to Nangong Jin...

Nangong Yuexi had mixed feelings in her heart, maybe she didn't expect that even after seeing through her inner feelings, he still chose to help her.

Zhao Shuo, thank you...

……

Around the second watch of the night, Nangong Yuexi changed into her night clothes, left the small courtyard, and went to Qixing Building.

Regarding Zhao Shuo's words, Nangong Yuexi firmly believed, she knew that this man would never lie to her.

Just like that night, Nangong Yuexi hurried forward along the alley, and finally came to the front of the Seven Star Building. She was still in that corner, and she looked towards the front of the building.

The two red lanterns in front of the building were still bright, but different from that day, in her eyes there was only a lonely and deserted person, Zhao Shuo.

How could Nangong Yuexi not understand that Zhao Shuo must have used some means to send the other disciples of the Hundred Poison Sect guarding the gate to other places. Obviously, all this was to create opportunities for her .

Nangong Yuexi was only infinitely grateful to Zhao Shuo.

Walking out of the street corner, she quietly walked towards the Seven Star Building.

Zhao Shuo was anxiously waiting for Nangong Yuexi to appear, and just now, he had sent away the disciples of the Hundred Poison Sect who were guarding the gate.

It wasn't until the familiar figure of Nangong Yuexi appeared in sight that Zhao Shuo let go of his nervousness a little bit, looked around vigilantly and there was nothing abnormal, Zhao Shuo hurried over.

"Xiao Xi, you are here." Zhao Shuo said in a low voice.

"Zhao Shuo, where are you... those gatekeepers?" Nangong Yuexi asked.

"Now is not the time to talk about these things. Those people have been sent to other places by me. The door of the building has been secretly opened for you. Go in quickly. It is best to get the antidote within the time of two sticks of incense. It has been delayed for a long time and someone discovered it, I'm afraid I have nothing to do." Zhao Shuo continued to observe the surroundings while urging Nangong Yuexi to go in and get the medicine.

There is no need to say thank you for your kindness, Nangong Yuexi glanced at Zhao Shuo gratefully, and then entered the Qixing Building.

Looking at the shadow of Nangong Yuexi, Zhao Shuo's heart was tangled in one place, but he was thinking secretly, Yuexi, for Nangong Jin, I can only allow you to do this...

The antidote for all the poisons in the Hundred Poisons Sect is stored in the Seven Star Building, and the disciples in the Sect are not allowed to own it. This is the rule set by Ye Jige, the master of the Hundred Poisons Sect. All the antidotes are placed here, and taught to take care of them, but it is estimated that Ye Jige would never have imagined that someone in the door would risk the risk to steal the medicine.

Yuexi flew up to the third floor at the fastest speed, and the things she needed were stored here.

Gently took out the flint and fire sickle from her bosom, and the fire light illuminated a few inches of the scene. In front of countless wooden frames, she carefully searched...

Brother Jin, wait a little longer, when Yuexi finds the antidote, I will send it to you right away!

Not long after, she finally found the antidote to the poison Nangong Jin was poisoned on a wooden shelf. The antidote was sealed in a box with more than a dozen vials inside.

Nangong Yuexi couldn't help being excited, and hurriedly took out a bottle from it, checked it by the light of the fire, and put it into her bosom after confirming it was correct.

After putting everything in place, Nangong Yuexi went down to the third floor. Through the gap in the door, she could see clearly that everything was as usual, and no one came. It was still the lonely figure of Zhao Shuo.

"How is it, Xiao Xi, have you found the antidote?" Seeing Nangong Yuexi coming out, Zhao Shuo asked anxiously.

Nangong Yuexi nodded.

"Zhao Shuo, thank you, I have found the antidote, and it is on my body now." Nangong Yuexi wanted to say something grateful, but she didn't know what to say.

Zhao Shuo gently took Nangong Yuexi's hand, and then squeezed it tightly.

"Xiao Xi, promise me, this is the last time, go back quickly, those people should be back soon."

"Well, Zhao Shuo, I promise you, this time, I really thank you..." After Nangong Yuexi finished speaking, she didn't look back and ran into the side alley.

Nangong Yuexi had just left when a man's voice came from the other side of the alley.

"Brother Zhao! Our brothers have already checked, and other places are safe, let's keep an eye on this Qixing building!" It seems that the few people who were sent away by Zhao Shuo have returned.

"Oh! Thank you for your hard work!" Zhao Shuo replied absent-mindedly. At this moment, his back was covered with cold sweat...
