The ruthless prince and the enchanting concubine

Chapter 220
Just like in his own manor, Zhu Yefei has always maintained the habit of getting up early after coming to Linglong Mountain.

After tidying up the bed, Zhu Yefei stretched his waist greatly. There was a simple wooden bed in the outer room, and the servant who brought him was sleeping on it in the shape of a big character with his legs turned upside down. Zhu Yefei didn't disturb him. , quietly walked out of the room.

The air in the morning was exceptionally fresh, which made Zhu Yefei feel refreshed. He was also thinking secretly why he hadn't discovered the fairyland-like existence of Linglong Mountain. If so, maybe his Zhu Family Manor might be built here.

Now it is the tenth of spring, and most of the trees that have been silent for the whole winter have gradually glowed with new vitality. Walking on the mountain path, what you see is the touch of charming green, and a few birds are chirping. Jumping in the treetops, it's quite a bit leisurely.

Zhu Yefei walked aimlessly on the path with his hands behind his back, looking at the beautiful scenery around him and thinking about his thoughts.

"It's been five days..." Zhu Yefei counted silently in his heart. Today is the fifth day of Nangong Jin's severe poisoning. Seeing the passing of time, Ning Yan and the others did not have the slightest concern for Nangong Jin's injury. Method……

"Ning Ningyan, is this Nangong Jin so important to you? You care so much?" Zhu Yefei said to himself, his expression seemed relaxed, as if he didn't care about Nangong Jin's affairs, but it was actually the same. The first time he came to Linglong Mountain, he came entirely at Ning Ningyan's invitation.

Although the stroll was aimless, when Zhu Yefei raised his head again, a manor appeared in front of him, and he walked to the back mountain before he knew it...

"Huh?" Zhu Yefei raised his head gently, "How did I get here..."

When he was debating whether to leave, Zhu Yefei heard a sound beside him, turned his head suddenly, and saw the small door of the house slightly opened, and it happened that Ning Ningyan came out from inside.

"Oh?" Condensed Yan exclaimed softly.

This is really a coincidence, Zhu Yefei walked to the back mountain unconsciously, and met this woman here...

"Master Zhu, what are you?" Ning Yan poured out a small basin of clear water far away, turned around and asked Zhu Yefei, wondering why he who lives in Qianshan came here.

She even had some doubts, could it be that he came to see her?

Zhu Yefei was slightly taken aback, as if he was thinking about how to answer.

"Hehe, Pavilion Master Leng, I have nothing to do, just walk around casually. The scenery on Linglong Mountain is so charming, it also made me linger, so I came here before I knew it." Zhu Yefei tried his best to pretend With a meaningless look, he said calmly.

"Oh..." Ning Ningyan responded softly, "The breakfast in front should have been prepared, Mr. Zhu, if you are hungry, go eat." As she said, Ning Ningyan turned around and wanted to go to the courtyard go.

At this moment, Zhu Yefei felt a little lost in his heart, as if it was because of Ning Yan's hasty words...

"Master Leng, wait!" Zhu Yefei called Ning Yan, since he came here, he wouldn't leave so disheartened.

"I don't know how is King Jing'an's injury? Has the doctor in your pavilion made any progress?"

When the sound fell, Zhu Yefei looked at Ning Ningyan's body and seemed to be shaken. She stopped abruptly. Although she didn't turn her head, he could feel her tangled expression at the moment.

"Mr. Zhu, thank you for your concern. Nangong Jin... is still the same." After finishing speaking, Ning Yan walked into the courtyard. Through the small door, Zhu Yefei looked at Ning Ning Yan's leaving figure, and there was a feeling of wanting to leave. The urge to follow may be because he wants to comfort this hurt-looking woman.

After struggling for a while, Zhu Yefei still stepped forward to follow.

When Zhu Yefei entered the room, Ning Yan was folding a square towel and gently placing it on Nangong Jin's head, so gentle and considerate.

Zhu Yefei could see clearly that Nangong Jin's appearance hadn't changed much from when he first arrived that day, his face was still ugly, and his brows were wrinkled.

Hearing Zhu Yefei's footsteps, Ning Yan turned around and said, "Why did you come in? I didn't remember to invite you in."

Zhu Yefei had an innocent face, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, "Master Leng Pavilion, you...are you too heartless? How can I say that I am also concerned about King Jing'an's illness, and yet you say so for such kindness."

Condensing Yan didn't respond to Zhu Yefei's words, she just gave him a slight look.

Zhu Yefei, do you think I will think you are such a kind person?

Seeing that Ning Yan did not respond, Zhu Yefei paced leisurely in the room. Unlike the last time Ning Yan went to his house as a guest, Zhu Yefei really regarded himself as a Relaxed guests.

"Master Leng Pavilion, if the poison of King Jing'an can't be cured forever, and there is a day when he dies from the poison, what will you do? Presumably you won't send his coffin back to the imperial capital yourself, right? If you really If you do this, I'm afraid you will be implicated as well." Zhu Yefei fixed his eyes on an ancient painting on the wall, and said softly.

"Zhu Yefei, what do you mean?" Ning Yan heard these words harshly, wondering why this person likes to talk about tangled topics so much.

Zhu Yefei remained calm and natural, showing no signs of rushing.

"Hehe, Pavilion Master Leng, why are you angry? I was just joking, don't be angry."

Ning Yan was really helpless, she really didn't know what Zhu Yefei was here for, whether he was really here to help treat Nangong Jin or to make fun of her.

"Master Zhu." Ning Yan said softly.

"This time you came here at my invitation, I am very grateful, and thank you for the precious medicines you brought. But you have been delayed for a long time on my mountain, presumably your house also has a lot of things to deal with , if you are in a hurry, please go back first, and if there is any news about King Jing'an in the future, I will send someone to tell you." Obviously, Ning Yan issued an order to evict guests, after all, what Zhu Yefei said just now really made her Feeling slightly uncomfortable.

"Hehe..." Zhu Yefei who heard the words just smiled indifferently, as if he didn't care at all.

"Pavilion Master Leng, this statement is wrong. Since I have come here, I will definitely wait until King Jing'an is safe before leaving. If something really happens, I can help you."

Condensed Yan was speechless.

Does he want to stay here and not leave?This person is actually like this...

Looking at Zhu Yefei's unpredictable smile, Ning Yan really didn't know what to do with him, and even had some doubts whether this person was her destined enemy.

……

In the imperial palace of the Western Jin Kingdom, Wang Shangwuli and the master of the Hundred Poison Sect were together, discussing the situation for a few days, and at the same time thinking about how to do it next to be safer.

By the side of Ye Jige, the master of Hundred Poison Sect, several big disciples under him accompanied him, Zhao Shuo was also among them.

These people took turns to report the situation in Baidumen in the past few days. Ye Jige nodded slightly as he listened, and seemed very satisfied with the current situation in the city.

Helian Wuli sat on the throne with his hands on his forehead expressionless, and he didn't care about these things. Ever since the battle that day, when Ning Yan came forward to rescue Nangong Jin, his heart could no longer be calm, and he was always thinking about it. Looking at her, thinking about what she is doing now, and where she and Nangong Jin are...

It is precisely because of this that Ye Jige, the master of the Hundred Poison Sect, and his disciples did not pay any attention to the discussion. Today's discussion is just a pretense.

After Ye Jige listened to all the reports from his disciples, he looked around the crowd, feeling as if someone was missing...

"I don't seem to have seen Yue Xi in the past two days. Does any of you know what she is doing?"

Everyone present looked at each other, but no one answered.And Zhao Shuo's heart tightened slightly in the crowd...

Suddenly, he squeezed away the crowd, came to Ye Jige and bowed to salute.

"Master, Yue Xi has been feeling unwell for the past two days and is resting at her residence, so I didn't come here."

"Oh?" Ye Jige frowned upon hearing this, "What's wrong with her, is she seriously ill?"

"Back to the sect master, Yue Xi just caught the wind and cold occasionally, and he will recover soon, so don't worry about it, the sect master."

After hearing Zhao Shuo's words, Ye Jige was convinced, and he sighed softly, "Oh, it's hard for Yue Xi, maybe it's because he's overworked... Well, Zhao Shuo, you can help me. Tell Yue Xi to let her recuperate well, and I won't visit him anymore. You also know that things in the palace are quite busy. You and Yue Xi are the closest to each other on weekdays, so you can be regarded as helping her and taking time out to take care of."

After hearing Ye Jige's words, Zhao Shuo finally let go of the heart he had been holding on for a while, and hurriedly clasped his fists again.

"Master, don't worry, I will definitely take your words with you, and I will do my best to take good care of her. I believe she will recover soon."

Among all the people, only Zhao Shuo knew that Yue Xi was no longer in Chaoliang, the capital of the Western Jin Dynasty...

……

A steed galloped swiftly across the field, and on the horse's back was Nangong Yuexi dressed in black, in her arms, carefully carrying the antidote that was finally stolen from the Qixing Building that night.

It has been a day and a half since leaving Chaoliang, Nangong Yuexi silently calculated in his heart, according to this speed, he can reach Linglong Mountain tonight.

Brother Jin, please wait a little longer, I will deliver the antidote to you right away...

Nangong Yuexi hadn't rested or eaten for a long time, the hunger and exhaustion had already paralyzed her body and mind, but she didn't care about it at all.At this moment, in her mind, there is only Nangong Jin who is poisoned...

She didn't know if, as Zhao Shuo said, this time was really the last thing she would do for Nangong Jin.
