Chapter 91
Cheng Zijiang felt that he slept for a long time, and even had a long dream.

For a while, he dreamed that when he was very young, his mother urged him to practice riding and shooting.Once lost to the second prince of the same age, the queen mother flung her sleeves and left without even giving him an encouraging look.

After a while, she dreamed of the time when Shuxiang rescued him, she hugged herself recklessly to keep him warm.

For the first time in so many years, he felt that there was warmth in this world.

Cheng Zijiang was about to wake up in a dream, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Shuxiang's worried face.

His lips were bloodless from the cold, and his face was extremely pale.

Cheng Zijiang smiled and comforted her, "Maybe it's due to the use of internal strength these days, so the poison has deepened..."

He didn't want to tell her the truth, for fear that she would worry again.

But what he didn't know was that the girl already knew it well and looked into his eyes calmly.

"Don't lie." Shuxiang forced a smile, but didn't know that it was uglier than crying at the moment, "This is Gu poison, and it needs to be cured with the soul-stirring piano technique."

Cheng Zijiang was silent, and after a while he asked tentatively, "What did Yong Ye say?"

Shuxiang sniffed, "It's Chubai."

"You also believe Chubai's words?" Cheng Zijiang patted her head, "Idiot, that's a lie to you."

Scholar had expected him to say that, moved his hand away and said.

"I was poisoned by Gu when I was 15 years old. Is there really no other way except the soul-absorbing piano technique?"

When Cheng Zijiang heard it, he knew it by heart, Chu Bai must have told Shuxiang everything, and this lie cannot continue.

"There is no other way." Cheng Zijiang looked at Shuxiang with a smile, and his voice was as soft as a gust of wind.

Shuxiang lowered her head and heard her own voice: "I have the soul-hunting qin technique, but I don't know it yet."

Cheng Zijiang was obviously taken aback, how could that be? !
But Shuxiang would never lie to him about this kind of thing, and chose to trust her.

Cheng Zijiang smiled and comforted, "It's all right."

"I can't save you." Shuxiang finally couldn't hold back, buried her face in her palms and cried loudly.

Cheng Zijiang grabbed Shuxiang's shoulders, hugged her into his arms, and patted her on the back lightly: "I said it's fine, Shuxiang, don't blame yourself."

Shuxiang broke free from her embrace, her voice had changed, "There is one more thing, I promise to marry the prince."

Cheng Zijiang frowned: "So?"

Is Shuxiang really in love with Zhao Zheng?

"I will try my best to help you hold back the poison from spreading." Scholar paused, "Before I understand the technique of the soul-destroying piano."

Cheng Zijiang sneered, but looked so sad.

He closed his eyes: "You married him, so he agreed to help me control my illness?"

Shuxiang nodded in response: "Yes."

What he got in return was Cheng Zijiang's angry anger: "Zhao Shuxiang, I haven't reached that point yet."

He coughed, and continued, "I need to exchange my own woman for these."

Scholar's tears hadn't been wiped away yet, hearing what Cheng Zijiang said, he could only explain clearly.

"Zhao Gan hopes to use me to win you over. I don't want to be used by him, and I don't want you to deal with it." She looked at his haggard and angry appearance, "I didn't know you were the prince!"

Cheng Zijiang raised his hand to help her wipe away tears, and said softly, "I don't care, all I want is you."

"Let me tell you a story!" Shuxiang said with a smile.

"Once upon a time, there was a businessman whose son fell in love with a maidservant. After marrying the maidservant, the merchant's wife was dissatisfied with the status of the maidservant. While her son was out shopping, she poisoned the maidservant and buried her hastily. When the son came back, It is only said that the servant girl died of illness, and then married another daughter."

Cheng Zijiang rarely pretended to be stupid, "What story are you talking about? Why can't I understand?"

Scholar looked at him and smiled.

"I am that maidservant, you are the merchant's son, we will never have good results together."

Because of the difference in status, but also because the royal family is ruthless.
