Rebirth of the Merchant Girl

Chapter 248 What do you want?
Thinking of the two people who were testing the medicine, the young emperor turned his head to the black-faced guard and said, "They have taken the medicine, and the effect of the medicine must not have completely dissipated. Let them have bloodletting and bring them here."

He didn't stay in Qingxi Palace, and was quickly taken away by the black-faced guards.

Xie Yanniang hid behind the curtain, and now she dared to come out, her face full of surprise: "What does the emperor want to do, drink human blood?"

"As long as you can live, what's the point of drinking human blood?" Ruan Jingxin sneered, as expected of the late emperor and empress dowager's son, in order to survive, he casually disregarded human life.

In their view, people other than the two are just like ants, like livestock, they want to kill them immediately, without hesitation at all.

Xie Yanniang was shocked, two lives are nothing in the eyes of the young emperor?

She trembled, knowing that the crazy young emperor could not be stopped at all.

Slumped on the chair until late at night, the outside of the hall remained calm.

The young emperor never came back, which meant that the pain had stopped, and the two eunuchs and maids had long since died.

Xie Yanniang let out a sigh of relief, looked up at Ruan Jingxin who was beside her, saw him pursing his lips, and understood his intolerance.

The black-faced guard came in lightly from the window, and saluted Ruan Jingxin: "Return to the master, the emperor has calmed down. The eunuchs and maids were sent out of the palace with the blood of the wild cat mixed with the remaining pigs in the imperial dining room." Blood."

Hearing this, Xie Yanniang breathed a sigh of relief, the two lives were finally saved.

Ruan Jingxin nodded, knowing that the dark guards were always neat and tidy, with a wave of his hand, the black-faced guards left.

I don't know how long the wild cat's blood can last, Xie Yanniang rubbed her eyes, Ruan Jingxin saw her, and lay down with her arms around her: "Go to sleep, tomorrow will be the highlight, you can't miss it."

Xie Yanniang nodded, pillowed on his arm, curled up into a ball, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

Ruan Jingxin stared at her helplessly, and fell asleep so quickly beside him.

Thinking that after the wedding night of the two of them was interrupted by the young emperor, they would never have another chance.

Once the matter is settled this time, the matter of the bridal chamber should be brought to the forefront.

Ruan Jingxin couldn't help but curl his mouth when he thought that a white daughter like Xie Yanniang would act like a baby in front of him.

He always thought that he would never get married, and he had too many burdens on his shoulders, and he kept fighting on the battlefield.

Who knows if one day, I will be like those soldiers before and never come back again.

But Xie Yanniang let herself break the precept, thinking that one day, Xie Yanniang would sleep in the arms of another man, Ruan Jingxin felt uncomfortable all over.

Since you can't let go, stay by your side.

Sure enough, his decision was right.

As long as Xie Yanniang is here, Ruan Jingxin feels that the violence in his heart gradually calms down.

When he thought of the blood remaining in his body, he couldn't help frowning in disgust.

In fact, there is no difference between himself and that young emperor, and he still treats human life indifferently.

The two of them are indeed... brothers?

Xie Yanniang was woken up amidst the noise, the mattress beside her was already empty, her little hand reached over, it was cold, it was obvious that Ruan Jingxin had been up for a long time.

Hearing the noise outside, she hurriedly got up and dressed, and sneaked out to look around.

Not only the young emperor came, but also many imperial guards behind him.

His weak voice sounded in the hall, with boundless anger: "If the ghost doctor doesn't hand over the pill today, I will be rude to you."

The young emperor was already on the verge of collapse. After drinking the blood, he could only last for two hours. After that, the pain came back again, even worse than before.

He tossed and turned on the dragon couch all night, if the dark guards hadn't tried their best to suppress the pain with acupuncture, it is estimated that the young emperor would break into Qingxi Hall in the middle of the night.

But after dawn, the young emperor couldn't bear it any longer, so he simply brought the Imperial Forest Army to embolden himself.

No matter how powerful the ghost doctor is, he only has one pair of hands. It's hard to believe that so many imperial guards can't deter him.

Seeing that the other party was still shaking his head while wearing a cloak, the young emperor was about to go crazy.He only felt the pain gradually cruising from his lower abdomen to his whole body, and he was almost unable to stand still.

He pushed away the hidden guard beside him, fell to the ground and kept rolling, with a grim face, and kept banging his head against the wall.

It hurts too much, like thousands of ants burrowing under the skin and gnawing on it bit by bit.

The small pain was like a stream, gradually converging into a river, making the young emperor tremble all over, and his face was as white as paper.

Seeing this, the imperial guards were all taken aback.

You hurriedly invited the imperial doctor to see him, but the imperial doctor shook his head after feeling the pulse: "The emperor's illness... I really can't see it, but if this continues, the emperor is afraid that he will hurt himself."

He signaled the black-faced guards to knock the young emperor unconscious, but he heard the young emperor say viciously: "I don't know what to do with the imperial doctor who can't heal, drag him out and behead him!"

The Imperial Forest Army looked at each other in blank dismay, and still dragged the imperial physician out, and heard the imperial physician's screams from afar, but stopped silently.

Only then did the young emperor feel a little more comfortable, and slowly sat up with his arms folded: "The ghost doctor turned back on what he said, and I was really disappointed. Although the ghost doctor is very powerful, my Imperial Forest Army is not a vegetarian. It’s my fault for being rude.”

He swept towards the inner hall, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "Even if the ghost doctor is not for himself, he has to think about the princess. I don't want to see that the princess has not remarried and is going to be a widow again."

Xie Yanniang let out a "bah" inwardly, the young emperor said it grandly, but in fact it was only for himself, dare to curse the regent?

Seeing the other party gesture a few times, the young emperor hesitated for a while, and finally let the imperial forest army retreat outside the hall, and walked slowly to the front of the hall.If there is something wrong, he will leave Qingxi Palace immediately.

He didn't believe that with so many guards outside the hall, the ghost doctor would openly attack him!
The other party did not make a move, but stretched out his hand to untie the cloak, revealing his hidden face: "Your Majesty, are you all right?"

After taking off the human skin mask, the regent's handsome face was revealed, and the young emperor was shocked: "Why are you here... No, it's not a ghost doctor, it's you?"

Has the real ghost doctor been eliminated by the regent long ago?

Just thinking about it like this, the young emperor felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

If so, is he hopeless?
Even the imperial doctor was helpless, all the young emperor's hopes rested on the ghost doctor alone.

Who would have thought that the ghost doctor had changed now, which made him feel terrified!

"Your majesty, don't worry, the ghost doctor is still fine. I'll just come here on his behalf so that the emperor won't go to Ghost Valley again and disturb his cleanliness." Ruan Jingxin smiled, waved back, Xie Yanniang walked to his side.

The young emperor sneered, no wonder the ghost doctor took an extra look at the princess as soon as he arrived, it was clear that the regent was worried about Xie Yanniang, so he put her under his nose: "The princess is also my cousin, but her arm Turning outside, you already knew that the person in front of you was not a ghost doctor, but you didn't tell me?"

Xie Yanniang raised her eyebrows, his censure was surprising.

Obviously it was the young emperor who sent the person to the ghost doctor and made a deal regardless of his own wishes, but now he is rightly blaming her.

She has opened her eyes, the only one who can be so brazen is the young emperor in front of her.

"What did the emperor say? It was the emperor who asked me to enter the palace, and it was the emperor who sent me to Qingxi Palace. In the end, it was the emperor who told me that it was not a ghost doctor but the regent. Why did the emperor start to blame me?" Xie Yanniang saw the young emperor's face sullen, and said coldly: "Eldest Princess doesn't know how much to worry about, won't the emperor feel uneasy when he says this?"

"Conscience? What is that, I don't need it at all." The young emperor thought that the elixir he took might have been written by the regent, otherwise he wouldn't be so uncomfortable.

He frowned and asked, "What do you want, Prince Regent, so that you can give me the real antidote?"

"Will the emperor agree to any request?" Ruan Jingxin twitched his lips and said, "You don't have to worry, what you took is the antidote, but it's only a part of the antidote. Who made the emperor suspicious and divided the antidote out?" , now that I have eaten all the pills in the porcelain bottle, the attack will not be so severe."

The young emperor's face became ferocious, and it was his suspicion that kept him alive.

Now the regent is obviously laughing at his suspiciousness, almost killing himself!

The young emperor clenched his hands tightly into fists, so what if he let the regent be proud for a while, there will be plenty of opportunities for revenge in the future!

"I will never give up the throne," only this point, the young emperor will never compromise.

"I have no interest in the throne, the emperor can rest assured." After Ruan Jingxin finished speaking, the young emperor's eyes lit up. Obviously, this answer was the most pleasing to his heart.

Ruan Jingxin sneered inwardly. Just like that man, the young emperor's obsession with power and status has been deeply rooted in his bones.Anything can be sacrificed for them.

"Then what do you want, wealth? A title?" The young emperor wondered, the regent was already a master.To put it bluntly, except for him, basically no one is above the regent.

Wealth, status, and the regent are all there, what else do you want?
Ruan Jingxin did not answer him directly: "I will give the emperor the antidote, but there is only one bottle. I am not lying, the antidote is difficult to prepare, and the ghost doctor only gave me two bottles when I came. The emperor has already used up one bottle. Another bottle can't be wasted, otherwise I have nothing to do."

Without further ado, he handed over the porcelain bottle, and the black-faced guard stepped forward to take it back, and nodded to the young emperor.

Knowing that the pill was the same as the last time, Young Emperor felt certain, took the pill handed over by the dark guard and swallowed it first.

After a while, the pain in his body gradually dissipated, he breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately turned his head to analyze the current situation.

But Ruan Jingxin said again: "If this bottle of medicine is taken quickly, it can be finished in seven days. It's just that the ghost doctor once said that the next bottle of medicine will take at least one month to finish."

The young emperor's face turned dark immediately, one month, doesn't that mean that there will be nearly 20 days in the middle, and he will be in pain?

"Your Majesty, take it easy and eat, you can get through it." Ruan Jingxin put on the human skin mask again, and led Xie Yanniang out.

The young emperor didn't want to let the regent leave like this, and was about to ask the guards outside the hall to stop him, when he heard Ruan Jingxin lightly said: "No one can enter the ghost valley except me. If I get even the slightest injury, the ghost doctor will come It will destroy the half-finished pill. I have nothing to do, but I feel sorry for the emperor."
