Chapter 20 Dead Leaf Insects

Chapter 20 Dead Leaf Insects

War Palace.

After Xia Qingge arrived with Su Yi, she reported her identity, and handed over the Mo Yu given by Mingzun to the guard at the gate.

Not long after, the housekeeper of Zhanwang Mansion rushed out to welcome him.

"Miss Xia, please come inside."

"It's work."

Xia Qingge remained calm on the surface, and followed the butler into the door with a plain heart, but secretly marveled at Mingzun's ability.

The Zhanwang Mansion is very large, but it doesn't look impetuous and luxurious. The layout is clean and tidy, and there are not many people waiting on it.

At first glance, it is comfortable.

The housekeeper led Xia Qingge all the way into the front hall, and then he spoke.

"Miss Xia, wait a moment, the prince will be here in a while."

With that said, the housekeeper withdrew, and a 40-year-old nanny came in with tea.

Be respectful but not courteous, humble but not humble.

Looking at the nose and eyes, looking at the heart, Xia Qingge looked at the waiters in Zhan Wang's mansion, and couldn't help but look at Ye Tian more highly.

It took about a cup of tea before Ye Tianjue appeared.

Xia Qingge looked over.

Sword eyebrows are slightly raised, star eyes are sharp, nose bridge is high, thin lips are slightly raised, Ye Tianjue has a handsome face, matched with a moon-white brocade robe embroidered with cloud patterns, clean and leisurely, with a look of "Mo Shangren is like jade, The feeling of being unparalleled in the world".

Even if he is sitting in a wheelchair, his demeanor is not diminished.

"See the prince," Xia Qingge bowed and saluted.

"Ah."

With a faint reply, Ye Tianjue's face remained calm, and he turned the wheelchair to the main seat.

"Miss Xia is here, why?"

Xia Qingge was not in a hurry to respond, her eyes fixed on Ye Tianjue without blinking.

That gaze is extremely aggressive.

If it were someone else, Ye Tianjue would have thrown him out.

But who made her different?
His face was pale, Ye Tian remained calm, he wanted to see what Xia Qingge could see?
Soon, Xia Qingge withdrew her gaze, took a sip of tea, and then said, "My lord, the poison won't go away, and the night will be restless."

Hearing this, Ye Tianjue paused when he knocked on the table.

Did she see it?Or, based on the eternal flower mentioned last night, guess it?
Ye Tianjue frowned and remained silent.

Xia Qingge was not in a hurry, "I heard that the prince went to many places in the early years of the Southern and Northern Wars. I wonder if the prince has ever been to Linbo?"

"How have you been?"

"Qingge heard that there is an unnamed mountain at the junction of Linbo and Xueyan. The unnamed mountain does not grow any grass all the year round. Only a dead tree grows on the shady cliff. It is said that every August [-]th, the dead tree weeps. , the blood-red teardrops are soaked on the tree trunk, it is a strange sight, I wonder if it is true?"

Xia Qingge spoke these words very slowly.

However, the eloquent words were full of confidence.

She was convinced that the residual poison on Ye Tianjue's legs was dead leaf insects.

And this dead leaf worm is a kind of blood worm nourished by the blood-red tears that flow down from the dead tree on the Wuming Mountain. Unlike the blood-eating grass, it will swallow the blood in the human body little by little. It looked even more hideous and terrifying.

Because of this poison, the wound is extremely difficult to heal.

Not to mention the pain and sleeplessness, the wound burst on the [-]th of each month, the blood flow continued, and the muscles atrophied from the wound to the outside, until the whole person withered like a dead tree, it was terrible.

Ye Tianjue was poisoned for two years.

Xia Qingge could imagine what kind of pain it was.

But she couldn't imagine how strong a heart must be to make him so calm in pain?

Just thinking about it, Xia Qingge heard Ye Tianjue speak...
