The prince is sick: it is too enchanting to marry the princess

Chapter 116 It Was Me
Ji Qingxue has been shocked by many things today, why she never knew about them?

Ji Qingling hugged Aunt Yu, tears streaming down her face, Li Hua looked pitiful in the rain: "Mother, am I really not Daddy's daughter?"

Aunt Yu felt a dull pain in her chest. Ji Qingling had always been her pride, and she also hoped that she could give her all the best things in this world.

For the sake of her daughter, she had to fight, that's why she resented Hua Minrou even more, for always being so noble and inviolable.

Aunt Yu turned her head to look at Ji Lin, opened and closed her lips, and it took her a long time to say: "Since you know, why didn't you drive me out of the prime minister's residence?"

Ji Lin seemed to have heard some joke: "I only have Si Ruo in my heart, and who you are with has nothing to do with me."

Ji Lin said this very heartlessly, like a sharp sword piercing straight into Aunt Yu's chest.

"Then what if I killed Hua Minrou? Don't you care?" Aunt Yu growled in despair.

Ji Lin was taken aback, he raised his hand and grabbed Aunt Yu's neck fiercely, and said with a ferocious face, "I hate it, of course I hate it, I wish I could cut you into pieces! But I have to protect my daughter, so I have to keep you One life."

Ji Lin's words were inexplicable, and Ji Qingxue walked forward unconsciously: "What are you talking about?"

For the first time in his life, Ji Lin looked at Ji Qingxue with such loving eyes: "After so many years, I have endured so many years and finally waited until my daughter grew up safely."

Ji Qingxue stood where she was, letting Ji Lin grab her shoulders, seeing him tearful, Ji Qingxue was flustered.

"Back then, Nangong Xuan and I planned to enter Liusheng Valley. When I saw your mother for the first time, she was standing in front of the cabin. At that moment, I felt as if I saw a fairy descending from the earth."

Thinking of the scene at that time, Ji Lin's expression was so gentle that water could drip out.

Nan Gongyan can roughly guess that the purpose of his father and Ji Lin's entry into Liusheng Valley should be for the treasure house in the legend of the Wuling tribe.

"So you and my father took away the most honorable Wuxian and Saintess in the Wuling Clan, right?"

"Originally, our purpose was to obtain the secret of the Wuling clan's treasure without a single soldier, but it's a thousand calculations..."

Nan Gongyan took the words for him logically: "But you never expected to fall in love with A Xue's mother."

Originally, it was just to use, but I never thought that a little sincerity would be born in the process.

"Siruo is the most beautiful, kind, and stubborn woman I have ever seen in this world. Originally, we could be together happily and enjoy our family happiness, but all of this was ruined by your father. Already!"

Ji Lin looked at Nangongyan with fierce eyes, Ji Qingxue subconsciously stood in front of Nangongyan, Ji Lin stared at her blankly: "Qingxue, his father ruined our family, you still want to Are you protecting him?"

Until now, Ji Qingxue can vaguely guess the hidden story behind this, but Nangongyan is Nangongyan, how can he be the same as his father?

"If you still recognize my daughter, tell me what happened back then!" Ji Qingxue didn't like the feeling of being kept in the dark.

"It all started when Nangong Xuanta discovered the medicine of immortality. At that time, he tricked Yushang, took the prescription from her, refined the medicine, and then distributed it to a group of soldiers."

Everything went smoothly at first, and the soldiers who took the medicine would become extremely brave and their strength would greatly increase, and they could go on without rest for several days.But after half a month, they discovered that these soldiers had all died one by one.

Ji Qingxue saw that Nan Gongyan didn't seem to understand it very well, so she explained: "This kind of elixir actually just destroys the five senses of a person, so that people won't feel tired, hungry, and even less painful, so this way Soldiers don't need to rest. But this is just consuming their vitality ahead of time, like a candle that burns for a while before it goes out."

"But what does this have to do with my mother's death?"

What Nan Gongyan didn't understand before finally had an answer: "Because the prescription of the elixir is incomplete."

Ji Lin nodded: "Nangongxuan found out that the prescription was incomplete, so he went to ask Chu Yushang for the complete prescription, but at that time, Chu Yushang had already seen through his ambition, and he didn't want him to commit more crimes, let alone ..."

Ji Qingxue said subconsciously: "What's more, this prescription was already incomplete when it was handed down from the first patriarch."

"That's right. But he didn't want to believe it. He imprisoned Chu Yushang, and even sent eagle-eyed secret guards to monitor the prime minister's residence all day long."

Hua Minrou is Wu Xian of the Wuling Clan, and Chu Yushang is a saint. They have a high status in the clan. If anyone can get access to this prescription, then apart from the patriarch, they are the only two left, Nangong Xuan firmly believes.The prescription must be hidden in the two of them.

"Nangongyan, haven't you thought about why you have been carrying cold poison in your body since you were born?"

Nangong Yan said coolly: "It's because the father poisoned the mother and the concubine."

At that time, Chu Yushang was still pregnant, so some of the toxin remained in Nangongyan's body. It can be seen how deeply Chu Yushang was poisoned, and Nangongxuan was such a ruthless person.

"After Chu Yushang died, Nangong Xuan turned all his eyes to Si Ruo."

Nangongxuan asked Ji Lin to monitor Hua Minrou, and set out the location and prescription of the Wuling tribe's treasure.

"I can't let Nangong Xuan find out that I have two hearts for him, otherwise, not only will Si Ruo's life be lost, but the entire Prime Minister's Mansion will also be implicated?"

Hearing this, Aunt Yu understood: "So you rescued me from the brothel and brought me back to the mansion. It was just a pretense. You want to divert the emperor's attention and show him deliberately, just to let him know that you don't love me at all. Hua Minrou."

Ji Qingxue looked at Ji Lin and was so shocked that she couldn't even utter a word. Could this be the truth?
"Then why do you keep me in the mansion for so long when you clearly know that I killed Hua Minrou?"

This is what Ji Qingxue wanted to ask, not only Ji Qingxue, but even Aunt Yu couldn't figure it out.

Why?Yes, why is this?Ji Lin muttered to himself, because he planned this incident at all!

"In the seventh year after Qingxue was born, Si Ruo encountered an assassin in the mansion, and she was seriously injured. Originally, with her martial arts, no one could hurt her. It was because of her constitution that she was not suitable for childbearing. , but she still risked her life to give birth to Qingxue, making her physique worse and greatly weakening her skill, otherwise, how could she only have one year of life left!"

Ji Lin knew that this assassination incident was a warning from Nangong Xuan. Nangong Xuan had lost his patience. If he could no longer get back the treasure map and prescription for him, he would attack the Prime Minister's Mansion.

That day, Hua Minrou begged him for a long time, she had only one year to live, if sacrificing her alone could save the entire Prime Minister's Mansion, then her death was worth it.

But Ji Lin refused to agree no matter what, he said to Hua Minrou: "Siruo, we can take Qingxue and leave Dayan, we can go anywhere! As long as the three of us stay together!"

But Hua Minrou knew that as long as she was alive, Nangong Xuan would not give up and would definitely send someone to hunt them down. Even if they could leave Dayan safely, they would live in the shadow of being hunted down for the rest of their lives.

Hua Minrou took Ji Lin's hand, with deep affection and nostalgia in his eyes: "Sir, please protect our daughter."

Ji Lin was heartbroken, he just wanted to live a simple life with his wife and daughter, why did God refuse to grant him even this wish.

While crying, Ji Lin said, "Siruo, maybe I committed too many sins in the past, so God wants to punish me like this, so that I will never be happy for the rest of my life."

Hua Minrou gently pressed against Ji Lin's chest, feeling his warmth: "In the next life, I will wait for you in the Voice Valley."

Aunt Yu and the others were already stunned by the truth of the matter, and Ji Qingxue never imagined that such a big secret was hidden behind the whole matter.

"That's why Siruo and I made this plan. I deliberately showed my affection to Siruo in front of you, but you were unwilling to do so, and in a fit of rage, you really wanted to kill Siruo."

Ji Lin spoke word by word, reopening this past event was like opening his wound again, it was bloody, and made him in agony.

"When you set the fire that day, Si Ruo used a little soul-enhancing technique on you, and you just walked into the trap we set up step by step."

Ji Qingxue suddenly thought: "You were the one who carried me out of my mother's room that day!"

She choked on too much smoke in the fire, passed out during the cutscene, and when she woke up, she stayed in her room.

Ji Lin looked at Ji Qingxue with some distress. Her appearance was unexpected. He and Hua Minrou originally wanted to create a fire to make Hua Minrou disappear from this world, but Ji Qingxue's sudden appearance disrupted the situation. their plans.

In order to save Ji Qingxue, Hua Minrou was hit by a beam that broke suddenly.

Ji Qingxue's memory seemed to come back to life in an instant, she opened her eyes wide, and tears rolled down her face: "Mother was trying to save me, it was me... who killed my mother!"

Ji Qingxue's legs went limp, but fortunately Nangongyan supported her in time, the huge blow made Ji Qingxue a little unbearable, she firmly grasped Nangongyan's arm: "Nangongyan, my mother's death was caused by me, it was I made it!"

Nan Gongyan patted her on the shoulder and comforted her constantly: "No, it's not your fault, no!"

Seeing how Ji Qingxue blamed himself so much, Ji Lin felt even more distressed: "Son, it's none of your business, it's because dad didn't protect you two well!"

Later, the reason why he ignored Ji Qingxue was because he was afraid that Nangong Xuan would threaten him with a child again, so he could only pretend that he didn't care about her daughter at all.

No one knew how distressed he was, so he could only sneak a look at Ji Qingxue in the dead of night.

Because she was the only daughter Si Ruo left for him, even if she made her hate him, even if he tried his best, he still had to protect her.
