REINCARNATION GODDESS OF MEDICINE
64. Poisoning
"How do you feel ?" Chang Rui asked Nangong Li.
"Strength is down, I'll probably fall asleep for a moment. " Said Nangong Li weakly.
Chang Rui held the man's hand to convince Nangong Li, thinking of it as a good deed he had done to help Nangong Li.
Chang Rui looked around and before finally feeling that there was a strange air around here, it felt extremely cold.
The two of them were currently next to each other, on the bed. Isn't this a bit awkward and weird ?
Everyone knows that they are on good terms and they are a couple.
But, they both knew clearly that all of this was just a game played by the Palace side.
They are not really a couple like in general, they have their own paths and are not in the same ship.
Only, Nangong Li must not die at this time or she as Jiu Wangfei will be hunted by all parties for her death in order to show the loyalty she has to her husband.
Suddenly, an arrow pierced through the window and aimed at the heart of Nangong Li. Chang Rui immediately brought Nangong Li into his arms and the arrow grazed his hand which made his clothes tear and his arm bleed.
"Who's there ?!" Shouted Chang Rui taking out his short sword.
Chang Rui's shout made Long Yu and Zhang Yue who were standing guard in front instantly run in.
"Pursue them ! " Chang Rui's orders on a black shadow intending to leave.
But, seeing that it was impossible for Long Yu to catch up from Chang Rui threw his knife blade towards that black shadow and the black shadow fell down.
"See and interrogate the guy, find out who caused it !" Chang Rui's orders coldly.
"Yes, Wangfei. " Speak Long Yu and immediately walk away.
"Why did you choose to protect me instead of letting me die here ?" Nangong Li asked weakly.
"Hmph ! Even if I want you dead but not this time ! " Sniff Chang Rui while looking at his arm.
Chang Rui suddenly hissed and his vision became blurred and coughed up blood.
Chang Rui fell to his knees and clung to the edge of the bed and was helped by Zhang Yue to stand up.
"There's poison in that arrow. " Chang Rui said palely.
The deep pain gnawed at Chang Rui's body which made him grimace slightly.
"If Wangfei believes in me then I will help Wangfei to remove the poison, it's just that this way is difficult and painful. " Zhang Yue said.
Chang Rui did not have the strength to answer just slightly nodded his head.
Zhang Yue took out a set of his silver needles and started stabbing at the back of Chang Rui's hand with a needle.
His body was filled with sweat and unbearable pain felt in his body.
Chang Rui really wanted to shout but could not, probably because it had been dictated from small to have a thin face.
Thus, Chang Rui would find it difficult to admit what he felt from being embarrassed, this time it was the same, he could only endure all these ill feelings himself.
Zhang Yue himself was not easy either and continued to sweat coldly, but his hands did not dare to tremble in the slightest, Zhang Yue's gaze also did not switch since earlier from the back of Chang Rui's hand.
All this continued until the passing of midnight and Chang Rui coughed coughfully with black blood.
"Wangfei's body will turn weak for a few days and won't be able to use the body's lightening science. " Zhang Yue said.
"Damn it, it has to be at this point...... When I wanted to go to jail and this happened to me. " Chang Rui complained in a low tone.
Chang Rui clenched his hands tightly and stood up then lay down beside Nangong Li.
"Thank you for the help of Mr. Zhang. " Chang Rui said weakly.
Chang Rui nodded his head and intended to be at the very end before Nangong Li finally pulled Chang Rui.
"Wangye, what are you doing ?" Ask Chang Rui.
"You took advantage when I was weak by hugging me earlier, now I will repay you by hugging you back. " Said Nangong Li.
Chang Rui did not have the strength to resist with the poison that had just been released from his body, so obediently lay down inside Nangong Li's arms.
"Wangye, why is your body so cold ?" Ask Chang Rui.
"Okay, I don't understand either. " Answer Nangong Li.
Somehow, Chang Rui felt that it was all a lie, otherwise why did Nangong Li's tone carry a little doubt.
But, since Nangong Li did not want to say so then Chang Rui would not force it.
A day of peace like this will not be found twice, tomorrow whatever awaits him in the Palace prison.
"Wangye, what if I don't survive in the Palace's prison ?" Chang Rui asked nosily and was curious how Nangong Li's reaction would be.
"As long as I haven't allowed it, even the King of Hell can't take you. " Reply Nangong Li was still with his eyes closed.
"Too cocky..... " Lirih Chang Rui and wanted to laugh but couldn't.
Unknowingly, Chang Rui fell into a deep sleep and when it woke up it was already five in the morning, Nangong Li had already felt some of his strength return.
"Is it so comfortable to sleep in my arms that you keep trying to pretend to sleep and take advantage of me ?" Ask Nangong Li.
Chang Rui did not reply and just rolled his eyes, his entire body felt cold and staring around lazily.
Indeed, just as Zhang Yue had said, his current strength had weakened due to yesterday's intoxication.
"When I return, I will discuss this matter with Wangye. " Chang Rui said.
Nangong Li nodded his head then the door was knocked on and Long Yu brought in his sword with both hands.
"thank you. " Chang Rui said and took his sword.
"I'm sorry for not being able to retrieve any information from the person arrested yesterday !" Said Long Yu while kneeling.
"Oh ? Where is that guy ? "Ask Chang Rui.
"Wangfei, your body is weak. Are you sure you want to go to jail ?" Ask Long Yu.
"Let me accompany Wangfei, while you guard Master. " Said Zhang Yue who had appeared out of nowhere.
Chang Rui with Zhang Yue and a few other guards walked towards the damp dungeon.
Zhang Yue looked at Chang Rui and saw a cold look in the girl's eyes. Although it looks a bit disturbed by the condition here but not completely disturbed.
We were taken to a prison cell, where the man was covered in wounds but not badly.
"This guy doesn't want to say anything ? " Task Chang Rui.
"In reply to Wangfei, he simply said his name, Qiu Yong. " Said a prison guard.
"Oh, so your name is Qiu Yong. Are you still in contact with the previous Emperor ? Qiu Tian ? " Task Chang Rui with a cold smile.
The man looked nervous but Chang Rui had first kicked the man's face until his jaw was broken.
"Wangfei !" Zhang Yue said with a warning.
"He was trying to bite the poison stored in his teeth. " Chang Rui said his intention.
"Because now you can't even find a shortcut, then you better say everything well like a obedient son, otherwise don't blame me for being cruel. " Chang Rui said with a cold sneer.
