After Gao married the prince, the sick and weak concubine lost her horse

Shen Qingci and Sheng Tingye walked day and night for five days from the capital of the king of Chu to the border of Qi and Chu.

With their return, news from all parties in the Qi country also poured in like snowflakes.

Sheng Tingye had guessed most of the content.

However, it still somewhat exceeded his and Shen Qingci's expectations.

This variable is Sheng Tingyun, the eldest son of the emperor born by Concubine Yao Shu.

He lost his qualifications for the reserve very early due to a broken leg.

Over the years, he has already faded out of court and public view.

As one of the four major families, the Yao family, although still standing, has also withdrawn from the center of the storm of vying for favor and succession.

Unexpectedly, after the Yunzhou Incident, Sheng Tingyun, who was not favored by everyone and had lost the qualification to win the heir, became the biggest winner.

The second prince, Sheng Tingjing, hoarded troops privately in an attempt to conspire against him, which is an unforgivable crime.

The fifth prince Sheng Tingzhao... Even though the royal family concealed his identity in order to hide his shame, the news of his murder of his brothers and sisters has been released. Not only has he lost his inheritance qualification, but now he has even become a key criminal wanted by the court.

As for Sheng Tingye, the court gave the statement that he went to Yunzhou to quell the rebellion under the emperor's order, but was planned by Sheng Tingjing and Sheng Tingzhao successively, and finally fell into the glacier with several arrows and died.

There are only so few descendants of today's saints.

Leaving aside the few who had the accident, the remaining sons are the eldest son Sheng Tingyun, and the ninth prince Sheng Tingyi.

The former has physical defects, while the latter is still young.

It doesn't look like someone who can take up the burden now.

But there is a taller one among the dwarfs.

With no other choice, compared to Sheng Tingyi, who is still young and has no certainty about his future, it is obvious that Sheng Tingyi is excellent in all aspects, but Sheng Tingyi, who is lame, obviously has an advantage.

What's more, what people have always ignored is that the Yao family is still standing behind him.

During the period when Sheng Tingye and Shen Qing resigned from the capital of Chu King, Sheng Tingyi had already been reused by the sage and named Duan Wang.

The Yao family, which had always been secretive before, gradually became more active in the court.

Shen Qingci leaned against Sheng Tingye and read those secret reports, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Is this the mantis catching the cicada and the oriole behind?"

She thought Sheng Tingye was the oriole.

Now it seems that there are still people standing behind them.

"Is it possible that General Qin has something to do with them?"

Sheng Tingye frowned slightly, he raised his hand and rubbed his temples, and said in a tired tone: "In my impression, elder brother is not such a person."

"Of course, people are the best at pretending, and people's hearts can change."

Sheng Tingye looked at the pile of secret reports thoughtfully.

Shen Qingci had never met the eldest son of the emperor who had always lived in seclusion, the eldest brother Sheng Tingye spoke of.

But seeing Sheng Tingye showing such an expression was completely different from the indifference and indifference he showed when he met Sheng Tingjing and Sheng Tingzhao.

She said nothing more and just waited for them to return to Beijing before making any judgment.

This time they went back to Nanjin Pass.

Before passing the test, Sheng Tingye received a tip from the secret guard.

Sheng Tingye's people found Qin Chao.

To be precise, it was Qin Chao who took the initiative to find Sheng Tingye's eyeliner who had stayed at Nanjing Pass to seek asylum.

After receiving this news, the two of them did not say anything after they entered Nanjin Pass, and they found Sheng Tingye's secret stronghold in Nanjin Pass all the way.

A pawn shop.

The contact person in charge of this stronghold is named Zheng Lu, and he is a shrewd middle-aged man.

After seeing Sheng Tingye, he hastily and carefully invited the two of them into the backyard.

There, Shen Qingci and Sheng Tingye saw Qin Chao who was poisoned and comatose.

Zheng Lu said in great panic: "All the major pharmacies in the city have eyeliners staring at them, and their subordinates dare not act rashly. They only asked our own people who know some medical skills to look at it. This is the vicious and weird little general Qin. , they have nothing to do."

"The subordinate was still hesitating whether to take the risk, but the master actually came."

I don't know if it was because he had been soaked in the water for too long. Qin Chao's body was white and swollen, and his clothes were almost bursting.

If it wasn't for Shen Qingci's deep impression on him because of Qin Jiaojiao's relationship, he would almost not recognize him.

The originally handsome facial features were now swollen in one place.

He lay upright on the bed, his whole body was full of breath.

His face was pale, but his lips were purple.Even if he didn't know much about medicine, Shen Qingci could tell that he was poisoned, and he couldn't last long.

Sheng Tingye went to check his pulse, and checked the arrow wounds in front of him.

"When did you find him?"

Zheng Lu said truthfully: "Just the day before yesterday, he came here with a batch of goods brought from the capital by his subordinates."

"At that time, he was barely able to hold on, and even said a few words to his subordinates, but before the subordinates asked him, he passed out and passed out, and he still hasn't woken up yet."

Seeing that the big brother next door who used to be generous and warm has become like this now, Shen Qingci's heart is already unhappy.

Before Sheng Tingye could speak, she asked anxiously, "What did he say?"

Zheng Lu lowered his head, not daring to take another look at Shen Qingci, but said honestly, "Save A Yuan."

"Both sentences are the same."

A Yuan?

Shen Qingci was puzzled, she had never heard of Qin Jiaojiao.

But seeing that Qin Chao only thought about that person in such a situation, it should be very important.

She asked Zheng Lu with her eyes.

Zheng Lu is worthy of being the person in charge of a stronghold, Shen Qingci only gave a look, and he has already opened his mouth very actively.

"I sent someone to inquire. She is the daughter of a military doctor named Xu Jinshan under General Qin's command. She was very close to General Qin before. The two of them are probably..."

Zheng Lu gestured, and Shen Qingci understood.

"What about her?"

Zheng Lu shook his head: "A few days ago, she just followed Xu Jinshan back to her hometown to visit her relatives, but she hasn't returned yet. The younger one also sent someone to look for her, but there is no news yet."

In other words, there are no clues for the time being.

Here Sheng Tingye has seen Qin Chao's injuries, and is wiping his hands with a handkerchief.

Taking advantage of Zheng Lu turning around to fetch water, Shen Qingci lowered his voice and said nervously, "How is he? Can my blood save him?"

Hearing this, Sheng Tingye's face darkened, and he said in a cold tone, "No need."

Although he didn't say anything, Shen Qingci clearly felt that he seemed a little angry.

why?
But seeing that he was already starting to write the prescription, Shen Qingci didn't want to disturb him.

Only waiting for him to finish his work and take her back to the room to rest, Shen Qingci couldn't hold back: "Are you sure?"

"If something happens to him, Gillian and Godmother will definitely not be able to bear it."

"It's better to use my blood, maybe the detoxification will be faster..."

Before Shen Qingci finished rambling, Sheng Tingye pinched his chin.

The door was slammed shut, and he pinned her against the door.

Before Shen Qingci could react, his deep eyes had already landed on Shen Qingci's lips.

"Why bother Madam when things can be solved with medicinal materials?"

"Or, Madam feels that her blood is inexhaustible, so she doesn't need to care about her body at all?"

Shen Qingci only thought about saving people, so he didn't care about so much.

Moreover, in her opinion, no matter how powerful the poison was, it could not compare to what Sheng Tingye and Xiao Qinglan had been poisoned before.

How much blood can be used from her?

She is not a delicate little girl, a little blood, a cut, a little pain, it doesn't matter.

She didn't care about it herself, but Sheng Tingye did.

From his tone, he was obviously annoyed by her nonchalant attitude.

Knowing that Qin Chao was fine, Shen Qingci felt relieved.

Facing Sheng Tingye's deep eyes, she waved her hand with some guilt: "It's nothing."

However, without waiting for her to finish speaking, Sheng Tingye cut her hands behind his back, and his other hand also began to groan.

Sensing the obvious changes in his body, Shen Qingci's heart rang alarm bells.

But before she could speak, Sheng Tingye had already leaned over and kissed her.

Before her chaotic brain completely lost the ability to think, she only heard Sheng Tingye whispering in her ear: "Since Madam is so willing to help and save others, why not treat me first."

Shen Qingci: "!!!" (End of chapter)
