Chapter 540 Forget (Part )
"No." Lian Zhou was also very aware of how difficult this matter was, and his expression was serious. "What is certain at the moment is that no one has entered the cell where they are being held recently, but just half an hour ago, several people died one after another, in less than a quarter of an hour. When the jailer found them, no one was left alive."

Because of their special status, those Nanhu swordsmen have been kept in strict custody, and even officials from the Ministry of Justice may not be able to contact them.

Who would have thought that such an accident would happen!

Shen Yanchuan immediately turned around and his eyes met Ye Chutang's for a moment.

"I'll go over and take a look. You should have a good rest."

Ye Chutang nodded: "It's a cold and windy night, be careful, my lord."

When something like this happens, there is really no time to waste.

Xiaowu, who was in the house, seemed to have heard the noise outside and ran out with his short legs.

——Is Prince leaving now?
She looked up at her elder sister with some curiosity.

——It seems like they haven’t finished talking just now!

Ye Chutang patted her little head: "The prince has something urgent to deal with."

Xiaowu seemed to understand but not quite.

——Okay then! Sister said it was an urgent matter, so it must be very important!
She gave Shen Yanchuan a big smile, then folded her hands, held her round belly and bowed.

——Goodbye, Prince Brother!
Shen Yanchuan curled his lips and said, "No need to see me off."

After that, he turned and left.

As he walked out, he ordered Lian Zhou: "Go to the Dali Temple and retrieve all their previous files."

Lian Zhou's expression became serious: "Yes!"

The deaths of those Nanhu swordsmen were mysterious, and it was obvious that someone had come prepared, so the files related to them are even more important!

If those are lost too, there will be more trouble!

The two men arrived outside the gate of Ye's mansion. Lian Zhou bowed and said goodbye, then turned and headed towards the Dali Temple. His figure quickly disappeared into the night.

Shen Yanchuan jumped on his horse and looked into the distance in the direction of the Ministry of Justice prison.

There are no stars or moon tonight, and everything is shrouded in the dark night.

He pulled on the reins.

"drive!"

……

The sound of horse hooves outside gradually faded away, and finally it became completely quiet.

Ye Chutang turned around and the wooden box came into view again.

Xiaowu followed her gaze, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.

She was in the inner room and didn't hear clearly what the prince and her elder sister talked about just now, but they seemed to have mentioned that the gift was very precious.

Just as she tilted her head to think, Ye Chutang turned around and went into the inner room.

Huh?
Sister, won’t you keep this gift?
Xiao Wu was about to follow when he saw Ye Chutang coming out again.

Only this time, there was one more thing in her hand - a mortar.

Xiaowu became more and more puzzled. What did her sister do with this?
The next moment, she saw Ye Chutang open the wooden box.

A piece of crystal clear ice lies quietly in it.

Ye Chutang took out the block of ice, and Xiaowu finally saw the snowflake frozen in the middle of the ice.

Her little mouth opened wide.

flower!
The prince actually gave my sister a flower! ?
Before Xiaowu could react, Ye Chutang had already taken out the tools, rolled up his sleeves, and broke the ice into pieces!

KENG——Crack!

The ice instantly cracked with a clear crack!

Xiaowu was completely confused and just stared blankly.

Ye Chutang lowered his brows and eyes, but he looked very careful and serious.

Qianchongxue has special medicinal properties. Once it encounters heat, its effect will be greatly reduced.

Therefore, this method is the most appropriate. After a while, the ice has broken into many small pieces.

Ye Chutang poured all the frozen snow in the middle into the mortar, making a clanging sound.

In just a few moments, her hands were already red from being frozen by the ice.

But she did not stop. Her jade-white hands grasped the pestle and began to pound the medicine - oh no, pounding the ice.

Xiaowu was already stunned.

But she was very smart. When she saw Ye Chutang doing this, she quickly guessed that the flower was actually medicine.

She had seen her elder sister handle medicinal herbs in this way many times before, but this was the first time she had seen them frozen in ice.

Ye Chutang moved quickly and efficiently, and in no time he had ground it into powder.

A clear and fragrant scent gradually emanated - that was the scent of Qian Chongxue.

Finally, Ye Chutang poured it into a bone china bowl.

Just a small bowl of finely chopped white food.

No one would think it is anything special.

Who would have thought how much it would cost to get a small bowl like this.

Xiaowu came over curiously and sniffed hard. He felt that the faint fragrance was something he had never smelled before and was particularly refreshing.

It seems like the whole person feels much more comfortable.

In surprise, she turned her head to look at Ye Chutang, with a hint of worry in her eyes.

——What’s wrong with sister? Why does she need to take medicine?
Ye Chutang noticed her uneasiness and smiled: "It's just a medicine to replenish your blood and qi. You won't be so afraid of the cold after taking it."

Xiaowu's eyes lit up: Really!? That's great!

Ah Jie's hands and feet were always cold, especially in the autumn and winter. She slept with her every day and knew that sometimes even a heater was of little use.

It would be a great thing if I could really make my sister no longer afraid of the cold!

She urged Ye Chutang to use it quickly.

Ye Chutang warmed his hands in his sleeves, and when they were slightly warmer, he gently scratched her nose.

"There's no need to tell your third and fourth brothers about this, so as to avoid causing them unnecessary worries."

Xiaowu nodded obediently.

Ye Chutang took a spoon and used the small bowl of fine white crushed ice.

It was extremely cold at first, and then a blazing burning sensation suddenly began to burn along the throat!

Ye Chutang shuddered slightly, and his originally fair face suddenly turned red!
Then, there came a fine and dense pain that spread from the inside out!

Ye Chutang suppressed the pain and slowly and calmly swallowed the remaining Qian Chong Xue.

It felt like something was running rampant inside my chest.

Ye Chutang's lips looked slightly pale.

She held onto the corner of the table and said to Xiao Wu with a normal look, "Xiao Wu, go and close the door."

Xiaowu thought that the cold wind made her cold again, so he nodded quickly and turned to close the door.

However, after running two steps, she saw a black cloak placed on a chair beside her.

——Isn’t that the prince’s? He left in such a hurry that he forgot to take it with him!
She turned around and looked at her sister.

It seems that my sister didn’t notice it just now?
Forget it, the prince has been gone for a while. It may be too late to catch up with him now. Besides, he still has things to do. I'll tell my sister later and we can return it another day.

Xiaowu didn't think any more and continued to run and close the door.

squeak-

The moment he closed his mouth, Ye Chutang turned his back to the door, and a rusty and bloody smell suddenly surged between his lips and teeth.

She clasped the corners of the table tightly.

A hint of crimson slowly flowed out from the corner of her lips.
