Chapter 408
Li Yunqing's eyes fell on the ancient bamboo slips, her eyes were fixed immediately, and her plain hands hidden under her water sleeves tightened slightly.

Murong Lingye, who noticed Li Yunqing's arrival, raised his head slowly, his warm and probing eyes fell on Li Yunqing's face, and a weird smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

The eyes of the two met, Li Yunqing paused for a second, then slightly bowed his knees to salute, and said softly: "Slave... see His Highness King Ling."

It was the first time she had grown up to call herself a slave, and she was really not used to it.

Murong Lingye's eyes were fixed on Li Yunqing's knee, and his fingers moved slightly, "Get up."

Li Yunqing calmed down slightly, stood still with a calm expression, without saying a word, waiting for the King Ling to express his intentions.

Murong Lingye saw that her expression was calm and calm, so he didn't say much, lowered his eyes, and continued to look at his bamboo slips.

The cabin was shaking slightly, and the candles flickered. After standing for a long time, Li Yunqing gradually felt dizzy and nauseated. She couldn't help frowning and gritted her teeth slightly.

I don't know where this King Ling made a mistake, calling her an "ugly girl" over here, but she just stood here and didn't speak.

Didn't he find out...

On his bamboo slips, it says——

"The poison of cold water."

Before Li Yunqing finished reading, Murong Lingye's deep voice sounded in his ears.

She was slightly startled in her heart, but her small face was still calm, and she glanced at Murong Lingye in bewilderment.

Meaning, she didn't understand what he was talking about.

Murong Lingye had a panoramic view of her confusion, but smiled lowly: "The poison of water cold comes from the secret technique of the Mo family, the water cold array. People who suffer from this poison are covered with icicles, and they freeze to death. I have never heard of anyone Can survive...except you."

In an instant, Murong Lingye's gaze, which was originally gentle, became a bit sharp, as if he was oppressing Li Yunqing to tell the truth.

Naturally, Li Yunqing would not be frightened by him, but now that her life is in his hands, she has to be afraid.

"Slaves... don't know what His Highness is talking about."

You should play dumb at this time.

As we all know, now the Mohist family has withered and there are only three of them.

And the Mo family is located in the outskirts of the Great Qin Emperor's capital, and being able to suffer from the poison of water cold in her body already shows that her status is extraordinary, let alone the fact that the Mo family is in the Great Qin...

How can she admit it?
If she admits it, she will not be able to reach Chu State smoothly, and maybe even lose her life.

Murong Lingye chuckled, with a bit of coldness in his voice: "Although my medical skills are not at the peak, I can still see your symptoms clearly."

After finishing speaking, he quickly stretched out his hand, clamped Li Yunqing's wrist, and rested his fingers on her pulse, as if he was cutting her pulse!
Li Yunqing was startled in her heart, her first reaction was to resist, wanting to withdraw her hand.

But Murong Lingye obviously knew martial arts, and he was a man, he pulled her hand hard, how could she pull it back, he couldn't help frowning deeply, and a icy cold flashed across his eyes.

How to do?
If he really cut it out, it would be the definite evidence of the water-cold poison in her body.

Then how can she get away?

While feeling his pulse, Murong Lingye raised his eyes and fixedly looked into her eyes.

The flickering icy cold happened to be caught by him, and he couldn't help but confirm the guess in his heart.

From the first time he saw this woman on the deck, he felt that she was different.It is not the appearance, but the charm.

How could it be possible for an ordinary maid to have a scholarly charm like hers?

What's more, she has symptoms of water-cold poison in her body.

It's only early autumn, and the weather is still relatively hot. Even if the sea is windy, she won't be shivering like she is.Of course, this does not rule out the reason for her weak body.

More importantly, she felt cold all over her body, like a huge human-shaped ice cube.

He didn't know much about water-cold poison, so he came back and checked the books. Unexpectedly, he really guessed it right...

Murong Lingye narrowed his eyes, threw away Li Yunqing's wrist, and said in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

Li Yunqing's heart flustered for a while, and various reasons to fool people kept flashing through her mind.

But I heard Murong Lingye continue: "You saluted just now, you can be unfamiliar, I'm afraid you are not a person of low status? I guess, your face is also changed, right?"

Hearing what Murong Lingye said, Li Yunqing groaned in her heart.

She shouldn't have, she shouldn't have been caught by others by pretending to be a maid.

She has grown so big, and the number of salutes can be counted on the fingers, so of course she is unfamiliar...

What on earth would she have to say so that Murong Lingye would not throw her into the sea to feed the fish?

"Huh?" Murong Lingye frowned impatiently when he didn't get an answer for a long time.

If it was before, he would have asked the guards to pull her out and lock her up, but it's different now.

He was very curious about what kind of woman would possess the secret art of the Mo family.She is a woman with no power to restrain a chicken, so what is the reason for the Mo family to use secret techniques.

What's more... The status of this woman is definitely not low.

He had a hunch that this woman's purpose might have a lot to do with it.

Li Yunqing hesitated for a moment, and then said softly: "I... I am the daughter of a family of merchants and merchants in the Qin State... This time the two countries are fighting, and my parents feel that the Chu State is safer, so they bribed someone to let me pretend to be a servant girl to go to the Chu State Avoid disaster..."

Saying that, Li Yunqing's small face revealed a little hesitation and worry.

How could Murong Lingye believe her statement, smiled lightly, and said: "Then you are a mere merchant's daughter, why did you make Mo use secret techniques to deal with you?"

"I... I'm a boudoir girl, I don't know what is the secret technique of the Mohist family..." Li Yunqing's face was full of confusion, and she softly argued, "I only know who my father offended when I was young, and that person was wronged by accident. I..."

Murong Lingye looked at her steadfastly, tapping his fingers on the table, one after the other. It was obvious that he would not believe her statement.

However, he believed it a little bit.

After all, she is nothing more than a woman with no strength to restrain a chicken, what kind of waves can she make?

wrong.

Murong Lingye narrowed his warm eyes, a name suddenly popped up in his heart, and he blurted out: "Li Yunqing."

Suddenly, a thunderbolt exploded above Li Yunqing's head.

Li Yunqing's clear eyes trembled, and a huge shock appeared on her face!

How on earth did he know? !

But the shock was only for a moment. She suddenly saw that when Murong Lingye said the word Li Yunqing, he didn't look at her, but seemed to be thinking about something.

In fact, Murong Lingye really just thought about the woman in Qin State who was rumored to be able to turn clouds and rain, but also weak and weak. He shouldn't underestimate the woman in front of him.

There must be a huge secret hidden in this woman.

Murong Lingye suddenly felt very interested, and wanted to know what kind of woman she was.

"Your Highness, are you talking about Li Yunqing, the emperor of our country?" Li Yunqing raised her eyebrows slightly, and said with a light smile, "I have loved poetry and books since I was a child, and my body is weak. The elders in my family say that I am quite like that adult. But I I feel that everyone in the world is unique, and no one is like anyone.”

Since Murong Lingye thought of her, she couldn't sit still.

"Your statement is interesting." Murong Lingye frowned slightly, and reached out to look for something in the cabinet next to him. After a while, he took out a small white bottle and placed it in front of Li Yunqing.

Li Yunqing stared slightly: "Your Highness... what does this mean?"

"I thought you knew." Murong Lingye said calmly, "This is something that washes away the disguise on your face. Let me see what you look like. I will believe what you say. If you wish, I will take you to Chu State."

Hearing this, Li Yunqing's heart sank.

It's okay for Murong Lingye to see her true face, but... what if Murong Lingye has seen her portrait and knows what "Emperor Master Li Yunqing" looks like?
Then wouldn't she have failed...

Seeing Li Yunqing's hesitation, Murong Lingye raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why, can't you even see your true face?"

Li Yunqing smiled in embarrassment: "The little girl's real face is ugly, I'm afraid it will stain His Highness's eyes..."

"It doesn't matter, no matter how ugly you are, it won't be uglier than you are now." Murong Lingye was determined to see Li Yunqing's true face.

"This..." Li Yunqing showed anxiety and embarrassment on her small face, she put her hands together uneasy, and whispered, "I'm not married yet, my parents said that I can't just show it to men..."

Murong Lingye doesn't seem to be an unreasonable person who is unreasonable and uneasy about etiquette, so if she said so, he probably won't bother her anymore.

As expected, Murong Lingye was slightly taken aback when he heard the words.

Xindao is indeed that he is being rude, and the girl who has not left the court really cannot be seen by others casually.

All she is easy to tolerate, right?
wrong.

He can't take this woman there.

There must be a secret in this woman, and it's a huge secret.

"Then don't read it." Murong Lingye waved his hand casually, put away the small bottle on the table, and continued to ask casually, "Then you, a little girl, go to the country of Chu where you are not familiar. , how do you deal with yourself? Doesn’t your family stay with you? "

Unaccompanied, this is the most suspicious.

But he guessed that the other two maidservants on the deck who looked worried at her were probably her servants or sisters?

But the three little girls went to Chu State alone, even if the two countries were at war, it would be dangerous in Qin State, shouldn't they be so hasty?

"Actually, there are two other women on board who accompanied me to the state of Chu. As for the state of Chu..." Li Yunqing lowered her eyes slightly. I have many thoughts.

When she arrived in Chu State, how would she go to the palace?
The palace is heavily guarded, and not everyone can get in.Even if they got in, if they wanted to get close to the emperor and empress, it would be a dream.

Unless, she can have a special identity.

Why don't you just follow the plan and take a ride with His Highness King Ling...
