The Hickey of the Demon Lord: The Substitute Princess

Chapter 289

At least he was the one tormented, not this kind woman.

"Now, there is only one last thing left." Nangong Zheng frowned slightly, and he could hear Situ Changle saying this in a vague voice.

As soon as the words were spoken, Situ Changle's body under his hands suddenly froze.

Nan Gongzheng couldn't believe Situ Changle's actions. In the depths of those black eyes, there had never been an expression of surprise, but now, there was a sting of pain.

The tip of the silver knife pierced the old man's chest, drawing a bloodstain on his heart. The blood flowed down the blade and dripped into the wine glass by Situ Changle's hand.

The room was silent, no one said a word, the faces of the palace maid and Fan'er suddenly turned pale, and the two imperial physicians were also frightened. Even Gongsun Yang's eyes widened. In an instant, all eyes fell on Situ Changle body.

Nangong Zheng stared at the cup of blood, his whole body stiffened until his chest hurt, and he realized that at that moment, he forgot to breathe.

"Let her drink it." Situ Changle handed the glass to Gongsun Yang.

Gongsun Yang was stunned, even though he had lived most of his life, he never thought about saving people in this way, "What?"

"Do as I say." Situ Changle coughed again and again, his chest was wet and blood-colored, and he quickly walked on the gray cloth.

Of course Gongsun Yang knew that Situ Changle could not be joking at all, so he immediately took it, opened Su Min's mouth, and poured it in. "Okay, I'll do it right away."

Nangong Zheng looked at Su Min's blood-stained lips, frowned slightly, and growled, "What are you doing?"

However, Situ Changle just glanced at him lightly, and then bossed around at another person. "This is a necessary step. Gongsun Yang, why don't you bandage my wound? You'll be happy to see me bleed to death, right?"

"It's best to die." Gongsun Yang ordered the imperial physician to guard Su Min carefully, and then he walked over dissatisfied, cut off the cloth on Situ Changle's body, and applied a handful of wound medicine on the wound.

"You hard-hearted thing!" Situ Chang laughed happily. The knife he just had was not serious at all, it was just a flesh wound that made him bleed, and the faces of these useless things turned pale.

For some reason, Nan Gongzheng endured it and did not continue to question Situ Changle who was joking like this.

Then, he watched Situ Changle helplessly, after hastily cleaned and bandaged the wound on his body, he walked up to Su Min step by step, and put away the densely packed silver needles all over her body one by one.

Busy and going on.

Everyone was extremely careful even when breathing, and their spirits were highly concentrated, for fear that if they were distracted for a while, they would do something wrong and make a big mistake.

Everything is over.

It was over, the faces of the two imperial physicians, Gongsun Yang, and Situ Changle, became extremely tired. It was clearly the end of autumn, but they were so busy that they were sweating.

Nangong Zheng was still standing in his original position, too quiet.

Situ Changle patted Gongsun Yang on the shoulder, and signaled with his eyes for him to leave with the others. He wanted to speak to Nangong Zheng alone.

He could see what kind of doubts were hidden in Nangong Zheng's dark eyes, and his smile was a bit bitter, "I don't know if it will be useful... If God is willing to let people go, then my blood will be released." It's not in vain..."

"You." Nangong Zheng's eyes were extremely sharp.

Situ Chang laughed happily, nodded, and continued slowly. "You guessed it."

"You too." Nan Gongzheng suddenly felt that he couldn't see clearly the lonely old man in front of him.

"Yes, although I've been trying to forget it, I can't change this fact." There was a very faint smile hidden in his eyes, and he sat at the table slowly, working for two hours before he could quietly drink a cup of hot tea to warm him up. Warm up your body and mind. "I am the second blood clan member who escaped from the killing of the royal family back then. There is another one, the girl who gave birth to Xiao Min. It is calculated that she was only a girl in her early ten years old at that time. It is too insignificant. Don't let them notice."

Nangong Zheng didn't move. This time, he was negligent and never suspected him.

Situ Changle took a sip of tea, and his eyes unconsciously fell on the unconscious woman, dating back more than ten years ago: "So, when I saw Xiao Min and felt that she was different from ordinary children, I I don’t know how happy I am. Although there is no blood relationship, she seems to be my own granddaughter, and seeing her mother died very early, I love her even more. Because in this world, there are only me and her. You are different. I am a pure blood, and she can barely be called half, but this also makes me feel that we are very close."

Nangong Zheng raised his eyebrows, and there was no ups and downs in his voice: "So, you have been warning her, right?"

He nodded, and when talking about this topic, Situ Changle's face became cold, and what he said was earth-shattering: "A lot of the effects of the blood of blood people are actually fabricated and exaggerated by the world. Of course, there are some uses, but it’s not so mysterious. What’s even more ridiculous is that even the ancestors of our blood race people don’t know how special we are. Our blood is the same as yours, it is the link that maintains our lives, But when our blood got on other people’s bodies, it’s not sure whether it’s a tonic or a poison. And you, because of your greed for life, you killed all our people, tortured them to death, and tortured them to death. When you become a medicine man, you are the devil, aren't you?"

"This is the real reason why you hate the royal family in your bones." Nan Gongzheng suddenly understood this time. What Situ Changle said was shocking and thought-provoking.

"Before I entered the coffin, I wouldn't like you people." Situ Changle stared at him, not hiding his inner thoughts. He seldom changed his stubbornness for others.

"The reason why you asked Su Min to drink your blood just now is for this." Nangong Zheng calmed down and stopped continuing the topic. He changed the subject and asked directly.

Situ Changle's eyes flashed, and his tone was indifferent. "Don't be too happy, as I said, our blood is not a elixir. But I heard about this folk remedy from my father's generation, and it is said that some people survived like this."

Nangong Zheng was silent, leaning on the edge of the table, and sat down quietly, his eyes were still fixed on Su Min.Her wound was on her head, but his wound was on her heart.

"Maybe there will be a miracle. We have no other choice but to wait." Situ Changle was extremely exhausted. He was already showing signs of aging. If it wasn't for her, he wouldn't have done such a laborious thing.

"Thank you." Nangong Zheng's eyes softened a little, he turned his face away and said.Although he didn't smile at all, and knew Nangong Zheng was worried and distressed, Situ Changle still joked.

"You can still say thank you, it's really frightening."

Nangong Zheng's eyes deepened. "Don't worry, you and Su Min's real identities will never be revealed while I'm alive."

"Although I still don't like you very much, it can be seen that you are really kind to Xiao Min. The three days starting from tonight are the most difficult time for her. If you get through it, it will be much easier. You Be with her well, and don't make her feel lonely." Situ Changle drank the tea in his hand in one gulp, slowly propped himself up, and said in a low voice.

Before leaving, he asked meaningfully. "I heard that you also lost your mother very early. The little girl never let people see how sad she was. She kept those emotions in her heart. It is said that she lost her mother before she was sensible. She lived in the past. What life was, I don't think she remembers it now, and it's a relief to her, but you should remember it all."

"Yes, I know." Nan Gongzheng nodded, a hint of darkness slipped across his handsome face.

"Don't let her down." Situ Changle turned his back, paused, and finished this sentence. "If she really survives, she will be with you forever."

Nangong Zheng watched Situ Changle go out. After this experience, he seemed to have aged a lot.

In the future, he should learn to live in harmony with those who love Su Min so much, because he loves Su Min, and so do they.

a day later.

The situation seems very pessimistic.

At noon, the maid brought a cup of light medicinal food. He brought it over and fed it into Su Min's mouth without using his hands. It took him less than half an hour for such a simple movement, and he couldn't bear her. Hungry, not to mention, her womb, and their child, their hope.

Just as he put down the empty bowl, he gently brushed aside the long hair that was hanging around her ear. Now the back of her head was wrapped with white gauze, and she could only turn sideways. He was afraid that her hands and feet on one side would become numb after sleeping for a long time. Sore, so every half an hour, he would gently pick her up and turn her over.

In the past three days, he seldom cared about state affairs, and the early court was just a formality, a cutscene. He made many decisions at the moment, and put aside the memorials for now.

Outside the door, Nan Gongtong heard the wind, hurried to the palace, walked to Su Min's bedroom, but just happened to meet Fan'er who was looking hurried, he stopped her with one hand, and asked in a low voice. "Fan'er, how are you doing?"

But she only had slightly red eyes, and shook her head, only then did Nan Gongtong notice that there was food in the lacquer plate in her hand, he frowned slightly, and only then heard Fan'er say.

"Just now the emperor fed the young lady the medicinal food, but he hasn't eaten yet, so I'll bring it over for him to eat."

Nangong Tong suddenly stopped, Fan'er bowed slightly towards him and continued walking, the maid outside opened the door for her, and she stepped across the threshold.

Tong's mood suddenly became very heavy. These days, he and Princess Huiping were not happy. No, to be exact, the two had already quarreled.
