Chapter 37 Princess × Fake Prince (19)
Xihe suddenly couldn't explain anymore.
Because it was true that Liu Qinghuan suddenly had a stomachache and had to accompany her there. At that time, Liu Qinghuan chose a Gongfang that was relatively close to here and just waited outside. However, the exits of Gongfang were in all directions. During this period, Liu Qinghuan There is indeed a strong suspicion.
"Sister Liu, you..." Xi He cast a suspicious look at her. If the murderer was really Liu Qinghuan, it would be terrible for her. She actually used him as a murder knife.
"Seventh Princess, you don't have any evidence. You doubt me out of thin air. It's just because I don't have any support in this palace and you can manipulate me at will."
Liu Nanzhi is neither humble nor arrogant. Unfortunately, her plan will fail.
Ye Nanzhi unfolded the sachet soaked in water in his hand, "I pulled this sachet from the murderer's waist. I think Miss Liu should be familiar with it!"
"Sister Liu, it turns out it's really you." Xihe couldn't believe it.
She met Liu Qinghuan for the first time a few years ago, and Liu Qinghuan saved her life. At that time, Xihe asked her to stay in Chu State, but she was unwilling, saying that she had her own pursuits, but what about now? What was her purpose in murdering Ye Nanzhi?
She was very familiar with that sachet, because Liu Qinghuan said that it was the only relic left to her by her parents.
The moment Liu Qinghuan Ye Nanzhi took out the sachet, the change in her face said everything.
"Come here, put her in jail." Song Huaizhi said coldly. His eyes stayed on her for so long for the first time, but they were full of hatred.
Song Huaizhi carried Ye Nanzhi back to the East Palace.
It was a wet and cold night, and Ye Nanzhi's body was weak. Song Huaizhi changed her into clean clothes and fed her ginger soup. Although she was very busy, she was in an orderly manner.
"Huaizhi, I'm fine." Ye Nanzhi comforted him.
"What kind of situation does it take to be considered a problem, Zhizhi." His eyes were red and swollen, and the corners of his mouth were trembling slightly as he asked her.
The tears swirling in his eyes fell easily.
"When you were seven years old, you were almost kidnapped and trafficked by Yapo because of me taking you out of the palace. When you were in Ling Kingdom, you were stabbed because of me. Now..."
Song Huai burst into tears, he couldn't be so lucky again and again.
"I'm sorry, Zhizhi, I was too useless and couldn't protect you."
Song Huaizhi had always been emotionally restrained, but he became at a loss when it came to things about her.
"It's not your fault." Ye Nanzhi didn't want him to deny himself.
When his mother-in-law passed away, he was the one who endured everything. Song Huai had always protected her very well since she was a child, even a little too much.
"Zhizhi, I promise I won't let you get hurt again from now on."
Ye Nanzhi didn't know how to comfort Song Huaizhi. Fortunately, she didn't have a fever this time.
"Brother Prince, I was not allowed to come to see you a few days ago." Ye Nanzhi Xihe couldn't help complaining when he saw him.
Ye Nanzhi didn't speak at all. Not to mention Xihe, even Caiyun was isolated.
"How are you doing?"
"What!" Xihe pretended to be dumbfounded.
Ye Nanzhi had no choice but to point it out directly, "Of course it's about Shen Zhixian."
Talking about him, Xihe suddenly felt awkward.
"It's the same as before!" she said.
Ye Nanzhi joked: "It turns out that our Princess Xihe is also afraid when we meet someone we like."
"Who is scared?" Xihe jumped up instantly, "Am I not ready yet? Besides, how can a girl confess her love to me alone?"
Wouldn't it be very embarrassing if it failed?
"Then let me help you!"
Xihe's eyes suddenly brightened a lot, "How can I help?"
Seeing her anxious look, Ye Nanzhi said deliberately, "You will know when the time comes."
-
In the dank dungeon, Liu Qinghuan didn't know how many days he had been imprisoned.
When the iron door opened, she even thought she was in a daze.
Song Huaizhi walked in like a demon, looking down at her from above.
"His Royal Highness."
She tried to get Song Huaizhi to pity her, but the reality was that she was severely thrown away by Song Huaizhi.
"What is your intention to kill Zhi Zhi?"
His voice was like a cold pool three feet below, so cold it made people shiver.
But Liu Qinghuan laughed out loud, for what else?
"For what? Of course it's for you. I worked so hard to get to you. How can I allow someone else to exist around you?"
"Why, she can get your love without doing anything, but I work so hard but can only watch you protect her in your arms. I am not willing to accept it."
I still remember that when she was ten years old, she was very hungry and stood on the roadside begging. The passers-by subconsciously ignored her. Only Song Huaizhi silently bought a cake and stuffed it into her arms. From then on, she had put Song Huaizhi aside. Entered the heart.
"Go and study medicine! Studying medicine can save your own life and the lives of others."
This was what Song Huaizhi told her at that time. She always kept it in mind, and she really embarked on the path of studying medicine.
Later, when she learned that Song Huaizhi was imprisoned by Emperor Ling, she couldn't help but worry about him, but she never thought that it was Song Huaizhi who ordered her to be imprisoned.
Song Huaizhi couldn't help feeling ridiculous after hearing this.
"What if I say Zhizhi is your savior?"
When Liu Qinghuan was ten years old, it was also the year when Ye Nanzhi was almost kidnapped. Song Huaizhi still remembers it clearly.
At that time, not long after he was canonized as the prince, all the princes tacitly agreed not to play with him anymore. He was only eleven years old at that time, and he was at the age of playfulness.
What awaited him every day when he opened his eyes was endless homework. It was very cold in winter, and his hands were frozen, but he still did not dare to slack off in his homework.
"Brother, this is for you."
Ye Nanzhi stuffed the hot roasted sweet potato into his hand, and the hand holding the pen finally felt warm.
"Why can other brothers go out to play, but my brother can't." Ye Nanzhi opened his eyes wide and was wrapped up like cotton, very unconvinced.
Song Huaizhi was very aggrieved when he heard this. The only person who treated him best in the world was Zhi Zhi.
"Brother, stop writing. If Master blames me, just say that I hid all your homework."
Ye Nanzhi tried his best to give him advice.
Song Huaizhi was very hesitant and looked at the snowy scene outside. Today was the Lantern Festival and he wanted to go out to play.
"Don't be afraid, brother, go out and play! I'll help you guard it." Ye Nanzhi said thoughtfully.
Song Huaizhi shook his head, "Zhizhi, can we go out of the palace to play together?"
He had never seen the world outside the palace, and he was always envious every time he heard other princes talk about it.
"Okay! I will protect my brother."
Ye Nanzhi was only as high as his waist and had to look up at him, but she gave him endless courage.
The two of them carried everyone out of the palace, but no one took any money.
The Lantern Festival was very lively, and the various snacks made them drool.
"Brother, are you hungry?"
When he asked this question, Song Huaizhi had already been staring at the stall selling roast duck for a long time, and at the same time, Mrs. Ya was also watching them secretly.
"Hungry." Song Huaizhi was very sincere, and then his stomach made a growling sound.
"Hey, these two poor children must be starving! Grandma will treat you to food."
A kind-hearted old woman suddenly came over.
"No, thank you."
Ye Nanzhi pulled Song Huai back vigilantly.
But Song Huaizhi was really hungry, and his grandma didn't look bad at all, and was very kind.
He took the initiative and said, "Grandma, thank you. You are such a good person. My sister and I will repay you."
Ye Nanzhi couldn't resist him, so she could only follow him and thank him softly.
After eating that roast duck, Song Huaizhi slept so soundly that he didn't even know when Ye Nanzhi was taken away. When he woke up from the old woman's "home" early in the morning, Ye Nanzhi and her grandmother had long since disappeared.
"Zhizhi." Song Huaizhi was flustered. He told himself that he wouldn't, that grandma was a good person.
At this time, the people sent by the palace to find them met him.
"Zhizhi, Zhizhi is gone." He was so panicked that he cried.
Later, they found Ye Nanzhi in a restaurant. She put on a thin shirt that was not sheltered from the wind, soaked her fingers in the cold water, and washed the dishes while shedding tears.
"Have mercy! Sir, it was Yapo who sold her to us. We don't know anything."
"Forgive me, my lord, they have designated a girl to be easy to control."
They shirk responsibility from each other, and Song Huaizhi realizes how big his heart is. He almost lost his most beloved sister for a bite of roast duck.
I also completely understood what the book said about the sinister nature of people’s hearts.
Ye Nanzhi had been curled up in his arms on the way back to the palace, and suddenly she pulled Song Huaizhi's sleeve.
A girl in ragged clothes was kneeling in the snow, her head lowered and she hadn't eaten for who knows how long.
"Brother, she is so pitiful."
Ye Nanzhi took out the cake in his arms and said, "Give this to her!"
Hearing this, Song Huaizhi put her down, walked to the girl, and handed her the cake that Ye Nanzhi had protected warmly. The girl shrank fiercely in his sight. He thought of Zhizhi's red and swollen hands, and said compassionately: "Go and study medicine! Studying medicine can save your own life and the lives of others."
