The young girl stood there and bit her teeth. There was gratitude in her starry eyes. After standing there for a while, she bowed to Chu Mo's room and turned to leave. The young girl's figure quickly disappeared into the vast night.
Not long after she left, some of the guards who were guarding the periphery woke up in their respective posts. Their eyes were filled with confusion. They felt that they were very sleepy and fell asleep unknowingly.
These guards looked at the restricted area carefully. When they saw that there was no movement, they all heaved a sigh of relief and decided to bury this strange matter in their hearts. Otherwise, if Kenn were to get angry, they would not be able to bear the consequences.
The light in the princess's room was still on.
Yuan Zidai paced back and forth in the room with an anxious look on her face.
"That little bastard is said to be very powerful. Even the two masters of the prince's mansion are no match for him. I don't know if that little girl can successfully settle this matter …" Yuan Zidai's eyes shone with a cold light. "Chu Mo, first you crippled my son, and now you want to cut off my escape route. Although we have never met, we are irreconcilable enemies! So, don't blame me for being ruthless! "
Tap, tap, tap.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Yuan Zidai's body trembled slightly. Then, she strode over and opened the door with her own hands.
"Rouge, how did it go?" Yuan Zidai's eyes were filled with hope. She stared at the beautiful young girl who came in and asked, "Did you succeed?"
The young girl looked ashamed. "Madam … I'm sorry, I … I didn't succeed."
"What?" Yuan Zidai's voice suddenly became sharp. She looked at the beautiful young girl in front of her coldly and said, "Are you joking?"
"That young man … is too vigilant." The beautiful young girl said softly, "I was discovered before I could get close to him!"
"Do you know how much risk I'm taking to cooperate with you? Hmm? " Yuan Zidai stared at the young girl angrily. "Do you know how difficult it was for me to send someone to knock out the periphery guards? Do you know the value of the knockout powder? It's not even enough to sell you! "
"Also, where's your knockout powder? Didn't I give you the knockout powder? Why didn't you use it? That knockout powder can even knock out a Level Five expert of the Thousand Killer Stage … Why didn't you use it? "
When the young girl heard this, there was a flash of shock in her eyes. Then, she looked at Yuan Zidai with grievance and slowly knelt down. "Madam, Rouge didn't!
Upon hearing this, the young lady was shocked. Then, she looked at Yuan Zidai with an aggrieved expression and knelt down slowly. "Mistress, I don't have any rouge! Rouge, Madam. even if I have to die! Rouge knows that without Madam, Rouge's family would have died that year. "
"At least you still have some conscience." Yuan Zidai looked at Rouge Coldly. "Then why did you fail?"
Rouge raised her head. The wound on her neck was clearly visible. She said with grievance, "That person was too powerful. I couldn't even get close to him. I wasn't his match. Even if … even if I seduced him … it was useless! But, but in the end, he said … said … "
"What did he say?" Yuan Zidai's voice had become extremely cold.
"He said … Madam, you should know your place. He will plead with Kenn. He won't let you suffer … Madam."
Slap!
Yuan Zidai walked forward, raised her hand, and slapped the young girl hard on the face.
A bright red palm print instantly appeared on the young girl's jade-like face.
Yuan Zidai screamed, "You idiot! Did you betray me? "
"No … No, Madam, Rouge didn't betray you. He guessed it himself!" The young girl said with tears in her eyes.
Yuan Zidai gritted her teeth. Her expression was ferocious. "You stupid thing. That little bastard crippled my son. I have a deep grudge against him. Will he speak for me? Do I need him to plead for me? "
"Rouge thinks … he didn't lie. Besides … Young Master Jie, he …"
Slap!
Before the young girl could finish speaking, she received another slap on her other cheek. Yuan Zidai's furious scream rang in her ears. "What did you say? You bitch. What did my son do? You dare to say that my son isn't good? I'll beat you to death, you useless thing! "
Slap slap slap!
Yuan Zidai slapped the young girl seven to eight times in one go. Just as she was about to continue slapping her, her wrist was suddenly grabbed. It was Rouge. Rouge's cheeks were red and swollen. Her eyes were filled with tears as she looked at Yuan Zidai. "Is that enough?"
"You dare … resist me?" Yuan Zidai's eyes shone with an incomparably cold light. She looked at Rouge and sneered. "I knew it … a little bitch like you is completely unreliable! Luckily … I had a backup plan back then. "
Rouge looked at Yuan Zidai in shock. She gradually let go of Yuan Zidai's wrist.
Yuan Zidai didn't continue to hit her. Coldly, she looked at Rouge. There wasn't a trace of emotion in her eyes. "I've put a slow-acting poison in your body. I spent a lot of money to get this prescription from a sect's pharmacist. Once you're poisoned, you can forget about leaving me for the rest of your life! Because if you leave me for more than five days, the poison will take effect! Rouge … your life is mine! If I want you to live, you will live. If I want you to die, you will die! Do you … understand? "
The young girl who was kneeling there seemed to be stunned. She looked at Yuan Zidai in shock. Her eyes were filled with puzzlement. She recalled the last words that Chu Mo said to her. "If one day, you feel that you're not quite right. For example … there's something wrong with your body. You can go to the Fan Mansion to look for me. I can help you."
The young girl didn't understand what those words meant at that time. But now, she finally understood!
That Chu Mo, since he could refine medicine for Kenn and cure the illness that everyone else couldn't … Of course, he also had the ability to see the problem in her body!
So that was it!
So that was it!
Unexpectedly … the Mistress whom I trusted the most and whom I could sacrifice my life for at any time, actually didn't trust me and actually put poison in my body!
"Humph, what kind of expression is that? Little girl, you want to fight with me … You're still too inexperienced! Now, I don't care what method you use. Immediately go and kill Chu Mo. This matter will be settled. Or else … "Yuan Zidai looked at the young girl coldly.
The young girl suddenly continued the conversation softly, "Or else you'll kill me?" Saying that, the young girl lowered her eyelids and said softly, "Mistress, that year, Rouge's entire family met with a disaster. They were harmed by scoundrels. Thanks to Mistress's help, Rouge's family was able to escape from danger. So from then on, Rouge decided that in this lifetime … I'm Mistress's woman! "
Yuan Zidai snorted.
Then, Rouge continued, "Later on, my family fell ill one after another. Mistress sent money and medicine, but they didn't have the fortune and their lives were too short. One by one, they died, and Mistress paid for their funeral … Rouge remembered all these things in her heart and vowed to repay Mistress."
Coldly, Yuan Zidai looked at Rouge. "Is this how you repay me? You didn't succeed, and you betrayed me? You're so ungrateful! "
Ignoring Yuan Zidai, Rouge continued to speak softly, "Today, Rouge found out that Mistress thought Rouge's family was a hindrance, so she poisoned them. Otherwise, as long as they were alive, Rouge would have worries, and she wouldn't be able to work for Mistress wholeheartedly. So … It's better for them to die. In this way, Rouge's life will completely belong to Mistress. "
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Yuan Zidai's expression changed slightly, and she reprimanded loudly, "I drugged you because … because I was afraid that you would harm me one day! Why would I poison your family? "
"Hehe, now that things have come to this, do you think Rouge will believe such an explanation, Mistress?" The young girl knelt there, her cheeks red and swollen, and she kowtowed to Yuan Zidai three times. "Mistress, this is the last time Rouge will call you this. Thank you, I'm sorry, I hate you!"
With that, Rouge stood up and looked deeply at Yuan Zidai. "I hope that you'll get better and better in the future!"
"You … you don't want to live anymore?" Panic finally appeared in Yuan Zidai's eyes. "Do you know that if you leave me for five days … your whole body will fester and you'll die!"
"Since my heart is dead, why should I cherish my body?" Rouge glanced at Yuan Zidai, turned around resolutely, walked out the door, and disappeared into the fading night.
Yuan Zidai slumped weakly on the chair, her eyes filled with hatred, and she muttered, "B * tch … B * tch! Scram! Scram! Don't be so stubborn, when you're about to die … you'll definitely come back and beg me! "
…
The next morning, Chu Mo walked out in high spirits, and the courtyard was clean. What happened last night was like a dream, and not a trace was left behind.
Then, a waiter brought breakfast, and when he was about to leave, he was stopped by Chu Mo. "Wait."
"Master Childe Chu, what can I do for you?" This waiter was dressed in ordinary clothes, and looked like an ordinary servant, but the people who could appear here were actually Xia Jing's confidants.
"There should be … guards around here, right?" Chu Mo pointed into the distance, and then asked, "Why did no one answer me last night after I called for so long?"
"Ah? It shouldn't be! " This servant's eyes flashed with doubt, and then he said seriously, "I'll report this matter to Kenn immediately, and I'll definitely give Master Childe Chu an explanation!"
Chu Mo took a deep look at this servant, and thought to himself, "As expected, he's one of Xia Jing's people. Otherwise, how could a low-level servant have the right to meet Kenn directly?"
"Forget it, just ask Kenn to come here, and tell him … the medicine is already partly healed," Chu Mo said calmly.
"Ah? I know! Please ask Childe Chu to have his meal first, and wait for a moment! I'll report to Kenn now! "This servant left quickly. No matter how important the matter was, it couldn't be compared to this.
Not long after, Xia Jing hurried over alone, and his eyes were still full of excitement. When he saw Chu Mo, he immediately showed concern. "This King just heard from the servant that last night …?"
Chu Mo said, "Come in and talk."
In the room, Chu Mo looked at Xia Jing, and first handed him an elixir. This elixir was blue in color, and it was only the size of a bean. "Kenn, take this elixir first, and then we'll talk about other things."
As Chu Mo spoke, he handed Xia Jing a cup of warm water.
"Take it now?" Xia Jing's excited eyes flashed with a hint of hesitation.
Chu Mo said with a smile, "What's wrong? Is Kenn worried that this elixir is poisonous? "
"Ah, how can that be? This King is afraid … cough cough … "Xia Jing's old face turned red.
Chu Mo laughed and said, "Kenn is overthinking … how can it be so fast?"
Xia Jing scratched his head and smiled. "I'm just … a little impatient." Anyway, he had shown his most embarrassing side in front of this young man before, so it wouldn't make a difference this time. He took the elixir and swallowed it with warm water without hesitation, and then sat there.
After about the time it took for a joss stick to burn, Xia Jing's face first showed a trace of surprise, and then … he became excited. He jumped up and paced around the room, and his eyes suddenly widened. He looked at Chu Mo and said loudly, "This King … felt it!"
