C169

Just as today was the day that Ke Yuehua was meditating, Shi Jinchen had always been in Ke Yuehua's room accompanying her. No matter how fast the Ke Yuehua was, the Shi Jinchen would not leave.

When night fell on the second day, everything was still and quiet. Shi Jinchen and Ke Yuehua had long fallen asleep. Only a few guards patrolled around the inn.

Five figures quietly appeared on the roof of the inn. The official Qin Yu and his subordinates silently walked on the roof.

Qin Yu walked at the very front, turned around and gestured to the people behind them, signalling two people to stay behind on the rooftop, and the rest of the people to follow him down. Then the three of them landed lightly on the corridor. The inn was a ring-shaped building with an open patio in the middle.

Qin Yu walked to the door of Shi Jinchen's room. He first lit a incense stick and inserted it into the room. After half a minute, he gently opened the door and raised the poisoned dagger in his hand. He walked to Shi Jinchen's bed and discovered that there was no one on top of the bed.

Qin Yu rolled his eyes, looked behind the door, and carefully opened the wardrobe. When he opened the window, he found that there was no one there.

He turned around and went out, and indicated for his hands to go down to Ke Yuehua's room.

The moment Qin Yu and the rest stepped onto the rooftop, they had already been alerted. They looked at each other for a moment. Shi Jinchen carefully helped him up, and then, Princess carried him as she hid behind the door.

Listening to their every move, no one knew who they were talking to. When he heard them entering the room next door, Shi Jinchen thought about who sent experts to kill him, thinking about the people he offended, and felt that Shi Jinhan was the most likely person to do so.

Qin Yu quietly opened the door to the room, walked to the bedside, and followed by two subordinates.

When he realized that there was no one behind him, he gestured to the people behind him, "Search carefully, it's nearby. The bed is hot."

When one of them reached to the door, Shi Jinchen suddenly kicked him, and he flew out, falling to the ground. With a loud noise, he attracted the attention of the guards, and shouted: "Someone, there's an assassin!"

Qin Yu turned his head, raising his dagger, he slashed at Shi Jinchen.

Shi Jinchen carried on his body, as he counterattacked with Qin Yu.

Ke Yuehua recognized Qin Yu at this moment, and knew that Ke Zheng had sent them to kill Shi Jinchen.

However, because the movement of the Shi Jinchen on his back was hindered, he was unable to unleash it. After giving Qin Yu a chance, Qin Yu indicated for another person to attack Ke Yuehua.

That person sneaked a sneak attack on Ke Yuehua from behind. The Ke Yuehua turned around and used his left foot to kick him, dodging the attack. Just then, taking advantage of the Shi Jinchen being unprepared, Qin Yu raised the dagger and pierced towards the Ke Yuehua. The Ke Yuehua watched the movements of the Qin Yu, and did not expect that the man would kill him.

Shi Jinchen quickly turned around, faced the Ke Yuehua towards the door, avoided the Qin Yu, and went to completely expose his own in front of the Qin Yu. Unable to avoid in time, his left arm was sliced open.

The Shi Jinchen tried to stabilize itself, but the poison was too strong. Just as Qin Yu was about to slash him again, a large number of guards suddenly rushed over.

Qin Yu saw that the situation was bad, and led his subordinates to jump out the window.

When the guard rushed over, he saw Ke Yuehua carrying the unconscious Shi Jinchen and loudly shouted, "Shi Jinchen, wake up! Shi Jinchen, you can't die! "

The head guard immediately sent someone to get Imperial Physician Li to carry Shi Jinchen and place it on the bed. Ke Yuehua jumped to the side of the bed, held onto Shi Jinchen's hand and said: "Shi Jinchen, you must hold on." Tears flowed uncontrollably from the corners of his eyes.

Ke Yuehua did not notice at all that this was the first time she was crying since her father sold her to a brothel, because he was completely immersed in the injury caused by Shi Jinchen.

"Shi Jinchen, you said that you will always accompany me, that nothing must happen to you." Ke Yuehua said the whole time as he held onto the hand that held the Shi Jinchen.

It was only until Imperial Physician Li came over to treat Shi Jinchen that he stepped aside.

Imperial Physician Li took Shi Jinchen's hand, placed it on his pulse, and closed his eyes to think. Then, he looked at the wound on Shi Jinchen's arm. The flesh on the wound had already been pulled out. It was shocking to see that blood was still flowing from the wound. Furthermore, the wound was purple in color. It was obvious that it was poisoned.

"Doctor Li, how is your Shi Jinchen?" Ke Yuehua tightly gripped Imperial Physician Li's arm, the veins on the back of his hand bulged, showing his nervousness and anxiety.

Imperial Physician Li looked nervous, but he held his tongue.

Ke Yuehua shouted anxiously: "Quickly speak! How did he raise his Shi Jinchen? "

"Your highness, your highness was struck by a poison called 'Thousand Thread Knot'. It was created from the mashing of several hundred different types of poisonous plants. The juice of the medicinal plants was poured together to form this poison." Imperial Physician Li shook his head.

"Then hurry and find the antidote?" Ke Yuehua immediately told the butler to spend a large amount of money to get the medicine.

"Miss Xiao Sui, there is no cure for this poison, because we simply do not know which poison plants it is made from. Only the person who poisoned the medicine early could concoct the antidote. " Imperial Physician Li looked at Ke Yuehua in despair, because they did not know who the poisoner was.

Imperial Physician Li's words had awaken Ke Yuehua. It was Qin Yu!

Since the poison was from the Qin Yu, there must be an antidote for it.

"I know who administered the poison, I'll go ask them for the antidote." Ke Yuehua ran towards Shi Jinchen, held his hand and said, "You must wait for my return! I'll definitely come back and save you with the antidote. "

Then, she endured the pain and turned to your imperial physician. "If I'm not here, I'll leave everything to Imperial Physician Li. You have to take good care of him. I'll go quickly and return."

Imperial Physician Li still had to remind him, "Remember, you have to come back within ten days, or else the prince's life will be …"

Ke Yuehua nodded his head to show that he remembered.

Before they left, the leader of the guards asked if Ke Yuehua needed them to follow them.

Ke Yuehua thought for a moment and said: "There's no need, I alone am enough. You guys just stay here and properly protect the Duke." Then, he said to Jing Yi, whose eyes were filled with tears, "I'm not here, take good care of Shi Jinchen."

Jing Yi nodded his head, "Miss, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Your Highness."

Ke Yuehua hopped onto the horse, and waved the whip in his hand, "Giddy up!" With a loud sound, he spurred his horse forward and galloped away.

The voice of the Jing Yi came from behind them. "Young miss, be careful along the way!"

The butler in the Shi Jinchen room was praying with Imperial Physician Li, "Miss Xiao Sui, you must come back safely with the antidote. The prince's life is all on you."

"Buddha bless us, Amitabha!"

They had now placed all their hopes on Ke Yuehua.

Ke Yuehua hurried along the way, not daring to rest. When she was tired, she would rest by the tree for a while, then open her eyes and ride on her horse. When she was hungry, she would eat some steamed buns and drink some water when she was thirsty.

Change horses at every station, always at your fastest speed.

At this moment, his Ke Yuehua did not feel fatigued at all. All he wanted to do was to quickly retrieve the antidote and return to the Shi Jinchen. As long as he thought about how his Shi Jinchen would not return, his heart would involuntarily twitch. It was very uncomfortable.

Just like this, after riding on eight broken horses for three days, Ke Yuehua finally arrived at the broken sword cliff.
