For three whole days, Lu Xinyi was trapped in this room and was not allowed to go out. Every night, the man would come to deliver food.
But what he gave was still not ordinary food, but his fingertips.
His blood seems to have magical power. People who drink his blood can be cured of any illness, let alone hunger.
Lu Xinyi was a little embarrassed at first, but as time went by, he kept trying to persuade him: "You are not well yet. When you are well, I will beg him to let you out."
"When I get out, I will compensate you twice as much, and I will make you my big boss!" Lu Xinyi said.
The person outside the door burst out laughing.
"Zijing, do you want to stay in this mansion and be a servant looking after horses all your life?" she asked.
Under the distant moonlight, she noticed that the corners of his robe were made of brocade and green silk, embroidered with golden python patterns - when could Zijing be able to afford such fine clothes?
Although she couldn't see his expression, she could feel that there must be a gentle smile on his face at this time.
"I don't know, maybe it won't be long before I leave too. What about you? Xin Yi."
Lu Xinyi blinked and nestled meekly in the corner of the door:
"I originally thought that when I saved enough money, I would go find my family. But sometimes I think about it, even if I save enough money , What can you do if you go? It may not be of any help to them, but it will be a drag on them.”
“So, you have been working very hard to make money, save money, and hope. I have enough wealth to help them, right?"
"Yeah." She nodded, "But I'm so stupid. You're right. I'm kind and stupid. I'm really stupid. It’s useless.”
There was silence on the other side of the door, but somehow, she clearly felt that a heart was very close to her, pressing against the door. She pressed against the door, That heart warmed her.
After a moment of silence, the man at the door whispered softly:
"You are very smart and very useful."
But this sentence was hazy, as if it appeared in a dream, and Not really said.
The wind was chilly in the middle of the night. Although there was no rain, a strong wind came and made the leaves rustle.
A big tiger pounced on Lu Xinyi. She suddenly woke up from her dream and broke out in a cold sweat. When she opened her eyes, the door and window clanked.
Is he already gone?
Lu Xinyi hugged her arms tightly and huddled up, facing the wind and rain, which was like the sky collapsing and the earth collapsing. The leaves were rustling, and countless rocks and sand were rolled up... But such a wild sky, But she could only hear the slightest human voice from a very far away place while holding her breath, and she could only live here. Suddenly, it felt as if I had been abandoned by the world.
There is no need to pretend to be strong at this moment. She hugged her knees and trembled into a ball. She suddenly felt so wronged, but who was she crying for at this time?
In order not to look so pitiful, or perhaps because he wanted to talk to comfort his loneliness, Lu Xinyi sighed softly and said:
"Tu Shansong, where are you? I'm fine I miss you. If you die, what will I do here alone?”
"Song, you would always accompany me in weather like this before, but where are you now?"
"I miss you so much..."
After saying this, a tear dropped. It fell unconsciously from her eyes, and she no longer spoke, but cried out her request to heaven bit by bit in her mind. I have never been a good disciple who can complete tasks. Why should I be given such a difficult task?
She huddled up and sobbed quietly behind the door.
The person outside the door seemed to have already felt this. He turned around, stretched out his palm, and gently rubbed the door, as if it was the face of the woman inside, as if he could brush away her tears.
He secretly said in his heart: I will help you find Tu Shansong.
The next day, I don’t know when the wind and rain stopped, the sun shone in, and the door was opened with a clang. Lu Xinyi, who was leaning on the door, suddenly lost his seat and almost slipped from the door to the outside. go.
Ling lowered his head and looked at her with a sullen face.
"Do you know where you went wrong?" he asked coldly.
Lu Xinyi sat up and rubbed her head: "Yes."
She knelt down and saluted respectfully: "That day on the street, I was lucky enough to have an encounter with the Crown Prince. I should not forget this. "
After hearing this, Ling glanced at her proudly. Seeing her aggrieved but well-behaved look, he couldn't help but feel happy. He helped her up and was about to say something. After saying something, he realized that there were others around him, so he turned away those servants with a cold face, then pulled her and said:
"This is right, I noticed you as soon as I saw you that day. You are a beautiful little snake. I will never forget you at first sight. How can you forget me?"
As he said that, he wanted to take her into his arms, but she dodged him. open.
Ling frowned and took back his hand.
“You want to keep those horses, right?”
Lu Xinyi raised his head: “Your Highness, I don’t know where I offended you, but if I am really offended , I also hope that the prince can be magnanimous. Maer is the prince. Your Majesty has no right to interfere with what you do with your personal belongings, but you imprisoning me indiscriminately and humiliating me like this is probably not the style of everyone, right?"
After hearing this, Ling raised his eyebrows and then looked at me. Xin Yi motioned for her to continue.
“I came back this time because I thought the prince was a sensible person. After all, you helped me when I had nothing. The success of Huahua Theater has also brought the family a little glory. Therefore, I come here because I am eager to cooperate with the Crown Prince again. If you are not willing to cooperate, then I can pay the ransom and leave the Duke's Mansion."
After hearing these words, Ling nodded and said with a smile: "Cooperate with you? You think highly of yourself, but what can I gain? All you have, this body, is a little bit tempting to me..."
say He stretched out his hand to hook her elbow. Lu Xinyi took two steps back: "Your Majesty, please respect yourself!"
"Come here!" Ling stopped pretending and called out to the door, and then, Two or three servants rushed in.
"Ling, I told you before, this is a great little snake." A charming voice came from behind the door. Lu Xinyi raised his eyes and saw Qin'er walking through the door in a flowery way. Then he appeared, and before she could react, she was already tied up by several big men. Qin'er walked up to her and said with a smile:
"You are lucky. His Royal Highness was poisoned by snake venom a few years ago. Only the bile of the snake god can detoxify it. If I had known you were a snake demon, I didn’t expect you to be such a good snake demon!”
"What do you mean?" Lu Xinyi was horrified. (End of this chapter)
