It is said that Concubine Yu reported the rebellion of the prince's mother's family, so that Qi Chengyi was deposed, the family's home was ransacked, and she was thrown into the cold palace together with her biological mother.
Ten years ago, Qi Chengyi's biological mother died in secret. It was said that she was tortured to death by eunuchs, and some said that she was tricked by Concubine Yu. However, no one tried to find out the truth about the death of the people in the cold palace. Anyway, in these years, Qi Chengyi was the only one locked up in the cold palace. , it’s really miserable.
Just as Fu Yunqing was about to open the door and go in, Tianying hugged her arm tightly and lowered her voice: "Miss, why are you going in?"
"Getting interested, go in and tease him."
"Miss, you're talking nonsense! How can you tell if he's good-looking just by looking at his back?"
Fu Yunqing patted Tianying on the shoulder: "Stay here and I'll go meet him. The enemy of my enemy is my friend."
"Is he an enemy of Concubine Yu?"
"Concubine Yu killed his mother and family, and caused him to change from a prince with a bright future to an abandoned son in the cold palace. How can he not hate her?"
Fu Yunqing softly opened the iron door and walked towards the animal cage. The branches around her suddenly moved. She frowned and looked, but found that there was no one among the leaves.
She walked towards the animal cage step by step and walked directly opposite the man.
The cold palace is ruined and desolate, and the light is dim. Walking in here is like falling into a bottomless dry well, which is depressing and dull.
A ray of skylight diffused from the dark clouds and cast it diagonally.
And she happened to be standing in the only ray of sunshine in the cold palace.
Fu Yunqing looked at the young man.
The man's limbs were restrained by iron chains, and he was half-kneeling on the ground. His black hair hung down to cover his face. Blood slowly dripped from his chin and onto his lean and straight abdominal muscles.
His whole body was shaking, like a person on the verge of death. He raised his head tremblingly, and a pair of black and white handsome eyes suddenly crashed into Fu Yunqing's eyes.
She had never seen such a handsome man.
The tough black hair seems to hide the eyes like clear springs in winter. The bridge of the nose is straight, the thin lips are charming, and the jawline is thin and smooth.
Exquisite and handsome. Like a broken god who has fallen into the mortal world.
Fu Yunqing came to his senses and realized that he was almost dead.
The man gritted his teeth and trembled, trembling all over, and looked at her for help like a puppy...
He knelt and trudged forward, then suddenly fell to the ground. The pain in his neck made the veins swell.
Fu Yunqing had practiced medicine with his mother, and he could tell at a glance that he was poisoned by a strange poison. If he didn't take the antidote immediately, his life would be in danger.
She was silent for a moment. Between being nosy and being alone, she weighed the pros and cons and chose the former. Gritting her teeth and being cruel, she took out a red pill from her sleeve with great distress, rushed into the dirty animal cage, and picked it up. Man, open his jaw and force it in——
Biting the pill, the tip of his tongue was covered in blood.
"Well, you-"
The man's pale and handsome face showed sullenness. He was about to resist, but he found that this woman was extremely powerful and she was no match for him with her poisonous hair!
There was murderous intent in the man's eyes, and just when the sword in his sleeve was about to leave its sheath, the pain in his body was gradually relieved by this elixir...
After a moment, the color returned to the man's face and his body became much calmer.
"Thank you...girl for saving your life." The man hid his sword and his voice was cold and soft.
"No thanks, no thanks. What's your name? Are you poisoned?" Fu Yunqing pretended not to know his identity and asked with concern.
If you let Qi Chengyi know that you know him right away, it would be too purposeful and make him wary. It would be better to pretend not to know and get acquainted by accident, which would be more heart-to-heart.
"Qi, Cheng, Yi." He touched the remains of the elixir on his lips, licked them lightly with the tip of his tongue, and frowned for a moment.
"Brother Chengyi, today is the Queen's birthday, which brings blessings to the world. People who are pardoned can also attend the banquet. Do you want to go too?" The man didn't say much. Fu Yunqing didn't know what to say for a while, so she found a topic. .
"Don't go. How can someone with my status... be worthy?" Qi Chengyi lowered his eyes.
Like a puppy with low self-esteem, it lowers its head in hurt.
Fu Yunqing patted his shoulder gently: "Everyone is equal, why don't we deserve it?"
A trace of surprise flashed across Qi Chengyi's eyes.
An unpleasant bird chirping sounded outside Leng Palace, and Fu Yunqing knew that Tianying was urging her, and immediately said: "The palace banquet is about to begin, so I will go ahead and not stay any longer."
As soon as she walked out of the iron gate with hurried steps, Tianying said quickly: "The patrolling imperial guard is here. Did the girl find out from him any weaknesses about Concubine Yu and her son?"
"You haven't had time to make excuses yet." Fu Yunqing thought for a moment and shook his head, "Let's make contact first and then make excuses to see if we can use him."
The two of them were just walking away.
In the cold palace, the four chains fell off automatically.
Qi Chengyi walked out of the animal cage calmly, with the tip of his tongue slightly touching the roof of his mouth, evoking a sinister smile.
In the dense tree canopy, a man in black with a heavy sword on his shoulder jumped down and presented the small jade bottle in his hand: "When His Highness fell ill just now, I wanted to send Jindidan, but I didn't want that woman to interfere. Seeing that His Highness did not stop him, my subordinates did not dare to take action rashly."
Qi Chengyi pushed open the jade bottle, with an elusive and deep smile in his eyes. He clicked his tongue and curled his lips and said: "Her elixir can detoxify me quickly. It is much better than Jindidan." .”
The man in black was slightly startled: "Your poison has been exposed all over the world. Many imperial doctors are helpless, but her elixir has been cured. How about my subordinates arrest her and torture her about how to make the elixir?"
"Everyone is equal, which is a fresh idea..." Qi Chengyi finished speaking to himself, his eyes cold and expressionless, "Killing my stepmother, whipping Qi Yu, fighting against Concubine Yu... I have my own uses for this person. Except today. Is there any other news in the palace regarding this matter?"
"Calm down for now."
"good."
Qi Chengyi picked up an old bamboo-colored green shirt and put it on to cover the old and new wounds on his back: "Attend the banquet."
"Your Highness, is this thing too shabby?" The man in black had a complicated expression.
"As Qi Chengyi, shouldn't I be shabby?" Qi Chengyi sneered.
"This is... it should be shabby."
