Chapter 535: Don't want to die
Chapter 535 Don't want to die
Xiaochenzi ran fast under his feet, and his figure quickly disappeared into the night.
……
When Joe Bing was sent back to the dark room, there was already someone waiting for him in the dark room.
With some effort, he supported his body and sat down on the low couch, looked at the food on the small table in front of him, and asked: "What kind of food is served this hour?"
The old **** who had given him meals for eighteen years sat across from him and smiled a little with a sigh: "It was not allowed. I put some money in the past and gave me a bit of noodles... …"
While talking, lift up the jug and fill the glass.
He poured two glasses of wine.
Qiao Bing looked down and saw that there were also two sets of bowls and chopsticks.
On the small table, there was a wind lantern brought up by the old eunuch, and the firelight dazzled the dark room.
Qiao Bing took out the fire fold and lit the oil lamp at hand.
The old **** took a look and didn't care.
"It's been eighteen years. It seems that this is the first time we have had a meal together. It's a pity that I can't get any decent wine..." The old **** held the wine glass and said in a low voice: "Wait next time, let's go outside the palace to have a drink. I heard that there is a good place called Zhuangyuan Building. The wine is good and the food is good..."
Next time——
Joe Bing also picked up the wine glass.
is the next life.
"I've been to the Zhuangyuan Building." He said, "The wine and dishes are indeed quite good. They are a must in Beijing."
"It's been so many years, remember?"
Qiao Bing nodded with an "um".
"Since you are familiar with the road, then you take me to..." The old **** raised the glass and said dumbly: "Come on, drink this wine, and have a good sleep..."
Qiao Bing looked at the wine in the glass, but shook his head slightly: "But I don't want to die yet."
Especially recently, after having contact and interaction with the outside world, he has gradually become a little greedy.
Then there is the prescription in the Hall of Nourishment tonight——
He was afraid that the emperor deliberately tried, unwilling to expose the matter of the town’s prince, and feared that Tim’er and the queen would be involved, so he temporarily chose to change several key medicines in the prescription. If his wife was really poisoned by this poison, then he would be even more serious. Can't die at this time...
The old **** sighed slightly: "This can't be done by you, nor by me... and drink it, and you won't have to suffer this again in the future."
"No, I'm different from you." Joe Bing put aside his wine glass and said, "I still have things to do."
Seeing him put down the wine glass, the old eunuch’s eyes flashed with a sad and helpless look: "You and I are also together, why bother..."
While talking, he also put the wine cup back, but he found something from under the food box on the side——
The short knife with slightly curved blade gleamed with a sharp cold light.
The old **** seemed to be old, but his movements were agile. When he got up with a short knife, he leaned over and stretched out his hand to press Qiao Bing on the low couch.
Joe Bing did not struggle.
In terms of strength, his crippled body has no room for resistance.
But the old **** could not see in his eyes a trace of sitting and waiting, or fear.
The old **** secretly felt a little strange, and in order to eliminate the faint anxiety in his heart, he had to immediately raise the knife to stab it-this knife can easily cut the opponent's throat, the opponent is free, and he is also free!
However, when the short knife in his hand had just raised his eyebrows, the old eunuch's movements gave a sudden pause.
I waited another moment, only to feel that the numbness and powerlessness spread to the whole body quickly, the short knife fell from his hand, and the person also threw on the pinch in front of him, breathing hard with big mouths.
"...you...you are poisoned..." The old **** stared straight at the supporting Joe Bing with wide eyes. He couldn't figure out when he was poisoned!
Qiao Bing glanced at the flashing oil lamp.
Suddenly to be taken to the face saint today, he had already expected——
Since I have made up my mind and want to live, how can I do it without taking precautions?
The old **** was struggling to touch the short knife, gasping like the harsh sound of a dilapidated window in a rainy night when it slapped against the wind.
He fell into this situation because of the other party. How could he die while the other party is alive! No, he can't die alone!
As the dry finger was about to touch the short knife, Joe Bing picked up the knife and held it in his hand.
"Puff—"
The blade sank into the flesh and blood of his chest.
Practitioners of medicine, especially the genius among them, naturally know **** them with one blow, and minimize the painful time of the other party.
"In the next life, you and I will not enter the palace again... I will meet you outside the palace in the coming day, I will take you to the champion building for a drink and apologize."
Joe must move his body down from the low couch.
However, at this time, there was an impatient urging sound from the entrance of the dark room: "Why can't you come out yet? I'm still waiting to talk to Ji Gong!"
"Go down and take a look!"
Qiao Bing Ying's heart tightened.
Sure enough, there are still people outside!
This consciousness flashed in his mind, and he immediately grabbed the hip flask and threw it down.
"Boom!"
With a sound, the hip flask was smashed to pieces.
No one agreed with him in advance to use the movement as the sign——
He is betting!
He bet that the queen has found him, he won’t let him be killed easily by the emperor!
And if the queen is willing to pay attention, she will not be ignorant of what the emperor wants to do with him tonight!
But in this deep palace, everyone has scruples about everything, and he is not 100% sure...
Qiao must move his body with difficulty, pull out the old eunuch's short knife, press under him, and remain motionless.
The emperor always didn’t want too many people to know about him, so he didn’t want to send too many people. If the people guarding outside heard the movement and come in with him at this time, he will definitely come forward to see if he is still alive——
In this gap, they will inhale the poison in the lamp oil. If he is lucky enough to delay it long enough, there may be a way out!
Qiao Bing fell to the side of the old eunuch, tightly holding the **** knife under him.
However, no footsteps were heard.
What he couldn't see was that the two guards who were standing outside the dark room had been stunned by two ghostly shadows behind themselves.
A black shadow wanted to go down into the dark room, but was pulled by his arm by his companion: "Wait, someone is here..."
The two looked at each other, dragged the two comatose guards to the dark place, and temporarily hid them to wait and see.
A figure came quietly.
The cabinet blocking the entrance of the dark room was removed by the two guards. At this time, the dark room with the lights lit up and there was fire from the entrance. Although it was faint, it was particularly eye-catching in the dark.
"There really is a dark room..."
Little Jiezi swallowed nervously, and went down to the dark room.
"Can someone be there?"
He walked down the stone steps and asked tentatively in a low voice.
When I entered the secret room, I was surprised when I saw two figures beside the table when I looked around.
Dead...dead?
Could it be that he is late?
Little Jiezi hesitated for a moment or stepped forward.
He even noticed that his hands and feet were a little soft-I’ve been in this dark court for a long time, and I haven’t seen any corpses. I shouldn’t have been so scared...
and stepped forward to squat down, and when he was about to turn the person over, he saw that the person suddenly opened his eyes, pressed him under his body, and tightly covered his mouth and nose with something.
