Rebirth Of Medical Princess - C230
Picking up the scroll in Song Mingzhi’s room, Qin Feng discovered that there was a red mark on the wall corresponding to the scroll. Seeing this red mark, Qin Feng’s heart trembled slightly, because she knew that the red mark was emitting a smell like a poison from the Western Regions.
Qin Feng frowned her eyebrows, how could there be such a poison in the room for a person like Song Mingzhi who was not proficient in medicine? Thinking about it here, Qin Feng felt that it was even weirder.
Qin Feng lightly touched the red, irregular, blood-red imprint with her finger. She slightly frowned, this unique poison that came from the Western Regions was a type of chronic poison. This medicine could not harm a person’s body, but it could continuously confuse them.
Thinking about it, Qin Feng was able to conclude that there were people in Song Mingzhi’s Black Butterfly Villa who wanted to harm Song Mingzhi, but right now, Qin Feng still could not determine who was the one who wanted to harm Song Mingzhi, but it seemed that the person wanted to control Song Mingzhi, and not kill him.
“Who is it?” Qin Feng muttered to herself. Actually, Qin Feng was very surprised to see this kind of Western poison which she had not seen for many years in this place. It seemed that the reason Song Mingzhi had a violent temper and an eccentric personality was because his mind had always been affected by this kind of poison.
Qin Feng used her nails to scratch that red mark, and discovered that there was a small button at the center of the red mark. Qin Feng hesitated for a moment, but in that moment, a dagger suddenly broke through the wall and rushed towards Qin Feng!
In a flash, Qin Feng’s shoulder was already cut by the dagger, but fortunately Qin Feng dodged quickly, and it seemed that the dagger was already rather old, as if she had hid it here for many years. Because of this, the speed of the dagger slowed down because of a little bit of rust. Otherwise, Qin Feng would have died in this room.
However, there was one thing that Qin Feng didn’t quite understand. Was it that Song Mingzhi hadn’t discovered that there was poison here for such a long time? Could it be that he didn’t feel that he was poisoned at all? Even if he couldn’t feel it on his body, did he not see this red mark?
The more Qin Feng thought about it, the weirder she felt it to be. However, at this moment, the sound of footsteps came from outside the door.
“Qin Feng? Why are you in my room? ” Following the sound of the door opening, Song Mingzhi stood at the doorway with a stunned face, looking at Qin Feng who was standing in the room with her arms still bleeding. Qin Feng turned her head around and saw the astonished and panicked look on Song Mingzhi’s face.
“Why did you come back?” Qin Feng frowned slightly. Only now did she feel that her arm was bleeding, and that the wound was tearing in pain. But the Song Mingzhi at this time couldn’t care so much anymore, she anxiously propped the injured Qin Feng up, tore a corner of her own clothes, and anxiously looked at Qin Feng.
“Qin Feng, tell me how should I treat you?” Song Mingzhi seemed to be more concerned about why Qin Feng was injured for no reason at all. He didn’t even want to bother about other matters now.
Qin Feng clenched her teeth, and her eyebrows knitted tightly together in pain.
“First, tear off my sleeve. Otherwise, the bacteria on my sleeve will cause my injuries to worsen …” Even though Qin Feng was in pain, she tried her best to remain calm. Qin Feng knew that the dagger had deeply pierced her arm.
Song Mingzhi did as Qin Feng said, ripping off the sleeve on Qin Feng’s arm, revealing Qin Feng’s snow-white arm, as well as that sinister wound that was bleeding blood. Seeing such a wound, Song Mingzhi’s face immediately became ugly.
“Qin Feng, why are you so careless? Don’t you know that you should properly protect yourself?” In Song Mingzhi’s eyes, no matter who it was that hurt Qin Feng, including Qin Feng herself, she could not let it happen so easily.
Qin Feng grinned, although his smile was a little pale, it was still very relaxed.
“Why is there a dagger in your room? “I just wanted to take a look at your room, and somehow got stabbed by the dagger that shot out of your room.” As Qin Feng said this, she tried her best to make her lies sound as real as possible, so Qin Feng strangely looked at Song Mingzhi with an extremely wronged gaze.
Hearing Qin Feng’s words, Song Mingzhi was first stunned, then he looked at Qin Feng in confusion at the picture scroll on her shelf that had already been moved by Qin Feng. Song Mingzhi’s expression immediately became unsightly. Previously, he was cold towards Qin Feng, but now, his face became gloomy.
This kind of change immediately caused Qin Feng to realize that this scroll was especially important to him, and it even seemed to contain complex emotions that Qin Feng could not understand. However, Qin Feng could tell that the memories this scroll gave Song Mingzhi were not very good, and she could even see traces of hatred on Song Mingzhi’s face.
“Did you move that scroll?” Song Mingzhi’s face was extremely ugly, it even carried a bit of sternness. When Qin Feng heard this, she instantly felt as if she had touched Song Mingzhi’s sore spot. She saw that Song Mingzhi had opened up the scroll painting.
Could it be that the man on the scroll had a deep grudge with Song Mingzhi? When she thought of this, Qin Feng suddenly guessed that the person on the scroll was probably Song You.
“What, you know the person on this scroll?” When she said that, Qin Feng’s face was blank as if she didn’t know anything, but in reality, Qin Feng had long guessed that the person on the scroll was Song You.
Song Mingzhi did not speak, only had a gloomy face, as if he had not heard Qin Feng at all. However, Qin Feng was clear in her heart that it was not that Song Mingzhi did not hear him, it was just that she pretended not to hear anything.
“The person on the painting is Song You, there is a lot of dust on this painting, all these years I have never taken a single glance at it, I have already sworn, that even if this painting was right in my room, I would not even look at it.” Every word that Song Mingzhi said was filled with hatred.
Qin Feng let out a light laugh, and a complicated expression quickly flashed across her face.
“So you haven’t touched that painting in such a long time, have you?” Only now did Qin Feng know why Song Mingzhi didn’t know that he had been poisoned all this time. Furthermore, she had never known that there was actually a dagger hidden behind the painting.
Qin Feng was injured, and it was because of this wish that Song Mingzhi did not pursue the matter of why Qin Feng ran into her own room to escape this calamity.
However, at this very moment, within the Imperial Palace, Xuanyuan Zhiling had not slept for three whole days and three nights. Because today, the Phantom Fire Kingdom plague was rampant, and the victims were fleeing everywhere, Xuanyuan Zhiling repeatedly distributed food and silver to the victims.
Xuanyuan Zhiling had been extremely anxious in the past few days, but every time he got tired and tired, he would still think of Qin Feng. If Qin Feng was there, she would definitely give him very good advice and give him some heart and soul comfort.
Actually, Xuanyuan Zhiling had already known in his heart that Qin Feng had most likely already gone to the Black Butterfly Villa, but he still couldn’t help but be worried for Qin Feng. Song Mingzhi had always wanted to get hold of Qin Feng and now that Qin Feng was right in front of him, would he …
As if he had thought of an extremely terrifying possibility, Xuanyuan Zhiling’s heart fiercely trembled. He started to worry that Qin Feng would be together with Song Mingzhi because he was angry at him, although Xuanyuan Zhiling did not really believe that Qin Feng would fall in love with him.
“Your majesty, it’s time for you to rest. It’s been three days.” Qiu Shangjing entered the palace to report to Xuanyuan Zhiling about the situation of the victims. Seeing that Xuanyuan Zhiling was still sitting at the same table with a heavy and determined face, Qiu Shangjing couldn’t help but start to worry for him.
But Xuanyuan Zhiling shook his head lightly, his lips were slightly pale.
“It’s alright, if we really fall, Qin Feng might come back after receiving the news.” As she spoke, Xuanyuan Zhiling gave a pale smile, and a trace of sadness quickly flashed across his face. If not for Qin Feng, he really would have felt powerless.
When Qiu Shangjing heard these words, he let out a soft sigh. Seeing Xuanyuan Zhiling like this, he suddenly understood why he would give so much for Qin Feng, because the emperor only had the empress in his heart.
“Your majesty, even if you miss the empress, you have to think for our people in Phantom Fire Kingdom. They need you, and you are their everything. If you give up, what will they do?” Qiu Shangjing had always been worried about the nation, and it was precisely because of this person’s encouragement that he had come this far.
No matter what, Qiu Shangjing was always a good helper for Xuanyuan Zhiling. However, there were times when Xuanyuan Zhiling really felt that Qiu Shangjing made him feel extremely miserable.
“They need me? They have things that they can seek justice for me, but who will seek justice for me? “Who will care about me? Who will tell me what to do now?” Xuanyuan Zhiling let out a cold laugh. He suddenly felt that his emperor’s actions were very sorrowful, not because he couldn’t manage a country well, but because as an emperor, he was actually unable to protect his most beloved woman.
Every time he thought about it, Xuanyuan Zhiling felt that he was the one who had let Qin Feng down. It was he who caused Qin Feng to not be with the person he loved, and to still live in Black Butterfly Villa.
“Your majesty, it’s precisely because you’re the emperor that others can’t control their own fate, but you can. Not only can you control your own fate, you can also control the fate of others. This is your fate!” Qiu Shangjing’s words were sharp, every word was like a needle piercing into Xuanyuan Zhiling’s heart.
Xuanyuan Zhiling laughed bitterly. This was the first time since he became the emperor that he felt powerless.
“Yes, we have control over their fate, but you are wrong on one point, we simply do not have control over our own fate. If we can control our own fate, would we have Qin Feng leave me again and again?” When Xuanyuan Zhiling said this, his eyes actually flashed with traces of tears.
Qiu Shangjing sighed softly. He knew that Xuanyuan Zhiling only had the Empress in his heart, but the reality was so cruel.
“Does Your Majesty really want to abandon so many citizens and go find the empress by yourself?” Qiu Shangjing suddenly started to worry. He was worried that Xuanyuan Zhiling would be impulsive, worried that Xuanyuan Zhiling would miss Qin Feng too much, and so he went to Black Butterfly Villa alone.
Unexpectedly, Xuanyuan Zhiling shook his head gently and smiled bitterly.
Did I say that I wanted to go alone to find Qin Feng? Right now, Qin Feng is much more blissful than if she were to follow us. When Xuanyuan Zhiling said this, he immediately felt Xuanyuan Zhiling’s sadness as an emperor; he couldn’t even properly protect his own home.
