Chapter 270 Emperor Jing's life lamp went out
Zong Kui's words really made the kind smile on Empress Dowager Xie's lips freeze. She looked at Su Jixue with scrutiny, as if trying to judge what Zong Kui meant.
Identity?
A life-and-death feud?
A name suddenly came to mind, making Empress Dowager Xie's eyes suddenly sharp.
However, Su Jixue seemed unaware of this, and still looked rude: "You and I are mortal enemies. Regent, you don't know how the War King was harmed to his current state, do you?!"
"I am the future Princess of War. The status of a War King will affect my offspring!"
Su Jixue said seriously.
Empress Dowager Xie was speechless, but her sharp eyes softened again.
Zong Kui felt as if he had eaten a fly. He never thought that Ji Xue's role as a useless daughter of a wealthy family would be so speechless.
However, Su Jixue ignored their expressions and looked at Queen Mother Xie with a smile: "It's all thanks to the spiritual blood in the Queen Mother's hand. Otherwise, I'm afraid Ji Xue's fiancé's life would not be saved at all!"
"Empress Dowager, Ji Xue will take the remaining spirit blood and medicinal herbs back later."
Su Jixue looked at Empress Dowager Xie expectantly.
The smile on Empress Dowager Xie's face was a little stiff. She glanced at Zong Kui and said, "The Regent should have only given half of the antidote."
The meaning is obvious, which is to ask Su Jixue not to take the medicine away.
But Su Jixue seemed not to hear: "Who knows when the Regent will fulfill all the conditions? Queen Mother, our War Prince needs these medicines more now. It can't be that the Regent can use them but the War Prince can't, right?"
Su Jixue looked at Empress Dowager Xie with an innocent look on her smiling face.
"How is that possible? Of course the King of War can use it." The smile on Empress Dowager Xie's lips was a little bitter. You know, she didn't know how much spiritual blood Su Jixue would use, so she kept some extra.
But if these were given to Prince Zhan, Queen Mother Xie would feel resentful.
"The Queen Mother is really the best!" Su Jixue looked at Queen Mother Xie with admiration, and this look made Zong Kui speechless.
Bei Su's teeth were almost broken. Why did Ji Xue look even more infuriating after being reborn?!
"It's mainly because you're such a lovable kid." Empress Dowager Xie's smile became even more forced. After she finished speaking, she looked at Zong Kui and said, "Prince Regent, is this antidote still working?"
Empress Dowager Xie didn't want to talk to Su Jixue anymore, for fear that she would be angry to death.
"Thanks to the spiritual blood provided by the Queen Mother, otherwise this antidote might not be possible." Zong Kui said lightly, but his eyes fell on Su Jixue.
In fact, she must know whose blood it is.
But Zong Kui did not see any resentment or anger in Su Jixue. Given Su Jixue's character, she would never let it go if her blood was used like this.
At this moment, Zong Kui had already thought of putting all the blame on Empress Dowager Xie.
"It's all thanks to the Queen Mother, otherwise our King Zhan would not have been saved!" Su Jixue also said what Zong Kui said.
Su Jixue's infuriating expression of gratitude made Empress Dowager Xie and Zong Kui feel a little upset.
The fact that the War King was rescued would in itself make Empress Dowager Xie and Zong Kui very upset. In addition, the medicine that could save the War King was provided by them. More than just upset, they were completely heartbroken.
"Prince Zhan is the pillar of our Dongchu. It is Dongchu's fortune to be able to save Prince Zhan, and it also makes me particularly relieved." The smile on the corners of Empress Dowager Xie's mouth had long been frozen into stone. She was holding Su Jixue's hand, so she was unwilling to show any reluctance at all.
"But what makes me most happy is that Dongchu has a miracle doctor like Jixue, which gives me hope."
"Miss Su, why don't you stay here and keep me company as originally planned?"
Empress Dowager Xie still wanted to keep Su Jixue.
"Okay, the Queen Mother's pharmacy is very useful. Ji Xue can help King Zhan prepare medicine here." Su Jixue had actually made up her mind when she came. Emperor Ming's storehouse had been looted, and Queen Mother Xie should have a lot of medicine in stock.
This is a completely different answer from that in the Golden Palace.
Empress Dowager Xie was slightly stunned. She was prepared to be rejected, but she didn't expect Su Jixue to agree so readily.
Zong Kui didn't expect Su Jixue to agree, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
"I am sorry to bother the Queen Mother too." Zong Kui said directly.
"But it's not very convenient. I and Miss Su are both here, and it's difficult to explain clearly." This time, Empress Dowager Xie directly refused.
She already understood what Zong Kui meant. Zong Kui probably wanted to leave quickly.
This means that the agreement between the two countries may break down.
Empress Dowager Xie is not stupid, she will not bear this result.
"Thank you, Queen Mother..." Zong Kui frowned. This answer seemed beyond his expectations.
"Why, the Regent is not trying to force us to do something." Empress Dowager Xie glanced at Zongkui with a smile, and also pointed out the question Zongkui had asked before. Empress Dowager Xie would not change her answer.
"Since Empress Dowager Xie has said so, I will definitely not insist on staying. Beisu, push me to find Emperor Ming." Zong Kui looked at Su Jixue deeply and spoke lightly.
"Jinning, go and send the Regent off." Although Empress Dowager Xie's eyes flashed with displeasure when Zongkui mentioned Emperor Ming, she did not say much.
Aunt Jinning followed Zongkui out directly.
"You must be tired today. Ziwei has already cleaned up your accommodation for you. Go and have a rest." Empress Dowager Xie let go of Su Jixue's hand and winked at Ziwei.
"Miss Su, please come with me to rest." Aunt Ziwei said dutifully, with a face full of respect and no longer the unconvinced look from before.
Su Jixue even dared to confront Empress Dowager Xie directly in the Golden Palace. Although Ziwei was dissatisfied, she knew who she could and could not offend.
"Then please let Aunt Ziwei lead the way." Chunya said directly. Su Jixue ignored Ziwei at all.
Empress Dowager Xie looked at Su Jixue's arrogance and felt relieved. In the eyes of Empress Dowager Xie, Su Jixue was indeed young and hot-tempered, with some thoughts, but not many.
But at this moment, Zong Kui had already left the Cining Palace.
"Master..." Bei Su glanced warily at the Dong Chu secret guards lying in ambush in the dark, and asked in a low voice, "Are we really leaving?"
Bei Su could feel that Zong Kui seemed to have suddenly changed his mind.
"Let's leave tonight." Zong Kui also lowered his voice. As he spoke, he handed the pendant on his neck directly to Bei Su.
This is a pendant hanging on a silver chain. The pendant is an exquisite rattan object and looks a little special.
When Bei Su saw the pendant, his breathing stopped.
"master!"
Bei Su took the pendant and looked at it carefully in disbelief. The rattan pendant was particularly dim in the night, instead of glowing like a firefly as it should have.
There is a life lamp inside that is connected to Emperor Jing of Nanqing, but now it is extinguished.
