C90 (1/2)
Under the dim light, Yue Luo Xue clearly saw that face, and her entire body couldn't help but be stunned. His entire face was filled with crisscrossing scars, with potholes all over.
It was the bodyguard Yu Zeng whom they had met several times before!
Yue Luo Xue's heart shook, her eyes suddenly became red, and her voice became choked with sobs: ”Big … ”Senior apprentice-brother.”
Yu Zeng's convulsing body suddenly trembled, he did not even raise his head, and spoke with a hoarse voice: ”You have recognized the wrong person, hurry up and leave, if you are discovered, you will be implicated.”
”Eldest Brother, I know it's you!” Yue Luo Xue bent over and handed a pill to him, ”First stabilize your injuries, I'll take you away.”
Yu Zeng raised his head, and roared deeply: ”I am not your Big Senior, so what do you care! ”Hurry up and leave!”
Yue Luo Xue bit her lips, tears welling up in her eyes. Without saying a word, she stuffed the pill into the man's mouth: ”I know you are, hurry up and take the pill to recover your strength, German king is not dead yet, Eldest Senior Brother won't give up like that, right?”
Yu Zeng's eyes reddened, and he did not continue arguing nor did he admit that he was Ceng Tian Yu. He lowered his head and said: ”I've taken the medicine, go on.
Yue Luo Xue's tears could not help but fall down. It really was the eldest senior brother! The paper money that had been burned in the ruins of the Duskmoon Mansion, as well as the note in the tavern, why had she not recognized her eldest senior brother earlier!
Reaching out his hand to take Ceng Tian Yu's pulse, Yue Luo Xue's beautiful eyebrows creased for a moment. ”Eldest senior brother, let's talk after we leave this place.”
If she left, perhaps people would suspect her, but she did not have the time to care about that now. Ceng Tian Yu's heart meridian had been damaged, she needed to treat it as soon as possible.
”No, Little Snow, you go back first. I can leave.” Ceng Tian Yu's words were equivalent to admitting his identity. His eyes were still the same as before, gentle, carrying the care and concern his brother had for his sister.
Looking at that expression, it was as if Yue Luo Xue had instantly returned to the past and returned to before she was nine years old. However, that scarred face was a reminder that everything had changed.
”Eldest senior brother, I'll take you away first. They'll find this place soon.” Yue Luo Xue looked around, and actually, she did not know how to leave either, but she could not stay here for long.
He extended his hand to help Ceng Tian Yu up, but then he heard the sound of the courtyard door opening and closing. Yue Luo Xue held her fingers together, ready to attack.
A lady dressed in palace maid attire walked out and unexpectedly bowed towards Yue Luo Xue: ”Miss Luo Xue, please hand this Sir over to me.”
”Who are you?” Yue Luo Xue asked vigilantly.
The palace maid did not say anything, but revealed the identity plate on his waist, it was the order badge from the King Xuan Palace! Was it Na Lan Rong Xuan who sent them?
”Miss, don't worry. There's someone outside.” The palace maid lowered his eyebrows and looked extremely respectful.
Yue Luo Xue nodded, since it was Na Lan Rong Xuan's men, then she would be relieved, and support Ceng Tian Yu into the room, only then did she know there was a secret passage inside.
The palace maid received Ceng Tian Yu and said: ”Prince said to be careful.”
Yue Luo Xue nodded and looked at Ceng Tian Yu: ”Big Senior, wait for me to return.”
Ceng Tian Yu nodded, he knew the rumors regarding Yue Luo Xue and Na Lan Rong Xuan. Seeing that Na Lan Rong Xuan seemed to really care about her junior, he felt relieved.
Yue Luo Xue avoided the guards who were looking everywhere, and returned to the banquet once again. The number of guards around him had doubled, and looked anxious.
Liu Cheng Feng stood not far away, and beside him stood a middle-aged man who was about the same height as him. The only difference was that his body was a little fat, and his appearance was somewhat similar to the German king.
Yue Luo Xue's gaze swept across the crowd and saw the anxious face of Liu Qing Qing, as if she was also looking for something in the crowd.
After calculating the time, it was about time for the effects of the poison to take effect. Indeed, a moment later, Liu Qing Qing started to scratch her body, and a cold smile flashed across Yue Luo Xue's face. Liu Qing Qing wanted to make a fool of her at the palace banquet, but it was a pity that she did not know she was a doctor, and even more so a poison master!
Liu Qing Qing only felt more and more itchy on her body, and it was even extremely hot. She secretly cursed in her heart, didn't she use the medicine on Yue Luo Xue? She originally wanted her to ruin her reputation by being unable to endure the itchiness and heat, while the banquet was still bustling with people.
But why was she the one feeling bad right now?
Realizing that something was amiss, Liu Qing Qing wanted to escape in the chaos, but Yue Luo Xue would not give her the chance to do so.
”Princess, you drank too much?” Yue Luo Xue intentionally squeezed in front of Liu Qing Qing and grabbed her, preventing her from leaving. Her voice was loud, and immediately attracted the attention of everyone around.
Liu Qing Qing was about to lose control, and said coldly: ”This princess is tired, I'll go rest for a bit.”
