Chapter 1220: Chapter 1219: Seven Emotions and Six Desires

In a haze, Chu Jiangnan seemed to smell a faint fragrance.

This fragrance, initially very light, suddenly became rich in an instant.

The moment the strong scent hit his nose, a rush of blood roiled in his chest.

Chu Jiangnan wanted to step forward, but before he could take a step, his mouth suddenly opened, and he spat out a mouthful of blood!

The blood was black!

"Your Majesty!"

"Not good, the Emperor has been poisoned! Who did it?"

"It must be Chu Qianli, only Chu Qianli would have had the chance to poison the Emperor!"

"Chu Qianli not only attempted to assassinate the State Preceptor but also wanted to poison the Emperor, her crimes are unforgivable!"

"Bring the order down, capture Chu Qianli immediately. If she resists, kill her without mercy!"

"It’s not... not her..." These were the last few words Chu Jiangnan uttered before losing consciousness.

The noise around him grew distant, and finally, he completely lost his strength, sinking into darkness.

...

Chu Qianli and Lan Qing left the Imperial Palace just before dawn.

All the way, Lan Qing felt somewhat groggy and unclear-headed.

The medicine Chu Qianli used on him was very potent indeed, and the pain was almost unbearable.

In a daze, he forgot what he had been through and only knew that he’d been holding onto something due to the pain.

Finally, amidst intense pain, he passed out.

When he awoke, he faintly heard people talking.

"I heard that the Emperor vomited blood last night and is still unconscious."

"...As the lady predicted, the lady has now become wanted, and the Prince has given the order to kill without mercy."

"...Yes, but they have described the events in a very disgraceful manner..."

This voice, Lan Qing found unfamiliar.

Because of its unfamiliarity, it made him feel uneasy.

Grasping tightly onto a stone next to him, he realized that they seemed to be in a cave.

No, he was in a cave.

Wind filtered through the cave entrance, carrying with it a hint of coolness.

The direction from which the voice came was the same as the breeze.

They were outside the cave.

Finally, he heard a familiar voice, "How disgraceful is their description?"

It was Chu Qianli’s voice.

Lan Qing hadn’t expected that one day, he would feel safe just by hearing someone’s voice.

The other person talking, whom Lan Qing didn’t recognize, was Gan Shiyi.

Shiyi said, "They claim... claim that the State Preceptor and the Emperor’s woman behaved improperly, and even poisoned the Emperor."

"Utterly absurd!" Chu Qianli snorted coldly.

Inside the cave, suddenly there was a sound of spitting blood.

Chu Qianli’s heart jolted, and she immediately turned and entered, "State Preceptor, how are you?"

"Lan Fan... wants to destroy my reputation..." Lan Qing gritted his teeth, his breath was too chaotic, nearly causing him to vomit blood again.

"Stop being angry, in your current state, the more anger you harbor, the more you harm yourself and fulfill those people’s wishes."

Chu Qianli supported him to sit down on the tatami, pulling over a blanket to cover him.

"Your eyesight hasn’t recovered yet, nor has your Inner Strength, going out now will not only fail to prove your innocence but also lead to dying under their schemes."

"Chu Qianli..."

"You haven’t burdened me, and I haven’t burdened you, it’s of no use to say these things at this point, right?"

Chu Qianli knew what he wanted to say.

Having known each other for so long, it was the first time she had seen a look of guilt on Lan Qing’s face.

The seven emotions and six desires seemed, on his face, to be growing more evident.

"Shiyi, since he has woken, quickly tell us what you heard outside."

What she cared about most now was another matter.

Although, she herself did not understand why she cared so much.

"How is the Emperor... now?"
