Chapter 11: Yongzheng Awakens for the First Time

  The next day

  Outside the boat window, a fine rain drifted away, falling silently, like countless golden silkworms spitting out silver threads. Lightly floating in mid-air, it was as if the river surface had been covered with a white gauze like cicada wings, like an immortal realm.

  The person in the cabin had been awake for a while, and seeing the clean clothes on his body and the bandaged wound, he knew that someone had saved him.

  He saw blood and thought he was a goner this time!

  His mood was in stark contrast to the outside environment, his heart was complicated beyond measure, mixed with a inexplicable sense of joy and anger.

  Fortunately, he is still alive! Even ants can survive in secret, and he is no exception.

  It was infuriating that Emperor Yongzheng himself came to Jiangnan to investigate the case of corruption, and those corrupt officials who were guilty of bribery and murder had become so brazen as to hire assassins. What made him even angrier was that they could even turn his own bodyguards against him. It seemed that his control was still not enough, which led him into a precarious situation.

  All of this was a misjudgment of the loyalty of one's own guards. It seems that the ability to detect treachery still needs to be strengthened, and it should have been detected and dealt with at the beginning of the betrayal.

  Then there won't be anything next.

  After all, it's still because of one's own insufficient strength!!!

  As for the betrayal of his guard, he was very calm. Since you have the guts to betray, then you must accept his revenge. And those who betrayed him from behind! This account will be settled slowly in the future. He never denied his own petty mind! He has always been a person who must report back with a vengeance.

  It seems that these brothers of mine have become restless and are now more ruthless than ever. In the past, they would just cause some trouble, frame him, or use slow-acting poison, but now they've upgraded to using deadly poisons like cyanide, it's as if they can't wait to get rid of him.

  There's no rush for these things, he has plenty of time to take it slow. What he's more interested in now is who saved him and who cured his poison?

  To know that the blood is sealed, also known as arrow poison wood, is a tree species in Yunnan, southern Guangxi, western Guangdong and Hainan. The latex of the arrow poison wood contains highly toxic substances, which can cause muscle relaxation, blood coagulation, slowed heart rate, and eventually death when entering the human body through wounds.

  Humans and animals will die immediately if they are stabbed by a sharp object coated with this toxic liquid, so it is called "see blood seal throat". If the arrowhead is coated with this toxic liquid or inserted into the trunk of a tree, taking it out to shoot beasts, the beast will die within three steps.

  He didn't know how he hadn't died? How was he rescued by someone?

  The aftertaste in my heart is sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty! Should I be grateful that I'm lucky to be alive or should I be grateful that I'm so annoying that even the King of Hell doesn't want me? ???

  A cold light flashed in his eyes, and a sneer spread across his face.

  Able to solve the poisonous blood seal, such a capable person, he must be taken for his own use. However, there is no hurry, wait until the identity is clear, and then slowly plan. He has always been patient.

  "Knock knock..."

  At this time, footsteps came from outside the door.

  The door creaked open and Zi Lian came in with the medicine and food. "Young master, you're finally awake! Hurry up and drink the medicine while it's still hot, that way you'll recover faster."

  Yin Zan didn't say a word, he just took a glance at Zi Lian, picked up the bowl and drank it all in one gulp. He knew that he could survive this, the medicine must have taken great effect, and he wouldn't neglect his own life.

  Zi Lian was seen by Yi Zhen with that one glance, and she only felt a gust of cool wind blowing past, cold and chilling, and she involuntarily wrapped her arms around herself.

  "How long was I unconscious?"

  "The young master has been unconscious for two days and two nights!" Zi Lian handed over the tray, "Must be hungry! Drink some porridge to warm up your stomach!"

  "Where is your master?"

  Alright! This person doesn't have the slightest awareness of being a guest, asking so naturally. He didn't suspect that Zilian saved him, Zilian looks like a maid at first glance.

  A slave would not dare take in a stranger without his master's orders.

  "Have dinner with the old master and mistress, young masters!" Zi Lian replied. "To be honest, you should thank my family's Gege, if it wasn't for Gege being sharp-eyed and seeing you floating on the river, calling people to rescue you. Probably, you would have been a dead body by now!"

  "Who is your husband?"

  "My family's old master is surnamed Lin and is a newly appointed second-grade scholar of the Imperial Academy."

  Yongzheng understood as soon as he heard it. It turned out to be Lin Ruhai. As for Lin Ruhai, he still had an impression of him, after all, he was a person trusted and reused by his imperial father, who had been in the position of salt inspector for nearly ten years, bringing in a lot of silver for the tense national treasury.

  At this time, Zilian finally reacted and wondered how he asked her a question, she didn't even think about it, and blurted out.

  After dinner, Lin Ruhai drank a mouthful of tea and asked, "Qing'er, I heard that you had someone rescued from the water yesterday."

  Lin Ziqian and the triplets all perked up their ears to listen, while Lin Daiyu also looked at them with a hint of curiosity.

  Chen Lanqi heard this and also remembered what the servant had reported, saying that when the person was pulled out of the water, he was covered in blood and seemed to have been poisoned. Suddenly, she felt a surge of anger and scolded slightly, "Qing'er, you really are something! You don't even know who that person is, yet you still saved him! What if he's a bandit? Wouldn't that bring trouble upon yourself?"

  "Don't worry, Mother! Nothing's wrong!"

  Lin Qingyu's sweet voice calmed the anxiety and annoyance in her heart. "Besides, that person saved my brothers! I'm saving him, it's just returning the favor. Two favors cancel each other out, no one owes anyone anything."

  "A few days ago, that person!?" Lin Ziqian asked with a definite tone.

  "Hmm!" Lin Qingyu nodded, I just felt a little familiar, so I let people rescue him, who knew it was him!

  "What's going on?"

  Lin Ruhai heard that it was his son's benefactor and immediately asked.

  Several children looked at me, I looked at them, and finally Lin Zijian returned with a covering face expression in the three Baozi, saying: "Ama, a few days ago, my younger brothers ran across the road, because they were too excited, didn't look ahead, almost got hit by a horse carriage. Luckily someone saved them."

  "Hmm! What his identity is has nothing to do with us. It's enough that we know he's our benefactor, so let's take good care of him until he recovers." Lin Ruhai didn't want to get involved in other people's grudges, but since they had received kindness, they should repay it. Seeing Lin Qingyu and Lin Ziqian nodding, she turned her head to scold the three little rascals: "What did you promise when you went out?"

  "Amma, we were wrong!" The three little buns bowed their heads in unison and said. "Please punish us, Amma!"

  "If you know your mistake, then copy out the Analects of Confucius fifty times as punishment?"

  "Amma, I want to see if that person is awake?" Lin Qingyu had a lot of curiosity about that person.

  "Uh-huh!" Lin Ruhai nodded and waved his hand, saying: "Go on!"

  "Mother Ama, forgive me for taking my leave!" Lin Qingyu bowed and bid farewell.

  Lin Qingyu took Mo Jue and slowly headed in the direction of Yun Zan.

  As she walked to the door, she heard a cold voice coming from inside asking about Zilian. Lin Qingyu coughed lightly to make sure she could be heard and pushed open the door to enter.

  Xuan Zhen raised his head to look and saw a girl wearing a light green dress with small white jasmine flowers embroidered on it walking in.

  Ink-like black hair, simply coiled into a bun, several plump and round white pearls scattered randomly among the hair, making the raven-black hair even more poetic and lustrous.

  The chubby little face, the bright and clear eyes, a pair of dimples that seem to appear and disappear, the fair skin with a warm glow, the whole person looks like a white jade carved doll, making people like it from the bottom of their heart.

  She quietly looked at him, a faint smile floating between her red lips: "It seems that your spirit is not bad, so I can rest assured! At least I won't worry about you dying!"

  "Fourth Master!"

  "Huh?!" Lin Qingyu was confused, what does this mean?! Please forgive her and his thinking, not on the same frequency. Completely didn't understand what he was saying!!

  Yin Zan was amused by Lin Qingyu's expression, his mouth corners slightly raised, "I'm ranked fourth, call me Fourth Master!"

  "Fourth Master!"

  Sweat~~~~Waterfall sweat~~~~~

  Alright! Lin Qingyu seemed to have some idea who the person in front of her was.

  Ranked fourth, with a long face and phoenix eyes, and the cold air that is always emanating from him, his body exudes the elegance and nobility unique to the imperial prince, all of which indicate that this person's identity is Yongzheng, the current Fourth Prince! The future Emperor Yongzheng.

  Lin Qingyu took a deep breath of cold air. If it weren't for the fact that he was his younger brother's benefactor and had saved him, would he have died from poisoning?

  This gave her a strange feeling, as if she had traveled through time just to save Yongzheng by mistake.

  No way! No way! This can't be true!

  Lin Qingyu is not calm, like a bird in the wind, chaotic...

  I'm really too tired, so I'll just post these for now!
