The daughter of the emperor is reborn, and the evil prince loves her very much

Chapter 173: Incorporating Forces

Chu Ci got up and walked to the rattan chair in the yard and sat down. Although he was holding a book in his hand, his mind was not on the book at all, and he didn't turn the page for a long time.

The autumn leaves gradually turn yellow, and the withered yellow leaves fall down, which also means that the cold winter is coming.

Several maids were very worried because their master had never been in such a situation before.

At this time, Chu Ci's thoughts were still on what Princess Jingle had just said.

Princess Jingle understood the hidden meaning behind what she had just said. Was her time running out? Was she going to stay in the position of Princess Rui for much longer? Was that person coming back? Who was that person?

At this time, Chu Ci was confused by Princess Jingle.

Lin Feng and Yun Sheng were also very strange. Their behavior told her that there was something they were hiding from her.

What is Cang Mo doing?

Chu Ci took out the Buddhist beads from his arms, played with them in his hands, and stared at the cracked beads in a daze.

But seeing Princess Jingle so righteous and confident, as if what she said was true, she became a little suspicious. After all, Cang Mo felt something was wrong during this period.

Chu Ci's thoughts were flying all over the place. Before long, she had made two preparations. If Cang Mo was really willing to speak, she would let it go.

But if this matter is false, of course, she will not let it go.

Princess Jingle is not the only one who spreads rumors. If we go by years, she has lived a lifetime longer than them and is a figure on the same level as their ancestor.

In the evening, Chu Ci went to bed early. She still had things to do tonight, but it was better for these little maids not to know. Since some things had not been confirmed yet, she also needed to keep some cards in reserve.

If she is destined to lose one day, she doesn't have to lose so badly.

Chu Ci slowly closed his eyes, "You guys go out, I'm sleepy."

Several maids looked at Chu Ci worriedly, and when they saw that she really wanted to sleep and had closed her eyes, they slowly left.

However, at night, two little maids were guarding the door. They were afraid that their master would think of bad things and be secretly sad in the middle of the night.

At midnight, Chu Ci closed his eyes, and a chill suddenly appeared on his neck.

Chu Ci slowly opened his eyes, looked at the newcomer calmly, and yawned fiercely, "If you don't come soon, I'm going to fall asleep."

Just as Chu Ci finished speaking, the long sword on his neck deepened. "Princess Chaoyang, it seems you have already calculated this. But it doesn't matter. Then, have you figured out why I came here today? Have you figured out where to bury yourself?"

"Lord Chaoyang, I never thought that all my people would be ruined by you. I have almost dealt with those who framed me. Now, you are the only one left."

After the man finished speaking, he applied a little more force to his hands, and a small blood mark appeared on Chu Ci's neck.

Chu Ci felt the coldness and slight pain on his neck, but he remained calm. "Don't you find it strange? With so many people around me, you were able to break in so easily. Do you really think I wasn't prepared at all?"

The man snorted coldly, "I don't care. No matter what happened, your life is in my hands now. I don't care about those things. My people are dead anyway. Now my only wish is to avenge them and take your life."

Chu Ci pushed the sword away with his hand, the smile on his face deepening. "Want revenge? This revenge is not easy to take. Since you are here, I will tell you directly. I asked you to collect all their bodies. Did you do it?"

Seeing Chu Ci so calm, the man put away the sword in his hand and sat opposite Chu Ci. He wanted to keep a certain distance between the two of them so that at the critical moment, he could kill the cunning woman in front of him with one sword.

"Of course I accepted it. Do you think I'm a blood-sucking official like you? I've already prepared the heads of the other people buried with me. Now the only one left is you."

Chu Ci was also quite speechless. Wasn't she an official? "Okay, it's not buried yet?"

Chu Ci looked at the man in front of him and wondered in his heart, would this old man just bury the person?

"Of course not. The people buried with you are not all here yet, so I won't bury you. Now you are the only one left. I just need to chop off your head, and then they can rest in peace."

Chu Ci was speechless. She wanted to save them, but he wanted her to be buried with them.

Chu Ci felt the murderous intent coming and quickly spoke out, fearing that the long sword would arrive before she could finish her words. "They are not dead yet. In fact, my poison makes them fake their death, so ordinary people can't tell."

"Take my antidote and you'll be fine, intact. That's why I asked if you buried it."

Chu Ci said it with such certainty that the man watching didn't know whether to believe it or not.

Chu Ci knew she didn't believe him. "Since I dared to let them let you in, you should know that I am absolutely sure. I won't make it difficult for you. You come to kill me, and I will kill you back. There is nothing wrong with that."

"Now they want me to save them, but what can I get?"

Chu Ci's question made the man speechless. For a man like him, the only thing left was his life.

"Money? I believe Princess Chaoyang has plenty of it. But I only have my life left. As long as Princess Chaoyang is willing to save my brothers, I'm willing to give it to you."

The more sincere the man's words were, the faster Chu Ci shook her head. "I don't want your life. Your life means nothing to me. I want you to be loyal to me and become my personal power."

The man looked at Chu Ci and finally nodded reluctantly. The most important thing now was to save the person and everything else could be tolerated.

"Okay, but I have a condition. The prerequisite is that you wake them all up, otherwise I won't agree."

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in a pile of corpses." Chu Ci took out two porcelain bottles from his arms and threw them to the man, "One for each of you. Go quickly and remember this conversation between the two of us."

The man took the porcelain bottle, still a little skeptical in his heart, but when he thought about the fact that they were already dead, it was just a death at most.

Chu Ci watched him leave, and then she felt relieved. She felt most at ease with her own people by her side. She didn't want to repeat the mistakes of her previous life.
