Chapter 36 Torturing Him Slowly
She rubbed her brows and said, "Anyway, my life is saved. I'm wondering if you could be more careful and not bring anyone into the mansion, or withhold money or something? So many people have rebelled..."

Before he could finish, he heard unusually heavy breathing coming from beside him.

Ye Jinchen's pupils constricted and veins popped out on his forehead, as if he was going to suffocate in the next moment.

Sheng Yunqing pulled open his collar and found a dark patch of evil energy on his chest, which was even more severe than last night.

The evil spirit in him has not been removed at all!

Rather, it was after spitting out the talisman water last night that the talisman that had been suppressed was released.

She formed seals with her hands and chanted a spell to exorcise evil spirits, pointing her hands at the place where the evil spirit was entangled. The black mist shrank when it touched her hands, but was not dispelled.

She hurriedly wrote a talisman and pasted it on, saying, "We can only suppress it temporarily. The evil spirit that possessed me this time is much more powerful than the last time. It should not be underestimated..."

She frowned slightly, remembering that the servant had reported that Zhixing had disappeared after jumping into the lake. When she saw the prince's pleasure boat, she didn't dare to disturb her.

She rolled her eyes and murmured, "This shouldn't be the case..."

She raised her hand and counted carefully with her fingers. She was stunned and found that Zhixing was not dead.

But even if she didn't die, she had seen Zhi Xing before. Even if she really surrendered to the prince, she shouldn't be a threat based on her strength...

She frowned seriously. Now it seemed that Zhixing was not unable to help Bai Jinxiu, but... didn't want to help?
Prince's Mansion.

Zhi Xing sat in front of the dressing table, took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve, poured out the four pills inside, and stared at them for a long time.

"Zhi Xing, there are only five pills of this medicine. It took my master decades of practice to refine it. Taking one pill can increase your strength by ten years. However... you must not take it unless it is absolutely necessary."

This is what the master said to her before he died.

But the master didn't have the time to tell her what the consequences would be.

She put the pills into the bottle, covered it, put it away, closed her eyes and hugged her head, beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, and her heart was always uneasy.

She looked at herself in the bronze mirror, slowly clenched her fists, and said, "Sheng Yunqing, I will not lose to you."

At night, at the Mansion of Marquis Zhenbei.

Sheng Yunqing's room was filled with magic arrays. Ye Jinchen, with his clothes half-undressed, sat cross-legged in the magic array, closing his eyes and meditating.

Sheng Yunqing pointed at him with two fingers and said with concentration: "The righteous energy of the Heavenly Gang will destroy the evil and exterminate the evil, and it will be as urgent as the law commands!"

As the seals kept changing, the evil spirit on Ye Jinchen became more and more violent and restless.

She wrote a spell in the air and sent it with a palm wind. She held the purple gold gourd in her hand and drew the evil spirit into the gourd: "Evil spirit, come quickly!"

The evil spirit finally left Ye Jinchen's body. The moment it left, Ye Jinchen felt that his body was much more relaxed and he no longer felt as weak as he did during the day.

The evil spirit was bound by Sheng Yunqing's talisman, and no matter how frantic it was, it had to move towards her and be sucked into the gourd.

She quickly closed the lid of the gourd. Beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, her lips turned pale, and she closed her eyes and collapsed in exhaustion.

Ye Jinchen held her by the waist, leaned her against his chest, lifted her face, and said worriedly: "Yunqing? Yunqing? Wake up!"

He picked her up horizontally, walked into the inner room and put her on the bed. He called her for a long time but there was no response.

I remembered that she had just said that if anything happened, I would give her a pill on the table.

He quickly poured out a red pill from the porcelain bottle on the table, took it up her body, and put it into her mouth.

Sheng Yunqing's originally pale face turned rosy at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his originally weak breathing also became stronger.

He lifted her hand and placed it against his forehead, closing his eyes and saying nothing, only breathing a sigh of relief.

Prince's Mansion. "Puff!" Zhi Xing spat out blood from her mouth, and her whole body collapsed.

Her legs nearly fell to the ground, and she propped herself up on the table with both hands. She gritted her teeth and said, "I still lost to you..."

As he was speaking, a white handkerchief was sent to him.

She turned her head and was suddenly startled. It was Ye Jingnian!
She lowered her head guiltily and took a step back, whispering, "Your Highness... I failed..."

Ye Jingnian didn't know whether he was happy or angry. He put his arm around her waist and pulled her close to him, and she looked frightened.

He gently wiped the blood from the corner of her lips with a handkerchief, raised his lips and said, "What are you afraid of? I have already found out that Sheng Yunqing is not easy to deal with. I failed this time, and I don't blame you."

Zhi Xing lowered her head and swallowed, saying softly: "Thank you, thank you for your consideration, Your Highness..."

Ye Jingnian let go of the hand that was hugging her, stood with his hands behind his back and said, "It doesn't matter. I will torture him slowly, slowly."

Zhenbeihou Mansion.

Sheng Yunqing slept until the afternoon of the next day. With Ye Jinchen by her side, she recovered quickly.

When I opened my eyes, Ye Jinchen was looking at me quietly.

"Awake?" Ye Jinchen shouted outside, "Someone, bring the medicine up."

"Yes."

Ye Jinchen helped her up, leaned her against his arms, took the medicine bowl, and fed her carefully.

Sheng Yunqing nestled comfortably in his arms and asked, "Took care of me all night?"

Ye Jinchen's face was full of pity, and he said, "So what if it's just one night? It's not as good as you taking care of me."

She sniffed the abundant purple air, and her energy became even stronger than before. She couldn't help but raise her lips. He was the best tonic.

"You accompanying me is better than anything else in this world."

Ye Jinchen was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and continued to feed her medicine, and asked awkwardly: "Where did you learn these words from?"

Sheng Yunqing raised a beautiful eyebrow and said, "If you don't like it, I won't say it again in the future."

"Like..." Ye Jinchen frowned, coughed lightly, and said, "I didn't say I don't like it."

There was a playful smile in Sheng Yunqing's eyes, and it was the most fun to tease him.

The afternoon sun was not too hot, so the Marquis's Mansion invited a stage to perform a play.

Sheng Yunqing was delighted to watch the play. She had never heard such a wonderful play since she left the Marquis' Mansion as a child.

"Good! Great performance!" She smiled and applauded the actress on the stage.

After a while, the person next to her pulled her sleeve.

Sheng Yunqing was busy cracking melon seeds, his eyes never leaving the stage, but his face turned away.

Sheng Qiuyao whispered in her ear: "Eldest sister, I have discussed the matter of the Prime Minister with my father and mother, and they have agreed."

Sheng Yunqing's eyes lit up, and he turned around and said with a smile: "Really?"

Sheng Qiuyao's face flushed with shyness. She nodded and said, "Father talked to the Prime Minister yesterday. Both families are very satisfied and said... to choose a day for the wedding."

Sheng Yunqing took her hand and said, "Congratulations, you have finally found your soulmate. I will definitely prepare everything for you and make you the best wedding dress."
