Reborn Lady: Unparalleled Daughter of Concubine-Chapter 296 - Crack to Death
Chapter 296 Crack to Death
“It’s okay. I’m fine,” Du Wei smiled and waved, but his pale face and cold sweat had betrayed his physical condition.
Jing Yuanchu said hurriedly, “Mr. Du looks a little uncomfortable. You’d better go back first.”
“No. No need for that,” Jing Yuanxiao suddenly stopped Du Wei, who wanted to leave quickly, “This time, Shishi happened to send an excellent doctor to follow me. I only knew about it last night. She cured my insomnia with merely a pair of soothing incense. What about inviting her to diagnose Mr. Du?”
“You’ve lauded the doctor to the skies,” Jing Donghua looked at Du Wei. Judging from his pale face, he knew that his body must be out of condition, “Take the doctor here to have a look.”
In a short time, a flock of red hemline swept the city wall stairs place gently. Wearing a jade hairpin and having no makeup, Qin Yunuan came elegantly. Jing Yuanchu recognized her, and Jing Donghua had seen her. She is the little maid beside Elder Princess as well as the master-hand finding out his insect poison and the amazing woman getting rid of the venomous insects in the palace bravely.
“Is this woman working in your mansion?” Jing Yuanchu looked at Jing Yuanxiao half warily. If Qin Yunuan and Leng Changxi succeeded in getting Jing Yuanxiao’s support, it would be much harder to deal with them in the future. He had urged Sima Ray to add more people to kill them. But the message he received in the morning was that the assassin sent by Sima Ray lost contact with him suddenly. Now Qin Yunuan was safe and sound. It seemed that the assassin had been dead.
“Oh, she cannot be counted,” Jing Yuanxiao was really honest, “Before I set out, Shishi temporarily found her for me. You know I am so weak that I can’t even practice ordinary martial arts with you. So Shishi asked her to take care of my body all the way.”
Jing Yuanxiao was always stupid and honest. Jing Yuanchu did not bother to doubt his words. At this time, the guards had brought Du Wei a chaise lounge for him to lie down to have a rest, but it was useless to improve his condition.
“This girl is reliable,” even Jing Donghua said so.
Qin Yunuan smiled a little. Before Du Wei could be prepared, she took the chance to feel his pulse. However, she didn’t seem to do it seriously. She winced suddenly and told Jing Donghua and Jing Yuanchu, who had been standing around nervously, “Please take a step back. Feeling the pulse requires quietness.”
When Jing Yuanchu and Jing Donghua retreated, Qin Yunuan began to observe Du Wei’s face carefully.
“What are you looking at?” Du Wei was lack of blood and Qi, so he said weakly.
“I don’t even have to feel your pulse to know what’s wrong with you,” Qin Yunuan lowered her head and smiled. This shallow smile seemed to be a little weird and gloomy, but in the eyes of others, she was making an inquiry with a cordial smile, “Do you know why?”
Du Wei eagerly looked at her.
Qin Linfeng. He was Qin Linfeng. Even looking at Du Wei face to face, Qin Yunuan still could not believe that the person in front of her was her half-blood brother.
“Because there’s my secret ingredient in the bowl of tremella soup you had this morning.”
Du Wei opened his eyes. He suddenly wanted to cry for help but found that his throat seemed to be strangled and he could not make a sound.
“Stop the attempt to do any struggle,” Qin Yunuan said as she lowered her head and pretended to pack up her medicine box, “Because the medicine I gave you will not only make you weak, blind, and unable to speak but also make the skin you worked so hard to replace yesterday fall apart and crack to death.”
Du Wei’s eyes suddenly opened wide with panic and surprise. He rolled his eyes towards Jing Yuanchu, trying hard to give him a hint. But from the perspective of Jing Yuanchu, it seemed that Du Wei just turned his eyes white without any strength and did not know what he meant.
Du Wei’s biggest secret was known by Qin Yunuan. Du Wei tried his best to twist his body, wanting to be far away from Qin Yunuan, but he was grabbed by her tightly. Since when had the girl become so fierce? A big man as he was, he was dragged by her tightly.
“What are you afraid of?” Qin Yunuan smiled at Du Wei, “Qin Linfeng, you’ve done so many ghost issues only to revenge Dou Qing’e and Qin Yunzhuang. However, during the process, you’ve touched my limits. What’s more, Dou Qing’e and Qin Yunzhuang are guilty themselves. They deserve the consequences. Of course,” Qin Yunuan stopped smiling and stared at the eyes of Du Wei, “you will also get what you planted.”
“Ms. Qin, how is Mr. Du? Can you save him?” Jing Yuanxiao couldn’t help urging her.
Qin Yunuan patted Du Wei’s arm and walked here, “Mr. Du’s body is very weird. It’s hard for me to decide.”
“Weird?” Jing Donghua winced, “Why did you say that?”
“I… can’t feel his pulse,” Qin Yunuan shook her head, pretending to be regretful, “This phenomenon is rare.”
“How could it be?” Jing Yuanchu raised his head, seeing that Du Wei, who was not far from them, suddenly twitched all over and raising several tones to Qin Yunuan, “Or are you actually not capable of doing the job, Ms. Qin?”
“Even if you find another doctor, the result will be the same,” Qin Yunuan stared at Jing Yuanchu. She would take the chance to be against Jing Yuanchu, “Because the skin of Mr. Du doesn’t feel like his own.”
“Not like his own?” Jing Donghua was confused, but once this sentence was out, Du Wei gave out a kind of sad cry similar to the howling of the wolf.
With the cry, and in full view of the public, Du Wei’s skin began to crack, exactly like the words “skin cut open and flesh torn”. At the same moment, the soldiers below practicing paused in their movements. They had never heard such a terrible cry and could not believe it was coming from a human being.
Wincing, Jing Donghua looked at all the changes that happened to Du Wei before his eyes. He ordered the general beside him calmly, “Ask the practice below to continue. No big issue here.” While saying, he went close to Du Wei, who had already had many bloody cracks.
Jing Donghua was calm. After all, he was the emperor of a country. It was true that he had been surprised and excited by the sudden discovery of this b*ast*rd son, but this excitement lasted only for a short time, and then reason had taken over his mind again. Indeed, this time he had brought Du Wei with him in order to ascertain his true identity.
“How could it be?” Watching Du Wei slowly emerged from a complete human skin like a cicada slough, Jing Yuanxiao was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. He did not care whether he looked brave at this time, holding Qin Yunuan’s arm and refusing to let it go.
The wind on the wall was very strong, blowing the flag fluttering everywhere. It also blew the clothes of all the people, blew Qin Yunuan’s hair scattering down, and blew the hearts of everyone present.
Jing Donghua approached slowly. He almost watched Du Wei crack to death. After the skin on Du Wei’s face faded, the face covered with wounds that showed up had already proved everything.
Du Wei’s original face was almost completely different from the previous one. Indeed, Qin Linfeng’s appearance much resembled Qin Zhi, deep, stuffy, and a little thin, which was quite different from Jing Donghua’s quality of generosity, decisiveness, and elegance.
“Yunzhuang!” This was the last word shouted by Du Wei, or Qin Linfeng at last.
As soon as the word was finished, Qin Linfeng’s head slanted, dying completely. This time, Qin Yunuan would not worry that Qin Linfeng did not die actually. This medicine was made by Qin Yunuan herself, so he was sure to die.
Jing Donghua suppressed his anger. The wind on the wall became stronger and stronger. The distant clouds rolled towards them. It seemed to be brewing a heavy rain. The banner on the wall could not bear the huge wind and snapped broken all of a sudden.
Almost at the same moment, a loud slap rang out across the air.
It was Jing Donghua who gave Jing Yuanchu a snap on the face.
Jing Yuanchu had always been the pride of Jing Donghua and his good helper in politics.
“Look what you’ve done,” Jing Donghua pointed to Du Wei, who was bloody, already showing his original appearance, “You found this person. Now, how do you explain?”
At first, Jing Yuanchu did not hurry to explain but quickly kneeled down on the ground, “Father, it is my fault. It is me who did not carefully check the identity of this person. It is me. It is me…”
“My thirteenth son,” Jing Donghua interrupted Jing Yuanchu’s self-criticism, “Do you really think I’m getting old? That you are free to cheat me? How did you swear in the palace that this man was my long-lost child for sure, because he had almost the same appearance as I did, and even had the same birthmark as mine and that this was the union of father and son? What happened now? The birthmark is false. The face is false. The whole skin is false.”
“Father, it’s my fault. No matter how you deal with me, I’ll have no complaint,” Jing Yuanchu was begging Jing Donghua’s forgiveness in one of the humblest positions.
Qin Yunuan watched with cold eyes that Jing Yuanchu fawned like a drowning dog. Du Wei was once his most advantageous tool, but now it was also destroyed by her.
Jing Yuanxiao could not bear it, still wanting to come forward and plead for Jing Yuanchu, but was pulled tightly by Qin Yunuan.
“My brother is poor,” Jing Yuanxiao was always so innocent.
“Now His Majesty is in a state of anger. If you try to persuade him or beg for mercy, it will be a thankless task. Maybe your action will only make him angrier and punish more severely.” Qin Yunuan persuaded Jing Yuanxiao. She actually didn’t want the honest and kind man to find trouble for himself.
Jing Yuanchu’s plea for mercy seemed to make Jing Donghua relaxed again.
“Father, I’m also cheated. Please believe me this time,” This is the core meaning of Jing Yuanchu.
“Your Royal Highness, are you sure that you have been deceived too? I have a witness,” Qin Yunuan said suddenly. Accompanied by the sound of the wind, her words scattered in the air, seemingly powerless, but stabbing into the heart of Jing Yuanchu like small knives.
“Take Granny Yu.”
