C134 Let Go
Jiegeng was shocked and immediately took a few steps back.
Looking at the remains of the teacup in Duan Shuang's hand and forgetting about Duan Shuang's pair of eyes that were close to blood red, Jiegeng suddenly felt that she did not understand Duan Shuang at all.
"You are not joking, right?" Jiegeng's voice was a little shaky. In her memory, this fierce look had never been shown to other women.
"This game is not fun. You are not allowed to do this." Jiegeng immediately reached out her hand and brushed off the remaining pieces in his hand. She held Duan Shuang's hand tightly.
"I should not have gotten angry. Don't be angry." Jiegeng's eyes were filled with tears, but she held it in and did not let them flow down.
"You were clearly not like this a few days ago. You acted like this!" Jiegeng's grip on Duan Shuang became tighter and tighter, as if she had used up all her strength.
Jiegeng looked up and her eyes were full of tears. She looked even more pitiful.
Looking at Jiegeng looking into his hopeful eyes, Duan Shuang's heart hurt even more. At this moment, he wanted to directly embrace Jiegeng and tell her honestly that all of this was not true.
But the only remaining reason suppressed this impulse.
Duan Shuang suddenly shook off Jiegeng's hand and was unable to say a word as he left the hall.
After Duan Shuang left, Jiegeng finally could not suppress the grievance and grief in the depths of her heart and started to cry loudly.
After leaving, Duan Shuang heard Jiegeng crying and could not help but stop for a moment before leaving with heavy steps.
"Duan Shuang, you bastard!" Jiegeng cried miserably and did not forget to curse.
If it was in the past, anyone who dared to behave atrociously in Zhen'an King's Mansion would have been suppressed by the Prefecture's soldiers. But now, not to mention the Prefecture's soldiers, even Anzhao didn't dare to interrupt Jiegeng's crying and cursing.
Jiegeng silently cried for a long time in the mansion until her eyes were swollen like walnuts. Only then did she leave the mansion.
"Anzhao, send someone to send her back in a carriage. Don't let anyone say anything!" Duan Shuang's back leaned against the window and immediately gave the order.
"Yes, sir."
Duan Shuang stood alone in front of the window. The conversation between Bai Qing and him that day rang in his ears again.
"When the rebellion that year, did you get poisoned by a rebel arrow for the Emperor?"
"Yes."
"Then you should know the specific effects of that poison, right? "
"Of course I know." Duan Shuang smiled, and there was a hint of viciousness in his smile.
"Simply put, it is to cut off all children and grandchildren."
Bai Qing walked around the desk and walked in front of Duan Shuang. "That's right. That was the effect of this poison. Back then, this poison came for the Emperor but he did not think that it would land on you."
Duan Shuang had a calm expression," So what? Many years ago, Ghost Doctor helped me cure this poison. "
Bai Qing snorted coldly, "Don't you find it strange that I know this so well?"
Duan Shuang's pupils quickly widened, "Could it be that this poison is also like this?"
"It's not considered stupid." Bai Qing nodded, "This poison is the same as the plague back then. It was accidentally spread out."
Bai Qing stopped and continued, "Do you think this old man's tricks are enough to cure you of the poison?"
Before Duan Shuang could recover from his shock, Bai Qing placed three fingers on Duan Shuang's inch.
"As I expected." Bai Qing quickly retracted his hand.
"Please tell me what the problem is."
"How can that old man's medical skills break my family's ability? Although he solved the problem of having no children and grandchildren, it brought you a bigger problem, right?"
Veins near Duan Shuang's temples immediately began to pop up.
"Please speak clearly, imperial physician."
"You can't reach ten points every time you activate your inner energy, right? If you use too much inner energy, the inner energy in your body will start to backfire."
Duan Shuang's fatal weakness was seen through in an instant. He could not help but clench his fists.
Of course, Bai Qing noticed the changes in Duan Shuang. However, he did not have any concerns and continued.
"This weakness, I'm afraid it only exists after the old ghost detoxifies you."
When Duan Shuang heard this, all the tension that he had felt just now disappeared without a trace.
"Just as imperial physician said."
Duan Shuang's eyes regained their rationality and became clear again. "But I don't understand. What does this have to do with me and Jiegeng being together?"
"The key is here. The old man's martial arts skills were not at home, but he made a fool of himself. Although he used the poison formula to break the poison, it was precisely because of this that... It caused a new type of poison to take root in your body. This poison can be considered to be untreatable. "
" I believe you already know that Jiegeng's body can cure hundreds of poisons. This characteristic of Jiegeng just happens to be able to cure the hidden poison in your body."
Duan Shuang did not ask any more questions and waited for Bai Qing to explain.
" But this poison of yours is too overbearing. If you want to neutralize it, you will exhaust the blood essence of the one who provided it and die. In other words, regardless of whether you are willing or not, the night of your wedding with Jiegeng will be the day Jiegeng dies in the underworld! "
" Why would imperial physician make up such a lie to prevent this from happening? " Obviously, Duan Shuang was unwilling to believe this matter.
Bai Qing's back was facing him. "Everything has its own destiny. I was so against it because I treasured my granddaughter's life. If you are sincere to Jiegeng, you should not have killed her! "
" Imperial physician, you can't joke around now! " Duan Shuang could not control his emotions.
"You can go. Don't let your stupidity kill Jiegeng! If that day really comes, even if I have to sacrifice my life, I will use your life as a sacrifice!"
When he thought back to the present, Duan Shuang's eyes became even more turbid.
On the same day, after learning about this news, Duan Shuang immediately called Ouyang Lingfeng over.
"It's hard to tell whether what imperial physician said is true or not. However, since he can easily see through your current weakness, I don't think there's any need for him to lie to you."
Initially, they had hoped to receive a reverse response, but now, they were greatly disappointed.
"Come to think of it, it really is a creation who makes fools of people. Back in City L, if it wasn't for the fact that you wanted to lure those people from Qi Country into your trap, you wouldn't have suffered from the backlash of your inner energy, causing you to fall into a cliff. And you wouldn't have been rescued by Jiegeng by accident. It seems that the two of you are destined to be tied together. " Ouyang Lingfeng recalled the past and could not help but sigh.
"Are the two of us really tied together? Either you live or I die, or we are forced to separate." Duan Shuang's words were filled with hatred.
After Ouyang Lingfeng heard this, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion. "Previously, I thought that your relationship would be smooth sailing. But now, it seems like this is all you've got."
As his memories faded, Duan Shuang stood alone in front of the window for a long time.
Since he had already taken this step, he might as well make up his mind. Rather than letting Jiegeng and I sigh about the ruthlessness of fate, it would be better to let her hate me and let her find a better fate.
