The Villain's Heart Black Moonlight

Chapter 71: The ruthless official x the delicate princess (29)

If Cen Jinchao reacted in time and raised his hand to kill, this should be expected by everyone, but Chi Chu directly stabbed the killer on the opposite side...

Not to mention General Lu and others, there are also the killers who faced Chi Chu.

Even Ning Hekun, who should have been prepared after being reminded many times before, showed a look of shock at this moment.

The steps moved backwards uncontrollably.

Cen Jinzhao's movements seemed to pause for a moment, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good."

He just said these three words softly.

It was also at this time that some of the previous doubts about Chi Chu were explained. There was actually a reason why his people could not find out that Chi Chu had left the palace.

The first thought that came to Cen Jinzhao's mind was not fear... but peace of mind.

He thought that the other party was obviously able to protect herself, so he didn't have to worry so much about whether she would get hurt.

While everyone was stunned, Chi Chu's hands were not idle either.

She didn't really like those aggressive moves. To put it bluntly, Chi Chu had basically no moves at all. It was as if the bodies of those killers were out of her control and they kept crashing into the sword she raised.

The movements were random, like a carefully choreographed puppet show.

The actions of everyone on the field were just as she had expected.

This scene is a bit weird.

The people who came with the prince were inevitably a little restrained.

Originally, Cen Jinchao's martial arts was the best among them, and it was already difficult enough for them to deal with each other, but who could have thought that the Sixth Princess would suddenly attack, and was extremely powerful!

Everyone began to feel a little bit of retreat in their hearts.

Ning Hekun suddenly realized the situation and felt a surge of regret in his heart.

Someone had clearly reminded him before, but he didn't care at all, and didn't even take Chi Chu seriously!

"Ning Chichu..."

Ning Hekun spoke in a low voice, gritting his teeth and reading out Chi Chu's name.

The battlefield was extremely noisy, and these three words, which sounded like a murmur, should not have aroused any reaction from anyone.

However, Chi Chu on the opposite side seemed to have heard something. He turned around and looked at him from a distance, with a hint of an extremely gentle smile in his eyes.

"You didn't let me go."

He saw Chi Chu's mouth open, and he seemed to say these words.

Ning Hekun: “…”

The feeling of unwillingness in his heart reached its peak at this moment.

Yes, it was he who asked Chi Chu to stay.

Even if he had not listened to Tang Qingyuan and taken the initiative to get rid of Chi Chu, things would never have developed into the current situation if he had not wanted Chi Chu to stay and restrain Cen Jinchao!

Ning Hekun almost bit his teeth to pieces and clenched his fists tightly.

"retreat!"

After about half a minute, he shouted coldly.

At this time, the killers were already dead or injured, lying on the ground.

Seventeen or eighteen people plus a few of them were completely defeated when facing Cen Jinzhao and his three companions.

Only four or five were still struggling to survive.

Ning Hekun had no intention of continuing. After giving the order, he simply raised his whip and left.

He was still fearless. It was obvious that he had done it. As long as no third party saw it, he was not afraid of Cen Jinchao impeaching him.

Chi Chu did not stop him, but the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

The battle goes as quickly as it comes.

Apart from the minor injuries suffered by Cen Jinzhao at the beginning, there were no other problems afterwards.

Although everyone around him had left, Cen Jinzhao still subconsciously stood in front of Chi Chu, his attitude more inclined to protect him, but his eyes were still silently searching for something.

"My Lord, Your Highness, are you two okay?" Eleven came over quickly, his tone slightly anxious, "The blade is poisonous!"

"Ok?"

Chi Chu's eyes turned and he subconsciously looked at the slit collar of Cen Jinzhao's clothes.

"..."

Cen Jinzhao remained silent, and a faint pain began to come from his chest.

But he didn't respond immediately.

"Sir, are you injured?"

Eleven also noticed Cen Jinchao's condition. He took out medicine from the lining he carried with him: "I have medicine here. The poisonous blood must be dealt with as soon as possible."

Eleven took out the things and started to prepare them busily, but halfway through, he finally realized that something seemed to be wrong.

In the past, Cen Jinzhao would always ask him to apply the medicine quickly with a blank expression. He never really cared about these things, and everything was based on efficiency. But today, Cen Jinzhao...

Not only were his movements slow, but his eyes also kept looking in one direction from time to time.

That direction is exactly where the princess is.

eleven:"……"

At that moment, he suddenly had an idea, looked at Chi Chu, and said in a serious tone:

"However... I still need to go to the area to check if there are any traps left by the Crown Prince. I may need your help in applying medicine and dealing with the poisonous blood."

Chi Chu was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Then I'll do it."

"Yes. Thank you for your help, Princess."

Eleven nodded, pretending not to notice his master's sudden relaxation.

This was not the first time that Chi Chu had applied medicine.

After a while, she got used to it.

Cen Jinzhao was very obedient under her command. He would raise his hands when told to and take off his clothes when told to. He did not have the airs of a powerful official at all.

The wound on his chest was not serious. It was probably located near the ribs and only scratched the flesh. It was nothing compared to the last time.

But the blood near the wound was faintly black, probably because of poisoning.

This wound is not difficult to treat. You just need to squeeze out the poisonous blood and then bandage it as you did last time.

However, no matter whether it was bandaging or squeezing out the poisonous blood, physical contact was inevitable in the process. Feeling the girl's soft little hands moving gently on his body, Cen Jinzhao exhaled a breath where Chi Chu couldn't see.

Who can say this is not a torture?

Chi Chu seemed to want to share his pain. While bandaging the wound, he chatted with him in a gentle voice: "Lord Prime Minister Cen, something just fell out of your lapel... I saw you seemed to be looking for it."

Cen Jinzhao: "..."

His body stiffened slightly.

"I've already picked it up, but it looks familiar to me...it seems to be..."

The little girl asked curiously, but before she could finish her words, she was interrupted almost rudely by Cen Jinzhao.

"I'm in a bit of pain."

His words came out of nowhere, and the content of his words didn't sound like something he would say.

After all, the last time Chi Chu applied medicine to him, he said nothing as if he didn't feel any pain, but this time... it was obviously not as serious as last time, but he was already crying out in pain.

Don't make it too obvious that you're changing the subject.

"Ah, sorry." Chi Chu obediently let the topic change, and she lightened her movements. She said with some embarrassment: "But if it's not serious, it's very likely that the poisonous blood won't be squeezed out completely."

"It's nothing, just be careful not to get any poisonous blood on you."

Cen Jinzhao said calmly.

But if you look closely, you will find that the bases of his ears have begun to turn slightly red.

After the poisonous blood from the wound was treated, Chi Chu asked Cen Jinzhao to take off his entire shirt so that it would be easier to bandage the wound.

Cen Jinzhao paused for a moment, and finally completely unbuttoned his black undergarment.

His healthy skin was exposed and he had a great body, a perfect representation of the broad shoulders and narrow hips, with evenly distributed muscles and some scars on his body. Of course, the most attractive thing was not the scars but the totem on his back.

Yes, there is a circle of black tattoo totems from Cen Jinzhao’s back butterfly bones to his upper arms.

The totem seemed to be a painting of some kind of wild beast, entwined around the young man's body. The sharp contrast gave people a sense of beauty that was almost weird.

Chi Chu was stunned for a moment, and continued to wrap the gauze around his hand, as if he didn't see the totem.

She didn't ask, but Cen Jinzhao took the initiative to speak.

"This is the totem of my clan. I am not from the Ning Dynasty."

"Well...I remember that Prime Minister Cen, you are the son of the previous generation Prime Minister Cen?" Chi Chu stopped what he was doing.

She hasn't asked Bobo about the villain yet. She only knows that the other party seems to have a grudge against the royal family, but she is not sure what the grudge is.

"Yes, but he is an adopted son."

Cen Jinzhao lowered his eyes indifferently.

That old Prime Minister Cen was not a good person. He adopted a son to train loyal soldiers and staff to consolidate his position. At the same time, he also liked to adopt good-looking ones...

Use it as a tool for "interpersonal communication" in the future.

However, Prime Minister Cen never expected that one day he would be betrayed by his adopted son.

To be precise, the other party cut off the source of the trouble, launched a rebellion, directly replaced his position, and became the new Prime Minister Cen in the identity of his son.

Cen Jinchao's rise to power was not glorious.

After all, according to current morality, no matter what Prime Minister Cen's purpose was in adopting them, he did raise them after all. This practice of taking power in the opposite way is actually a bit immoral.

But for Cen Jinzhao, morality and the like are not that important.

He said this and closed his eyes gently.

"I come from a small tribe called Xiyue, which was exterminated by Emperor Kang more than ten years ago."

What he said was simple and clear, but these few words contained endless pain and blood.

"I am the only one of my group who survived."

"The reason for our extermination was not because of a conflict between us and the Ning Dynasty... The winners are the kings and the losers are the bandits. If that were the case, I would accept it. Unfortunately, the reason for our extermination was simply because our area was rich in the green Ying stone that was popular in the Ning Dynasty at that time. Because they were unwilling to obtain it through trading, they killed all three thousand people in our tribe for those stones."

The man's voice was unusually calm from beginning to end, so calm that it seemed as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

"you……"

Chi Chu spoke hesitantly.

Cen Jinzhao was mentally prepared.

His revealing of his identity at this time was actually a desperate test.

This was an absolute secret that should not be known to anyone, but facing Chi Chu, he seemed unable to hide it.

After all, his goal from the beginning to the end was to kill Emperor Kang and avenge his people.

But the funny thing is that he fell in love with Conti's daughter.

Cen Jinzhao laughed at himself. No matter whether Chi Chu could accept his identity or not, no matter where the two of them would end up, at least he was being frank at this moment...

He never regretted it.

Although the man thought so in his heart, his body's reaction was quite honest.

The muscles on his back were completely tense, giving him an expectant yet nervous look.

"How did you escape at that time? Were these wounds also left at that time...Does it hurt?"

Chi Chu reached out and touched a scar on his back that looked very old, and asked softly.

The girl's voice was so gentle that Cen Jinzhao couldn't believe it. He even prepared for Chi Chu to question him and stay away from him and fear him, but he didn't expect her to just ask gently -

Does it hurt?

Of course it hurts, but after so many years, he has long forgotten the pain.

“It didn’t hurt. I wasn’t with the tribe at the time. I just ran into soldiers who were killing people on my way back… They slashed me with a knife. I was still a child at the time, so I pretended to be dead and escaped.”

Cen Jinzhao replied, saying it very simply, but it could hardly conceal the danger.

"So your purpose is revenge?"

Chi Chu tilted his head and asked.

At this time, she had basically bandaged the wound, and the totem on her back was partially covered by gauze.

"Yes." Cen Jinzhao was silent for a moment and replied.

Before he met Chi Chu, he had never thought about his future, nor about what to do in the future. His only goal was revenge.

Just like his name, only for today.

But now... he is even more greedy and can't help but want to have more.

He even began to think about where he would take Chi Chu after his revenge... Of course, he also thought that Chi Chu might not want to follow him, so he might obediently stay away from him, or just watch him from afar.

"Oh." Chi Chu nodded thoughtfully.

She said she understood it very well. Anyone whose clan was exterminated would want revenge, right?

But come to think of it... she remembered that Yan Feng in the previous world seemed to be the same. Are all villains so miserable?

I always feel like there's something wrong.

The thought flashed through her mind.

"Don't you have anything else you want to ask?"

Cen Jinzhao waited for a long time, but did not hear the second half of Chi Chu's words. He frowned slightly and asked.

Chi Chu's reaction was far beyond his expectations, but that was also why he felt it was a little unreal.

"Indeed, there are." The little girl thought for a moment and suddenly looked at him. "I actually came across the Xiyue tribe when I was reading a book before. I heard that you all practice monogamy there, and you attach great importance to the exchange of tokens."

“…That’s right.”

Cen Jinzhao nodded without understanding why.

"But... can the rice dumpling leaf also be considered a token of love? Why do you want to carry it with you? If you like, I can give you something else."

The little girl's voice was soft, and she was genuinely curious.

But her words made Cen Jinzhao's mind seem to explode.

There was no need to bow his head, Cen Jinzhao knew that his ears were starting to feel hot.

He opened his mouth and took a breath.

"You are mistaken. That is not a zong leaf. It is just a leaf that looks like a zong leaf."

Lord Prime Minister Cen lied in all seriousness.

"But..." the little girl said hesitantly.

"But there are still traces of my fingernails scratching it accidentally. This should be the zongzi I gave you, right?"
