Chapter 1030 The Prince's Thoughts on Yellow Thorn Fruit
The high priest looked at Ning Chen and explained: "This is ice cold grass, the medicinal properties are cold, you will feel a little uncomfortable after eating it, just bear with it..."
The high priest was stunned before he finished speaking, and his voice stopped abruptly.
Because Ning Chen had already thrown the ice cold grass into his mouth, chewed it a few times and swallowed it.
The high priest said in surprise: "You eat it now? Aren't you afraid that it is poisonous grass?"
Ning Chen glanced at her, this woman didn't seem to be very smart.
The high priest was from the Yuliu tribe. If she dared to kill him, not to mention her own life, the entire Yuliu tribe would have to be buried with her.
Suddenly, Ning Chen trembled.
He felt a cold air bursting out in his body, as if his blood was frozen, and he shivered with cold.
The high priest said: "Please expose your chest, Your Majesty."
Ning Chen was stunned for a moment, but he didn't fear medical treatment. He opened his clothes and showed his strong chest muscles.
The high priest took out a white porcelain bottle from the small cloth bag beside her, and then poured some red liquid from it and smeared it on Ning Chen's chest.
It was blood, Ning Chen smelled the blood.
The high priest asked: "Do you feel it?"
Ning Chen subconsciously asked back: "What feeling?"
The high priest said: "That means no feeling."
As he said that, he wiped the blood off Ning Chen's chest, and then said: "Now trouble the prince to run two laps in the yard."
"Hmm?"
The high priest explained: "You just ate the ice grass, and now there is a chill in your blood. Running a few laps can drive away the chill... But don't worry, this ice grass does not harm the body, but is good for it."
Ning Chen said, went outside, and practiced swordsmanship until he could no longer feel the chill in his body.
The high priest said: "Please trouble the prince to show your chest again."
Ning Chen pulled up his clothes and exposed his chest... At the same time, he subconsciously glanced at the high priest's chest, thinking that it looked quite large.
Of course, Ning Chen only dared to play a little joke in his heart.
He didn't dare to say it out loud.
The Yin-Yang Gu still depends on the high priest, so he can't offend him.
Just like before, the high priest poured blood from the small white porcelain bottle and smeared it on Ning Chen's chest.
At first, he didn't feel anything.
But suddenly, he felt like his heart was being cut by a knife, and Ning Chen groaned in pain, his face full of pain, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
The high priest quickly wiped the blood off Ning Chen's chest.
In just a few breaths, Ning Chen didn't feel so painful anymore.
The high priest looked at Ning Chen and said, "Now it is certain that it is the Yin-Yang Gu."
Ning Chen thought for a moment and said, "The blood you just smeared on my chest is tiger blood, right?"
The high priest was a little surprised, "How do you know?"
"I have a tiger. Every time I get close to it before, I feel like my heart is being torn by a knife."
"You actually have a tiger, that's amazing..." The high priest continued to explain, "The tiger is the king of beasts, the strongest and the most yang. You have the Yin Gu, which is afraid of the tiger's breath.
So, when you get close to the tiger, the Yin Gu will be restless because of fear, causing you, the prince, to feel like your heart is being torn by a knife and to suffer unbearably."
"So that's it!" Ning Chen asked curiously, "High priest, what is the effect of this Yin-Yang Gu? The person who put the Gu on me doesn't look like she wants my life, so I can't understand her purpose?"
Just as the high priest was about to explain, the empress came in with a group of people.
When the empress came to the Qingwang Mansion, she always went out of the palace incognito, so she didn't pass on the message.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Prince Qing, the High Priest and others hurriedly saluted.
The Queen waved her hand and looked at the High Priest, "How is Ning Chen?"
The High Priest told the general situation!
The Queen said in a deep voice: "What is the purpose of the person who put the poison?"
The High Priest said: "Your Majesty, the purpose of the person who put the poison was not to harm the prince, but to harm the people around the prince... To be precise, to harm the prince's woman."
Ning Chen and others changed their faces.
Ning Chen asked hurriedly, "What do you mean?"
The high priest said, "It seems that the prince is not as lustful as the rumors say."
Ning Chen's mouth twitched, "Ahem, ahem... Who spread this rumor? This prince is not a lustful person... Wait, is there any connection between the two?"
The high priest smiled and said, "I understand. The prince's heart is like a yellow thorn fruit."
"What is it?"
"A kind of fruit that grows on tall trees, grows very large, has a hard and thorny surface, and will crack when ripe. The flesh inside smells bad and tastes very fragrant."
Ning Chen was stunned. Why does this sound like durian?
He asked curiously, "Why did the high priest say that this prince's heart is like a yellow thorn fruit?"
The high priest said seriously, "Because the prince's heart is hard and has many thorns, he can put so many women on the tip of his heart."
Ning Chen was numb all over, his face twitched...Does this woman have a grudge against him?
"High Priest, have I ever offended you?"
The High Priest shook his head, "No!"
"Then why are you playing tricks on me?"
The High Priest looked innocent, "No, I was praising the Prince."
Ning Chen: "......."
He stared at the High Priest, her eyes were as clear as a stream, to put it bluntly, it was clear stupidity, it didn't seem like she was lying at all.
Ning Chen pulled the corner of his mouth, "Thank you for praising me, thank you for your whole family!"
The High Priest said, "Your Highness, you're welcome!"
Ning Chen's forehead was black.
He changed the subject and asked, "The high priest just said that I am not a lustful person. Does this have anything to do with the Yin-Yang Gu in my body?"
The high priest's expression became serious and said, "Of course, if the prince is a lustful person, then someone should be dead now.
Because the prince is infected with Yin Gu, and men are Yang, especially the prince has strong blood and qi, which is not favored by Yin Gu... Women are Yin, so Yin Gu prefers women.
But women are Yin, and they can't bear the power of Yin Gu at all. If they have sex with the prince, they will definitely die."
Ning Chen, Xiao Yanxi, and the empress all changed their faces.
Ning Chen's face was full of lingering fear, and sweat broke out on his back.
In this way, if he hadn't restrained himself and didn't touch Xiao Yanxi after being infected with the Gu, and didn't touch the empress last night, the consequences would be unimaginable.
No wonder the high priest said that he was not a lustful person. It seems that he was really praising him.
If he was lustful, I'm afraid Xiao Yanxi would have died now.
Ning Chen's face was livid, and he was thinking who was so vicious?
Why did the other party want to harm his woman?
Was the other party coming for Xiao Yanxi?
But when Ning Chen's eyes fell on the empress, his eyes suddenly shrank sharply.
"High Priest, I am poisoned by the Yin Gu. If I have sex with a woman, will it kill her immediately?"
The high priest shook his head, "No, if a woman is infected with the Yin Gu, she will be weak at first, then she will be seriously ill, and finally she will die... This process takes about one to three months, depending on the individual's physical condition."
Ning Chen's eyes were sharp, and murderous intent surged between his eyebrows. He said word by word: "I'm afraid the person who poisoned the woman is coming for the empress."
