Chapter 81 Sequelae

The guess just now seems to be gradually becoming a reality - something happened to Ying Gong.

Maybe there is no worries about life, but it is definitely not convenient to show up.

Maybe seriously injured?

Li Zhen thought for a while, then took a few steps back, wiped his face with the towel that Beichuan handed him, and then whispered: "Your Majesty Ying may have something wrong. That's why the northern base is so passive."

But unlike him, Kitagawa Harumaki didn't seem so enthusiastic about the news. She let out a oh and stepped back - after all, this kind of thing was not "the person from the Gate of Truth has been killed" and that was more direct and urgent. So she put the food on the dining table and whispered: "What about then?"

She doesn't seem to know much about this, but Li Zhen doesn't know much, but it's slightly better than her.

He wiped his face hard to make himself more awake, and then pondered: "I don't know. But... it seems like I can breathe a little relieved. If something happened to Ying Gong, then the current situation is an emergency. In Yanjing—"

He glanced at Beichuan and continued, "At that time, the crown prince met Dai Bingcheng and me on the road."

Kitagawa Harumaki raised his head in surprise: "Crown Prince? By the way, when it comes to the crown prince, it's so strange that he has never seen him much."

"Maybe the royal family has their own plans. The emperor hasn't been on camera anyway." Li Zhen smiled, "The prince has a good attitude towards Dai Bingcheng - I think the relationship is good. The general seems to be on his side. It can be seen that the power behind the northern base is still very strong. Maybe this time I was just caught off guard and I will slowly turn the tables in the future. In the past, we thought things a little serious."

Beichuan arranged the two people's bowls and chopsticks, tied his long hair into a ponytail to prepare for dinner, and asked again: "But... the emperor is just a symbol of the country after all. It's still nominal."

Li Zhen smiled slightly: "You are trapped in inertial thinking. You think, we always say that the empire is now controlled by aristocratic families, and that the mixed forces they have accumulated over a hundred years are difficult to eliminate - so who was the largest aristocrat in this country before the constitution was established?"

Kitagawa Harumaki was slightly stunned, then gently pounded his forehead: "Yes... the emperor's house!"

"Yes." Li Zhen walked upstairs to change his clothes, then walked downstairs, "so their family's influence must be quite huge."

But Kitagawa Qingming knocked the edge of the bowl thoughtfully with chopsticks, and suddenly frowned: "That's wrong... You said Dai Bingcheng and Ying Gong were both reformists, saying that they wanted to weaken the power of the noble families. The prince... and the emperor and the others..."

"As long as it is still the empire, no one can touch the Zhu family. No matter how they fight - whether they are weakened or maintain the status quo, the emperor or the emperor. Even if the aristocratic family is weakened, the Zhu family can still share some power. How do you choose? Besides, it is just the crown prince." Li Zhen said as he walked, "The emperor's attitude...who knows. And you only know that I told you these things, but others don't know."

Kitagawa Qingming nodded: "Well... it seems to make sense."

"I'm just guessing nonsense." Li Zhen smiled embarrassedly. He knew more or less, but he was really guessing nonsense himself - who knows what abacus behind those who have become eloquents?

He walked around behind Kitakawa and planned to sit on the other side of the table to have a meal.

The guess in my heart just now was confirmed, but now Li Zhen breathed a sigh of relief - it seemed that Mr. Ying was not dead yet. This is a good thing.

It's raining heavily outside now, but they can hide in a warm and comfortable house to enjoy dinner without having to worry about being afraid of an isolated island like they did the previous few days. It was a really wonderful night.

However, at this moment, Kitagawa Kyuki was suddenly stunned.

Then, the chopsticks in his hand fell on the table, making two crisp sounds.

The next moment... my body fell straight backwards.

Li Zhen reached out and caught her. When a person lost consciousness, his muscles could not move, so his entire weight was pressed on Li Zhen's arms. He bent subconsciously, stepped back slightly, and hugged her in his arms.

Then she saw two red blobs on her cheeks, her lips were bright and as if she was about to bleeding. Her eyes were slightly closed, her eyelashes trembled slightly... She seemed to be enduring some torture.

Things happened without warning.

Li Zhen was shocked and lie on the ground, putting her hand on her neck.

My heartbeats very fast and my body temperature is very high.

I have never heard her say that she is feeling uncomfortable before... What's going on?

He called her twice.

Kitagawa Haraki's eyelashes trembled slightly and he opened his eyes again.

Li Zhen immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He thought... it was another Kitagawa Seiyaki who woke up.

But things were not what he thought. The first sentence after Kitagawa opened his eyes was-

"The head... hurts so much."

This tone seems impossible to be the king of ice, snow and wind.

Li Zhen tried to help her up slowly and asked uneasily: "What's wrong? Where did it hurt? When did it start?"

Kitakawa stood up with his hand, sat on the chair, pressing his forehead with his hands: "I fainted just now? I don't know - it seems that someone suddenly pierced my head... I'm fine today..."

Li Zhen leaned over and looked at her for a while. Suddenly, the floor crossed her face without saying a word and leaned over.

Kitagawa Harumaki was shocked and a flame suddenly rose on his face: "...what are you doing?"

But Li Zhen whispered: "Don't move. I'll look at your eyes."

Then he reached out to spread Kitagawa Haraki's eyelids.

The little misunderstanding just now almost made her lose her strength. It was not until the other party carefully checked and took two steps back that she calmed down slightly. But she still asked in shame: "What are you looking at?"

However, Li Zhen didn't care about her tone. Instead, he turned around and walked a few more steps before looking at her with a serious expression: "Didn't I tell you that you drank my blood on the island."

"It was her drink." Kitagawa Haruaki said. But she realized that it was meaningless to be entangled with this problem at the moment - the two of them always share the same body.

Li Zhen looked at her, hesitated for a long time, and then said, "Ying Jueran... I also have my blood in my body. But there may be something wrong with him. Maybe, he couldn't suppress it..."

Kitakawa looked at him blankly. After a while, he whispered: "You mean..."

"I thought it would be fine. God." Li Zhen felt a little headache, and felt that he could not face the gaze of Kitagawa Kyuki in front of him. But he had to continue saying, "I just put the blood into Ying Jue Ran's wound and saved him. But on the island, you...she drank it in. At that time, I didn't know that Ying Jue Ran had a problem, and I felt that with the power of the Ice King, it should be nothing serious. I also felt that... I had to go through the digestive system, and it was just blood after all, and maybe it would be digested and absorbed. But..."

"...I suspect, it's just something wrong with my blood."

The blush on Kitagawa's face gradually faded. She looked at Li Zhen for a while and whispered: "Will I become what you used to be? Loss of reason?"

There was no expression on her face. But this made Li Zhen even more uneasy. He forced a grin: "I just looked at you, but it didn't turn yellow. But..."

"Or it's not what you thought? Maybe I'm sick?"

Li Zhen pursed her lips: "Have you felt anything else lately? Where did you hurt or where did you feel numb?"

Kitakawa lowered his head and thought for a while, and slowly said, "The hands hurt. The wrist hurts."

"Is there anything else?"

"Sometimes I feel like I suddenly have no strength and I want to vomit."

Li Zhen changed his face, took a few steps, and whispered: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

However, Kitagawa Harumaki suddenly stood up from the chair, stared at his eyes for several seconds, and turned around without saying a word.

Li Zhen opened her mouth, but still didn't call her.

Because he could understand the other party's sudden anger. In fact, this Kitanagawa Haraki has done a great job - no one else can do better than her.

After she got off the plane and stepped onto Japanese territory, everything was no longer under her control. Escape, isolated island, wanted, the Philippines... In fact, these things had nothing to do with her at all - they were all done by Li Zhen and that person. However, she was forced to accept such a mess after waking up, but she had no complaints from beginning to end.

Or in her heart, she felt that "dual personality" was her own problem and could not be blamed on others. However...

Li Zhen knew that when he fed another Beichuan blood on the isolated island, he had never asked for this person's opinion.

God... Such a complicated thing. He shook his head and sat on the chair weakly.

The food on the table was still steaming. However, he had no appetite at all. He just hoped that he had really made a mistake - it was Kitagawa Haraki who was sick.

But how could things happen like this? I was healthy a few days ago, but so many problems have happened in the past few days?

He sat alone for more than ten minutes, and had no courage to go upstairs and talk to her again. In the end, he had to put all the food into the refrigerator and then to the kitchen - but Kitagawa Harumaki cleaned it up as usual, so he had no idea.

More than an hour later, he walked upstairs gently, knocked twice when passing by Beichuan's room door, and whispered: "I... am asleep. If you feel uncomfortable, remember to call me."

"Yeah." A low voice from the door responded.

Li Zhen thought about it and returned to his room.

The rain outside was still raking underground, and the thunder came one by one. Li Zhen stared at the ceiling with his hands on his pillow, not knowing what to do - at least not knowing how to face her tomorrow. In the end, he sighed helplessly, hoping that the other person could appear soon - or that they two of them could find a solution.
