After I died, the scumbag prince cried down the city wall

The air in the room seemed to freeze, leaving only the dull echo of coughing up blood. Every time he spat out black blood, it seemed as if it was going to tear his heart and lungs out. Along with this painful process, the man's originally pale face gradually regained some color.

Cui Rong clasped her hands lightly across her chest, her calm gaze fixed on the man. She did not rush to act until a tiny black insect slowly crawled towards the man's fragile neck, then she lightly moved her lotus steps.

She closed her eyes slightly and flicked her fingertips. A warm and gentle internal force surged out from her palms, skillfully guiding the insect away from the man's body. She carefully put it into an exquisite white porcelain bottle and sealed it immediately.

After completing all this, she slowly stretched out her white wrist, gently placed it on the man's wrist, and took his pulse.

"Congratulations, OP. Thirty percent of the toxins in your body have been cleared. In just seven days, this specially made detoxifying insect will be able to help you completely get rid of the remaining toxins." Cui Rongrong's voice was gentle but firm, and her eyes met the man's.

The man tried hard to adjust his breathing. His body, which had been tortured by the poison for many years, now felt unprecedented relaxation and comfort. He looked at Cui Rong with gratitude.

"Thanks to you for saving me, otherwise I would never have recovered. I can't express my gratitude in words!"

"I acted rashly just now. I hope you will be magnanimous and forgive me." The man said sincerely.

Cui Rongrong smiled elegantly, "We are just helping each other, but before the next detoxification, you still need to take good care of your body, because as the toxins in your body decrease, the pain from the bites of the detoxification insects will become more severe."

Hearing this, the man nodded solemnly, "I will definitely keep your teachings in mind."

"May I ask your name, sir? My name is Jiang Zhen. If given the chance, I hope to become your bosom friend." Jiang Zhen's words were sincere. He knew very well that being able to meet such a person with superb medical skills would make his future path broader.

Cui Rongrong did not answer immediately, but smiled slightly, "After we help the host to completely detoxify, it won't be too late for us to talk about making friends."

When Jiang Zhen heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Given his status and position, there were many people who wanted to curry favor with him, but Cui Rongrong's calmness and indifference were truly rare.

He did not force it, but asked, "I heard that you are interested in buying intelligence. What kind of information do you want to buy?"

"I need to know the information of the border people who have sneaked into the capital recently." Cui Rongrong looked directly at Jiang Zhen with burning eyes, "I believe the host knows the whereabouts of this person very well."

Jiang Zhen pondered for a moment and spoke slowly, "The information you need is indeed beyond my expectations."

"To tell you the truth, this person is indeed under my surveillance. Young Master has given me a new life. If you need anything, I will do my best to help you. But this person must not act rashly."

Cui Rongrong narrowed her eyes slightly, and her tone was full of inquiry, "If we touch him alone, will it affect the whole situation?"

Jiang Zhen smiled slightly, looking confident, "Young Master is indeed smart and understands things immediately. If this person makes a mistake, it may cause unnecessary disturbances and hurt innocent people."

"The border forces are eyeing our dynasty covetously and are always looking for opportunities to invade the border. If anything goes wrong with the border people in the capital, it will play right into their hands." Cui Rongrong's tone revealed a hint of worry.

After listening to Jiang Zhen's words, she fell silent. It turned out that the meaning behind the existence of this spy was far more complicated than she had initially imagined.

She once again cast her gaze towards Jiang Zhen, "That's all you have to say, OP. I have a plan in mind, but there is still one thing I don't understand. When did the spy sneak into the capital?"

Jiang Zhen looked at her meaningfully, as if considering something. "He has been lurking in Beijing for many years. The apparent calmness is because he has been secretly collecting intelligence. Now, General Cui's return to Beijing has made it difficult for the border forces to control themselves, and the situation has become delicate."

"General Cui is extremely brave. If we can get rid of him, the threat to the border will undoubtedly be greatly reduced."

At this point, Jiang Zhen's tone revealed a barely perceptible hint of regret.

Cui Rong clenched her fists quietly, and a cold murderous intent flashed in her eyes.

In his previous life, his father Cui Min was assassinated many times. The assassins either had their tongues cut off or committed suicide by taking poison, and the truth has never been revealed.

After living a new life, she finally found clues about the mastermind behind the incident.

She collected her thoughts, raised her head and looked directly at Jiang Zhen, "It seems that the host knows everything about the Borderlanders' plan."

Jiang Zhen chuckled, appearing quite confident, "This is the foundation of my life. If I don't even know these, how can I gain a foothold in the world?"

Facing Cui Rongrong's silence, he continued, "Then please tell me the whereabouts of that person."

After saying that, she gently pushed a heavy silver bill in front of Jiang Zhen.

Jiang Zhen's eyes were fixed on Cui Rongrong, full of curiosity and inquiry: "I am increasingly curious about the young master's true identity. After all, this kind of thing is beyond the reach of ordinary people."

“Not to mention, as far as I know, even within the imperial court, there are only a handful of people who actually know that there are people from the border hidden in Kyoto.”

He looked at Cui Rong carefully, trying to catch even a clue from her every move. However, everything about her seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, making it difficult to see through.

Cui Rongrong's face was indifferent, but a barely perceptible sharpness flashed in her eyes. She opened her red lips and said, "I am just an insignificant little character. In such a vast world, my existence is like duckweed, not worth mentioning. Please tell me frankly, can we reach a consensus on this transaction today and make both parties happy?"

Jiang Zhen was silent for a moment, as if he was weighing something. Finally, he slowly stood up and walked out from behind the table, holding an exquisite wooden box in his hand, and gently placed it in front of Cui Rongrong.

The box exudes a faint fragrance.

"Inside is what you urgently need. That person is as cunning as a fox. In order to conceal his whereabouts, he hides everywhere. Even if you go there in person, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack. It will be difficult to get anything."

There was a hint of helplessness in his words, but it also seemed to have a deep meaning. "Therefore, these carefully collected intelligence may be nothing more than a few useless pieces of paper to you, sir, before they are verified."

When Cui Rong heard this, a meaningful smile appeared on her lips, but she did not answer.

She had a delicate mind and was now quickly calculating the interests behind all of this.

To her, the person himself may not be important; she cares more about the intricate network of relationships behind this person.

In the border areas, the forces are intertwined and undercurrents are surging. There must be ambitious people watching in secret.

In the imperial court, there are also many powerful people who urgently need the support of border forces in order to consolidate their position.
