Chapter 93 Ginseng Spirit Cannon Fodder 01

This is a sweet story, and the relationship between the hero and heroine is incredibly smooth.

The heroine Ye Baolian is the legitimate daughter of Prime Minister Ye, the hero Xiao Jingjian is the crown prince of the current dynasty, Ye's mother and the queen are close friends, and the emperor and Prime Minister Ye are also good brothers.

When the heroine was born, the four-year-old hero held her in his arms and decided at first sight that this baby was his future daughter-in-law.

The heroine has been very attached to the hero since she was a child, and has never thought of marrying anyone other than the hero. After the heroine came of age, the two got married and their married life was very happy.

Except for the fact that the heroine has always been in poor health, everything else is perfect.

However, their happy and fulfilling lives were bought with the blood of others, and such happiness was destined not to last.

-

The original owner's mother, Zhen Cuicui, was a ginseng spirit. She was once rescued by Prime Minister Ye, and she became completely devoted to Prime Minister Ye and even confessed her identity and functions.

After Prime Minister Ye successfully made Zhen Cuicui pregnant and gave birth to the original owner, he locked Zhen Cuicui in a secret room and cut her flesh and blood every day to make medicinal food for his white moonlight Fang Yinyin to treat the hereditary disease in Fang Yinyin's family.

Because of this disease, the average lifespan of women in their family does not exceed the age of twenty.

But it’s different after eating the flesh and blood of ginseng essence.

As long as Fang Yinyin eats it for ten consecutive years, she will be able to recover. But after ten years, Zhen Cuicui's already weak magic power will disappear, and she will turn back into a shriveled medicinal herb and die completely.

That medicinal herb is much more potent than the ordinary thousand-year-old ginseng.

Therefore, when the current emperor was poisoned and on the verge of life and death, it was Ye's father who donated the prototype of Zhen Cuicui in the name of donating a family heirloom and saved the emperor's life.

The original owner was the daughter of Zhen Cuicui, and the blood in her body had the ability to cure the Fang family's genetic blood disease. Therefore, Ye's father deliberately let Zhen Cuicui give birth to a child in preparation for a rainy day.

After Ye Baolian was born, the doctor diagnosed that she would not live beyond the age of 20.

So, when the original owner was two years old, she became Ye Baolian's exclusive medicinal material. She was locked up and bled and her flesh was cut from time to time.

Fang Yinyin and Xiao Jingjian knew everything that Prime Minister Ye had done to the original owner, but they didn't care at all. They felt that Zhen Cuicui and the original owner's mother and daughter should be grateful for being able to serve as medicinal materials for Fang Yinyin and Ye Baolian.

In fact, Prime Minister Ye originally wanted to use the same trick again, letting Ye Baolian eat medicinal food sparingly, and wait for the original owner to grow up and leave a child for Xiao Jingjian, and then kill her and turn her into medicinal material to squeeze out her last value.

Because Prime Minister Ye was worried that Ye Baolian and Xiao Jingjian’s child would also inherit the Fang family’s illness.

But Fang Yinyin disagreed, and the mature Xiao Jingjian also disagreed. He loved Ye Baolian so much that he was reluctant to let her have children. He planned to have several children with other women in the future, and all the children would be killed.

So, when the original owner was twelve years old and Ye Baolian was ten years old, Ye Baolian's illness was finally cured, and the original owner was about to die, just like Zhen Cuicui.

Prime Minister Ye ordered his men to guard the original owner's house and not allow anyone to enter or leave, hoping that she would become a ginseng and then be used for other purposes.

Seeing that the original owner was bedridden and unable to get up, the servants guarding the gate simply took a slack and slipped out to play.

Just when the original owner was dying, a person covered in blood broke into her room and fainted.

The original owner heard him mumbling that he would not be a human being if he didn't kill Xiao Qian, and that he would kill all the members of the royal family. She thought that this person shared the same hatred with her and that she would have no chance of revenge, but this person might not be the case.

Unfortunately, this person's life hangs by a thread.

Therefore, the original owner took a desperate measure and lay on the man, using his strong willpower to force himself back to his original form. Just a small piece of the plant fell on the man's chest.

The shadowy figure saw a ginseng on his body and thought it was a gift from the owner of the house. In order to save his life, he ate it directly.

His recovery speed was amazing. Almost in an instant, all the wounds on his body were healed.

After his injury healed, he left without waiting for anyone, leaving behind the words "great kindness and great virtue will surely be rewarded greatly". Unfortunately, the original owner could no longer see or wait for him.

A few years later, the emperor was seriously ill and was planning to pass the throne to Xiao Jingjian. At this time, a prince named Xiao Dongxu suddenly appeared, led his troops to force the palace, and successfully usurped the throne.

After ascending the throne, he searched for his former savior, only to find out that the original owner had already passed away.

Xiao Dongxu was furious because he had been having the same dream for the past few years since that night. In his dream, a little girl grew up with him and became a graceful young lady.

He had a feeling that it was the little girl who looked sickly back then.

As time went by, he began to have lustful thoughts about her, and fell deeply in love with her. He had already decided to marry the girl to be his queen.

He excitedly sent people to find her whereabouts, but he didn't expect that the girl he was thinking about had already died.

A closer look revealed that the girl had lived a life without love or care since she was born. From the age of two, she was living in hell, with her flesh cut and blood drained every day, a life worse than death.

Holding a stack of investigation materials, he was heartbroken beyond words.

I also have some understanding of the original owner's identity.

He sent people to capture the Queen, Xiao Jingjian, Fang Yinyin, Prime Minister Ye, and Ye Baolian. They cut their flesh and drained their blood every day, and forced them to eat half-cooked meals made from each other's meat.

He also ordered that they be kept under strict surveillance and that none of them be allowed to die within twenty years.

Afterwards, Xiao Dongxu killed all the royal family members except himself. Anyone who pleaded for mercy in the court was beheaded by Xiao Dongxu.

If someone persuaded him to participate in the imperial selection, he would be beheaded. If a court official forcibly abducted a commoner woman, he would be beheaded. If a relative forcibly abducted a commoner woman, he would be beheaded.

If you have three wives and four concubines, you will be beheaded. If you do not treat your children equally, you will be beheaded.

I even heard that someone cured their illness by eating 100-year-old ginseng and chopped off their head...

During his short reign of just a few years, the court officials were replaced three times for various reasons. In the Yong Dynasty, being an official suddenly became the most risky profession, without a doubt.
