Quick Wear: The Law of Salvation of Cannon Fodder

Chapter 27: The Redemption of the Ancient Emperor 2

Xie Qi, who had just accepted the plot, had not yet had time to digest the fact that the brutal person sitting above was his wife, when he heard a low voice in his ear.

"You want to stay too?"

After hearing this, Xie Qi's thoughts were brought back to reality. He looked up at the emperor cautiously.

At first glance, Xie Qi recognized that the other person was his A Ze. Although there was no love in the other person's eyes at this time, he would not make a mistake.

Chu Ye, who was being stared at by Xie Qi, couldn't help but frown. He didn't understand why the other party showed such a sad and happy expression.

"Why are you silent?"

At this time, Xie Qi finally came to his senses and was horrified to find that the six people who came with him were now lying in a pool of blood, with blood flowing all over the ground. The whole scene was shocking and horrific!

Xie Qi couldn't help swallowing his saliva. He was sure that if he had said he wanted to stay, he would probably be lying on the ground like the others.

However, he knew that he had to stay here. If he died, the Regent would definitely send other spies to lurk around the male protagonist.

Seeing Chu Ye Ze's expression becoming increasingly gloomy, Xie Qi did not dare to hesitate and quickly replied, "My Lord, I am actually a spy planted by the Regent to be by your side!"

Xie Qi's words were like a bombshell, shocking everyone present. Even the guards who were about to draw their swords were stunned.

Chu Ye narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing Xie Qi, and asked in a cold tone, "Why did you tell me this?"

Xie Qi took a deep breath and replied calmly, "I have always longed to follow Your Majesty, but fate has forced me into the Regent's Palace. At first, I believed the Regent was sincerely assisting Your Majesty, but as time went on, I gradually became aware of his deeply hidden intentions of rebellion."

"I heard that the Regent wanted to select someone to be placed by His Majesty's side, so I risked my life to come here."

"I am a powerless emperor, why should I follow you? Wouldn't it be better to serve the Regent?"

Chu Ye's lips curled up into a mocking smile as he looked at Xie Qi coldly. He absolutely did not believe that Xie Qi would offend the Regent for the sake of a powerless emperor like him.

Feeling bored, Chu Ye raised his hand slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of boredom and fatigue. It seemed that he had lost interest in the scene before him.

The guard beside him keenly caught Chu Ye Ze's gesture. He drew his sword without hesitation and walked towards Xie Qi.

Every step was accompanied by a heavy sense of oppression, as if the whole world had frozen at this moment.

Xie Qi stared at the approaching guards with wide eyes in horror, thinking to himself, "Is he going to kill me again? I just got here, and I'm going to be killed by my wife? Does it have to be so tragic?"

Seeing the sharp sword about to fall, Xie Qi immediately shouted, "Master, I know why you experience bone-piercing pain every month! It's because you have a poisonous insect hidden in your body, and this insect can only be effective with this medicine."

"The medicine is colorless and odorless, and even the imperial physician can hardly detect the secret within. The Regent sent me here so that I can give you the medicine every month!"

Xie Qi knelt on his knees, raised his hands above his head, and presented the medicine given to him by the Regent to everyone.

The guard's movements froze in mid-air, his gaze turning to the potion in Xie Qi's hand. He carefully took the bottle from Xie Qi, then quickly retreated to Chu Ye Ze's side and said respectfully, "My Lord."

At this moment, Chu Ye was filled with mixed emotions. He had never imagined that the pain he had endured over the years was actually due to Gu.

This astonishing discovery left him in deep shock. He stared at the bottle of potion, as if he could see through it the conspiracy hidden behind it.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, staring coldly at Xie Qi who was kneeling on the ground before him, and asked in a cold tone, "Do you know how to remove the poisonous insect?"

"My Lord, the poisonous insect has now become fused with your flesh and blood, living and dying with you. If you rashly and forcibly remove it, I'm afraid Your Majesty will also die."

"Be bold!"

As Xie Qi finished speaking, he saw two sharp swords across his neck, flashing cold light, which made people shudder.

At this moment, the emperor was tightly gripping the armrests of the dragon throne. The veins on his palms were bulging from excessive force, and a biting cold air emanated from his whole body.

Xie Qi looked at this scene and hurriedly explained, "Master, please calm down. There is actually a way. As long as you stop taking the potion, the insect will enter a dormant state on its own and will not cause any damage to your dragon body."

After Xie Qi finished speaking, the cold chill that had originally filled the air gradually dissipated.

Chu Ye was secretly surprised. He never thought that such a confidential matter was known to the other party so clearly, and was willing to tell him, the puppet emperor.

Then, he slowly stood up and approached Xie Qi with steady steps, each step seeming to step on people's hearts.

He raised his hand and pinched Xie Qi's cheek, his cold eyes staring at him like an eagle, making people dare not look directly at him.

"I will verify what you say, but I don't believe you. Others avoid me as much as they can. Why do you follow me? Do you think I will believe you?"

Chu Ye was silent for a moment, then a sarcastic smile curled up his lips. His voice was low and oppressive, carrying an irresistible intimidation as he spoke, "Unless... you commit suicide."

"My Lord, I am not afraid of death. I am only afraid that after my death the Regent will send someone to your side to harm you."

Chu Ye just said coldly: "No one can stay alive."

"That's right. How could your lord, who is so brave and powerful, not be able to tell who the spy is? It's my subordinates who are stupid."

"If the Lord truly wishes me to die, I dare not disobey. But before I die, please allow me to say a few words to the Lord. Let me fulfill my wish."

"A wish? Since you told me the truth, I won't be so stingy."

At this moment, Xie Qi's eyes gradually turned red, and he looked at Chu Ye Ze with deep affection in his eyes. Tears slid uncontrollably from the corners of his eyes, slowly flowed along his cheeks, and finally dripped onto the fingertips of Chu Ye Ze that pinched his face.

"In fact, I have always harbored a deep admiration for Your Majesty. Knowing my humble status, I dare not ask for anything more than just a glance at you from afar. Even if it means sacrificing my life, I am willing to silently guard Your Majesty."

Chu Ye, who was originally flustered and out of his normal state because of Xie Qi's words, was now frightened by the warm teardrop and quickly let go and quickly stepped back.

He stared blankly at Xie Qi's sad face, and suddenly felt a sharp pain deep in his heart. He instinctively wanted to raise his hand to wipe away the tears on Xie Qi's face, but stopped in an instant.

He really couldn't understand why he had such a reaction, but seeing the other person in so much pain and discomfort, he couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness in his heart.

At this moment, Xie Qi's voice rang out again: "I am very happy to die at the hands of my master. I only hope that after I die, my body will not defile my master's bedroom."

After Xie Qi finished speaking, he slowly picked up the long sword from the ground. Every movement he made seemed extremely difficult and heavy.

Although his face was covered with tears, he wore a happy smile. However, his tightly furrowed brows could not hide the endless sadness deep in his heart.

However, at this moment, Xie Qi was shouting to 948 in his heart, "No! Is there really no one to stop me?! I've already come this far, are you still going to let me die?!!"
