Chapter 46: Can't stand the toss

Chapter 46 Can't stand the toss

"...obey the order." Seven kills complied with the order.

He felt that the third master had favored him too much recently.

But the third master didn't ask for anything.

This made him feel particularly uneasy.

"Get up quickly." Pei Yi helped him up.

Now that she just knew the future identity of this boss, she was flustered and couldn't help asking: "You guys who are the hidden guards will take special poison from the beginning, right?"

Qi Sha was silent for a moment, then let out a low "hmm".

Pei Yi thought for a while, and asked cautiously: "How do you feel when the poison occurs?"

Qisha lowered his eyes, half of his face was hidden in the darkness, and half of his face was in the candlelight.

"Life is better than death." He said quietly.

Pei Yi's mood became more complicated. She thought that the boss would describe it in more detail, but she didn't expect it to be such a simple four words in the end.

But these four words are so heavy, they are worth a thousand words.

Qi Sha took a deep look at Pei Yi, and said softly: "As long as you complete the task on time, you will get the antidote on time, and you won't suffer from the poison." The third master doesn't have to worry about me.

He didn't say the second half of the sentence, because he was afraid of humiliating himself.

Pei Yi was terrified when she heard these words.

Since the antidote is given once a month, then...

"Is the poison also taken every month?" Pei Yi asked in confusion.

Qisha's eyes were downcast, and the long eyelashes blocked the eyes, making it hard to see clearly.

He said softly and slowly: "Everything the dark guard eats is mixed with a small amount of poison."

Pei Yi turned pale in shock: "You mean...you are taking poison every day?!"

Qi Sha looked up at her, then quickly lowered his head, and said in a low voice: "It was originally like this, but during this period of time, the third master asked his subordinates to eat and live with you, and the subordinates have not contacted for a while. It's poisonous."

He shouldn't have said such words.

He should take advantage of the fact that Pei Sanlang doesn't know the twists and turns of the hidden guards, and take the opportunity to gain the benefit of not having to take poison.

But for some reason, he just wants to tell Pei Sanlang clearly about these things now, even if he takes the risk that Pei Yi may ask him to continue taking poison in the future.

In the other room, Pei Yi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank God, she did a good job by accident!

"You will continue to eat and live with me in the future." Pei Yi warned worriedly, "You only obey my orders, and you don't care what other people tell you to do. Even if that person is my father, you don't care."

Otherwise, with the cannon fodder of their Pei family, maybe the father and brother of the Pei family will do something to provoke the boss again.

After all, what kind of unlucky cannon fodder will be needed to let the future emperor of the enemy country act as a dead guard in his own home?

System: (ω)

How is he going to tell the host that the Pei family is just as good as cannon fodder—not only has the matter of treating the emperor of the enemy country as a dead soldier, but he has also unintentionally spread the matter of humiliating other big bosses.

"...As ordered." Qi Sha lowered his head, subconsciously about to kneel down.

But the moment he bent his knees, he remembered the third master's advice and held back.

Although he is calm on the surface now, the inside is full of turbulent waves.

Third Master treated him... really kind.

If it is said that the third master treats Du Heng well, it is because this person is the third master's servant in the first place, and this person teases the third master all day long.

If it is said that the third master is good to Ji An, it is because the third master is obviously interested in this person, and from time to time he will touch him.

But the third master treats him well...and why?

He is just a secret guard.

I don't see the third master treating other hidden guards so favorably.

"It's getting late, take a rest." Pei Yi said.

"...As ordered." Seven kills respectfully retreated to the outside room, his heart turned upside down.

In the past, what the third master said was "it's getting late, you should step back".

But what the third master said today was "It's getting late, you should take a rest".

There is a big difference in meaning between the pair of "retire" and "rest"?

The former is more of an order, but the latter has a sense of caring in it.

Qi Sha was tossing and turning in bed, unable to sleep.

The other end.

Inner chamber.

Pei Yi also tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

She was seriously recalling the story about Chu Linze, the big villain in the book.

The boss in the book has always wanted to annex countries to rule the world.

During the civil turmoil in the Great Zhou, this villain has been taking the opportunity to encroach on the territory of the Great Zhou.

When the male protagonist became the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the two directly clashed.

If the other big villains were favorable competitors for the male protagonist during the civil strife in Zhou Dynasty, then Chu Linze was the most powerful competitor for the male protagonist after he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor.

Pei Yi couldn't help but glanced in the direction of the outside room.

With such a boss, she has to coax her well.

If she can coax the boss to sign a peace agreement with Da Zhou in the future, then she will be a high incense for several lifetimes.

The other end.

The capital, Pei's family.

"Daughter writes to us very frequently recently." Mrs. Pei said happily.

Pei Shu frowned after reading the letter: "Sanskrit wants to find an antidote for Qisha."

"Seven kills?" Mrs. Pei thought for a while, "Is that the dead man of Sanskrit?"

"Yes." Pei Shu nodded calmly, and said meaningfully, "Qi Sha is very good-looking."

Mrs. Pei's eyelids twitched suddenly: "You mean... Sanskrit has taken a fancy to this dead man?"

Pei Shu said in a complicated mood: "As long as one likes men, it is inevitable that one will not be moved by Qi Sha's face."

He deliberately reminded Qisha to wear a mask, did his daughter take off his mask?

"What should I do?" Mrs. Pei said very sadly, "The dead man takes poison all the year round, his health is not good at all, and all of them die young. You said that the dead man... can stand up to us. Is Jia Sanyin tossing?"

Pei Shu coughed twice, awkwardly said: "If Qi Sha can't recover, Sanskrit will naturally dislike him. Why are you worrying about this? Didn't you send Sanskrit a Du?"

Mrs. Pei breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and said with satisfaction: "I taught this child Du Heng all by myself. His appearance, means, and skills are all excellent, and our daughter will definitely be satisfied."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Pei couldn't help but sighed: "With someone like Du Heng by my side, a girl can still fall in love with other people. This is really a long way to go."

Pei Shu smiled disapprovingly: "It is human nature to love beauty. It is impossible to say that you will not be tempted when you see this beautiful flower and the next beautiful flower."

Mrs. Pei sneered: "No wonder some people are committed to turning every wild flower into a house flower. I heard that you took another concubine yesterday?"
