Chapter 414: Chapter 412: Noble Lord, Secret Talk (Part 2)_1

“You intend to use charm techniques to erase the Empress’s memory?”

Lin Qingluo’s heart trembled, and she abruptly turned her head away, avoiding his gaze.

“Miss is clever. You guessed it right in one try.”

Noble Lord’s eyes danced as he chuckled lightly, “I enjoy talking with smart people.”

Lin Qingluo sighed, “Charming techniques can confuse others, but they also harm your own foundation. Long-term use will deplete your vitality, leading to premature aging.”

“I need Miss’s Spirit Pills.”

Noble Lord gently massaged his temples, as if feeling somewhat fatigued. His thoughts seemed disordered for a moment.

“Even with Spirit Pills replenishing your vitality, you cannot use them for an extended period.”

Lin Qingluo bluntly pointed out the truth: “The loss of vitality shortens your lifespan. Judging by your current complexion, your foundation is already depleted. Recovery would be difficult.”

“I’m not afraid of life and death. The only thing I care about is the Prince.”

The light in Noble Lord’s eyes dimmed for a moment but quickly adjusted, as he regained his alluring demeanor.

“You provide Spirit Pills, and I will help you deceive the Emperor. This deal does not put Miss Lin at a disadvantage.”

The secret chamber was silent, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

Lin Qingluo fell into sorrowful contemplation, her thoughts complex and chaotic.

“Miss Lin has no better way to escape the Emperor’s pursuit and protect the Duke of Zhen’s household at present.”

Seeing that she remained silent, Noble Lord leisurely spoke again: “Since that’s the case, why not cooperate with me happily?”

“The Spirit Pill, I’ll give it to you.”

Lin Qingluo sighed dejectedly, took out a bottle of Foundation Strengthening and Essence Nurturing Pills from her Storage Ring, and threw it to Noble Lord.

Noble Lord’s eyes brightened, and he removed the cork, pouring out a pill that exuded a rich fragrance.

After a thoughtful moment, he placed the pill in his mouth and swallowed.

As soon as the Spirit Pill entered his mouth, it dissolved, and a surge of pure spiritual power flowed through every inch of his body.

Revitalized, the sour pain in his brow gradually faded, and his body felt much more relaxed: “Miss Lin is truly a divine doctor in this world; the effect of the Spirit Pill is exceptional.”

Lin Qingluo’s gaze darkened, “I have given you the Spirit Pill, I hope you can keep your promise.”

“Naturally, I always keep my promises.”

Noble Lord’s eyes twinkled, appearing to be smiling: “What else does Miss Lin have to worry about? Didn’t you just witness the Prince’s care for you at the Mental Cultivation Hall?”

Lin Qingluo’s heart fluttered, “Why was Xuan’er at the Mental Cultivation Hall?”

“He overheard from an attendant that the Emperor summoned you and hid in the Mental Cultivation Hall, wanting to surprise you. Unexpectedly, he heard something he shouldn’t have.”

Noble Lord’s gaze flickered as he sighed somberly, “He’s still a child. I genuinely didn’t want him to be exposed to these things. The cruel struggle for imperial power is full of bloodshed. Hopefully, this incident won’t leave a shadow on his young heart.”

I shouldn’t have come back!

Lin Qingluo’s heart sank as a sudden thought flashed through her mind.

Thinking of her loved ones who cared for her, she shook her head, forcibly dispelling her chaotic thoughts.

“Here’s a Spirit Pill that can ensure the Empress’s safety. As for detoxification, I’m not that kind-hearted. Let the Imperial Physician slowly detoxify her. It will take a year or half a year, but she’ll eventually recover.”

“Miss is truly straightforward.”

Noble Lord caught the Spirit Pill and smirked playfully.

“Since the deal has been reached, I will not bother you any longer. I’ll be waiting for your good news in the Duke of Zhen’s mansion.”

She had been in the palace for quite some time now, and with the fire in the Mental Cultivation Hall, Lin Qingluo was worried that her family would be anxious. She didn’t want to delay any longer and stood up to take her leave.

Noble Lord nodded with a seemingly amused smile, “The Prince is worried about you, so please take care of him during these days. I have to serve the Emperor and won’t have time for the Prince.”

“Alright.”

Lin Qingluo agreed readily.

She was also concerned about the Little Prince.

Witnessing the Empress being presented with poisoned wine would inevitably leave a dark cloud over the innocent child’s heart.

What should she do?
