Chapter 489: Sarcasm

The pain in the body is waning.

It seems that he has hope of surviving again.

Feeling the change in body pain, Chen Sansi's heart was like blowing one cold wind after another, painful and cold.

How much did the poisoner hate him?

He didn't know, he only knew that he was now poisoned into the bone marrow, and he could die violently at almost any time.

But he still wanted to live.

Only by living can we tear apart the filthy bodies of those people with our own hands, so that their souls will never rest in peace.

At this moment, Chen Sansi decided.

As long as he can keep him alive, even if he is allowed to make a deal with the devil, he will never regret it.

As the minutes passed, the night gradually became thicker, and the venomous snake curled up beside him had no movement, as if it had fallen into a deep sleep, only the disgusting smell of the fishy smell lingered for a long time.

Chen Sansi clenched his fists.

He finally had some strength, and slowly pulled out the short blade at his waist.

With all the strength of his body, he quickly swung a few knives in a certain direction.

The stinky snake blood splashed on his face, and the cold feeling made his heart no longer fluctuate, and Chen Sansi still didn't stop moving.

It wasn't until he couldn't move his arm anymore and the muscles in his arm twitched and ached that he had no choice but to stop.

Curled up in the hole, panting slightly.

He's going to die with the corpse of the viper.

It may not be long before the corpse hidden in the hollow of the tree will become a delicacy for the rest of the beasts.

He was able to accept his end.

Chen Sansi closed his eyes peacefully.

At least before he died, he didn't let a venomous snake fall into his prestige.

He comforted himself so much in his heart.

However, as the night deepened, I don't know if it was a reaction after poisoning, he actually heard a rustling movement outside.

Not like an animal, but like a human footstep.

Stepping on a dead branch, there was a 'crunch'.

Stepping on a pile of weeds is like a poisonous snake spitting out a snake hyacinth.

For no reason, the hairs on his body stood up.

Before dying, people's fears are magnified by the influence of the environment.

Chen Sansi finally realized what it means to be near-death.

Soon after, his suspicions were confirmed, and in the darkness he saw a pair of hands digging through the weeds that were hiding the hollows in the trees.

It was a masked man in black.

The next moment, Chen Sansi didn't have time to react, and after smelling a clear fragrance, he fell into the boundless darkness again.

……

I don't know how long it has been, Chen Sansi, who was awakened from the nightmare, suddenly opened his eyes, the bloodshot in his eyes had not disappeared, he was sweating profusely staring at the top of the bed, and his heart was pounding, almost jumping out of his throat.

Suddenly, Chen Sansi's pupils constricted.

Almost without hesitation, he stood up, lifted the bed tent next to him, and looked at the strange place in front of him for a long time.

As if hearing movement in the room, there was a clear sound of footsteps in the hallway, and a figure approaching the room.

When he saw the person coming, the muscles of Chen Sansi's whole body immediately tensed, and his angry eyes stared straight at the person in front of him, and he subconsciously made a defensive posture.

The person who came was a handsome young man, holding a bowl of black medicine in his hand, looking at him sitting on the edge of the bed with an expressionless face.

At this moment, Chen Sansi thought that the young man was holding a poison in his hand that would end his life.

Half-squinting his eyes and looking at it for a long time, his mind was in chaos, and he really couldn't find the owner of this face.

As a last resort, Chen Sansi had no choice but to ask: "Who are you?" ”

At the moment of speaking, even Chen Sansi was stunned by this voice.

It's hard to hear.

It's harsh.

It's like someone is cutting flesh piece by piece with a knife.

Chen Sansi was slightly stunned, but the person in front of him was very sober.

With an expressionless face, he put the medicine bowl on the wooden cabinet next to him, and replied expressionlessly: "The third prince can call me Rong Mu, I am Prince Changrong's subordinate." ”

Qi Changrong?!

Chen Sansi immediately sounded the alarm bell in his mind, and his pupils began to dilate unconsciously, as if he was caught in a certain memory.

After a while, Chen Sansi finally collected his emotions, took a deep breath and asked, "The people of Prince Changrong?" How do I know if you're lying? ”

Hearing this, Rong Mu smiled sarcastically: "The third prince wants to test me?" If it weren't for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince secretly helping, the three princes probably wouldn't even be able to get out of the gate of the capital,"

Speaking of this, Rong Mu paused, but changed his words casually: "No, you can't even get out of the door of the Bird Palace." ”

As soon as these words came out, Chen Sansi finally confirmed the identity of the person in front of him.

Indeed, Qi Changrong's subordinates of the Jin Kingdom.

Otherwise, how could he know his affairs so clearly?

I don't know what I thought, a sincere smile appeared on Chen Sansi's face: "I originally thought that Prince Changrong really let me go, but I didn't expect that he would arrange such a hand in secret, I underestimated him." ”

"It's not underestimated, it's never seen clearly."

Rong Mu shrugged his shoulders, raised his chin slightly, and said with a little pride in his tone: "His Royal Highness the Prince's thoughts are not something ordinary people can guess. ”

"You're right."

Chen Sansi smiled, licked his dry mouth and continued to ask: "Since you have already appeared in front of me, does it mean that I am qualified to know what Prince Changrong is calculating this time?" ”

"All this was brought on by the third prince."

Rong Mu leaned on the wardrobe next to him, half-squinted and said: "Before letting the third prince leave the Bird Palace, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince reminded the third prince countless times that returning to Chen Country was tantamount to throwing himself into a net, but the third prince insisted. ”

Rong Mu continued: "All the suffering and embarrassment were caused by the three princes, the three princes were originally the ones who deserved to die, and now that I have saved the lives of the three princes, the three princes should thank His Royal Highness the crown prince for saving his life." ”

After walking around the ghost gate, Chen Sansi, who had figured out a lot of things, nodded approvingly: "I should thank her." ”

After that, Chen Sansi looked back on Rong Mu's body: "So, what is Qi Changrong's calculation?" ”

Xu was dissatisfied with Chen Sansi's name of calling Qi Changrong directly, Rong Mu frowned unconsciously, and there was a bit of chill in his voice: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to make a deal with the third prince." ”

"What deal?"

Rong Mu looked at him coldly: "I thought the third prince was a smart person, I should have guessed it a long time ago." ”

Chen Sansi replied without hesitation: "At this moment, I would rather be the stupidest fool in the world. ”

"But the third prince is not."

"You're right." Chen Sansi did not shy away from Rong Mu's scrutiny, and gave a sober answer: "So about the transaction of Prince Changrong, I agree." ”

Rong Mu was stunned, he didn't expect him to be so straightforward: "Won't the third prince ask more?" ”

"Didn't you say I'm smart? Among the wise people, since they already know it in their hearts, why should they ask more. ”

Rong Mu nodded: "The third prince is very calm. ”

Having said that, there really isn't much to ask alone.

After thinking about it in his heart, Rong Mu finally mentioned a sentence: "In the Chen Kingdom, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be responsible for protecting the safety of the three princes, and when the prince does not have to worry about the things that happened before, the price that the three princes have to pay ......"

"That is, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will act in the name of the three princes in the Chen Kingdom, and the three princes must not come forward to deny or obstruct them."

"Okay." Chen Sansi responded without hesitation.

He was so crisp, but Rong Mu was more cautious.

"But I have to remind the three princes, the poison in the three princes is very strange, our medicine can only be taken in stages, after taking it, the toxicity will be temporarily suppressed, but it cannot be eradicated, maybe it won't be long before the toxicity will get out of control and completely explode in the body of the three princes."

"At that time, it will be difficult for the gods to heal."

"I don't care."

Chen Sansi did not show the fear of death on his face, but his face was calm: "How long is my life?" ”

"Half a year, six months,"

Rong Mu paused: "Maybe less than six months, maybe longer than six months, who can say for sure?" ”

Chen Sansi understood what he meant.

That's six months at most.

Knowing that his life had entered the countdown, a faint smile appeared in Chen Sansi's eyes.

Prince Changrong's people are really straightforward.

even inherited the style of Prince Changrong's faction, giving him a little light when people were desperate, so that he knew that he was making a deal with the devil, and he was willing to do it.

"That's enough."

"Six months is not enough to govern a country, but it is enough to bring a country to decay, and then use decay to forge the prosperity of another country." ”

As soon as these words came out, Rong Mu couldn't help but look at Chen Sansi twice.

He knew what the third prince of Chen Guo was like in the past.

So when I saw such an arrogant and domineering person who had to dictate almost everything, it became indifferent to what he is today.

Who would have thought that just three years could make a huge change in a person's life.

"Well, it's a pleasure to work with."

……

Rong Mu's actions were swift and agile, and it only took ten days for Chen Sansi to return to the capital of Chen State in an open and honest manner.

At this time, according to the will of the previous Emperor Chen, Chen Sansi had been named King Zhong, and there was a palace of King Zhong outside the palace.

At this point, there are no three princes in the Chen Kingdom, only King Zhong.

Chen Sansi is no stranger to the palace, he has lived in it for a few months.

I think that at the beginning, after absconding back to Chen Guo, his royal brother didn't want to have many dreams at night, because he tried to trouble him, intending to kill him as soon as possible, so as to prevent future troubles.

It was only in the end that after the admonition of the civil and military officials, as well as the 'not to investigate' from the Jin State, I had to temporarily let go of my murderous intentions against him.

Lately, however, his royal brother has been stalking him like a mad wild dog, eager to bite off his flesh.

Chen Sansi narrowed his eyes.

Rong Mu, who was accompanying the palace as a 'friend', noticed the dark light in Chen Sansi's eyes, and couldn't help asking, "What is the prince thinking?" ”

"I'm thinking, the word 'loyalty' is really a great irony for me."
