Chapter 131: A Hidden Crisis
"What kind of counter-effects, what do you mean by that?"
"Did you feel anything was wrong with your body?"
"Is something wrong?" So to speak
I raised my hand and rubbed my temples, "Something seems to be wrong, my head is a little dizzy." ”
"What else?" Yin Linxi frowned, and his fingers unconsciously grabbed my shoulder.
"Other than that," I shook my head, not feeling anything wrong, "if there's anything you want to say, just say it!" ”
Yin Linxi was silent for a while.
Then he pinched my hand, "How's it going?" Does it hurt? ”
"What are you doing here?" I was further confused by his actions.
His expression was extremely nervous, "Does it hurt?" ”
I lowered my eyes, looked at the back of my slightly reddened hand, and wondered, "It doesn't hurt!" What exactly do you mean by that? ”
"This is the anti-devouring effect of the Blood Pill." Yin Linxi's expression was a little complicated.
"Huh? What kind of anti-phagocytic effect is this? Yin Linxi, are you sick? ”
With that, I reached out and poked his head into it.
He suddenly grabbed my hand tightly, "This is actually what Shen Xiao told me, this elixir is extremely evil, although it can heal seriously injured and dying people, but it also has a side effect, that is, it will make the person who takes the pill lose consciousness on the surface of the body. ”
"Are you kidding me?" I didn't take it too seriously, I just withdrew my hand from his hand and smiled, "What are you making up, why are you making this up?" ”
"I mean seriously... It's all my fault, why did you take you to the gorge pass, it's all my fault! Yin Linxi's fingers clenched into fists and slammed them on the edge of the bed.
When he looked at me again, his dark eyes were full of sorrow.
"So, what you and I said is true?"
Obviously, I don't have any special feelings on my body, why would it...
Seeing his solemn expression, I was slightly stunned.
Then he raised his hand suspiciously, rolled up his sleeves and looked at his arm... Lower your head and bite hard!
But when I bit down this bite, a thunderbolt directly fell from the top of my head, and I was chopped with meat and vegetables.
Because, I obviously used all my strength to bite my arm, but I really didn't feel the slightest sensation in my arm, as if I was biting someone else's arm.
"What is this? The Walking Dead? I smiled bitterly and stared at the two deep tooth marks left on my arm.
"Su'er..."Yin Linxi was about to speak.
At the door of the house, Taoxin's voice came at the right time, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the palace has sent someone again." ”
"Nope! Let them go back and say that I am sick, and it is not appropriate to drag my sick body to disturb my father. ”
After Yin Linxi threw down this sentence, he wanted to speak to me again.
"Ahem," at this time, someone at the door coughed dryly twice, followed by the sharp voice of the waiter, "His Royal Highness the Prince, I'm afraid it's inappropriate, after all, the emperor has been refusing to go to the court for a month on this ground, the emperor is already angry, and now that Jin Damang has come to Jicheng, if you ignore it, I'm afraid..."
The chamberlain didn't finish his words, but the meaning was already very clear.
Yin Linxi frowned, "What did you say?" Jin Damang is here? ”
"Yes!" The door is neither humble nor arrogant to answer, "The emperor is summoning him at the moment, so he sent a servant to come over to send you a message, and the emperor also said that since His Royal Highness is the prince of a country, he should focus on state affairs, otherwise he may cause trouble in the future, so the prince should go to the palace with the slave, and it will not be good for the emperor to wait for a long time." ”
Inside the house, Yin Linxi did not reply immediately, but hesitated a little.
Looks like he's worried about my feelings.
And I am not such an unreasonable person, although I know that Jin Damang has no official position but can be summoned by the emperor, it must be related to the marriage contract between Xu Yin Linxi and Jin Ya, but since Yin Linxi promised that I would not marry her, then I am willing to believe him.
So, after thinking about it
"There you go! I'm fine! ”
"But your body"
"Okay, don't mother-in-law, this little thing is not to be afraid of!"
Yin Linxi looked at me, still with a relieved expression.
I smiled faintly, then simply hugged his slightly stiff body and whispered in my ear, "Go quickly, I'll just wait for you to come back!" ”
With that, I stepped back and waved at him.
Yin Linxi's eyes were full of emotion, he helped my shoulder, and said heavily, "Wait for me." ”
Only then did he get up, open the door and walk out.
And after he and the waiter outside the house hurried away, my upright body finally collapsed.
looked blankly at his arms that still had two deep tooth marks, and he always felt incredible in his heart, what kind of evil medicine was the blood pill, how could it make people lose the perception of the body surface?
Just then, Mommy came in with a mahogany tray again.
As she walked in, she looked back, as if she was a little puzzled.
It wasn't until he walked to my side that he put down the bowl and said to me, "Princess, before His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left with the people of that palace, he arranged heavy troops and surrounded the three outer layers of the Prince's Mansion, what is going on?" Could it be that someone is trying to harm the princess? ”
Thinking of this, Taoxin immediately stretched out her hand to protect me, and looked around as if she was facing a great enemy, making a posture that was ready to fight with the people at any time.
I smiled bitterly and gently pushed away her hand that was blocking me, "Don't worry, there will be no assassins here, and Yin Linxi has to guard against no one else, it is his father." ”
"Your Majesty?" Momoxin was stunned for a moment, then turned her eyes to look at me suspiciously, "How come?" The princess is the emperor's daughter-in-law, why does he want to harm you? ”
Why?
I looked at the window at a small square blue sky, "It's just that the birds are good and the bow is hidden, in the past, I had Zhongli to support me, Xian Yu was weak in order to unite Zhongli to resist Wu Guo naturally had scruples about me, but now that Zhongli is gone, I am just an orphan girl whose country is ruined, and they also count a blood debt of 100,000 elite soldiers on me, if it weren't for Yin Linxi's name as the prince to protect me, the emperor of Xianyu would have wished I would die immediately, but now he urgently needs Yin Linxi to marry Jin Ya in order to stabilize his country, If not, he is afraid that he will threaten Yin Linxi with my life again. ”
"That's why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will deploy heavy troops to protect the princess!" Peach Heart suddenly realized.
I smiled and was noncommittal.
I just felt something strange in my throat, so I couldn't stop coughing.
"Princess!" Momoshin exclaimed in surprise and hurried to find clothes for me.
But because I couldn't help the strange feeling in my throat, I casually picked up the medicine bowl that I put on the side of the bed, and drank it with my head up.
"Princess, you"
When I put down the bowl, Momoshin was holding a red cloak in her hand, looking at me with a stunned face.
I wiped my mouth and said, "What's wrong?" ”
Mommy didn't speak immediately, just walked over and looked at the bottom of the bowl.
It suddenly occurred to me that I had lost my senses and that Momono didn't seem to know yet, so when she saw that I had drunk all the medicinal soup, she would have a ghost-like expression on her face.
"This" In order to hide the embarrassment, I took the cloak from her hand and put it on my body, and said with a dry smile, "This medicine is really bitter." ”
"Princess, what's wrong with you?" Momshin raised her eyelids and stared at me blankly.
I was stared at by her for a while, "Why not, I just think that this medicine will have no effect when it is cold there." ”
"But this is not medicine, it's ginseng soup, how can ginseng soup be bitter?"
Uh, that's ginseng soup?
Because of my weak heart, my eyes began to wander around the room, "If it's not medicine, then why is it bitter to drink?" Maybe someone else is mistaken! ”
"This is impossible, this ginseng soup is boiled by my own hands, and I sent it by myself, it has never been through the hands of others, and this ginseng soup has just come out of the pot, so I put it here, I wanted to wait for it to be better to let you drink it, how do you"
"Hehe, that's weird."
Seeing that the situation was not good, I simply lay down and pretended to be sick and weak.
Anyway, the less people know about my loss of feeling, it's not because I don't trust Mokoshin, but God knows what kind of trouble it will get me, and I don't like the feeling that other people are accommodating me in everything like taking care of a disability.
And I pretended to be sick and weak, and Peach Heart really had no choice but to hold the empty bowl and look at me in disbelief.
Until the door is gently slammed.
The evening also came in with something.
knelt beside my bed and said, "Crown Princess, this is the tonic that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ordered the kitchen to stew before leaving, please use it." ”
"Make it up?" I was afraid of looking at Taoxin's inquiring eyes, so I didn't get up, but waved my hand casually, "No need, I've already drunk ginseng soup just now, so let's leave this tonic there." ”
Hearing me say this, there was a wave on the night child's face, and the look of urgency was revealed.
Unfortunately, I turned my back to her and didn't see it.
I only heard her whisper, "After all, this is a piece of His Royal Highness the Prince's heart, if the Crown Princess lives up, I am afraid that the slave and maid will not be able to explain it to His Highness." ”
"Oops!" I sat up very bored and stretched out my hand to Wan'er who was kneeling on the ground, "Okay, okay, I'll use it, can't I use it?" Bring! ”
"Yes!" Wan'er was overjoyed, and carefully handed over the tonic in his hand to me.
In order not to arouse their suspicions, I deliberately fiddled with the spoon a few times, and only after the rising heat had dissipated a little and made sure that it was not so hot, I brought the spoon close to my mouth.
Wan'er's expression became more relaxed as the spoon got closer to my mouth.
But coincidentally, at this time, a guard outside the door came in and said, "Crown Princess, Shen Youxiang is here." ”
Shen Xiao?
My fingers unconsciously lowered the spoon, "What is he doing here?" ”
"Back to the crown princess, Shen Youxiang said that he had something to tell you, and he was waiting outside the door at the moment!"
I lowered my eyes slightly to look at the faded tooth marks on my arm.
He then waved at the guard, "Let him in!" ”
"Yes!"
The guards were ordered to retreat.
After a while, Shen Xiao strode in through the door.
That handsome face looked at me with joy, "Su'er! ”
After calling this sentence, he was about to step forward when he was blocked by Peach Heart.
Shen Xiao's complexion couldn't help but change, and finally he had to look at me happily through his peach heart, "You're finally awake!" ”
"Thanks to Shen Youxiang's elixir, I was able to survive," I said this sentence tepidly, and bowed to him slightly, "I don't know what Shen Youxiang is doing here today?" ”
Probably because the sense of alienation in my tone was too great, Shen Xiao's eyes dimmed.
The thin lips hooked a wry smile, "I heard that you woke up, so I came to see you." ”
"Oh?" I raised my eyelids with a smile, "Shen Youxiang's news is really well-informed!" I'm afraid that there is some dirt in this prince's mansion that needs to be cleaned up. ”
"Don't say that, Su'er, I'm just worried about you."
Speaking of which, he seemed to have inadvertently seen the bowl in my hand.
So I immediately pushed away the peach heart, snatched the soup bowl containing the tonic from my hand, put it on the tip of my nose and sniffed it.
Then he asked in a cold voice towards Momoshin, "What is this?" ”
"Supplements," I glanced blankly, "Shen Youxiang can't see this?" ”
"Tonic " Shen Xiao sneered, raised his hand and smashed the bowl to smithereens.
"Shen Xiao, what are you doing?"
Seeing that I was a little angry, Shen Xiao pointed to the soup stains on the ground and said, "Why is there a hook kiss in the tonic?" ”
"What did you say?" My heart was pounding, I knew that the hook kiss was very poisonous, and anyone who got it would definitely die.
At this time, Wan'er's fingers clutching the corners of her skirt were white due to nervousness.
"How can there be such a poisonous thing as a hook kiss?" Taoxin twisted her eyebrows, and then looked at Wan'er, "Wan'er, you"
Wan'er lowered her head and didn't dare to say a word.
Shen Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, slowly paced to her side, and looked at her, "You sent this tonic?" ”
Wan'er's face couldn't help but panic anymore, and hurriedly knelt at Shen Xiao's feet, begging for mercy, "Please spare the princess, please spare Shen Youxiang's life, the slaves and maids are all forced, it was the emperor who forced me to do this, he killed my eldest brother, and told me that if I can't kill the princess, then my second brother will not escape death, the slaves and maids are all forced, please spare the princess!" ”
"Evening, are you really doing this?" I shook my head in disbelief.
Although I don't treat this girl as close as Taoxin and Jingyun Feather, I can definitely trust her, but I didn't expect her to be
Shen Xiao's narrowed eyes were filled with a strong killing intent, and then he grabbed her throat and dragged Wan'er up from the ground.
"Shen Xiao! Don't kill her! I exclaimed, knowing very well his intentions.
So he hurriedly got out of bed, wanting to stop it.
But before I could get to him, there was an instant muffled sound of a blade piercing into **.
Looking over again, Wan'er was already kneeling on the ground.
He spat out a few mouthfuls of blood, looked at me with tears on his face, opened his mouth and said faintly, "I'm sorry!" ”
"Late!" I pounced.
But before she could catch her falling arm, she had already fallen in a pool of blood and lost her breath.
My fingers trembled slightly, and I caressed the face that was still with tears.
Then he glared angrily at Shen Xiao, who was holding a bloody short knife behind him, with a relaxed face, "Why did you kill her?" ”
Shen Xiao was stunned for a moment, and looked at me very puzzled, "She wants to harm you, shouldn't she be damned?" ”
"You madman!" I stood up and pushed him away.
Shen Xiao took a step back slightly, looking at me with a hurt face, "Why are you doing this to me?" I'm here to help you! ”
"You..."
I was so angry that I was a little out of breath in my chest, and then my eyes went black, and I almost collapsed.
"Su'er." Shen Xiao dropped the short knife in his hand and hurriedly stepped forward to support me, "Your injuries have just healed, so let's have a good rest!" ”
"Let go of me!" I struggled to break away from his hand.
Pointing out the door, "You go!" Please get out of here now! ”
"Su'er!"
"Let's go! Although I am very grateful to you for saving me, I should remember this kindness in my heart, if there is anything I can help you in the future, I will win Suxue will repay it with courtesy, but this prince's mansion, you are not welcome! Please leave now! ”
"You!" Shen Xiao's face was pale, and he looked at me for a long time.
finally flicked his sleeves and walked out the door hatefully.
"Princess..."Peach Heart came over to support me, looked in the direction of Shen Xiao's disappearance, and said worriedly, "He is no longer the Shen commander he was when he was in Zhongli, and now the princess needs to be more wary of him!" ”
I looked down at the evening when I had been breathing on the ground for a long time, and something moved in my heart.
In the end, he had to hold his forehead and call out to the outside of the house, "Come on, take the evening down, and bury it!" ”
