It was getting late, and the already gloomy weather was getting worse and worse, and the cold wind was smashing the snow particles on the eaves and treetops on the face, and it hurt like a knife.

Zhu couldn't hold on anymore, and his lips turned blue-purple.

Du Zhe ignored her objections and forcibly helped her into the house.

Shen Qingyang and Liu Qi stood behind Mei Xue on the left and right, and continued to confront Du Xin.

Du Xin was obviously getting more and more uneasy, and when he saw Du Zhe sending Zhu into the house, he suddenly smiled and said:

"My mother's health is not good, this will have to wait for a while, I will go and get the medicine she is used to first."

After saying that, he pulled his legs and wanted to go out.

Mei Xue chuckled and said aloud:

"Shizi, there is only half an hour left before the time we agreed, and Madame will not worry about her life in this little time.

But you can't go, because if you don't return, the soldiers who are all over the courtyard listening to your orders will not be able to speak clearly, and their lives will be their lives! ”

Zheng Long and the others immediately became alert, and immediately blocked Du Xin's way back, staring at Du Xin with unkind expressions.

Du Xin laughed angrily, pointed at Mei Xue and said angrily:

"This is King Yan's Mansion, I am the prince of King Yan, and it is not your turn to be a lowly medical woman to point fingers at me."

Mei Xue nodded, smiled and said:

"What the prince said is very right, but what I want to say is that today is the last chance for you to call yourself the prince of Yanwang, right?"

Du Xin's face changed instantly, and he hesitated for a while before staring at Mei Xue and asking:

"What do you mean?"

Mei Xue smiled slightly, looked up at the cloudy sky, and said:

"From the victim to the perpetrator, you have walked a thorny road, but it is too late for you to have a chance to turn back."

Zheng Long and his subordinates didn't know the inside story, and after listening to Mei Xue's words, they all looked at each other with a puzzled face.

Du Xin obviously understood Mei Xue's words, because the fear in his eyes instantly increased, and even his lips began to tremble.

He had heard of Mei Xue's name for a long time, but he really didn't expect Mei Xue to be able to recognize his identity.

Obviously, they have only met twice, and it is clear that he has been living in the north for more than four years as the prince of King Yan.

None of the people in the entire palace, including the officers and men in the army, ever doubted him.

The woman in front of her must be a demon girl, as long as she can be eliminated, everything may have a chance to be redeemed.

The cold wind ruffled Du Xin's hair, and the moment he raised his hand to puff away the messy hair on his forehead, several extremely fine silver lights flashed from his sleeves and shot towards Mei Xue.

Shen Qingyang snorted, and the sword in his hand also slashed in front of Mei Xue at the same moment.

The silver needle, as thin as a hair, fell to the ground, and it was impossible to see it without looking closely.

Shen Qingyang looked at Du Xin and said in a cold voice:

"What else do you have to do? While there is still an opportunity, you can do it all. ”

Du Xin took two steps back, his face turning pale.

He had also heard of Shen Qingyang's ability, and he also didn't expect Shen Qingyang's sword to be so fast.

The two people in front of him were unexpected everywhere.

Heaven is going to destroy him.

But the mother obviously taught him, the mother said that he couldn't believe in fate, the mother said that he should fight, the mother said that he deserved the best in the world, and the mother said that this Yan Wangfu should have been his.

The door of the main house was opened again, and Jiu'er and the county lord of Changle walked out carrying a round chair, and Du Zhe limped behind.

Old Lord Yan, who was wrapped in a brocade quilt, sat in the round chair, although his face was very bad, his eyes were open.

He kept looking at Du Xin, his eyes were as cold as ice blades.

Du Xin shook a few times, and his legs fell to the ground.

Zheng Long and a large group of his subordinates knelt down in unison, but none of them dared to defend or beg for mercy.

The round chair was placed on the steps, and Mei Xue and Shen Qingyang took two steps back and stood on either side of the round chair.

The old prince's eyes moved from Du Xin to Zheng Long and the others, and his voice was not high, but he was still not angry:

"Everyone go and get fifty military sticks, and then twenty taels of silver to recuperate from the wounded, and do whatever they should do when they are healed."

Zheng Long and his subordinates kowtowed together to thank him, and retreated out of the main courtyard with his weapons.

The old prince's eyes returned to Du Xin's body again, and he said after a long time:

"As long as you are willing to tell the location of Du Xin's body, I will leave you a whole corpse."

In the cold weather, Du Xin was covered with sweat, and suddenly got up from the ground and laughed wildly and said:

"He has long been crushed by me, and he will always be a lonely ghost. I am the eldest grandson of this palace, why can't you see me? Why don't you treat me and my mother as human beings? ”

In the main hall, Zhu, who was leaning on a round chair, covered his chest violently and spat out a mouthful of blood, splashing the clothes on his body red.

Du Xin kept talking nonsense, shouting and scolding while running around the yard frantically.

Everyone looked at him quietly, the old prince closed his eyes, and only opened his eyes again for a long time and said to Shen Qingyang:

"Kill him!"

But before his words fell, Du Xin, who looked crazy, flew up the moment he approached the courtyard wall and jumped out of the courtyard at a very fast speed.

However, Shen Qingyang was once again faster than Du Xin, and as soon as Du Xin's right leg reached the wall, the sword in Shen Qingyang's hand was already pierced in his back.

Du Xin fell to the ground, Mei Xue walked over to look at him, and then walked back to the old prince and said:

"It's not critical, just stop the bleeding."

The old prince began to cough violently, but still waved his hand and said:

"No need."

Shen Qingyang nodded, turned his head and glanced at Liu Qi behind him.

Liu Qi responded, walked over and dragged Du Xin out of the yard.

It was already late at night, Mei Xue was still dispensing the antidote in the pharmacy, and Du Zhe limped in.

Mei Xue had already treated Du Zhe's wounds in the evening, and when she saw him come in, she looked up and asked him:

"Is there anything uncomfortable? How's Madame? ”

Du Zhe shook his head, sat down in the round chair next to the table, and said:

"I'm fine, my aunt is finally asleep, and someone is guarding her."

Mei Xue nodded and continued to be busy with the things in her hands.

Du Zhe looked at her for a while before whispering:

"When he came back, his grandfather had been busy in the barracks, and he didn't come back for almost half a year, and after he came back, he began to get sick intermittently.

My aunt didn't care about anything, and she didn't leave the Buddha hall once for ten days and a half months. If only I could have grown a little longer, I wouldn't have made him ......."

Mei Xue glanced up at Du Zhe, shook her head and said:

"The second son must not blame himself so much, he is already very similar to the prince, and he deliberately grinds his skin and bones, and it is not easy to recognize it."

Du Zhe smiled bitterly, lowered his head and stroked the jade pendant on his belt and said:

"It's a shame that you and Brother Shen are here, otherwise my grandfather and I are afraid that we won't survive the New Year."

His voice was so low that Mei Xue could barely hear him talking.

Mei Xue has been engrossed in what she is doing, not only did she not hear what Du Zhe said at the end, but she didn't even notice when he left the pharmacy.

At dawn, Jiu'er came over to bring food to Mei Xue and said to her:

"Girl, I just ran into the second son when I entered the yard."

Mei Xue had just prepared the antidote, and when she heard Jiu'er's words, she thought of Du Zhe again, and couldn't help but pause.

Wasn't Du Zhe gone a long time ago? Why did you leave the yard at this time?

But there was no time to think about anything else, Mei Xue hurriedly ate something and went to the courtyard of Old Prince Yan with the antidote.
