Shen Yuexi didn't finish his words, and was secretly clicked dumb by Taiwei Zhou's subordinates, and he couldn't speak at all.

Shen Yuexi opened her mouth to find that she suddenly lost her voice, and her heart was flustered, but in the end, she could only utter meaningless syllables.

She panicked and wanted to signal to the emperor with her eyes that the real culprit was actually Taiwei Zhou.

However, the emperor did not look at her squarely, and his cold and deep gaze fell on Shen Yubai with full scrutiny.

"Your Majesty, what happened, please let the Emperor know."

Shen Yubai heard that the prince had disappeared in the past two days, and he was also doing his best to help find his whereabouts, but he didn't understand why he suddenly became the one who kidnapped the prince.

The emperor was silent, and his gaze fell in the direction of the dungeon.

If the whereabouts of the prince are really found in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Shen Yubai will never be able to stay.

"Back to the emperor, we found the prince in the water prison!"

A guard commander hurried forward to report, followed by a few of his men, who carefully brought the prince out of prison.

"How is that possible-"

When Shen Yubai saw the crown prince, his face was flustered.

He obviously investigated the whereabouts of the prince everywhere, and there were no clues at all, how could he appear in the Prime Minister's Mansion?

He suddenly saw Taiwei Zhou beside the emperor, and saw a smug smile in his eyes.

Shen Yubai immediately understood the cause and effect of the whole thing.

He was calculated!

The person who calculated him was this Taiwei Zhou, who had always befriended him in the past, and he really knew people and faces, but he didn't know his heart!

But Shen Yubai knew very well that even if he knew who was behind the scenes, and could not provide evidence to convict Zhou Taiwei, the emperor would never believe his words.

The accompanying imperial physician stepped forward to diagnose the prince.

This imperial doctor is also an accomplice of Taiwei Zhou, and he said that the prince's injury was very serious.

The emperor was so angry that he smoked and shouted angrily: "Shen Yubai plotted to kill the prince, his crime should be punished, he will be sent to the prison, and he will be beheaded on a certain day!" ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen is wronged!"

All of Shen Yubai's words were regarded as quibbles by the emperor, and he was quickly taken into custody and imprisoned.

The emperor's people left the prime minister's mansion with the crown prince in a majestic manner, and Zhou Taiwei was named prime minister the next day because of his meritorious service in finding the prince.

The Prime Minister's Mansion has a new owner.

Zhou Taiwei was dissatisfied with the low-key and simple decoration of the mansion, which made people decorate it on a large scale, and soon became magnificent, revealing luxury everywhere.

Shen Yuerong, as a great hero of Taiwei Zhou, couldn't wait to find the door after he was promoted to prime minister.

"Prime Minister, you are in a high position now, you can't forget what I helped you do, if it weren't for me, how could you have framed Shen Yubai so easily."

Shen Yuerong completely ignored Shen Yubai, who was imprisoned in the prison, and proudly invited credit in front of the new prime minister.

Prime Minister Zhou did not treat Shen Yuerong badly, touched his beard, shook his wide sleeves, and laughed and said that he would accept Shen Yuerong as a righteous daughter.

At first, Shen Yuerong felt a little dissatisfied, but when she heard that she could enjoy all the glory and wealth, she immediately nodded and accepted the proposal.

Externally, Prime Minister Zhou Cheng said that Shen Yuerong did not go along with Shen Yubai, but instead killed his relatives and assisted him to find His Royal Highness the Crown Prince together.

Those who originally had objections had no opinion now, and nodded and flattered.

There is just one thing that makes Prime Minister Zhou Cheng quite uneasy.

Shen Yuexi, who should have been caught together that day, disappeared mysteriously in place at the critical moment and fled.

This dead girl is also a person who knows the truth, this fish that slipped through the net ran out, if he really finds some evidence, then the glory and wealth he has won so hard will be ruined in the hands of this girl!

Shen Yuerong didn't know these worries in Taiwei Zhou's heart.

She was still thinking about the treasure trove behind the forbidden land.

At that time, there were many snakes in the cave, and she did not dare to enter them rashly.

Last time, the fire burned the forbidden land to the ground, and those snakes must have either died or fled.

Now she can go and find those treasures in peace!

It's all hers!

Shen Yuerong didn't mention how happy she laughed, compared with Shen Yubai, who was tortured in the prison, she was celebrating a festive festival first.

The other side.

Shen Yuexi hid in a temporarily safe place to prevent being found by Prime Minister Zhou's people.

This time, she was able to escape, and it seemed to have something to do with the Gu worm in her body.

But what the specific situation is, Shen Yuexi is not clear.

She guessed that there might be the wizard's help.

Thinking of this, Shen Yuexi couldn't help but cheer up, if there was a wizard's help, maybe he would be able to rescue his eldest brother......

Otherwise, she would not be able to do anything on her own.

Shen Yuexi went to the place where he had met the wizard before, but he didn't find any trace of him.

She reluctantly sneaked into the forbidden place in the back mountain, where she could temporarily settle down.

When she arrived at the forbidden place, Shen Yuexi unexpectedly saw Shen Yuerong lying dying in the cave.

Although she was surprised in her heart, Shen Yuexi still walked forward quickly and walked to Shen Yuerong's side, "What's wrong with you?" ”

Shen Yuerong's breath was uneven, her lips were purple, and her face was pale, which was a symptom of poisoning.

Looking down, Shen Yuexi saw an obvious tooth mark on her bare wrist.

It was bitten by a snake.

"Help, save me......"

Shen Yuerong begged for help with a dying breath.

After entering the forbidden land, she thought that those poisonous snakes were almost burned to death, who knows, there are even fish that have slipped through the net.

The vipers who survived were no different from the vengeful messengers who had returned from hell, and they surrounded Shen Yuerong, the culprit, and poisoned her, dying in agony.

Shen Yuexi remembered that she was soft-hearted and didn't kill Shen Yuerong with a dagger, and now that there was an opportunity in front of her, she could leave regardless of Shen Yuerong's life or death.

But...... Now that he is alone, if he can use this to persuade Shen Yuerong to help, will Shen Yubai have a glimmer of life?

"I can save you one more time, but you have to grant me one request."

Shen Yuerong was still a little conscious, and when she heard this, she couldn't wait to nod her head, and said weakly: "I promise you, you can find a way to save me quickly!" ”

Shen Yuexi sucked out snake venom for Shen Yuerong, and found antidote herbs to apply it to her.

"Soon you'll be fine."

Taking advantage of Shen Yuerong's sobriety, Shen Yuexi put forward her own request, "Yuerong, you can't be wrong again and again, this time you help me rescue the eldest brother together, expose the real murderer, and write off the past." ”

This time, Shen Yuexi's attitude was tough, and she no longer compromised and soft-hearted towards Shen Yuerong in the past.

Shen Yuerong was taken aback by Shen Yuexi's posture, and her heart was full of resentment.

Those snakes may have been instructed by Shen Yuexi to bite her, otherwise why didn't they bite Shen Yuexi before?!

But Shen Yuerong was afraid that those poisonous snakes would come back, so she had to pretend to cooperate: "I know." ”

Shen Yuexi asked her to find a way to confess to Prime Minister Zhou in front of the emperor.

Shen Yuerong agreed.

As a result, as soon as she turned her head to the emperor, she immediately changed her hexagram.
