Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain
Chapter 738 A battle of wits and courage
"About half an hour." Murray answered and glanced at several suspicious figures outside.
"The Queen's men are following us again."
Ever since Si Ruochen was named King of Dust, the followers of Queen Lian have been hunting him down, as if they were determined to get rid of him.
Si Ruochen smiled bitterly: "I have to say, her determination is admirable."
"Haifeng." Si Ruochen called softly, and a man with a mysterious aura appeared immediately.
"Your Majesty the Holy King." Haifeng bowed respectfully.
"Go and see who is there. If Ding Tu is still leading the team, you will know how to deal with it."
Since Ding Tu has the Heart-to-Heart Gu in his body, he cannot be touched for the time being, but there is no need to do so for others.
"My subordinate understands."
"It's time for us to set off. We have rested enough. Otherwise, it will be too late to settle accounts with that little rascal Jiang Xue."
While Haifeng was clearing the road, Si Ruochen had already stood up and took Mo Rui on horseback, and the two of them galloped towards Yujing City side by side.
At this time, Jiang Xue was carefully checking Fu Dong's dowry list. She had specially prepared two dowries, one in memory of Xiaochun.
Suddenly, she felt a chill running down her spine and her scalp felt numb.
What's going on? Why do I suddenly have a bad feeling?
"Princess, what's wrong with you?" Fu Dong noticed her abnormality and turned around to ask with concern.
Fu Dong looked exceptionally beautiful in her bright red wedding dress, with a hint of shyness on her face.
The golden butterflies on the phoenix crown swayed gently with her movements, as if they came alive.
"nothing."
Jiang Xue looked at the picturesque Fu Dong in front of her, smiled and shook her head: "I just got distracted suddenly."
She looked Fudong up and down and nodded with satisfaction: "My Fudong is so beautiful."
It was the first time that Fudong wore such bright clothes, and he was a little uncomfortable at first.
Looking at her beautiful figure in the bronze mirror, she was stunned. A faint blush appeared on her cheeks, making her even more charming and beautiful.
Thinking of the scene when she would soon meet Qing Feng, her eyes were filled with happiness.
"Your Highness, the tablet of Miss Xiaochun is here."
A maid came over carefully holding Xiaochun's tablet and gently placed it in front of the dowry prepared for her.
Jiang Xue waved her hand to let the maid leave, leaving only her and Fu Dong in the room. The two stared at the names on the spirit tablet, their eyes filled with sadness.
We had originally planned to hold a wedding for both girls together, but now, one of them is no longer alive.
"Xiaochun, Tieyi will marry you soon, are you happy?"
The breeze blew up the red veil hanging on the hanger, which was Xiaochun's. The veil danced in the wind for a while, and finally fell gently on Xiaochun's spirit tablet.
It seemed that at this moment, they saw Xiaochun, half wearing a red veil and smiling.
"Princess!"
Fu Dong looked at this scene and tears of emotion welled up in his eyes.
Xiaochun seemed to hear her inner voice, which was a silent joy.
"As long as she is happy."
There was a hint of sob in Jiang Xue's voice. She walked forward and gently stroked Xiaochun's spirit tablet, with a gratified smile on her face.
At this time, a maid came to report: "Your Highness, the Emperor asks you to go to the Imperial Study."
The master and servant had just been sharing their innermost thoughts, but after hearing the news, Jiang Xue was filled with doubts.
She exchanged a glance with Fudong, then arranged for someone to help Fudong count the dowry, while she herself walked towards the imperial study.
"Yun Che, what happened?"
As soon as she entered the study, Jiang Xue noticed that Si Ruochen and Mo Rui were also there, and Xiao Zhan was looking at her with a helpless smile.
"Brother!"
Facing Si Ruochen's eyes, Jiang Xue felt a familiar chill.
"Do you still remember that I am your senior brother?"
Si Ruochen raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and walked towards her step by step with a bit of teasing.
"Brother Si."
Xiao Zhan noticed his wife's pleading look, smiled and shook his head, then walked to her side to protect her.
"Brother, let's talk nicely. Jiang Xue is pregnant now and cannot be provoked."
Si Ruochen was stunned for a moment, and looked at Jiang Xue carefully, especially her flat belly, which seemed unbelievable.
Si Ruochen's eyes lingered on Jiang Xue's slightly bulging belly, and his heart was full of doubts. It seemed that she had not been pregnant for long.
"She's pregnant again? How can I argue with her?"
"Do boys and girls know?"
He talked to himself, his thoughts drifting away, thinking about how many gifts he should prepare next.
Seeing this, Mo Rui walked forward unhappily and pulled Si Ruochen into his arms, as if he didn't like seeing him so focused on Jiang Xue.
Xiao Zhan also didn't like others staring at his lover, so he gently protected Jiang Xue behind him, blocking Si Ruochen's sight.
"Brother, the child is less than three months old."
Jiang Xue chuckled, thinking that Xiao Zhan's behavior was very cute. Then she poked her head out from behind him and said to Si Ruochen, "Brother, are you angry about the Tongxin Gu?"
"You still know about this, give me the antidote quickly!" Si Ruochen urged.
Thinking that his beloved junior sister, whom he had loved for many years, was now pregnant, Si Ruochen's anger gradually subsided.
As long as she can remove the Tongxin Gu, she will no longer be held responsible. Jiang Xue took out the antidote obediently and handed it over respectfully, just like she did when she made a mistake as a child.
"Please accept it, brother!"
Looking at her playful appearance, Si Ruochen's anger had long since disappeared.
"You, do you know how much suffering this Tongxin Gu has caused me?"
After taking the antidote, he gently tapped Jiang Xue's forehead, remembering the experience of almost losing his life. Fortunately, Murray arrived in time and saved them both.
"When did you put the poison on me?"
Si Ruochen asked curiously, still unable to figure out when he was infected with this poison.
Jiang Xue hesitated for a moment and shrank back. It was a prank she had played a long time ago when she had just learned how to make a Gu. She had secretly planted it while her senior brother was taking a nap.
She had almost forgotten about this matter until Ding Tu threatened her senior brother's life. If she told her senior brother the truth, she would be severely reprimanded.
After weighing the pros and cons, she decided to remain silent.
"When we were making Gu, some small Gu might have escaped. Brother, you remember that we always liked to play with these small Gu, and being bitten by them was commonplace."
Si Ruochen thought about it and felt that this explanation was quite reasonable.
Perhaps it was during those naughty days that the seed was planted inadvertently.
In order to prevent Si Ruochen from suspecting that she was lying, she deliberately changed the topic to the various naughty things they did together when they were young.
Murray listened very attentively, he had always been eager to understand Si Ruochen more deeply.
Xiao Zhan saw through her little trick, smiled and remained silent, staying by her side lovingly and listening to her quietly.
Si Ruochen also shared his experiences of the past few months with Jiang Xue, telling her about his past battles of wits and courage with Queen Lian and others in Yingxia, as well as the process of his recognition with Lu Quan.
