Conan's physique? The Crown Princess is involved in a murder case again

Xu Xiuzhu's face turned blue after being scolded by Chen, and she glared at her as if she wanted to eat her alive, and she retorted angrily.

"Ms. Chen, look at your arrogant and bad temper. I have endured it for decades! If it weren't for the fact that you still have some value to use, do you think I would have tolerated you until now? Don't forget that your general's mansion is now a ruined family with no one to support it, so you should stop putting on airs!"

"Although our General's Mansion has fallen into decline, we will never be a lamb to be slaughtered!"

Chen looked at Xu Xiuzhu fearlessly, sneered and refuted, then turned around and grabbed Xu Xingyin's hand.

"Jiaojiao, don't compromise for your mother. These demons have caused our General's Mansion to suffer injustice for so many years. They must not go unpunished!"

Xu Xiuzhu obviously did not expect Chen to be so resolute. He waved his sleeves and said sternly.

"That's enough, Chen! If you cooperate today and wait for Jiaojiao to hand over the evidence, I will spare your life. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Xu Xiuzhu's ruthlessness made Chen pale, but it also strengthened her determination.

"Xu Xiuzhu, we have been husband and wife for so many years, do you really not care about it anymore?"

Chen asked this question so softly that Xu Xiuzhu was stunned for a moment and then lowered his voice.

mutual affection?

How could there be no affection between him and Chen?

However, these relationships are mixed with too much intrigue and weighing of pros and cons, and Xu Xiuzhu now can no longer distinguish them.

"I……"

No one expected that before Xu Xiuzhu could finish his answer, Chen suddenly jumped up, snatched the dagger from Xu Xingyin's hand, and stabbed Xu Xiuzhu fiercely.

Xu Xiuzhu didn't expect Chen to do this. He was unable to dodge and was stabbed in the chest by the dagger.

"what--"

Xu Xiuzhu screamed, covered his wound, and looked at Chen in disbelief. "You...you actually..."

Chen's eyes were red as she watched her fair skin being stained red by the blood spurted out by Xu Xiuzhu. However, there was no fear in her eyes, only raging anger burning fiercely.

"Xu Xiuzhu, you framed my general's mansion and caused my father, relatives and friends to die unjustly. Today I will avenge them!"

Xu Xiuzhu's face turned pale with pain and he slowly spat out a mouthful of blood. He glared at Chen angrily.

"Chen...if I die, you won't be able to live."

"As long as I can clear the name of the General's Mansion, why should I fear death?"

Chen's eyes were determined as he clenched the dagger with both hands, and he thrust it forward suddenly, allowing the dagger to penetrate deeper.

Xu Xiuzhu suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face became paler and paler.

Xu Xingyin, who witnessed all this, was so shocked that he screamed and rushed forward to hug Chen.

"Mother!"

After doing all this, Chen had lost all her strength. She raised her hand with difficulty to wipe away Xu Xingyin's tears and patted the back of her hand soothingly.

"Jiaojiao, don't cry, mother is fine. You didn't grow up with mother since you were little, and mother often wondered what my Jiaojiao would look like. But since you came back to Beijing, mother is very glad every day that she sent you back to the general's mansion. Because of this, my Jiaojiao has grown up to be so upright, handsome, bright and beautiful now.

Your father's fault, or the fall of the general's mansion, is ultimately due to your mother's blindness in marrying the wrong man. Since this mistake never began, I will end it.

Jiaojiao, I can sacrifice my mother's life, but the innocence of the General's Mansion cannot be tarnished. You, don't compromise for your mother, just insist on doing what you think is right in your heart."

Although Xu Xiuzhu was unable to fight back at this time, he still glared at Chen fiercely, as if he wanted to pull out her tendons and bones.

Xu Xingyin had not expected that his mother, who had been gentle and kind for half her life, would do such a strong and decisive thing.

Looking at the blood that Chen spit out due to poisoning, Xu Xingyin felt panicked and couldn't help but burst into tears.

At this moment, Xu Xingyin's mind was blank and he had no idea what to do. He could only rely on instinct and hug Chen's weak body tightly.

"No, there must be other ways, there must be..."

Chen, however, did not hold out any hope and smiled gently.

"Jiaojiao, mother has no regrets."

At this moment, Xu Xiuzhu, who was already dying, had crawled to the mother and daughter using his hands and feet. He used all his strength to pull the dagger out of his chest and stabbed Xu Xingyin fiercely.

"Bitch, I will never let you succeed!"

At this moment, Xu Xingyin was completely defenseless and could only stare with his eyes wide open in shock, watching the dagger coming towards him.

Just as the dagger was about to pierce Xu Xingyin's chest, suddenly -

A sound of breaking air suddenly rang out, and then Xu Xiuzhu's wrist was hit by a hidden weapon, and the dagger immediately deviated from its direction.

"My Lord, those who repeatedly offend me, this life is gone!"

A cold voice was heard. Xu Xingyin looked up and saw Jing Zhichen in a white robe with golden bamboo patterns.

Following behind him was Xu Xingyin's brother, Xu Chaoge, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and who looked anxious.

After Jing Zhichen finished speaking, the East Palace Black Tiger Cavalry who followed closely behind him rushed forward and controlled Xu Xiuzhu.

Jing Zhichen quickly walked up to Xu Xingyin, looked her up and down, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she was fine.

"Jiaojiao, are you okay?"

Hearing this, Xu Xingyin suddenly came back to his senses. Seeing that Jing Zhichen seemed to have found his backbone, he grabbed Jing Zhichen's sleeve and his voice was choked with sobs when he spoke.

"Your Highness, my mother has been poisoned, please save her..."

"Okay, don't worry." Jing Zhichen touched Xu Xingyin's head with pity, and then called out, "Huaigu."

As soon as Jing Zhichen finished speaking, Du Huaigu immediately stepped forward to treat Chen.

After taking Chen's pulse, Du Huaigu frowned and gave her a pill to protect her heart meridian. He then used silver needles to prick her acupuncture points to temporarily stabilize the poison.

After doing all this, Du Huaigu spoke.

"This poison is not difficult, it's just that the poisoning lasted too long. I have temporarily suppressed the toxicity. If you want to completely detoxify it, you need to carefully treat it with precious medicinal materials for more than a month."

Jing Zhichen and Xu Xingyin then breathed a sigh of relief and said in unison.

"Thank you."

Du Huaigu did not take credit for it, he just nodded and left.

Xu Xingyin slowly squatted down, looked straight at Xu Xiuzhu who was pinned to the ground by the Black Tiger Cavalry and could not move, and said calmly.

"Xu Xiuzhu, you lose. I will expose all the crimes you committed in the past, and let everyone in the world know how vicious your heart is hidden under your hypocritical face!"

Xu Xiuzhu laughed when he heard this, "Really, Jiaojiao? Your father has been in the officialdom for decades. Do you think that you can be worry-free just because you have detoxified your mother? Hahaha! How could I only make one preparation! As early as when you chose to save your mother, you had already lost! The evidence in the hands of that idiot Zou Lizhen must have been burned by now. You have no evidence to accuse me anymore, never again!"
