The imperial concubine bows down to me

"Xue Jiang, who do you think is coming?" While speaking, Liu Shuyan brought Xue Ruoyu in front of him, so that Xue Jiang could see her clearly when he tilted his head.

Sure enough, when Xue Jiang heard this, she subconsciously looked to the side, and her face immediately turned blue.He quickly sat up from the ground, and because he was wearing handcuffs, he walked to the cell door at his fastest speed with some difficulty, and took a closer look at Xue Ruoyu.Seeing that although her hair and clothes were a little messy, there was no blood on her body, and she was not wearing any prison equipment, Xue Jiang was relieved and stepped back a little.

It's just that he doesn't believe it. It's clear that everything has been arranged. It's not a problem for Xue Ruoyu to escape from the city and hide her name. Why does she appear here again at this time?How did Liu Shuyan catch her?

"Sister, why are you here?" The implication is, why have you been arrested again?

"I knocked that person out, and I ran back by myself." Responding, Xue Ruoyu seemed to have returned to the little girl who loved to act like a baby in front of her brother. Jiangfa asked, "Brother~ I haven't asked you yet, what happened to you tonight, why did you suddenly..." At this point, she choked up and couldn't bear to continue talking.

Unexpectedly, Xue Jiang, who has always been extremely gentle to Xue Ruoyu, suddenly went crazy after hearing Xue Ruoyu's words, and yelled at her: "What are you doing back here! I told you to go, what are you doing back here—— "

Xue Ruoyu, who had never seen Xue Jiang like this before, was obviously frightened immediately.She opened her mouth, unable to believe that Xue Jiang was so angry at her because she said that she ran back.

"Brother, what's wrong with you..." She was a little wronged, and even felt like crying.

Originally, Xue Jiang's veins were bulging and his face was flushed because of the two roars just now, but when he saw Xue Ruoyu's expression, he seemed to be so angry that he suddenly softened again.He took another two steps back, couldn't bear to look at Xue Ruoyu, so he covered his eyes with both hands, and said with a little sob: "What are you doing back here...you can go..."

"Brother..." Seeing Xue Jiang's appearance, maybe it was really a bond of flesh and blood, Xue Ruoyu couldn't help trembling, and the tears from the corners of his eyes could no longer hold back.

"Okay, I'm not here to hear you brothers and sisters crying for me and I crying for you." As he spoke, Liu Shuyan pulled Xue Ruoyu back a little, and then turned his face to stare at Xue Jiang, and asked sharply, "Xue Jiang , I will ask you again, will you give the antidote to the poison His Royal Highness is suffering from, or not?"

Seeing that Xue Jiang didn't speak for a long time, Liu Shuyan raised his voice and asked again: "Are you going to give it or not?!"

Even if Liu Shuyan said so, Xue Jiang didn't want to pay attention to Liu Shuyan at all.Xue Ruoyu stepped back, and he also took a few steps back, looking at the dark and pitch-black roof, tears streaming down his eyes in an instant: "Sister, I tried to be smart for my brother's sake, I'm sorry... If there is a next life, Brother, I must protect you well and never let you suffer any harm..." At the end of his speech, his voice had already started to become a little hoarse.He knew that he was bound to die, but how much he hoped that his sister would survive.

It's just that this is already impossible, from the moment Xue Ruoyu decided to turn around, it was already impossible.He didn't believe Liu Shuyan and Shen Zhi. He felt that Xue Ruoyu could become that kind of person in Xue Ruoyu's mouth. Even if he told Shen Zhi's antidote, Xue Ruoyu would probably die.

"Xue Jiang, I will ask you one last time, the antidote, will you give it or not?"

After a few breaths, Xue Jiang still didn't respond, so Liu Shuyan had no choice but to feel sorry for Xue Ruoyu.

Just now Xue Jiang, Xue Ruoyu and others didn't notice that Liu Shuyan's right hand was buried in his sleeve all the time.Now she waved her right hand towards Xue Ruoyu, and everyone realized that she was holding a hidden weapon in her right hand, and this hidden weapon happened to be the octagonal dart on Shen Zhi's arm that Xue Jiang had mentioned just now—the octagonal dart with intractable venom.

The poison dart also pierced Xue Ruoyu's arm, she groaned in pain, and immediately fell backwards.

Xue Jiang also noticed the situation outside, and he immediately wanted to take a few steps forward, but because of the fetters, he tripped and knelt in front of the cell door without paying attention.He didn't care about the pain, but when he saw the poison dart on Xue Ruoyu's arm, he really wanted to rush out and cut Liu Shuyan into pieces.

But so what?Now he is just a prisoner with no power to restrain the chicken.

After Xue Ruoyu fell down, Liu Shuyan didn't help her up, and even ignored her at all. Although the people around thought she was a little pitiful, they didn't dare to act rashly without Liu Shuyan's order.

Only then did Xue Ruoyu fully understand that Liu Shuyan didn't come to let her go or even come to see her.The reason why Liu Shuyan came to this prison tonight was because Shen Zhi was poisoned by Xue Jiang, so she wanted to use her as a threat to force Xue Jiang to hand over the antidote.

Although Xue Ruoyu herself did not support or understand what Xue Jiang did tonight, Liu Shuyan's actions made her feel chilled.

She didn't know why, after reading a few pages of the storybook after taking a bath, everyone turned into someone she didn't know.Is this real, or is it just her dream?

If possible, she hopes that all this is really just a dream of hers.She constricted her throat, endured the severe pain in her arm, stared at Liu Shuyan, her tears stopped, but she couldn't say anything for a while.

"Xue Jiang, it's up to you whether you want to talk about the antidote or not." Liu Shuyan stepped forward a few steps and approached the prison door, and as she spoke, she squatted down and looked at Xue Jiang's level. He said calmly, "However, if you don't give it, I will let you watch your favorite sister die of poison with your own eyes, and then let someone kill her body one by one. Of course, if you can't bear to see In such a situation, if you choose to end your own life before then, the people in the entire capital will be the ones watching your sister die from poisoning and Ling Chi's corpse."

"You..." At this time, Xue Jiang's eyes were completely red, and he finally understood what the most poisonous woman's heart is.He believed that since a person like Liu Shuyan could say that, she would be able to do the same if she was in a hurry.

"However, if you hand over the antidote, Xue Ruoyu can be regarded as a meritorious service. I know that she has not participated in your affairs, and I can let her die. As for whether you believe it... There is still half an hour, you Think about it carefully." As he spoke, Liu Shuyan frowned, and after looking at Xue Jiang for a few more breaths, he slowly stood up, and then turned to tell the jailer next to him, "Come here, lock Xue Ruoyu into prison. Go to the cell opposite Xue Jiang, and the two of you will never be allowed to touch each other."

After saying that, the jailer was about to agree, but Xue Jiang interrupted him, gritted his teeth and said, "Wait!"

"Oh?" Hearing this, Liu Shuyan's mouth curled into a meaningful smile, which Xue Ruoyu had never seen before.She turned around again, stared at Xue Jiang condescendingly, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Now are you willing to tell me where the antidote is?"

Xue Jiang looked at Xue Ruoyu, who was silent but burst into tears, closed her eyes and lowered her head again, with severe pain in her heart and extreme hesitation.Liu Shuyan didn't force her, just stood there and looked at him without saying a word, waiting for his answer.

Finally, Xue Jiang still couldn't bear her sister being treated like that, and couldn't stand Liu Shuyan's threat, so she compromised.He was sorry for Shen Tianhe's promotion and failed Shen Tai's expectations. Now, he can no longer be sorry for his sister.

"My son-in-law's mansion, in my room, the largest wooden cabinet has a hidden drawer at the bottom left, and there is a small red medicine bottle in it. The pills in it can delay the onset of poison. Within a few days, find the grass without boundaries, and add velvet antler ointment to it to completely detoxify."

Now, the big stone in Liu Shuyan's heart was finally let go.Although this boundless grass only grows in extremely steep places, and its quantity is rare, but fortunately, she remembered that there happened to be this medicine in the Tibetan Medicine Pavilion built by her master for her mother, and the velvet antler was also in the palace There will be.Seven days is more than enough time, she only needs to go back to the master's gate to get the boundless grass, and Shen Zhi's poison can be cured.

Seeing Liu Shuyan hearing the words, Xue Jiang turned around and wanted to leave, but he quickly stopped him: "Wait..."

"What else is there?" Liu Shuyan stopped in his tracks.

"The noble concubine." When calling Liu Shuyan, Xue Jiang bit the words very hard, as if she hated her very much.But he had to bow his head under the eaves, and his tone finally softened, "I know that my wife and children are bleeding from the royal family. Even if I rebel, they will be fine. But... I I beg my mother, you must abide by what you just said, just treat her as my sister who has committed a crime, and spare her life." Just now, Xue Jiang ignored Liu Shuyan because she didn't believe her, but the matter has come to this point, and he doesn't believe it. no solution anymore.This is the last chance, and he doesn't want to miss it.

After listening to Xue Jiang's words, Liu Shuyan didn't respond, but silently walked to Xue Ruoyu's side, bent down and picked her up from the ground.Before leaving, she finally parted her thin lips lightly, like a promise, and said plainly but slightly solemnly: "I will."

Liu Shuyan carried Xue Ruoyu away from the prison, and ordered one of the black-clothed men he met on the way to go to the son-in-law's mansion to get the medicine, and then took her to the East Palace where Shen Zhi and Du Qinning were still there. side went.Xue Ruoyu was held in her arms, she had no strength to struggle, but she kept her eyes closed and refused to look at Liu Shuyan, and she also suppressed the pain in her arm and remained silent.

Compared with Shen Zhi at that time, the residual venom on the octagonal dart was much less, so the medicinal properties on it also weakened a lot.In addition, Liu Shuyan didn't hit too hard, and the poison dart didn't stab too deeply. After about a quarter of an hour, Xue Ruoyu was still awake, but he was weak all over.

"Ruoyu, I'm sorry." Although it was an apology, Xue Ruoyu couldn't hear the regret in Liu Shuyan's words. At most, she only had some guilt towards her, "Only by doing this, I can save Your Highness. That’s the only way to do it, there’s no other way.”

The author has something to say: so ruthless.
