Chen Bei drank some water and the weakness in his body lessened.
"Why was I poisoned?" Chen Bei frowned and looked at Shi Sheng. He did not doubt her. If she wanted to kill him, why would she use such a troublesome method?
"There's poison on the imperial jade seal. You were poisoned when you touched it."
"…" Imperial jade seal? Chen Bei was puzzled. "Don't you use it every day? Why are you fine and I'm poisoned? "
Shi Sheng's smile was a little evil. "Who told you that I use the imperial jade seal every day? Does your family I use the imperial jade seal every day? "
Chen Bei clearly did not know. He shook his head blankly.
Shi Sheng thought of the information Ling Yi gave him and regretted what he said just now.
Chen Bei was the seventh son of the Emperor of Shu, but the seventh was an unknown number in Shu. Therefore, even Chen Bei's mother and him were not favored by the Emperor of Shu. It was almost equivalent to being under house arrest in the Shu Imperial Palace.
Anyway, his daughter-in-law's background could only be described with one word — miserable!
There was no worst, only worse!
Did this guy really go on the wrong channel!?
"The imperial jade seal is only used when writing imperial edicts and when necessary. Usually, there's no need to use it. I only wrote an imperial edict to confer you a title, but I didn't stamp it at that time." The imperial jade seal was not where she wrote the imperial edict. She found it troublesome, so she did not stamp it. Anyway, no one else could see the imperial edict.
"I already said that it's not fun, but you insisted on playing with it. You almost lost your life, didn't you?"
"…" The imperial edict was not stamped? And how would he know that it was poisoned. "What about the imperial jade seal?"
"I blew it up." Shi Sheng said it casually, as if it was an ordinary item and not a priceless imperial jade seal.
Chen Bei's face turned pale. "You … are not lying to me?"
"Why would I lie to you? There are so many witnesses."
"Why did you blow up the imperial jade seal?" Chen Bei's voice trembled and his eyes were filled with disbelief. That was the imperial jade seal. How could it blow up?
Shi Sheng frowned slightly. "Why, is it very important to you?"
This was the imperial jade seal of Feng Luan. Why were so many people fighting over it? Was it that valuable?
"Your Majesty has never heard of the legend of the Snow Country's treasure?"
A cold voice sounded from outside the window. Shi Sheng's eyes suddenly flashed with a dangerous light. He quietly held Chen Bei's hand. Chen Bei struggled for a moment, but Shi Sheng took the opportunity to clasp his hand between his fingers.
Chen Bei could not struggle anymore. His cheeks were burning as he looked at the window.
At this moment, the window was pushed open, and a petite figure jumped in from outside. Her gaze immediately fell on Shi Sheng and Chen Bei's interlocked hands, and the look in her eyes clearly changed.
Shi Sheng almost exploded.
F * * k her grandpa! The female lead snuck in and she didn't even notice it!
Don't tell I that the female lead's Qing Gong is so good that she can walk on water without leaving a trace. It's definitely because of the plot's help that she can quietly approach me.
How infuriating!
Yue Ruliu forced himself to look away. "Seventh Prince, are you alright?"
"Nothing." Chen Bei did not look at Yue Ruliu.
Shi Sheng leaned to the side and stood between the two of them. This female lead was obviously coveting his wife. Fortunately, his wife didn't show any abnormal behavior.
"Guards!"
Yue Ruliu's eyes widened. "Wait a minute! I'm not here to cause trouble for you. I'm here to exchange the Seventh Prince with you. "
"Exchange? What are you going to exchange for? "My female lead is amazing. Why must you take I's wife away? What are your intentions!
Damn it, kill her!
"Your antidote." Yue Ruliu suddenly became much more confident. "The poison you were previously poisoned with has not been completely cured. It's only in the dormant stage now. Once the dormant stage is over, the poison will act up again."
"You poisoned I."
Yue Ruliu shook his head. "Your Majesty, I admit that I don't have the ability to bypass the layers of protection of the palace to poison you."
"Then you know about me being poisoned? And the antidote? "
"Of course I have my sources of information. Your Majesty, how about exchanging the Seventh Prince for your antidote?" Yue Ruliu proposed another condition.
"No." Shi Sheng did not even frown. "Nothing can compare to him."
Chen Bei's heart trembled again, and his fingers unconsciously tightened around her.
Nothing can compare to him …
Including her own life?
"Including your own life?" Yue Ruliu's voice overlapped with Chen Bei's thoughts.
He instinctively looked at Shi Sheng, as if waiting for his answer.
"No."
Yue Ruliu seemed to be relieved. If she answered yes, she really did not know if the Seventh Prince would …
Chen Bei lowered his eyes, and his fingers slowly loosened.
"His life depends on me. If I live, he lives. If I die, he dies."
His arrogant and egotistical voice echoed in the main hall.
For a moment, Yue Ruliu did not know how to refute. She said dryly, "Do you know what poison you've been poisoned with?"
Shi Sheng's lips curled into a faint smile. "I'll know very soon."
"What …" Before Yue Ruliu could react, she heard orderly footsteps outside the room. She looked at the window that she had just entered through and saw imperial guards with weapons in their hands.
A sharp sound pierced through the air, and arrows with cold light shot in from the window. They did not seem to be able to distinguish between friend and foe.
Yue Ruliu dodged while looking at Shi Sheng. When the arrows were in front of her, it was as if there was a transparent barrier that blocked them. The sharp tips of the arrows pierced through the barrier and fell to the ground softly as if they had pierced through cotton.
How could it be …
It was also Chen Bei's first time seeing it. He was a little surprised, but he was much better than Yue Ruliu.
After all, he had been with her for a while and knew that she had many unusual tricks up her sleeve.
"If I kill her, will you be angry?" Shi Sheng lowered his head and looked at Chen Bei.
"Why would I be angry?" Chen Bei asked quickly.
Yue Ruliu was not familiar with him. He did not even remember who she was. If he had not decided to come to Fengluan and she had not suddenly appeared and insisted on taking him away, he might not even remember her name.
Yue Ruliu had been entrusted by his mother, but he did not want her to do so. He had his own plans and did not want to owe her anything. The last time he had let her go, it was already because of his mother.
"It's good that you're not angry." Shi Sheng took out his Iron Sword. "Anyway, if you're angry, I want to kill her too."
Chen Bei was speechless. So why are you asking me?
The arrows turned the entire room into a hornet's nest. Yue Ruliu scurried around the room, wanting to rush out. However, the rain of arrows formed a thick protective wall and she could not rush out at all.
How many arrows did these imperial guards bring with them?
Why was there no end to it?!
Yue Ruliu saw Shi Sheng coming towards her from the corner of her eyes. She looked at the arrows falling in front of her with a strange expression. Shock could no longer be used to describe her feelings.
What kind of martial arts was this?
Or sorcery??!
"What are you trying to do?"
Shi Sheng smiled mysteriously and swung his sword towards her. The cold light fell into Yue Ruliu's eyes and expanded infinitely in her pupils. Everything in front of her seemed to be white. In the next second, it was cut into countless fragments by the arrows that shot towards her. They scattered into light spots and formed an orderly array in the room.
At this moment, a strange scene occurred. The light spots actually gathered towards her and surrounded her.
When she got closer, Yue Ruliu saw that the light spots were not light at all. They were broken arrowheads. Each of them seemed to be cut off on purpose and were of the same size.
Swish —
The Iron Sword swung upwards and all the arrowheads shot towards Yue Ruliu's body.
