"This consort deserves to die?!" Didn't he deserve to die?! How old is this concubine to be to give up her youth and her life's happiness for his ambition? Why?! Even more outrageous is that, as the father of this Concubine, he actually concealed it from this Concubine. His true identity is to have this Concubine become his subordinate, to do things for him … "He controlled everything in this consort's hands and used it to threaten me. Even if he were to die a thousand times or ten thousand times, it wouldn't be a pity …"
"Ah …"
A blood-curdling screech sounded outside the house, startling the snow-white plum blossoms.
Shuangqing stared at her malevolently.
Noble Consort Xiang's hair was firmly grasped by her and both her hands were tightly gripped, unable to move an inch.
Although she was battered and exhausted, Noble Consort Xiang was still extremely beautiful.
"If you hadn't drugged this consort's water, would this consort have let you bully me?!" "Zhou Shuangqing, you keep saying that you are doing this for your father, that you are so loyal to the Lord, but why don't you die with him to show your loyalty?!"
"Don't worry, I will …" Shuangqing's gaze was strange, it was dark and vicious.
She said, "I let you... I want you to see how I am … To your sweetheart. He was not valued highly. To kill him, was more important than to kill that brutal Seventh Prince … It's much easier, don't you think?! "
Noble Consort Xiang's gaze tightened, but he scoffed: "Zhou Shuangqing, it seems like you are not... I love this concubine's father very much. The one who captured father was that Seventh Prince, and the one who escorted him back to the Heaven Prison was that Seventh Prince as well. He didn't do anything, yet you only hurt him, and it's fortunate that you said that … "
She kicked Noble Consort Xiang away. Noble Consort Xiang's body was weak, the medicine had already taken effect.
Unable to stand properly, Noble Consort Xiang fell to the ground. She struggled to stand up, staring at Zhou Shuqing's every move.
Compared to the Noble Consort Xiang, Zhou Shuang Qing was much calmer. Taking out a dazzling dagger from his sleeve, she looked at Noble Consort Xiang and said:
"Whether you love your master or not is my business. Whether you kill Shen Hancheng or not is my business. You don't have the right to express your opinions …"
"When you become a blind and dumb beauty, with both your hands and feet crippled, you can go and talk to the one you love!"
"You, you've gone mad, this concubine is … "Ahhh!"
After a long while.
A woman slowly walked out of a room in the cold palace.
The girl's body was covered in blood. She walked in the snowy night with an expressionless face, but strangely …
No one had noticed her abnormality.
After putting on her outer garment, the woman walked out of the cold palace.
A woman murmured softly, "Empress, there is a palace maid outside the palace hall. She says that she's one of the servants by Beauty Xiang's side and wishes to meet the Empress."
The queen was about to remove her disguise when she stopped.
After a moment of silence she said: "Let her in."
"Yes, Empress."
The empress was supported by her servant girl. Layers of beaded curtains were opened, and the first thing that entered her eyes was the woman kneeling on the ground, her face almost touching the ground.
The empress found a place to sit and said flatly, "Little Sister Xiang, you've been quiet for so long …" No one has made a single move, how can anyone have the time to send someone to visit this palace today?! "
The woman slowly raised her head. Her face was extremely pale and haggard, as well as carrying extreme fear.
Her voice trembled as she sobbed, "Esteemed Empress, please save this servant …"
The empress was stunned as she saw the girl untie her shirt with trembling hands.
The empress's face changed at the sight of the blood.
Light Candle... In Noguchi's bedroom.
The skinny figure of the young man … Enveloped by a warm and enchanting radiance.
His gaze quietly fell on the woman's face, and a wisp of a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth as he gazed at her lovingly.
Su Jinruo was changing the medicine for Shen Hancheng.
Shen Hancheng's wounds were mostly on his upper body, but...
After administration and application, most of the wounds had already begun to scab.
There were only a few wounds left, thin and fair … On his firm and powerful chest, there was a malevolent expression.
Su Jinruo's hand rested on his chest, rubbing the alms bowl.
Her delicate fingertip gently rubbed against it, bringing about a wave of trembling and numbing. Shen Hancheng's eyes were deep.
He stared at her, his eyes faintly tinged with restraint. He said hoarsely,
"Jinruo, you've worked hard these past few days."
Su Jinruo did not stop moving, her gaze converging onto... His hideous wound.
Su Jinruo didn't take up the conversation with him and instead asked with a light smile.
"Just now, Godly Doctor Qi, what did I tell you? Is it convenient for you to tell me?"
Not long ago, she went to the kitchen to get the medicine for Shen Hancheng.
When he returned, Godly Doctor Qi just happened to come out of the house. This was not a problem, the problem was …
The look in his eyes was far too meaningful for her to understand. What exactly did he mean …
The smile on her face lessened slightly, and soon after, returned to her original angle. Shen Hancheng rubbed her beautiful and smooth long hair, and said:
"He asked this duke, when will you and I get together, to get a Imperial Heir?"
Hearing that, Su Jinruo was stunned for a few seconds.
See... The eyes of the person on the bed stared at her with a fiery gaze. Her face instantly flushed red.
Su Jinruo hurriedly lowered his head and helped Shen Hancheng bandage his wound, not daring to ask any further.
After laughing for a while, Shen Hancheng retracted his gaze. His eyes were pitch black like the dawn.
Godly Doctor Qi did ask him a question, but then … Not this.
He asked: "I have always thought that after you go onto the volcano and obtain the Red Lotus Fruit, for your woman, you will definitely eliminate all difficulties and properly arrange the Red Lotus Fruit, and also, Qian Yi should be by your side the entire time. With his loyal and protective personality, it is even more impossible for him to heavily injure his master, but he is only suffering from minor injuries. "The claws of animals are unmistakable, but what makes me puzzled the most is this: Junior Brother, when was there a trace of the King of Beasts on the volcano?"
A tiger is the king of beasts. As the saying goes, a mountain cannot contain two tigers. This is the way … It was impossible for this tiger to be a social animal.
More importantly, the tiger's daily habits made it the most unlikely for it to survive … On the scorching volcano.
From the perspective of ordinary people, there wasn't anything abnormal about Junior Brother's wound, but as a genius doctor, if it was even a wound …
If he didn't know what it was, then wouldn't he have earned his reputation?
Is To...
Shen Hancheng's wound could only be explained as a result, having been deliberately treated as such on his way back to the capital …
There are two reasons:
Firstly, after obtaining the Red Lotus Fruit, Shen Hancheng would definitely go down the mountain, and … The tiger is always on the mountain, so it is impossible for him to come down.
Second, the volcano was extremely dangerous, if his junior brother came down the volcano, even if Shen Hancheng was injured, his injuries would not be too severe …
How could a mere tiger, with his skill, injure it so badly, and almost die?!
Purpose... He didn't need to think to know what his purpose was …
"Junior Brother, you've changed …" No matter what you do in the past, you always do things your own way and never do anything based on emotion. But now, you are lying a lot of lies for a woman, and if I'm not wrong, you did this on purpose, didn't you, Fu Hua and Qian Yijian? Tsk tsk tsk tsk … Actually, just these things alone are enough to change your woman's mind. You even used your own life as the price in order to force her to admit her feelings towards you, force her to face the reality that she is your wife, and forever eliminate future troubles. Junior Brother, you … It really is fallen! "
Godly Doctor Qi's expression did not let out a sigh, "Although we haven't interacted much, I can tell that your woman really hates those who lie to her. If she finds out one day that you've lied to her, wouldn't she be anxious with you?!"
At that time, Shen Hancheng's eyes darkened slightly. He threw the document to the side and laughed:
"This King has his own arrangements. She won't leave This King."
Godly Doctor Qi raised his eyebrows and laughed, "You're so confident, can it be that you want to kill her? You're willing to do that?"
After a moment of silence, Shen Hancheng's eyes revealed a smile, and he said: "Is it important? As long as she loves This King, then... If she is so stubborn that she wants to stop, This King will make her... It cannot be stopped. "
Oh –
The Godly Doctor Qi blinked his eyes lightly, and he looked into Shen Hancheng's eyes.
His junior brother was determined to win. He lowered his gaze and silently smiled.
I almost forgot, his junior apprentice-brother …
Just what kind of person was he?
After making a knot, Su Jinruo was just about to get up and organize the medicine when Shen Hancheng grabbed her slender arm.
Su Jinruo looked up at him. Shen Hancheng patted his empty body and laughed:
"Come up, let's chat."
Su Jinruo was startled for a moment, then sat on the edge of the bed and asked indifferently: "What are you chatting about?"
Shen Hancheng glanced at her and lifted the quilt.
By... Shen Hancheng had been lying on the bed the entire time, covered with a blanket, which was why he was wearing very little.
His frail body sat next to Su Jinruo. Su Jinruo tightened his brows and said:
"Go back and sit down, I …" "I'll accompany you."
Shen Hancheng didn't look at her. She slightly lifted her handsome face to the side.
He knew what she minded. He took her cold hand and pulled her to the bed.
Su Jinruo was afraid that she would come into contact with his wound, so she covered herself with a quilt and sat a little far away from him due to her low temperature.
Suddenly, her waist went numb. A strong arm grabbed her wrist, preventing her from moving.
Shen Hancheng directly approached her, wrapped his arm around her soft waist, and acted in a intimate manner.
Su Jinruo's body instantly stiffened.
The familiar firm and warm feeling stuck close to her. Su Jinruo's heart trembled, but he heard Shen Hancheng asking in a low voice:
"Jinruo, why didn't you ask this king how do you know your identity?"
Su Jinruo's eyes moved. How could she not know about the questions that had been bothering her for a long time?
He had wanted to pass … They had secretly investigated his Drunken Flower House and obtained what they wanted to know, but they could do nothing about it …
In regards to this, it could be said that Shen Hancheng had done a watertight job, but she could not find anything out …
However, thinking about it made sense.
If she could find out something, the others … Absolutely.
Her identity is too special, we can't let anyone else … There was a chance to grab hold of her weakness.
It had to be said that Shen Hancheng's thoughts were meticulous.
Since they were going to chat, the knot in their hearts had been resolved. Su Jinruo had always been this way … They were all good kids who would ask when they didn't understand.
Ignore as much as possible... Because of an awkward and stiff reaction caused by his intimate action, Su Jinruo said:
"Before... Those words you said to Lv Ruo, you can't use as an excuse. "
