213 thrilling
Shen Qingru seemed to feel something in her heart. Suddenly she looked up. A pair of green eyes were staring at her. It was the snake king wrapped around the silver haired dancer's neck just now.
The snake king hissed out the letter and quickly swam towards her. Seeing that it was only a few feet away from her, Shen Qingru suddenly pushed the old princess into Xu Mingzhu's arms and said in a high voice, "go find help!"
The chief bodyguard of the Regent's house is waiting outside. Now the only hope is to let the chief bodyguard come in and kill the snake king.
When the snake king missed, he also stepped back. His small green eyes twinkled with vicious light. It stood several feet high. Even if it had no poisonous teeth, as long as it was wrapped around people's neck, it could strangle people alive in just a few seconds.
Where Yu Guang passed, the prime minister's wife was anxiously calling the attendants outside the door to save people. Shen Qingru and the snake king looked at each other directly. The snake could kill people in a few seconds. If the guards wanted to save it, it was too late.
What's more, Xu Mingzhu is holding the old imperial concubine stumbling towards the door. It's uncertain when she can move in to save the soldiers. For now, she has to rely on herself.
The snake king hissed his letter and slowly twisted his body, as if he wanted to change his target. Shen Qingru did not dare to relax her vigilance at all. Her hand quietly touched the hairpin between her hair. It was the only sharp thing in her body and the only thing that could protect herself at this time.
Sure enough, the snake king suddenly shook his tail and rushed towards Shen Qingru again. It seems that he has recognized her goal. At that moment, Shen Qingru suddenly understood that today's play was entirely for himself. What snake dance, what silver haired dancer, is just a cover for the princess of Xindu. She clearly wants to kill herself on the spot through the wedding banquet of the imperial historian's prime minister's house!
Yan Ru Hede said that she should be careful, that is, to let her be careful of the poisonous snake scheme set by Princess Xindu?
The old imperial concubine, who was held by Xu Mingzhu, could not help crying out: "Qingru! Come on, help!"
Shen Qingru quickly fell to the side and avoided the attack of the snake king. However, at the moment of the lightning flint, she clearly saw two bright fangs in the snake king's mouth! The snake king is poisonous!
No matter how calm she was, she thought of the bloody mouth and the bright fangs in her mouth, smelling the fishy smell around her, Shen Qingru couldn't help but be surprised, and her hands trembled slightly. Seeing that the snake king is coming again, Shen Qing protects his lower abdomen with the following consciousness. Are their mother and son going to die here today?
No, never! Her child hasn't come into the world yet. Her husband doesn't even know the existence of the child. She must not die here without knowing it.
Shen Qingru bit the root of his teeth and restrained his fear. He looked straight at the snake king and guessed its next attack target. The snake king hissed out the letter, looked at it maliciously, threw his tail and rushed straight. Shen Qingru fell back and subconsciously stabbed the hairpin hidden in his hand——
Naturally, it is impossible to stab the snake king to death. The angered snake king may be angry and bite Shen Qingru directly. The old princess ran to Shen Qingru without thinking about it, but she was held by Xu Mingzhu.
"Pearl, let go!" the old princess shouted.
Xu Mingzhu was pale, but she still held the old princess's clothes. She would never want her grandmother to take risks for Shen Qingru. Xu Mingzhu's heart also secretly expects Shen Qingru to die immediately. If Shen Qingru is killed by a poisonous snake like this, she won't have to do that for Empress Yan Ru. It's a good thing for her.
The snake king was hurt by Shen Qingru's stab. Although the hairpin stabbed him, it didn't hit the key. The snake king calmed down, raised his body and opened his mouth again in the direction of Shen Qingru. This time, Shen Qingru no longer had the ability to resist. The women present closed their eyes in fear and did not dare to see Shen Qingru killed by a poisonous snake.
However, after waiting for a moment, there was no scream of Shen Qingru. The bolder woman quietly opened her eyes and looked at Shen Qingru's direction. Shocking blood splashed on the ground, but it was not human, but snake. The snake king twisted his body in pain and soon lay on the ground and died. Shen Qingru, who was still in shock, looked down and saw a glittering dagger inserted in the seven inches of the snake king. The dagger penetrated the seven inches of the snake king and nailed it to the ground!
Outside the crowd, the bodyguard of the Regent's house was also worried. He was ordered by the regent to protect the old princess and miss Qingru, but miss Qingru encountered such a disaster! Fortunately, he was quick in sight and quick in hand. He threw the dagger in his arms in time and pierced the snake king's seven inches. Only then could he save miss Qingru. If one step later, miss Qingru has a mistake... How should he explain to the Regent?
"Is miss Qingru all right?" the first response was Mrs. Cheng, the imperial historian. She hurriedly came forward to help Shen Qingru. She was very glad that Shen Qingru was safe. If Shen Qingru really had an accident in her house, the consequences would be unimaginable. According to the Regent's temper, he may let the Royal Shi Zhongcheng's family be buried with him.
Shen Qingru was helped up by the imperial censor's wife. The old princess threw off the shackles of Xu Mingzhu and rushed up to ask her East and West.
The old imperial concubine's face was full of lingering fear, holding Shen Qingru and crying: "silly child, what did you just push me away for? It really scared me to death..."
Shen Qingru smiled and patted the old princess on the back, comforting her: "grandma, don't be afraid, I'm fine."
Shen Qingru looked at the snake corpse on the ground calmly. Princess Xindu's hypocritical voice came into her ear: "Miss Shen is frightened? It looks so poor. Madam, let the kitchen make a bowl of tranquility Soup for Miss Shen."
The prime minister's wife hurriedly responded, but Shen Qingru sneered: "No. I'd like to ask the princess why the snake's fangs haven't been pulled out?"
Princess Xindu's eyes were wide open, and her face showed a look of surprise: "Oh? Really?"
The bodyguard of the Regent's residence immediately squatted down, broke off the snake king's mouth and looked carefully. Sure enough, he saw that poisonous tooth still standing in the snake king's mouth, with a bright and vicious light.
Princess Xindu was surprised, but Shen Qingru knew that 99% of the surprise was fake. I'm afraid the real idea of Princess Xindu at this time is that she is disappointed that the snake king didn't kill herself.
After listening to Shen Qingru's words, the old princess looked at the snake king's body on the ground in shock and anger. She saw the bright fangs with her own eyes. The old princess's body trembled. If the snake bites Qingru just now, the old imperial concubine's heart trembles. If Qingru has a mistake, how should she explain to her son?
"Princess Xindu, how do you explain to me about the Regent's palace!" the old lady excitedly smashed her crutch on the ground: "otherwise, it would be in front of the emperor and the queen, and I have to find an explanation!"
Princess Xindu looked at the old princess with a slightly surprised look: "the old princess, the beast is crazy. How can the palace predict?"
The old princess sneered: "the snake dance is what the princess wants to see. These snakes are also said by the princess's handmaid. If the guards of the Regent's house didn't help in time, could my granddaughter still be alive?"
The old princess's voice trembled and her face was pale. It was obvious that she had lingering palpitations. The people recalled the ferocious appearance of the snake king just now and couldn't help but feel frightened. The old lady is right. If the bodyguard of the Regent's palace is late, I'm afraid that miss Qingru will be bitten to death by a poisonous snake.
Princess Xindu was questioned face to face by the old princess, and her face was also a little ugly. In her opinion, she designed to kill Shen Qingru as she should, but Shen Qingru not only didn't die, but the old princess also questioned her in public that she deserved to die if she lost face.
Thinking of empress Yan Ru's warning, Princess Xindu secretly clenched her teeth. Now she can't tear her face with the Regent's house. Hum, when brother Erwang ascends the throne, the first thing is to kill all the people in your Regent's residence. See how many heads you dare to show off in this palace!
"Old princess, it's all a misunderstanding." Princess Xindu, with a stiff face, reluctantly explained to the old Princess: "there was such a mistake and almost hurt sister Qingru. I'll let someone punish the snake breeders. Please be relieved."
The old princess snorted and obviously did not accept the proposal of Princess Xindu.
Princess Xindu clenched her teeth, pointed to the close maid who had just proposed snake dance and said, "come on, pull her down and cut her!"
The close maid has served the princess in Xindu since she was a child, and has always been very popular with the princess in Xindu. At this time, she saw the master's fierce words to kill herself. She was so frightened that she knelt on the ground: "princess, spare your life! Your servant is wronged, princess, spare your life!"
Shen Qingru and the old imperial concubine naturally knew who was behind the whole thing. The maid who proposed to dance the snake was just a scapegoat. The maid was crying and was pulled out. After a while, someone held a golden tray covered with red cloth, which contained the cut off head of the maid.
The maidservant's eyes were wide open and she looked like she was dying in peace. The women's dependents were frightened and timid. They almost cried on the spot.
The old princess glared at the princess of Xindu angrily: "put an innocent handmaid to death. Is this what the princess told the Regent's house?"
Princess Xindu got up with an ugly face and looked straight at Shen Qingru behind the old Princess: "hum, does the old princess mean to ask the palace to pay for her life?"
"Jinu has been with the palace for many years, and the palace has always regarded her as a sister. Because she frightened Miss Shen for her negligence, the old princess was aggressive, and the palace had to give up her love and kill jinu. Isn't that enough?" the princess of Xindu hated.
