Dong Fang Li suddenly felt a silver needle flying in front of him. He, who was unable to dodge in time, was struck in the face by a hidden weapon, and as he dodged, the silver needle shot towards the imperial guards behind him.
This scene happened too quickly. Everyone looked at the fallen guard, not knowing where the silver needles had come from.
"Big Brother, are you alright?" Dongfang Hao looked at Dongfang Li in a daze.
Dongfang Li ignored him. She touched the bloodstain on the side of her face and raised her eyes to look at Xia Sizhu's calm and bloodthirsty eyes.
"Are you sure you want me to be your princess consort? Aren't you afraid of not waking up? " Xia Sizhu shook the silver needle in her hand, causing it to reflect a deadly cold light under the sunlight.
Dongfang Li's expression turned cold. Her gaze towards Xia Sizhu changed. Could it be that the silver needle that slipped through his face was sent by Xia Sizhu? But since when did Xia Sizhu know this?
Looking at Xia Sizhu's cold face, Dongfang Li suddenly realized that she actually didn't understand Xia Sizhu.
"The Crown Prince doesn't need to waste words with them. The most important thing is to take Xia Sizhu away as soon as possible." Yan Tianhua walked in front of Dongfang Li and whispered.
"Men! Capture Xia Sizhu for me!" Hearing this, Dong Fang Li immediately ordered.
The imperial guards immediately rushed forward to grab Xia Sizhu. Dongfang Ye released his hand, and just as he was about to attack, Dongfang Li kicked the horse's belly. The horse collided with Dongfang Ye's sword, and the two were evenly matched.
While Dongfang Ye was entangled with Dong Fang Li, the imperial guards immediately moved forward to grab Xia Sizhu. Xia Si, with a dagger in her hand, ran through the imperial guards, stabbing them one by one until they fell one by one.
Yan Tianhua looked at Xia Sizhu with a trace of ruthlessness in his eyes. He still remembered Xuan'er's shameful appearance at the banquet. She had secretly taken out a hidden weapon from her sleeve and aimed it at Xia Sizhu.
A cold light flashed as the concealed weapon flew towards Xia Si Zhu's chest. Xia Si Zhu was entangled by the imperial guards and felt danger approaching. Gritting his teeth, Xia Si Zhu gently leaned to the side.
Dongfang Ye also discovered that he wanted to save Xia Sizhu, but was completely suppressed by Dongfang Li.
Seeing that his concealed weapon was about to hit Xia Sizhu, Dongfang Ye's eyes darkened. He was prepared to reveal his strength to save Xia Sizhu when a figure suddenly pounced towards her.
Xia Sizhu felt that she was being hugged. With a "pu" sound, a hidden weapon pierced into her flesh. She quickly turned her head to look at Dongfang Hao's relieved expression. Before she could react, Dongfang Hao had already fainted.
The imperial guards were frightened by this scene and stopped their movements. Dong Fang Ye and Dong Fang Li also stopped fighting and headed over.
With great difficulty, Xia Sizhu turned Dongfang Hao's body over. When she saw the wound covered in black blood, her eyes turned cold.
"Quick, bring the antidote over. Do you want to kill him?" Seeing Yan Tianhua still standing there in a daze, Xia Sizhu couldn't help but shout out.
"There is no antidote!"
He knew that he had to capture Xia Sizhu, so he prepared this concealed weapon. The concealed weapon was coated with a deadly poison. In order to kill Xia Sizhu, he didn't bring the antidote.
It would be too late to send people to the General's Estate to get the antidote. The effects of the poison were extremely fast. Before the antidote could be obtained, the person had already been poisoned to death.
Yan Tianhua looked at Dongfang Hao's wound, which was covered in black blood. He knew that he was doomed to maim the royal family, but it was a crime to exterminate the nine clans.
As expected of her father and daughter, her daughter wanted her to lose her innocence. Her father wanted her to die, but he truly didn't belong to his family. If she didn't join his family, she would remember this grudge.
Dongfang Ye looked coldly at Yan Tianhua, the murderous intent in his eyes undisguised.
"General Yan, you …" Dongfang Li glared at Yan Tianhua. This was a bad thing for the family, if Dongfang Hao died here, how would he explain it to his father?
Xia Sizhu looked at Dongfang Hao's closed eyes and gritted her teeth, ignoring the fact that saving someone was more important.
Xia Sizhu extended her hand towards Dongfang Hao's wound. Under Dongfang Li's shocked gaze, "Sssii …"
The clothes on Dongfang Hao's chest were torn apart by Xia Sizhu just like that, revealing the wound on his chest that was tainted with black blood.
Xia Sizhu bent over and pressed her lips against Dongfang Hao's wound, helping him suck out the poison.
Dongfang Ye's expression changed. He grabbed Xia Sizhu's shoulder and asked, "What are you doing?"
Xia Si Zhu spat out a mouthful of black blood.
"What is it? "Help him suck out the poison, don't disturb me, otherwise I'll swallow the poison in my mind and kill two of them." After saying that, Xia Sizhu bent over and sucked out another mouthful of the poison.
Dongfang Ye's eyes gradually dimmed, but he didn't object.
Dongfang Li looked at the constantly inhaling and vomiting Xia Sizhu. For the first time, she realized that she was actually quite good-looking.
All of the imperial guards held their breath as they stared unblinkingly at Xia Sizhu. They all knew that sucking out the poisoned blood for someone was very dangerous. If one wasn't careful, the two of them would die.
After inhaling for a while, Xia Sizhu took out a rolled up cloth and opened the cloth. There were rows and rows of silver needles on the cloth. Xia Sizhu took out a few silver needles and inserted them into Dongfang Hao's body.
When Dongfang Li saw that she wanted to stop Xia Sizhu, she was caught by Dongfang Ye. He looked coldly at Dongfang Li and said, "If you want him dead, you have to stop her."
Dongfang Li looked at Xia Sizhu, whose eyes were focused on her. Then, she looked at Dongfang Ye and coldly snorted. He stopped her. These two people wouldn't listen to him, so she couldn't blame him for anything that happened.
After a while, the color of the black blood gradually faded until no more blood flowed out from the wound. Only then did Xia Sizhu sit paralyzed on the ground.
"Right now, besides the excessive blood loss, there is also some residual poison. However, it's not fatal, so you can rest assured." Xia Sizhu sucked in a breath of air before exhaling and speaking slowly.
When everyone heard this, they immediately went up. There was no longer any pain on Dongfang Hao's face. Other than his pale face, he looked alright.
Dongfang Li looked at Xia Sizhu with a complicated expression. He had always thought that she didn't know anything, but from the calm she displayed just now, he started to suspect that she really didn't know anything like the rumours in the market.
At this moment, a carriage came over quickly. Everyone looked up when they heard the voice and saw a woman come out of the carriage, then another woman come out.
No one noticed the expression of Dong Fang Li and Yan Tianhua when they saw the first woman coming out.
Her Majesty stepped out of the carriage and glanced around. When she saw Xia Sizhu, her eyes lit up, and when she saw the black blood by her lips, her face darkened.
"Who hurt my little girl Zhu?" The empress dowager quickly walked in front of Xia Sizhu, her gaze filled with killing intent falling on Yan Tianhua and Dongfang Li.
