"Ahh …" Xue Shaoli was shocked. Lowering his head, he was frightened to the point of going limp. He saw that Mu Ying had already woken up. He stared at her with wide opened eyes and a livid expression.

"Eh, King, Prince, you're finally awake." Xue Shaoli quickly stood up and straightened her dress. She hadn't expected Mu Ying to wake up so quickly.

"Where am I?" Mu Sheng sat up, looking at the bandages on his chest and the strange behavior of Xue Shaoli. For a moment, he could not recall what had happened.

"This is the county magistrate court. You were injured. I was there just now to examine your condition." Xue Shaoli stuttered.

"Is that so?" Mu Ying looked at her doubtfully. He had never had a good impression of Xue Shaoli before, so he definitely wouldn't believe her now.

"Yes, that's right, this is a divine doctor's medicine. Prince, you should quickly drink it while it's still hot." Xue Shaoli harbored ill intentions as she hurriedly brought over the bowl of poison.

"Godly Doctor?" Mu Sheng took the medicine as he quickly tried to recall exactly what had happened.

"Yes yes yes, Godly Doctor said to drink this medicine while it's still hot, please quickly drink it." Xue Shaoli urged anxiously.

"Where's Xue Luoyun?" Although Mu Sheng hadn't yet recalled what had happened, he still couldn't forget about Xue Ruoyun.

"She's … she's here." From the looks of it, Mu Sheng was just about to recall what happened that day.

"Where is she? Why isn't she by my side?" Mu Ying was slightly angry.

"Drink the medicine first, I'll go call her." Xue Shaoli heard footsteps outside and was afraid that the two doctors would come, so she urged them on.

"Why are you so anxious for me to drink this pill? Is there a problem with this pill?" Mu Sheng put down the medicine in his hands and glared at Xue Shaoli, causing her to feel a chill run down her spine.

"How could that be?" Xue Shaoli forced a smile.

"Since there isn't one, let me have a look." Mu Sheng handed over the medicine bowl.

"This, this is your medicine, I'm not sick, what's the use of drinking this medicine?" Xue Shaoli waved her hand.

"This King orders you to drink." Mu Ying stood up and grabbed Xue Shaoli's hand with one hand, forcing the medicine next to her mouth.

Xue Shaoli wanted to struggle free, but even though Mu Sheng was heavily injured, his strong body made his hands like iron fists. Xue Shaoli simply had no way to fight him.

Hearing the voice from inside, the guard cried out in alarm, "Second Miss, is the Prince awake?"

"It's me." Mu Ying's dignified voice rang out, "Immediately send the Godly Doctor to see me." Mu Ying ordered.

"Yes." The guard hurried off.

Mu Sheng's eyes were still fixed on Xue Shaoli, forcing her to drink the medicine. Currently, Mu Sheng had already sent people to call for the Godly Doctor. If they came, then everything would be exposed, and there would be no hope of killing Mu Sheng.

At this critical moment, Xue Shaoli quickly thought of a way to escape. Very quickly, a poison scheme was formed.

Didn't the Godly Doctor already say that Mu Ying shouldn't be provoked? Then he would have to see what would happen if he was provoked. If he was here and said that he was, he would definitely go and save him. With his current sickly appearance, even if he went, he would most likely be sending himself to his death. He could just let the Ghost-Masked Man in the cave finish him off.

Xue Shaoli's expression suddenly changed to one of seriousness. Her eyes were sorrowful as she spoke slowly, "Actually, I did lie to you."

"Admit it." Mu Sheng sneered.

"But I did it for a reason. I did it for you." Without waiting for Mu Sheng's reaction, Xue Ruoyun immediately said.

"Hmph, it's for me. Heh." Mu Sheng had long since seen through Xue Shaoli's true appearance and would believe her.

"Truly, didn't you do it for Xue Luoyun just now? Actually, I deceived you, and something happened to her." Xue Shaoli said.

"What happened to her!" Mu Sheng instantly turned fierce as he viciously clutched Xue Shaoli's neck. He was unable to calm himself down in the face of Xue Ruoyun.

"Cough, cough cough," Xue Shaoli pointed at her neck as she struggled in pain.

Seeing her act this way, Mu Ying released her hand. "Speak!"

"Do you still remember that day? You all escaped out of the cave, but elder sister was heavily injured and was captured by the bronze masked men." Xue Shaoli induced Mu Ying's thoughts.

Mu Sheng's head hurt. He remembered that it was indeed like this that caused him to fall unconscious.

"I think so." Xue Shaoli walked step by step to Mu Ying's ear and smiled sinisterly. "Later on, when she was captured, the Ghost-Masked Man tortured her to the point that she didn't look like a human or a ghost." Xue Shaoli said exaggeratedly.

"Ah, Lin Yun …" Hearing that Xue Ruyun was living like this, Mu Ying felt a splitting headache coming on. He suddenly felt as if he couldn't breathe, and blood began to ooze out from the gauze covering his chest. He held his head, shakily supporting himself on the table with one hand.

"Is the Prince really awake? That's great." Bian Xi's voice came from afar.

"Not good, they're here." Xue Shaoli was shocked. If they had arrived, Mu Ying would have been saved. No way! As Xue Shaoli thought of this, he walked over to Mu Ying and forcefully pulled his hand down, saying word by word, "Today is the day that the Ghost-Masked Man sacrifices to the heavens. They are going to kill her! If you hurry over now, you might be able to see her one last time. "

"Uh oh, Lin Yun!" Mu Yong suddenly charged forward like a madman with his sword raised.

Just as Bian Xi walked to the door, the door suddenly burst open. He saw Mu Ying rushing out with bloodshot eyes.

"Your highness, your highness!" Bian Xi and the others were startled by the sudden scene. They immediately reacted and chased after him.

"Go to hell." Xue Shaoli watched Mu Ying's back as she ran away. Smiling proudly, she hurriedly put away the medicine pot.
