After Chiyu said this, everyone present was shocked, especially Lin Feng. His complexion was quite unsightly. His own little sister had been rejected by Scarlet Jade. Was there anything more shameful than this?

As for Lin Yue, she couldn't bear this impact and directly fainted. Yun Ruo Lu looked at Chi Yu. She couldn't understand why he wouldn't marry her.

"Your Highness, why are you unwilling to marry my sister? If you marry her, you can also marry another woman. " Not only did this baffled Yun Ruo, even Lin Feng could not understand what was going on.

"Because I once promised a woman that I would only be able to love her once, so I won't marry another woman." Scarlet Jade said.

"Oh? Don't you think that woman is too extreme? You actually want His Highness to agree to such a ridiculous request? " Lin Feng's eyebrows twitched as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.

"This is a man's promise to a woman. I will give that woman everything I have." Chiyu spoke very seriously, her face didn't have the slightest trace of a smile. It was as if he was talking about an extremely sacred matter.

Lin Feng also seemed to be shocked by his seriousness.

However, Lin Feng remained silent for a while and then said, "Crown Prince, do you think that you can easily leave Phoenix City if you enter? I'll give you three days to consider it. If you agree to marry my sister, then I'm willing to personally offer the purple crystal to you. I can marry my sister to you, and if you don't agree, then I'm afraid that you and your friends won't be able to leave Phoenix City. It seems that the Emperor still doesn't know that you are here. You should be in Yuchi Kingdom right now, but even if you die, no one will know. Then he turned around.

The next day, the three of them were restricted from moving. Phoenix City truly had a very good foundation. There were top-notch experts all around them, and if they wanted to escape, Yun Ruo Lu felt that they would immediately be shot to death because she could sense that there were many archers ambushing them.

However, they were all in the dark. Sometimes, there would be a few glimmers of light under the shade of the trees. It was probably the light the weapon accidentally reflected in the sunlight.

"Actually, you don't have to be distressed, as long as you agree to them. Otherwise, if you die here, Lan Yong will even have to declare war on Yuchi." On the other hand, Yuchi Xuan said in a neither fast nor slow manner.

"No." Redjade had denied Yuchi Xuan in one go. This caused Yuchi Xuan, the Yuchi Emperor, to feel rather embarrassed.

Yun Ruo didn't say anything. Logically speaking, she should have been like Yuchi Xuan and tried to persuade him to agree, but she couldn't. Although when she heard Chiyu say that he loved a woman and gave her that kind of promise, she couldn't help but feel envious of that woman. There had been a man who had said he would try, but he had died just as he was beginning to get used to loving her wholeheartedly.

Now that Chiyu said she would treat a woman like this, although she had a strange feeling in her heart, she didn't want to stop him from doing so. That woman, she thought, should be a very happy woman. He didn't even want a river or a mountain, yet he only wanted to do it for her. It was as if he existed for her in this world and lived for her.

"I will not agree to this." Chiyu only said this.

Yuchi Xuan could only sigh.

On the second night, an unexpected person appeared. This person was none other than Lin Yue. She said that she knew of a secret passage in this mansion that led directly to Phoenix City and could escort them safely out of the city.

She said it was all her brother's idea, and her brother didn't want the city to be annexed, so that night they went into the secret passage.

At this moment, they were walking in a secret passageway. Yun Ruo Lu suddenly felt that this secret passageway was very long, and it was somewhat outrageous to look at it.

Just as Yun Ruo slowly walked out of the secret passage, she saw a flame that reached the sky. It turned out that there was already someone guarding the passage. That person was Lin Feng.

"Don't try to help them escape." After which, they were all captured and brought back. The people that Lin Feng brought with him were all first-rate experts. Yun Ruo Lu could feel that the breathing of these experts was different. Their breathing was very slow, but it was steady and regular. In fact, those people should have rushed over at night, but their breathing was not hurried.

If they were to make a move, they would definitely not be able to escape. These experts were not like those bandits in the desert, most of them had several years or even several decades of inner strength.

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

However, he was summoned by Lin Feng for a meal the next morning. On the other hand, Lin Feng's face was full of smiles as he told them that he understood. After all, his little sister's heart ached for Chiyu, so after this meal, he decided to let them go.

He even placed amethysts on the table, telling them to take them away later.

Yun Ruo Lu thought this was strange, wasn't Lin Feng's temper a little too unpredictable? In a while, they would come to capture them, and in a while, they would give them the amethysts.

However, Yun Ruo Lu and co. were still eating. However, she felt that the censer in the kitchen was emitting a strange fragrance from today onwards. Yun Ruo Lu seemed to have smelled this fragrance somewhere before.

"What is it? "Are you afraid that this food is poisonous?" Lin Feng used the silver needles to test the poison, and after eating a few mouthfuls of each dish, he said, "I will not poison you, because there is no need."

Only after eating not much did Yun Ruo and the others feel the world spinning around them. At this time, she remembered that the fragrance did indeed have a refreshing effect; it only became a type of knockout drug when it was used with another type of medicinal herb, causing people to lose consciousness.

However, it was too late. She watched as Scarlet Jade fell and Yuchi Xuan fell as well. Then she also felt that she didn't have the strength to fall down.

When she woke up, she found herself locked in a room with another person beside her. However, she did not know who it was. She could not even open her eyes; she had only regained some consciousness.

In a blur, she took a pill from her pocket and put it in her mouth. Then she spat out blood and felt pain all over her body. She didn't want to take this medicine because it wasn't good for her body. But at this time, she remembered that the effects of the knockout drug were extremely good. Even if she woke up midway, she would very soon fall into a coma again.

Those who were hit would be unconscious for at least three days.

Therefore, she came up with this idea. She did not have the antidote, but she had brought a pill with her. She was afraid that something bad would happen to the Blue Daimon, or that she would be drugged with a drug that would cause her to wake up, or that it wouldn't work on her.

As expected, the pain woke her up. She felt as though every bone in her body was in pain. She opened her eyes and saw beads of sweat dripping down her forehead. She looked at the person beside her. It was Yuchi Xuan. She propped herself up and walked to the door. It didn't seem to be locked. Perhaps Lin Feng was certain that they had been drugged and that there was no need to lock the door.

There weren't many people here, and sometimes a few would walk in. She didn't plan on waking Yuchi Xuan up, and so she endured the pain as she walked out.

When a servant passed by, she found a place to hide. She heard from the servants that Crown Prince Yingyu was going to marry Lin Yue tonight.

Yun Ruo slowly thought that she could have just left, or called for reinforcements when the time came. However, if that's the case, Chi Yu should be willing to marry Lin Yue. Originally, there was nothing bad about this, but Scarlet did not want to marry her. She was considering if she should help Scarlet Jade, even if it meant that her chances of winning weren't very high.

Right now, she only had three pills on her body. One was the pill that she had just used, the other was a pill that could temporarily slow down the poison, and the last one was a medicine that could be used to treat external injuries.

Everything else was in the room.

She walked around the courtyard and then used her lightness techniques to find her own residence. She discovered that there was nothing missing here. Most likely, Lin Feng was only prepared to temporarily stun them, and only let them go after Red Jade became his wife.

She found the poison she had brought with her, then endured the pain as she took one and ate it. He suddenly felt a cooling sensation in his heart. This medicine could help to soothe a knockout drug.

It would also ease the pain, but it would only ease it. She was still in pain all over. The pain would last for at least a day.

She sneaked into the kitchen and put some of the stuff in there, and since they had drugged her, it was normal for her to at least get a bit of a gift back.

After doing something to the kitchen, Yun Ruo Lu added her own concocted knockout drug into the wine.

After that, she gasped for breath as she sat behind an unremarkable fire in the kitchen. The pain in her hand was unbearable. Beads of sweat dripped from his head. Only when the servants had brought away all the food and wine that was prepared for the wedding did she let out a sigh of relief before walking out while enduring the pain.

The front hall of the City Lord's Mansion was extremely lively. Everyone knew that the City Lord's sister was going to be married off to the son of the Southern Champion, so all the officials and nobles in the city had come.

They ate and drank. This knockout drug wouldn't start immediately, so Yun Ruo Lu deliberately soaked it in water and sprinkled some of it on the food and wine, but it should be delayed. However, it wouldn't reduce the efficacy of the drug. After all, she had made an extremely strong knockout drug.

Sure enough, the banquet had only been held for an hour. Many of the people present thought that they had drunk too much, and they all fell to the ground. Not only had Yun Ruo Man made a move amidst the guests' food and wine, even the servants had made their move. As a result, almost everyone was sleeping soundly, and was instantly put down by her.

Of course, there were a few on duty who hadn't eaten yet, and of course, she had sprayed a handful of knockout drugs on them.
