Chapter 248 Pretending
Chapter 248 Pretending
"Why would I save someone who originally wanted to kill me?" Shang Ruoyi sneered, "Carry him out, don't let him die in my yard, it's very unlucky."
How can this be done?
If he left now, Situ Wen might not be able to hold on for long.
"Divine doctor, there is a night-shining pearl in General Situ's mansion. If you can help him detoxify, I will persuade him to give it to you."
"Night-shining pearl?" Shang Ruoyi curled her lips: "Is it very precious?" There are more than five in her space.
Zhou Xiang's face froze. General Situ had been showing off in front of them all day long that he had a night-shining pearl, but now he was being despised to such an extent.
"Forget it. It's a human life after all. I will help him with reluctance. When he recovers, get out of my yard." She finished her words and before Zhou Xiang nodded, she continued, "And as for that night-shining pearl, Lord Zhou, please remind him to send it to me."
"Yes, yes, Godly Doctor, rest assured."
Shang Ruoyi came up to Situ Wen and felt his pulse. She couldn't help but frowned slightly.
It turned out to be the poison of the Heart-Eroding Grass.
This poison is colorless and odorless, but it is an extremely deadly chronic poison. There is no unusual feeling when taking it at first, but after taking it for a long time, one will become irritable and have extreme fluctuations in guilt. It only takes one opportunity and the entire heart will explode inside the body.
How deep must the hatred be to poison him like this?
In fact, when Situ Wen was yelling at her like a madman just now, Shang Ruoyi suspected that he had been poisoned.
Now it seems that my guess was right.
She took out a white porcelain bottle and poured the spiritual spring water into his mouth.
The unique purifying effect of Lingquan water can remove the toxins of Heart-Eroding Grass.
Taking out a silver needle, Zhou Xiang was shocked when he saw such a thick silver needle.
This, this, this... If this pierces the body, it will leave a bloody hole.
Is this a cure or a death sentence?
"Miracle doctor."
Before he finished speaking, he heard her say in a cold voice: "Shut up, don't disturb me when I'm treating the patient."
Zhou Xiang quickly shut his mouth.
Shang Ruoyi inserted five needles near his heart, and a pool of black blood oozed out with each needle.
After a while, the black blood gradually turned into bright red, and the expression on Shang Ruoyi's face relaxed slightly.
After the last needle was pulled out, Situ Wen, who had been in a coma, slowly woke up.
Shang Ruoyi saw this and smiled and said, "Don't forget the Night Pearl."
Night pearl?
What is night pearl?
If it were something else, Situ Wen might not be so sensitive, but the Night Pearl was his most treasured thing, so he naturally took it very seriously.
Zhou Xiang had no choice but to tell him what had just happened.
At first, he was somewhat grateful when he heard that Shang Ruoyi was helping him detoxify. But when he heard that she wanted to exchange it for a Night Pearl, he stood up suddenly and said, "What? A Night Pearl? Don't even think about it! That's my treasure!" He thought, since his poison had been cured anyway, even if she refused to pay now, what could she do?
Shang Ruoyi heard this and sneered: "I gave you a chance, but you are useless, don't blame me." She moved her thin lips slightly and said slowly: "Three, two, one."
Just when everyone was confused, Situ Wen suddenly screamed, covered his heart with his uninjured hand, and blood kept flowing out of his mouth.
"People die for money and birds die for food. Since you are unwilling to give up your money, then just leave your life behind." Her eyes were full of disdain, and the way she looked at him was as if she was looking at a dead person, without any warmth at all.
Situ Wen felt his life slipping away and finally began to panic.
"I am willing to use the Night Pearl as a reward and ask the doctor to save my life." Situ Wen knelt on the ground and begged, "Please."
"I never give people a second chance." Shang Ruoyi glanced at him and said to Zhou Xiang, who had been standing there in a daze, "Sir Zhou, it's late. I won't keep you here any longer." After she finished speaking, she ignored the shouting behind her and turned to leave.
Zhou Xiang had no choice but to say to the officers and soldiers around him: "What are you still standing there for? Why don't you take General Situ away quickly?"
Shang Ruoyi returned to the yard, and the secret guard following her couldn't help but ask curiously, "Master Lingjun, where did the prince go?" The officers and soldiers had searched every room just now, but there was no trace of the prince at all.
"Keep your voice down. The prince is still resting. Don't disturb him." Shang Ruoyi opened the door and whispered, "Stand by the door."
"Yes."
Shang Ruoyi closed the door and made sure that there was no one around. She waved her hand and the sleeping He Yuwen reappeared on the bed.
Just as she was about to leave, she heard the voice of the secret guard at the door: "Prince."
Shang Ruoyi raised her eyebrows slightly. Why did he come back?
"Is the Crown Prince's Consort in the room?" The man outside the door had a low, hoarse voice, as if he had caught a cold.
"Prince, where is the Crown Prince's Consort here? The one who just came in was Master Lingjun."
"Ah."
Shang Ruoyi frowned and put He Yuwen, who was lying on the bed, back into the space.
She had just put on the mask when the door was pushed open.
He Jingheng walked in and took off his cloak.
"You're here." He Jingheng cast his eyes on the bed and frowned slightly: "Where's my father?"
"Father?" Shang Ruoyi said in a low voice: "Prince, are you confused? Where is your father here?" She held a few silver needles in her hand, and her eyes under the mask were full of vigilance: "Prince, why did you come to my room in the middle of the night?"
He Jingheng was stunned, coughed a few times and said, "I just came to see you."
"Prince, have you found all the herbs I asked you to bring for me before you go out this time?" Shang Ruoyi stretched out her left hand: "You can't break your promise!"
He Jingheng's eyes fell on her hand. After a while, he whispered, "I came back in a hurry and didn't have time to look for it. Next time I go out, I will definitely not forget it."
Upon hearing this, Shang Ruoyi closed her palms, put her hands behind her back, and a pistol appeared in her palms.
The next moment, she raised her pistol and pointed the muzzle at his forehead. Shang Ruoyi's eyes were cold and stern: "You are not He Jingheng."
"Ruoyi, what are you talking about?" He Jingheng said with a smile, "I just didn't bring you any herbs, why are you so angry?"
"Before He Jingheng left, I didn't ask him to take anything." That day was so ridiculous, how could she have the mood to ask him to bring anything for her?
"I didn't expect you to see through me." The man sneered, "But so what? In this manor, those guards only seem to listen to their prince." He shouted, "Someone come!"
As soon as the words fell, several secret guards rushed in: "Prince."
"Take her down for me!"
Take it down?
Isn’t Master Lingjun a distinguished guest of the Crown Prince?
"What are you waiting for?" the man said angrily, "Don't you guys listen to what I say?"
Just as the secret guards were about to draw their swords, a deep voice came from outside the door: "Who dares?"
