1501 the first prince’s showdown!
Just like how she had secretly cultivated the forbidden technique before, Emperor Sheng Wen had only imprisoned her in purgatory and did not go any further. Even after these few years, she was still the same. Her food and drinks were still not lacking, and she was still treated the same as before.
they had met before at the little quiet lake. as long as her cultivation was crippled, the aftereffects of her forbidden cultivation would also disappear completely. she would still be the high and mighty eldest princess.
even if there was one time when both parties were on bad terms because of xiao ran, they had always followed the rules except for that confrontation.
Emperor Sheng Wen also had feelings for her, but he buried this affection far away in the depths of his heart and did not dare to show it.
Xiao ran understood all these.
Although he hated Emperor Sheng Wen, and there were grudges between them, neither side further worsened the conflict, as if the eldest Princess was this twisted. Xiao ran did not find trouble with him, and he did not secretly send people to deal with him.
Although he had obtained the outstanding military achievements of the Zhou country, which was enough to make him a King, he still gave him the unique title of Marquis Wushuang.
What was unparalleled? unparalleled, unparalleled in the world! he was the most powerful marquis in the great xia dynasty, second only to the king.
Patting her shoulder, Xiao ran consoled her, ” ” don’t think too much. everything will work out when it comes to it. ”
“yes.” The eldest Princess nodded.
He changed the topic.
” one day, i’ll leave this place openly. i’ll walk with you to every corner of great xia. after we’re done, we’ll walk through the entire fantasy realm continent. we’ll leave our footprints everywhere. ”
xiao ran touched her forehead and smiled, ” “I look forward to that day.”
he got out of the bath barrel and kept it.
The two of them were not in a hurry to rest. They enjoyed this quiet time and cherished every minute and second.
The eldest Princess leaned into his arms. She didn’t look like she was overbearing, aloof, and unapproachable, or someone who could decide the life and death of others with a single word. At this moment, she was just a woman in love. In front of her beloved person, she showed her tenderness, nothing more.
“you know? I was really angry when you beat me up. Who am I? I’m the high and mighty eldest Princess. In the great Xia Dynasty, I’m the representative of power. Even Sheng Wen has to be polite to me. I’ve only suffered in your hands. I’ve been pressed to the left and beaten to the right by you. Every time, you’ve even hit my face. I’m so angry that I’m gritting my teeth.” The eldest Princess said faintly.
xiao ran touched his nose awkwardly and said,”you can’t blame me for this, can you?” I remember that you’re the one who delivered yourself to my door every time. The after-effects of cultivating the nine Heavens purest spirit controlling technique have erupted, and you’ve almost turned into a monstrous devil. It would’ve been faster to see the effects of this slap in the face.”
“Hmph! Hmph!”
They talked about all kinds of interesting things in the past and didn’t stop until midnight.
“it’s getting late, it’s time to rest,” the eldest princess said.
“yes.” Xiao ran responded.
He held her in his arms and waved his right hand. The prison fell into darkness. They listened to each other’s breathing and enjoyed this rare warm time.
he didn’t know how long had passed.
The eldest Princess fell asleep sweetly, letting out light snores.
xiao ran smiled and hugged her even tighter before he fell asleep.
The next day.
Their biological alarm clock rang on time, but neither of them got up and continued to stay in bed.
The eldest Princess opened her eyes and her long eyelashes fluttered,”still not getting up?”
“you’ve been busy for so many days, can’t you take a break?” xiao ran asked.
“Continue sleeping?”
“sure!”
he immediately fell asleep. he did not stop until noon. when he noticed zhang yu’s arrival, he stopped outside the cell. although he did not disturb them, they were both of high cultivation and could still feel it.
“He must have something urgent to tell you,” the eldest Princess said.
“i should.” Xiao ran said.
“I wanted to hold you until tomorrow morning, but it seems like I can’t do it anymore,” he said with a regretful expression.
the eldest princess gently touched his forehead and said with a smile, ” “even if you can’t do it this time, there’s still a next time, right?”
“yes.” Xiao ran nodded.
The two of them got out of bed.
After washing up.
xiao ran put away the wizardry barrier and pulled open the curtain. he opened the cell door and said, ” “Come in!”
Zhang Yu felt embarrassed. If it wasn’t an extremely urgent matter, he wouldn’t have bothered Xiao ran at this time. He walked in guiltily, lowered his head, and said weakly, ” “brother xiao, sister-in-law, the first prince is here. he’s in the main hall on the first floor.”
“Are you looking for me?” Xiao ran asked.
“yes.” zhang yu nodded heavily.
“Did he say what it was?”
“no, i didn’t!”
“He must be here for that matter,” the eldest Princess said.
“You think it’s him?”
” if it was him, he wouldn’t have come so openly. once there’s evidence that he’s involved in this matter, he’ll be the first to suffer. ”
xiao ran stood up from his chair, ” “I’ll go take a look.”
He left the cell.
he brought zhang yu to the hall on the first floor.
at this point.
seeing that xiao ran had arrived, the eldest prince hurriedly stood up from his chair and smiled. ” “i’m sorry for disturbing you, but please forgive me.”
“Sit!” xiao ran pointed at the chair.
The two of them sat on the chairs.
the great prince looked to his left and right. it seemed that he wanted to say something secret, but there were so many people around him that it was not convenient to say it.
Xiao ran understood what he meant and waved his hand. “all of you, back down!”
after zhang yu and the others left, the first prince’s men stood guard outside.
However, the first Prince was not at ease. With a wave of his right hand, he set up a barrier that enveloped the hall. This way, even if others wanted to eavesdrop, they could not do so.
“why did you suddenly think of looking for me?” Xiao ran asked.
he took the teacup from the first prince, but he did not drink it immediately. instead, the lid of the cup slowly began to swing.
the first prince went straight to the point and said, ” I know you have the Nirvana Saint pill. It’s a pill refined by dan wudao, an ancient Holy Land.
Xiao ran squinted his eyes and his gaze turned sharp in an instant. A huge pressure erupted from his body and pressed down violently.
the first prince welcomed them calmly without a trace of guilt. he said very straightforwardly, ” “The Treasury of the Ministry of Revenue was robbed, but I did not do it. This matter has become so big that with my power, it is not difficult to find out some information.”
whether a person was lying or not, one could tell by looking at his eyes.
no one had ever been able to hide a lie from xiao ran’s eyes, not even the first prince.
he retracted his aura.
Xiao ran didn’t say anything. He picked up his teacup and took a sip. Since the eldest Prince had chosen to speak, he would continue.
otherwise, he wasn’t worthy of the nirvana saint pill just because of his words!
he paused for a moment.
The first Prince seemed to find it difficult to speak, hesitating whether or not to say it. When he had come, he had clearly made up his mind, but now he was hesitating.
However, the opportunity to cure the plum Flower poison was right in front of him. If he missed it this time, he might not be able to cure the poison for the rest of his life.
with the passage of time, this poison would become more and more terrifying. if it completely deteriorated, not to mention the throne, even his life would be lost.
“I’m not afraid of you laughing at me, but I was also poisoned by this poison in a daze. When I investigated, I found out that this poison was passed on to me from my wife.”
Xiao ran was shocked and looked at him in disbelief. The impact of his words was too great.
This was the wife, not the concubine.
if that was the case, didn’t that mean that she was already unclean and had fallen into the trap of the mastermind?
no one would lie about this matter. it was not only about their reputation, but also about their ability.
” if it was the time when i was poisoned, i wouldn’t have said anything. but after such a long time, i’ve seen through it. the most important thing now is to detoxify the poison. if i don’t, everything will turn into bubbles. ” The first Prince said.
