"I don't believe it. I want to see them."

Jiang Xuanyan, "Okay, if you eat something obediently, I'll let you see them."

Shen Ningzhu nodded weakly, and Jiang Xuanyan almost cried with joy.

He actually fed her personally for the first time. Shen Ningzhu didn't act pretentiously and swallowed it mouthful by mouthful with difficulty.

The burning sensation in my stomach finally subsided, and I felt much better. Strength gradually returned to my body.

After eating half a bowl of porridge, Shen Ningzhu turned her head away and stopped eating. Instead, she looked up at Jiang Xuanyan coldly.

"I've already eaten. It's your turn to fulfill your promise."

Jiang Xuanyan's body stiffened. "Not now. Once you recover, I'll let you..."

Before he could finish his words, the bowl in his hand had been snatched away by Shen Ningzhu.

Jiang Xuanyan was stunned for a moment, but did not stop him.

He thought that she was angry and it would be better for her to vent so that she wouldn't get hurt.

However, the expected pain and injury did not come, but was replaced by warmth on the top of the head.

She poured half a bowl of porridge onto his head and smashed the white glazed porcelain bowl hard on his forehead.

Bright red blood mixed with sticky rice porridge juice dripped down his hair, staining his black brocade robe.

There is a strong contrast between black and white, and white and red.

Grains of soft glutinous rice hung on his jet-black hair, making him look extremely disheveled.

The man's face was frozen as he stared at her from a distance.

Shen Ningzhu refused to give in, her chin held high as she looked at him with hatred in her eyes. Jiang Xuanyan had no doubt that if she hadn't been without food for so long, her hands and feet were limp and her strength wasn't enough, she would have picked up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground and slit his throat.

From birth to now, Jiang Xuanyan has never been treated like this.

Even if it was his beloved, he couldn't accept it for a while, and he stared at the other person with eyes like fire.

"Jiang Xuanyan, you will not die well."

What inconvenience? It was obviously a lie to her.

They are all dead, and he still dares to lie to her about such a thing. Is he still human?

Shen Ningzhu cried blood with every word, "Bitch, bitch, get out, I don't want to see you, get out..."

Jiang Xuanyan's veins popped up on the back of his hand, but seeing Shen Ningzhu's face full of tears and in agony, he clenched his palm again, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said softly,

"I'll go find someone to clean it up."

After a while, the door was pushed open again and two maids walked in.

He knelt down beside the bed, sobbing, "Madam..."

Hearing the familiar voice, Shen Ningzhu suddenly opened her eyes, and when she saw clearly that the people in front of her were Lingzhi and Shaoyao, the surprise in her eyes was indescribable.

"Why are you guys not dead?"

Could it be that what Jiang Xuanyan said was true? Or did he only kill some of them and leave some behind?

So who are the ones left, and how many are there?

The two shook their heads with tears in their eyes, "This servant is not dead, it is because this servant is useless that the Madam has suffered."

Shen Ningzhu smiled bitterly, sat up, pulled the two of them up, and asked them to sit on the edge of the bed.

"Life is already difficult for women in this world. Xiaoyi and I have Song Hanchuan's support. We have been working hard for three years and making many plans, but we were still easily defeated."

"In the face of power, what can you two little girls do? Being alive is already a difficult task."

"Tell me quickly, besides you two, where are the others? Are they still alive?"

The two shook their heads in confusion.

They had just been released from prison and had no idea where the other doors were or whether they were dead or alive.

"Madam, you have to cheer up. The young master and young lady are still so young. You must find them and save them from the fire!"

Shen Ningzhu also felt that it was correct.

She couldn't die yet. She had to find a way to rescue other living people from Jiang Xuanyan.

They were all implicated by her and were all innocent.

"Hurry, help me up and put on my makeup, then take me to find Jiang Xuanyan."

Seeing that Chen Ningzhu had recovered her vitality, both of them were very happy. They swiftly helped her to get up and supported her trembling body as she walked out of the door. They saw Jiang Xuanyan standing alone in front of the corridor with one hand behind his back facing them.

Hearing the noise, he didn't turn around, but just said lightly,

"Zhuzhu, I give up."

"I have released all the servants in the courtyard. Now they are all in their original positions, doing their own work, just like before."

"The two children were taken back to the capital by Song Hanchuan and Liu Zhiyi. Zhuzhu, I didn't touch them, really."

Shen Ningzhu: ...

Afraid that she wouldn't believe him, he gently clapped his palms, and soon, a familiar figure walked over.

The person who came was Chen Aniu.

“Sister Shen, you have suffered.”

Chen Aniu fell to his knees on the ground with a plop, and looked at Chen Ningzhu with red eyes.

Song Hanchuan left a lot of people for Chen Aniu, but how could these people compare with the royal shadow guards?

Not to mention, the courtyard was surrounded inside and outside, openly and secretly, by countless black-armored soldiers and the royal dragon and tiger guards.

After several twists and turns, not only did he fail to pass the message to Chen Ningzhu, but he also accidentally exposed his whereabouts.

To his surprise, Jiang Xuanyan did not kill them, but asked someone to bring him to see Shen Ningzhu.

Chen Aniu was overjoyed, feeling that he had finally accomplished his mission.

When she learned that everyone was still alive, Shen Ningzhu cried with joy. But when she heard that Jiang Xuanyan lied to her just to make a bet with Song Hanchuan, Shen Ningzhu's eyes turned red with anger.

The fist under the gauze sleeve was clenched tightly, and soon, the palm was wet.

What a bastard, he doesn't care about people's lives. He is really too much.

Since he is such a bitch, then just wait for her revenge!

"Zhuzhu, I didn't lie to you. Now you should believe me, right? I'm sorry, it was my fault before. From now on, let's live a good life and stop making trouble, okay?"

Jiang Xuanyan was still tall and slender, with his back straight. Only his narrow eyes were slightly watery, revealing his fragility and cautiousness.

But how is this possible?

Why can he hurt her whenever he wants and reconcile with her whenever he wants? What about the pain she has suffered in the past month?

"How do I know that he said this not because of your threat?"

Jiang Xuanyan frowned slightly.

"I can swear to you, or, when you recover, we can return to Beijing together. Once you see that they are safe and sound, you will naturally believe what I say."

Shen Ningzhu rolled her eyes in her heart.

Return to Beijing? No way.

Now that he had left, how could she let him go back so easily?

If she was destined to be involved with him, then she had to take control of her own destiny and become the queen mother.

I believe Xiaoyi returned to Beijing for this purpose.

If that was the case, she couldn't let that bastard return to Beijing. Not only that, she had to delay him as long as possible to give Xiaoyi and the others enough time.

As for Jiang Xuanyan who ignored the dog in front of her, sorry, she had had enough of him. It would be best to kill him if he was a troublesome thing.
