Chapter 244 I am sorry for you
The aroma of tea wafts in the air.
Chen Xiang pushed one of the cups in front of Shang Xi.
"Let's have some tea first."
Shang Xi didn't touch the cup of tea.
He just stared at Chen Xiang coldly, "What is your plan in inviting me here?"
"What does the letter mean by mentioning Divine Doctor Yu?"
Chen Xiang did not answer.
He picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"You were the one who planted someone in the mansion to poison me, right? Unfortunately, I used the method of food incompatibility when I was a teenager."
Upon hearing this, Shang Xi grabbed the hem of his sleeves tightly with his hands.
"When did you find out?"
Shang Xi still stared at him coldly without answering.
Chen Xiang looked at him and tapped his fingers twice on the table.
"After Concubine Rong passed away, everyone who knew about it was dealt with. How did you know this?"
Shang Xi looked at him coldly, "Prime Minister Shen hasn't answered my question yet."
Chen Xiang sighed, "Do you really have to talk to your father like this?"
Shang Xi sneered, "I am of royal blood and listed in the royal genealogy. How can Prime Minister Chen claim to be related to me?"
Chen Xiang looked at Shang Xi as if he was looking at a naughty child and shook his head gently.
"You don't know your real name yet, do you?"
Shang Xi's sarcastic expression froze for a moment when he heard this.
His real name...
Did he have his own name?
The wound that had been healed and scabbed was torn open again with blood.
Shang Xi felt a sharp pain in his chest and could hardly breathe.
He pinched his palms, trying to stay calm, but he felt his whole body gradually becoming weak.
He suddenly looked up at Chen Xiang.
Chen Xiang was still holding the teacup, acting like a leisurely and upright gentleman.
He said, "Your original name was Shen Linghui. Your mother gave it to you before you were born. It means that your character is as beautiful as the pure voice of jade."
Shang Xi looked at the incense on the table.
He gritted his teeth and said, "You... put drugs in the incense!"
Chen Xiang said, "Ling Hui, you are very cautious, but if you are too cautious, you will suffer."
At this time, Shang Xi still had something to understand. The incense was spiked with a drug that would make people feel weak, and the tea could detoxify it.
He reached for the tea and drank it in one gulp.
Chen Xiang shook his head. "It's useless. The medicinal effects of the incense have already spread through your body. Drinking tea now won't neutralize the effects."
The teacup in Shang Xi's hand fell to the ground.
With a "pop", it shattered into pieces, with broken porcelain scattered everywhere.
Shang Xi touched his right wrist with his left hand.
He looked at Chen Xiang, and suddenly softened his tone, his voice becoming choked and aggrieved: "Father is worried that I will know and leak the secret, so he wants to cut off the roots?"
Shang Xi's red eyes looked exactly like his wife's when she was young.
Chen Xiang unconsciously softened his attitude.
"You are my son, how could I kill you?"
"I just want to ask you for a favor."
Shang Xi felt relieved after hearing this, "Is it for Shen Zhiyi..."
Apart from Shen Zhiyi, Shang Xi couldn't think of any other place where Shen Xiang would need his help.
Could it be that he asked Xiao Ning to be wary of Shen Zhiyi in the letter, and she listened to it.
Now the political situation is turbulent, and he didn't say much. Xiao Ning was hesitant, so he controlled Shen Zhiyi?
Thinking of this, Shang Xi couldn't help but feel happy.
The corners of his mouth turned up a little bit.
It turns out that Shen Zhiyi is not that important in her heart.
Being as meticulous as Chen Xiang, he naturally noticed Shang Xi's micro-expression, but he did not think too much about it. He just thought that Shang Xi was relieved after knowing that he would not be killed.
This child.
He is his biological father, how could he kill him?
When her daughter died young, Concubine Rong insisted on leaving the palace and said she wanted to take the prince away. That was the blood of the late emperor, so how could she be allowed to act so recklessly?
No matter how much he tried to persuade her, Rong Fei refused to agree, saying that she would only stay if he sent his son to the palace to pretend to be a princess and let her raise him.
Rong Fei was certain that he was reluctant to send his own son in.
However, she underestimated his loyalty to the late emperor.
Chen Xiang looked at his beautiful, fragile son who looked no different from a girl and sighed softly.
"I am sorry for you. I will make it up to you in the future."
Shang Xi lowered his eyes, hiding the sneer in his eyes.
He continued in a tone of grievance and sadness, "Father, can you tell your son, what will become of me after Dr. Yu's medicine... stops?"
"After you stop taking the medicine, you will grow up, but taking it for many years will make you unable to conceive."
Chen Xiang stood up and walked towards Shang Xi.
"But don't worry. When the great things are accomplished and the world is at peace, your father will have someone find Divine Doctor Yu to remove the poison and nurse you back to health."
Shang Xi breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what Shen Xiang said.
I hope it doesn't become disfigured.
He and Xiao Ning are both men, so it is impossible for them to have children, and it is impossible for him to touch anyone else except Xiao Ning.
So if you can’t have children, then you can’t have children.
He doesn't care.
As for the country, there are so many people with the surname Shang. When he passes away, he can just choose a suitable successor.
It can be regarded as returning the kingdom to the merchants.
So, when Prime Minister Shen stood in front of him, Shang Xi raised his hand and decisively pulled the trigger.
"call out--"
A short arrow flew out from his sleeve and pierced Chen Xiang's heart.
The pain on Chen Xiang's face froze.
He lowered his head and looked at his heart in disbelief. A short arrow was stuck in his left chest, and blood was flowing out along the arrow.
Minister Shen held onto the table, slowly raised his head, and looked at Shang Xi.
"You...you actually want to kill your father?"
Shang Xi leaned against the chair and could feel the strength in his body rapidly draining away.
Hearing this, he curled his lips and smiled sarcastically.
"Isn't it all thanks to my father's teaching? I'm just applying what I learned."
Shang Xi emphasized the word "father" with a mocking tone.
Chen Xiang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then laughed out loud.
"You are truly worthy of being my good son!"
After shouting, he called out sternly, "Someone come!"
Shang Xi frowned when he saw that he was shot by the sleeve crossbow but still had so much energy.
When Xiao Ning gave him this sleeve crossbow, he said it was very powerful.
He also only shot at a few wind chimes hanging from the eaves.
I've never shot it at a living thing, so I don't know its exact power.
Just now, a blow.
Now I want to use more strength to shoot him a few more times, but I can't.
The medicinal effect of this incense is very strong.
His body was as soft as mud at this moment.
Even moving my fingers felt laborious.
He could only keep his eyes open and watch the door being pushed open and people outside pouring in.
"Prime Minister!"
Someone saw Shen Xiang injured and exclaimed.
Chen Xiang waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Go back to the mansion first."
As he spoke, he raised his hand, grasped the short arrow, and pulled it out with force.
The short arrow was pulled out with broken flesh, and the blood flowed faster.
His men hurriedly sprinkled hemostatic powder on the wound and tore off strips of cloth to help him bandage it up.
The restaurant is the private property of the Shen family.
The guards from the princess's mansion who came with Shang Xi were standing guard outside.
Shang Xi was seen being carried out by someone as if he was being held hostage.
They drew their swords and confronted the Shen family guards.
The chief guard pointed his sword at Prime Minister Chen and shouted angrily, "Prince Chen, you are so bold! You actually dared to kidnap the princess!"
"Let go of the princess!"
"Otherwise, we will make sure you die here!"
