The black-clad guards he brought with him drew their knives and stepped forward quickly.
Jiang Xiancao, having lost all his strength, collapsed on the snow, as weak as a lamb to be slaughtered.
She opened her eyes wide and watched the guard cut the sword without blinking. There was no fear of death in her eyes, only the determination after despair.
The sharp tip of the knife cut the skin on her slender wrist, and drops of bright red blood slid down the edge of the bowl, staining the white snow red. Jiang Xiancao's face became even paler.
Shen Tingsi looked at this scene, and a barely perceptible crack appeared on his originally cold expression, while the voices of the Jiang family members were heard in his ears.
The eldest son Jiang Jinyan did not forget to teach his sister at this time:
"After this time, you must change your jealousy and learn to be gentle and kind like Zhu'er."
The second young master Jiang Jinxing snorted coldly:
"You deserve the pain of bleeding. Let's see if you dare to harm Zhu'er again!"
The third son, Jiang Jinyi, was very thoughtful and said in a deep voice:
"The prescription the prince found clearly states that the medicinal ingredient must be fresh blood from a living person. If she dies before she collects ten bowls, what will happen to Zhu'er? Fourth brother is well versed in medicine. Do you have any way to help her survive?"
The fourth young master Jiang Jinan said with a smile:
"Don't worry, Third Brother. I've already prepared some blood-activating and life-saving medicine. I won't let her die like this."
The fifth young master Jiang Jinzhen seemed unable to bear to watch such a bloody scene. He closed his eyes and recited Buddhist scriptures devoutly, while his right hand slowly twirled the Buddhist beads, showing the demeanor of a master.
On the ground, Jiang Xiancao's pupils had lost focus, but the moment her eyes met Shen Tingsi's, she regained a moment of clarity.
The icy cold and strange look made Shen Tingsi's heart tremble slightly.
But he immediately sneered and asked darkly, "Why do you hate me?"
He is the noble Ninth Prince, and Jiang Xiancao is just a vicious woman with a cruel heart who harms her sisters.
She deserves it and doesn't deserve to hate him!
Just as this thought came into Shen Tingsi's mind, two bolts of lightning struck the already dark sky, landing on him and Jiang Xiancao at the same time.
The next moment, he and Jiang Xiancao lost consciousness together.
"Oh no! The prince was struck by lightning. Go get the imperial physician!"
