She was now incredibly grateful that a transit point had been built in Xishu. Only then could messages be transmitted in a timely manner.
Looking at the few words written on the leaf, Han Luoxue's face turned as black as if it could drip water.
Xiyao Kingdom, you truly deserve to die!
It's so far away, even at top speed, it would take at least ten days to get there. And with her heavy body, the journey would be even slower.
Han Luoxue frowned, while Zhou Yuan paced back and forth anxiously.
"Xue girl, what should we do now? Is it too late to send Doctor Xu there?"
He had barely finished speaking when he slapped his forehead hard, looking utterly dejected, and said, "Too late, absolutely too late!"
The people over there said they only have three days.
It would take three days to fly from here to Xishu.
"Let's call Doctor Xu over first."
For a moment, Han Luoxue was at a loss, and Zhou Yuan basically ran out to call for help. They were all in Le'an Town, and it would take them some time to get over.
Han Luoxue hurriedly focused her attention on the spatial system, anxiously opened the shop, and stared intently at the items on it.
Unfortunately, after looking for a long time, I couldn't find anything that could cure the poison.
Suddenly, she remembered the ten antidote pills she had taken a few days ago.
Meng Jiaojiao was given one pill at the time, and she still has nine pills left.
The description of the antidote pill is that it can cure all poisons, but its effectiveness depends on the strength of the poison.
If one isn't enough, try two. She has a total of nine. That should be enough, right?
Han Luoxue's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly took out the antidote pill, walked to the desk, picked up a pen, and wanted to write down how to take the antidote pill, but at this moment her hands were trembling and she could not hold the pen steadily.
"Little Xue, what are you doing?"
Zhou Yuan sent someone to Le'an Town, and when he returned, he saw Han Luoxue anxiously trying to write something, but unable to hold the pen steady.
He knew that Han Luoxue must be in a lot of turmoil right now. Zhou Yuan felt a pang of heartache for her, seeing her so flustered despite her usual composure.
"Zhou Yuan, can you help me write this?"
Han Luoxue put down her brush with a helpless expression; her mind was in turmoil. Although she knew that products made by the system were generally safe.
But that's Chen-gege's life.
She took out the medicine from her hand, stared at it intently, and said in a low voice, "This kind of antidote pill is usually fine. Let Brother Chen take it one by one."
"Feed them one pill every two hours. There are nine pills in total. If they are all eaten and there is still no effect, then agree to their request."
Han Luoxue knew that the conditions over there must be outrageous. But compared to Han Yuchen's life, what did those conditions matter?
She couldn't let anything happen to Han Yuchen, absolutely not!
Zhou Yuan was also in a heavy mood, gripping the pen tightly.
"Snow Girl, I believe in your things. Han Yuchen will be fine!"
Han Luoxue nodded vigorously; she too needed to believe in herself.
The medicine had already been delivered, along with the letter. But Han Luoxue couldn't fall asleep.
They didn't tell anyone about Han Yuchen's accident, not even the emperor in the palace.
Han Luoxue still wanted to wait a little longer. Nothing was said that night, and she barely slept a wink.
The next morning, as dawn broke, the sky began to lighten. But no news had yet arrived. Han Luoxue closed her eyes slightly, her heart filled with even greater anxiety.
Throughout the night, she glanced at the system shop more than once.
Unfortunately, the information on the system still hadn't been updated. Han Luoxue had tried to communicate with the system to see if she could get an antidote, but the system seemed to be dead this time. No matter how much Han Luoxue threatened it, she didn't hear that familiar reply.
After a night's sleep, Han Luoxue looked haggard.
When Zhou Jie arrived, she was startled to see Xue'er like this. "Little Xue'er, what did you do last night? How did you get yourself like this? Are you alright?"
Meeting Zhou Jie's concerned gaze, Han Luoxue could only smile helplessly: "It's nothing!!"
...
"Awake? His Highness's hand has finally moved?"
As soon as it was light, Han Yuchen's hand moved a few times. Xu Liang, who had been watching him closely, almost jumped up excitedly when he saw it.
This is really something. When he first received these pills, he couldn't quite believe it.
After all, how could such a small pill possibly be enough to detoxify?
Who would have thought that after taking only four pills, the prince would actually wake up?
Now, Xu Liang could finally relax.
Wu Linghua also came over, and seeing that the Crown Prince had already reacted, she hurriedly stepped forward and whispered, "Cousin!"
"This is……"
Han Yuchen finally woke up, still a little confused.
Xu Liang hurriedly recounted the recent events, and upon hearing that Xiyao Kingdom had actually poisoned the letter, Han Yuchen's gaze turned cold.
"Your Highness, it's good that you're awake. We don't need to worry about the poison anymore!"
"The people of Xiyao have gone too far! Their crown prince is in our hands, yet they still dare to use such despicable methods!"
Xu Liang was still very angry, but Han Yuchen sneered, "Our methods were too mild!"
Xu Liang hurriedly nodded and echoed, "Your Highness, the men Xi Wujue brought are their elite troops. I think these five thousand men absolutely cannot be sent back!"
Xu Liang was now intent on killing him. In the past, Han Yuchen would never have agreed.
After all, these people had already been arrested and were powerless to fight back. He still felt uneasy about killing so many people at once.
In the past, he was ruthless and decisive. He could kill five thousand people, or even ten thousand or twenty thousand, without batting an eye!
But ever since he met Han Luoxue, especially after learning that she was pregnant, Han Yuchen's personality has become much gentler.
"Don't rush, go see Xi Wujue first!"
Han Yuchen sneered: "Deal with those people after you've seen him!"
Han Yuchen understood this principle better than anyone: mercy to the enemy is the greatest cruelty to oneself.
If these 5,000 elite troops were really released, who knows how many of our own people would be killed.
Ask them to surrender? Even if someone were truly willing, Han Yuchen didn't dare believe it.
...
"Your Highness, is the poison in Ouyang Zhenzhong's body really that potent?"
Upon hearing that Ouyang Zhen might only have three days left, Ouyang Fu desperately hoped that the other side wouldn't agree.
If it lasts more than three days and Ouyang Zhen dies, even if he betrays the country, what can the Emperor do to him?
He will be the only one suitable to inherit the throne. Even if the emperor is furious, he cannot kill him.
"With my father's intervention, success is assured!"
The Crown Prince never expected his father to be so powerful.
Ouyang Zhen probably never dreamed that the letter seeking peace was poisoned.
Heh, when it comes to scheming, Ouyang Zhen is no match for his father.
His father was always very cunning, and even though he had become a prisoner, his father still had a way to turn things around.
The former crown prince had cooperated with him, and he had leverage over him.
The new crown prince...
Hmph, without the antidote, there is only death ahead. Have I lost now?
No, he was the one who ultimately won.
"Do you still want to be the crown prince?"
