Chapter 142: Beating up Xiao Yunqi
Xiao Yunshuo said calmly, "I know how to handle this matter. You can go and do your job."
Yuan Xu knew that it was useless to talk, so he had no choice but to agree to do the job.
The medicine that Xiao Yunshuo wanted to refine was naturally the penicillin that Chen Fenghe had refined in the town before.
At that time, he and Yuan Xu participated in the whole process. Later, he asked Chen Fenghe in detail, and Chen Fenghe told him the refining method in detail and even wrote a note to him.
He used the notes she wrote to ask the gambling house owner to arrange to start secretly refining the medicine yesterday.
Typhoid fever was raging in Qizhou City. As the crown prince, he naturally could not turn a blind eye or a deaf ear for fear of exposing his whereabouts.
When Chen Fenghe walked outside, there was actually a sedan waiting for her. A flash of coldness flashed across Chen Fenghe's eyes. This bastard was quite thoughtful.
However, Chen Fenghe did not intend to ride in this sedan chair.
She was an exiled female prisoner who was taken away by the officials in public. She was already being criticized. If she sat in this sedan chair, it would further confirm the reason why she was taken there.
This sedan was probably originally prepared to humiliate her.
"Madam Shen, please get in the sedan chair." The leading officer made a gesture of invitation, with mockery and disdain in his eyes.
Chen Fenghe smiled faintly and said, "I am an exiled imperial prisoner. How can I ride in the sedan chair sent by the prefect? I'd better walk."
The leading officer sneered, "Madam Shen, please stop being so coy. The prefect specially sent a sedan chair to pick you up. He's showing you respect. Don't refuse a toast and then drink a forfeit!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Fenghe glanced at the officer and soldier, still smiling calmly: "If that's what you say, sir, then I dare not sit in it. After all, I'm a wanted criminal of the imperial court, and I'm actually riding in the prefect's sedan chair through the city. If it gets out, my reputation will be ruined, which is a small matter, but the prefect's reputation will be ruined, which is a big deal. To put it more seriously, the prefect actually sent a sedan chair to pick up me, the former Crown Princess. Could it be that the prefect is deliberately trying to redress the Crown Prince's injustice?"
When the officers and soldiers heard this, their faces changed color. This... isn't just a sedan chair? Is it necessary to put such a big hat on it?
The leading soldier coughed twice and said, "You...if you don't want to sit down, then don't sit down! Then walk."
Having said that, he took Shen Fenghe and headed towards the yamen.
After walking for a while, they arrived at the yamen. Chen Fenghe was taken to the back of the yamen and then turned into a house connected to the back door of the yamen.
She was taken into a room and made to wait.
Chen Fenghe pulled the door, but it was locked from the outside. She couldn't help but sigh, "Tsk!" Are they afraid that she will run away?
I finally have the chance to teach Xiao Yunqi a lesson, but she would be crazy to run away.
Chen Fenghe looked around, then took out a recorder from the space and hid it in his sleeve.
Whether it is useful or not is not discussed for now, let’s record it first.
After sitting for a while, the door was opened and people came in one after another, bringing a table full of food and wine.
Then, Xiao Yunqi walked in.
"All of you, please leave." Xiao Yunqi dismissed the people who came in, then smiled at Chen Fenghe, made a gesture of invitation, and said, "Sister, you have been wronged these past two days. As soon as I had some time, I thought of you, so I took the liberty to bring you here..."
Chen Fenghe interrupted him and asked with a half-smile, "Sister? Shouldn't you call me sister-in-law?"
A flash of coldness crossed Xiao Yunqi's face, but he quickly concealed it and explained, "Mei Xin is my concubine. Since you are my legitimate sister, I should naturally call you sister. As for the emperor's sister-in-law... the Crown Prince's rebellion is a foregone conclusion. It's better for you to draw a clear line between you and the Crown Prince!"
Tsk!
Xiao Yunshuo is his brother after all, but he doesn't even call him "royal brother". How shameless.
Chen Fenghe's eyes flashed with mockery, but she didn't show it on her face. She only answered the first half of his sentence and said lightly: "If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten that I have a biological father and a half-sister. How are they?"
Xiao Yunqi smiled and said, "All is well. I know you're worried about me. When the time is right, I will definitely send someone to bring you back to the capital, so you can no longer suffer this exile..."
Chen Fenghe raised her eyes to glance at him, smiled faintly and said, "I was exiled by the Emperor's order. Do you dare to disobey the imperial decree?"
Xiao Yunqi smiled and said, "Since there are no outsiders here, I will speak directly to you. I have been instrumental in slaying the rebellious crown prince, and I will soon be crowned crown prince and ascend the throne. Once I ascend the throne, I will immediately pardon you and make you a noble consort. What do you think?"
Chen Fenghe: “…”
Fortunately, she prepared a recorder in advance, otherwise she would have missed it.
Chen Fenghe continued, "The Emperor is in his prime. How can you be sure that you will ascend the throne soon? If you have to wait twenty or thirty years, I will be old and faded..."
Xiao Yunqi laughed heartily and said, "Sister, you're even more worried about me than I am? Don't worry, even the Crown Prince has been tricked. That old immortal..."
Having said this, Xiao Yunqi also realized that something was wrong and turned to look at Chen Fenghe gloomily.
I was so proud of myself that I actually said these words...
Whatever. At worst, after the fun, I could just kill him and silence him. No one else would hear it anyway.
Although she is so beautiful, it would be a pity to kill her.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yunqi laughed heartily a few times, raised his hand to touch Chen Fenghe's shoulder, and said, "Sister, you know my heart. Let's not talk about this anymore."
Chen Fenghe dodged calmly and said with a smile, "Your Highness Prince Jin, please respect yourself. After all... you are my sister's husband..."
Xiao Yunqi was somewhat displeased upon hearing this, and he could only say patiently, "I was too impatient. Come, sister, you must have endured a lot of hardships on this journey of exile. This table of delicacies, fine wines and delicious food may not be as good as those in the palace, but sister, please eat some first to fill your stomach..."
Chen Fenghe sat down obediently.
Xiao Yunqi immediately poured a glass of wine for Chen Fenghe: "Sister, this is a toast to you."
Chen Fenghe had no choice but to raise his glass and drink it all in one gulp.
Xiao Yunqi watched her drink it without blinking, a triumphant smile on his lips.
Chen Fenghe casually picked up the wine pot and Xiao Yunqi's wine glass, and gently stroked the rim of the glass with her slender hand. Then she poured a glass of wine and said with a smile: "It is impolite not to reciprocate. I also offer a glass to His Royal Highness Prince Jin."
Xiao Yunqi looked at Chen Fenghe's beautiful face with lustful eyes, raised the glass, and dipped the silver ring on his right ring finger in the wine inadvertently before drinking it with confidence.
Chen Fenghe couldn't help but groan inwardly, "If he's stupid, he could be a little more stupid, but he still acted so cautiously."
Fortunately, she used a high-concentration sedative, not poison, otherwise, it would be troublesome if he caught her.
Although Xiao Yunqi sent assassins to assassinate them many times along the way, she naturally did not want to kill him.
But we certainly can't do it now, otherwise wouldn't we be asking for trouble and be vulnerable?
By then, won’t that dog emperor be happy to take advantage of the situation and execute them directly with an imperial decree?
After drinking, Xiao Yunqi said in a polite manner: "Sister, eat some food. Eat more, otherwise your body may not be able to bear it soon..."
Chen Fenghe: “…”
Could this be any greasier?
As expected, when men get greasy, they are not different from modern times or ancient times...
Chen Fenghe didn't hesitate to pick up the chopsticks and started eating.
To be honest, this prefect really knows how to enjoy life. The chef's cooking skills are quite good, much better than those in the inn.
Xiao Yunqi didn't move his chopsticks, but just watched Chen Fenghe eat with a smile, waiting for the effect of the medicine to appear.
He put some aphrodisiac in the drinks and food.
After a while, the chopsticks in Chen Fenghe's hand fell to the table with a "crack". She turned to look at Xiao Yunqi with confusion and charm, and asked in a delicate voice: "Your Highness Prince Jin, what am I..."
Then, he suddenly fell asleep on the table.
Xiao Yunqi was delighted and stood up suddenly, ready to do something flirtatious to Shen Fenghe.
However, as soon as he stood up, he felt dizzy and sleepy, and his eyelids were drooping.
What... happened? Why is he suddenly so...
Before he could finish his sentence, his body fell to the ground with a thud.
After making sure that Xiao Yunqi was asleep, Chen Fenghe stood up and kicked him hard, followed by several kicks, which made Xiao Yunqi's face look like a pig's head.
"Whoa, you dare to covet my sister! I'll beat you to death!" Chen Fenghe kicked and cursed.
After a while, he was sweating profusely and panting.
It looked like the spring fever was about to set in. To deceive Xiao Yunqi, she did drink and eat.
Chen Fenghe calmed down and was about to give him one last kick, but she didn't expect the drug to take effect so quickly. Her legs went weak and she almost fell to the ground!
"Be careful!" A low and magnetic voice sounded, and the next second, her slender waist was encircled by a solid chest.
Chen Fenghe's vision was a little blurry. She looked up and was not surprised. She greeted him weakly, "Mr. Yun...Mr. Yun."
Xiao Yunshuo frowned slightly, picked her up, and said, "Just bear with it for a moment, I'll take you to see a doctor."
Chen Fenghe shook her head and said, "No need... I have the antidote."
Ever since she had fallen into trouble with Qin Huanhuan last time, Chen Fenghe had carefully studied the various spring medicines of this dynasty. She analyzed the ingredients of each and developed pills one by one, just in case.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have dared to fall for it so blatantly.
Xiao Yunshuo: "..."
As Chen Fenghe spoke, he took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve, but his hands were shaking so much that he could hardly hold the bottle.
Xiao Yunshuo snatched the porcelain bottle, poured out an antidote, placed it in the palm of his hand, and fed it directly to her.
Chen Fenghe could hardly lift his hand, so he took the medicine on his hand.
The warm lips touched his palm lightly, as if a soft feather was brushing past, and Xiao Yunshuo inexplicably felt itchy in his palm and heart.
He lowered his eyes to glance at Chen Fenghe's flushed cheeks, then coughed and turned away.
Now...is not the time for sentimental things.
Although it is a special medicine, it still takes a few minutes to take effect.
Chen Fenghe could only lie weakly in Xiao Yunshuo's arms. Just as she struggled to move away a little, Xiao Yunshuo scolded her in a low voice: "Don't move."
He was a man of vigor and blood. Now Shen Fenghe's eyes were blurry and full of spring. If she dared to move again, he couldn't guarantee what he would do...
Chen Fenghe was speechless after being scolded, but thinking that it would only take a few minutes, it would be over if he endured it, he stopped moving.
After a while, Chen Fenghe revived with full health, jumped up, and said, "Let's go. If we're any later, he'll wake up. Oh, and do you want to punch him a few times to vent your anger?"
Xiao Yunshuo: "..."
Xiao Yunshuo lowered his eyes and looked at Xiao Yunqi, who was beaten black and blue on the ground by Shen Fenghe. He suddenly remembered the scene when the skinny and weak Xiao Yunqi followed behind him when he was a child, calling him "Crown Prince" and "Brother Royal".
He was named the crown prince since he was young. Compared with other princes, the rules for the duties of the tutor and attendants were all different. Therefore, when other brothers saw him, they were always more respectful and fearful than friendly. Xiao Yunqi's clinging to him really made him happy.
Therefore, from childhood to adulthood, he has always been good to Xiao Yunqi, and tried his best to promote him if he had any work or merit. Otherwise, his mother would not have been made a concubine so quickly.
It’s a pity that some people are greedy and want to swallow an elephant.
He called his fifth brother "Crown Prince, Royal Brother" all the way up to the eldest, but in the end he betrayed him for the throne.
Xiao Yunshuo quickly drew out his sword and pressed it against Xiao Yunqi's throat.
Chen Fenghe was startled and quickly stopped him, saying, "You... calm down. Just beat him up today to vent your anger. If you kill him, I'll be the one to take the blame..."
Xiao Yunshuo raised his eyes to glance at Chen Fenghe, then sheathed his sword and said calmly, "What's the point of just beating a guy like that? Killing him with one sword would be more satisfying. However, he's still somewhat useful right now, so let's spare his life for now."
Chen Fenghe thought about it and roughly guessed what Xiao Yunshuo meant by "useful".
After all, there are more than one fifth prince competing for the throne. With him, the most arrogant one, temporarily standing in front, the other princes and the dog emperor might notice later that the prince might still be alive.
Xiao Yunshuo said, "It's not advisable to stay here for long. Let's leave now."
Chen Fenghe had originally planned to leave through the space after beating the man up. Of course, she wouldn't be stupid enough to leave any evidence behind, allowing Xiao Yunqi or the prefect to take the opportunity to cause trouble for the exile team.
Chen Fenghe said, "Wait a moment."
As she spoke, she took out another porcelain bottle from her bosom, pulled out a pill, then pried open Xiao Yunqi's mouth and fed it to him.
The corners of Xiao Yunshuo's mouth twitched.
How many kinds of medicine did she have on her body?
After holding back for a while, Xiao Yunshuo couldn't help but ask, "What did you feed him?"
Chen Fenghe clapped his hands and stood up. Without hiding anything, he said, "It's a poison made from forget-me-nots. It can cause temporary amnesia. It won't be life-threatening, but it will make him forget everything that just happened, including having the officials bring me in. That way, my beating him up won't be exposed."
Xiao Yunshuo: "..."
