In the bedroom of the inn, Su Nanxing and Li Shuxue sat on both sides of the table, with Su Yi and Li Shuxue's servants standing behind them.
Su Nanxing spoke first: “I have thought about this for a long time, the emperor of the capital has tried his best to kill you.
Either there is something extraordinary in you, or one of you must die.
And you insist on going to the border to see the young prince, which shows that you have something to negotiate with the young prince.
At least we can be sure that the young prince will protect you because of this thing."
Su Nanxing took a sip of tea and felt that Li Shuxue was a little nervous. He continued slowly, "Besides, the Prince of Zhennan is clearly in the capital, but you are going far away instead of near.
Let me guess, it’s not that the Prince of Zhennan cannot protect you, but that he cannot trust you.
But why did the young prince trust you when we got to the border?"
Su Nanxing had a bold guess. He put down the water cup, and with a thud, it seemed to hit Li Shuxue's heart.
Li Shuxue couldn't help wanting to look back, but fortunately someone behind him reminded her and she was able to control herself.
Su Nanxing looked directly at the servant behind Li Shuxue and said, "Dusun, the director of the Imperial Hospital, what do you have that the young prince wants?"
Su Nanxing first suspected that Ma Zhuang's master was someone else when he was in space.
At that time, a group of men in black surrounded them, and Li Shuxue, the only grandson and master, was actually standing in front of the servant.
At that time, Su Nanxing was thinking that perhaps Ma Zhuang's real master was the servant behind Li Shuxue.
When you go out, it is indeed possible to hide your identity for safety.
And Li Shuxue's small action of wanting to ask for help from the person behind him just now also made Su Nanxing more certain of his guess.
Seeing his identity exposed, the servant behind Li Shuxue raised his head and looked directly at Su Nanxing: "What I have in my hand is the life-saving medicine for the young prince.
If you can take me to the border and see the young prince, I will enjoy endless wealth and glory."
When Li Shuxue saw the young master speaking, she quickly stood up, asked the young master to sit down, and then stood behind the young master with a sigh of relief.
"Let's get to know each other again, Li Shining. He is my personal servant Xue Shu." Li Shining said.
Xue Shu smiled and said, "Just call me Xiaoshu. I prefer the name Shu, which means "big tree."
Su Nanxing: "I'm from Nanqing City, Su Nanxing, and this is my bodyguard Su Yi.
As for taking you to the border, it depends on how much the medicine you have is worth. "
Su Nanxing had a bold guess. Could it be that this person had the antidote to the poison that Gu Jingmo was poisoned with?
Otherwise, Su Nanxing couldn't think of anything that could be called the little prince's life-saving medicine.
Li Shining frowned, "Even if I told you, you might not believe it.
Just like I said, the young prince is poisoned, and I happen to have the antidote, would you believe it?"
"I believe it!"
Su Nanxing's affirmative tone surprised Li Shining. "Why do you believe it?"
"Then if I say that I am the young prince's fiancé, will you believe it?" Su Nanxing asked back.
Li Shining's eyes widened. "I, I really don't believe you're a man."
Su Nanxing: "So what if he's a man?"
Li Shining wanted to speak several times, but didn't know how to refute.
Finally, he could only say in frustration, "If you are really the young prince's fiancé, then you should protect us to the border."
Su Nanxing thought for a moment, "Where did you get the medicine in your hand? Did the emperor give it to your family?"
Li Shining shook his head: "This medicine was given to me by my grandfather, I don't know where it came from.
But my grandfather said that this medicine could save the young prince, and asked me to use it in exchange for the young prince's protection."
Su Nanxing asked: "Why don't you look for the Prince of Zhennan? As far as I know, the Prince of Zhennan is in the capital."
Li Shining: "Prince Zhennan doesn't believe this medicine is an antidote, but he is willing to give it a try.
Without the help of the Prince of Zhennan, I would never have been able to leave the capital, nor would I have been able to get here."
"So the emperor sent so many people to hunt you down because of the medicine in your hand." Su Nanxing asked.
Li Shining nodded. "My grandfather didn't tell me much, but I don't have anything else of value on me except the medicine."
Su Nanxing thought, it is more than just valuable.
If Tingyu's little follower, the head of the Guo family, knew that you had the antidote, he would worship you.
"How many doses of the antidote do you have?" Su Nanxing looked at the other party expectantly, hoping to hear the answer he wanted.
Li Shining seemed confused as to why the other party asked this question. He frowned and said, "One copy."
Su Nanxing murmured, "There's only one copy."
"Could it be that someone else was poisoned?" Li Shining asked.
Su Nanxing nodded: "If you have more antidotes, maybe you can get more people's protection, or exchange them for more money."
Li Shining: "The Prince of Zhennan is enough. As for money, I don't lack it either.
But I can try to replicate this antidote. I'm quite talented in this area."
Su Nanxing asked: "Will it damage the antidote?"
Li Shining was unsure: "I have never opened the antidote yet, because Grandpa said that it can only be opened after seeing the little prince.
And the little prince must take it immediately, otherwise the effect of the medicine may be lost.
So until now, I still don’t know whether the bottle contains water, pills, or powder?”
Su Nanxing: "Since it has to be taken immediately, it must be impossible to copy the antidote."
Li Shining disagreed: "If you just let me smell it, I can definitely make the same antidote!
My grandfather said that I am the most talented and powerful person in our family!"
"I hope you can make the same antidote. There are other people in this world who need this antidote." Su Nanxing's voice was a little heavy.
Li Shining immediately thought of the other princes. They had always been loyal to the royal family, perhaps not out of loyalty.
It’s because only the royal family has the antidote that can keep them alive.
Then, was it because his grandfather discovered something that he was sentenced to death by the emperor?
After all, to make an antidote, a royal physician is definitely needed.
And his grandfather was the most powerful physician in the Imperial Medical Bureau.
At this time, Li Shining thought a little further. Could this poison be made by the Li family?
Perhaps my grandfather risked his life to send me out of the capital so that I could research the antidote and save those who were tortured by the poison.
Is it atonement?
Or is it simply the kindness of a doctor?
Or, just keep yourself alive?
"Do you know who made that poison?" Li Shining asked.
Su Nanxing: "I don't know the answer to this question. When we get to the border, ask Gu Jingmo. He might know."
Li Shining: "So you agree to take us to the border?"
Su Nanxing nodded, "But for safety, you have to follow my instructions along the way."
Li Shining looked at Su Nanxing and felt that the other party's smile was a bit malicious, but he still agreed: "I will follow your arrangements."
