Chapter 29: Life at the cost
This sentence means that Shen Sui's ambition and plot are all exposed to Wu Chun!
Knowing this is very scary, because Shen Sui might kill her one day to silence others!
Wu Chun's fingers are cold, her blood is cold, Shen Sui's hand holding her is also cold, and she unconsciously shrinks back, but Shen Sui's sharp eyes are raised and staring at her, so Wu Chun dare not move again.
Wu Chun opened her mouth, and her voice trembled a little, whether because of the palpitations of committing a heinous crime and killing the prince of Daliang, or because she knew about Shen Sui's ambition to become emperor, "I promise... I won't tell anyone... I, I swear, if I break this oath..."
Before she could finish, Shen Sui put his index finger on her lips.
It was a gesture of silence.
"Shh."
After Shen Sui wiped her hand thoroughly, he said slowly, "Husband and wife are of the same mind, so it should be like this."
Wu Chun was even more afraid in her heart. She had been pretending carefully in front of Shen Sui for a year, and today she was completely exposed - whose delicate little princess dared to use poison and dagger to kill the second prince?
She didn't know if Shen Sui would do something to her in anger.
Perhaps he saw her uneasiness, Shen Sui's dark eyes turned, leaned over and bit her earlobe and gently rubbed it. The warm and moist touch made Wu Chun tremble. He whispered in her ear again, and his breath tickled her ear, making her shrink her neck involuntarily.
"Have you seen Xue Shoude?"
Wu Chun shook her head subconsciously.
But suddenly she realized that Shen Sui came to find Xue Shoude, and his target was the same as hers, but how did he suspect Xue Shoude?
After Shen Sui confirmed that she had no other injuries, he helped her stand up, "You live in the inn opposite? Go back to the inn first and give me the remaining poison powder. There is an umbrella at the door."
Wu Chun did as he was told and returned to the inn in the rumbling thunder and rain.
The black-clad men who were searching the inn had been captured by the Dali Temple. Except for a timid man, the rest bit their tongues and stammered out the order from Shen Gong, but it was obvious that he didn't know much. Those who couldn't get the key information were killed.
When Wu Chun entered, the people from the Dali Temple were very respectful and didn't stop her.
As soon as they returned to the room, Jinglian and Yuli came up to him and cried, "Your Highness... You really worried us to death! We were really afraid that something bad would happen to you, and we would have to commit suicide to atone for our sins!"
Wuchun still looked pale and had not recovered from her shock, with a few strands of hair hanging messily on her cheeks. The two maids had no choice but to wipe her face and change her clothes. They tacitly did not ask Wuchun what she had done, and Wuchun did not intend to tell them.
While changing clothes, Yuli saw the blood-soaked cloth on Wuchun's arm and cried out in surprise. At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
A dark shadow was reflected on the paper on the door. The shadow was tall and straight, with broad shoulders.
The two maids didn't know who was outside, so they looked at each other. Wu Chun recognized the person and said in a daze, "Just come in."

"Your Highness!"
Before Jinglian and Yuli could stop them, the door opened.
Shen Sui somehow got another key from the shopkeeper, so the door could be opened from the outside.
The moment she met Shen Sui's eyes, Wu Chun suddenly realized why Jinglian and Yuli screamed.
She was still naked!
Shen Sui's pupils shrank in an instant, as if he was dazzled by the sudden rise of lights. His sight gradually became hot and fell on Wu Chun. It seemed that his sight was real and could almost burn several holes in her smooth skin.
Shen Sui seemed much calmer, his lips curled up with a hint of playfulness, "So impatient?"
"Get out!"
Wu Chun quickly grabbed her clothes and put them on herself, but the clothes were for the inner layer, only a thin layer, like a layer of gauze wrapped around her body, half-covered and half-transparent, just like looking at the Qingshan Pavilion through the drizzle, it would be a different charm, looking at Wu Chun in this way, it also added a bit of gracefulness, it seemed like seduction.
Shen Sui naturally couldn't leave, his eyes swept over Jinglian and Yuli, they didn't dare to stay here any longer, and hurriedly lowered their heads and went out, Shen Sui closed the door.
Wuchun took the opportunity to grab the clothes and put them on again, but in panic, she even dropped half of the thin clothes she was wearing.
The porcelain-white shoulders were round and smooth like jade, and one inch below was the spring light.
The round shoulders were held by a burning and slender hand.
Shen Sui took Wuchun up and carried her to the bed. Wuchun hit his chest, but his clothes fell off a lot. Shen Sui suddenly stopped, his eyes fell on a certain place, and said in an extremely ambiguous way: "If you move again, you can't cover anything." This book is exclusively compiled by the LK team for you.
Wuchun lowered her head and was startled. Sure enough, she didn't move. She thought to herself that she might suffer again tonight.
After Shen Sui put her down, he didn't get on the bed, but took out the medicine prepared by Jinglian and Yuli.
Fortunately, doctors usually bring some plasters with them when they go out, and they came in handy at this time.
After Shen Sui sat down, he held Wu Chun in his arms and began to treat her wounds.
The man's body was really tall, and he looked slender, but when he got close, he could make Wu Chun look petite. As for taking off his clothes, his clear and tight muscles made people secretly surprised. How come he was always thin, but he was so strong and powerful?
Wu Chun felt very oppressed, as if she was imprisoned in a small world by his hands, making her breathless.
It had been a long time since she and Shen Sui had been so peacefully cuddled together.
After Shen Sui treated her wound, he put the medicine on the small wooden table at the head of the bed, and then held Wu Chun's lower back with one hand. Wu Chun felt a wave of heat and numbness rising from her lower back, making her scalp numb.
"Don't..." she cried coquettishly.
Shen Sui liked her voice and moved his hand down again. Wu Chun suddenly grabbed his arm, biting his lip and shaking his head.
But Wu Chun only had one hand full of strength. Normally, she couldn't move Shen Sui's hand with both hands. How could she stop Shen Sui now?
She could only slowly open her mouth, raise her head, and breathe softly, like a person who floats to the surface from time to time to take a breath of air when drowning. The corners of her eyes were like the sky at dawn, a little stained with rouge red. She could only lean on his shoulder and hum softly and patiently.
Shen Sui whispered in her ear: "There's no one on this floor, so it's okay to speak louder."
Shen Sui knocked her down, but Wu Chun asked him at this time, "How did you get here?"
"You knew that Xue Shoude would be hunted down by Shen Gong, but you didn't expect why I came here?" Shen Sui rubbed his fingertips, which were shining under the flickering candlelight. He obviously didn't want to talk about these things at this time.
Wu Chun thought about it for a while.
The Dali Temple has been indifferent to this case for so many days. It must be to force the person behind the scenes to panic and make him reveal his true colors. The first person to leave the imperial capital must be highly suspicious.
As for the old feud between Shen Gong and Xue Shoude, if Shen Sui planted some spies or asked Xue Shoude's old friends to investigate carefully, he would be able to find out soon.
So the two of them met here.
"Aren't you curious..." Wu Chun was still afraid of Shen Sui. After all, after this incident, he could clearly see that she actually knew a lot of things that she shouldn't know.
Shen Sui held her lips and sucked, and let go for a long time, "What am I curious about?"
He looked as if it should be so, as if Wu Chun was born to be like this.
Then, to be his queen.
Wu Chun shuddered inexplicably when he thought of this. Suddenly he realized that what he liked was actually someone who could share the ups and downs with him and work together to consolidate the country.
And this time, she showed that she was smart and brave enough, and she was also ruthless, so she was very suitable to be his queen.
People like him really put interests first in everything.
Shen Sui clearly sensed her resistance. He was kissing her, took a deep breath, raised his head, and looked into her eyes again. Wu Chun was afraid that he would force himself again, so he closed his eyes, tilted his head to one side, and hugged him with both hands.
...
Shen Sui stayed in the guest house with Wu Chun for another day before leaving. For a whole day, the two of them hardly went out. Jing Lian and Yu Li would come up from downstairs from time to time and stand outside for a while, worried that something might happen to their master inside, but every time they had to go down with red faces.
As for how Shen Sui dealt with the mess in the teahouse and how he quietly hid it from the people in the Dali Temple, Wu Chun knew nothing.
Only after returning to the palace did she hear that Xue Shoude intended to murder the Second Prince. When the Second Prince captured Xue Shoude alive, Xue Shoude's spy in the inn distracted attention, and the assassin hired by the Second Prince was not by his side to protect him, so Xue Shoude took advantage of the opportunity to kill the Second Prince. But when he was about to escape, he was killed by the assassin who came back.
As for the poison powder, because the same poison was found on the corpse at the bottom of the well in Yinfeng Tower, and those two corpses were found to have done things for Xue Shoude before their death, the two things were connected, and it can be concluded that the poison was done by Xue Shoude.
Things developed according to Wu Chun's expectations.
Shen Gong fought with Xue Shoude, and she reaped the benefits.
But there were still some surprises. This book is exclusively compiled by the LK team
She never thought that Shen Sui would be involved in her plan, and if she hadn't had Shen Sui's knife, she might have really died at the hands of Shen Gong.
As fate would have it, in her previous life, she was wanted by Shen Gong, but Shen Sui didn't come to save her. In this life, when she tried to kill Shen Gong, Shen Sui came to save her.
Wu Chun just felt that fate was playing tricks on her.
The death of the second prince had a shaken impact on the court, but it could not change the situation that there were few princes, the Chen family was in control of the overall situation, and the emperor was restricted in every way.
This dynasty was in danger.
After returning to the palace, Wu Chun began to plan to leave the palace. In addition to Shen Ying and Xiao Huaiwen, she suddenly thought that there was actually another person she could ask for help.
——Ze'an King Shen Heng.
