Chapter 123 Identity Exposed
Shu Wan actually had nothing to say to Rong Chen, she just called his name over and over again, and Rong Chen never tired of answering her.
Finally, Shu Wan was so sleepy that he closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Rong Chen did not sleep all night, his dizziness started to hurt again, and with Shu Wan here, he could not sleep...! The next day, Rong Chen really went out to meet people with a pair of red and swollen lips.
I didn't go out today, I just stayed at home, so no outsiders knew about it.
Moreover, in the mansion, the servants would not dare to look up even if they saw it, let alone say anything.
The ones who were laughed at the most were Feng Ling and Yu Jianning.
Yu Jianning's expression was somewhat gloomy.
As for Fu Jin, he just shook his head and said nothing, then turned away.
Yuwenzhu came to find Rongchen, but Rongchen didn't see her. He just said that his mouth was a little swollen and he couldn't face others.
Yu Wenzhu was so anxious that she wanted to rush into the mansion to find out what was going on, but without Rong Chen's permission, she couldn't get in.
"Then you can tell me how the Imperial Master got injured!" Outside the Imperial Master's Mansion, Yuwen Zhu glared at Feng Ling in anger. If looks could kill, Feng Ling would have been killed by him eight hundred times by now.
"Princess, please wait a moment. I will go ask the master if he can tell you!" Feng Ling answered seriously, then turned around without waiting for Yu Wenzhu's response.
"You..." Yu Wenzhu almost vomited blood in anger. Is there any need to ask this?
In the pavilion, when Shu Wan heard Feng Ling coming over to report this, she was pinching a grape and putting it into her mouth. She laughed so hard when she heard it.
"Haha..." Shu Wan suddenly felt that Yu Wenzhu was also quite cute. "Feng Ling, go tell her that your master can't eat spicy food, but insists on eating spicy food. That's why it became like this! Tell her by the way not to eat random things!" She finally recovered.
"Master..." Feng Ling was aggrieved. How should he respond to what she said? The master was really not caring.
"Go tell him that I was bitten by a bug last night, and it was pretty serious!" Rong Chen said, glancing at Shu Wan, his tone somewhat brisk, "That bug was really abominable, I'm going to pull it out today and give it a good lesson!"
Shu Wan glared at him angrily.
"Yes!" Feng Ling, who felt that he was being fed a mouthful of dog food for no reason, looked at Rong Chen, then at Shu Wan, and then at Rong Chen again. He accepted the order with a wronged look and went down.
"How dare you call me a bug?" After Feng Ling left, Shu Wan started to settle the score with Rong Chen.
"I didn't say that!" Rong Chen looked at Shu Wan innocently, "Why did Wan Wan say that? This is what Wan Wan admitted herself. It has nothing to do with me!"
"Rong Chen, you..." Shu Wan couldn't argue with him and was extremely angry.
"Princess!" At this time, Xiaoju's voice came from the side. Turning around, I saw Xiaoju walking towards me with two plates of pastries.
"What's wrong?" Shu Wan restrained his expression and asked.
"Princess, I noticed that you didn't eat much for breakfast. I was afraid that you were hungry, so I thought of bringing you some snacks!" While Xiaoju was replying, she also bowed slightly to Rongchen.
"Well, you are thoughtful!" Shu Wan raised her eyes and saw Xiaoju's eyes were evasive. She was surprised and first looked at the pastries on the table, and then stared at Xiaoju for a while.
"Princess, do you have anything else to tell me?" Xiaoju, feeling guilty, always felt that Shu Wan's eyes were a little scary, as if he could see through what she was thinking.
"I haven't told Sister Ping'er anything these days. It was only yesterday that I remembered seeing General Yu calling the princess Shu Wan, so I told her. The princess wouldn't know about this, right? But I think it's just a name, it shouldn't be a big deal. Besides, the princess's name is Shu Yin. She said her name was Shu Yu at the border. I think the word Shu Wan that I heard that day was just one of her names. Or maybe Shu Wan and Shu Yin sound almost the same, so I may have misheard!"
"Xiao Ju..." Shu Wan clenched his hands unconsciously and looked at her with terrifying eyes.
Even Rong Chen could sense the hostility in her.
"Princess?" Xiaoju didn't know what was going on, but she was subconsciously a little scared. "Princess, do you have any other instructions?" She pretended to be calm.
"Recently, you seem to have a good relationship with Ping'er, the maid in Prince Li's mansion!" Shu Wan said with a forced smile.
"Princess, I just arrived in Beijing and knew nothing. It was Sister Ping'er who taught me some things. I am grateful to Sister Ping'er in my heart, but that's all. There's nothing else to do." Xiaoju knelt down with a plop.
"Why are you kneeling? Hurry up and get up!" Shu Wan laughed, "I was just asking casually. I didn't say you are not allowed to interact with people from Li Wangfu!"
"Thank you, Princess!" Upon hearing that, Xiaoju stood up tremblingly.
"You can go down!" Shu Wan said calmly.
"Yes." Xiaoju bowed, then turned away with some fear. She thought maybe she had exposed something.
"What's wrong? What happened?" After she left, Rong Chen looked at Shu Wan and asked.
"We were sold out by this girl!" Shu Wan rubbed his temples and spoke with a headache.
"What's going on?" This matter was of great importance and Rong Chen could not help but take it seriously.
"I don't know what method Ping'er used to bribe this girl, but she told her my identity!" There were too many things to do yesterday and I didn't pay attention to Xiaoju. Now I'm afraid it's too late. Yuwen Yan must have known it.
It's over. They have been exposed from the dark to the light, and I'm afraid it will be much more difficult for them to act.
"How could she know your identity?" Rong Chen didn't believe that Shu Wan, such a cautious person, would tell Xiao Ju such an important thing.
"Yu Jianning has a big mouth!" Shu Wan really wanted to pull Yu Jianning over and sew his mouth shut. "I warned him, but I didn't expect he would let it slip. Now I'm afraid Yu Wenyan is already on guard. It will be even more difficult to get the antidote!" Shu Wan's face was full of worry.
"Don't worry, there will be a way!" Rong Chen couldn't bear to see her frown, "Since it has already happened, let's slowly think of a way to solve it! It's okay, and besides, they may not be the only ones who have the antidote. There are so many famous doctors in the world, we can slowly find someone to detoxify."
"I'm afraid that this poison is not easy to cure!" How could Shu Wan not have thought of this method, but where could she find someone who could cure the poison all of a sudden? "Right now I can think of someone, but I don't know if it will work!"
"Who?" Rong Chen asked.
"I met Cai Jingshu, the daughter of the government office, before. She has a good friend, the daughter of the county magistrate of Anyang, named Wen Nuan. I heard that she has been studying medical books since she was a child. I don't know if she has any ideas, or if she knows some people with superb medical skills!" Shu Wan was a little discouraged. "Besides, we are so far away now, distant water cannot save nearby fire!"
"There will be a way, don't worry!" What Rong Chen didn't tell her was that he had tried similar methods a long time ago. Feng Ling had already consulted many famous doctors, but after hearing his symptoms, they all said they didn't know how to detoxify him. "If there is a way to poison, there is naturally a way to detoxify. Just keep looking and you will find it."
"No!" Shu Wan stood up. "I have to go to Prince Li's Mansion. Yesterday in the palace, Yuwen Yan's plan was ruined by me. He must be furious. Maybe he hasn't even had time to listen to Ping'er's report!" Now they can only hold on to this one hope. They hope that Yuwen Yan doesn't know about this yet. Then, as long as they deal with Ping'er in advance, no one will know.
"You can't go, it's dangerous!" Rong Chen grabbed her, "If Yuwen Yan already knows about this, then the Prince Li's Mansion must be waiting for us like a solid wall. If we go in now, we will fall into a trap!"
"But I can't care about so much. I can't watch you continue to suffer!" Shu Wan knew Rong Chen's considerations. He was thinking about her safety, but now there was no other way except this. "Even if you kill me today, I will fight my way out. Emperor Chi Yan values Yu Wenyan so much. I don't believe that if I put a knife to his neck, Emperor Chi Yan will not hand over the antidote obediently!" Shu Wan said, and ran out regardless of anything. Rong Chen sighed and had to follow her.
If she is not allowed to go to the Li Palace today, she will not feel at ease. Well, no matter what she does, he will follow her.
"Where are you going, Princess?" When Shu Wan was leaving the house, she met Xiao Ju. Xiao Ju couldn't help asking when she saw Shu Wan running out like the wind.
"Stay in the house and wait for me to come back!" Shu Wan stopped, turned back and reminded her, then continued to run out.
Xiaoju opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, she saw Rongchen and Fengling chasing Shu Wan out.
Xiaoju always felt a little uneasy, but she couldn't remember what was wrong.
…
"Is your prince in the mansion?" Arriving at the gate of the prince's mansion, Shu Wan walked straight in.
"The prince is in the mansion now, princess, please come in!" Because Yu Wenyan had given the order that if Shu Wan came, he should not be stopped, so the guards at the gate let her go directly!
Rong Chen and Feng Ling followed closely behind. The guards wanted to stop them, but in the end they said nothing and let them in.
"Where is Prince Li? Take me to see him!" After Shu Wan entered the room, he grabbed a maid and asked about Yuwen Yan's whereabouts.
"Greetings to Princess Shuyin! I wonder what the princess wants to see the prince for?" The maid was frightened.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Shu Wan heard Ping'er talking behind her. She let go of the unknown maid, turned around and looked at Ping'er.
"Ping'er!" Shu Wan looked at her with a smile.
"Princess Shuyin!" Ping'er was shocked to see Shu Wan, "Why is the princess here!" She bowed quickly.
"Why is she here, Shu Wan? She is Shu Wan, the Shu Wan from Blackwater City. At the beginning, the prince ordered me to stop her from marrying the Lord of Blackwater City and poison her. The poison I used was enough to kill her, but for some reason, she didn't die, and now she has come to Chiyan. Could she know the truth? But what if she knows? After the prince knew that she was Shu Wan, he had already made preparations to ensure that she would never come back today!"
Obviously, Ping'er has told Yuwen Yan about this!
Shu Wan approached her without saying a word, then suddenly raised his foot and stabbed her hard in the heart.
Ping'er was not on guard, so Shu Wan's kick sent her flying and hitting her hard against a pillar. Ping'er felt that her waist was broken. She rolled on the ground twice before stopping, and at the same time, she spat out a mouthful of blood with a wow.
"I don't know what Ping'er did to cause Princess Shuyin to run to the palace and hurt people!" Ping'er's eyes were full of hatred.
Feng Ling seemed to see again the way Shu Wan kicked Qi Xiu, Yu Wenyan's subordinate that day. It was said that Qi Xiu also recuperated for several days afterwards.
Judging from the situation today, Ping'er might be more seriously injured than him.
"A life for a life. I'll collect some interest today, and I'll come to take your life later!" Shu Wan said coldly.
"Princess Shuyin, calm down!" Just as Ping'er was about to retort, Yuwen Yan's voice with a smile came from the side, "If Ping'er really did something unforgivable, Princess Shuyin doesn't need to do anything, I will definitely take her life to make amends to the princess!"
"Your Highness..." After seeing Yuwen Yan, she felt so aggrieved that she was about to cry. She was the prince's capable subordinate, and she believed that the prince would definitely give her justice.
"I wonder what Princess Shuyin and the Imperial Master are here for today?" Yuwen Yan ignored Ping'er, "Please move to the living room for some tea. If you have anything to say, sit down and talk slowly!" He made a gesture of invitation.
"You don't have to drink the tea!" Since he already knew, Shu Wan was too lazy to play along with him anymore. "I came here today to ask King Li for something!"
"What?" Yu Wenyan still had a smile on his face.
"The Imperial Master has been poisoned." Shu Wan sneered, "I'm sure King Li has the antidote!"
Hearing this, the smile on Yuwen Yan's face disappeared.
"What do you mean, Princess Shuyin? I don't quite understand!" He pretended to be confused even though he knew the truth.
"Yuwen Yan." Shu Wan really hated his expression. "It's pointless to keep pretending now!"
Even if Yuwen Yan wanted to pretend now, he couldn't.
"So, Princess... no, I should call you Miss Shu Wan. Miss Shu, are you here to ask for medicine today? This is not the attitude of begging!" He was completely different from before.
This is his true face.
"I'm here to get it!" Shu Wan said coldly.
"Miss Shu, why do you think that I will give you the antidote? Even if I give it to you, how can you guarantee that you can escape from the Prince Li's Mansion unscathed? Do you really think that I can come and go as I please in this Prince Li's Mansion?"
"Then we'll just have to wait and see!" Shu Wan's eyes were filled with murderous intent. "Prince Li's men are very good at killing people. I've seen this before when I was at the border. But we don't know who will win today!"
I remember a reader once said that the original owner’s death was too simple. In fact, I had already designed the cause of the original owner’s death before the beginning of the story.
