Chapter 136 The Antidote Has Failed
Yuwen Yan asked Yuwen Zhu for the antidote, but Yuwen Zhu would not give it to him at this time. Otherwise, who knows what this madman Yuwen Yan would do. Besides, she didn't know whether this was the real antidote. If Yuwen Yan just took out a bottle of ordinary fake antidote to deceive her, she would not be fooled easily.
"Ugh..." Shu Wan growled out of unbearable pain. Her entire consciousness was now blurred.
Although Rong Chen knew that this was a plan between her and Yu Wenzhu, he still felt extremely distressed when he saw Shu Wan in so much pain.
"There's no problem with the antidote!" he said to Yu Wen, "Give her the antidote!" Even if it was fake, he couldn't bear to watch her suffer.
"Okay!" Yu Wenzhu wanted to say something, but finally swallowed the words. Since Rong Chen already had the antidote, she would cure Shu Wan's poison. Anyway, she had nothing to do with the rest.
After she took out the antidote, Rong Chen snatched it away and fed it to Shu Wan.
Everyone looked at Shu Wan to see if she could recover.
But after everyone waited for a cup of tea, Shu Wan's condition did not improve. Instead, it looked worse. She didn't even have the strength to open her eyes.
"It's hot..." Shu Wan said incoherently, "Water, where is the water!" Her face was flushed and she looked very abnormal. In just a short while, even her lips were dry and cracked.
"Water, get some water!" Yu Wenyan was also frightened by her appearance and yelled at the servants.
The servant received the order and hurriedly went to find water. After a while, he brought up a pot of tea.
He quickly poured a cup of water for Shu Wan to drink, but it was not enough. Shu Wan was like a fish dying of thirst, and the drop of water just now had no effect at all.
"Yuwen Zhu, how dare you play tricks on me!" Seeing that Shu Wan's condition did not improve after eating, Yuwen Yan looked at Yuwen Zhu in anger, wishing he could strangle her to death the next second.
"I didn't!" Yu Wenzhu was completely confused. "This is the antidote, this is really the antidote, I don't know why it's like this!" Obviously, taking the antidote will make things better, but why is Shu Wan not only showing no signs of improvement, but also looking worse! "You..." Yu Wenyan didn't know if she was acting too well or was really innocent, and was so angry that she couldn't speak.
"Rong Chen, let's go!" Shu Wan leaned close to Rong Chen's ear and whispered, "It will be embarrassing if we stay here any longer..." Shu Wan forced herself to hold on to the last bit of her rationality. Even if she was stupid, she should know what drug had taken her by now by feeling the changes in her body. Yu Wenzhu, this pig, she would come back to settle the score with her later!
"Okay!" Rong Chen had noticed what was wrong with her early on. Although he was not sure, he already had a guess in his mind. As he spoke, he picked up Shu Wan and hugged her and prepared to leave.
"State Master!" How could Yu Wenyan let him take Shu Wan away? He spoke up to stop him, "State Master, are you going to kill my wife in public?"
"We haven't gotten married yet, so how can there be a wife?" Rong Chen answered with a gloomy face, "If you want to talk about a wife, I was the one who got married with her. She is my wife!" He patiently said this.
Upon hearing this, except for a few people who knew the truth, the onlookers were all stunned.
What did they hear just now? What did the Imperial Master say just now?
He said that he had married Princess Shuyin? When did it happen? Why didn't they know anything? Why is this world so mysterious? When did they get married?
Yuwen Yan was even more enraged by his words, and in a rage he raised his hand to signal the people he had arranged early in the morning to surround him.
"What kind of place is the Dangli Palace, Imperial Master? Can you come and go as you please?" There was a killing light in his eyes, "Now that you are here, don't leave. The Imperial Master openly broke into the palace and ruined my wedding. Capture him and kill him on the spot!" As soon as he gave an order, countless soldiers rushed over with knives raised, as if they were determined to capture Rong Chen.
"Feng Ling, Yu Jianning!" Rong Chen just wanted to hug Shu Wan and leave. He was unwilling to waste time here, so Feng Ling and Yu Jianning came to clear the stumbling blocks for him.
"Master, rest assured. I'm here. These people can't even touch the edge of your clothes!" In just two sentences, the sword in Feng Ling's hand was already stained with the blood of several people.
"Take Shu Wan away quickly!" Yu Jianning also said, "We are here!"
"How naive!" Yuwen Yan sneered, "You two, you think you can stop my elite troops!"
"Who told you that there are only two of us?" Yu Jianning rolled his eyes, thinking that there must be something wrong with Yu Wenyan's brain. Did he think that they came to rescue people alone? As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Jin, who had sneaked out and turned back, rushed in with his men and formed another circle outside Yu Wenyan's encirclement!
"Your Highness Prince Li, you want to marry my sister. Have you asked me and my sister?" Fu Jin asked with a smile that did not reach his eyes.
Rong Chen sneered, tapped the ground with his toes, and jumped away holding Shu Wan.
Seeing this, Yuwen Yan followed closely, determined to get Shu Wan back.
Fu Jin would not let him succeed, so he rushed forward to fight with him, giving Rong Chen space to escape.
Yuwen Yan's men were brave and good at fighting, but Rong Chen's men were all elite troops picked from hundreds of miles away, so when the two sides fought, the scene was extremely tragic.
Some of the timid courtiers who came to the banquet were almost crying with fear. They had never seen such a scene before.
The Queen, on the other hand, was very happy to see this situation. She had been planning to capture Yuwen Yan today. In this way, when Yuwen Yan's men were exhausted, she would take action and would surely be able to capture him in one fell swoop.
No matter what the battle situation was like behind him, Rong Chen carried Shu Wan out of the house and ran all the way.
"Rong Chen...it's so hot...water, find a place with water..." Shu Wan is now like a person who has stayed in the desert for several months, extremely thirsty for some water. Without water, she cannot survive.
No, to be precise, it was like there was a fire in her body that was about to burn her to death. She couldn't survive. She needed water, a lot of water to put out the fire.
"Okay, I'll take you to find water!" Rong Chen tried his best to calm down, but that was only on the surface. His heart had already been filled with huge waves.
Shu Wan was in a daze, she just felt that Rong Chen's voice was so nice, as if it came from far away. She reached out and touched Rong Chen's face. His face was very cold and felt very comfortable to touch. Shu Wan couldn't help but groan, but it was not enough, so she reached out and hooked her hands around Rong Chen's neck and put her face closer, as if she had found some relief from being in the fire, so she greedily wanted more.
"Rong Chen, I'm hot!" Shu Wan's voice was filled with a temptation that she herself was unaware of. It was like an invisible hand that grabbed Rong Chen's heart and almost made him lose his mind. "It's really hot..." Shu Wan closed her eyes slightly, her little mouth breathing sweet air, and as she spoke she actually started to tear off her clothes.
She had no rationality at all now, she only knew that this would make her feel more comfortable.
"Wanwan, don't move!" Rong Chen saw this and hurriedly stopped her. "It will be fine soon. Just bear with it for a while. It will be fine soon. We will find water soon. Be obedient and don't move your hands!" If he didn't stop Shu Wan now, he would regret it when Shu Wan woke up.
"But I feel uncomfortable!" Shu Wan's eyes were as charming as silk. In Rong Chen's eyes, the tone and expression of her words seemed to be about to get up, and there was a bit of pleading! "I know you feel uncomfortable, just bear with it, there is water ahead, it will be fine soon!" Rong Chen's courier under his feet sped up. If he waited a little longer, he didn't know what she would do.
Rong Chen came to the water's edge, hugged Shu Wan and dived in.
"Bang--"
Countless splashes of water occurred where the two of them dived in.
After entering the water, Shu Wan was like a fish that had been deprived of water for a long time. When she was on the verge of death, she returned to the water again. She seemed to be alive again.
But soon, this feeling disappeared, and the fire in her body burned again, which made her feel extremely panicked.
Rong Chen was afraid that she would not be able to hold her breath underwater for too long, so he held her and lifted her head out of the water.
Shu Wan breathed in and out deeply, and it took him a long time to adjust.
"Wanwan..." Rong Chen called her with great concern. He had no experience and didn't know whether Shu Wan would be better now or whether he needed to do something else.
Although Shu Wan's mind was much clearer, her face was still as flushed as usual. She just remembered that today, she was afraid that Rong Chen would have to see her embarrassing situation.
"Damn Yuwenzhu!" Thinking of this, Shu Wan cursed angrily. She swore that when she returned, she would dig out Yuwenzhu's eyeballs. Those eyes were there just to make up the number, so it would be better not to have them.
Having said that, Shu Wan dived into the water again. She really didn't know how to face Rong Chen now.
She just hoped Rong Chen could stay away from her as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, Rong Chen had no idea what she was thinking. Seeing her dive into the water again, he was afraid that she would be in danger, so he jumped in as well.
Moreover, he unconsciously hugged Shu Wan, fearing that Shu Wan might get hurt! As a result, the anger that Shu Wan had just put out started to rise again.
At that moment, she didn't know what she was thinking. She grabbed Rong Chen's neck and bit his lips. Maybe she just wanted to kiss him, or maybe the lake water could no longer extinguish the fire in her body.
After a brief second of confusion at first, Rong Chen accepted it calmly and took the initiative.
Anyway, the little girl belongs to her!
At the same time, on the other side, in Prince Li’s mansion, blood was flowing like a river.
Feng Ling and Yu Jianning were both injured, but fortunately their injuries were not serious.
Fu Jin was also injured. His skills were slightly inferior to Yuwen Yan's, so his injury was more serious.
However, on Yuwen's side, countless of his men were killed or wounded. This was his first head-on confrontation with Rong Chen. He didn't expect that even though Rong Chen was injured and stranded in Chiyan, he still had such a powerful guard!
"Prince Li, I order you to stop immediately!" The Queen pointed at Yuwen Yan, "The eldest prince is a distinguished guest of mine, Chiyan. How dare you hurt him like this? You are going to make an enemy of Beishuo!" With just a few words, she elevated the matter to the level of a dispute between countries.
"The Queen is wrong!" Yuwen Yan was unmoved. "It was they, Beishuo, who wanted to be the enemy of Chiyan first. They agreed to send a princess to marry the princess, but it turned out that the princess had an affair with another man? Where does this put me, Chiyan!"
"When the late emperor was alive, he had already issued a clear decree!" The queen responded calmly, "Princess Shuyin's marriage is decided by her, and she can choose her own husband. But you, Prince Li, disregarded the late emperor's decree and Princess Shuyin's wishes, kidnapped the princess to your mansion, and forced her to marry you. You don't take the late emperor and Beishuo seriously!"
"I'm afraid the Queen has heard it wrong. The late Emperor said that day that we can freely pursue whoever we like. I am only following the late Emperor's will to win the princess' heart and let her marry me! How can there be any coercion?" Yu Wenyan's logic was clear and he did not fall into the Queen's trap easily.
"What a farfetched argument!" the queen continued, "Also, the late emperor has just passed away. According to regulations, the people of Chiyan are not allowed to marry within three years. And you, as the prince of Chiyan, not only do you not set an example for millions of the people of Liming, but you rush to get married when the late emperor's body is still warm. This is disrespectful to the late emperor. Just for this reason, I can depose you on behalf of the late emperor!" Queen Gao spoke righteously, looking indignant.
"Hahaha!" Yuwen Yan laughed as if he had heard some great joke. "When the late emperor was alive, what he most wanted to see was me getting married and starting a family. If he knew that I have found the woman to spend my life with, he would definitely be happy for me! But the queen and the prince have been occupying this position, which is no different from treason!"
"Treason?" The Queen smiled with anger, "The Crown Prince is justified. If you are talking about plotting to usurp the throne, then it is you, a traitor, who is guilty of treason. Today, I will execute you on the spot to rectify the government and restore the reputation of Chiyan!"
"Whatever tricks the queen has, just use them!" Yu Wenyan sneered, not wanting to argue with her any more. Sooner or later, there would be a fierce battle between them, so why not take advantage of today's opportunity to resolve it all at once! "Come on, take down this traitor for me!" The queen immediately shouted, and immediately countless imperial guards rushed over with swords and shields in hand.
Today's battle in Li Wang Mansion is destined to be a fight to the death.
…
It was dark when Shu Wan finally managed to eliminate the medicine in his body.
