Chapter 183 - 183 - Relapse of Fire PoisonInside the palace, Princess Xi Ya was soaking in a wooden bucket and enjoying a hot bath with petals. Only now did she feel alive, as if every single hair on his body was beginning to feel good.
She smelled the sweet fragrance of her own body and laughed: "Wei Yuanwei would never have thought that I was the one who did it! I hate that horse for not throwing her to death! Sigh. I can only blame her for being too lucky, but I believe she won"t be so lucky all the time. "
"Ah Cai, help me add a few more flower buds." Princess Xi Ya instructed.
Ah Cai happily poured all of the dried flower buds into the bucket, "This will finally wash off the horse dung on the princess" body."
Pow! A red palm print landed on Ah Cai"s face.
"Scram!" You idiot! " When she thought about how miserable she looked after falling into the fecal drain, the blood in Princess Xi Ya"s entire body clamored. She wished that she could not hack Wei Yuanwei into a thousand pieces right now.
Ah Cai was so frightened that she almost rolled and crawled out. Suddenly, Princess Xi Ya called out to her, "Stop, do you think that the Duke is different from the others?"
Ah Cai"s interest was piqued, he immediately told Princess Xi Ya everything he knew: "The people in the palace all say that Wei Guanshu will become a side consort in the future."
It was common for two side consort s in the Duke Palaces to sit on equal footing.
Flames flickered in Xiaxia"s eyes. "So you"re saying, Wei Guanshu has already successfully captured Yun Xie"s heart?"
"That Wei Guanshu is so beautiful, and he also has such a gentle appearance. Which man doesn"t like his?" Ah Cai said excitedly. It was only when the cold eyes of Princess Xi Ya landed on her body that she realized he had said the wrong thing.
"Go and bring her the few pieces of brocade I am not wearing. In the future, she will definitely be of use to me. " Thinking about the scene of Wei Guanshu and Wei Yuanwei killing each other, Princess Xi Ya"s eyes flashed with excitement.
Looking at the brocade on top of the Pear Blossom Wood, Liu"er was excited, she stretched out her hand and touched it: "This material is really good, look at the patterns embroidered on it is very exquisite, there are even pearls embedded on it, if I make a Luo Jie dress for young miss, it would be very beautiful."
Wei Guanshu squinted her eyes in disdain. In the future, the materials she would get would be much better than this, so she wouldn"t put it in her eyes.
"Princess Xi Ya seems to want to befriend Young Miss. Last time, Young Miss had already rejected her. It seems like she is still unwilling to give up." Liu"er kept the material carefully.
"Humph!" If it wasn"t for her seeing my capabilities, would she really place me in her eyes? " The Princess Xi Ya, this kind of foolish woman, could only be her stepping stone.
"Miss, this time you can finally relax, your highness really does have you in his heart." Liu"er covered her lips and laughed.
Previously, she rejected Princess Xi Ya not only because she wanted to raise the price for herself, but also because of the uncertainty in her heart. Now that the big rock in her heart had safely landed on her floor, she naturally wouldn"t brush away Princess Xi Ya"s good intentions.
Wei Guanshu held tightly onto Liu"er"s hand, as brilliant light flowed in his eyes. "Liu"er, do you know? How scared was I when I decided to gamble on myself? " She could have avoided that mad horse, but she chose to gamble with her own life. In any case, she had nothing left, no power, no backing. Rather than living in such a muddled state, it was better to gamble with everything she had.
"But Miss won."
"Hahahaha, Wei Yuanwei will never be my opponent, she"s just a lowly b.a.s.t.a.r.d who grew up in a stable. From the beginning, she was not my opponent." Wei Guanshu laughed crazily, completely different from her usual dignified appearance.
Suddenly, her laughter stopped. She p.r.i.c.ked up her ears and heard chaotic footsteps outside.
Wei Guanshu straightened her sideburns and walked outside with the support of Liu"er. A gentle smile appeared on her face, as though she was looking at the moonlight that was as gentle as water.
It was a pity that she didn"t see anything, and only saw Wei Yuanwei standing outside the great hall, somewhat despondent.
"What happened to sister?" Wei Guanshu had a face full of worry as he looked inside the hall. It was just that at this moment, the door to the hall was closed, cutting off her curiosity.
"Rest early, sister. After being frightened, I jumped up and down for the whole day. Even if sister wasn"t tired, I still felt tired for you." Wei Yuanwei said coldly, now that there were no outsiders, what was she trying to act out?
"Sister, I don"t understand what you"re saying." Wei Guanshu maintained a gentle smile on his face, but his eyes that were slightly raised revealed his current complacency, for he would definitely forget it.
"Yin Sheng, bring a silver spoon over to the Young Mistress later. Even elderly people would not be able to hear well, it would be best if this thing does not leave their bodies for a moment." Wei Yuanwei did not spare Wei Guanshu another glance as she turned and walked into the palace.
"Young Madam, please go back." Xuan Li made a gesture of invitation towards Wei Guanshu.
Wei Guanshu blessed her body slightly, then turned and left with Liu"er.
Yun Xie was still unconscious, his thin lips had turned white and his pair of deep eyes were tightly shut.
"What happened to the prince?" Wei Yuanwei was extremely anxious.
Minister Yuan stroked her beard and said: "Even though Your Highness was poisoned, the good thing is that the poison has already been removed as soon as possible. It"s just that."
"Minister Yuan, please do not keep us in suspense." Shangli who was standing at the side said coldly.
"It"s just that Your Highness was previously burned by the fire during the explosion. This old man had once used Dragon Gra.s.s as a medicine to fight poison, so these few years, everything was fine. But now, Your Highness"s body has been severely injured, and the balance within his body has been broken. I"m afraid it"s at death"s door. " Minister Yuan was previously an old imperial physician within the palace and had followed the prince for many years.
"Are there any solutions?" Wei Yuanwei"s figure trembled, and her voice became a little hoa.r.s.e.
"Unless you consume a Snow Pill." Just as Minister Yuan"s voice fell, the hope that had just risen in Wei Yuanwei"s heart vanished. Why did Yun Xie exchange this pill for him?
Everyone fell into silence, Xuan Li looked at Wei Yuanwei strangely, then quickly lowered her eyes.
"Other than this, there"s no other way?" No matter what method it was, she had to wake Yun Xie up.
"There seems to be another cruel way. In fact, the Duke had always rejected this idea, but there was nothing else he could do about it at the moment. " The Minister Yuan stammered.
"This subordinate will arrange someone to do so. If Your Highness wakes up, Princess will only place all of her sins on this subordinate." Xuan Li cupped her hands and said, he could go to the army camp and find a strong and robust captive to take the place of the prince to bear the burning pain.
