Shi Wanwan said calmly, "This is the prince's business, what does it have to do with me?"

Xie Xuanzhi said slowly: "It really has nothing to do with the princess."

"But after the princess and Lu Xingzhi called off their engagement, no one in the capital would dare to marry the princess again."

"And from what I've seen of the princess, it seems she hasn't thought about getting married again."

Shi Wanwan felt that his eyes were quite sharp, and she really had no interest in getting married.

There are many men in this world, but she is not lucky in this regard.

She had never met a good man in either her previous life or this life, and she didn't think she would ever meet one.

So she believes in men, but she believes in herself even more.

But in this era, if a woman doesn't get married, she will feel a lot of pressure.

Moreover, there is no guarantee that Emperor Qianyuan will not grant her another marriage, and it will be a big problem whether she gets married or not at that time.

She asked, "What exactly does the prince want to say?"

Xie Xuanzhi looked into her eyes and said, "I won't live long, and the princess has no plans to marry. I think we are a good match."

"There isn't much else in the Chong Palace, but there's a lot of silver."

"As long as the princess marries me and serves me as my mother after my death, the entire Chong Palace will belong to the princess."

Shi Wanwan: “…”

She thought his suggestion was quite good, but...

She looked at him. This man gave her the feeling of being unfathomable.

Her intuition also told her that he was dangerous.

Her experience also told her that huge profits always come with huge traps.

She won't fall for his trick!

She was about to speak when Xie Xuanzhi spoke before her, "My Lady, there is no need to rush to give me an answer."

"This is a matter of great importance. It is normal for the princess to need time to consider it."

"I promise you, Princess, that as long as you agree to marry me, I will find a way to break off your engagement with Lu Xingzhi."

Shi Wanwan grinned and looked at him and said, "Can I ask Your Majesty a question?"

"Princess, please ask." Xie Xuanzhi said in a calm voice.

Shi Wanwan looked him in the eye and asked, "Why did the prince choose me? Is it because he discovered that I am proficient in medicine and can cure your poison?"

"If it's because of this matter, Your Highness can just tell me directly. As long as you give me enough money, I can take this deal."

"But if Your Highness wants to trick me into marrying you and then play the emotional card on me to get me to treat you, then forget it!"

Her voice turned cold when she said this: "I have plenty of ways to make the prince die faster."

Xie Xuanzhi lowered his eyelashes and chuckled softly: "So the princess is worried about this matter."

"Having said that, I might as well be honest with the princess. The princess is intelligent and has excellent medical skills. Perhaps she has a way to detoxify me."

"But even if you can cure this poison, you can't reverse the damage to my organs."

"So even if the poison is cured, I can only live another year or two at most. This is meaningless to me."

Shi Wanwan was stunned for a moment, then he continued, "I just feel that after spending time with the princess recently, I've gotten along well with her."

"Given the princess's boldness in love and hate, if she were to marry me, she would definitely not abuse my mother just because I'm dead."

"For this king, my mother is the only thing I care about in this world."

Shi Wanwan's eyes darkened as she said to him, "Please, Your Highness, extend your hand."

Xie Xuanzhi smiled and cooperated by extending his hand in front of her.

After Shi Wanwan took his pulse, her expression changed slightly, because his pulse now was different from before.

In her previous life, she was known as an expert at taking pulses with both ultrasound and X-rays. Once she took his pulse carefully, she could tell his physical condition:

It was just as he said, his internal organs had already begun to be damaged, and if left untreated, the condition would only get worse.

Even if the poison is removed for him, the damage to his organs cannot be reversed.

She withdrew her hand and said, "I admit that I am very tempted by the prince's proposal, but I refuse."

Xie Xuanzhi's gaze fell on her.

She suppressed her smile, her peach blossom eyes dark but determined: "If I want to marry, I will only marry someone I like."

"I will not sell out my marriage and my relationship for money, power or anything else."

"Meeting Lu Xingzhi has already brought me the worst misfortune of my life. I will never fall in love with a man so easily and give up my marriage again."

"But I can make a deal with the prince. As long as you pay me enough, I can try to detoxify the prince and cure the old princess."

She smiled brightly at him when she said this: "Now it all depends on whether the prince trusts me and is willing to hire me as a doctor."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left. Shen Yi, who was watching from the side, hurriedly followed her.

Xie Xuanzhi sat in the carriage and watched the master and servant walking away, and he chuckled.

Jinan said somewhat displeasedly: "The prince has helped the princess several times and even saved her life today."

"If the prince hadn't been poisoned, there would be countless noble ladies in the capital who would want to marry him. How could it be her turn?"

He concluded angrily: "She is so ungrateful!"

Xie Xuanzhi tapped the small table in front of him, and the smile in his eyes deepened: "If she agrees, I will kill her."

Jinan was stunned for a moment.

Xie Xuanzhi said calmly, "She didn't agree, which means she's not short-sighted or profit-seeking. She has good character."

"This prince appreciates people with good character. She has not brought shame to the eldest princess."

"Go home."

He had deliberately shown off his financial resources and generosity in front of her, and since then he had been preparing for this day.

After all these attempts, she did not disappoint him.

Shen Yi followed behind Shi Wanwan. He didn't quite understand why she rejected Xie Xuanzhi, because the conditions Xie Xuanzhi offered were really good.

He looked at the back of Shi Wanwan's delicate head and had a guess in his mind: play the long game to catch a big fish.

Shi Wanwan was trying to hook Xie Xuanzhi. After all, if she agreed to him now, she would be less reserved for a while, and Xie Xuanzhi might not cherish it.

But if she refused at this time, Xie Xuanzhi would definitely pay more attention to her.

He felt that he had guessed Shi Wanwan's thoughts correctly.

He also had an unexpected gain today, which was to know that Xie Xuanzhi would not live long, and he had to quickly pass the news back to Nanxiang.

If the Tang Dynasty did not have Xie Xuanzhi, their chances of winning would be much greater when the two armies fought.

At this moment, Shi Wanwan, who was walking in front of him, suddenly turned around and looked at him coldly with her peach blossom eyes.

He was shocked: "What does the princess want Yi to do?"

Shi Wanwan took out the small knife she carried with her and pointed it at Shen Yi's lower abdomen.

He instantly remembered the day she stabbed his crotch with a knife, with the blade touching a certain part of his body. His hair stood on end: "What is the princess going to do?"

Shi Wanwan said calmly, "If you dare to leak even a single word of what I had with Prince Chong today..."

She paused here, her eyes sweeping over his lower abdomen. He instantly stepped back a foot, covering his crotch with his hands.

She smiled faintly and said, "I will make you a eunuch first, and then sell you to the Pity House, and let you sell your ass for the rest of your life."

Shen Yi: "!!!!!!"
