The besties traveled through the book together, and the prince and general became abandoned husbands

Chapter 350 Rescue!

The old patriarch of the Shen clan sighed and shook his head:

"It's hard to say, it's hard to say."

Xu Junjun was so angry that his mouth was twisted. He grabbed the arm of the old patriarch of the Shen clan and pulled him to the palace next door.

Amidst the old patriarch's sighs, Xu Junjun dragged the man into the palace, threw him away, and angrily said with his hands on his hips:

"Old Patriarch, Jun Xiaochen invited you to the Imperial Capital to treat the young emperor, not to play dumb.

He'll come back to see the little emperor later. If you can't explain why, he'll send people to capture your clansmen and kill them one by one in front of you!"

Xu Junjun became anxious and tried to act ferociously to threaten the eccentric old man in front of him.

Unexpectedly, the old patriarch of the Shen clan had already seen through her hard words and soft heart. He smiled, sat down at the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and waved at her:

"Little girl, why are you so angry?

Your Emperor Tianqi didn't blame our Shen clan, so why are you jumping around like that?"

After finishing a cup of tea with a smile, the old patriarch looked around the palace and gave a meaningful smile.

When Xu Junjun was looked at by him, goose bumps appeared all over her body.

For some reason, she always felt that the old man looked at her with ill intentions.

However, this was the first time Xu Junjun met this old man, and she couldn't figure out what he wanted to do.

After being stared at for a long time without knowing what the intention was, Xu Junjun, who already had a bad temper, suddenly became angry:

"Just tell me directly if you have any solution!

Stop rambling here!

If you keep talking and looking around, you'll be in trouble when Jun Xiaochen comes back."

Xu Junjun's hot temper made the old patriarch smile even more deeply.

Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Xu Junjun gritted his teeth and was about to scold him when Jun Xiaochen's voice came from outside the hall.

"Old Patriarch Shen, I haven't seen you for many years. How are you?"

The tall figure of a man appeared in the hall. The old patriarch stood up, stroking his beard, his face, like dry bark, full of smiles:

"Thank you for your consideration, Lord Regent. My old bones are still quite strong.

But this time, the Regent was so anxious that I almost broke my back rushing all the way here."

As he spoke, the old patriarch put his hands on his waist and cried out in pain twice.

Jun Xiaochen curled his lips and did not answer, but looked at Xu Junjun:

"Jun'er, go see the emperor. I'm going to catch up with the old patriarch of the Shen clan."

Xu Junjun gritted her teeth, knowing that the old man was up to something. She nodded at Jun Xiaochen, snorted coldly, and turned away.

She trod heavily, like an angry little leopard. The old chief of the Shen tribe looked at her angry back, and the smile on his face deepened:

“This little girl may not be very old, but she has a big temper.

I wonder which family in the Tianqi Imperial Capital this young lady is from?"

Jun Xiaochen glanced at him indifferently, without intending to respond. He sat aside and asked about the little emperor's health:

"Now that the old patriarch has met the emperor, why don't you tell us the conditions? What would it take for you to make the move?"

The Shen clan and the Tianqi royal family have always had a cooperative relationship. Forcing it will only backfire. Jun Xiaochen plans to use courtesy first and then force.

The old patriarch of the Shen clan seemed unaware that Jun Xiaochen had deliberately avoided his question, and the smile on his face remained:

"What are you talking about, Prince Regent?

The Shen family and the imperial family have always been on good terms. If this old man of mine can help save the emperor, I will definitely do my best."

Jun Xiaochen raised his eyelids, raised his hand to pour tea, and his face was indistinguishable from joy or anger:

"Then does Patriarch Shen have any solution?"

Jun Xiaochen got the answer that Xu Junjun had asked several times but failed to get in one go.

The old patriarch shook his head at Jun Xiaochen, it was such a pity:

“What the Regent doesn’t know is that the Emperor has already been poisoned, and his foundation is severely weakened.

Now that I have this strong poison in my body, even if I try to get rid of it, it will be of no use. It will only make the difference between living a few more days or less.

What's more, it takes a lot of effort to detoxify this poison. During the detoxification process, the poisoned person will experience severe pain in the intestines.

In my opinion, it is better not to cure this poison, and to develop another poison that kills instantly before the poison takes effect, so as to get rid of it."

The teacup in Jun Xiaochen's hand shattered with a bang, tea spilled out, and blood splattered.

The old patriarch of the Shen clan turned around, and Jun Xiaochen calmly let go of his hand. He lowered his head and glanced at the blood-red palm, and said lightly:

"Sorry, my hand slipped."

The expression of the old patriarch Shen became subtle. He carefully observed Jun Xiaochen's expression, sighed and shook his head after a while.

The old patriarch made no big movements, but the silver ornaments wrapped around his white hair made a tinkling sound:

"Many years ago, when you first stepped into the Shen Clan, I could see that you looked cold but were actually very affectionate.

After all these years, you haven't changed."

These two sentences express the sigh and helplessness of the ancients when they said goodbye.

Jun Xiaochen lowered his eyes to hide the coldness in them:

“Old Patriarch, there is no need to say such useless words.

This prince will ask one last time, does the old patriarch have any way to cure the emperor's poison?"

The Shen clan leader fell silent. The initial tension between them faded, replaced by a solemn and heavy heart.

"You are forcing my old bones to die."

Jun Xiaochen stared at him without saying anything.

After a long time, the old patriarch of the Shen clan sighed and said:

"I didn't lie to you just now.

The emperor's health has been severely damaged. Even if he can detoxify and save his life, he will become a disabled person.

In the future, I won’t even be able to pass on my family line, let alone protect the Tianqi foundation for you.

"After what I've said, does the Regent still insist on saving people?"

Jun Xiaochen's pupils were icy cold, and he opened his lips firmly:

"save!"

The old patriarch of the Shen clan seemed to be angry with him:

"The Regent must think carefully. The Emperor's decision to use the Shen clan's secret elixir is the last chance for the royal family to use the Shen clan's treasures.

If this life-saving pill is used on the emperor, the regent's life will be in danger in the future, and the Shen family will be unable to help. "

Jun Xiaochen did not hesitate:

“The King said so.

save!"

This time, it was the turn of the old patriarch Shen to be furious.

“Stinky! Really stinky!

You brat!

His temper is still the same as before, stubborn and stubborn!

Stinks!

You really don't even leave yourself any way out!"

Jun Xiaochen's expression remained unchanged, and his voice was firm:

“This king does not need a retreat.

This king is the escape route."

After saying this, Jun Xiaochen suddenly stood up and nodded to the red-faced and angry old patriarch of the Shen clan:

"Since Patriarch Shen has a solution, please detoxify the emperor today."

The old patriarch Shen's nose was crooked with anger, and he was throwing a tantrum like an unreasonable child:

"Why urge!

Do you think the secret treasure of my Shen clan is the iron lump that can be found everywhere?

If your emperor wants to take medicine, he must drink the Shen clan's Guyuan Soup for three consecutive days. Otherwise, as soon as the pill is swallowed, he will be killed before the poison takes effect.

Wait, we'll talk about it in three days!"

After saying this, the old patriarch rushed out of the palace in high spirits, his head covered in silver bells, and angrily said:

"Take me to your Imperial Hospital!

I'm going to prepare the medicine myself!"

Until this moment, Jun Xiaochen clenched his fists and relaxed them, saying to the guards outside:

"Take the old patriarch of the Shen clan to the Imperial Hospital."

The guard saluted and walked up to the old patriarch with a respectful look.

The old patriarch snorted arrogantly, glared at Jun Xiaochen behind him, and then left with his personal guards.
