Back to the day I married my second wife, I turned around and married my ex-husband's uncle
Chapter 511: Can’t Die Too Quickly
Jiang Ningwan returned to the Prince of Chu's Mansion before going to the army.
Qin Shuangchi, who was drinking tea and playing with birds in the yard, was pushed back into the room.
After the door closed, Qin Shuangchi asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Jiang Ningwan said solemnly, "Fan Shixian, I'll use my merits to marry you as my concubine."
As soon as the words came out, Qin Shuangchi's pupils trembled.
He suddenly stood up from the wheelchair.
"what!"
Jiang Ningwan quickly pushed him back to sit, "The Emperor has already agreed."
Hearing this, Qin Shuangchi's face became solemn. "The emperor must know that Fan Shixian will cause trouble. He doesn't even intend to save Fan Shixian's life."
Jiang Ningwan said helplessly, "I've tried to persuade her, but Fan Shixian probably really thinks the emperor values you and that marrying you will bring her endless wealth and glory."
"Who knew this was such a dangerous place."
"She wanted to trade the credit for the antidote to Rumengzui for it, and the Emperor couldn't persuade her."
"But the wedding is at the end of the year, which is still several months away."
Qin Shuangchi nodded thoughtfully, "We can't let her marry in, otherwise our plan will be exposed."
Now, everyone in the Prince of Chu's Palace is someone they can trust.
Those who can get close to the inner courtyard are the most trusted among the trusted.
The poison that Qin Shuangchi took was not Qisong leaves, but Qinglan leaves, which are similar to Qisong leaves. They are also poisonous, but the toxicity is different.
This is an extremely rare poisonous weed that she found after searching through her master's notes.
It took more than half a month just to find this poisonous weed.
When there are outsiders around, use green orchid leaves to treat poisoning, and when there are no outsiders around, detoxify immediately.
This is the way that causes the least harm to Qin Shuangchi's body.
If Fan Shixian married in, she would definitely not be content. If she kept an eye on them all the time, she would discover the illusion that Qin Shuangchi was poisoned.
But if Qin Shuangchi continues to be poisoned by the green orchid leaves, it will cause great harm to his body.
"Then we can only plan ahead."
Qin Shuangchi nodded, "You decide on the arrangements. I can't die too quickly, nor too slowly."
"Row."
After the two of them had lunch, Jiang Ningwan set out to distribute the reward money to the army.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he went out, he saw Fan Shixian.
"You really came?" Jiang Ningwan was a little surprised.
Fan Shixian bowed respectfully to her, "Sister Jiang."
"Didn't you say I could come to the palace to familiarize myself with the affairs there in advance? I will do whatever Sister Jiang tells me to do."
Seeing Fan Shixian's attitude suddenly become so good, I don't know if she was stimulated by something or if she has some new plan.
"You haven't even married yet, and you want to come in and work? Aren't you afraid that others will laugh at you?"
Fan Shixian smiled and said, "As long as I can be with the King of Chu, I'm not afraid of being laughed at."
"I hope Sister Jiang will help me!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ningwan simply called Lichun over and said, "Lichun, Miss Fan wants to come to the palace to work. Please make some arrangements for her."
It's a good opportunity for the maids in the mansion to take a break while they work.
A maid who doesn't cost any money is better not to use her.
Lichun understood immediately, "Yes."
"Miss Fan, please follow me."
Fan Shixian finally entered the Prince of Chu's Mansion as she wished. Walking in the courtyard, she was filled with emotion. She wondered what it felt like to be the mistress of such a grand mansion.
Jiang Ningwan has such a leisurely life, but he still wants to be a general and train in the military camp every day. He is really asking for trouble.
She is different. She enjoys it more than Jiang Ning.
I will definitely be able to manage all the matters in the palace in an orderly manner!
Just as she was thinking about it, Lichun had already taken her to the back kitchen, where there were a lot of bowls and chopsticks in the basin.
"Miss Fan, we just had lunch at the mansion, and the kitchen hasn't been cleaned up yet, so I'll leave it to you."
Lichun said, calling the other maids, "Everyone, don't be busy. Miss Fan is capable and she will take care of it all."
Fan Shixian's expression changed, "I..."
Li Chun didn't give her a chance to speak, "Why don't you thank Miss Fan quickly!"
The maids were filled with joy and bowed quickly, "Thank you, Miss Fan!"
Fan Shixian was stunned. The bigger the house, the more important people's hearts were. If she could take the opportunity to win over people's hearts, she would have people to use her for work in the future.
Anyway, she came here today to see the King of Chu, so it was just right that no one was watching her.
Soon, all the maids in the kitchen went out to rest.
Lichun smiled and said, "Then Miss Fan, take your time."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Fan Shixian started washing dishes and tidying up the kitchen.
While working slowly, he observed the people in the yard.
After waiting for more than half an hour, there was finally no one in the yard.
She immediately walked out of the kitchen and went to find the King of Chu's courtyard.
After wandering around the huge Chu Palace for most of the day, I finally found the Chu King's courtyard, but it was heavily guarded.
As soon as he got close, he immediately alarmed the guards.
"who!"
Fan Shixian wanted to hide, but it was too late. The guards immediately caught her.
"Who dares to trespass into the palace?"
"Say! Who sent you here!"
Fan Shixian's arms were pinned behind her back, causing her to cry out in pain. Fearing she would be mistaken for an assassin, she quickly explained, "I am Fan Shixian, the eldest daughter of the Fan family."
"The princess sent me here!"
But the guard refused to budge and angrily shouted, "That's nonsense! The princess didn't explain!"
Fan Shixian could only shout loudly into the courtyard: "Prince! I am Fan Shixian! Prince, help me!"
Qin Shuangchi, who was sitting by the window in the study reading a book, frowned unhappily.
No response.
Seeing this, the guard shouted angrily, "How dare you disturb the prince's rest!"
"take away!"
Two guards dragged Fan Shixian away.
The force was so strong that Fan Shixian couldn't refuse at all, and she was almost dragged away.
"I'm the eldest daughter of the Fan family, I'm not an assassin! Let me go!"
The guard said coldly, "I've never heard of the Miss Fan! If there are any guests, they must stay in the front courtyard. Anyone who approaches the inner courtyard without the permission of the Princess and the Prince is a thief!"
"I don't know how you broke in, but you will be killed without mercy!"
Hearing those three cold words, Fan Shixian shuddered.
Unbelievable.
"What...what? Don't you want to verify my identity? How do I look like a thief?" Fan Shixian struggled desperately.
But the two guards said nothing.
They dragged Fan Shixian directly to the side of the ditch in the yard. One of them forced her to kneel down, and the other drew his sword and pointed it at her neck.
The moment the cold and sharp sword blade touched the back of his neck, Fan Shixian's scalp went numb, his hair stood on end, and fear filled his heart.
His voice trembled with nervousness. "I'm really not a thief. I just want to see the prince!"
"Take me to see the prince, the prince recognizes me!"
But the guards didn't believe it at all, "Sweet talk!"
"Stop talking nonsense and get started!"
One of them held a long sword and was about to chop her neck hard.
At that moment, Fan Shixian was so frightened that her legs went weak and her heart was in a panic, and she screamed in panic.
Just when the guard's sword was about to fall.
Suddenly a voice came: "Stop!"
Li Chun hurried over, "Let her go, she's not an assassin!"
The guards then let her go, and Fan Shixian fell to the ground powerlessly, her face pale.
Lichun hurriedly helped her up, but Fan Shixian's legs were too weak to stand.
"Miss Fan was frightened."
"It's all my fault for not keeping a close eye on us. Assassins often appear in our Chu Palace, both during the day and at night. Therefore, any stranger who approaches the inner courtyard will be captured and beheaded."
"Without the order of the prince and princess, anyone approaching the inner courtyard will be arrested by the guards."
