Back to the day I married my second wife, I turned around and married my ex-husband's uncle
Chapter 63 Assassination
Seeing Qin Shuangchi so nervous, it didn't seem like he was joking.
Jiang Ningwan had no choice but to push him out of the room quickly. When he went downstairs, he found that everyone in the restaurant had collapsed.
She went forward to check his breath and found that he was still alive, just unconscious.
What a rampant assassin!
The restaurant was filled with smoke. Jiang Ningwan immediately covered her mouth and nose and ran out.
As a result, the carriage also disappeared.
"Your Highness, didn't you bring Xiao Lan with you when you went out?" The streets were pitch black, and murderous intent was hidden in the silence.
"You don't need to bring him with you to your appointment."
Jiang Ningwan's heart sank. "I thank the prince for his trust."
The clothes fluttered in the air, and a black shadow followed closely and landed on the eaves across the street. He smiled sinisterly with his big white teeth, slowly raised his arm, and shot out the sleeve arrow again.
This time she was prepared. Jiang Ningwan pushed the wheelchair and ran away, and the sleeve arrow brushed past the hem of her clothes.
"Hold on tight, my Lord!"
Jiang Ningwan gritted her teeth and pushed Qin Shuangchi to run wildly, trying her best to run on the street.
The man behind them was chasing them relentlessly, shooting an arrow from time to time, but the arrows always shot in front, behind, left and right of them, and never hit them.
But it puts their lives in threat.
Qin Shuangchi held on to the chair tightly, his heart was in turmoil.
A wild laugh came from behind: "Hahahaha, how could the dignified Northland God of War escape so miserably?"
The sneer made Jiang Ningwan look back. Her sharp eyes were full of murderous intent. She remembered that smug face deeply.
If Qin Shuangchi hadn't been here tonight, she would have had to fight that guy for a few moves!
This is not an assassination, this is a joke!
Play with them like monkeys.
The hidden arrows did not intend to really hit them, but just wanted to see them flee in embarrassment under the attack of the hidden arrows.
This was a naked humiliation for the former Northland God of War!
Thinking that Qin Shuangchi was poisoned and in urgent need of medical treatment, Jiang Ningwan did not slow down and ran towards the Prince Chu's Mansion.
Fortunately, they met Xiao Lan who came to pick them up halfway and immediately escorted them back to the Prince of Chu's Palace.
Jiang Ningwan went back to Jiang's house to get a needle bag and some antidote herbs.
Rushing back to the Prince Chu's mansion, everyone was extremely nervous. Jiang Ningwan calmly ordered, "Lift the prince to the bed and undress him."
Qin Shuangchi's face had turned blue, he was severely poisoned, and Xiao Lan immediately did as he was told.
Then she took out the silver needles and carefully inserted the needles into several acupuncture points near Qin Shuangchi's heart meridian, stimulating and stabilizing the acupuncture points, using the body's defenses to quickly force the poison out.
"Puff——" Qin Shuangchi suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Your Highness!" Xiao Lan's face changed drastically.
Jiang Ningwan took Qin Shuangchi's pulse and immediately pressed the acupuncture points on his chest to block the meridians, which would temporarily prevent the remaining poison in the body from spreading to the heart meridian.
The poison was under control, but she discovered that there was a strange internal force in Qin Shuangchi's body, which was restless. She didn't know whether it was good or bad for him.
"Your life is safe. I will prescribe some medicine for you to take."
Jiang Ningwan prepared the herbs and handed them to Xiao Lan.
"Thank you, Miss Jiang!" Xiao Lan immediately arranged for someone to boil the medicine.
After a while, Xiao Lan came to deliver the medicine and reported, "Your Highness, Tianxing Tower has been checked and no thieves have been found. Everyone in Tianxing Tower is safe and sound."
"Do we need to expand the search area?"
Qin Shuangchi held the medicine, his eyes cold, and said lightly: "No need."
Jiang Ningwan was slightly startled. "Why don't you investigate? That guy is so rampant, how can we let him go?"
After a moment of hesitation, Jiang Ningwan frowned, "Do you know him?"
Xiao Lan clenched his fists angrily, "It should be Mo Yuanxing!"
"Mo Yuanxing?" Jiang Ningwan suddenly felt that the name sounded familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere before.
At this time, Qin Shuangchi slowly said: "He is Mo Xuzi's apprentice. The poisonous palm on my chest was left by Mo Xuzi."
"When Mo Xuzi attacked me, I cut off his arm. Mo Yuanxing wanted to avenge his master, and this isn't the first time he's tried to assassinate me."
Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan seemed to be lost in thought.
"Is this Mo Xuzi so powerful? What grudge does he have with the prince?"
Xiao Lan angrily said, "There's no grudge! Mo Xuzi is skilled in the use of poison, and his poison palm is famous in the martial arts world. At that time, the prince's leg was injured on the battlefield. Originally, there was a chance of recovery, but Mo Xuzi ambushed him and hit him with the poison palm. The leg will never heal."
"However, Mo Xuzi also suffered a loss at that time and lost an arm. That arm is still in the palace today."
Jiang Ningwan was surprised, "Why would the severed arm be left in the palace?"
"There are some magical skills in the martial arts world that can reattach a broken arm, so this broken arm can only be brought back and locked up."
"But after so many years, even if there is a broken arm, it probably can't be reattached."
After listening, Jiang Ningwan finally understood the reason.
"But this man has already entered Kyoto. If we don't catch him, he will definitely come back to assassinate us."
Xiao Lan turned his head and glanced at the King of Chu, then replied, "We will pay attention to this matter. Thank you, Miss Jiang, for today."
Jiang Ningwan also heard that they didn't want her to be involved in this matter.
It has nothing to do with her, so I won’t ask any more questions.
"Then I'll go first."
Just as she stood up to leave, her wrist suddenly tightened, and Jiang Ningwan was slightly startled.
Turning his head, Qin Shuangchi withdrew his hand somewhat embarrassedly.
His face was pale, and he spoke in a low voice: "Answer your previous question."
"It doesn't matter who a dying man marries."
Jiang Ningwan's heart trembled, and she couldn't help but clench her fists. After a moment of hesitation, she finally said frankly, "My father wants me to fulfill the engagement."
Qin Shuangchi froze slightly, his face was calm, his emotions were undetectable, and he did not answer.
The atmosphere became a little strange.
Xiao Lan also felt uncomfortable in the room and quickly made an excuse, "I'm going to check on Mo Yuanxing."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Jiang Ningwan's heart was in her throat, not knowing what his silence meant.
It's the same no matter who you marry.
But as a second-married woman, it is inevitable that she cannot help but feel disgusted.
She dug her nails into her palms and said, "I'm going back first."
After saying that, he quickly fled.
When Jiang Ningwan ran out of the room, Qin Shuangchi couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
Xiao Lan, who was about to leave the room, saw this and his face suddenly changed. He stepped forward quickly, "King..."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Qin Shuangchi immediately made a hushing gesture and glanced towards the door vigilantly.
After making sure Jiang Ningwan was not there, he spoke: "Bring the Shengyuan Yangqi Pills."
Xiao Lan's expression became serious when he heard this. He went to get the medicine bottle, poured out a pill and handed it to Qin Shuangchi.
I also checked how many pills were left in the bottle.
"Your Majesty, there aren't many pills left. I'm afraid they won't last for a year..."
If the prince takes this pill, it means he will have no choice but to wait for death.
"There's still a year left, we can always make it again." Qin Shuangchi said calmly.
Xiao Lan was worried. "Miss Wangyou said that the prince must always remain calm and not have too many mood swings, otherwise it will cause backlash and damage the body. The prince was fine just now, why did he suddenly..."
Qin Shuangchi's palms tightened slightly under his sleeves, and the words just now were in his mind.
I was in a trance for a while.
Seeing that the prince refused to speak, Xiao Lan stopped asking and said, "I will find out the whereabouts of Miss Wangyou as soon as possible."
It would take several months to make this pill, and he and the prince didn't have much time left.
Jiang Ningwan returned to the Jiang residence in a depressed mood, recalling what happened tonight. This was the second time Qin Shuangchi saved her.
Is saving people his habit?
If not.
Then why did he remain silent when she mentioned that her father wanted her to fulfill the engagement?
Is it possible to marry someone in a substitute marriage?
What should we do with the Ling family’s ancestral home?
There are also Lin Qinglai and her daughter.
Too many things were stuck, making her feel confused.
Suddenly, a faint laughter came from outside the house: "Beauty, are you thinking about me?"
The sinister laughter immediately made Jiang Ningwan's hair stand on end.
Stand up.
