It was a good thing for them to be able to get Pei Chenshuo's gratitude, especially since Pei Chenshuo owed them a favor. If there was anything he needed the Royal Highness to help him with, he would not reject it.
Pei Chenshuo asked the butler to send the imperial physicians back while he sat by Si Muran's bed. He looked at her pale face, which still did not have a trace of blood. Pei Chenshuo was worried.
Pei Chenshuo stayed in the room for a long time until the maid brought in the antidote. Pei Chenshuo looked at the bowl of medicine and said coldly to the maid,""Put the medicine there." For some reason, Pei Chenshuo did not want anyone to disturb their rare quiet time.
The maid who delivered the medicine was very puzzled, but she did not dare to ask any more questions. She replied and left the room.
Pei Chenshuo looked at the medicine, then at Si Muran. He shook his head helplessly, his face resigned to his fate. He picked up the medicine on the table. It looked like he was going to feed Si Muran the medicine himself. This was as strange as the sun rising from the west.
However, Si Muran showed no signs of waking up, which made him even more anxious. Wasn't this woman usually very arrogant? But her current appearance made him a little nervous?
Suddenly, a charming female voice sounded in the room." Your Highness really knows how to take pity on women."”
She was wearing a red silk dress with a very low neckline, revealing her voluptuous breasts. Her face was like a hibiscus, her eyebrows were like willows, and her eyes were more charming than peach blossoms. Her skin was as white as snow, and her black hair was tied up into a high bun. The beads on her head were dazzling under the sunlight, and her bright red lips were slightly raised. What a beautiful woman.
Si Muran didn't know why she could see such a scene. She was clearly still unconscious, but her consciousness had suddenly woken up. As a result, it was as if her soul had left her body.
Naturally, Pei Chenshuo and the beauty could not see her because she was floating above their heads. If they could see her, they would definitely think that she was a demon or a ghost.
Si Muran couldn't help but mutter in her heart," Did he die again? No way! She couldn't possibly be so unlucky, right?
Pei Chenshuo was not surprised to see the woman, but he still asked," Why are you here?”
Si Muran came back to her senses and continued looking at them.
Si Muran noticed that Pei Chenshuo's tone was very gentle, unlike the usual fierce look he had when he was with her. This made her curious about what kind of relationship he had with this woman.
"If I hadn't come, wouldn't I have seen you fall for this girl?”The woman's tone was full of resentment, sounding like she was acting coquettishly towards Pei Chenshuo. However, Si Muran could clearly see the hatred in her eyes. She could not remember how she had provoked this woman, so it must have something to do with Pei Chenshuo.
Pei Chenshuo laughed lightly, as if he thought that the woman's words were ridiculous." I won't fall for her. In my eyes, she's just a chess piece that can be used."”
Although Si Muran knew that this would be the result, but hearing Pei Chenshuo say it himself, she could not help but feel a dull pain in her heart. Even her mood to watch the show was completely destroyed, but she still managed to maintain the smile on her face, even though no one could see it now.
The woman looked at Pei Chenshuo and said," I'll believe you this time."”After saying that, he threw a provocative look at Si Muran, who was lying on the bed. Actually, it was more of disdain towards her.
She was just a little concubine daughter of the minister's residence, and she actually wanted to become Chen Shuo's concubine. She must have eaten the guts of a leopard to be so overconfident!
"I don't think you're here to see her, right?”Pei Chenshuo could tell that the woman disliked Si Muran and did not want to continue the topic.
"Of course not. She's not worth my special trip. I'm here to ask if you've found Jinlin.”
Upon hearing Jinlin's name, Si Muran knew that this woman was not here to meet her lover at night. There must be an even more unspeakable relationship between them.
"By the time I arrived, Jinlin was already gone. None of the people who were captured had given up. They must be the men of sacrifice trained by Jinlin or someone else.”Pei Chenshuo admired the spirit of these men of sacrifice. If they still could not get anything out of him, he would choose to give them a quick death.
"Perhaps we can find a breakthrough from the Empress Dowager. Jinlin is her woman. She will definitely know where Jinlin is.”
The woman's words made Si Muran realize that Jinlin was actually the empress dowager's subordinate. No wonder he was so fearless. Even if he had evidence, he might not be able to arrest him without a fight, not to mention that she had no evidence of him kidnapping her.
Pei Chenshuo frowned when he heard the word " Empress Dowager ". His tone was filled with disgust." Empress Dowager prefers to stay behind the scenes, but we have to be wary of that old woman."”
"If it weren't for the Empress Dowager's orders, Jinlin wouldn't have kidnapped this girl and even prepared to kill her.”
Si Muran found the smug expression on the woman's face unpleasant. She waved her fist and punched her face fiercely. Of course, there was no result, but fortunately, she could still vent her anger. Who asked his body to lie on the bed as if it was dead and unable to move?
After she calmed down, Si Muran calmed down and listened to their conversation.
It turned out that the emperor of the Celestial Pole Kingdom had achieved his hegemony because of the Heavenly Works Canon. Moreover, it was not the entire Heavenly Works Canon, but only a small part of it. Therefore, if he could get the complete Heavenly Works Canon, he would be invincible.
Si Muran indeed didn't know anything about the " Canon of Heavenly Works ", but it must have something to do with the encyclopedia in her mind. From the woman's words, she could deduce that the few problems of plane geometry and the subsequent gunpowder preparation were all from the " Canon of Heavenly Works ". The empress dowager was certain that Si Muran must have read the contents of the 'Heavenly Works Canon' even if she didn't have it. Therefore, she had to get rid of it to prevent future trouble.
Ever since Si Muran had transmigrated, there were more and more people who wanted to get rid of her. Her situation was getting more and more dangerous. Moreover, Pei Chenshuo had already admitted that he was using her. Who else could she trust now?
Si Muran couldn't help but feel sad for herself. Deep in this alternate world, she realized that there was no place for her at all. She might as well remain a ghost and be more at ease. At least no one would be able to catch her.
"Chenshuo, I think Si Muran must know where the 'Heavenly Works Canon' is. She must have seen it before.”The woman's attitude was very firm. If she had only seen it, how could she always figure out the solution at the critical moment? However, she didn't have the Canon of Heavenly Works with her. Therefore, it must be nearby.
"F * ck your sister!" Si Muran couldn't help but curse. This woman had appeared with the intention of killing her, right? Haven't you heard that it's a crime to carry a jade pendant? Pei Chenshuo had already confirmed that she did not have the Heavenly Works Canon with her, yet she said that it was near her. This woman's ill intentions were too obvious.
"I've been in contact with her for so long, but I haven't found any trace of the Heavenly Works Canon.”It turned out that Pei Chenshuo had been paying attention to this matter. Si Muran, who was floating in the air, felt that she was a fool who had been kept in the dark.
"That's why you have to marry her. Only in this way can she really let down her guard against you. At that time, she might take the initiative to tell you where the Heavenly Works Canon is.”
He had a motive for getting close to her and marrying her. Si Muran suddenly felt that Pei Chenshuo had been putting on an act in front of her every day. It was really 'hard' on him. Presumably, his protection of her was also part of the plan. After all, saving a damsel in distress was the easiest way to capture a woman's heart. Every step that Pei Chenshuo took seemed to have a purpose.
Of course, Pei Chenshuo could not hear Si Muran's cold laughter, but he felt that something was wrong in the room. He turned his gaze to Si Muran who was lying on the bed, but he was caught by the viper in front of him.
The woman's voice was filled with grief." Do you like her that much?”
Si Muran did not feel that Pei Chenshuo liked her at all. He was probably wondering if she was awake. Otherwise, he would not have pushed her so hard. Did he have to be so heartless?
Si Muran didn't like the state of her soul. Although they couldn't see her, she couldn't touch them either, which made the adulterous couple so arrogant.
"I don't like her." Pei Chenshuo's voice did not waver at all. He did not even look at Si Muran.
"Are you sure you won't fall in love with her?”The woman slowly wrapped her arms around Pei Chenshuo's waist, her graceful body pressed against his chest, her jade-like hands burning all over his body.
Si Muran felt a little guilty. What if the next part was unsuitable for children? Should she float out now?
Pei Chenshuo had no intention of pushing the woman away, but he did not do anything else. With a beauty in his arms, Pei Chenshuo was actually able to be a concubine. Could it be that he was already unable to do it?
Si Muran had a bad heart and hoped that he would never be able to be a human being for the rest of his life. However, a long time later, the facts proved that Si Muran hoped even more that the curse at that time would come true.
"I will never fall in love with her. I'm just using her because only in this way can I find the whereabouts of the Heavenly Works Canon.”When Pei Chenshuo spoke, Si Muran's voice and smile appeared in his mind, making his tone uncertain.
Another Heavenly Works Canon? If there really was a Heavenly Works Canon, Si Muran would definitely burn it in front of everyone. It would be a wonderful scene to watch the thing that they had been looking forward to turn into ashes.
The woman's face broke into a smile at Pei Chenshuo's words." That's good." I should go back to the palace. You must not fall in love with her.”The woman lightly tapped on Pei Chenshuo's lips and disappeared without a trace.# Cancel all reviews: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 55PM #
