Chapter 359 Shen Ruzhou, you did it on purpose!
In the cell next door, no matter how Mr. Zhou tried to coerce or induce her, Miao Dong insisted that she had picked up the wrench on Lishan Mountain. This was in perfect agreement with Shen Ruzhou's statement.
Frost gathered on Bei Xiuyan's face, and his dark eyes stared at Shen Ruzhou, as if he wanted to see through her.
"You'd better not lie to me, otherwise if something happens, I won't be able to save you."
Shen Ruzhou was frightened by the warning in his tone and shrank his neck inward, biting his lip secretly.
After hesitating for a moment, Shen Ruzhou finally made up his mind to tell Bei Xiuyan exactly what happened, but before she could speak, Bei Xiuyan's handsome figure had already walked out of the interrogation room.
As if someone had taken away his muscles and bones, Shen Ruzhou's legs slid down the corner and collapsed on the ground.
Her face was pale, her breathing was rapid, and her palms were sweaty.
Beixiu Yan is indeed as calm as the outside world said, and anyone will feel fear in front of him.
Shen Ruzhou was originally afraid of him, but after getting along with him during this time, Beixiu Yan protected her in every possible way, so much so that she almost forgot that it was Beixiu Yan who made people stay away and feared.
She didn't understand the reason for Beixiu Yan's warning or even anger. Although she did hide something, the ring finger had nothing to do with Xiao Chenyan's poisoning case. Why did Beixiu Yan just hold on to it?
While he was thinking, Qin Ming walked in and bowed respectfully, "Miss Shen, the regent has ordered that you have finished asking questions and you can leave."
Shen Ruzhou was stunned for a moment, then held on to the wall, stood up and walked out slowly. She was covered in cold sweat, her whole body was already exhausted, and her feet felt as light as stepping on cotton.
When Xiao Chenyan returned to the side hall where he was recuperating, the sun was already setting.
Xiao Chenyan took two doses of medicine and had recovered a lot. He squinted and lay on the soft couch while Shen Ruzhou performed acupuncture on him.
Shen Ruzhou was still thinking about what Bei Xiuyan said in the interrogation room and the way he looked when he said it. She always felt that something was wrong. She was so lost in thought that she didn't pay attention to her hand. When she applied the needle, it went deeper and blood came out.
Shen Ruzhou clearly felt Xiao Chenyan's body trembling and quickly pulled out the needle.
Her absent-minded and hurried look completely caught Xiao Chenyan's eyes. He frowned and said angrily: "Shen Ruzhou, did you do it on purpose?"
Only then did Shen Ruzhou come to his senses. Instead of thinking hard on his own, it would be better to look for clues from Xiao Chenyan.
"My lord, think carefully. Did you see anything unusual or see anyone suspicious before you were poisoned?"
"Hmph!" Xiao Chenyan raised his eyebrows with a cold expression, "Shen Ruzhou, now you know how to ask me for help in clearing the suspicion? Where is the arrogance of He Lishi?"
"Who brazenly said yesterday that he would never ask me for help in the future, and yet he was slapped in the face so quickly?"
Regarding Xiao Chenyan's ridicule, Shen Ruzhou was also expecting it and responded directly, "Xiao Chenyan, finding out the truth is not only to restore my innocence, but also to find out the person who harmed you. Otherwise, there is no guarantee that he will not do it in the future. I will poison you again, don’t you really think that you can be so lucky every time and survive without any danger?”
Feeling that the other party obviously didn't listen, Shen Ruzhou finished speaking and then added with a curled lip, "I'm here to catch the bad guy so that you can save your life. Don't be ungrateful!"
Xiao Chenyan's face turned pale. He sat up with his arms, looked at Shen Ruzhou with a dark look, and sneered: "I don't need your hypocritical concern. Now all the evidence points to you. You are the biggest suspect. If you find someone You won’t survive until new evidence uncovers the real culprit.”
Although Xiao Chenyan is weak and weak, his features are full of the arrogance and dignity inherent in the royal family. "Shen Ruzhou, after all, you are a couple with me. If you ask for help, I can consider it..."
"Please? Please, I am not Shen Ruzhou." Xiao Chenyan was decisively rejected by Shen Ruzhou before he could finish his words, "Please, why not ask for a dog? Dogs can also wag their tails and help me bite bad guys, and you , besides hurting me, what else will it do?"
For Xiao Chenyan, Shen Ruzhou was completely disappointed. She didn't count on him before, and she would never count on him in the future.But what she didn't expect was that he refused to tell the details of the poisoning when asked.
It was obvious that he was not cooperating, and he only wanted to embarrass her.
Shen Ruzhou was furious and pushed Xiao Chenyan down directly, "Get down, I'm going to pull out the needle."
She put one hand on Xiao Chenyan's shoulder, and quickly pulled out the needle on his back with the other hand.The action was rough and merciless.
Xiao Chenyan's forehead was so painful that veins popped out, and his face turned pale.
Concubine De came in with hot porridge and happened to see this scene. She was so angry that she put the tray on the table and became furious at Shen Ruzhou, "What are you doing? King Wucheng has a daughter of gold, but you are so harsh. Don’t you want to live anymore?”
Faced with Concubine De's accusation, Shen Ruzhou didn't even raise his head. He carefully wiped the recovered silver needle with gauze and said casually: "Concubine De, you have misunderstood. How dare I neglect King Wu Cheng? It's just that he is too poisoned. Therefore, the needle needs to be inserted deeper, and it will naturally hurt more when it is pulled out. If it does not hurt, it will have no effect. I am also doing this so that King Wu Cheng can recover as soon as possible."
Concubine De didn't know medical skills, so her eyes wandered around Shen Ruzhou suspiciously, unable to tell whether her words were true or false.
Concubine De came to the bed, took out her handkerchief, and wiped the sweat from Xiao Chenyan's forehead with a distressed look on her face. Seeing that her son was clenching his teeth tightly, and there was no trace of blood on his already pale face at this moment, she became even more angry. He turned around and threatened Shen Ruzhou, "You'd better be careful. If I ever find out that you've deliberately done something bad, I won't let you off easy."
Shen Ruzhou turned a deaf ear, lowered his head to pack the medicine box, and just wanted to leave quickly.
Concubine De thought that her words were too light and had no effect, so she continued: "Shen Ruzhou, you are the most suspected of Chen Yan's poisoning. When Dali Temple finds out, not only your life will be in danger, but also the entire general's palace. They will all be buried together."
Hearing this, Shen Ruzhou clicked the medicine box together and looked at Concubine De with sharp eyes, "Those who purify themselves will be purified. Concubine De will not have to threaten me with these words."
As she said that, she glanced sideways at Xiao Chenyan, who was lying on the soft couch, with a chill in her eyes and a curve at the corner of her lips, "Mother and son have a deep love, and I understand that Concubine De feels sorry for King Wu Cheng. But, this treatment Disease detoxification is a complicated process, and it’s better for Concubine De to be mentally prepared, as King Wu Cheng will have to endure a lot of hardships in the subsequent treatment.”
As soon as these words came out, Concubine De was so angry that her hands shook, and she pointed at Shen Ruzhou tremblingly to scold him.
When he opened his mouth, he seemed to suddenly think of something. He swallowed back the words that came to his lips, and his face changed from anger to pride.
She stood up straight, adjusted her sleeves, raised her head high, and said with a smile: "Shen Ruzhou, come out for a moment. I have something to tell you."
