Chapter 367 The finger snap belongs to Shen Ruzhou
Concubine De ran over and hugged Xiao Chenyan, shouting for the imperial doctor.
Mu Wanqing was so shocked that she froze on the spot and couldn't move even half a step.Could it be that besides King Yu, someone else was poisoning Xiao Chenyan?
At the foot of the cliff, Shen Ruzhou and Bei Xiuyan were both seriously injured, and they were walking in the dense forest supporting each other.
It was already dark. When they fell from the cliff, they happened to fall into the lake at the bottom of the cliff, and they were lucky enough to save their lives.
Their clothes were soaked and stuck tightly to their bodies. As night fell, the temperature in the valley became lower and lower. Shen Ruzhou shivered from the cold and kept sniffling.
Seeing this, Bei Xiuyan hugged her tighter, their skin touching each other, relying on each other's body temperature to keep each other warm.Shen Ruzhou knew very well that it was inappropriate for them to be like this, but he had just escaped from the assassins and experienced falling off a cliff. His belief in living had overcome everything, and he could not care about it anymore.
The mountain road was winding and winding, with no end in sight, and several howls of wild beasts could be heard from deep in the forest. Shen Ruzhou hugged Bei Xiuyan tightly, looked up at the man with firm and tenacious eyes, and felt safer than ever before. feel.
After walking for more than an hour, Beixiu Yan saw a cave ahead, so he took Shen Ruzhou in to rest temporarily.
Beixiu Yan found some dry branches and lit a fire. The two sat down around the fire. Shen Ruzhou's bun was completely loose. She simply took off the hairpin and loosened her black hair to dry it in the light of the fire.
Although she was in a mess and her hair was disheveled.But there is an indescribable beauty, which is natural beauty, and it is natural beauty without any decoration.
Shen Ruzhou rubbed his hair and said with a smile: "When people outside hear that I fell off a cliff, will they think that I committed suicide out of fear of crime? Then my charges of poisoning King Wu Cheng and murdering my husband will be confirmed. "
"No. I have identified the murderer and sent Qin Ming to the palace to report to the emperor before I came here." Beixiu Yan casually picked up a branch and started the fire to make the fire burn brighter.
Shen Ruzhou said in surprise: "The murderer was found so quickly. When did it happen?"
Bei Xiuyan stared at the dancing fire in front of him. He had secretly guided Jun Wu to find the evidence. As for whether to catch the murderer or not, it all depended on Xiao Chenyan's plan.
However, according to Xiao Chenyan's usual style of acting, I'm afraid he won't take action against Prince Yu now.
When Shen Ruzhou saw that Bei Xiu was silent at the banquet, he thought it was inconvenient for him to reveal too many details of the investigation.But he couldn't help but ask.
"Did King Yu do it?" Shen Ruzhou and Bei Xiuyan confirmed the identity of the murderer.
Beixiu Yan suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Shen Ruzhou with burning eyes, "How did you know it was Prince Yu?"
"I guessed it." As for how she guessed it, Shen Ruzhou didn't want to say more. Although the poisoning didn't happen in the previous life, the incident of King Yu poisoning Xiao Chenyan did indeed happen in the subsequent heirloom. This is why Shen Ruzhou studied medicine in his previous life, in order to protect Xiao Chenyan from being poisoned by King Yu.
It's ridiculous to think about it. This medical skill that I'm so proud of was actually learned for Xiao Chenyan's safety.
Bei Xiuyan clearly felt that Shen Ruzhou didn't want to talk to him anymore. He looked at Shen Ruzhou deep in thought with dark eyes and didn't ask any more questions.
Shen Ruzhou looked at the full moon outside and sighed, "I originally planned to detoxify Xiao Chenyan and go home for a visit. I also asked my grandmother to inform me in advance that she had prepared my favorite white fungus soup, but I didn't want to meet the assassin. Grandma I must be worried that it’s broken.”
Seeing Shen Ruzhou's rare display of his little daughter's weak side, Bei Xiuyan's eyes felt pity, and he comforted in a gentle voice: "Tomorrow my guards will come, and then I will arrange for someone to send news to the General's Mansion. You don’t have to worry too much.”
"By the way, if I delay giving Xiao Chenyan the acupuncture, will he get poisonous again?"
"I have used methods to suppress the remaining poison in his body. As long as he doesn't take medicine randomly, he will be fine." Shen Ruzhou confidently answered Bei Xiuyan's doubts.
"What if he takes the antidote at this time?" Beixiu Yan seemed to have thought of something and confirmed with Shen Ruzhou again.
Since King Yu had already been poisoned, why would he obediently take out the antidote?
Although he was puzzled, Shen Ruzhou still answered truthfully, "The antidote to this poison is originally poison, and it is detoxified using the method of fighting poison with poison. However, time was tight at the time and I did not have time to develop the antidote, so I used gastric lavage to clean out the toxin." To save Xiao Chenyan’s life, so if he takes the antidote now, it will be equivalent to taking poison again. Not only will he not recover, but it will make his body worse.”
As the night deepened, the coldness in the mountains became even worse. Shen Ruzhou curled up into a ball and kept swaying.
She was already injured, and after soaking in the cold lake water, her body began to have a fever, her head became dizzy, and she kept shouting, "It's so cold, so cold."
Bei Xiuyan covered her body with his dry clothes and reached out to touch her forehead. It was very hot.
As if looking for warmth, Shen Ruzhou unconsciously crawled into Bei Xiuyan's arms, restlessly rubbing his head on his chest.
Bei Xiuyan's hand was frozen in mid-air, unable to move at all.
An electric shock-like feeling suddenly came over me. This numbness was exactly the same as the feeling in the cave of Lishan Mountain.
While Shen Ruzhou was half asleep, Bei Xiuyan asked softly: "Whose finger ring is it?"
Shen Ruzhou said in a daze: "It's mine. That time I got lost in Lishan Mountain and accidentally fell into a cave. There was a person inside. He, he gave me this ring."
Hearing this, Bei Xiuyan's pupils shrank suddenly. It turned out to be Shen Ruzhou. The woman who spent the night with him in Lishan was Shen Ruzhou.
After saying that, Shen Ruzhou fell asleep and dreamed that she fell into a deep and dark hole. Because she broke her leg, she couldn't move. In the darkness, a man came over and raped her. Her clothes fell on her body.
"Ah!" Shen Ruzhou shouted in shock.She opened her eyes and felt ashamed when she thought of the scene in her dream.
She was raped by a strange man.
This is the memory that she has been trying to avoid but can't get rid of.
Bei Xiuyan was awakened by her cry and thought she had a nightmare. He was about to ask, but saw Shen Ruzhou quickly escape from his arms.Even the clothes covering him were taken off.
Bei Xiuyan didn't think much about it. After all, it was really inappropriate for the two of them to be together in their current status.He took the clothes and put them on. The sound of an eagle whistle came from outside. Beixiu Yan took out the whistle from his waist and blew a reply. Then he said to Shen Ruzhou, "Do you know who sent the assassin?"
Seeing Shen Ruzhou shaking his head in confusion, Bei Xiuyan said again: "The assassin failed to succeed this time. There is no guarantee that there will be another time. When you return to Kyoto, you should hide for now and don't show up."
"Okay, it's all up to the regent's arrangement." Shen Ruzhou agreed decisively.
