The concubine escaped and cried when she met the prince again

Chapter 37 I will owe no one anything in the future

After hearing what Shen Ruolan said, the maid was so frightened that she quickly knelt down with the tray and said, "Your Highness is innocent. This meal was indeed eaten by the princess before she was poisoned."

Shen Ruolan was exhausted and didn't have much energy to fight with them. She sat down on Jiang Yingxue's bed and said indifferently, "I still say the same thing. If you want Jiang Yingxue to live, bring her food. Otherwise, even the Great Luo Immortal can't save her."

After she finished speaking, seeing that Jiang Dichen was about to get angry again, she said again: "I don't know what dose of poison she was poisoned with, so I don't know where to start."

Jiang Dichen understood Shen Ruolan's intention, and ordered his subordinates, "Come here, drag this slave away and give her fifty lashes."

"Yes, Your Highness." After Shi Nie finished speaking, he hurriedly came in with two companions and pulled the man out.

The maid was so frightened that she begged for mercy: "My lord, I am innocent, please forgive me..."

Jiang Dichen ignored the maid's pleas for mercy. He ordered the maids again, "Come here, bring here the food the princess ate today. If there is any dishonesty, drag her out and chop her into pieces."

"Yes, Your Highness." The nanny who was in charge of serving Jiang Yingxue saw that she could no longer keep it all under wraps, so she had to have someone bring over everything she had eaten and used.

Seeing that all the things had been moved in, Shen Ruolan stood up and checked each dish. Seeing that they were all very clean, she turned her attention to a bowl containing rice and vegetables. She picked it up and took a look. She saw a lot of medicinal powder in it. She couldn't help but sneer in her heart. It seemed that this princess really hated her and was willing to risk her life to deal with her.

Seeing that there was still medicine powder scattered on the table, she pointed at the powder and said to Jiang Dichen with a mocking look on her face: "Your Highness, this is the scattered medicine powder, do you see it?"

After saying that, seeing Jiang Dichen's puzzled expression, she pointed at the dishes on the table and said, "These dishes are non-toxic, only this bowl of rice and dishes is poisoned..."

Shen Ruolan paused, stretched out her fingers, and said to Jiang Dichen meaningfully, "Any finger that has been touched by the powder will have its nails blackened like mine. Even after washing, there is still a faint smell of medicine. If Your Majesty wants to know who poisoned the princess, just check the fingernails."

After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she ignored everyone and turned around and walked towards Jiang Yingxue.

Just now when she was taking Jiang Yingxue's pulse, she found some residual medicine powder on her fingers, so she was very sure that Jiang Yingxue had swallowed the poison herself.

The reason why she insisted on having the food she had eaten was simply because she wanted Jiang Dichen to see the true face of his sister, whom he held in his hands.

Shen Ruolan's mocking smile made Jiang Dichen feel uncomfortable. After hearing her words, he ordered his subordinates, "Come here, check the nails of everyone in the room. If you find the poisoner, chop her off."

"Yes, Your Highness." After receiving the order, Shi Nie asked all the servants in Muyun Courtyard to gather together and check them one by one.

A quarter of an hour later, he reported to his master: "Master, the servants' nails are all normal."

Shen Ruolan, who was preparing the silver needles, heard what Shi Nie said. She smiled at him and said, "Guard Shi, are you sure you have finished the inspection?"

Shi Nie looked at Shen Ruolan with some confusion and asked, "Concubine Lan, who else hasn't been checked?"

Shen Ruolan pulled a hand out from the bed and said to Shi Nie, "Here, isn't there another one?"

When Shi Nie saw his princess's nails, they were just as Shen Ruolan described. He was so shocked that his mouth opened wide. He glanced at his master and saw that he looked unhappy. He stood aside silently without saying a word.

Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Shen Ruolan said no more. She pulled away Jiang Yingxue's quilt, and because the situation was urgent, she took a pair of scissors and cut her dress from bottom to top, revealing her naked body.

Seeing this, Jiang Dichen quickly pulled down the bed curtains and put them over his sister, raised his hand and slapped Shen Ruolan, and shouted at her: "Lan Wanxi, you are looking for death!"

After seeing Shen Ruolan abusing his sister, Jiang Dichen was completely enraged. He drew out his sword with a "bang", pointed it at Shen Ruolan's neck, and said coldly: "Lan Wanxi, anyone who dares to touch my sister will die!"

His sister is his Achilles' heel, whoever touches her will die!

Shen Ruolan had just been beaten and her body had not yet recovered. Now she was slapped again, making her ears buzz.

She looked up at Jiang Dichen in confusion, and saw that he was pointing a sword at her. His mouth kept moving, and she couldn't hear what he was saying at all.

Shen Ruolan was already disheartened because of the hopelessness of escaping. Now she was slapped in the face, which made her completely lose all attachment to this strange and alien world. She turned around to look at Jiang Yingxue lying on the bed and smiled sadly at Jiang Dichen, "Well, it's good to have someone to accompany me on the road to the underworld."

As soon as she finished speaking, she rushed towards Jiang Dichen's sword.

Seeing this, Jingyun, who was closest to her, quickly pushed her aside and shouted, "Concubine Lan, don't do it."

Jiang Dichen was also shocked and quickly retracted his sword. He stared blankly at the woman who was determined to kill him, and felt inexplicably panicked. This was the third time this had happened to him today, and he didn't understand why he was like this.

Jing Yun was relieved to see Shen Ruolan escaped. He looked at his master and said, "Master, the one who can make such a poison is definitely not an ordinary person. Since the poison was made by Concubine Lan, let her help the princess."

Jiang Dichen listened to his subordinates, he put away his sword, and warned Shen Ruolan: "Lan Wanxi, you'd better not play any tricks, otherwise, I have thousands of ways to die waiting for you."

Shen Ruolan couldn't hear what Jiang Dichen was saying, but she could tell from his lip shape that it was definitely a warning. She slowly turned her head to look at Jiang Yingxue on the bed. No matter whether she cured her or not, she, Shen Ruolan, would have a hard time today. She simply closed her eyes and decided not to treat her. It was up to Jiang Dichen to kill her or cut her up as he pleased.

Seeing her like this, Jing Yun quickly shook her and said, "Concubine Lan, please show it to the princess quickly, otherwise it will be too late."

Shen Ruolan opened her eyes and looked at the man who was shaking her. She remembered that Wandong had once told her that her life was saved by a guard named Jingyun. She asked Jingyun, "Are you Jingyun?"

Jing Yun nodded to her quickly and said, "Concubine Lan, it's me."

Shen Ruolan nodded at him and said, "Okay, I'll save Jiang Yingxue this time as a repayment for your saving me last time, and I won't owe anyone anything in the future."

After saying that, she got up from the ground and said to Jiang Dichen with a cold face: "I can't be disturbed when I'm giving acupuncture. If you don't trust me, let Jingyun stay and help me. The rest of you can leave."
