The daughter of the emperor is reborn to be beautiful and cool, and the King of Zhenbei loves her wi

As the hysterical scream ended, Xie Wanting fell to the ground with a thud, curling up in extreme pain.

At first, she was able to scream, but in the blink of an eye, she could no longer make any sound. She stared at the Second Prince Xiao Shihua and silently said with her mouth: "Second Prince...what did you give me to drink..."

However, she didn't even have time to finish saying this sentence. I'm afraid she didn't even have time to regret it before bright red blood flowed out of her seven orifices. In an instant, she was completely lifeless, looking extremely creepy.

Seeing this, Xiao Shihua didn't seem to be surprised at all. He shook his head and said, "Oh, sorry, I forgot that this tea is really poisonous."

As he said that, he turned to look at Shen Nanzhi and smiled brightly: "Miss Shen is right. There is nothing I can do. Miss Shen is so cunning. If I don't use this tea to feint, how can I tell if Miss Shen has any tricks up her sleeve?"

I'm afraid it's more than that.

He did this on purpose for Shen Nanzhi to see, to see what Shen Nanzhi would do in an emergency. If Shen Nanzhi had lost control and revealed his cards at that time, he would have no chance of winning now.

If Xiao Huaimin had drunk the tea at that time, he would have died suddenly before he could reach Zhengyang Gate or the carriage was on the street!

Fortunately, Shen Nanzhi stopped Xiao Huaimin and resisted the urge to act rashly.

In his eyes, Xie Wanting was nothing but a worthless life.

Can be erased at will.

The meaning of her existence is just to cover up for him and become his cover.

From the very beginning, he had no intention of letting Xie Wanting walk out of this room alive.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Jinxuan felt cold all over because of fear. She was on the verge of mental collapse and could no longer bear it, and fainted.

"Sister Zhou!"

Shen Nanzhi hurriedly called out nervously: "Sister Zhou!"

Zhou Jinxuan is in poor health, and if he delays any further, the situation will only get worse.

Just at this moment, Xiao Shihua raised his eyes and showed Shen Nanzhi a sly smile: "Instead of worrying about others, Miss Shen might as well take care of yourself first."

Upon hearing this, Shen Nanzhi felt something was wrong.

Sure enough, the next moment the red snake wrapped around her suddenly increased its strength, wrapping Shen Nanzhi so tightly that she could hardly breathe.

Shen Nanzhi subconsciously turned her head to look at the maid who was squatting in the corner.

The maid had been helped to sit on a bamboo chair nearby and turned around.

She was actually wearing a copper mask that covered her entire face, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.

But even though he couldn't see the face clearly, the pair of eyes full of resentment made Shen Nanzhi's heart suddenly sink.

is her.

Even if the owner of those eyes turned into ashes, Shen Nanzhi would recognize him.

But today she is emaciated and curled up in a corner, nothing like she used to be. In addition, in Shen Nanzhi's opinion, she should have died long ago.

She never expected that she would meet him here.

Jiang Yanran.

She's not dead.

Not only was she not dead, it seemed that the tendons in her hands and feet had been reconnected. However, they had not yet fully recovered, so she could not stand and could only move around by squatting or leaning on a bamboo chair.

With just one glance, Shen Nanzhi could be sure it was her.

Shen Nanzhi looked at her coldly, and she also stared at Shen Nanzhi.

Even because of the resentment in her heart, the red snake was able to sense it and could not help but wrap around Shen Nanzhi tighter and tighter.

"Long time no see, my dear sister."

It seems that not only her hands and feet were healed, but even her throat, which was made mute by Shen Nanzhi, could speak again.

But as soon as she opened her mouth, the rough sound coming from her throat, as if it had been rubbed by sandpaper, made people feel uncomfortable and creepy.

She pushed the bamboo chair towards Shen Nanzhi, her eyes looking as if she wanted to eat Shen Nanzhi alive.

In fact, with Jiang Yanran's deep hatred for Shen Nanzhi, she would definitely do such a thing!

Xiao Shihua was standing by the window not far away with his hands behind his back, as if he didn't care about Jiang Yanran's next move, and he didn't care at all about Shen Nanzhi's life or death.

At this point, how could Shen Nanzhi not understand?

After falling into the water from the pleasure boat that day, Jiang Yanran did not drown, but was taken away by Getana.

It is not known what kind of deal they reached, but Getana cured Jiang Yanran and taught her the art of controlling snakes.

And Xiao Shihua had already secretly colluded with Getana and other northern barbarians.

Shen Nanzhi even suspected that Getana, who had been seriously injured by her before, was hidden with the help of Xiao Shihua.

Before, Shen Nanzhi had always thought that Xiao Shihua was going to deal with the eldest prince Xiao Huaimin, so it was natural and reasonable for him to kidnap Zhou Jinxuan to threaten Xiao Huaimin, but why did he bring her along?

She didn't have a very close relationship with them before. If she hadn't witnessed it with her own eyes, Shen Nanzhi wouldn't even dare to believe that Zhou Jinxuan would risk his life for her. Moreover, Xiao Shihua had already captured Zhou Jinxuan, so there was no need to go to the trouble of capturing Shen Nanzhi.

What's more, Xiao Shihua is not a fool. He knows that even Emperor Shunqing will side with the Shen family at this time, so there is no need for him to offend the Shen family.

Now Shen Nanzhi knows.

It was obvious that he had reached an agreement with Jiang Yanran or Getana. They wanted Shen Nanzhi's life. At the same time, they would take the blame for what happened today for Xiao Shihua and become Xiao Shihua's scapegoats.

This is a win-win situation for them. After all, they came to Beijing to provoke a war. Now that Da Qi is in civil strife, the timing is even better.

Therefore, not only Xie Wanting and Xiao Huaimin were going to die, but even Shen Nanzhi and Zhou Jinxuan, Xiao Shihua had no intention of letting them go from the very beginning.

With Getana as his cover, he has nothing to worry about.

By then he will push everything onto Getana and the Northern Barbarians, there will be no evidence against them, and he will get away with it!

This is his overall plan today.

Thinking of this, Shen Nanzhi felt a chill on her back. Fortunately, she did not take action at the beginning, and fortunately, she stopped Xiao Huaimin from drinking the cup of life-threatening tea.

Otherwise, knowing that Xiao Huaimin was doomed to die, Xiao Shihua would have sent her and Zhou Jinxuan off without waiting.

Although his men had followed Xiao Huaimin out before, there was no definite news coming back, so Xiao Shihua did not dare to act rashly.

However, even though he had seen through their plan, Shen Nanzhi did not dare to act rashly for a moment.

Because, there is another Zhou Jinxuan.

Without complete certainty, Shen Nanzhi dared not act rashly.

Moreover, for Zhou Jinxuan, she is still entangled by the red snake.

"How are you, my dear sister?"

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Yanran's bamboo chair was already in front of Shen Nanzhi.

She looked at Shen Nanzhi through the mask and said through gritted teeth: "You must not have expected that I'm still alive!"

The deeper the hatred in Jiang Yanran's eyes, the harder the red snake wrapped around her.

Shen Nanzhi almost suspected that she could communicate with the snake's mind.

While she was thinking quickly about countermeasures, she looked up at Jiang Yanran and said, "Do you think that if you kill me, you can leave alive today?"

As he spoke, Shen Nanzhi looked up at Xiao Shihua who was watching the show from the sidelines not far away.

The mantis stalks the cicada while the oriole follows behind.

He was clearly a player in the game, but in the end he could be the pawn, using Jiang Yanran and others to take credit.

He gets all the good things.

Seeing this, Jiang Yanran smiled instead of getting angry and said, "It doesn't matter. As long as I can kill you, I'm willing to do it even if it means I go to hell immediately."

"You were responsible for the deaths of my father and brother, right?"

As she spoke, she grasped the dagger and wanted to gesture to Shen Nanzhi. However, perhaps because the meridians on her wrist had not yet healed, her hand holding the dagger was still shaking a little, and she could hardly hold it steady.

But even so, she still smiled and said, "Look, my hands are also thanks to you. I wanted to use this dagger to cut a few knives on your face, but now I have changed my mind."

Jiang Yanran said with a sigh, "It's a pity to ruin this face so quickly."

Her voice was extremely unpleasant, and the words she said were even more disgusting.

She turned to look at Xiao Shihua and said, "Second Prince, you still have a few secret guards hiding outside. If you have nothing else to do, you might as well ask them to come in and serve my good sister. After all, my good sister treated me the same way in the past, and was even more cruel."

When she said the last sentence, Jiang Yanran's eyes almost spewed fire.

"Don't worry, after they have taken good care of you, I won't kill you so quickly. I will have to cut at least a hundred cuts on your body. I can't hold the knife steadily, so I can't control the severity. Don't be angry, sister. Of course, I will dig out your heart and liver in the end to feed Xiaohong. Let's play slowly."

Hearing this, Xiao Shihua smiled and said, "You two sisters can solve the problem between yourselves. If you need help, just tell us directly. But I'm afraid you have to wait another quarter of an hour."

The clepsydra on the table had only gone halfway.

Before the news came back, Xiao Shihua didn't want to act rashly even though he was sure of victory.

Jiang Yanran was obviously a little dissatisfied with his attitude. She snorted coldly and turned her head away, gritting her teeth and said, "Second Prince, Xiaohong can't wait that long!"

Xiao Shihua raised his eyes and smiled: "Isn't there a ready-made one here? This snake pill is made from the venom of this thing. Anyway, the poison won't kill it, so eat it first."

As he said that, he kicked Xie Wanting's body on the ground towards Jiang Yanran.

Immediately, a maid came forward and dug out Jiang Yanran's heart and liver with a dagger.

Unlike normal people, his heart and liver turned dark red in just a moment.

Even though he had seen this scene on the deck before, Shen Nanzhi still felt physically uncomfortable at this moment.

Although Jiang Yanran was not very willing, she was still a little afraid of Xiao Shihua, so she snorted coldly.

Shen Nanzhi didn't even see how she moved. The red snake that had originally entangled Shen Nanzhi to the point where he could hardly breathe suddenly let go of Shen Nanzhi and went straight to the heart and liver that had just been dug out and was still steaming.

Its crawling movements even make people feel its impatience.

Just as it was about to eat the heart and liver in one bite, Shen Nanzhi, who was originally tied up by ropes, suddenly broke free and turned over.

Jiang Yanran was right next to Shen Nanzhi.

She was certain that Shen Nanzhi had been poisoned by a muscle softening powder and was tied up tightly with ropes. Under such circumstances, he posed no threat to her, so she let down her guard.

Unexpectedly, Shen Nanzhi had already hidden the dagger on the inside of his arm. After being tied to the armchair, the dagger had already slipped into his palm. He could cut the rope in an instant and then pounce on Jiang Yanran.

Shen Nanzhi didn't even give Jiang Yanran time to react before he snatched the dagger that Jiang Yanran was holding in her hand and was about to cut her face.

The knife fell from his hand, blood splattered everywhere.

Shen Nanzhi didn't even wait for Jiang Yanran to give the red snake any instructions, nor did he say a word, he directly cut Jiang Yanran's throat.

Warm blood splashed all over Shen Nanzhi.

Looking at Jiang Yanran's eyes that were unwilling to close, Shen Nanzhi said coldly: "My dear sister, you have been fooled by the same trick again. Since you didn't die before, you might as well die again."

Previously, on the carriage going to Shili Pavilion to welcome Jiang Shiyan back to Beijing, Jiang Yanran failed to drug Shen Nanzhi and was tricked by Shen Nanzhi. The same thing happened today.

Shen Nanzhi was also not hit and killed her again.

Because of Shen Nanzhi's great strength, her body was thrown directly to the ground, hitting the ground with a loud bang.

At the same time, the mask on her face fell off, revealing a face covered with hideous scars that could no longer recognize her original features, and eyes that were almost bulging out.

Until her death, Jiang Yanran's eyes were filled with deep hatred for Shen Nanzhi.

The red snake then realized something was wrong. When it reacted and turned its head to rush towards Shen Nanzhi, Shen Nanzhi directly smashed the armchair into its vital point.

The red snake is thick and long, and moves very fast, but its weaknesses are also very obvious.

Bang!

With a dull thud, the armchair hit the red snake's vital point accurately. Although it could not hurt it, it made it retreat a distance in pain. The whole snake body coiled up together, ready to gather strength again and launch towards Shen Nanzhi.

However, this time its head had just stood up, but before it could gather enough strength, it suddenly seemed as if its soul was sucked out of it, and it fell headfirst to the ground in an instant, unable to move at all.

At this point, Xiao Shihua, who was leaning against the window not far away, changed his expression drastically.

When Shen Nanzhi killed Jiang Yanran, he was still able to remain calm. After all, there was still the snake in the room, and although the person next to him was a maid, she was also agile, and there were even more people lying in ambush outside.

But until he saw Shen Nanzhi use some unknown means to make the snake collapse on the ground and look at him coldly, it was obvious that he was her next target. Xiao Shihua could no longer sit still.

He quickly took a step back and ordered the maids: "What are you still standing there for! Hurry up and take her down!"

However, none of the maids moved. Even the two maids standing closest to him, like the snake, their legs went weak and they fell directly to the ground.

It was at this time that Xiao Shihua discovered that something was wrong with his body.

I just can't muster any strength at all.

This is the reaction caused by taking drugs such as Softening Powder.

There is some softening powder in this room, but they have all taken the antidote in advance, so there is no way they can be in any danger.

At that time, when Xiao Shihua met the cold eyes of Shen Nanzhi not far away, he finally panicked.

"What have you done?"

He no longer had any of the joking and calmness he had just shown, and in panic he called out to the door, "Someone! Someone come quickly!"

However, there was no movement outside.

Shen Nanzhi's lips slightly raised, revealing a faint smile: "I advise the Second Prince not to waste his energy. There has been no response for half a day. Doesn't this explain the problem?"

Xiao Shihua said in disbelief: "Impossible! I clearly sent people to keep an eye on the Zhenguo Mansion, and also set up assassins and traps along the way. Even the people outside this teahouse are all my people. There is no way they can come to save you!"

Hearing this, Shen Nanzhi smiled slightly: "You are right, but who said that the reinforcements I called were from my Zhenguogong Mansion? I never said that I was waiting for my own secret guards."

Hearing this, Xiao Shihua had no idea what he was thinking about, and all the color on his face drained away.

He felt dizzy and his limbs were weak. He had to rely on the windowsill for support to keep himself from falling to the ground.

But the same cannot be said for the maids and guards in the house.

Even though Shen Nanzhi was close at hand, these people didn't even have the strength to raise their swords.

Moreover, Xiao Shihua also discovered that people with the best kung fu and higher internal strength would be more affected.

He stepped back in a hurry and looked at Shen Nanzhi in disbelief: "When did you poison me?"

Hearing this, Shen Nanzhi tilted his head and smiled: "Guess."
