Shu Nuan and Xuan Jiu were separated. Shu Nuan didn't know where Xuan Jiu was taken by them, but they could feel that the situation was serious. If they didn't investigate clearly, they would not let themselves and Xuan Jiu go.
Shu Nuan was kept in an iron cage for three whole days. The snow kept falling. She huddled in the corner of the iron cage, hugged herself tightly, and wrapped herself tightly in her cloak. There was a thick layer of snow on her cap. Her cheeks were even redder from the cold, her cheeks were blown red by the cold wind, and her eyelashes were covered with a thin layer of frost, as if snowflakes would fall down if she blinked her eyelashes.
When she got the only bowl of rice every day, she would silently eat every drop.
She was holding on to hope at that time, thinking that as long as she could wait until Sheng Qianmo woke up, he would let her out and listen to her explanation.
She had heard the sarcastic remarks from these soldiers in the past few days, and she probably knew what was going on.
Sheng Qianmo was suddenly poisoned on the way to Changsheng Ridge, and the poison was found in her luggage. What's more, her meeting with Xuan Jiu was caught on the spot by Ji Xili and the others, and they suspected her. There is nothing wrong with that.
But…
She has never harmed Uncle Sheng.
Shu Nuan froze in the iron cage for three days and three nights. Before Sheng Qianmo could rescue her, she fell ill from the cold. After all, she was young and her resistance was much worse than those in the army, not to mention... I froze in the snow for several days.
When she had a bad cough, she couldn't even breathe. When the soldier came to bring her food, he said sarcastically, "Your accomplice from the Southern Dynasty has a very tight mouth. He has been tortured for several days and still refuses to kill me. I'm sorry." Let’s see if you can still be so strict when it’s your turn!”
Shu Nuan covered her mouth and coughed until her throat became hoarse. After hearing the soldier's words, her little red hands holding her rice bowl were shaking. She slowly raised her red eyes, grabbed the side of the iron cage, and shouted hoarsely. : "I want to see General Ning!"
"You're dreaming! Just wait until King Sheng wakes up and execute you!" No one in the entire military camp would have a good look at Shu Nuan. Betrayal is a taboo in the army, and they all believed that Shu Nuan had betrayed her. King Sheng was killed, and his life and death were still uncertain.

"It is a kind of poisonous insect - the five-clawed insect cultivated by the dark sect of the Southern Dynasties. This poisonous insect will only attack people with male aura who are close to them. If the poisoned person cannot find the antidote within five days, I am afraid that he will be poisoned by this drama. The poison eats away at the whole body and rots until death.”
After several days of investigation, the military doctor found out what kind of poison it was, but the test would be whether the antidote could be found in just two days.
Ji Xili was silent for a moment and then said, "I'll go find Shu Nuan and ask him clearly."
After saying that, without waiting for their answer, he turned around and left.
Ning Chengyuan frowned and thought for a while, and decided that this matter could not be delayed, so he divided the work and went to find Xuan Jiu.
However, what he didn't expect was that these people would torture Xuan Jiu severely. When he passed by, the young boy with good skin and tender flesh had been whipped all over his body. He was also tied under a tree and covered with frost and snow. He was stained with blood, his hair was hanging messily, and the bell hanging around his neck was stained with frost and snow, and he looked like he was dying.
Ning Chengyuan immediately yelled at the guard and ordered: "Hurry up and untie me!"
With Xuan Jiu's current appearance, he couldn't escape even if he wanted to, so the people below didn't say anything.
