He Lianheng woke up faintly and looked at the familiar things in front of him. He felt that his mind was like a mess, and his throat felt dry and uncomfortable. He moved, trying to get up, but found that his chest was naked... The wound was bandaged with skillful techniques.
When Du Suxi saw him waking up, the big stone in her heart finally fell, but she pretended to look at him calmly and said.
"Are you awake?"
He Lianheng glanced at her and smiled. He wanted to retaliate and naturally woke up. Just as he was about to speak, he heard that his voice was unusually hoarse, sounding like a broken gong.
Du Suxi's face turned red when she heard this, and she felt a little guilty. She hurriedly poured a glass of water for He Lianheng and explained.
"You lost too much blood, so you fainted. If you can wake up now, you must be fine, right?"
If nothing happens, she should find a chance to leave.
As if he knew what Du Suxi was thinking, He Lianheng looked at Du Suxi steadily and asked.
"Are you planning to leave?"
Du Suxi raised her head in surprise and looked at He Lianheng, feeling even more guilty. Although she didn't say anything, everyone could still tell that this was acquiescence.
When He Lianheng looked at her like this, how could he not know what she was thinking? He raised his eyebrows. He asked confidently.
"Are you going to leave after you hurt me? Du Sha, you are a little too cruel."
He Lianheng looked at her steadily, and Du Suxi was stunned for a while, with a blush flashing on her face. He explained awkwardly.
"That was not what I meant.",
"Then what do you mean?"
He Lianheng asked directly, looking straight at Du Suxi with a pair of eyes full of resentment. Looking at such eyes, Du Suxi had a headache. Thinking of He Lianheng's kindness to her, he had to calm down. Angry, he opened his mouth to explain.
"You should know that it won't do you any good if I continue to stay here. If I'm discovered, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat and walk around. I don't want to hurt you."
This is indeed true.
"..." He Lianheng fell into rare silence, seeming to be thinking about something. Du Suxi looked at He Lianheng's appearance and smiled awkwardly.
"So it will be good for you if I leave here. I will leave as soon as it gets dark. Even if I am caught, I will never say that you saved me."
"Did you really go to the Imperial Study Room?" He Liankuang suddenly said, his face full of solemnity. Du Suxi was stunned for a moment, realized the seriousness of this situation, and hurriedly denied it.
"I just came to see Jingwei for some matters, and it definitely has nothing to do with the theft of the Imperial Study Room!"
Du Suxi did not say that she came with Shen Mu. Somehow, she had a hunch that maybe Shen Mu was really the thief who stole the imperial study. However, she had a suspicion in her mind, but it was impossible. He told He Lianheng that although he saved her life, he could not let her betray her friends for this.
He Lianheng looked at Du Suxi suspiciously for a long time, and finally believed Du Suxi's words, sighed, and spoke.
"If you go out now, you are throwing yourself into a trap. Here with me, I can at least guarantee your safety."
Du Suxi was startled, but she didn't expect He Lianheng to ask her to stay. The embarrassment on her face became even stronger. Thinking of what she had just done, she spoke with some embarrassment.
"Actually, actually, I still feel a little sorry for you... That, that, I did some things that I'm sorry for you..."
He Lianheng only thought that Du Suxi was talking about hurting him. He thought that Du Suxi still had some conscience, so he snorted coldly and waved his hands.
"Although your skills are good, don't forget where this place is. It's not easy to get out. I will find an opportunity to send you out personally. If you feel guilty, let me see your Moshang Xiangfang. I have made a lot of money, so you can give me half of it."
"You, you are talking like a lion!" Du Suxi's eyes widened in surprise. She never thought that Helian Kuang would suddenly propose this condition, which really shocked her. Gritting her teeth, Du Suxi calmed down her emotions, thinking about He Lianheng saving her in the end, and spoke.
"I'm just a small steward of Moshang Xiangfang. Even if I have some strength, I can't make the decision like this. Your Highness is very considerate of me."
He Lianheng looked at her very calmly and compromised easily. He nodded.
"Forget it, then you can just give me a few tens of thousands taels and treat it as money for my medical treatment."
Feel free to give away tens of thousands taels...
Du Suxi couldn't help but take a breath. This He Lianheng was indeed not a good person!
Du Suxi looked very confused.
He Lianheng only thought it was funny, and he raised his eyebrows and added as he deliberately teased her. "I'm talking about gold."
"..." Du Suxi was so surprised that she couldn't speak. Tens of thousands of taels of gold…
She, Mo Shang Xiangfang, can make a lot of money every day, but she also needs expenses. She has to spend money on various projects. It also costs money to cultivate a talent. After all, the little money she earns will be the most valuable talent. enough. Everyone in the world said that she was rich in Mo Shang Xiangfang, but they didn't know that she was just guarding the treasure mountain and could not move. Even taking out ten thousand taels is not that easy, let alone ten thousand taels of gold, which is almost the same as selling Mo Shang Xiangfang!
"Your Highness is too cruel. Even if I kill you, I won't be able to get back tens of thousands of taels of gold."
I thought He Lianheng would retreat in spite of the difficulty, but he didn't expect that He Lianheng frowned and looked at Du Suxi in surprise. Thin lips parted slightly.
"...Are you so worthless?"
"..." Du Suxi couldn't help but feel angry, but thinking that the person in front of her saved her after all, she couldn't help but force herself to hold back the tone and smiled.
"His Highness is really good at joking. If His Highness insists on doing this, then I will give it to you for a while, and I will do it with both hands."
"Okay." He Lianheng simply agreed.
Facing such a rogue He Lianheng, the guilt that originally surged in Du Suxi's heart suddenly dissipated without a trace. She took a long breath and was about to speak.
Suddenly there was a rustling sound under the bed.
"Who!" He Lianheng immediately leaned over, lifted the sheets, looked at the scenery under the bed, and took a deep breath. His eyes showed surprise. It wasn't that he was fussing, but the scene in front of him really surprised him.
Du Suxi stared blankly at He Lianheng, who was very weak just now, and was so agile now that she had discovered her secret before she even had time to remind her. Her eyes widened with surprise. With He Lianheng. Isn't this man very weak
"Get out of here!" He Lianheng snorted coldly and grabbed Du Suxi's dagger with one hand. Du Suxi did not stop him and He Lianheng still took it away.
He Lianheng closed his eyes and moved under the bed. Hearing the delicate exclamation, he snorted coldly without looking at the bottom of the bed, stood up and looked at Du Suxi angrily. His intuition told him that all of this seemed to be related to the woman in front of him!
Seeing He Lianheng's angry face, Du Suxi swallowed her saliva and spoke awkwardly.
"I, I wanted to tell you about this just now. I didn't expect, I didn't expect that you would notice it yourself. So, this is about the same."
Du Suxi said this with rare confidence. He Lianheng's face immediately darkened. Looking at Du Suxi, the veins on her forehead were beating. She was obviously angry, and her voice became condensed.
"So, is this really what you did? You are so brave!"
How dare he directly tie up his maid, take off her clothes and hide it under the bed, what do you think this place is!
Although He Lianheng acted in a free and uninhibited style, how could he tolerate Du Suxi's behavior that was almost a slap in the face? He almost felt itchy with hatred!
"If they hadn't suddenly barged in and yelled, I wouldn't have knocked them unconscious..."
Du Suxi explained awkwardly that for her behavior, she knew that her behavior was a bit unethical and she was sorry for He Lianheng. But at that time she was really forced by the situation. She was taking off He Lianheng's clothes to help clean his wounds. Unexpectedly, these two maids suddenly barged in and shouted. Du Suxi was afraid that the shouts would alert others, so in desperation, she had to put them two away. Knock them unconscious, strip them naked, tie them up with clothes and throw them under the bed.
He never thought that He Lianheng would discover it himself.
The nature of being caught by someone else and confessing on your own initiative are completely different.
The two maids had already crawled out in a hurry, their white bodies trembling, and they knelt in front of He Lianheng in a panic, already sobbing. He Lianheng hurriedly closed his eyes, gritted his teeth and said.
"You two, put your clothes on for me!"
There was another buzzing figure, and Du Suxi turned her head in acknowledgment and stopped looking.
The two maids, who were still trembling, saw He Lianheng closing his eyes. The other one turned his head. No one paid attention to them, and immediately stopped shaking. There was no longer any panic, and his eyes were full of expressions. A fierce look.
"Swipe!" With a sound, a maid suddenly stood up while the two of them were unprepared, snatched the dagger Du Suxi had placed aside, and fierceness flashed across her eyes quickly, and she turned toward Helian. Heng swooped away.
If this kill is successful,
Oh, I'm afraid He Lianheng is in trouble!
The dagger stabbed He Lianheng extremely sharply with the sound of piercing the air.
Suddenly, a pebble shot out from Du Suxi's hand and hit the maid's wrist accurately.
With a "bang", the maid who was supposed to succeed was hit by the small stone on the wrist. She felt that her meridians were shaken, and there was a numbness in her wrist. Her right hand no longer had any strength.
He Lianheng also realized something was wrong. He opened his eyes and looked at the maid standing in front of him. How could he not understand what was happening? His eyes were full of anger, and he kicked the maid in front of him to the ground. He stepped on the fallen dagger with one foot, made a clever move, kicked the dagger, caught it with one hand, and quickly pierced the chest of the other maid who was rushing toward him.
The maid screamed, with a look of unwillingness on her face, and stretched out her hand to rush towards He Lianheng's chest. Unexpectedly, there was a silver needle in the palm of her hand! The tip of the silver needle suddenly flashed with faint light, stimulating people's pupils.
"careful!"
Du Suxi looked panicked, looking at the silver needle that was about to pierce into He Lianheng's chest, she hurriedly shouted.
Everything happened in a flash of lightning. Du Suxi was too far away and was unable to stop her. She could only watch this scene helplessly, with her heart in her throat.
He Lianheng subconsciously raised his arm to block his chest, but it was too late to stop the maid's fierce attack. Silently, there was a slight numbing feeling on the arm, which quickly spread to the whole body.
Almost at the same time, He Lianheng used all his strength to kick the maid in the chest. This time, he almost used up all his strength. The maid was kicked up by him, and a very wide wave rippled directly in the air. Parabola, fell heavily to the ground. The maid immediately vomited a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground, apparently losing all her strength.
He Lianheng's aura suddenly became much weaker. Du Suxi had already walked to his side, frowning at He Lianheng's weak appearance. Regardless of the clothes He Lianheng put on just now, he started to tear them apart. Looking at He Lianheng's extremely red and swollen arms, a trace of panic flashed across his face.
"Your Highness, are you okay?"
Du Suxi lowered her head. I wanted to find the silver needle, but I couldn't find it. The silver needle seemed to have penetrated into the bone and disappeared without a trace.
how so? A trace of panic flashed in Du Suxi's eyes. Looking at He Lianheng's weak face, he knew that there was something strange about the needle. He immediately took his own dagger from He Lianheng's hand, placed it across the neck of the maid, and threatened in a cold voice.
"Where's the antidote?"
"There is no antidote!"
The maid answered decisively, with a trace of pride flashing in her eyes. She looked at He Lianheng's pale face and laughed out loud.
"It is a great honor for us to be able to allow His Highness the Third Prince to be buried with my two sisters."
"If you don't tell me, I will send you two to feed the dogs directly!" Du Suxi's eyes flashed with a hint of cruelty, although she didn't know what kind of poison He Lianheng was poisoned with. But judging from the faces of the two sisters, the poison was probably extraordinary. It is very possible that He Lianheng would really die under this poison, which would really outweigh the gain!
"So what if you kill me?"
The maid spit out a mouthful of blood, but she had a fearless look on her face. It seems that what she is facing is not death, but a kind of immortality in disguise!
"You!" Du Suxi didn't expect these two to be so stubborn. Just as he was about to threaten, He Lianheng stood up weakly, looked at them with stern eyes, gritted his teeth, and shouted sharply.
"Du Sha! Help me kill them both!"
As soon as he said these words, He Lianheng seemed to be unable to hold on any longer and fell on the chair. His brows were tightly wrinkled in pain. His long eyelashes reflected on his pale face, and there was something unexpected. Unexpectedly morbid beauty.
"He Lianheng!"
Du Suxi screamed. But she found that the woman under her suddenly stood up. Without thinking, she was vigilant as a killer in her previous life. She flipped her wrist and cut the slender neck neatly, and then she focused her eyes on the woman's palm.
At some point, there was another silver needle in the woman's hand, which shone brightly under the sunlight.
"You killed my sister!" The other maid who had been watching all this blankly looked at this scene with disbelief in her eyes. Looking at her sister's deathly appearance, she finally let out a cry Wail. He turned his eyes and stared at Du Suxi closely, then gritted his teeth and spoke.
"You killed my sister, I will fight you!"
The maid rushed up without any clues, and naturally fell asleep under Du Suxi's dagger...
