activa-t Chapter 339 Wasp
Chapter 339 Wasp
Xie Guimo was injured, and not only Shen Tang was worried, but also the princess.
The princess rushed over and just heard Xie Guimo say this. She immediately felt that her son deserved a beating. He was already injured, but he still took the opportunity to tease his own prince's wife. It would be wrong for her, his mother, to step forward, and it would be wrong to go back.
Forget it, let’s go back.
The princess turned and left.
When Ginkgo saw the princess coming, she was about to remind Shen Tang and Xie Guimo, but then she saw the princess leave.
Ginkgo asked, "Why did the princess leave?"
When Shen Tang heard this, her face turned red, and she was so angry that she reached out and pinched the flesh around Xie Guimo's waist.
But the flesh of a martial artist is really hard and cannot be twisted at all.
Xie Guimo's forehead trembled, "My husband is already injured, and you still use such cruel force."
"You asked for it!"
Shen Tang turned around and left angrily.
Xie Guimo followed behind him, "Okay, I'm not angry anymore."
Shen Tang was not angry. She was satisfied that Xie Guimo was fine. She didn't dare to think that anything might happen to Xie Guimo for saving Prince Yu. What should she do? Until today, she understood what Xie Guimo said when he hugged her at night when she fell into the water. He could not admit any possibility of losing her.
So does she.
After returning to the house, Shen Tang asked, "Who assassinated Prince Yu?"
In fact, there is no need to ask, the King of Qi is the most suspicious.
This incident did not happen in the previous life. At that time, the King of Qi was very powerful and the King of Yu was no match for him. The King of Qi had no need to assassinate the King of Yu.
But this life is different. The King of Qi is being oppressed by the King of Yu to the point of being unable to breathe and is about to lose his composure.
In addition, the prince of Changping Marquis cheated on the Prince of Qi, and a rift arose between the Prince of Qi and the Changping Marquisate. This was a rift that could not be repaired. The Prince of Qi no longer had the patience to slowly compete with the Prince of Yu. As long as the Prince of Yu died, the other princes would not be his match. Whoever dared to show up could be easily crushed to death by him.
Xie Guimo said, "The weapons and arrows used in the assassination bear the mark of Xiliang."
Xiliang had nothing better to do than to kill Prince Yu and let Prince Qi reap the benefits. It was good enough that it did not stir up trouble behind the scenes and let Prince Qi and Prince Yu fight to the death.
In the previous life, Xiliang attacked Da Qi, and the prince and Xie Guimo went to war one after another. It is unlikely that Xiliang and the King of Qi colluded with each other.
Assassinating Prince Yu is no small matter. Frame the blame on Xiliang. Once a war is provoked between the two countries, the prince and Xie Guimo and others will have to go to the battlefield.
The reason why Prince Yu was able to suppress Prince Qi was because he had Xie Guimo's support behind him. Prince Qi wanted to use the war to get rid of Xie Guimo and his men.
If Xie Guimo goes to the battlefield, his elder brother, Chu Yi and the others will definitely go too.
In order to seize the throne, he even started a war. Is such a person worthy of being a prince or an emperor?
Shen Tang was furious. There was a knock on the window. Ginkgo went to open it, then turned around and said, "Princess, Chen Qi was stung by a wasp. I want to ask if the medicine you sent to the prince is still available..."
Shen Tang said, "There's still a little left, give it to him."
Ginkgo hurried to get the medicine.
Shen Tang looked at Xie Guimo and asked, "Did the hornet's nest in the hunting ground fall down?"
It turns out that he didn’t just send the medicine casually.
Xie Guimo said, "I shot it down."
Shen Tang, "..."
Thinking about how he asked Chen Shan to deliver the medicine, and how he cursed the person who had destroyed the hornet's nest in his previous life for being stupid, Shen Tang's mouth twitched.
Shen Tang looked at Xie Guimo, "Why did you destroy the hornet's nest?"
Although wasps are not good things.
But it was nestling peacefully in the tree and hadn't caused any trouble for him, so why should he knock it down?
Seeing through Shen Tang's thoughts, Xie Guimo said helplessly, "Why would I stir up a hornet's nest for no reason? I had no choice but to do this today to save my life."
Shen Tang, “…???”
Shen Tang looked at Xie Guimo blankly.
Xie Guimo wanted to hold Shen Tang in his arms and talk, but his arms hurt when he moved, so he had to give up.
He said, "That bottle of medicine of yours saved Prince Yu's life."
Hunting, to see who catches more prey.
After entering the hunting ground, everyone dispersed. Xie Guimo and the others were not with Prince Yu, but they were nearby.
Prince Yu chased a deer deep into the hunting grounds, and assassins surrounded him. Hearing the fight, he and Chu Yi and others went to rescue Prince Yu.
The assassin came prepared, not only setting traps but also using cartilage powder.
When they arrived, only one of Prince Yu's guards was still alive. Prince Yu had been poisoned by cartilage powder and had difficulty even standing.
Prince Yu could not avoid the assassin's hidden arrows. Xie Guimo and Chu Yi shot down the assassin's arrows, but one of them could not be avoided and pierced his arm.
There was a lot of cartilage powder in that area, and when it was blown by the wind, he and Chu Yi and the others inevitably inhaled it. Their physical strength gradually weakened, and the situation was not good.
As they were protecting Prince Yu as he escaped, they happened to see a hornet's nest on a tree. In desperation, he had no choice but to knock it down.
When they were hunting, they applied the insect repellent powder that Shen Tang sent them. Chu Yi and the others even fought over it to apply more.
The hornets fell to the ground and swarmed out of the nest, stinging anyone they saw.
They applied insect repellent powder, and only Xiao Xun was stung once, and Chu Yi was stung twice. The assassins were in a terrible situation and could not take care of themselves, so naturally they could not chase them anymore. When Xiao Huan and Young Master Yun from the Right Prime Minister's Mansion arrived, the assassins knew that they could not kill Prince Yu, so they quickly retreated.
If the hornet hadn't held out for a while until Xiao Huan arrived, the consequences would have been disastrous.
Shen Tang hadn't expected a hornet's nest to be used in this way. She asked, "Where's the emperor? Was he stung?"
Xie Guimo looked at Shen Tang's shining eyes and pinched his nose. "Why do you sound like you really want the emperor to be stung?"
Shen Tang, "..."
Did she show it so obviously?
Who made the emperor dote on Concubine Ye so much?
The favored Concubine Ye is domineering and ambitious, so she deserves to be punished by the emperor.
But no one dared to do anything to the emperor, but it was different for hornets.
In the eyes of wasps, everyone is equal.
But he couldn't admit it even in front of Xie Guimo. Shen Tang blinked and said, "No, I'm just concerned about the emperor."
Is there any? Can’t he see it?
If the emperor knew how much his daughter-in-law cared about him, he would have to reward him with dozens of lashes.
Xie Guimo said, "The emperor was stung several times and knew it was me who knocked down the hornet's nest. My merits and demerits cancel each other out, so my reward is gone."
Shen Tang, "..."
Couldn't help it.
Shen Tang's lips curved into a brilliant arc.
When Shen Tang found out that the emperor was not only stung on the forehead by a wasp, but also on the buttocks, and was stung twice, he couldn't even ride a horse and could only ride the imperial sedan chair back to the palace. He was so embarrassed that he almost had a miscarriage.
My butt was stung, and it hurts when I sit on anything.
If the position was not such a disgrace to the emperor, Xie Guimo saved Prince Yu's life, which was such a great contribution, would the emperor allow his merits and demerits to be offset and not reward him?
This hunt yielded more bags than game.
Returned in disastrous defeat.
Shen Tang didn't know that Prince Yu was already thinking about how to worship her.
Don't offer it as a sacrifice.
He felt uneasy.
