Tyrant's First Favorite Concubine

Chapter 164 The Secret of Poisoning

Yu Li in the rain ran all the way like that, a road that she just passed by in a carriage in the afternoon, and now she is walking again in the heavy rain.

The Prince's Mansion in the rain looks so hazy and unreal.

"Oriental Shangyu—" she stood in the rain and shouted loudly, but her voice was quickly drowned out by the sound of the rain, and the two vermilion doors remained silent.

She was already drenched, and when she walked up the steps, every step was a wet footprint.She desperately slapped the two brass knockers on the gate, calling Dongfang Shangyu's name as she slapped.

At this time, the door was opened, and an old concierge walked out. He pointed at Yu Li with a look of horror and said, "You don't want to die, how dare you call His Highness the Crown Prince's name directly..."

"Uncle Sun, what's going on, it's so late, and..." Duan Cunfeng walked over from a distance, and when he saw Yu Li who was soaking wet, he was really shocked, and hurriedly said: "Miss Gu, you..."

Yu Li walked in, she was already familiar with the terrain of this mansion today, she ignored Duan Cunfeng's shout behind her, and ran all the way to Dongfang Shangyu's bedroom.

"Pa—" the door was pushed open, and in the dim light, Dongfang Shangyu was only wearing a snow-white coat, sitting on the edge of the bed.

The noise in the mansion had woken him up, and he naturally knew why Yu Li came.It's just that what he didn't expect was that Yu Li looked so desperate and frail at this moment.

Her light blue dress has been soaked by the rain, and her long hair is restlessly sticking to her face, neck, and shoulders... Her shoes and socks are covered with muddy water, and the exquisite embroidery has been seen. out of shape...

She is like an elf who suddenly broke into the Holy Land, which makes people feel surprised, pitiful, and distressed, but she herself is full of disappointment, anger, and even resentment...

"His Royal Highness..." Duan Cunfeng had already run over, feeling a little guilty about his dereliction of duty.

Dongfang Shangyu waved his hand to signal him to back down, and Duan Cunfeng left knowingly.

Afterwards, Dongfang Shangyu picked up a clean bath towel and walked to Yu Li's side, intending to wipe off the water droplets on her face and body.

Yu Li pushed his hand away resistingly, "Why do you want to do this?"

Dongfang Shangyu smiled and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Don't you know that the emperor gave us a marriage just this morning?" Yu Li didn't understand why he was so relaxed, as if nothing had happened, she stared at him closely and asked: "Why didn't you tell me? Why bother asking me if I would?"

Dongfang Shangyu pulled her body into his arms, ignored her struggle, and gently wiped the water stains on her head.

Yu Li shouted angrily: "Let me go! Let go!"

Dongfang Shangyu used even more force. He was always stubborn, and he couldn't easily give up on the things he decided on.He didn't let her go until he wiped her clean, and said as if nothing happened, "So, the emperor had already issued an order in the early court?"

"Do you still want to pretend?" Yu Li glared at him.

Dongfang Shangyu shrugged and said: "You know, I seldom go to court, but I only told my mother about this yesterday, and today I announced it in the court hall, it seems that this woman is really not to be underestimated. "

"So, is that what you mean?" Yu Li finally couldn't bear the indignation in her heart, she said without hesitation: "I won't marry you!"

When Dongfang Shangyu heard the words, he put away his previous relaxed smile, remained silent for a long time, and frowned and said: "If you have a reason to persuade me, I can go and ask Father to take back his will."

Yu Li was startled, why?Her only reason is that the person she loves is Gu Cenya.But this reason is so sad, this man named Gu Cen Ya, at some point, has become her elder brother, the man she can't love the most in this world, and this man, just now, refused Take her away and do your will.

"Is there no reason?" Dongfang Shangyu's tone was calm and unwavering, like a lake in winter, "You have no reason, but I have countless reasons to persuade you to marry me!"

Yu Li looked at him silently, she knew what he said was true, he could always see through her heart, and he could always know everything.

Dongfang Shangyu sighed secretly, and said: "Now you are not happy in the general's mansion, then you don't have what you want, do you?"

Yu Li was silent and did not answer.

Dongfang Shangyu said again: "Your identity is Miss Gu, even without me, there would still be other people, such as Xu Lin'an..."

"Enough!" Yu Li yelled, she couldn't listen anymore, just because every word Dongfang Shangyu said hit her nail.She smiled bitterly: "Your Highness, I can only obey, right?"

Dongfang Shangyu's eyes darkened. Seeing her so disheartened, he felt uncomfortable for a while, but he still said calmly: "It's not obedience, but a deal."

"Deal?" Yu Li couldn't help being shocked when he heard this.

Dongfang Shangyu paused, and said: "You will be my princess, and I will guarantee you a free life, and I will not force you to do things you don't want."

"That being the case..." Yu Li's eyes flashed doubts, "Why do you want to marry me, a princess in name only?"

Dongfang Shangyu smiled lightly, and the corners of his pretty lips curled up, "Because I have to find a princess before Jin and the princess get married."

Yu Li looked at him in surprise, his smile was not half joyful, on the contrary, it seemed to be laughing at himself.

At this moment, Dongfang Shangyu's expression suddenly changed, his face was pale, and beads of sweat gushed out of his forehead.Then, like a convulsion, he fell to the ground with a thud.

Yu Li was shocked, and then ran to him, and asked in surprise, "What's wrong with you?"

His handsome face instantly distorted, and his whole body curled up tightly as if uncontrollable. He wanted to shout something, but he didn't make a sound.

Yu Li shouted: "Cunfeng!"

Duan Cunfeng came over upon hearing the sound, and when he saw the situation inside the house, he turned pale with shock, and quickly helped Dongfang Shangyu onto the bed.

"What, do you need to use the antidote again?" Duan Cunfeng asked worriedly.

Who knows, Dongfang Shangyu took a hard look at Yu Li, and said to Duan Cunfeng: "Take her away, don't...she...see..."

He hoped that he would be strong, indestructible, reliable, and perfect in her eyes. If he could choose, no matter how much he paid, he would not want to present himself in front of her like this.

Duan Cunfeng sighed bitterly, turned to Yu Li and said, "Miss Gu, let's go back first, my prince is not feeling well today."

Yu Li hesitated for a moment, but ignored Dongfang Shangyu's eyes of resistance, and stepped forward. She raised her hand to catch his pulse.

He twitched and dodged.

But she held his arm firmly, not letting him move.

"He was poisoned?" Yu Li turned his head and asked Duan Cunfeng, "This poison has been in the body for many years, why didn't you ask someone to treat it?"

Duan Cunfeng was surprised and sad at the same time. What surprised him was that Yu Li knew medical skills. What made him sad was that the poison in Dongfang Shangyu's body could not be cured, but could not be cured.

Duan Cunfeng thought for a while and said: "It takes a month to cure this poison, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has to go to Fengyi Palace to take the antidote in the middle of each month. When this medicinal material meets the medicinal material in the antidote, it will produce a greater toxin, and in severe cases, it may be fatal."

"Fengyi Palace?" Yu Li asked suspiciously, "Isn't that the queen's palace? Why..."

"Miss Gu, don't talk too much, walls have ears!" Duan Cunfeng stopped Yu Li from continuing.

Dongfang Shangyu's symptoms on the bed had improved slightly, but he was still pale and weak, and fell asleep drowsily.

Yu Li looked at the tortured face, and couldn't help but think of the time when she had the "Wuxin" Gu in the past. At that time, she also had to endure torture again and again, and she was panicked every day.

Is it the same for him?
