"Wrong, Long Chenyi's life and death has nothing to do with me. Naturally, I won't kill you because of him!" Sima Heng sneered and approached him step by step. "Now, do you know if I have the ability to kill you!!?"
"Since it has nothing to do with Long Chen, then I have no grudges against you, so why do you have to push me so hard and think that I am Prince Hexuan!!?"
The man in black asked while stalling for time.
Sima Heng's narrow phoenix eyes narrowed, and he used his inner strength to take action quickly. A strong palm wind and suction force immediately sucked the man in black into his hand, strangled his neck, and said in a cold voice: "Because, you indirectly hurt a lot of people."
The person who deserves to be harmed, so you must die——!!”
The man in black's neck tightened, and there was a splitting pain in his throat. He could not even speak, let alone wait for an opportunity to jump off a cliff to escape.
At this time, Lan Yi and Lu Yi, who came after hearing the sound, were stunned when they saw Sima Heng on the edge of the cliff.
But before the two of them had time to think deeply about why Sima Heng was on the mountain, their eyes fell on the man in black held in Sima Heng's hand.
The two quickly ran to Sima Heng, drew out their swords and put them on the neck of the man in black.
Lan Yi's face was full of anger, and he swung his sword to cut off one of the arms of the man in black, and said angrily: "You know how to hide, look at you still hiding in there now!!"
"ah--"
A dull wailing sounded, and the man in black was covered in cold sweat. The severe pain in his internal organs had made him break out in cold sweat. He could no longer bear the pain of a broken arm, and the pain of cutting flesh and bones made his face look hideous.
The person's facial features are almost twisted into a ball, distorted and ugly.
"Thank you, Pavilion Master, for catching the assassin for us," Lu Yi gave Sima Heng a rare expression that was not ugly.
Because Zi Yi was killed by Sima Heng himself, the three of them had always regarded Sima Heng as his enemy. If Master Xue had not wanted anyone to hurt Sima Heng, they would have fought tooth and nail with Sima Heng to avenge Zi Yi.
Sima Heng didn't look at Lan Yi and Lu Yi. He reached out and pulled off the black scarf on the face of the man in black. His narrow phoenix eyes revealed a dangerous aura and said, "You really are not him!!"
Lan Yi and Lu Yi looked at each other, wondering what Sima Heng meant by his words, but at the moment, catching the man in black was their first priority. After thanking Sima Heng, the two of them held the man in black and the man who came.
The officers and soldiers took the man in black into custody together.
Sima Heng dropped the black scarf in his hand and glanced coldly at the back of the man in black. This time, Long Chen personally took action. He originally wanted to lure the snake out of the hole, but he failed to lure the man out!
Haha, it seems that he is the only one who can lure that person out now!!
next day
As soon as the sky turned white, Mu Tianxue woke up and got up from the bed. Qingzhu entered the room with washing water. When he saw her waking up, he quickly put the water down, stepped forward to help her sit down, and said with concern: "
What do you think, empress? Is your health feeling better?"
"How long have I been asleep? Why didn't you wake me up? Has the emperor's medicine been taken out?"
She hurriedly got off the bed, took some clothes and put them on, without even bothering to wash herself, she hurried to the bedroom.
"Mother, please slow down, the emperor's medicine is brewing-"
Seeing Mu Tianxue rushing towards the dormitory impatiently, Qingzhu followed after him with the washing water in hand.
Mu Tianxue felt uneasy and didn't know how long she had slept. Based on her current physical condition, she could easily fall asleep for three days and three nights.
Therefore, she did not dare to sleep deeply in the past few days, for fear of falling asleep and delaying Long Chenyi's detoxification.
But when she woke up, she felt that her body had strength and her mind was not as dizzy as the previous few days.
She seemed to have slept for a long time, and when she thought about how many days and nights she might have slept, she felt angry and couldn't wait to rush to Long Chenyi's side.
Seeing that Long Chenyi's face was much better than before, with a bit of blood, she finally let go of her hanging heart.
Qingzhu followed closely behind him into the bedroom, squeezed out the water from the wet handkerchief and handed it to Mu Tianxue, comforting him: "Don't worry, the emperor will wake up soon.
Yumian came early to check the emperor's pulse for treatment, and also took out the poisonous insects from the emperor's body. I wanted to call the empress, but it was obvious that the empress was weak and could hardly rest, so I took it upon myself to not wake the empress, and asked the empress to punish her."
Qingzhu said and knelt on the ground, lowering his eyebrows and lowering his head, as if he had done something wrong and was waiting for punishment.
"That's all, that's all, you're doing it for my own good, get up!" Knowing that Qingzhu was worried about her body, Mu Tianxue couldn't bear to punish her, so she said, "Jade face has taken out the poisonous insects from the emperor's body?"
As she asked, she untied Long Chenyi's clothes. The skin on his body was intact, with no wounds and no red blood cells. Where did Jade Face take out the Gu worms?
"Yes, the slave attacked Yumian, and the Gu was taken out from the palm of the Emperor's hand!!"
When Qingzhu thought of the Gu worms he took out from Long Chenyi's palm, he couldn't help but feel a chill. It was really scary. There were dozens of worms!!
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she might never have known about the existence of such terrible bugs as Gu worms.
Hearing this, Mu Tianxue opened the quilt and looked at Long Chenyi's palm. Sure enough, his palm was wrapped with thick gauze.
No wonder Long Chenyi's face returned to color. Thinking about it, the poison in his body has been almost eliminated.
"The Queen, the three guards have come to see you!" At this time, Hongshao entered the inner hall to report.
Mu Tianxue's eyes turned cold, and she stood up and walked to the table to wash herself briefly before going to the inner hall.
When Lan Yi and the others saw Mu Tianxue coming out, they immediately knelt down in respect and said, "See, Master Xue, the man in black has been captured and is now being held on the ninth floor of the sky prison. I am here to plead guilty."
Mu Tianxue's face seemed to be covered with ice, her cold eyes stared at the three people kneeling on the ground, and in a voice without warmth, she said: "Your sins will be punished naturally, take me to the heavenly prison first!!"
After saying this, she walked out of the inner hall, and Lan Yi and the other two hurriedly got up and followed her closely.
On the ninth floor of the prison, a man in black was tied tightly to a pillar. His face was pale, his features were twisted, and he was covered in blood.
The blood from the severed arm soaked his clothes and flowed along the corners of his clothes to the ground, forming a pool of blood.
Mu Tianxue went straight to the cell, and saw the man in black with his head lowered and his face full of pain. She walked up to the man in black with a dagger, raised his chin with the dagger, and looked at his face with pain with cold eyes.
The man in black said coldly: "It's been a long time, we meet again!!"
"Hmph! If you want to kill or behead me, please obey me - ah -!!" Before the man in black could finish his words, he raised his head and howled heart-breakingly.
The dagger in Mu Tianxue's hand was inserted into the thigh of the man in black, and he sneered: "Wouldn't it be easier for you to kill you? You must not have seen with your own eyes the flesh on your body being cut off one by one, but you are still alive and well.
Yes, you will witness it soon."
"Hmph! How can I let you decide my life and death?" The man in black looked at Mu Tianxue with pain on his face. He knew that he would definitely die. If he could complete the task assigned by his master, his death would be considered worthy of death.
So far, half of his life and death are in his own hands. He would rather bite the poison and kill himself than die of torture!!
