Chapter 177 Jade Tablet
After the drug addicts were dispersed, the private prison was in a terrible state. The corpses all over the floor made people feel physically uncomfortable. The two men finally stole the key and escaped.
"Run first. If that doesn't work, I'll take you back to Dachang."
Unexpectedly, they were stopped by other soldiers in a moment, and Shunyan came out again in an instant but was covered by Ran Qianxi. The two of them were surrounded.
"Who are you?"
Ran Qianxi retreated nervously, protecting a man behind her and holding a centipede between her chest.
At the critical moment, she took out the jade token!
The leader took a moment to identify him, then became flustered and was the first to kneel down.
"Third... Your Highness..."
Ran Qianxi looked at Si Kongqian, still wondering why this token had been with her all the time.
"Ahem, it's your Third Prince."
The prince's jade token was of great importance. The leader hesitated for a moment and led the two men into the main hall.
Upon learning the report from the guards, Prince Guang walked out despite his illness.
"Cough cough cough..."
His face was sallow and his eyes were lifeless, and it was obvious that he was on the verge of death.
Sikong Qian only took one look at him and knew that he was harmed by the backlash of the poisonous insect. It seemed that someone knew him and informed him after he went to the street. Only then did the soldiers come with the portrait.
Shi Wen had been ill for a long time, and Ran Qianxi was extremely beautiful, so the leaders of the officers and soldiers had the idea of getting him a happy marriage.
"I heard from the guards... ahem... you have my third brother's badge..."
Ran Qianxi glanced at him, and her sickly look made people frown.
"I have."
Shi Wen took a few steps towards her, and that face instantly amazed him...
"Where did you get the jade token?"
"Shi Huan gave it to me. If you don't believe me, you can go ask him."
Before Shi Wen could respond, Si Kongqian said something very precious that was hard to be understood by ordinary people.
"If the immortality Gu backfires, you can try the blood exchange technique, or you can put yourself in a desperate situation and then survive."
Shi Wen turned and looked at him, as if he had found a solution.
"Are you Si Kongqian, the descendant of Gu Zu Si Kongjian?"
"Sikong Jian is my grandfather."
Shi Wen anxiously took a few steps towards him, his eager eyes filled with curiosity to the point of being frightening.
"Could you please tell me in more detail how to exchange blood and how to survive from death?"
"The art of blood exchange, Han Wushengxian has his own magic method. If it succeeds, it will be like putting someone to death and then giving them life. If it fails, it will be like putting someone to death and then giving them life."
Ran Qianxi looked at him with a melancholy and confused expression, as if she couldn't understand what anyone was saying.
"Then do you know where Han Wushengxian lives?"
"Penglai, you have to find it yourself."
As he finished speaking, Shi Huan came over with his hands behind his back. The moment he saw Ran Qianxi, he instantly felt a surge of excitement.
"Miss Ran Er?"
Ran Qianxi walked over with a smile, and Shi Huan stared at her in disbelief for a long time.
"It's really you? How do you know my identity?"
Ran Qianxi's brain raced for a long time before she thought of a good place to put the blame.
"King Jibei has many eyes and ears, he told me a long time ago."
"So that's how it is. When I heard that you were leaving the Imperial City, I returned early. I was worried that we would never meet again in this life, but I never thought that fate would allow me to miss you in the end."
Shi Zhun was generous in his love, and Si Kongqian's face suddenly became as ugly as leftover food.
"Haha, yes, yes..."
Faced with Shi Huan's enthusiasm and the unprecedented coldness beside him, Ran Qianxi suddenly felt ashamed and felt like sitting on pins and needles.
Shi Huan glanced at Si Kongqian standing beside him and had already guessed the relationship between the two.
"Where did you get the jade token?"
Ran Qianxi was in a panic and countless lies flashed through her mind, but none of them were convincing.
"Yes... you gave it to me, have you forgotten? Last time in the Moon Catching Tower, you were drunk and insisted on showing your loyalty, uh... holding my hand, and then a jade token came in... yeah."
Shi Huan didn't remember ever drinking too much in Buyue Tower. Because of his special identity, he always stayed sober.
"Drunk?"
"Ah, yes!"
Ran Qianxi suddenly stood up and pulled him into her arms, looking like she was coaxing a woman.
"You held me in bed like this, and then you insisted on telling me a secret, so I took out the token."
Si Kong Qian listened to the scandal between the two and his brows were furrowed deeper than the Yellow River.
Shi Huan thought about it for a moment, but still couldn't remember.
"Why did I drink so much?"
This plan was obviously useless. Ran Qianxi let go of her hand awkwardly after hearing it, but after a moment she came up with another plan.
"Uh... I remembered it wrongly. You gave it to me out of pleasure when you were deeply in love with me."
Shi Huan smiled impatiently. He definitely had never given her this badge.
"So that's how it is. Just help Xier."
"Haha, of course I can help."
Although Shi Huan looked at her with a smile, doubts had already surged into his mind.
"What does Xier want me to do?"
"This Guang Wang arrested me without any reason. When I got scared, I thought of you."
Shi Huan glanced at the sick Shi Wen and naturally thought of the rumor that Prince Guang was getting married to bring good luck.
"Brother Wang, are you still not well?"
"Cough cough."
Shi Wen coughed a few times with difficulty.
"A body of rottenness is hard to heal from a serious illness."
"Then, brother Wang, have you found a magic method?"
Shi Wen walked weakly to the main seat and sat down.
"It is Sikong Gu Sheng who has offered a brilliant plan, which may be able to save me from my ninth transformation illness."
Si Kongqian kept staring at Shi Huan's right hand, because he was holding Ran Qianxi's hand very closely.
"I think this person is Sikong Gu Sheng."
Hearing Shi Huan's greeting, he still didn't raise his eyes, leaning back in his chair and fiddling with the poisonous centipede as if he didn't see anything.
"Well, you're polite."
Shi Huan's eyes darkened. The so-called Gu Saint in front of him did not know how to respect others.
"I wonder what method the Gu Sage suggested?"
Shi Huan had already launched the attack, but Si Kong Qian was still fiddling with the poisonous scorpion fearlessly, his tone full of arrogance.
"It's not you who's treating me, so what's the point of knowing it?"
Shi Huan took a step forward, and Ran Qianxi instantly stood between the two of them. Si Kong Qian saw the slender waist in front of him and put his arms around her.
"Let him come. If I die, his brother will also die."
Ran Qianxi smiled awkwardly at Shi Huan, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't break free from Si Kong Qian's arms.
"Haha... Yunshuang, don't be angry. He has been in the mountains for too long and doesn't understand the ways of the world..."
Shi Huan looked at her and couldn't help but smile.
"It doesn't matter. Since Xi'er pleads for him, I won't take it to heart."
"Yes, yes, yes. If nothing else, we'll leave first. See you later."
Ran Qianxi patted Sikong's thigh to signal her, and after being reminded, she slowly let go of her hand. Unexpectedly, as soon as the two stood up, Shi Huan grabbed her wrist again.
"Are you with him?"
"what?"
Ran Qianxi's face was full of confusion, Si Kongqian smiled smugly and calmly pulled her back into his arms.
"We were together last night."
Ran Qianxi was startled and immediately turned back to remind him, but was met with Si Kongqian's face full of reluctance.
Ran Qianxi: "Hahaha... just friends... just friends"
After hearing her denial, Yun Shuang pulled her to his side again and looked at Si Kong Qian with eagle-like eyes.
"Then why not ask my friend to go back first, and Xier can stay in my palace."
Shi Zhun and Tan Qianhuan have a close connection. If she lives in Nanyue Palace, she will undoubtedly ask someone to tell Tan Qianhuan her whereabouts.
While she was struggling, she saw Si Kong Qian leaving in dissatisfaction. Ran Qianxi hurriedly pushed Shi Huan away and followed him.
"I still have things to do, so I'll stay with you longer when I have time."
Looking at Ran Qianxi's back as she left him, Shi Huan looked at her absent-mindedly. She felt heartbroken again and again because of those so-called friends who abandoned her.
Hearing footsteps behind him, Si Kongqian immediately stopped and waited.
"Haha, let's go, we said we wanted to eat Cross-Bridge Rice Noodles."
Si Kongqian smiled and took Ran Qianxi's hand in front of Shi Huan.
The two walked out of the palace, but Ran Qianxi kept looking back inside the palace. After all, compared with Yun Shuang and the completely unfamiliar Si Kong Qian, Shi Zhun made her feel more familiar and safe.
