Chapter 164 Insider
"Madam, I really don't know what you are talking about. This is clearly lilac, how can it be a deciduous flower?" Xiangyu knelt down and cried, "I am innocent, please look carefully."
Cong Fangzhi stepped forward and said to Shang Ruoyi, "Sister-in-law, is there any misunderstanding here? How could Xiangyu poison you?"
"Yes, there must be a misunderstanding. Xiangyu has been serving in Fangzhi's room. How could he have the time to poison her?" Lin said softly.
Xiangyu knelt on the ground and cried, "Madam, I was really wronged!"
Shang Ruoyi curled her lips slightly and nodded: "Maybe I'm overthinking it."
Her words made Xiangyu feel relieved a little, and at this moment, a silver needle flew towards her with a sound of breaking through the air.
Reacting subconsciously, she turned her body and dodged.
Her movements were impossible to achieve unless one practiced martial arts for many years.
"Your abilities are untraceable unless you show them off!"
Shang Ruoyi's words made Xiangyu's face change suddenly.
Cong Fangzhi and Lin didn't expect that they were taught a lesson just after they had just defended her.
"you!"
Xiangyu knew that he was exposed and didn't plan to pretend anymore.
"I didn't expect that you would find out." Xiangyu raised his head and looked at Shang Ruoyi coldly: "You are really hard to deal with."
"I was negligent that you were able to hide here for so long." Shang Ruoyi looked coldly: "Who are you? What is your purpose in coming here?"
Xiangyu didn't say anything, her eyes fell on Cong Fangzhi not far away. The next moment, her figure suddenly ran towards Cong Fangzhi. Just when her hand was about to pinch Cong Fangzhi's neck, her body suddenly lost strength and she fell to the ground.
She looked at the bruises on the back of her hand, feeling unwilling.
She never expected that Shang Ruoyi would doubt her and be injured by the silver needle she shot. The silver needle was coated with poison, probably a muscle softening powder or something like that. She couldn't even lift a muscle at this moment.
Xiangyu was half-kneeling on the ground, his body shaky and unable to support himself.
"Tell me now!" Shang Ruoyi said coldly, "Tell me who you are and who is behind you?"
"Oh, you want me to betray my master? It's impossible. Even if I die, I will never betray you!" She looked at Shang Ruoyi coldly, then shifted her gaze to the people in Dingguo Palace. Suddenly, a trace of black blood flowed out of her mouth: "I curse you, curse all of you!" After she finished speaking, her body fell down, her eyes wide open, and she died with her eyes open.
There is a deadly poison hidden in her teeth. People like her are all deadly.
Shang Ruoyi looked at Xiangyu's body, thoughtful.
Cong Fangzhi sat in a chair, gasping for breath. She was really frightened by the scene just now.
I really couldn't imagine that Xiangyu, who had always been serving me, was actually a spy!
And just now, he was just a little bit away from falling into her hands.
It must be aimed at their Cong family, it must be!
Thinking of this, she felt a sharp pain in her stomach.
At this moment, she felt a pain on the skin of her hand. She came to her senses and found that Shang Ruoyi was holding a silver needle and piercing her body.
"Relax." Shang Ruoyi said in a deep voice: "Don't let your mind wander. Worrying too much is not good for you and the baby in your belly."
Cong Fangzhi recovered and her pupils gradually focused: "Sister-in-law."
"Don't worry about anything. I'm here for you. Just take care of yourself and give birth to the baby." Shang Ruoyi put away the silver needle, and Cong Fangzhi felt the pain in her stomach slowly disappear.
She looked at Shang Ruoyi for a while, and her eyes gradually became firm.
Shang Ruoyi walked to Qin's bedside, fed her the spiritual spring water, and used silver needles to prick several major acupuncture points on her body to protect her heart meridian. She then took out some silver needles as fine as cow hair and pricked them into her arms. Everyone looked at the densely packed silver needles and couldn't help but feel a chill down their spines.
He Yunyi shed tears silently at the side: "If I knew the person behind Xiangyu, I would never let him go even if he was at the ends of the earth!"
At this time, Ling Feng was drinking tea in the courtyard. An old man came over and whispered, "Xiang Yu was exposed and committed suicide."
Ling Feng nodded and smiled: "Did Shang Ruoyi find it?"
"Yes, it's her."
"Haha, just as I expected, she is indeed very smart." Ling Feng put down the teacup, and raised the corners of his lips slightly: "What an interesting woman."
“Young Master, Shang Ruoyi has ruined our plans time and again, but you still want to keep her?” The old man said in a deep voice, “I know you are concerned about her kindness in saving Miss Ke’er, but even without her, Miss Ke’er would not be in any danger, right?”
If Shang Ruoyi were here, she would definitely recognize this person's identity.
It was the owner of Shan Hengtianyun Casino: Qian Jinnian.
"I kept her, and it has nothing to do with Ke'er."
"Then why is the young master..."
Before he could finish, Ling Feng interrupted him: "You don't have to worry about this matter anymore. Tell my brother to cause more trouble for He Jingheng's people in the Western Regions."
"Yes." After hearing him say this, Qian Jinnian didn't dare to say anything more. The young master had the same temperament as the former head of the family. Once he made a decision, he would not change it easily.
However, although he had only a few brief contacts with Shang Ruoyi, he could feel that this woman was extremely cunning and intelligent. The young master was reluctant to take action against her. Could it be that he had some inappropriate thoughts in his mind?
Thinking of this, Qian Jinnian frowned even deeper.
Thinking of Shang Ruoyi's identity and their feud with the Dingguo Palace, he barely suppressed the anger in his heart. If the young master was bewitched by Shang Ruoyi, he would kill her even if he risked being charged with disobeying his master.
Shang Ruoyi was still detoxifying Qin at this time. She cut a cut on Qin's fingertip, and thick black blood slowly flowed out.
Only when the black blood turned bright red did Shang Ruoyi remove the silver needles one by one.
After bandaging her finger, Qin's complexion had returned to normal.
Everyone's anxious hearts slowly settled down.
Not long after, Qin woke up slowly: "What happened?"
"Mom, you've been poisoned. If it weren't for my sister-in-law, something terrible would have happened." He Yunyi said in a crying voice.
Qin patted Shang Ruoyi's hand and said, "Thank you for your hard work, kid."
"Mother, you are too polite. Do you still feel uncomfortable somewhere?" Shang Ruoyi put her hand on her pulse. Qin's pulse was stable and she was fine.
Qin shook her head: "It's okay, I'm much better, I just feel a little weak."
Shang Ruoyi put the pill into her mouth: "This pill is very effective in recovering from illness. After taking it, have a good rest, and you will feel much better tomorrow."
When I came out of Qin's place, it was already bright. The sky was covered with dark clouds and a gust of wind blew. Shang Ruoyi tightened her cloak. Judging from the weather, it seemed that a heavy snow was coming.
She didn't know at this time that what they were going to face was not just a snowfall.
