Chapter 346: Princess Stabbed
When the sky was full of colorful clouds, the Eighth Princess slowly woke up in Shang Buqun's arms!
When she looked up and saw the handsome face she had always dreamed of appear before her, the Eighth Princess thought for a moment that she was dreaming!
She gently stroked his facial features with deep attachment and reluctance!
Shang Buqun grabbed her hand and kissed it on his lips, and said in a hoarse voice: "Eighth Princess, wait a little longer. When the situation in the capital is clear, you can return to the capital and let me be responsible for you!"
Prince Jing has been going out frequently at night recently, and when he comes back, his brows are full of gloom. The situation in the capital may be worse than they expected. It is not a good time for the Eighth Princess to return to the capital.
Hearing the familiar and gentle voice, the Eighth Princess woke up from her dream, buried her head in his arms, and shook her head: "Even though every organ in my body is clamoring to go with you, we both have responsibilities and missions, and I can't be willful."
"This is unfair to you!" Shang Buqun didn't know whether he did it out of responsibility or just to make himself feel better, but he just didn't want a weak woman like her to face such a heavy responsibility alone.
"If I just go with you, what's the point of the marriage? The peace between the two countries can no longer withstand the slightest disturbance. Besides, if we all leave, can the Sixth Prince survive in Miaojiang? Also, even if I change my name when I return to the capital, can my appearance deceive my Fifth Brother and the others?
It is a troubled time and the direction of the capital is uncertain. I cannot cause more trouble for my fourth brother! I am sorry!"
Shang Buqun hugged her tighter with distress. Was the inexplicable emotion in his heart because he felt sad for her clarity and kindness? Or was he beginning to have feelings for her?
Shang Buqun felt confused.
The Eighth Princess is not as stunning and free and easy as Yu Jiuer. She is just a lovely girl at best. How could such a woman win his heart?
He must be lusting after her body, that's all!
Yes, that must be the case!
Out of responsibility, Shang Buqun spoke to comfort the well-behaved and gentle girl in his arms: "Don't worry, wait until the eldest prince is escorted to the capital, and then we will see what happens!
It would be unfair to the Sixth Prince if I stay here, so I'd better go back to the capital first. After I have arranged everything in the capital, I will ask your sister Yu, who has a head full of tricks, to help you devise a way to escape."
"Yeah!" This is a rare opportunity for tenderness, and the Eighth Princess doesn't want to waste it on an argument, so whatever he says is what it is!
At the same time, in the Miaojiang Palace.
The Miaojiang King was so angry that he swept everything on the imperial platform to the ground. "I have helped him so much, but he actually said that he has to take care of his own affairs first and can't take care of the Miaojiang King Jing for the time being? Does he have something more important than killing the King Jing in the capital? I think he thinks that the King Jing is difficult to deal with, so he is looking for an excuse?"
"Your Majesty, didn't the Fifth Prince say that he had ordered someone to help you lure Prince Jing away and keep him away from Yongcheng? This is a good opportunity!" The eunuch beside the Miaojiang King hurriedly said, "Once Prince Jing leaves Yongcheng, we can take the opportunity to get rid of that evil beast first!"
"You're right! That beast looks at me with hostility, I really can't let him live!" The Miaojiang King's eyes were sinister, and he sneered, "Order all the shadow guards to gather all their strength, and kill that beast as soon as Prince Jing leaves the Yongcheng city gate, to prevent any more trouble!"
"Yes!"
The next day, Jun Mo stopped Shang Buqun who was about to leave on his horse and said, "I have to go out for a few days for something. Can you not rush back to the capital and stay here for a few days until I come back before setting off again?"
Shang Buqun had no choice but to nod his head reluctantly: "Okay, but, tell your wife who is always making trouble to stop causing trouble, or I will make her pay!"
"She went back to the witch yesterday to help them find a way to sell the Gu wine. You can sleep well!" Jun Mo's eyes were full of teasing.
On the night that Jun Mo left, the Sixth Prince's mansion was hit by a fierce attack.
The Miaojiang Shadow Guards carrying poisoned people rushed towards the Sixth Prince's mansion like a tide.
The Sixth Prince's eyes were fierce and he taunted, "Is that devil going to use all his strength to kill me tonight? He is so impatient!"
"Stop talking nonsense and take the Eighth Princess away!" Shang Buqun yelled at him while beating him.
He fought against a hundred people alone, together with the secret guards left by Jun Mo and the guards of the Eighth Princess.
When the Eighth Princess saw Shang Buqun’s arm was stabbed with a sword, she was terrified and cried to him, “I won’t leave. We live together and die together! Be careful!”
As she spoke, she picked up the sword on the ground and slashed at the enemy with all her might, like a madman. Her movements were disorganized, but her momentum was so strong that she seemed to be risking her life.
The Eighth Princess only knew that she had to help Shang Buqun and was willing to risk her life to help him fight the enemy!
"Jun Min'er, stop it! Run away!" Shang Buqun was extremely anxious. She was simply causing more trouble.
The shadow guard took advantage of Shang Buqun's distraction and swung a sword directly at him.
The Eighth Princess, who had just stopped moving, happened to see this heart-wrenching scene. Without thinking, she flew forward to help him block the terrible sword.
"Puff!" The sound of the sword entering the body was heard, but the Eighth Princess curled up the corners of her lips happily, just because she was safe!
When Shang Buqun saw the sword pierce the eighth princess's stomach, his heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and he was in so much pain that he could hardly breathe.
"Jun Min'er!"
He flew over and caught the fallen Eighth Princess, trembling with fear!
The Sixth Prince does not know martial arts, but he has the ability to control poisonous insects. All the poisoned people who come are controlled by him.
He then took the opportunity to release the flying insect Gu that he had trained for a long time.
Suddenly, the air was filled with flying insects that looked like fireflies.
When the shadow guards touch these flying insect poisons, their entire bodies will itch, an itch that cannot be controlled even with willpower.
Soon, the shadow guards had to evacuate first.
The Eighth Princess finally couldn't stand the pain in her body. She fainted before she could even say a word to comfort Shang Buqun and tell him not to be sad!
"Eighth Princess, wake up, don't fall asleep! Someone come! Call a doctor! Quick!" Shang Buqun found that his voice and hands were trembling.
Only at this moment did he realize how important the Eighth Princess was to him!
If it weren't for her body, he would even be willing to exchange his life for her so that she could continue to smile at him.
He admitted that the Eighth Princess had stolen his heart without him realizing it!
The Eighth Princess's accompanying doctor came over and examined her and said, "It didn't hit her vital parts, but the sword is poisonous. It's a bit tricky!"
The doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked the Sixth Prince, "Sixth Prince, I heard that there is a kind of poisonous insect in Miaojiang that can absorb silver snake venom. Can we let the insect absorb some of the toxin first? This poison is not difficult to cure, but it is the middle of the night and we can't find an antidote. We can't delay any longer!"
Without saying a word, the Sixth Prince ran back to his room and took out the insect. When he was about to push aside the Eighth Princess's clothes and put the insect in, Shang Buqun took the insect and put it in himself, not wanting another man to touch the person in his arms.
The Sixth Prince shook his head and laughed, chanting a spell to let the insect absorb the poison as quickly as possible.
After a night of treatment, the eighth princess was finally out of danger.
The doctor heaved a sigh of relief and said, "The sword wound is not serious! It will be fine once most of the poison is absorbed. I will get the antidote tomorrow. Princess Eighth will be fine after a few days of rest!"
Shang Buqun suddenly grabbed the doctor by the collar and questioned him: "She looked extremely pale, and you actually said that she was fine? Do you know how to treat her? If you delay the treatment, you will lose your head."
"I have been practicing medicine for thirty years, how could I make a wrong diagnosis? If you don't believe me, you can ask someone else to come and see me! I see that you are more nervous about the Eighth Princess than the Sixth Prince. If someone doesn't know, they would think that you are the Eighth Princess's husband!"
The Sixth Prince patted Shang Buqun on the shoulder and said, "Don't be nervous! The Eighth Princess is blessed with a good life, nothing will happen to her!"
Only then did Shang Buqun regain some of his sanity.
