Chapter 353 Exchange Conditions
After hearing what Shang Zhanchen said, Shen Yiyi immediately put down the chicken feet in her hand and moved closer to him proudly.
"I've thought of a good way to break off the engagement!"
"What?" Shang Zhanchen almost dropped the chicken claw in his hand.
I stared at Shen Yiyi, thinking that something important happened, but it turned out to be this.
Seeing her so happy when she mentioned this, I felt angry that she was still thinking about it.
Even though he was very unhappy, he still adjusted the expression on his face.
"What method?"
Shen Yiyi was so focused on what she was about to say that she didn't notice the displeasure that flashed across the man's eyes. After hearing what he said, she grinned smugly again.
"Hehe...I plan to make a deal with the Queen."
"What conditions?" Shang Zhanchen looked at her.
Seeing how happy she was, she seemed to be very confident.
"Well... I'll give the Queen the detoxification pill and let her help me get rid of the poison..." Before Shen Yiyi could finish her words, she was interrupted by Shang Zhanchen.
"Are you saying that the queen was poisoned?" Shang Zhanchen grabbed Shen Yiyi's hand.
She said that she saw something strange in her eyes when she saw her mother that day, and she had guessed it right.
"Ouch, it hurts!" Shen Yiyi looked at her wrist and grinned.
I was talking about the queen, not his mother. Look how anxious he is.
Shang Zhanchen then realized it and immediately let her go, but his face was still anxious.
"What kind of poison was the queen poisoned with?"
No wonder the Queen Mother seemed unwell these past few days. It turned out that she was poisoned. Shen Yiyi pouted and rubbed her wrist, but still told him.
"The queen has been poisoned by a very rare exotic animal poison, it's very powerful."
"Poison from a strange beast?" Jiang Zuo rushed forward in surprise and looked at his master again.
"That's not..." He swallowed the words back halfway through.
The alien beast poison is one of the poisons that the master has been poisoned by. Thinking of the appearance of that person who is neither human nor beast, they will never forget it in their life.
"That's right, it's a kind of poison from the little bastard." Shen Yiyi nodded and looked at Shang Zhanchen again.
"We used to have a friend named Xiaoguai, and he used this poison, it's very powerful.
When it attacks, it will turn into a ferocious beast, not only losing consciousness, but also attacking people. At that time..."
Before Shen Yiyi could finish her words, she was interrupted by Shang Zhanchen.
"Then mother, um...how long has the Queen been poisoned? Has it harmed her body?" Shang Zhanchen was extremely nervous.
No one knows better than him what it feels like to be poisoned by that kind of poison, and what it would feel like if his mother was as seriously ill as he was.
Her body is suffering every day now. It aches my heart just thinking about it. How come he didn't notice it?
Shen Yiyi didn't understand why General Zhan was so nervous, but when she remembered that he and the prince were good friends, it was not surprising.
"There is definitely damage to the body, but it's not that serious, not to the point of poison taking effect.
But judging from the current situation, it will be soon, and judging from the Queen's appearance, she should still be using that poison."
"Still using it?!" Shang Zhanchen was extremely nervous.
The people in his mother's palace were all carefully selected by him, but he did not expect that someone would still take advantage of them.
"Well, the queen should still be taking that poison, but the dosage is relatively small." Shen Yiyi nodded.
I think they used such a small dosage probably because they were afraid that the Queen would find out. However, the Queen's body has already been poisoned, and it won't take long for the poison to take effect.
"Where is your antidote? Give me one." Shang Zhanchen stretched out his hand in front of Shen Yiyi.
It is urgent to detoxify the mother, and the antidote must be delivered quickly. Looking at the hand extended by the man, Shen Yiyi directly refused.
"That won't do. I'm counting on using the antidote to negotiate with the Queen."
She was worried about not being able to cancel the engagement with the prince, and now she finally got this opportunity, she absolutely could not let it go.
As long as she canceled her engagement with the prince, she would be completely free and no longer have to worry about being carried to the palace.
"You..." Shang Zhanchen gritted his teeth in anger.
He glared at Shen Yiyi with dissatisfaction. Cancel the engagement, cancel the engagement. This woman is always thinking about canceling the engagement.
But no matter how angry I am, I have to endure it for now.
"Nonsense! This matter is of great importance and cannot be played as a joke. Give me an antidote pill right away." He stretched out his hand again.
"Who is kidding! I'm serious." Shen Yiyi glared at the man with dissatisfaction.
How could she be fooling around? She was doing serious work, and it was about her freedom, but this guy actually said that she was fooling around.
"If the prince does not agree to cancel the engagement with you, will you not help the queen detoxify?" Shang Zhanchen's voice also turned cold.
He now had little patience left and wished he could deliver the antidote pills to his mother immediately.
"No, the Queen is the Prince's biological mother. How could he not care about the Queen's safety?"
Shen Yiyi looked determined. The Queen was the Prince's biological mother, so how could she not agree?
“…” Shang Zhanchen gritted his teeth in anger.
He glared at Shen Yiyi with dissatisfaction, his head aching with anger, and he didn't know what to say to her.
Seeing that their master was on the verge of a rage, Jiang Zuo and Jiang You immediately came over.
"Miss, the Queen's poisoning is serious. You should quickly give the antidote pills to General Zhan."
"Yes, Miss Shen, the Queen's status is noble and there can be no room for error. You should quickly give the antidote pill to General Zhan."
"I didn't say I wouldn't give it to her. As long as the queen agrees to help me cancel the engagement, I can immediately detoxify her."
Shen Yiyi pouted. Everyone said this, as if she was very vicious.
She didn't say she wouldn't detoxify the Queen, she just wanted to dissolve her marriage with the Prince and wanted freedom.
Seeing the Crown Princess's stubborn look, Jiang Zuo rolled his eyes.
"Hmm?" Shen Yiyi looked at Jiang Zuo suspiciously.
“My dear lady, think about how good the queen is to you. She even gave you her mother’s relics.
You can imagine how much she values you, but you want to take her life to break off the engagement with the prince. Do you think this is appropriate?"
"Yes, Miss Shen, this is indeed inappropriate. Not only does it make you seem inhumane, but you are also quite cruel. You actually disregard the Queen's life and threaten the Crown Prince."
"I didn't threaten the prince!" Shen Yiyi looked at Jiang You with a frown.
She just wanted to dissolve her marriage with the prince, and she didn't want the queen to die or threaten the prince.
"You've used this as a bargaining chip, isn't this a threat?" Shang Zhanchen looked at her with dissatisfaction.
"I..." Shen Yiyi frowned.
I really don't know what to say. She just wants to cancel the engagement and really doesn't want to make things difficult for anyone.
Seeing that his words were effective, Shang Zhanchen softened his tone.
“Today, the Queen was in the palace and even quarreled with the Emperor because of you. However, you knew that she was poisoned, but not only did you not help her cure it, you even negotiated with her.
If you were in her shoes, what would you think? Do you think you did the right thing? "
