Chapter 40 Poisoning
Shen Ruo walked up to him and looked down at him: "Since you are so open-minded, then there is no need for me to save you."

However, the eldest prince shook his head and said firmly, "If you didn't want to save me, you wouldn't have come out."

"You have sharp teeth and a sharp mouth." Shen Ruo snorted coldly, seeing that he was already sweating and his face was as white as paper, he knew that if he didn't save people, he would have to go to Lord Hades to find someone.

He stopped talking nonsense, squatted down, and took out the scalpel. The sharp tip of the knife was like cutting tofu, and easily cut a hole in the skin, and black poisonous blood flowed out instantly.

She was seriously treating the snake bite wound here, and the eldest prince still looked at her leisurely, and said with a smile on his lips: "Your knife is not ordinary."

Shen Ruo took the time to cast a glance at him, did not speak, and pretended to be from the cuff, but actually took out a bandage from the space, tied the prince's arm, and prevented the venom from invading the heart.

The eldest prince didn't care either. After most of the poisonous blood was discharged, he put his elbows on the ground and half sat up. The rough dress style of the prairie made his neckline wide open, revealing a honey-colored and healthy chest, and the masculine charm rushed towards his face.

He glanced lazily at his horse, and said in a weak voice, "There is an antidote and water right away, go and get them."

Shen Ruo frowned uncomfortably when he heard the tone of his order, but after all, he didn't say much, and got up to get the medicine and water.

However, at this moment, she realized that something was wrong, and the chirping of insects and birds all around disappeared.

"What's the matter?" The eldest prince saw her guarded expression, and just as soon as he asked, Shen Ruo turned over and kicked him in the shoulder, and was kicked half a meter away.

"Well--"

This injury did not heal, and another injury was added. The eldest prince was not gentle and humble in nature, and he furrowed his brows and said angrily: "Woman, don't think that this prince treats you kindly, and you will treat yourself as arrogant... ..."

He glared away, but his furious words stopped abruptly. At some point, he was shot with two hidden weapons with flying knives!

At the same time, two or three men in black descended from the sky, surrounded Shen Ruo and the eldest prince, and the atmosphere instantly became extremely tense.

Shen Ruo stared at the three of them coldly, clenched the scalpel tightly in his hand, and heard one of the men in black say sullenly: "A woman, a Khitan, are not mission targets, withdraw!"

The three men in black were as strange as when they came, and they went away quietly, leaving only Shen Ruo and the eldest prince who were confused.

"what happened!?"

Being attacked by someone inexplicably, the eldest prince was angry and angry, but he had no direction to vent, which made him even angrier.

Shen Ruo cast a glance at him, saw that he didn't seem to be lying, and looked like he really didn't know about it, so he said lightly: "How do I know? You ask me, I still want to ask others!"

She lowered her eyes and pondered, those men in black just said that they were not the mission target, so who is their mission goal?

Just as she was thinking about it, suddenly there was the sound of several horses galloping towards her. When she looked up, she saw that the leader was His Highness the Second Prince, and immediately rushed to meet him.

The person who came didn't seem to expect that there were people here, seeing someone popping up, almost couldn't pull the rope in time, and bumped into it directly.

"Call-"

The second prince tried his best to tighten the reins, and at that critical moment, he finally stopped the horse, but his heart was beating violently and he was in a panic.

He gasped heavily, couldn't control his tone, and said in a bad mood: "Who, die!?"

After he finished cursing, he saw who was coming, and was stunned for a moment: "It's you!? Why are you here?"

Compared to the flustered second prince, Shen Ruo, who was almost hit by a horse, looked calm and unmoved like the wind. She didn't beat around the bush, and asked bluntly, "Did you also meet an assassin?"

The second prince was keenly aware of the word "yes" in her words immediately, and nodded, "I'm going back to the camp now, and report the situation to the emperor, so that my father can send troops to hunt down those assassins."

"Do you know who the mission targets of those assassins are?" Shen Ruo stood in front of the horse and had to raise her head to ask.

The breeze in the forest gently raised her hair, revealing her white and smooth side face, making everything so quiet and serene.

The second prince was silent for a while, with some hesitation on his face.

Seeing this, Shen Ruo immediately understood: "It's Xiao Chen?"

The second prince was startled: "How do you know?"

"Those assassins are well-trained and have clear goals. To send such a team, it must be expensive. If you can spend such a large sum of money just to kill one person, the other party is naturally of extraordinary status."

Shen Ruo analyzed unhurriedly: "In this hunt, the noble ones are you, the Khitan prince and Xiao Chen. Since you and the prince are here now, only Xiao Chen is left. gone."

Appreciation flashed in the eyes of the second prince, he raised his eyebrows and smiled, and finally there was a bit of seriousness in his smile: "Seventh brother and sister, if the seventh brother dies unfortunately this time, you will remarry to my second prince's mansion, right?"

One second, they were still discussing the serious topic of assassins, and the next second, it suddenly turned into widow remarriage. Even Shen Ruo couldn't adapt to the huge cross-domain between these two topics for a while.

"..." She looked at the second prince, who was as beautiful as a monster, and said with a very serious expression: "Second prince, you are really shameless."

The second prince happily smiled and said, "Thank you, thank you!"

To deal with this kind of shameless guy, no matter how much you say, it's just nonsense. Shen Ruo directly changed the subject and asked, "Then do you know where Xiao Chen is now?"

The second prince hesitated for a moment, as if he was thinking whether he should say he knew it or not?

However, Shen Ruo directly asked, "Where is he?"

She had already concluded that he knew.

"The seventh brother led the assassin into the depths of the dense forest in order not to involve the innocent."

At that time, he happened to be fighting for the prey with his seventh brother, so he knew the details.

He looked down at Shen Ruo who was thinking seriously, and suddenly said in surprise: "You don't intend to go to him, do you?"

Shen Ruo raised her eyes and replied, "Yes!"

As she spoke, she leaped to the steed of an unknown official's son, pulled off the rein in his hand, stepped on the saddle, jumped in the air, kicked the man off the horse, and sat on it firmly.

The second prince was surprised for a while, before he roared: "Are you crazy!? Those are all well-trained assassins! Even the seventh brother may not be their opponent."

"That's why I'm going." She pulled the horse and turned around, "If he dies, wouldn't it be very likely that I will be sold to Khitan, that's not okay!"

As she spoke, she raised her horsewhip, lashed her buttocks heavily, and drove the horse towards the depths of the dense forest.

The second prince was left speechless for a while, then turned his head to look at the half-dead Khitan prince who had been poisoned by the snake, raised his eyebrows and said: "It seems that you are very annoying, she would rather die than marry you."
