Chapter 169: A ferocious tiger (7)

A battle between two armies, formation was extremely important. Xie Xuanchen thought about what he would say to Xie Xuanji and the others, but was caught off guard by Mu Mingtang"s questioning of his character. He felt extremely wronged and couldn"t help but blurt out: "When did I ever lie to you?"

Xie Xuanji couldn"t help but cough. They were already waiting for him, but what exactly was Xie Xuanchen doing? Does he look down on them this much?

Mu Mingtang turned a deaf ear, she immediately realised that Xie Xuanchen"s hand had a few more cuts. She felt both distressed and angry. She reached out to hold Xie Xuanchen"s hand and used all her might to move his fingers, as she tried to s.n.a.t.c.h the shattered pieces out of his hand.

Mu Mingtang"s strength was nowhere near to Xie Xuanchen’s. Xie Xuanchen"s veins were popping violently, he almost couldn’t take it: "Do you want to die? Let go!"

"No, you’re the one who wants to die! If you die, I can"t live on. Instead of dying in the hands of others, it is better to die in your hands. If you are determined to die, then take me with you."

The blood in Xie Xuanchen"s hand flowed onto Mu Mingtang, and it didn"t take long for Mu Mingtang’s hands to be covered in blood, the sight of it was horrifying. After all, Xie Xuanchen tried his best to restrain himself, so in the end, he let Mu Mingtang s.n.a.t.c.h the weapon from him. Mu Mingtang exhausted all her strength and threw the piece away, but it actually just fell three steps away from them.

For Xie Xuanchen, the distance was vain, but with Mu Mingtang by his side, she was even more inescapable than a heavy and st.u.r.dy chain. Mu Mingtang still placed her hand on his arm ignorantly, trying to stop the blood on Xie Xuanchen: "You’ve bled a lot, take the medicine first, and then I’ll go and get the imperial physician to bandage you."

Xie Xuanchen felt that the blood on his body was both cold and hot. He couldn"t really control his strength now. He didn"t dare to touch Mu Mingtang, and he was afraid that Mu Mingtang would get hurt if she stayed here. He had lost a great amount of blood over a long period of time, his lips were pale at the moment, and even his voice sounded m.u.f.fled: "Bring me the water."

Xie Xuanji was shocked again. He couldn"t help but stare closely at Xie Xuanchen"s movements. After taking the Jing Erdan, he would be dependent on it and it’ll turn into an addiction. Xie Xuanji knew, the Emperor knew, and Xie Xuanchen knew.

Knowing well that there was something wrong with the medicine, how could Xie Xuanchen really drink it? Xie Xuanji suspected that Xie Xuanchen was planning on faking his actions to catch them off guard and disarm them, but even until Xie Xuanchen raised his neck and swallowed the medicine, Xie Xuanji didn’t even blink, nor did the sudden attack that he expected happened.

Xie Xuanchen really took the medicine, a medicine that he knew extremely well that there was something wrong with it.

The ones present, he was afraid that only Mu Mingtang smiled in relief, she stroked Xie Xuanchen on the back, and then asked: "Do you want some water?"

Xie Xuanchen shook his head and stood up slowly. After coming in for so long, Xie Xuanchen placed his gaze on the group of soldiers for the first time. Everyone could not help but clench tightly on their shields and swords, and felt speechlessly nervous.

However, Xie Xuanchen just said coldly and impatiently: "I had a fight with my wife, what does this have to do with all of you? Get lost!"

Jiang Mingwei finally built up the courage to enter, and just after crossing the door sill, she heard the word "get lost" again, but this time, the person was Xie Xuanchen.

Jiang Mingwei stopped in her steps, she looked up and found that Xie Xuanji"s expression didn’t look too good. In addition, the other guards also had strange expressions on their faces, they looked lost and wronged.

Jiang Mingwei felt that something was wrong: "What"s wrong?"

"His Royal Highness An"s condition is already under control……" The guard’s expression gave off a vibe implying that it was hard to tell her the full story now, "Today, the both of them actually just got in a fight."

"So?"

"Now Prince An wants us to get lost."

At this moment, Mu Mingtang"s angry shout came from inside: "Wait, fix the door for me before you get lost!"
