Chapter 34 Threat

Author: Ragdoudou

"I guessed that you have an extraordinary status, but I didn't expect that you are the Prince of the East Palace!" The old Taoist snorted coldly and raised his chained hand, "Is this how you treat guests? I am your savior!

"

"How could I treat my benefactor ill? I just couldn't bear to leave Taoist Priest, for fear that you would run away!" Xie Yun smiled with his eyes bent, showing a bit of cynical arrogance, but it made people feel a little chilled.

"What on earth do you want to do?"

"Nanling is prolific in secret medicines. It is said that your Medicine King Valley once presented a magic medicine to the former emperor, which can not only make you immortal, but can also bring you back to life?"

Hearing this, the old Taoist priest's expression changed, but he said sarcastically: "Why didn't Monk Tang come to your mouth back then? Is he still immortal and brought back to life? It's all happened in the previous dynasty, do you believe it?"

Xie Yun looked at the Taoist priest, his smile gradually fading. He raised his hand, and under the light of the candle, the shadow of his long fingers hitting the wall looked like the hand of a Buddha, making people breathless.

Zong Yue moved in as if he were moving a house, bringing in eighteen kinds of torture instruments, some of which even had blood stains that hadn't even dried yet.

Xie Yun changed his face in a second, with such a vicious look that the old Taoist priest turned pale with fright. Knowing that he would never be merciful, he quickly shouted loudly: "It has been lost, it has been lost long ago! If there really was such a medicine in the previous dynasty,

, and your Xie family won’t take over the world!”

"Prince, why are you obsessed with the art of immortality at such a young age? Even if there is such a magical medicine that can make you immortal alone, what fun would it be to watch the people around you die?"

Xie Yun's expression did not change, but Zong Yue kept on taking a torture tool and put it on the old Taoist priest. The cold iron chain and the smell of blood directly made the old Taoist priest collapse.

"You can give it a try, you can give it a try!" The old Taoist priest shed tears of fear, complaining countless times in his heart why he didn't listen to Jiang Nan and why he had to save a lunatic?

Xie Yun's smile crept into his eyes, and he said softly: "Just ask for anything you need, and I'll get it all for you!"

After saying that, he stood up and prepared to leave.

The old Taoist priest behind him was unwilling to give up and muttered in a low voice, "It is indeed recorded in ancient books, but there is no such magic medicine in the world. It can only prolong life, heal injuries and cure poisons. I can only give it a try."

Because he was far away, Xie Yun didn't hear everything, but he still stopped, turned his head and said, "That's enough."

The flower window is half open, there is no moon shadow in the sky, there is no wind on the midsummer night, it is hot and dry.

Jiang Nan asked Dingdong to accompany Xie Shu into the East Palace. She moved into the Jiang Mansion alone. Perhaps because of fate, Xie Shu would eventually be the next owner of the East Palace, so Jiang Nan was very relieved about the East Palace.

Having dinner in the old lady's courtyard, the grandfather and grandson had no blood ties or feelings, and were so cold that they didn't even have polite words.

After leaving, Jiang Nan walked carelessly along the corridor of the mansion, feeling a strange yet familiar feeling spread in her heart.

At the end of the corridor, a tall figure stood in the center, blocking the way.

Jiang Nan took a closer look, calmed her expression, and called out softly: "Eldest brother... are you waiting for me?"

Jiang Shang is the elder brother of Jiang Yuan. He is a man of literary and military skills. He passed the imperial examination at the age of eighteen and became an official in the court. Now he is rising through the ranks and is the most promising man of this generation of the Jiang family.

The brother and sister lost their father when they were young, so he was good at everything but doted on his sister to an extreme. However, he only doted on his own sister.

"Yes!" Jiang Shang walked up to Jiang Nan, his face that had always been stern and unsmiling, even more chilly in the night, he whispered, "Jiang Nan, brother and sister, I came here to give you a few words!"

"Brother, please speak."

"After all, you are the daughter of the Jiang family. You will be prosperous and suffer losses. Don't do things that harm others but not yourself! Otherwise, I will never stand idly by!"

These words are undoubtedly a naked threat.

"I have a clear conscience. I didn't know that my eldest brother specifically mentioned this, but I was afraid of what I would do?" Jiang Nan looked directly into Jiang Shang's eyes. She was no longer as afraid of Jiang Shang as she was three years ago.

Jiang Shang's expression remained unchanged, his face was stern, and he said in a cold voice: "What did you do three years ago? Just forget it if you say you've forgotten it, so I won't mention it. But if you dare to make the same mistake again, I won't do what you did three years ago." It was gently uncovered like before!"

Hearing this, Jiang Nan laughed so hard that his whole body was shaking. Jiang Shang's face became more and more ugly. When he was about to leave, Jiang Nan spoke.

"Three years ago, I just hooked up with a man and ruined the reputation of the Jiang family. I have suffered all the retribution I deserve. How come it was just a slight revelation when it came to the eldest brother's mouth? You have never treated me like this. It’s easy!” Jiang Nan sneered.

Under Jiang Shang's slightly surprised gaze, she said softly: "The one who was lightly uncovered has always been my cousin! It's the eldest brother who only believes in her!"

"If you just stay safe, how can your family treat you badly?" Jiang Shang scolded him coldly, but his eyebrows showed a guilty conscience. He prided himself on standing upright, but when it came to Jiang Nan, he Choose to ignore.

This is also because Jiang Nan is willing to degenerate and cannot blame others.

There was a layer of mist in Jiang Nan's eyes, and she said numbly: "You say such things because you have never...been abandoned!"

"..."

The Nanchuan Pavilion assigned to Jiang Nan was the courtyard where her mother lived when she was a child, and it was also where she got married.

The candles were lit all the way, Jiang Nan rested her face on the window sill of the attic with her palms on her face, her thoughts changing over and over again.

Viewed from a high place, all the courtyards in the mansion are going about their business step by step, no different from usual.

Jiang Ying's body was still cold, and no one in this cold mansion cared about it, not even Jiang Nan.

Just like when she was rescued from the dungeon by Sheng Ning, she had shocking wounds all over her body, festering and smelly. They looked on indifferently, and no one wanted to find the perpetrator and punish her severely, so as to find justice for her.

She was even afraid of exposing her family to public disgrace, so she didn't even find a serious doctor for her. Instead, she found a medical woman who randomly administered some medicine and left her to fend for herself.

No one will care how much pain she feels, they will only say: "This child is ruined, abandon it!"

If he died like that, it might be a good thing for the Jiang family.

The same bloodline, so similar, Jiang Nan was thinking about how to use Jiang Ying's death to drag Jiang Yuan into trouble.

A light rain suddenly came and fell on the window edge, wetting Jiang Nan's face. She raised her hand to wipe it, but she couldn't tell whether it was tears or rain.

On the path outside the courtyard, a flower umbrella came into view, and the dress under the umbrella was flowing gracefully with the walking steps.

When Jiang Nan stepped down from the attic, Sheng Ning closed the umbrella and pushed the door open.

"Why are you alone? Where's Shu'er?" Sheng Ning was holding a lot of gadgets in his hand. He originally planned to surprise Xie Shu, but unexpectedly the whole attic was empty, and Jiang Nan was the only one holding it.

"Sent to the palace."

"I'm so exhausted." Sheng Ning was a little disappointed. He threw all the things he was carrying on the ground and sighed, "Your boy has a round face. He is really cute. No wonder the Queen likes it. I think He likes it too! If I were the queen, I would keep him by my side to play with all day long!"
