Chapter 539: Was it Really All Right to be so Venomous Tongued Like This?

Li Shaoqiu looked at the rest in uncertainty, not understanding why they did not budge. Jiang Wuhen looked at Li Shaoqiu’s lost expression and could not help but open his mouth and offer an explanation.

“I feel that there will be another chapter to this. With my understanding of Chuxi, she is not only despicable, she is also... ah! No, no, no! What I mean is, not only is Chuxi intelligent, she is also good at martial arts, smart, clever, may appear foolish but is actually very wise, shrewder than the ordinary person, sinisterly apt at killing people in the dark with her words without compensating with her life. All to say, I just feel that someone is about to get unlucky,” Jiang Wuhen spoke the words in his heart as he stroked his chin. It was just that he had just spoken a little too honestly and gained the fifth princess’ dangerous gaze as a result, so he immediately changed what he was going to say into a flattering bunch of words.

“That’s right! How could I have forgotten? Hahaha!” laughed the fifth princess before turning to stare at the door of the private room eagerly, making the others who were looking on not being able to help but laugh.

“Arghhhhh!” Just then, a pitiful wail could be heard coming from the private room. When the door swung open, only Si Nanchen could be seen with his mouth crooked and his nose twisted. His lips were clamped tightly together and large bean-like beads of sweat flowed down his forehead. Both his hands were twitching nonstop and he was quickly walking out of the room with the support of a few of his guards.

“Fifth Highness, what’s wrong with you? If you are sick, then you should have stayed at Ding Lin Country to properly rest and recuperate. Why are you still running around like this? If other people were to see your sickness act up, wouldn’t that be so shameful to the royal family?” said the fifth princess with great heartache as she walked over to greet Si Nanchen with a face full of concern.

Si Nanchen’s entire body felt like it was being pricked by needles all over, and it was very painful and itchy. Originally, he was still gritting his teeth and forcefully holding on, but when he heard the fifth princess’ words, his eyes rolled back and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. ‘How dare you say I’m sick? You’re the one who’s sick! Your entire family is sick!’

Ling Chuxi who was standing to the side almost laughed out loud. Not bad. This round little fifth princess was almost ready to graduate. Ling Yichen and Fu Chengyu had beads of cold sweat appearing on their foreheads. The fifth princess’ venomous tongue was obviously honed under the influence of Ling Chuxi. As a proper princess of a country, was it really all right for her to have such a venomous tongue?

Li Shaoqiu watched on with his eyes popped wide and mouth hanging agape. He turned to look at Jiang Wuhen in shock. ‘He was right! Someone really got unlucky!’

“Brother Jiang, you truly are a fortune teller,” whispered Li Shaoqiu into Jiang Wuhen’s ear in a hushed voice that only the two of them could hear.

“Of course. Can’t you see who I am?” replied Jiang Wuhen, showing off with a flip of his head.

At this moment, nobody was bothered by the weird conversation that these two clowns were having as all their attention was focused on Si Nanchen who still had a painful expression on his face.

“Your Highness, what’s wrong with you?” asked one of Si Nanchen’s guards anxiously. Given their level of cultivation, it was obvious that they could not tell what exactly was wrong with Si Nanchen. Could it be that he had a hidden disease? If that were the case, he really should not have left Ding Lin Country to come here.

Si Nanchen’s guards felt their heads swell with migraines. If anything untoward happened to Si Nanchen in Nan Xia Country, the heads above their necks would be lost.

“You idiot! Can’t you see that I’ve been poisoned?!” scolded Si Nanchen violently with his crooked mouth.

“How dare you poison Fifth Highness and cause him harm?!” cried the guards angrily as they glared at Ling Chuxi.

“Medicine can be simply eaten but words cannot be simply spoken. Which one of you saw us poisoning him? How dare you falsely accuse us! The son of heaven and the ordinary citizen are equal in the eyes of the law. Since you have falsely accused us like this, we will have to take you to court!” said Ling Chuxi righteously.

That guard was momentarily at a loss for words. With their cultivation levels, if Ling Chuxi and the rest had poisoned Fifth Highness, it should not have been something they would be able to hide from their eyes. But thinking about it, there were indeed no signs of poisoning. Could it be that the Fifth Highness simply felt too ashamed to admit to whatever hidden disease he had?

Thinking about this, the guards looked at Si Nanchen with odd gazes.

The people in Ling Chuxi’s group felt that they were about to die laughing inside their hearts, but on the outside, they looked very serious.
