Chen Yan
Chapter 297 Insulting Someone? This Is the Consequence.
He didn't realize that the Crown Prince of Wei Dynasty across from him had murderous intent flashing in his eyes several times.
The coldness in Xie Jin's eyes spread, but quickly receded.
He glanced at Song Yan indifferently and said calmly, "Chieftain Song, I'll only ask you one question. If I weren't about to be deposed, do you think I would have come to you?"
"To put it bluntly, if I weren't in trouble, you, Chieftain Song, wouldn't have any chance to cooperate with anyone from the royal family."
"If you don't believe me, you can go to the Second Prince, who is currently in power."
"See if he thinks highly of you, or severely humiliates you before driving you to extinction."
Xie Jin's expression was peaceful, but his words were firm.
Hearing this, Song Yan's face changed slightly.
In the eyes that were filled with contempt a moment ago, a trace of unnaturalness flashed, and there was even a hint of annoyance.
This crown prince who was about to be deposed was already a tiger fallen in the plains, but he didn't have the slightest posture of bowing his head.
So-called asking for help requires an attitude of asking for help.
This kid was so arrogant, humiliating him overtly and covertly, and still delusional about using the Song clan to seize the throne.
Song Yan's face showed anger, and he snorted coldly, "Your Highness, is this your attitude of asking for help?"
"You're already in this state, and you're still putting on the airs of a crown prince?"
"Would Chieftain Song be willing to cooperate if I didn't put on airs?"
Xie Jin interrupted him.
Looking at Song Yan's somewhat embarrassed face, he slowly and sarcastically said, "Whether I put on airs or not, isn't Chieftain Song the same?
"The same attitude towards a Southern Yue mongrel, isn't it?"
Xie Jin spoke calmly, as if he didn't care about Song Yan's insult at all.
Although the sinister look in his eyes had flashed frequently, his expression was still as calm as water.
It's often uncomfortable to punch cotton, and Song Yan was immediately choked.
In an instant, that face covered with a beard was filled with a crazy mixture of anger and embarrassment.
Song Yan gritted his teeth and simply changed the subject.
He glared at Xie Jin fiercely and said, "Your Highness is so arrogant, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"
"Or..."
A sneer flashed in his eyes, and his gaze slowly fell on Yu Qingwu.
Heh, compared to taking the life of the current crown prince, the Crown Princess being humiliated would make him suffer even more, right?
Song Yan was deliberately trying to provoke Xie Jin, and his provocation did arouse Xie Jin's anger.
However, before Xie Jin could speak, Yu Qingwu suddenly laughed, a sarcastic and mocking laugh.
A laugh that made Song Yan extremely bewildered and even more annoyed.
He looked at Yu Qingwu puzzledly, with some inexplicable and displeasure, and asked her, "What are you laughing at?"
"Laughing at your self-righteousness."
Yu Qingwu curled her lips, slowly reached for the bamboo canister around her waist, and gently pressed it. A small hole opened at the designed mechanism, and an unknown flying insect crawled out of it.
"Ah!"
Before Song Yan could react, the flying insect immediately stung him on the face.
With a scream, Song Yan hurriedly covered his face. The intense burning pain and sudden scalding heat made him dizzy instantly. He raised his hand and slapped the insect to death.
However, unexpectedly, because he touched the insect, his hand also quickly became red and swollen, and the burning pain and scalding heat immediately spread to his palm.
As the burning pain spread throughout his body, he felt as if his body was about to explode.
A moment ago, Song Yan was still posing as a chieftain, but now he was a little flustered.
He clutched his head in pain and roared at Yu Qingwu, "What... what did you do to me! Someone! Someone!"
He staggered, got up and was about to go out to call for someone, but as soon as he took a step, he heard the woman behind him coldly say, word by word, "If Chieftain Song is sincerely seeking death, then go and call for someone."
"At worst, our couple will pay for your life. It's good to have company on the road to the Yellow Springs. Anyway, we've already fallen to this point, so it's not a loss to have one more person to back us up."
Yu Qingwu's voice was faint, but every word she spoke made Song Yan tremble with fear.
Isn't that so? He only got bitten once and became like this, which shows how powerful this poisonous insect is. If this stinky woman refuses to give the antidote, wouldn't his life be lost here?
Song Yan gritted his teeth in pain. After hesitating for a moment, he reluctantly turned his head and asked Yu Qingwu hatefully, "What do you want?"
Hearing this, Yu Qingwu didn't answer.
She only slowly took out another insect from another canister and calmly placed it on Song Yan's affected area.
Seeing her putting a new insect on his face, Song Yan was instantly scared out of his wits. He didn't care about his image and retreated repeatedly, terrified, "What... what are you doing again?"
"Nothing, my wife is just detoxifying you, Chieftain Song." Xie Jin patted him on the shoulder, his eyes filled with sarcastic laughter.
If he was worried a moment ago that Qingwu would become someone else's weakness to coerce him, then at this moment, he was worried about Song Yan's safety instead.
His older sister was just a little weak-looking, just unable to practice martial arts, but that didn't mean she couldn't protect herself.
She could even protect him.
For a moment, Xie Jin breathed a sigh of relief and became even more gloating.
This damned old man Song dared to humiliate his older sister, now he knows how powerful she is, right?
"Chieftain Song, my wife is no ordinary person. I don't dare to provoke her easily on weekdays, so you should pay attention to your words."
Xie Jin's eyes were filled with laughter, and his tone gradually returned to his usual arrogance.
Song Yan shrank on the chair, trembling in pain. Seeing Xie Jin's arrogant face, he was so angry that he almost wanted to hit someone.
Tragically, he didn't even have the strength to speak at the moment, so he could only glare at Xie Jin with anger in his eyes.
After glaring for a while, he felt a little relieved, and then he gasped and opened his mouth, resentfully saying, "You... is threatening others to cooperate with you the usual practice of you royal people?"
Threaten?
When did they threaten him?
Wasn't it Song Yan who was foul-mouthed first?
It has to be said that Song Yan and Song Yilan are worthy of being father and daughter. Their mouths are just as stinky, and their logic is just as chaotic and unreasonable.
Xie Jin folded his arms across his chest, frowned and looked at him for a moment, and sneered, "Chieftain Song, I didn't threaten you. Wasn't it because you were foul-mouthed that you were taught a lesson?"
"You..."
Song Yan's face was black, and he wanted to refute, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that it was indeed the case.
He really didn't expect that the Crown Princess would be such a character.
Not as the outside world rumored, gentle and dignified, a useless idiot who only knew how to please people with her looks.
To be more precise, she shouldn't be as useless and stupid as Qin Yiliu said, but even the opposite.
Thinking of this, his anger towards Qin Yiliu deepened again.
However, he was not in the mood to find trouble with Qin Yiliu at the moment. He was too embarrassed to go out in this ghostly state.
He took a deep breath, raised his eyes to look at Yu Qingwu, and then looked at Xie Jin, and asked, "Forget it, I can be considered an elder anyway, so I won't bother with you. A deal is possible, but I, Song Yan, am not a fool. Since it's a deal, and you're the ones asking for something from me, the things you give must be worth more than their value."
