The number one rebel of the Great Wu

Seeing Geng Liang pull Yu Zhu down to kneel and kowtow, Chen Changgeng quickly helped the two of them up.

He briefly explained the whole story, stating that redeeming Yuzhu was also his way of repaying a debt of gratitude, and that the two of them were now even.

As for the silver that Chen Changgeng was robbed of, it had long been returned by the elders of the Shen family branch, and even replenished to three thousand taels.

"My benefactor, if you say that, how will Yuzhu conduct herself in the future?"

Yu Zhu covered her mouth, her eyes filled with guilt.

"Your greatest act of kindness is to live well."

"On the other hand, I am merely a servant under Her Highness the Crown Princess, and I cannot accept such kneeling and gratitude from you."

"Let's not mention these things again in the future."

"If you two are willing, I will arrange a place for you."

Chen Changgeng explained Shen Qingci's arrangements, and then took out a one-hundred-tael silver note.

"You two should divide this money. You can use it to support your parents, pay off debts, or handle other matters at hand."

"In three days, you will be returning to the capital with me."

Yu Zhu, being a solitary woman, readily agreed to the arrangement, but she was still somewhat apprehensive about serving such an important figure as the Crown Princess.

But Geng Liang was different. He took the silver note and was completely stunned.

It should be noted that ten taels of silver is enough for a family to live comfortably for a year.

He's never even seen so much money before!

Following Chen Changgeng in the future will surely bring endless wealth and honor.

Mother...is your son going to be successful?

"Brother Chen...this!"

Geng Liang's eyes reddened, and he looked down at the silver note in his hand, still with an expression of disbelief.

"Alright, take it."

"If you really want to thank me, then in the future, if I need you to do anything, just do your best."

Geng Liang trembled and couldn't help but kneel down again, kowtowing three times heavily.

"I, Geng Liang, will follow Brother Chen for the rest of my life, with no second thoughts!"

"May anyone who rebels be struck by lightning!"

……

That night.

Inside Shen Qingci's room.

"How is it? Can you feel a pulse?"

Shen Qingci asked anxiously.

Ru Shuang was speechless.

"Your Highness, only one day has passed. How can you determine the pulse so quickly?"

"Even the best doctor needs at least half a month to determine the pulse."

"For martial arts practitioners like us, it takes at least three to five days after conception to use internal energy for investigation."

Shen Qingci withdrew her hand, gently rubbing her wrist, seemingly lost in thought.

"Your Highness, Xiao Gengzi has already taken his drink and fallen asleep."

"As you instructed, not only was the dosage of the medicine doubled, but I also added aphrodisiac powder to the wine."

"Should we... bring him over now?"

Ruyi overheard this quietly from the side.

Shen Qingci gently bit her lip, hesitating for a moment.

"Go, go ahead."

"I must conceive a royal heir as soon as possible, so I can only ask him to make do."

A moment later, Chen Changgeng was thrown onto Shen Qingci's bed.

Chen Changgeng kept his eyes closed and waited for Ru Shuang and Ru Yi to leave before daring to continue circulating his internal energy to neutralize the poison.

He was speechless; these three women combined couldn't even muster a single brain.

With so many additives in a pot of wine, the wine is so cloudy it can be drawn into strands; who wouldn't notice something's wrong?

That is, he poured it in with his eyes closed.

It's like Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai—one was willing to hit and the other was willing to be hit.

A soft sound came from beside my ear, and a warm, soft body pressed against me.

The movements were gentle yet awkward, causing Chen Changgeng to open his eyes a crack.

You might not notice it, but once you do, your blood will be pumping!

"what!"

Shen Qingci covered her mouth and screamed in surprise.

"So this herbal powder is that effective?"

"If only I had used it yesterday! It would have saved me all that trouble!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Qingci leaned in and gently pinched Chen Changgeng's cheek, seemingly with some resentment.

"If we're really talking about it, you're the luckiest little eunuch in the world."

"I will do it myself. You just need to stay still and enjoy yourself."

"Luckily you were unconscious. If you had known about this, I would have killed you without hesitation!"

That shameless woman, she's still putting on an act!

Chen Changgeng gritted his teeth secretly, thinking, "Just wait and see how I deal with this today!"

"Um……"

Chen Changgeng gave a soft hum, his brow furrowing as if in a dream.

This single action terrified Shen Qingci, who immediately grabbed a blanket and held it to her chest.

But after a moment, seeing that Chen Changgeng was breathing evenly and didn't seem to want to wake up, he felt a little relieved.

Unexpectedly, Chen Changgeng suddenly rolled over and pulled her into his arms.

"what!"

Shen Qingci screamed again, trying to break free, but dared not move too much, for fear of waking Chen Changgeng.

Chen Changgeng harbored a wicked intention, pretending to be in a dream, and flipped over to pin Shen Qingci down!

"You bastard, what... what are you doing!"

"You dare to bully me in your dreams!"

Shen Qingci reached out to push him away, but Chen Changgeng was incredibly strong, and she couldn't budge him at all.

Just as I was thinking about how to deal with it, suddenly...

Shen Qingci's eyes widened!

……

The next morning.

Refreshing!

Thinking about how Shen Qingci had been severely disciplined by him yesterday, and how she hadn't dared to resist at all, he felt incredibly pleased.

What Crown Princess? She's completely under my control!

"Little Gengzi, His Highness summons you."

Ru Shuang gently knocked on the door.

Chen Changgeng quickly got dressed, pushed open the door, and saw Ru Shuang staring straight at him.

His gaze was clearly somewhat strange.

"What brings Your Highness here so early?"

Chen Changgeng pretended not to know anything and asked curiously.

Ru Shuang turned around and led the way, cautiously probing as she went.

"His Highness is just concerned about you. After all, you were covered in injuries from carrying out your mission, and His Highness couldn't bear it, so he asked a doctor to get you some medicine for your wounds."

"By the way, did you sleep well last night?"

Chen Changgeng chuckled.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. Your wine was a great help."

"I slept very soundly yesterday, all the way until dawn. Now, apart from some minor aches and pains, I'm fine..."

Before she finished speaking, Ru Shuang suddenly turned around and raised her hand to strike Chen Changgeng in the chest.

what?

Chen Changgeng was startled, but he quickly realized that this was Ru Shuang testing him.

He immediately dispersed his internal energy and took the blow head-on.

"puff!"

With a muffled thud, Chen Changgeng was sent flying backward, landing awkwardly and rolling several meters away.

Damn, this woman really doesn't hold back!

Chen Changgeng coughed, feeling a suffocating pain in his chest, and then coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"Ru Shuang... young lady, why, why are you doing this?!"

"Have I ever offended you? Why are you taking advantage of my illness to try and kill me!"

Chen Changgeng's eyes widened, and he clutched his chest, trembling as he asked the question.

Ru Shuang's heart skipped a beat. Oh no!

How come this kid is so weak? I only used three-tenths of my strength!

"Oh no! Call a doctor! Quickly, call a doctor!!!"
