After traveling through time, I thrived in ancient times

Chapter 433 Key

"Your Highness! Your Highness!"

Shen Chenli looked at the palace door with a stern look in his eyes and waved his hand for the guards standing up.

Yu Tingwan, who also took a look at the surroundings, said to the guard standing by:

"How are the people inside now?"

The head guard in charge of guarding here clasped his fists and said:

"Reporting to the princess, the man inside seemed to have an addiction to elixirs two days ago. He kept howling in the hall. In order to prevent him from hanging himself, I brought people in and tied him up. Now there is no movement."

Hearing this, Yu Tingwan nodded slightly, but she was not worried at all whether the person inside would commit suicide. After all, how could a person like him choose to commit suicide?

After knowing the situation, the two stepped into the hall.

The light in the hall was dim, and one could only see the general appearance of what was inside. Not only that, but the hall was also filled with an indescribable smell.

The guard outside the door lit the candles in the hall, then bowed and retreated.

"Hey, who is it? Come here...!"

The hall was quiet for a while, and then a hoarse and weak voice was heard coming from the bed not far away. The voice seemed to be squeezed out of the throat, which seemed a little scary in such an environment.

Yu Tingwan and the other person looked at each other, then slowly walked over. The curtains beside the bed had been opened, and a weak figure was lying on the bed, with half-open eyes, looking hard into the distance, as if trying hard to see who was coming in.

As the figure got closer, Shen Haocang, who was originally so weak that he could hardly open his eyes, now had his pupils constricted, and he didn't know where he got the strength from, but he opened his eyes wide.

"You, you! Shen Chenli!"

It was indeed him, the traitor!

The two people who came closer also frowned as they looked at Shen Haocang, who was lying on the bed in front of them and looked so unreliable that he could hardly be called a human being.

One reason was that he was poisoned by the unpleasant smell emanating from the bed, and the other reason was that he was shocked by the person he saw.

They already knew that Shen Haocang's body must be in a state of disfigurement due to the elixir, but they didn't expect that they would see such a person.

To describe him as skinny was not enough, not to mention the dark circles under his eyes. He looked as horrible as a thousand-year-old corpse that had crawled out of a coffin.

Not only that, ever since Shen Jingming imprisoned him here, no one has been taking care of him. In addition, Shen Chenli has been back for such a long time and has not taken care of him, so he left him here alone.

It's a miracle that he's not dead!

Shen Chenli looked at him with deep eyes, took another step forward and looked at him carefully.

"My brother doesn't look well now!"

Shen Chenli called "Royal Brother" in a very ironic way.

Shen Haocang was panting heavily, staring at Shen Chenli with wide eyes as if he wanted to eat Shen Chenli alive.

However, he didn't expect that Shen Chenli didn't seem to intend to listen to him. Seeing his performance, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"When my brother did those things, did you ever think that you would end up like this?"

"You, you... traitor! Someone come!"

Shen Chenli snorted coldly, not caring at all about him calling him a traitor. He just looked down at him and said:

"I don't want to say anything else to you, but I must let my brother share the pain I've suffered, so that I can relieve the hatred in my heart!"

After saying that, he was about to ask Yu Tingwan if he still had the Seven-Day Heartbreak Powder, when he saw Yu Tingwan take out a box that looked very familiar, so he looked over in confusion.

"The pill I gave you before is another kind of poison if taken alone." Yu Tingwan looked at Shen Chenli and smiled.

Then he turned his gaze to Shen Haocang, who was lying on the bed listening to them talking, with a cold smile in his eyes.

Seeing this, Shen Chenli curled up a smile, reached out to take the box, opened it, took out the black pill inside, and turned to look at Shen Haocang lying on the bed.

"No, you are murdering the emperor!"

But seeing the coldness on Shen Chenli's face, he knew that he would not let him go, and then he became a little flustered.

Shen Haocang's expression changed instantly, and he looked at Shen Chenli and begged bitterly.

"Brother, have you forgotten? I have treated you badly over the years. Even if I was confused for a moment, you should have tolerated me! If you really poisoned me, how would the people of the world view you? How would the history books of later generations write about you? Aren't you afraid of being infamous for eternity?"

Hearing this, Yu Tingwan looked at him and sneered, saying in a cold voice:

"History books are all written by victors. Moreover, even if a tyrant like you is killed, it is to eliminate harm for the people and for the sake of the people of the world. How can the people blame me?"

It was at this time, after hearing Yu Tingwan's words, that Shen Haocang suddenly remembered the self-proclaimed name Shen Chenli had just used, and he understood it instantly!

He looked at Shen Chenli in disbelief, but still couldn't resist the poison entering his mouth.

"This medicine will take effect every day until he dies."

Yu Tingwan's words made Shen Chenli feel even more satisfied. It was enough for him to know that he would not have an easy life. He would not live long anyway, so he could not just let him die in vain!

"you……"

Shen Haocang looked extremely embarrassed as he rolled off the bed due to excessive excitement.

Even though he tried his best to gag, he still couldn't spit out the pill he had swallowed. He raised his finger and pointed at the two of them with a vicious light in his eyes, but he knew that he could no longer do anything!

Shen Chenli looked at him but didn't intend to say anything else. Everything became meaningless.

"Let's go."

After the two of them returned to the front hall, Shen Chenli let out a sigh of relief, as if all the depression that had been hidden in his heart for a long time was finally released.

"it's over!"

Hearing this, Yu Tingwan nodded slowly, "It's over!"

Then, as if he remembered something, he reached out and took out a key that he had received from the emperor before.

Shen Chenli's gaze was also attracted, and they both looked at what Yu Tingwan was holding.

"This key is different from the other two!"

Even though the porcelain token was surprising enough, I didn't expect that this token was actually made of wood.

"It's good that we can find it anyway. There's only one key left, and I'll have people pay more attention to it."

If they can find it completely, they can go looking for the treasure. Apart from anything else, if there really is a treasure, no one would think it is too much, right?

What's more, now they not only have a large army to support, but also so many common people to support. They really can't think that the money is too much!

Similarly, Yu Tingwan also nodded repeatedly. Even if she didn't have the key, she would still go to the place where the treasure was hidden to take a look. If that didn't work, couldn't she just use explosives to blow it up?

If there really is a treasure, it must be hers no matter what!

But they can't go out now because there are more important things to do. The entire Da Sheng is in ruins and it is time to choose an auspicious day to hold the coronation ceremony.

Only the emperor's accession to the throne can stabilize the people's hearts, otherwise the people of Da Sheng will still be in panic.
