Chapter 20 The Truth Comes Out

Seeing that everyone on the field was rescued, Cang Yan was furious.

He specially arranged for people to carry out this poisoning incident in order to put the blame on the Nanzhao Kingdom and provoke a war between the major powers.

He didn't expect that they would solve the problem so easily. It seemed that he underestimated the Nanzhao Kingdom.

The poison was told to him by a Taoist priest who was highly accomplished in Taoism, and he said that no one could cure it.

Could it be that this Taoist priest deceived him?

It's impossible. He is the great general of Cang'ao State. Who dares to lie to him?

He remembered that the Taoist priest had told him that the little princess of Nanzhao Kingdom was a lucky star. Could there be any connection between them?

He might as well try it a few more times.

"Your Majesty, our princess was poisoned at your country's banquet. Shouldn't you give us an explanation? At least find out who harmed us?" Cang Yan said indignantly.

Wait, why did Mu Nanyan remember that there seemed to be this paragraph in the book? The poisoning was done by people sent by Cang Yan.

However, in the book, Emperor Hui did not find the person who poisoned him, and was eventually framed by the Cang'ao and Beiming kingdoms.

The two countries united to pressure the Nanzhao Kingdom.

In order to calm the two countries and not provoke a war, the Nanzhao Kingdom paid two cities as compensation, and the two countries gave up.

From then on, other countries felt that Nanzhao was weak and could be bullied, and tried to divide it up.

Finally, under the joint suppression of other countries, the Nanzhao Kingdom became increasingly weak and finally perished.

Okay, so I'm waiting for her here, let's see if she doesn't fight back.

[Cang Yan is too shameless. He was the one who sent someone to poison you.]

[It's easy to solve this problem. If the person is poisoned, he will definitely take the antidote I just gave them.]

[And the person who poisoned the drug will definitely not take this medicine]

[If someone who has not taken the drug does not have a special smell on his body, then this person is very likely the one who drugged you]

It’s this Cang Yan again. It seems we have to get rid of him as soon as possible, Emperor Hui said hatefully.

Yan'er is so smart that she even figured out a way to find the real murderer.

Those people actually dared to frame their Nanzhao Kingdom. If he could find the person who poisoned them, he would be able to slap those people in the face.

"Come here, pass the order to cordon off the hall and no one is allowed to enter or leave at will." Emperor Hui's gloomy face was chilling, like a powder keg ready to explode.

Following Emperor Hui's order, the Imperial Guards received his instructions and quickly surrounded the hall.

Emperor Hui was quite satisfied to see that the hall was surrounded and not even a fly could fly out.

Then he said, "Everyone was poisoned today. Doctor Wen just gave everyone an antidote."

"I think the person who poisoned the food must not have escaped from here yet. The person who didn't take the antidote must be the one who poisoned the food."

A minister echoed: "Your Majesty is wise."

Looking at this situation, Cang Yan secretly thought that this was not good.

"General Cang, what should we do? Emperor Hui wants to investigate this matter thoroughly." The person who poisoned the food was a little panicked and whispered in Cang Yan's ear.

Cang Yan angrily rebuked, "What are you afraid of? You don't have any poison on you, so it's impossible to find you."

As long as he doesn't admit it, they will see what they can do to him.

The palace guards who were searching were about to reach the person who poisoned the person. He pretended to be calm and appeared not to be afraid of anyone's inspection.

After all, he didn't have any poison on him.

The palace servant searched his body with one hand and found something suspicious.

"What is here? Take it out for me." the palace servant shouted.

His face changed. Oh no, he was going to be discovered.

He flattered, "Sir, this is the medicine I take when I'm sick."

The palace servants quickly captured him, making him unable to move, and took the medicine from his arms.

He quickly handed the medicine to Doctor Wen, who smelled it and confirmed that it was indeed the medicine.

He came before Emperor Hui and reported the situation to him.

"Your Majesty, this medicine is exactly what I gave you."

Emperor Hui nodded and asked the guards to bring the person who poisoned the food over.

Soon, the guards brought him over and made him kneel on the ground.

The man was not convinced and shouted, "Your Majesty, this is unfair. I was not poisoned. I didn't take the medicine because I felt something was wrong. Please look into this matter."

Emperor Hui sneered, "Humph, among so many people present, you are the only one who is not poisoned. Didn't you know it was poisonous in advance, so you didn't inhale it?"

"If you tell the truth, I can leave you with an intact body. If you dare to lie, you'd better think about it carefully."

Hearing this, he couldn't help but shudder.

Originally he was just a small servant. Before coming to Nanzhao Kingdom, he received a secret order from General Cang Yan and was ordered to poison the place at the Full Moon Banquet.

He has elderly parents and young children to take care of. It’s okay for him to die, because his elderly mother at home is still waiting for him to return.

After weighing the pros and cons, he thought it through. Anyway, General Cang Yan could protect himself, and his words were of little importance. In order to save his own life, he would be sorry to the general.

He paused and said, "Your Majesty, I will tell you everything. It was our General Cang Yan who gave me the medicine."

"He said if I could do this for him, he would ensure my future."

It turned out to be like this, Cang Yan is so hateful.

Thinking that they almost lost their lives because of him, everyone wanted to catch him and kill him.

After hearing that he had confessed everything, Cang Yan flew into a rage, his face ferocious, as if he wanted to bite him.

"Your Majesty, I don't know this person at all. This is a complete frame-up."

He then walked up to the man and slapped him, but when he was about to continue, he was stopped by the guards.

Seeing Cang Yan eager to clear himself, Emperor Hui knew that this was true.

It seems that things are just as Yan'er said. Cang Yan instructed others to poison in order to put the blame on their Nanzhao Kingdom.

He said sarcastically: "General Cang Yan, the facts are in front of you, and you still want to deny it?"
