She was the youngest daughter of a century-old general's household, of noble status, cherished by her father and brothers, living a life of freedom and spontaneity. Yet, she was tragically murd...
This was Qin Wan's first time refining poison. She started refining it after Feng Ling left.
She once followed her master to learn medicine and vowed that these hands would only save people, not kill them.
Because she had a righteous heart, the master gave her the Poison Codex with confidence.
Now, she broke her vow.
She has died tragically, so how can she keep her promise?
Whether it was Feng Ling's reminder or Qing Yunyao's threat, they both touched her reverse scale. If she could poison her second brother today, she would poison her own parents tomorrow, so she had to fight back!
What did Qing Yunyao care about most in her life? What did she love the most? It was Chu Yan. Wasn't it that she went to such great lengths to kill her and replace her just to get Chu Yan?
I originally wanted to take it slow, but Qing Yunyao hurt her relatives, which is intolerable.
…
Qing Yue took all the poisons she had made in the afternoon with her, went back to the house, put on her night clothes, and put on a black scarf, revealing only a pair of extremely cold eyes.
She quietly left the palace and ran quickly towards Prince You's palace.
Prince You's Palace was built in the northwest, covering a large area and built against the mountain. However, because she was once Chu Yan's fiancée, she was very familiar with Prince You's Palace. She was used to doing whatever she wanted at that time and didn't know how many times she had climbed over the wall.
Qing Yue hid in a dark corner of Prince You's Mansion, looking at the courtyard wall with iron nails, and scenes of memories flooded into her mind.
Back then, when the iron nails had not been installed there, she jumped onto the wall, squatted there, and greeted Chu Yan, who was reading a book in the yard, with a smile.
Over the past six months, she has been deliberately trying to forget her past with Chu Yan and avoiding him, simply because the thought of him makes her even more heartbroken.
In fact, she hated Chu Yan more than Qing Yunyao.
Thinking of this, Qing Yue wiped away her tears, flew up, and fell silently into the wall.
The defense of Prince You's Mansion is very strong. If an assassin wants to enter, he will definitely not be able to leave. There are countless shadow guards in the dark. If Qingyue was not familiar with every tree and blade of grass in Prince You's Mansion, she would be discovered as soon as she entered the mansion.
Qing Yue was like a civet cat in the dark night. She carefully avoided any patrolling guards she met on the road. She went all the way to the yard where Chu Yan was, but there was no guard who was on duty as usual. Something was wrong.
Just as I was thinking this, I saw a maid walk out of the room under the corridor, holding a tray with gray undershirts and trousers on it.
Qing Yue's gaze paused slightly, she knew where Chu Yan was.
Bathhouse.
Qing Yue's eyes moved slightly, and she raised her foot and followed silently.
After entering Huaqing Courtyard, they saw six people standing guard in the courtyard. As soon as the maid entered the yard, a subordinate came forward to take the tray, knocked on the door and sent her in. The maid then turned around and left.
Qing Yue had always known that Chu Yan was a bit of a germaphobe and didn't have those weird habits. Many young masters from aristocratic families had maids when they were teenagers, but Chu Yan never had one. Chu Yan also told her that he would never have one in the future, and she would be the only one.
At that time, she believed him so much and never doubted him.
Once upon a time, she really thought she was the happiest woman in the world.
Thinking of this, her eyes felt a little sore again. Qing Yue forced back the tears, and when she opened her eyes again, there was only a coldness left.
She hid in the shadows, not breathing, observed the wind direction, took out a porcelain bottle from her body, and threw the powder inside into the wind. Then she waited quietly. After a while, she saw the guards falling one after another under the moonlight.
The medicine is working.
The next moment, two shadow guards appeared from the darkness. Before they could move, two silver needles suddenly shot out from the darkness, heading straight for their eyebrows.
The shadow guards were all very skilled in martial arts and were about to raise their hands, but for some reason their whole body suddenly became weak at that moment. They didn't even have the strength to open their mouths. They watched helplessly as the silver needle entered their eyebrows, cutting their throats and killing them instantly.
Qingyue walked out from the darkness.
There was a coldness in his eyes that he had never seen before.
She didn't want to kill innocent people, but if she didn't kill the shadow guard, she wouldn't be able to leave tonight. Having been with Chu Yan for so many years, she naturally knew that the shadow guards had a special way of communicating with each other. As long as a signal was sent, the other shadow guards would return no matter where they were, and then she would not be able to leave.
This was her first time killing someone.
She walked along the corridor in the shadows, as if she was about to be swallowed by the night. She stood in front of the door of the house and pushed it open with a creak.
The house was warm, and the outer hall was decorated very elegantly. There were precious murals hanging on the walls, and exquisite teapots and teacups were placed on the table. The undergarment that had just been delivered was placed on the table.
The inner room was filled with mist and the sound of water splashing could be heard.
"who?"
A hoarse voice with a hint of fatigue sounded.
"Brother Ayan."
Qing Yue lowered her voice and shouted, then walked into the inner room...
In the mist, she saw Chu Yan sitting in the pool, his back against the wall, his black hair draped behind him, revealing half of his body.
Chu Yan had already gone to bed, but he had a dream at night. He dreamed of the scene three years ago when Yue'er was in trouble and could not be woken up no matter what. Thinking about it still makes him feel scared and heartbroken. When he woke up, he was covered in cold sweat and wanted to take a shower.
He sat in the pool, thinking about Qing Er's poisoning today. The first person he suspected was Feng Ling. Even Yue'er guessed so. But after a conversation with Feng Ling at Qing's house, it seemed that it was not the case. When he was drowsy, his subordinates knocked on the door and brought in his clothes. Before he got up, he heard a slight sound of the door, and he spoke subconsciously, and then heard a voice of "Brother Ayan".
"Yue'er?"
A softness flashed across his cold eyes, but the next moment he suddenly remembered that Yue'er was staying at the General's Mansion tonight. When did she come back? He turned around quickly, and before he could react, he saw two silver needles thrust straight at his eyebrows. At the same time, he also met Qingyue's cold eyes behind him.
Chu Yan reacted extremely quickly. He retreated rapidly and at the same time, he waved the water in the pool and splashed it towards Qing Yue. The water was infused with internal force and was as intimidating as a knife blade.
Qing Yue was prepared. She jumped up the moment Chu Yan made his move and threw a porcelain bottle directly into the pool. A sweet smell immediately filled the air. Chu Yan felt as if he had lost all his strength in an instant and was about to fall into the pool.
But this man was so strong that murderous intent flashed in his eyes. He endured the weakness in his body and jumped out of the pool with a quick step. He grabbed Qing Yue's neck, but at the moment he rushed over, Qing Yue kicked Chu Yan hard in the chest in the air, and he fell heavily to the ground with a bang.
And Chu Yan could never stand up again.
He was poisoned.
Qing Yue walked towards Chu Yan step by step, looking down at him, took out a dagger from her sleeve, and pointed it at him...
"Chu Yan, have you ever thought that you would end up like this?"
