Does having a lot of money lead to a good fate, or does a good fate bring wealth? Qin Kour often wondered if she and that monstrous man had chosen the wrong questions when they were reincarnated, c...
Hu Qianyu arranged for the grand ceremony to be held at Tongxi Palace tomorrow.
Once inside, the eunuch told Qin Kou'er to make her own arrangements.
After thanking her, Qin Kou'er began preparations.
Not only are the palace rooms spacious, but most importantly, it has a particularly spacious courtyard filled with flowers.
Qin Kou'er stood at the door, carefully observing everything in front of her.
"What's wrong, Master? Do you think this place is inappropriate?" Hai Tian and Qin Kou'er came over to oversee the transport. Seeing the slight seriousness on Qin Kou'er's face, he asked with concern.
Qin Kou'er shook her head slightly: "Hu Qianyu is a meticulous person; who knows what kind of trouble she might leave us with tomorrow! Have our people stop moving things and search the entire area around this palace thoroughly, looking for any hidden passages, secret rooms, or any other strange or illogical places. Remember, look carefully. Just in case we're caught off guard tomorrow!"
Hai Tian nodded, and then immediately arranged for his men to investigate.
Soon, everyone had finished checking. Hai Tian walked up to Qin Kou'er and whispered, "Sect Master, the place is clean enough, nothing special. However, there seems to be something wrong with the flowers in this courtyard."
Qin Kou'er immediately turned to look at Hai Tian, "What's the problem?"
Hai Tian pointed to two clusters of flowers that weren't very noticeable but bloomed exceptionally beautifully and said, "Master, look at these two clusters of flowers. Don't they look a little unfamiliar to you?"
Qin Kou'er looked at it, and after a long while, she really couldn't remember the name. She nodded and said, "It does look very unfamiliar. It doesn't seem to be from our Central Plains! I've never seen it before!"
Hai Tian nodded. "These aren't originally from our area, so of course you've never seen them before. I saw these two things at sea in a very small country. One is called 'Seeking Joy Grass,' and the other is called 'Joy Grass,' together they're called 'Seeking Joy Grass'! Just like their names suggest, these two things have no effect on their own; they must be put together to work. Moreover, they're ineffective under bright sunlight. Their medicinal properties are only released when they come into contact with water. This 'Seeking Joy Grass' is the local deadly aphrodisiac, and that small country uses it to make money. However, I never imagined they would appear in the palace. If you say this wasn't arranged by someone, I simply don't believe it!"
Qin Kou'er looked at the two blooming flowers and couldn't help but smile coldly. Hu Qianyu definitely knew; she left such a subtle thing to harm someone. If Hai Tian hadn't seen it today, who knows what kind of trouble would have occurred in the end.
Qin Kou'er sighed deeply and continued to ask Hai Tian, "Is there an antidote or a preventative measure for this?"
Haitian grinned wickedly. "Of course I know! Others may not know, but I do! That idiot Haiti tried it out of curiosity back then, and in the end, it was the local shaman who told me that all I had to do was eat a whole snake gallbladder. It can not only prevent poisoning, but also detoxify! If Haiti hadn't eaten the snake gallbladder that time, he would have died from exhaustion!"
Qin Kou'er nodded, "Give everyone who came here a snake gall tomorrow! I don't care if others get poisoned, but at least our people absolutely cannot embarrass themselves tomorrow!"
Hai Tian nodded, and then muttered, "Whoever put this thing here is truly wicked!"
Qin Kou'er thought to herself, a wicked smile playing on her lips. If Hu Qianyu behaved herself tomorrow, she would let her off the hook. But if she dared to play dirty tricks behind her back, she would give her a big surprise that she would regret for the rest of her life.
Seeing that there was nothing else around, Hai Tian whispered to Qin Kou'er, "Master, can we unload our things now?"
Qin Kou'er waved her hand and whispered, "Don't you think there's a problem? Tomorrow is such a grand event, and we've been delivering these things, yet we haven't even had a single eunuch in charge. Do you know that if no one is in charge, and something happens to the embroidery, it will all be our fault? So, go to the door right now and see if there are any eunuchs there?"
Hai Tian nodded, quickly ran to the door to look around, then frowned and shook his head at Qin Kou'er.
The people in this palace are so rude! It's strange that no one cares about such a large group of people.
Qin Kou'er smiled coldly; this must be another trick Hu Qianyu had arranged for her.
This thing is left here, and no one in the palace is going to take it. If she finds someone to destroy it all, who will be able to explain it to the Emperor tomorrow?
Hmph, this woman is really vicious. She only exchanged a few words with the Emperor, and she's already causing so much trouble. If she actually slept with the Emperor, wouldn't she kill his whole family?
Qin Kou'er was somewhat angry, because this incident reminded her of the situation the Empress had faced back then. Therefore, no matter what, she was determined to have a good fight with Hu Qianyu tomorrow.
Qin Kou'er waved to Hai Tian, and Hai Tian quickly ran back.
"Go, run to the yard right now and shout that there's an assassin! Shout it loudly, make sure everyone shouts!"
Hai Tian was startled, glanced around and then looked at Qin Kou'er: "Your Highness, is it alright to call me that? This is the inner palace, after all!"
Qin Kou'er glared at him, annoyed. "This is someone else's inner palace, but it's our den of dragons and tigers! If we want to get out unscathed, we have to make them suffer like they're dying! Hurry up and take some people to shout, stop dawdling!"
Hai Tian always carried out Qin Kou'er's orders immediately. Seeing Qin Kou'er's instructions, he didn't care about anything else, called two brothers and ran to the courtyard gate, shouting at the top of his lungs that there were assassins!
