Chapter 636 A chill on my back

…

On the other side, Liao Jiu took out the evidence they had found one by one and accused Eunuch Si.

Eunuch Si sneered and refused to admit it.

Now seeing Xuan Huang wake up, he looks in good spirits, very different from the man who was as thin as gold paper and almost died just now.

Eunuch Si cried out in injustice, "Your Majesty, I am innocent! Your Majesty, please help me! Your Majesty, you are seriously ill, and Prince Xiaoxiang and his gang have ignored His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and are openly plotting a rebellion. I swore to defend His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but Liao Jiu and Jiang Lianzhu rushed me back and put the Baihua Tower hat on my head, hoping to frame me and allow their evil scheme to succeed..."

Xuan Huang sat back in his original position at the top.

The eldest princess carefully helped him sit down. The eldest princess now trusted Dabao very much. Jiang Lianzhu didn't let her be around when she was treating the patient, so she stood outside the screen. As soon as Xuanhuang was sent out, she immediately came over to serve him.

Wang Ming kept winking at her, but she ignored him.

After going through a series of thrilling experiences, she understood one thing: only Xuan Huang could truly protect her. If something happened, no one could protect her.

Including Wang Ming, who always swore and spoke nicely.

She wasn't trustworthy at all just now, hiding behind others. She even said that she personally brewed the tea that was suspected to be poisonous...

Pulling all the hatred onto her, is this something a person who claims to protect her all his life could do?

The person who loves her the most is always her father.

Even her cousin Dabao and others, people she disliked, never took the initiative to harm her. Instead, they helped her save her father.

At the critical moment, the Empress and the Crown Prince only asked their father for the throne. No one cared about her or their father's life or death. Only her brother Dabao wanted to save Emperor Xuan sincerely, just like her.

"Father, you must be well..." The eldest princess wiped away her tears and encouraged Emperor Xuan, as if to encourage herself.

Xuan Huang patted the back of her hand to comfort her.

Only then did he look directly at Eunuch Si and the others.

The people from the Six Gates confronted the people from the Inner Guard Palace. Eunuch Si argued with a look of grievance and excitement on his face, while Liao Jiu looked indifferent and had a cold attitude.

Xuan Huang calmed himself down and said, "My dear ministers, I'm sorry that you were all frightened by my illness just now. I feel fine now..."

The ministers finally felt relieved.

Some people silently prayed, "Buddha bless you...God bless you with peace" or something like that.

Then, Xuan Huang looked at Liao Jiu, "Liao Jiu, you said that Eunuch Si is the owner of Baihua Tower. Do you have any evidence or witnesses?"

Liao Jiu replied, "The witnesses we found related to the Shamen County Escort Agency are currently being held at the Shamen County government office for further investigation. We at the Six Gates have left some people there. The weather is bad, so we can't bring them back to Beijing for the time being. We also have other documents and materials, which are on the large ship behind us. My humble servant and I returned early, and the journey was bumpy, so we haven't brought anything with us yet..."

Eunuch Si interrupted, "After all this talk, you actually have no evidence at all, relying solely on conjecture and slander! Liao Jiu, our family also claims that you and your wife are remnants of the Baihua Tower."

Tit for tat, neither side giving in.

At this time, Jiang Lianzhu came to the side of the War King.

As soon as he came back, the most important thing was to save Xuan Huang's life. Now he came to the side of the War King to exchange information.

King Zhan held the sleeping daughter in his arms. As soon as the couple entered the hall, they handed the sleeping daughter to King Zhan's arms.

Then, the couple went to do their business.

It is safest and most reassuring to let the War King help look after the child.

Other people are unfamiliar and are afraid of disturbing Nanbao's sleep, but Nanbao is familiar with the War King's aura and will not react.

Sure enough, she slept soundly in the arms of the War King.

Jiang Lianzhu came over, and Zhan Wang asked in a low voice, "Is what Liao Jiu said true?" "Yes."

"Then Sidu's situation makes sense. His martial arts have regressed significantly, most likely due to the backlash of the Mother Cauldron. Do you want me to take him down by force?"

Jiang Lianzhu thought for a moment and said, "No need. If we take him by force, he'll still make excuses. Let me think of a way."

Since his martial arts skills have declined significantly, he is definitely no match for her.

Then she should be able to succeed if she plays a little trick on him.

Sidu slapped her son Erbao while she was away, and she had to avenge him.

Arrest him by force, take him back to the cell and then conduct a private trial? That's too easy for him!

We must take advantage of this opportunity, when everyone is here, in public, to strip off his hypocritical face and expose his true colors, so that we can feel relieved.

While no one was paying attention, Jiang Lianzhu took out a small launching device and shot a tiny needle at Eunuch Si.

Veritaserum!

She hasn't used this thing in a long time.

Last time, the Eagle Lord refused to reveal the mastermind behind the plot, and Jiang Lianzhu also used it on him, but it had no effect.

The Eagle Lord was poisoned by the Zi-Zhu poison and was controlled by the Ma-Zhu. Even the truth serum didn't work.

The effectiveness of truth serum also depends on the body's resistance. For people with high strength, they may develop resistance and it may not be effective.

It is generally effective on people with weak mental strength, ordinary people, or injured and weak people.

Truth serum also has a certain impact on the body. It is generally only used on enemies, opponents, relatives and friends. It is rarely used and has certain sequelae.

Because it was rarely used, this thing disappeared from the arsenal for a while.

She discovered a pattern in her arsenal: the types and quantities of frequently used items would increase, such as medical equipment, food and drinks, etc.

Things that are not used frequently will decrease or even disappear.

This time she remembered the truth serum yesterday. While rowing on the river, she was bored and went to the armory to take a look. When she took out some food, she found that the amount of water and snacks had increased. The place where they were piled was where other items were placed before. Then she remembered where the truth serum was placed before. How come it disappeared?

When I consciously entered the armory again today, I found that the number of snacks was smaller and the truth serum was back.

I have long discovered that the armory has an intelligent optimization function. The number and variety of items that are used frequently will increase. Unexpectedly, the number and variety of items that are used less frequently will decrease and disappear.

She already has several drones that she used frequently in the early days.

Those untouched cold weapons, such as halberds, spears, and lances, all seemed to have disappeared.

Jiang Lianzhu felt that this was not a good idea. It would be better to diversify the items. If there were fewer items, they could accumulate them every day. If something was gone and they were needed again at a critical moment, it would be troublesome.

…

Eunuch Si only felt a chill on his back.

It felt like he was hit by some hidden weapon. He touched it with his hand, but didn't feel anything special.

This gave him a very bad feeling.

Then, consciousness began to blur.

Then Jiang Lianzhu heard a loud voice asking, "Eunuch Si, at this point, you still want to quibble and confess the truth!"
