Chapter 270 Why Not Use Poison

Concubine Shu was sent to the home of an official in Daxia and became their legitimate daughter. A year later, she entered the palace smoothly and became one of the concubines of the late queen.

Over the years, she has used every possible means and put in every possible effort to do many evil things, harming many innocent and not innocent people.

At first I was very scared and felt guilty.

For example, Concubine Chun and Concubine Xian, when they first entered the palace, they were good sisters...

But after killing so many people, it seems that all that’s left is numbness.

Concubine Shu sighed, looking at the chattering Madam Yang, listening to her words that were full of loopholes but made people yearn for it...

She seemed to be persuaded as well.

Nanny Yang dreams of returning to the State of Chu, and so does she.

Even though there may not be anyone waiting for them there, hometown is a magical place. No matter how much you have disliked it, no matter how far you go, it will always appear in your dreams at midnight.

A country road, a shabby house, and in the dream, the butterfly that can never be caught, the home that can never be returned, and the relatives who will not respond no matter how much you call...

"Queen, as long as we kill the dog emperor, Daxia will be in chaos. By then..." Nanny Yang's eyes were full of light: "When the Chu army attacks, we can go back. I really want to go back to my hometown. There was a tree that I planted with my father when I was young. It should have grown up now."

Concubine Shu didn't know what to say.

Now, it is difficult for her to say with certainty that what Nanny Yang said was wrong.

If that Xiaojiu could really help, their plan would go much more smoothly.

After all, I was still hoping for a lucky break.

I am really in a hurry...

"Okay, but you have to be careful."

During these long years, they have developed some true feelings for each other.

Madam Yang nodded: "It's okay. She is just a little palace maid. If she encountered such a thing, she would have been scared silly a long time ago. What's more, her brother is a hostage in our hands..."

Over the years, Madam Yang has manipulated too many girls like An Jiu, who were sent here by the Chu State with confused faces and innocent like blank sheets of paper. As long as they are guided well, they can become the most useful knives in their hands...

…

Following the contents of the note, An Jiu came to an abandoned palace.

She discussed it with the emperor and decided to wait and see what would happen.

There is no point in arresting a contact person.

But the contact person never showed up. An Jiu guessed that he might be secretly monitoring her. The emperor said that this might be a test to see if she had betrayed the State of Chu.

An Jiu pretended to be anxious and walked back and forth on the ground, looking at the door from time to time.

Still no one.

An Jiu began to observe the palace again. It seemed that no one had lived there for some time. The house was in a dilapidated state and there were weeds in the yard.

The emperor told her that this was where the previous emperor's virtuous concubine, who was also the mother of King Jing, lived. After her death, this place was sealed.

An Jiu didn't notice anything wrong.

After waiting for a while, still no one came. Seeing that it was getting late, An Jiu decided to leave.

She walked along the way she came. There was a very long palace road with walls on both sides, making it difficult to hide people. At this moment, a person came towards her and handed her a small bag. An Jiu didn't even get a clear look at what the person looked like before he turned a corner and disappeared.

An Jiu hid the cloth bag and took it back to her cabin before opening it.

There was a small bottle of medicine inside, which she was asked to secretly put in the emperor's diet.

Poisoning again?

Worried that there were still spies in Guanghua Palace, An Jiu stayed until night before arriving at Guanghua Palace, where the emperor and Jiang Sheng were both.

An Jiu asked anxiously: "Did you see who that person is?"

I asked the secret guards to follow me before I left.

The secret guards couldn't chase the emperor, but they could chase an ordinary palace servant. They found the person, who was just an ordinary eunuch who cleaned the palace. So far, they haven't found any contact between him and anyone.

Very cautious over there too.

An Jiu took out the medicine, and Jiang Sheng just smelled it and his face became gloomy.

“It’s that medicine.”

An Jiu looked at the emperor in confusion, and the emperor said, "This is the medicine that Prince Ruyang gave me back then."

It was a hallucinogenic drug that could make the emperor crazy.

An Jiu was surprised: "Why not just poison it?"

The hall suddenly became quiet.

Jiang Sheng looked at her with a complicated expression.

"Tsk tsk tsk, the living king of hell." Jiang Sheng sighed.

An Jiu "..."

She just thought that if she wanted to get rid of the emperor, wouldn't it be enough to poison him and let him die suddenly?

This is much easier. Why do you keep giving me this kind of medicine? It's risky and easy to be discovered.

【Hahaha. 】

An Jiu heard the emperor laugh.

【It's so innocent and cute. 】

The emperor smiled and asked, "Xiaojiu, do you think I am capable of sending someone to kill the Emperor of Chu?"

An Jiu thought it was possible.

Yeah, why not?

She was silent for a moment, and suddenly she figured it out.

It is okay for two countries to fight openly or secretly, but if you send someone to kill the emperor of the other country, what will happen is not chaos in the other country's court, but countless people who want to be emperor will fight you to the death under the banner of revenge for the previous emperor. If they win, they can take the throne rightfully.

Moreover, there are more countries in the East Continent. If you dare to kill the emperor of one country today, will you dare to kill the emperor of other countries tomorrow?

Then why don’t they unite and destroy yours first?

Therefore, when the Chu people wanted to kill someone, they had to take a roundabout way, such as making the emperor go crazy, and then causing chaos within Daxia itself, so that they could fish in troubled waters. Even if they were suspected, there would be no evidence.

An Jiu let out a breath and glanced at the emperor, who blinked at her.

An Jiu smiled.

Jiang Sheng was fed a mouthful of dog food and rolled his eyes countless times in his heart.

So annoying.

After they decided to hold back, Jiang Sheng couldn't wait to leave.

He was becoming less and less willing to come to Guanghua Palace.

As soon as Jiang Sheng left, the hall became completely quiet. Recently, Eunuch Li and Xiao Fuzi had not come in without permission, which made An Jiu feel embarrassed. Seeing that it was getting late, she decided to make the bed for the emperor and let him go to sleep first.

The emperor was sitting beside the desk, seemingly writing something.

【That's all.】

He put down his pen proudly. An Jiu was curious about what he had written to the tyrant and wanted to take a peek, but the emperor had already closed the note.

An Jiu curled her lips, who wants to watch it.

The emperor finally went to bed, but he still didn't sleep. He called An Jiu pitifully: "Xiao Jiu, I'm afraid of the dark, I dare not sleep alone."

An Jiu came over and knew that he was scheming, but still lay down next to him.

The emperor secretly took An Jiu's hand.

An Jiu's heart couldn't help but beat wildly. After a while, she turned her head to see that the emperor had fallen asleep. His breathing was steady, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

So An Jiu turned around and took a look at the note on the table...

He glanced at the emperor again.

I'm a little curious.

She just took a look...

Just take a look...
