Chapter 149: She Just Wants the Prince to Suffer
She had to avenge these blood feuds!
Deng Youning shook off the hand held by Deputy General Tao and stopped running away.
"County Master, what are you going to do?"
Deputy General Tao immediately realized that Deng Youning wanted to take the risk.
"I have something I have to do. Please return to Taoxi Mountain as soon as possible and don't worry about me."
"Cousin, I'm giving this Huayan Army Token to you for safekeeping today. Trust me, I will definitely come back safe and sound!"
Deng Youning took off the ring and handed it to Deng Yan'an.
"Ning Ning, don't do anything stupid. We are safe now, but if you turn back to look for Jun Wenci, you will definitely be affected by the shaking and falling mountain."
"If you get hit, you'll be paralyzed if not dead!"
There was a hint of anxiety in Deng Yan'an's deep almond-shaped eyes.
When he took the ring that Deng Youning handed over, he clasped her wrist with his backhand.
"Listen, we want to deal with Jun Wenci, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future!"
Deng Youning shook her head in refusal.
He used his other hand to slowly pry open Deng Yan'an's hand that was holding his wrist.
"Cousin, even if we can't shoot him to death today, at least seriously injuring him can reduce the threat he poses to Cousin Han."
Although she prepared a disguise technique for Han Xian.
But if Jun Wenci investigates further, I'm afraid it will be difficult to fool the Han family.
It would be better to just let him get seriously injured so that he has no energy to pursue Han Xian’s matter!
Seeing that Deng Youning had made up his mind, Deng Yan'an said, "I am willing to sacrifice my life for you."
"I'll go with you."
Deng Youning refused again, "One of us has to go back and tell grandma that we are safe!"
She forced a smile at Deng Yan'an and Lieutenant General Tao, and took a bow and arrow from a female soldier as she left.
She leapt lightly, using her lightness skills to blend into the night.
At this time, Jun Wenci had just escaped the landslide caused by the explosion.
He finally stopped to catch his breath, and when he thought about the hundreds of soldiers he had brought with him, all gone in an instant, his face became so gloomy that it seemed as if ink could drip out of it.
Those clenched teeth seemed ready to burst out with powerful force at any time to express one's anger.
"Ci'er, what attacked us just now was a bundle of gunpowder."
"It seems to have descended from the top of the opposite cliff."
"It must have been some kind of mechanism to be able to accurately hit the lacquer jar from a height of dozens of meters."
Beside Jun Wenci, a man who looked very similar to Wu Yanei analyzed.
"Two months ago, Deng Ren returned to the Deng family and presented a cannon with a range of 100 miles to my father."
"If I'm not mistaken, the person on the cliff must have used this thing!"
Jun Wenci had already guessed who that person was.
Who else except the people from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion could get gunpowder and car cannons without any effort?
"Han Qiongyue?"
The man who looked like Wu Yanei narrowed his eyes and asked suspiciously.
Jun Wenci shook his head, "She is old and can't do it anymore. The one above is probably the Princess of Youning County!"
When Deng Youning was mentioned, the man's anger was visibly evident on his face.
He hammered the saddle hard, causing the horse to neigh in pain.
"How much of our hard work did that crazy woman destroy?"
"My Wu family and she will never reconcile!"
Thinking about how the Qi Yuntai, Crazy Lion Village, and gold mine, which they had painstakingly built up over the years with all their clan's strength, were destroyed by Deng Youning, the man was so angry that the veins on his neck bulged.
Jun Wenci felt the same way.
"Uncle, tell my younger uncle that those Nanxin people rescued by the Han family must not be left alive!"
Jun Wenci had murderous intentions towards the people in Nanxin Village.
Since there is no evidence that they are from Nanxin, just send a few people to massacre the village.
"Deng Youning, you destroyed my warriors. I must make you pay the price!"
His half-closed eyes opened instantly, revealing a fierce light.
However, Wu Jiadalang disagreed.
"But Ci'er, in the eyes of His Majesty and the world, that village is just an ordinary Dongji people."
"We have no evidence. If we kill him rashly, it will be difficult to explain to His Majesty. I'm afraid your uncle will..."
Before Wu Jia Dalang could utter the last three words, he was interrupted by Jun Wenci.
"The Wu family has so many descendants, it doesn't matter if he is missing one."
"But he is just the son of a lowly maid. I gave him the title of a yamen master and let him do whatever he wants for so many years. I don't owe him anything anymore."
"Besides, didn't Grandfather give birth to him to be my loyal servant?"
In Jun Wenci's eyes, he can use everyone in the Wu family at will.
To put it nicely, they are relatives; to put it bluntly, they are just tools for him to sit on the throne.
It is a tool and can be discarded at any time.
When Wu Jia Dalang heard his words, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, but it disappeared in just a moment.
He tacitly accepted Jun Wenci's order and randomly sent a few people back to deliver the letter.
They were originally talking while standing far away from the Canglong Guards. This time, after Wu Jia Dalang left, Jun Wenci was the only one left around.
It also made it easier for Deng Youning to shoot him.
Seeing that the opportunity was right, she drew her bow and shot an arrow, standing on a cliff dozens of feet away from them, and released a poisoned arrow straight at Jun Wenci.
The arrow was flying so fast that by the time the Canglong Guards and the Wu family reacted, Jun Wenci had already been shot and fell to the ground.
When the people of Canglong Guard saw a figure flash by on the cliff, they immediately picked up their bows and arrows and shot at her.
A rain of arrows hit Deng Youning at the same time. She drew out the sword given to her by Han Qiongyue to block it, but unfortunately her arm was scratched.
After quickly hiding in the woods and bandaging herself simply, she hurried back to reunite with Deng Yan'an and the others.
Unfortunately, Jun Wenci, who was also shot by an arrow, was not so lucky.
Although the accompanying military doctor was able to bandage his wounds, the toxins in the wounds were difficult to remove.
The arrow hit his chest right away. If it weren't for the armor that helped block it, he would have died!
"I am incompetent and cannot remove the poison."
"This poison attacks once a month. When it doesn't, Your Highness is doing fine as usual."
"When an attack occurs, the skin and flesh on my body feel as if they were hit by sticks, and my bones even feel broken."
Jun Wenci was lying on the ground, unconscious.
After hearing the symptoms described by the military doctor, he would be frightened into falling into coma again even if he was awake.
The flesh turned into mud and the bones turned into powder.
This was a poison that Deng Youning had tailor-made for him, allowing him to experience the feeling of being beaten to death with sticks in his previous life, but it would not take his life immediately.
She just wanted him to suffer.
There will never be relief!
"Then how can we detoxify?"
Wu Jia Dalang asked nervously.
Nothing can happen to him, as the Wu family is counting on him to be granted a title of nobility and become a prime minister.
"If you want to detoxify, you must find the person who poisoned you."
"Or... I have heard that Nan Xin once cultivated blood that can cure all kinds of poisons. If we can find those people with divine blood, perhaps Your Highness can suffer less."
This military doctor has some knowledge.
But he also said that it was divine blood, so how could it be so easy to find?
"Bring a team of people and catch up with Deng Youning."
Wu Jia Dalang repeated her name fiercely.
He knew that the arrow was shot by someone from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, and Deng Youning was the best at poisoning in the mansion.
We must capture her alive!
However, we have to find the person with divine blood and make preparations for both scenarios.
"Send people to Nanxin to find the person who carries the divine blood, no matter the cost!" Wu Jia Dalang gave the order.
