Chapter 42 My life has always been in my own hands

Cheng Jin nodded slightly, indicating that Xiao Shunzi could come forward to serve.

Xiao Shunzi was really not afraid at all. He bent his waist and approached Chu Chengye's bed straightly, without showing any different expression on his face.

Cheng Jin watched carefully from the side, as if to find out something, but he didn't expect that Xiao Shunzi was brave but couldn't let anyone catch him at all.

Xiao Shunzi walked to Chu Chengye's bed and carefully helped Chu Chengye change the quilt on the bed.

Cheng Jin watched with bated breath, fearing that Chu Chengye would not be able to pretend and be seen by others.

But Chu Chengye's pretending was too real. Except for breathing, there was no difference between him and a dying person.

If Cheng Jin hadn't known it in advance, she would really doubt whether Chu Chengye was really dead.

Chu Chengye closed his eyes tightly, his face was pale, and there was blood on his neck as if he had just vomited. His lips were pale without a trace of blood. He looked like he was deeply poisoned.

[He looked like he was asleep, but he had actually been gone for a while.]

When Xiao Shunzi was about to change Chu Chengye's clothes, he showed a bit of nervousness.

But it was not fear, but excitement and joy.

He had suffered in the palace for so many years, and finally got a chance to serve Chu Chengye closely. Even if it was just to bring tea or water, it was a good opportunity for him to take revenge. What

Xiao Shunzi said to Cheng Jin was not false. When he first entered the palace, he was indeed humiliated, and it was indeed because Chu Chengye couldn't stand it that he called him to work by his side.

But what does it matter?

Can Chu Chengye wipe out the blood feud just by doing this one good deed?

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

In Chu Chengye's eyes, the lives of these people are like ants. He can kill them if he wants, or chop them up if he wants. He has never regarded them as human beings.

He just said a few words that day, and his fate was turned upside down.

Xiao Shunzi looked at Chu Chengye lying on the bed and felt happy in his heart.

So what if he is the emperor? So what if he is the emperor? He is still going to die in his own hands.

His sister, who is only eighteen years old, can finally close her eyes in the underworld.

Thinking that she was about to reach the age to leave the palace, but was suddenly executed by Chu Chengye, it was obvious that they could stay together happily as a family after her sister left the palace, but this tyrant dealt with all the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace, separating the two siblings who depended on each other forever.

How could Xiao Shunzi not hate? He voluntarily purified himself and entered the palace, just thinking that one day he could kill Chu Chengye with his own hands.

Now he has done it.

He listened to the adult and put the poison in Chu Chengye's tea.

Chu Chengye's cup of water has been in the hands of countless people, and it is impossible for him to be traced back to him.

Even if he is found out, what does it matter? Once Chu Chengye dies, he is not afraid of being cut into pieces.

The tyrant is now on the verge of death, and he is afraid that he will die soon.

Xiao Shunzi stared at Chu Chengye's slow and difficult breathing, and the hatred in his eyes could no longer be suppressed.

Since he was going to die soon, he might as well give him a quick death.

After Xiao Shunzi changed Chu Chengye's shirt, he casually sprinkled the poison that had been hidden on his fingertips into Chu Chengye's mouth and nose.

Chu Chengye smelled a strange smell on Xiao Shunzi early in the morning, just like the smell in the tea that day.

But the smell was stronger, obviously the dose was larger.

He held his breath for a while, just to see what Xiao Shunzi was going to do.

Sure enough, Xiao Shunzi wanted to kill him.

Knowing Xiao Shunzi's intention, Chu Chengye stopped pretending and directly grabbed Xiao Shunzi's hand, and with all his might, he broke his poisoned hand.

The eunuchs in the room were frightened to see Chu Chengye suddenly come back to life and fled.

Xiao Shunzi's forehead was sweating from the pain and he couldn't even say a word to beg for mercy. He just looked at Chu Chengye with doubts and confusion.

"Aren't you going to die of poison?"

Chu Chengye sneered, with murderous intent in his eyes, "You want me to die? Humph, do you have such ability? "

Xiao Shunzi realized that he had been tricked at this time, and he only felt regret in his heart. How could he be so careless?

Now his sister's revenge has not been avenged, and he has died in vain.

But it is better to die, so that he does not have to serve Chu Chengye every day. He has done many evil things, but he enjoys the glory and wealth that no one in the world can match

. It just makes people feel disgusted.

Xiao Shunzi knew that his affairs were exposed, but he was not panicked. He smiled fearlessly.

"Of course, I don't have this ability, but the emperor has done many evil things. If I can't kill the emperor, I am afraid that someone else will want to kill you."

"If I die, the things that the emperor did will be wanted by the next person, and the next person will also want to kill the emperor."

"God, open your eyes! I hope this tyrant will die miserably! "

After saying that, Xiao Shunzi struggled back and forth like a madman.

Chu Chengye raised his hand and pinched Xiao Shunzi's throat with an arrogant expression.

"I never believe in God, I only believe in myself, and my life has always been in my own hands."

"If God really opens his eyes, he will bless me for thousands of years."

Chu Chengye just glanced at the Xiao Shunzi in front of him, without even giving him a straight look.

If Chu Chengye didn't want to know where he got this strange poison from the northern border, he would not even look at Chu Chengye even if he died in front of him.

Chu Chengye slowly tightened his palm with a threatening look, "I only give you one chance, who gave you the poison, who is the person behind you? "

Xiao Shunzi stared at Chu Chengye meaningfully, "It was every soul in this world who died because of the emperor who instructed me to do this."

"You don't repent!"

"I've already given you a chance."

Chu Chengye pinched Xiao Shunzi's neck tightly. If he used a little more force, Xiao Shunzi's neck would be broken.

But even so, Xiao Shunzi had no intention of saying anything.

Although Xiao Shunzi committed a capital crime by poisoning Chu Chengye, Xiao Shunzi had important evidence in his mouth. Although

Xiao Shunzi hated the emperor to the core, he was just an ordinary servant. He certainly could not contact people from Northern Xinjiang, let alone get the strange poison from Northern Xinjiang. There must be someone behind the scenes directing him.

Cheng Jin quickly stepped forward and grabbed Chu Chengye, "Your Majesty, no."

Chu Chengye had been blinded by anger, and only after Cheng Jin reminded him did he relax.

Cheng Jin stood by and tried to soften the tone for Xiao Shunzi, "Although the emperor is autocratic, everything he does is for the country and the people. Those he punishes have indeed committed serious mistakes, and he would certainly not wrongly accuse a good person."

"You also said that the emperor has done you a favor, so he would naturally not do such a thing as killing an innocent person. I believe there must be a reason for it."
