Chapter 164 Huo Xingzhi Deposed the King of Qi
Su Yuheng suddenly stopped and heard Su Yanqiu's voice coming from behind him.
"Didn't Huo Xingzhi tell you that you wouldn't live past eighteen?"
Su Yuheng slowly turned around and saw Su Yanqiu grinning at him.
"It would be great to drag you into hell with me."
"When you were two, your mother gave you a secret medicine. You wouldn't live past eighteen."
Su Yuheng raised the corners of his lips slightly and looked at Su Yanqiu coldly.
"Can't live past eighteen? That's still longer than you."
She turned around and left the Yanjing government office without looking back.
The poison in Su Yanqiu's body was developed by her personally. There is no antidote, and it will not take effect until two days later.
Even if Duke Gao allowed him to fake his death and escape, he would still be dead if he got out of the prison.
Now she has rescued her brother and protected her sister, the only one she hasn't seen is her mother.
As long as the enemies are dead and the family is safe, that's enough.
She no longer expects to live a hundred years in this life.
…
On the other side, after the King of Qi entered the Shen family on the pretext of visiting Old Madam Shen, he instructed the black-clad guards to search all the courtyards of the Shen family.
There was no trace of Shen Tingzhou, and no news of the prisoners.
The King of Qi could only find an excuse to say goodbye to Old Madam Shen and hurriedly leave the Shen family.
When Shen Wan and Prince Rui arrived, Prince Qi had just come out of the palace with his guards.
Seeing Shen Wan and Prince Rui coming, Prince Qi raised a cold arc at the corner of his lips.
"Where did Huai Jin and Miss Shen go? Why did they come back so late?"
Prince Rui sneered, "Isn't it good to be this late? It gives you a chance to find someone."
"You're disappointed, aren't you? You didn't find the person you were looking for."
The King of Qi's expression changed, and he said coldly: "It seems you know?"
"Huai Jin, I have something to advise you. Don't become my enemy, or you will regret it."
Prince Rui sneered, "There's something I want to tell my brother, don't shoot yourself in the foot, or you'll be doomed."
Prince Rui said this coldly, and walked into the mansion with Shen Wan.
"What's going on?" Shen Wan asked Commander Wu.
Commander Wu said, "The King of Qi's men inspected the palace and then left."
Shen Wan sneered: “It seems that Heng’er is right.”
Prince Rui looked at her and said, "I have just sent a message to Prince Li. He should send people to strengthen the protection of Shen Tingzhou."
Shen Wan nodded: "Yes."
After the King of Qi left the Shen family angrily, he got on a carriage and headed straight for the Qin envoy's post station, but he didn't notice that there was a man in black following behind the carriage.
The man in black saw the King of Qi wearing a bamboo hat and hurried into the envoy's post station, then turned and walked towards Huo Xingzhi.
"What's going on?" Huo Xingzhi stood in the dense forest.
Bai Ze said: "It is indeed the King of Qi."
"Your Majesty, would you like me to go and listen to what the King of Qi, the Third Princess of Qin, and the Second Prince are talking about?"
Huo Xingzhi nodded: "Yes."
After Bai Ze left, he entered the envoy's station directly from the west and squatted behind the rooms of the second prince and third princess of Qin.
After a while, footsteps were heard coming from the side room, accompanied by the subtle sound of tea brewing.
The third princess of Qin put down the teacup in her hand and looked at the King of Qi who came in.
"Long time no see, you finally came."
The King of Qi walked to the third princess of Qin with an expressionless face and sat down opposite her, his eyes fixed on her.
"It seems that the Third Princess is very interested in the deal proposed by this king."
The third princess said, "If you are not interested, I will not send a message to you."
She picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea for the King of Qi, and said meaningfully: "Your Highness, don't forget that the blood of our Qin country flows in your body. You are a Qin person."
"My second brother and I came here this time for two reasons. One is to help you ascend the throne, and the second is to bring the Prime Minister's daughter, Su Yuheng, back to Qin."
The hand holding the teacup froze, and the King of Qi looked at the third princess in disbelief.
"You said Su Yuheng is the daughter of the Prime Minister of Qin?"
The third princess smiled and said, "That's right."
The King of Qi sneered and said, "So, she is also from Qin."
"Since she is from Qin, I can help you take Su Yuheng away."
"As for the throne..."
"Now that His Majesty the Great Yan intends to make me the crown prince, I don't need you and the Second Prince to do anything. I just need you to do one thing."
The third princess asked, "What's the matter?"
The King of Qi said, "In a few days, King Rui, King Li, and I will be heading to the border. I originally wanted to plant gunpowder on the way to the border to kill King Li and King Rui, but unfortunately, the gunpowder manufacturing failed."
"I've heard that your Qin State is best at Gu magic. If we use Gu to kill Huo Xingzhi and King Rui on the way to the border, then the Great Yan Empire will be ours. What do you think, Third Princess?"
The Third Princess said, "This is a very good idea, but our Qin State wants more than this. I'm afraid we'll have to wait until you ascend the throne to discuss what else we want."
"In the next few days, I would like to ask His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi to reveal Su Yuheng's identity to His Majesty the Great Yan."
"The Emperor of Great Yan will definitely ask Prince Li to divorce her. Then my brother and I will find a way to take her away to Qin."
The King of Qi stood up and said, "Okay, this is settled. Princess Three, please keep it a secret."
After the King of Qi left, Bai Ze also turned around and left, telling Huo Xingzhi what had happened.
Huo Xingzhi raised his eyebrows, and a cold arc appeared at the corner of his lips.
“Heng’er is General Shen’s daughter. What relationship does she have with the Prime Minister of Qin? It’s ridiculous.”
His eyes dimmed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "Follow me, and get on the carriage of the King of Qi."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
It was getting dark.
After the King of Qi came out of the envoy post station, he boarded a carriage and headed straight for Yanjing City, but he didn't notice that Huo Xingzhi's carriage was following behind him.
After the carriage had traveled for some distance, the King of Qi felt something was wrong.
As he opened the carriage curtain, a long arrow flew through the air and shot straight at his forehead.
The King of Qi dodged to the side, and the long arrow hit the beam of the carriage opposite.
The guard's voice came from outside: "Your Highness, someone is chasing us."
The King of Qi shouted angrily, "Hurry up! Don't stop for me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, another long arrow shot in and directly knocked the black-clad guard off his horse.
The horse roared violently. Seeing the situation, the King of Qi rushed forward, grabbed the reins and forced the horse to stop.
But before he could catch his breath, another long arrow shot from not far away, and the long arrow shot towards his chest like lightning.
He was unable to dodge and the arrow cut the flesh on his right arm.
At the same time, countless black-clad guards from Prince Qi's palace hurried over.
Bai Ze whispered to Huo Xingzhi.
"Your Highness, the secret guards from Prince Qi's Palace are here."
Huo Xingzhi raised his eyebrows, held the longbow in his hand, moved the arrow tip down an inch, and aimed directly at the King of Qi's crotch.
"The last one."
"Swish!" The silver arrow was as fast as lightning. The King of Qi couldn't dodge it in time and the arrow hit his hip directly.
The huge pain swept over him, and he couldn't help but scream.
Just when he was about to stretch himself to see who it was, Huo Xingzhi's carriage had already gone far away.
"Hurry... hurry and call the doctor!"
"Don't let Father know!"
