However, the people around him became even more anxious when they saw that His Majesty didn't eat a single bite. Although they were sweating profusely, they didn't dare to be as reckless as last time.
“Why aren’t you eating yet…”
Then he winked at the person next to him.
"Have you gotten off yet?"
"This time, there's no chance of failure. To make up for the mistake last time, I've put in all sorts of dishes. I guarantee they'll be tasteless."
It's no use now. The key is that the emperor doesn't buy it. Besides, he has put the medicine in the heavy dishes. If the emperor doesn't eat it, then all the medicine he has collected will be wasted.
"By the way, what did you bet on?"
The one sitting on one side and just eating is the King of the North Sea.
Naturally, he had the right to come in a second time after the first time, and this time he still found the same place as the last time. Of course, there were obviously more people in the hall here.
"Of course he'll do whatever he doesn't want to see."
poison?
This is really creative. Once people get addicted, they will automatically introduce this thing without anyone telling them, and it will be at this time that the downfall of the entire Qin Dynasty can come into play!
"Everyone, I want to test your abilities this time. You have all been my right-hand men before, so of course you must have something I can trust."
He received news that the King of Beihai, who had released the tiger back to the mountain before, had sneaked into the palace again. As for whether he came to the hall to poison, he didn't know, and he was afraid that he would not be so bold as to do it directly in the hall.
If that's the case...
"Your Majesty, we are generally good at horseback archery and other skills. Your Majesty has no horses and no enemies on your side, so how can we express our gratitude?"
Some people really take this seriously.
After saying this, the emperor still sat there with an expressionless face, looking serious.
"After this piece is finished, the next round will probably be the finals for all of you talented people. Of course, there will be rewards for the winners, and I hope you will be able to innovate while enjoying the performance."
Xiao Chenzi's sharp voice was enough to spread throughout the entire hall, winding around and finally disappearing into the sky along the draft from the doorway.
The music was so beautiful, and since this man was a rare person who didn't love beautiful women, he couldn't take his eyes off it.
But he didn't show any expression, he just secretly drew out a knife.
Sure enough, something really happened.
This was just dancing, with everyone waving their sleeves and dancing gracefully. As the music started, the drama that followed became the climax of the entire dance, directly igniting the scene.
Then, the unknown person in the middle with a mask on his face raised his knife and flew over with a knife in his hand. Fortunately, Zhao Xin reacted quickly and raised his knife to fight back.
"interesting."
He raised his eyes slightly, not expecting this man to be so impulsive.
"You're too impulsive. This knife is like a piece of junk in your hands. Besides, it's a spiritual thing. Let it go back to where it came from."
Then he just moved his hand and the sword was bounced back directly.
"This sword has been with me for ten years. You make it sound like it was stolen. Emperor, aren't you mistaken?"
"I will be in charge of you for eight to ten years. If you still have any conscience, leave this sword where it is. As for why you haven't already, go and repent to the Mechanical Creation."
The man's face froze when he heard the name of the mechanical creation. He seemed puzzled as to why he knew about it. But then, his disbelief returned, and he launched a sneak attack, swinging the sword at him.
Unexpectedly, it fell steadily into Zhao Xin's hands.
"Since you are like this, you can leave."
Isn’t this sword the Moye that was created by the mechanism before?
Gan Jiang and Mo Ye are used together. I heard that there was a swordsman in the legend who sacrificed himself to obtain these two swords.
There is also a spirit in the sword.
The man also knew that he couldn't delay in this, but after he lost this thing, he was indeed a little helpless. If he had known earlier, he would have taken the sword and ran away. Going back before would have been a waste.
It was given away for free.
"Have you seen enough of this excitement? Can you please stand up and perform for me?"
There was complete silence below.
"In that case, General Zhao, you go first."
Zhao Shuangshuang guessed that the emperor would choose her first, but there was nothing she could do about it, since it was her own fault that she had to be chosen so easily.
After coming on stage, he raised the sword and performed a fancy show. Although it seemed to have no practical significance, the fancy moves really touched the emperor's heart.
"Not bad, reward."
Then the bill for twenty taels of silver was issued.
The more time went on, the more afraid the King of the North Sea became. If he pointed out something, he would be exposed. Besides, they were his own brothers, so how could they not recognize his face?
"Seeing that none of you have practiced, I'm tired and I'll go."
It is also possible that the King of the North Sea's prayers to God worked, and he missed the opportunity perfectly in this game. He did not come into contact with him at all, nor did he expose his identity.
Kill two birds with one stone.
But in the end the emperor still couldn't finish the hard dish.
But Dongfang smelled a very familiar smell on the ground. It was so familiar that he was enlightened as soon as he smelled it.
So familiar.
Wasn't this thing banned in Daqin? How come it appears here and some of it has been spilled?
So Dongfang went over and whispered a few words to the emperor, and after he finished speaking, his expression was almost frozen. He didn't expect this person to sneak in and poison him.
I'm afraid he doesn't know where he is waiting for him to admit defeat.
Damn it.
It's really not a good feeling to have the enemy in the dark while you are in the light.
"Send the Military Affairs Council over here. I'd like to know if this thing is the so-called poison. If it is... never mind. Let's stand here and test whether any of you have it."
It was a huge project to inspect so many dishes, and before the inspectors from the Military Affairs Office arrived, Dongfang smelled them one by one, and finally stopped at Zhao Xin's hard dish.
Wow, I have to say this guy is really brave and responsible.
How dare he?
So he just broke open the dish and saw the powder inside and knew what was going on. Zhao Xin just took a look and his expression immediately dropped to freezing point.
"Your Majesty, I checked, but this is the maximum dose."
The rest of the words were whispered secretly into the emperor's ear, which roughly meant that there was poison in it and if eaten, the person would surely die.
Even if you are not dead, you are probably not far from death. Look at this scene. If you really eat this thing... don't even think about it, it will be more painful than death.
"I never thought that someone would actually want to frame me, and their evil intentions are obvious!"
