Chapter 190 Nanyue Mountains
He understood the principle that too much is as bad as too little. If he angered the prince, it was possible that both sides would be destroyed.
Among his brothers, few of them knew how to use their brains, they all did things with their hands and feet.
In the past few days, the prince's terribly gloomy face showed that he had almost endured it, so he had to think about whether to continue.
Moreover, after the four high officials were confiscated, the one who benefited the most was actually the emperor, as his treasury was filled.
Originally the emperor was the poorest, but now he is very rich. He must be happily looking at his wealth in his treasury.
As for him, he worked so hard but didn't get anything caught. It was a good thing for the emperor, and he even helped him clean up the debris. Oh no, it wasn't worth it for him.
Murong Yi thought about it for a while and decided to tell him in a few days. It just so happened that some officials had turned to him in the past few days.
Those officials had been following the prince for a long time, so of course it couldn't be discovered openly.
It's a good opportunity to take advantage of these few days to deal with them, reduce the prince's anger, and also give the emperor a hint that he has done so many things for him but has not received any appreciation.
He didn't believe that the emperor didn't know that this was his work, and he didn't know what he meant by the emperor being so silent.
He was not afraid of the emperor checking his strength, and he had to show some strength in front of the emperor when appropriate. If he did not have any strength, how could he sit on the throne of emperor.
It takes skill to sit on the throne, but you also have to have the ability to keep it. As the saying goes, it is difficult to conquer an empire, but even harder to keep it.
He was also not worried that the emperor would kill him. It was not so easy to kill him.
He was almost killed by Murong Yi in Yunwu Village because he did not bring enough men. Those fifty elite soldiers were not even a drop in the bucket in front of the highly skilled Murong Li.
It was different in the capital, which was his base camp and where he regained his confidence.
If the emperor wanted to kill him, he had to send out the army to suppress him. If he used secret guards to deal with him, it would be like sending food to his Mingyue Pavilion.
…
On the other side, Su Yue and four secret guards rode at full speed and soon arrived at Xichuan County. After entering the city, the group went straight out of Xichuan County without stopping for a quarter of an hour.
Su Yue didn't want General Yun to find out that something had happened to Murong Li, so as to avoid any more trouble. She also remembered that there was a deeply infatuated Yun Yan here.
However, when passing through Xichuan County, she wrote a letter and asked a secret guard to deliver it to the head of the Qi family, asking the head of the Qi family to manage the Wuhu Trading Company and the Sihai Money House.
As for the division of profits, she did not mention a word, but she did mention that Murong Li was poisoned and that now she was taking him to find an antidote.
Su Yue had her reasons for doing this. First, she wanted to take the opportunity to test the character of the head of the Qi family, and second, his ability.
When they come back, they will see the results.
We will know whether it can be used at that time.
She was not worried that Sihai Bank and Wuhu Trading Company would fall into the hands of the Qi family master and try to swallow up their things here. She would let those people know why the flowers were so red.
Moreover, Su Yue could be sure that Murong Li was infected with the God-Eating Poison.
His physical condition is getting better day by day, but there is no sign of waking up.
If he was poisoned by the five poisons, then the five internal organs would be damaged, but the brain would not be injured. There should be signs of waking up, but there were none at all.
Brain damage cannot be diagnosed by taking the pulse, and her mental power does not have the ability to see into a person's brain.
Therefore, the antidote must be found as soon as possible without any delay. Even if the space has the function of detoxification, his brain will still be damaged to varying degrees over time.
By the time the poison is removed, he will become a fool.
The antidote to the five poisons is the five-colored fruit, which may grow in the Nanyue Mountains of Nanfeng Kingdom.
Su Yue wanted to look for them. Besides, An Yi had asked the secret guards to look for the Soul-Returning Grass and the Five-Colored Fruit, but they had not received any information. This was similar to her previous guess. The possibility of these two medicines existing in the world was very small, almost zero.
Su Yue and his group left Xichuan City and found a place outside the city to rest and wait for the secret guard to come back.
The secret guard quickly caught up with them and handed a letter to Su Yue.
"Madam, this is a letter from Patriarch Qi to you. He said please don't worry."
Su Yue nodded and immediately opened the letter to read. The letter was written by the head of the Qi family. He meant that she should not worry about taking Murong Li to find the antidote. He would definitely try his best to do the things entrusted to him and would never let her down.
His words were very sincere and he was very worried about Murong Li. At the end, he wrote that he hoped he would recover soon and he was waiting for them to come back.
Su Yue didn't feel much emotional after reading it. One letter couldn't clearly tell the whole story of a person. She put the letter into her space, then told everyone to leave quickly and hurry on their way.
Among the secret guards this time, there was a female secret guard who was the best in both lightness and martial arts.
So the female secret guard carried her on her back all the time.
The group of five quickly left Northwest County. After coming out, they made some modifications and rushed towards the direction of Nanfeng Country.
On this day, the group came to the border between Xifeng Kingdom and Nanfeng Kingdom. Blocking the way here was an endless mountain range, and at the foot of the mountain range was a large village.
Go through this village into the mountains, and then through the mountains into Nanfeng Country.
The Nanyue Mountains are located in the south of Nanfeng Country. It is a tropical rainforest and the most primitive forest. It is a hundred times more dangerous than Hutouling.
The place was filled with miasma and poisonous substances everywhere. People could not enter at all, and even if they entered, they could not walk.
Su Yue was not sure if she could get in, but she had to go in and take a look no matter what.
"Madam, what happened in this village? Do you want me to go in and investigate?"
When the five people were at the entrance of the village, sad crying sounds were heard from the village. There was more than one person crying, including men, women, young and old.
Su Yue shook her head: "No, let's go straight into the village."
Her spiritual power had already seen that many people had died in the village. They must have gone into the mountains to hunt for prey and were injured by wild beasts in the mountains. Some of their bodies were completely gone.
Su Yue was puzzled. The people in this village didn't look like they had no food to eat, so why would they go into the mountains to hunt at this time?
"Okay, let's go." An Yi said as he walked ahead.
When we entered the village, we saw that many villagers had white banners hanging in their homes. Some had coffins, while others did not.
When some villagers saw them come in, they didn't bother to care about them as strangers, and just thought they were going into the mountains to hunt.
"Old man, what are you doing?" Su Yue saw an elderly man coming out with a sad and indignant look on his face, so she stepped forward and asked.
The old man glanced at them and asked, "Are you also going into the mountains to catch tigers?"
"Catching tigers?" Su Yue was puzzled. How could ordinary villagers have the ability to catch tigers?
The old man looked at them strangely and asked, "If you don't go into the mountains to catch tigers, then why do you go into the mountains?"
