"What did you say?" Bai Lingyu suddenly stood up, clearly astonished beyond measure.
"What's even more deadly is that the Empress Dowager has the late king's edict. If the emperor disrespects her, she can depose him with a single vote. The late king was a renowned war god, and the unification of the world was based on his efforts. He was deeply respected in the court."
"When the time comes, even the emperor will be deposed, and no one will be able to protect you and me. I'm sure the first thing the new emperor will do upon ascending the throne will be to kill us two vile concubines as a warning to others."
"No matter when or where, we must plan for ourselves. You and I are both in this harem, women of the emperor, yet we are stigmatized. Are we just going to sit here and wait to die?"
Mi Shan said coldly, looking at her, his dark eyes flashing with a clear, subtle light.
"You make a good point,"
Bai Lingyu seemed to be deep in thought, then pondered for a moment.
"If this news is true, I absolutely cannot allow the Empress Dowager's people to save Kong Wang."
Otherwise, we'll both be in even more trouble!
Without Li Shengyuan's protection,
With Kong Wang using all his abilities and having so many people helping him, if he wants to take her down, then she'll only have herself to wait for death.
Why not strike now, before Kong Wang has anyone to back him up, and secretly go to the jail and finish him off?
Bai Lingyu quickly understood the connection between the events and was about to set off almost immediately.
Just before setting off, I paused.
"Wait, is the Lord aware of such a significant matter? Should we inform him?"
Mi Shan frowned slightly: "Time is of the essence, and only you have the means to infiltrate the dungeon right now."
"This matter mainly concerns the fate of the two of us. Whether the Crown Prince knows about it or not is not the most important thing."
"You'd better hurry up and go. Kong Wang's magic weapon has been confiscated, so he's no match for you."
"Go ahead without worry, it will be too late if you go any later."
Bai Lingyu nodded, said no more, took a few light steps into the palace, and slammed the door shut.
A moment later, a snow-white, nimble fox darted out of the window.
They scaled the high wall and disappeared into the thick darkness.
Mi Shan watched the fox's retreating figure, frowned, pulled her pink gauze robe tighter around her, and walked away.
I hope her trip goes well.
There were hardly any guards at Yuqing Palace. When she arrived at the gate, the little eunuch was still dozing off. When she looked up, she saw that the Imperial Concubine was no longer swinging on the waterside pavilion.
"Your lady is sleepy and has already turned off the lights to go to bed. I hereby instruct you not to disturb her."
After speaking coldly, Mi Shan strode away, her long skirt trailing behind her as she crossed the threshold.
The young eunuch knelt and kowtowed, respectfully seeing Consort Mi Hui off.
Back to Jade Hibiscus Palace.
Mi Shan then began to devote himself to alchemy, taking out a small cauldron and placing it on the table.
Take out the medicinal herbs you bought from Uncle Liang and put them into the cauldron.
Cover it again, and drip blood from your fingertip.
A furnace for burning fuel.
Hopefully, this time, we can refine an antidote to alleviate the ten-day love poison of the Heart-Eating Gu.
...
On the other side.
The dungeon.
Endless darkness, with only a small square window letting in a few rays of light.
Kong Wang sat in meditation with his eyes closed.
There was an empty bowl and chopsticks and a chicken leg in front of him. When the jailer came to collect it, he saw that the rice had been eaten, but the chicken leg was still untouched.
He couldn't help but spit out a curse.
He grinned maliciously, picked up a chicken leg, put it in his mouth, and tore off a piece of meat.
He kicked Kong Wang with a bang.
"Tch! Stop pretending! You stinking monks. You have food to eat and you won't eat it! You monks really are vegetarians!"
"You'll be on the guillotine at dawn. You'd better eat your fill."
"I bet you've never eaten meat in your life. I'm giving you a chicken leg and you don't even know what's good for you. If you don't want it, I'll eat it myself."
Another jailer laughed as he watched the monk scramble to his feet, then put his arm around his colleague's shoulder.
"Hey, look at him! Forget about meat, I bet he's about to die and has never even tasted what a woman's pleasure is like!"
"What a waste of such delicate skin! If he weren't a monk, with that face and that refined, handsome air, he'd be incredibly popular with women!"
The two jailers stared greedily at Kong Wang, and as they talked, they suddenly had wicked thoughts.
He rubbed his hands together.
"Since there's no one else around, why don't we have some fun with him?"
"Are you crazy? This is a male!"
"Oh, what's the big deal? Apart from his slightly less-than-ideal physique, he looks no different from a woman."
Upon hearing this, the other one also wavered.
Kong Wang coldly raised his eyes, a look of disgust appearing on his handsome face, as if he were being smeared by something repulsive.
Just as the jailer grabbed his thin arms, one on each side, and dragged him to a corner.
"brush!"
"brush!"
The hearts of the two prison guards were ripped out from behind.
Blood was everywhere.
Bai Lingyu's furry hands, transformed into fox claws, grasped two still-beating, vibrant hearts in each hand, creating a stark contrast with her fair and lively face.
She smiled innocently, but her eyes held a bloodthirsty murderous intent as she picked up her heart and took a bite.
"Ugh. It stinks."
"It tastes awful."
His heart was crushed, and blood splattered onto Kong Wang's face, staining his white monk's robe with foul-smelling blood.
Kong Wang was pale, his pupils contracted and trembled violently, looking at her as if she were a ferocious monster.
"You...you killed them?"
