Chapter 1671 This poison was used by him
"Is Your Majesty willing to tell me?"
“…”
Zhu Feng was silent for a while, then raised his head and looked at her, his eyes flickering slightly, but he did not mean to resist talking about this topic.
But it seems a little difficult to say.
After a long silence, he stretched out his hand and put it around Nan Yan's slender waist. Nan Yan was carried over by him and sat in his arms. Fortunately, the chair was wide enough, and the two of them leaning on it were not crowded, but full, giving people a sense of fulfillment.
Nan Yan felt that something seemed to have touched the depths of Zhu Feng's soul again.
His old injury—
She did not ask any further questions and just lay quietly in his arms, as if a little girl was holding her favorite doll and could get some support and comfort. Zhu Feng was holding her, half of his face buried in her shoulder, breathing in the scent that belonged to her, and finally relaxed a little.
He said, "I know that kind of poison."
“…”
"If it is really what Wang Baizhi and I guessed, I know."
"What is it?"
"Originally it had no name, but for convenience, the people who used it gave it a nice name, 'Wild Goose Passes Without a Trace'."
"The wild geese pass by without leaving a trace?"
"That's right," Zhu Feng said sullenly, "This kind of medicine is used by the Imperial Palace to deal with people who cannot be kept alive, nor can they be dealt with publicly."
Nan Yan felt that he originally wanted to say "criminal", but he seemed unable to say the word "criminal".
She frowned.
In fact, after being in the palace for so long, she certainly knew that there were too many shameful places, shameful people and things in the palace. Even at this moment, the emperor who was holding her in his arms, his life experience was also shameful.
Some shameful things must be dealt with by shameful means.
Such poison...
Zhu Feng continued, "This kind of poison, after being used, will make it impossible for people to detect the poisoning. It is often used to grant death."
“Death sentence…?”
Hearing these two words, Nan Yan's breathing quickened.
You know, to grant death... no one else can grant death to others.
In the whole world, there is only one person who can sentence someone else to death.
It’s the emperor!
However, during the years since Zhu Feng ascended the throne, he had been by his side almost all the time and had never seen him execute anyone. When he wanted to kill someone, he usually did it in a fair and aboveboard manner, even making a big fuss throughout the city and making it known to the world.
Could it be——
Feeling Nan Yan's body twitch slightly, Zhu Feng's more dull voice sounded behind him.
"Emperor Gao..."
“…”
"He used this poison."
Nan Yan wanted to look back, but for some reason, she couldn't bear to do so.
Especially listening to Zhu Feng's voice, it seemed to be completely hoarse, just like Li Lai's voice whose throat was damaged by smoke.
She whispered, "Emperor Gao, who has ever been killed with this kind of poison?"
Zhu Feng said solemnly, "In the fifth year of Xingwu, General Lan Shi was killed."
"Lan Shiming?!"
Hearing this name, Nan Yan was stunned.
Anyone who was a member of the Great Yan Dynasty knew that he was a great contributor who had helped Emperor Gao conquer the world. After the founding of the country, Emperor Gao relied heavily on him and gave him high positions and generous salaries, making him the most powerful official in the country.
However, everyone is also very sorry that he died young.
It is said that he fell seriously ill, and Emperor Gao even visited him in person and gave him a goose cooked by the imperial kitchen.
Such honor and favor are truly rare.
However, he eventually became seriously ill and passed away not long after.
Nan Yan said: "He is not——"
Having said this, he paused.
