"Are you kidding me?!"
Xiao Jinghan threw the porcelain bottle in his hand onto the table and looked at the person opposite him with a gloomy face.
"What are you talking about, Your Highness?"
Gu Xiaoqiao scoffed, "Since this is a business, who would reveal their cards right away? I have to see the results I want with my own eyes before I can hand over the other half of the antidote."
Xiao Jinghan snorted coldly, "I don't care what you want them to do, but I warn you, don't try to play tricks on me. Otherwise, you will definitely not get any good results."
There was a heavy threat in his voice.
Upon hearing this, the smile on Gu Xiaoqiao's face instantly disappeared.
"I have no interest in teasing Your Highness. If not for Your Highness, who else could I prepare this antidote for..."
"you..."
Xiao Jinghan was choked by her and couldn't speak.
It took a while for him to squeeze out a sentence from his throat, "You'd better not play any tricks."
"Don't worry, I just hope Your Highness will not let me down. Your Highness, am I right?"
Gu Xiaoqiao's tone was very flat, as if he was just chatting about family matters, without a trace of emotion.
Xiao Jinghan glanced at the other person coldly, then turned away.
When Gu Xiaoqiao saw him leave, a sarcastic arc appeared on the corner of his mouth.
You still want to be the heir?
Dream on.
After Gu Xiaoqiao left, two figures slowly walked out of the private room next door.
"Let's do it."
"Yes, Prince."
…
After returning, Gu Xiaoqiao thought hard for two days about how to reasonably implicate Xu Jiaren. Before she could make a careful plan, she heard that Xu Jiaren was involved in the case of embezzlement by the Minister of Revenue.
Now that the truth has been revealed, the emperor is furious and has ordered a thorough investigation.
For a time, the entire court fell into panic. In order to protect himself, Xiao Jinghan did not hesitate to completely sever his relationship with Xu Jiaren.
But even so, Xiao Jinghan's power suffered a severe blow, because the more the corruption case was investigated, the more people were implicated, and it even involved a series of old cases, and the emperor was determined to order a thorough investigation.
Many of them were Xiao Jinghan's confidants, so the emperor took his anger out on Concubine Xuan.
Because of this incident, Xiao Jinghan was also stripped of his power and recuperated at home.
Xu Jiaren and others were even imprisoned and awaited their fate.
Lu Qingqing was afraid of being implicated, so she planned to sneak away on a dark and windy night. However, as soon as she walked out the back door, she was knocked unconscious by someone with a stick, put into a sack and carried away.
When Lu Qingqing regained consciousness, she was awakened by a cup of cold tea poured on her face.
“Mmm…Mmmmm!”
With a rag still stuffed in her mouth, she opened her eyes wide in fear and tried to struggle.
But the ropes that bound her hands and feet were too thick, and her struggles were completely ineffective.
"It's so noisy."
A voice of disgust came to my ears.
When she raised her head, she saw a woman in green standing beside her. Her face was covered with a veil, leaving only her eyes exposed, making her look extremely mysterious.
"Mmmm? Mmmm?" Lu Qingqing glared.
Gu Xiaoqiao smiled and said, "Then take a good look at who I am."
After saying that, she walked towards Lu Qingqing.
Then he squatted down to look at her at eye level, and kindly pulled out the rotten rag stuffed in her mouth.
Lu Qingqing gasped for breath and it took her a long time to return to normal.
"Who are you and what do you want to do?" Lu Qingqing stared at the strange woman in front of her warily.
"You really don't know who I am?"
Gu Xiaoqiao pulled off the veil on her face, revealing her true appearance.
"Cheng, Cheng Xiaoqiao!"
"Yes, it's me."
Gu Xiaoqiao opened her rosy lips slightly, smiling like a flower.
"Why did you arrest me?"
Lu Qingqing's heart began to beat violently.
"What do you think?"
"what you up to?"
"Lu Qingqing, since you like Xu Jiaren so much and were determined to marry him at all costs, why are you so eager to run away as soon as he gets into trouble?"
Hearing this, Lu Qingqing's eyes widened instantly.
"Who are you?"
"Who am I? Do you already have the answer in your heart?"
Gu Xiaoqiao smiled and reached out to pinch her chin, his eyes gradually becoming cold. "Do you think you can get away?"
"impossible!"
Lu Qingqing struggled desperately, "Aren't you dead?"
Her people clearly saw Lu Chaoyan's body with their own eyes. It was burned like that. How could she still be alive?
"I was burned to death, but perhaps it was God's blessing that I didn't die."
"impossible!"
Lu Qingqing shook her head desperately.
"No way, I'm lucky."
After she finished speaking, she suddenly leaned over to Lu Qingqing and said, "Lu Qingqing, do you know? I really want to kill you, I really want you to die, but I always feel that this is too easy for you, so I decided to let you live in pain."
"......"
Lu Qingqing looked at her in a daze. For some reason, she felt vaguely uneasy.
"So, you'll enjoy the next few days."
As she spoke, she took out a red pill and threw it into Lu Qingqing's mouth.
Lu Qingqing widened her eyes, wanting to vomit but unable to. She only felt a burning sensation all over her skin, as if a ball of fire was burning.
"What? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Gu Xiaoqiao asked with a smile.
"What the hell did you feed me?!"
Lu Qingqing's voice was trembling, beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on her forehead, and her breathing was disordered.
"I recently got bored and developed a new type of poison, the Liefendan."
Of course, she couldn't develop this, she exchanged it with the system.
After eating it, you will feel a real burning sensation as if you were burned by fire, which will last for two hours at a time and will disappear in a month at most.
Lu Qingqing should also feel the pain of how Lu Chaoyan died.
"I'll kill you bitch!"
When Lu Qingqing heard that she had been fed poison, she immediately became furious and opened her mouth to bite Gu Xiaoqiao.
Unfortunately, she was kicked over by Gu Xiaoqiao as soon as she opened her mouth.
"Someone, throw her out."
To die here would be to pollute her place.
After meeting Lu Qingqing, it’s time to meet Xu Jiaren, the unfaithful man.
