After hearing that it was Jiang Jinghe who found the five poisonous snakes, Jiang Jingyu pursed her lips and walked out of the imperial study, followed by Nanny Xiang with a serious expression.
As soon as Jiang Jingyu reached the door of the imperial study, she saw Jiang Jinghe standing outside the hall with a cage, looking at her with a smile.
"Your Majesty, is it this Five Poisonous Snake in my hand that you are looking for?"
Jiang Jinghe raised the cage in his hand in front of him, allowing Jiang Jingyu to see the five poisonous snakes lurking inside more clearly.
After seeing the golden snake in the cage, Jiang Jingyu narrowed his eyes and clenched his hands into fists under his sleeves.
"Tell me what you want."
Jiang Jingyu looked calmly at Jiang Jinghe opposite her. She knew that Jiang Jinghe came with the five poisonous snakes today not to ask for a reward, but to negotiate terms with her.
Jiang Jinghe curled her lips: "As expected, we are sisters from the same mother. Your Majesty knows me best."
Jiang Jingyu didn't say anything, waiting for Jiang Jinghe to continue.
Jiang Jinghe stepped forward carrying a cage containing five poisonous snakes. The guards on duty in front of the imperial study subconsciously grasped the hilts of their swords. As long as Jiang Jingyu gave an order, they would draw their swords to stop Jiang Jinghe in the next moment!
Jiang Jingyu didn't say anything, but watched Jiang Jinghe walk up to her and circle around her.
"Tsk tsk, it really is a changing world. Your Majesty probably never thought that you would need my help one day, right?"
Jiang Jinghe's words were full of pride, and the anger that had accumulated over the past two days was instantly vented.
"It's not impossible for you to have the Five Poisonous Snakes in my hand, but... I have a condition."
Jiang Jinghe walked around Jiang Jingyu and finally stopped in front of her, smiling wildly.
Jiang Jingyu lowered her eyes and looked at Jiang Jinghe, who was half a head shorter than her. She opened her thin lips slightly and said, "Speak."
"See my arm?"
Jiang Jinghe turned her head and looked at her broken arm. She said to Jiang Jingyu, "Your Majesty broke it yourself. Since we are sisters, why don't you break one of your arms and become like me?"
"Second Prince, you are going too far!"
Nanny Xiang had always disliked Jiang Jinghe, and now after hearing her make such an impolite request, she could no longer hold back and immediately scolded her.
Jiang Jinghe glanced at Nanny Xiang, who was glaring at him, and said with a smile, "It's okay if I don't have to cripple my arm. Then please ask Your Majesty to issue an imperial decree to pass on the throne. As long as Your Majesty personally hands over the throne to me, I will hand over these five poisonous snakes to you. How about that?"
Jiang Jinghe raised the five poisonous snakes in his hand and shook them in front of Jiang Jingyu. She looked so nagging for a beating that Nanny Xiang wanted to rush forward and slap her twice!
"I have always been impatient. If Your Majesty doesn't give me a reply soon, then I will crush these five poisonous snakes to death."
Jiang Jinghe was about to open the cage, but Jiang Jingyu gritted her teeth and said, "Wait!"
"It seems that His Majesty has already issued the decree of succession. Then please come in. Let us hand over the decree in one hand and the five poisonous snakes in the other."
Jiang Jinghe shrugged. She had already guessed why Jiang Jingyu was looking for the Five Poisonous Snakes. Originally, she came to the palace just to take a gamble, but she didn't expect that Mingyou had such an important position in Jiang Jingyu's mind that she would even give up the throne to save him!
Jiang Jingyu looked at Jiang Jinghe deeply, and under her gaze, turned and went to the imperial study to write the edict of succession. Not long after, he came to Jiang Jinghe with a bright yellow imperial edict.
"Here is the decree of succession. Hand over the five poisonous snakes."
Jiang Jinghe glanced at the imperial edict in Jiang Jingyu's hand and burst out laughing.
"Jiang Jingyu, ah Jiang Jingyu, you actually gave up the throne for a man, tsk tsk, but now I don't want the imperial edict, what should I do?"
Jiang Jinghe chuckled, then leaned close to Jiang Jingyu's ear and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Without Mingyou's protection, how long can you live?"
Previously, when Jiang Jinghe sent people to assassinate Jiang Jingyu, Mingyou disrupted his plans several times. Now Mingyou is poisoned and will not live long. She wants to see how long Jiang Jingyu can live!
After testing Mingyou's position in Jiang Jingyu's heart, Jiang Jinghe suddenly changed his mind.
Even without the imperial edict, she would eventually be able to sit on the throne as she wished. Now she just wanted Jiang Jingyu to experience what it felt like to watch the person she loved die in front of her!
A hint of cruelty flashed in Jiang Jinghe's eyes. She flicked her sleeves and threw the cage in her hand towards the stone mountain beside her.
Bang!
The cage containing the five poisonous snakes was instantly smashed into pieces!
The five poisonous snakes crawled out of the broken cage with their tongues spitting out!
"Catch that snake!"
At Jiang Jingyu's command, several guards instantly ran towards the five poisonous snakes in front!
When several guards were about to catch the five poisonous snakes, Jiang Jinghe gave Jiang Jingyu a vicious look, then turned around and waved his internal force towards the five poisonous snakes in front!
"don't want!"
Jiang Jingyu's pupils suddenly shrank, and when she spoke out to stop it, it was too late.
bump--
With a loud bang, the stone mountain was smashed into pieces by the internal force wielded by Jiang Jinghe. The five poisonous snakes under the stone mountain were directly blown to pieces, and blood splattered everywhere!
After achieving his goal, Jiang Jinghe turned and looked at Jiang Jingyu, wanting to see the heart-wrenching expression on her face.
However, as she turned around, a cold light flashed before her eyes!
Swish!
The sound of a long sword breaking through the air was heard, and the next moment the sharp sword directly pierced through Jiang Jinghe's left chest! !
Jiang Jinghe's brain suddenly went blank. She looked down at her chest in disbelief, and saw the cold sword stuck straight into her chest. She didn't even have time to feel the pain!
"you……"
Jiang Jinghe looked at Jiang Jingyu in astonishment. In her eyes, Jiang Jingyu was a waste who had no martial arts skills, so she was not on guard against her at all.
