"General Xiao, please spare our lives. We would never dare to betray you. Please leave us a way out..."
Jiang Xu looked at the glaring red bag of poison and burst into tears in fear.
The brighter the color of the poison, the more poisonous it is.
Such a red poison packaging, doesn't it mean...
Lin Yiran looked at Xiao Yunzhan who was talking nonsense seriously, and then looked at the palace guards who were scared pale by the packaging bags, and she had to hold back her smile in great pain.
The second sister-in-law looked at the poison in Xiao Yunzhan's hand curiously. She had never seen this thing before.
The sound of the packaging bag sounds so much like the food packaging brought by the gods.
The second sister-in-law's pupils shrank slightly, and she glanced at Lin Yiran from the corner of her eyes.
Looking at Lin Yiran's expression of trying not to laugh, what else did she not understand?
Well, this poison should be used by gods. It is unique in Daliang State. These palace guards are lucky to have it.
Xiao Yunzhan glared fiercely at Jiang Xu with his cold and deep eyes.
"This poison won't kill you instantly. Your body will experience some discomfort after taking it. As long as you take the antidote once a year, you'll be able to behave like a normal person."
"Anyone who refuses to take this medicine..."
Xiao Yunzhan sneered, raised the sword in his right hand and swung it, breaking a stone as big as a washbasin into two pieces.
"Such a stone!"
After saying that, Xiao Yunzhan quickly glanced at Lin Yiran from the corner of his eyes, feeling very nervous.
He had no idea what the reaction would be after taking this poison.
He just made a vague move based on other people's previous reactions to poisoning.
This medicine shouldn't be enough to block my throat.
His request was for a poison that controlled people, so this poison should have this effect.
Lin Yiran exclaimed inwardly and gave Xiao Yunzhan a thumbs up for his show-off.
This guy has some brains, and his random nonsense actually matched his idea.
That packet of poison is the enhanced version of Maltesers, which has the packaging of Maltesers on the outside but contains laxatives inside.
Enhanced Maltesers
(Enhanced version of Maltesers)
This thing was created by some talented netizens as an April Fool's Day prank.
Just put it up on the takeaway mall and give it to Xiao Yunzhan as poison.
The effect is that you will feel uncomfortable when you first eat it, but you will be fine after that.
The palace guards looked at the stone that Xiao Yunzhan had split in shock, and they couldn't help but shrink their necks, worried that the sword would chop off their heads at any time.
Jiang Xu clenched his teeth, took a deep breath, and walked towards Xiao Yunzhan with a stiff body.
"Your subordinate is willing to be the first to take the poison, to... to show your loyalty..."
"Please give me medicine, General Xiao..."
No matter what, there is a poison on his head and a sword on his throat, there is no way to escape, he might as well be more self-conscious and leave a good impression.
It is better to live a little longer after taking poison than to be killed by a sword without even having time to breathe.
Xiao Yunzhan looked at Jiang Xu with a deeper look in his eyes, raised his eyelids and glanced at the people who were watching.
With a "swish", he tore open the package, took out a dark brown and smooth pill from it, and handed it to Jiang Xu.
"Swallow it in one gulp."
Jiang Xu looked at the overly large poison in front of him and took a deep breath with trembling lips.
A strange bitter-sweet smell rushed into his head, and this weird smell made him feel inexplicably panic.
Jiang Xu gritted his teeth, took the poison handed to him by Xiao Yunzhan with trembling hands, and swallowed twice unconsciously.
Jiang Xu raised his eyelids and glanced at Xiao Yunzhan with a flicker in his eyes. When he met Xiao Yunzhan's eyes that were like ice cones, he was so frightened that his whole body trembled and he raised his hand to stuff the poison into his mouth.
He closed his eyes, stretched his neck, and tried hard to swallow the pill, but the pill was too big. He choked and rolled his eyes, retched several times, and had a very hard time swallowing it.
The palace guards were so frightened when they saw Jiang Xu in so much pain after taking the poison that they broke out in sweat and their bodies kept shaking.
Wei Heshan knelt beside Jiang Xu and could tell at a glance that Jiang Xu was choked by the poison.
He glanced at Xiao Yunzhan with a sly look, bent his waist and moved behind Jiang Xu, raised his palm as big as a palm fan, and slapped Jiang Xu's back twice.
Jiang Xu rolled his eyes after being slapped by Wei Heshan, and felt like his spine was about to be broken.
His eyes widened, he held up his neck and gulped down the poison.
Jiang Xu gasped heavily, pushed Wei Heshan who was standing behind him away with an elbow, and looked at him with resentment.
You think he wasn't dying fast enough, so you hit him so hard that you almost made his internal organs pop out.
"Brother Jiang, you're welcome. It's just a piece of cake."
Wei Heshan saw Jiang Xu looking at him with gratitude, and quickly waved his hand to refuse Jiang Xu's thanks.
Jiang Xu's mouth twitched twice, and he silently cursed his stupid teammates in his heart.
"Thank you, mother..."
Wei Heshan turned to look at Xiao Yunzhan and gave him a flattering smile.
"General Xiao, please give one to your subordinate as well..."
Wei Heshan cupped his hands and raised them tremblingly in front of Xiao Yunzhan.
Xiao Yunzhan raised his eyebrows, pinched a poison pill and placed it in Wei Heshan's hand.
Wei Heshan pursed his lips, tilted his head back and stuffed the poison into his mouth. He stretched his neck and the poison rolled down his throat.
He raised his hand, patted his chest, and slid the poison down his throat.
With these two taking the lead, the other palace guards looked at each other and followed suit, taking the poison.
Jiang Xu was worried that someone would betray everyone by not eating the poison, so he watched everyone eat the poison and asked them to open their mouths for him to check.
He has eaten them all, so no one of these people can be left out.
Only when we are all in the same boat can we be of one mind.
If someone doesn’t have any to eat, they will definitely betray everyone when they get back. This is not acceptable.
After staring at them for a while, Jiang Xu received resentful looks from the palace guards.
Lin Yiran's mouth was grinning the whole time. It must be said that she was quite happy to have a subordinate like Jiang Xu.
Xiao Yunzhan glanced at Lin Yiran who was looking at Jiang Xu with a silly smile, and his eyes looked at Jiang Xu a little darker.
He raised his foot slightly, blocking Lin Yiran's sight calmly, and swept his eyes around sharply.
"This poison requires an antidote once a year. You will continue to stay in the capital and gather intelligence for me. Whoever provides useful clues will be the first to obtain the antidote."
"If you don't take the antidote on time, you could die at any time."
"You don't have to think about going to the doctor. No one can cure this poison."
"If you don't believe me, you can try it..."
Xiao Yunzhan narrowed his eyes coldly, frightening the palace guards so much that they trembled all over.
How could anyone in this world be able to detoxify the poison given by the gods, let alone recognize its effect?
If everyone could see the poison in the gods, wouldn't that be chaos?
But he really didn't know whether there was an antidote, so he had to ask Lin Yiran.
