Before he finished speaking, Bai Ren came in from outside, supporting Qian Hun, and said urgently, "Master, don't drink the water from the well in this prefecture. It's poisonous! The soldiers have been poisoned!"

Yue Nanchen was shocked. He didn't expect Tianwen to be so despicable as to poison the well!

Yue Nanchen asked coldly, "How many people were poisoned?"

Bai Ren said urgently, "Two thousand people, all the soldiers stationed in the prefecture were poisoned. There were no poison in the city or those guarding the city gates. Tian Wen should have only spread the poison in the well of the prefecture!"

Yue Nanchen slammed the table hard. The two armies were fighting, and Tianwen actually used such despicable methods. It was a waste of time that he had treated him as a friend and confidant for the past ten years!

"Report! Your Highness, something bad has happened. The army of Louxi country has returned again, and Lightning is leading his men to challenge for a fight outside the city!" A guard came in quickly to report.

“You came just in time!” Yue Nanchen’s eyes turned cold, and he said sinisterly, “If Tianwen doesn’t hand over the antidote today, I will never let it go!”

Outside the city gate, Lightning, dressed in red armor, looked coldly at the war horses pouring out of the city gate, and shouted in a cold voice, "Today I am not here to challenge a fight, but to negotiate. Yue Nanchen, if you want the antidote, then exchange it for the antidote from Wuxing Palace, and withdraw from Yulu City. Otherwise, you can just wait for your soldiers to die of poison!"

Yue Nanchen sneered, "What antidote to Wuxing Palace are you talking about? I don't know!"

"Stop pretending. Don't you know who the Palace Master of Wuxing Palace is? The weapons held by her subordinates are all poisonous. We are also taking an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. If you want the antidote, you can exchange one medicine for another!"

After Lightning finished shouting, he immediately called off the attack. It was obvious that they were really after the antidote.

Sitting on a high head

On the horse, Yue Nanchen carefully recalled Lightning's words, turned his head suddenly and said coldly, "Bai Ren, you will temporarily take over the position of the head of Wantong Hall, and order them to immediately investigate the current location of Wuxing Palace!"

"Yes!" Bai Ren quickly took the order and went forward.

The Palace Master of Wuxing Palace, could it be...

In Yucheng, Shui Yao handed the improved formula of explosives to Lan Yi, "Send it to the military factory immediately and have them make it overnight. Except for the part for Master Shi, all of it should be shipped here!"

Lan nodded and left quickly.

Shui Yao stepped forward and played with the pistol on the table. Although its appearance was not as sophisticated as modern guns, the bullets inside had been improved by her and were somewhat like ancient hidden weapons. After the explosion, the herbal ingredients in the explosives would take the opportunity to penetrate into the human body, making the wound difficult to heal and increasing the lethality.

This was also a brilliant idea she came up with during her years of medical practice, and she never expected that it could actually be applied in practice.

Knock knock, there was a knock on the door. Shui Yao opened the door and saw Lan coming back.

"My Lord, the King of Yongnan is here. He is in the front hall and must see you!"

Shui Yao was shocked. Did he know what happened last night? No, it was impossible. She went there alone last night. Bai Ren couldn't have known that she was the master of Wuxing Palace. How could he have found this place?

"Did you let them see your face?" Shui Yao whispered, with some nervousness in her voice.

Lan Yi shook his head, "No, I am wearing a blue veil!"

"That's good!" Shui Yao's eyes darkened. She didn't want to have anything to do with Yue Nanchen anymore. She just didn't want to see him die!

"Dress up for me, and put on the human skin mask!" Shui Yao whispered, sitting in front of the dressing mirror.

She has already learned 70% of Qianhun's disguise technique.

Yin also learned how to change his voice, so it was no problem for him to disguise himself as another person.

Shui Yao, dressed in white and with a veil on her face, walked slowly in the middle. In front, behind, and on both sides of her were girls in pink, carrying flower baskets and scattering fresh petals all the way from the yard to the hall.

Qianhun was in a daze. Seeing the woman making such a big scene, he forced a smile and said, "My Lord, the Palace Master of Wuxing Palace is so grand, even more grand than the Emperor's travels!"

Yue Nanchen said nothing, just stood there coldly, letting the petals fall on his body and face. He raised his hand, picked up a petal, touched it, smelled it, and found that it was a real petal.

It is said that in winter, only Huazhu Villa has flowers blooming, and then there is Miro Country. It takes three days' journey from here to Miro Country even by fast horse. Even fresh flowers have become dried flowers. It takes a day's journey to Huazhu Villa. The palace master really spared no expense in creating this wardrobe, which is inconsistent with Yaoer's stingy personality.

"The Palace Master is here!" Following a woman's delicate shout, the Palace Master of Wuxing Palace, Bai Ling, who walked outside the door, waved her hand, pointed her toes, and suddenly rose from the ground, like a fairy descending from heaven.

"What do you want from me?" Shui Yao's voice was soft but with a hint of coldness, different from her original sweet and lazy voice. Although her face was covered with a white veil, her cold and unparalleled demeanor shone through the veil.

Yue Nanchen stood up straight, his deep eyes fell on the woman, and he whispered, "Nanchen thanks the Palace Master for your help last time!"

Without even looking at him, Shui Yao just waved her hand lazily. Her voice was still cold, but light, with a touch of tenderness that penetrated people's hearts. "Prince Yongnan is too polite. Emperor Yue and I have an agreement in advance. He pays and I work.

It’s my duty to help you!”

Yue Nanchen smiled slightly. This was just like that woman who loved money so much. Everything was business and transaction for her!

"Then please help me again, Palace Master!" Yue Nanchen pointed at Qianhun and said, "Louxi Country poisoned the well water in Yulu City. Now nearly two thousand soldiers of Nanyue have been poisoned. They want the Palace Master's antidote in exchange!"

Shui Yao's eyes darkened, and the white silk flew out, draped over Qianhun's pulse, paused slightly, and then coldly retracted it. It was indeed poisoned. Tianwen was really smart, and he actually used this method to ask her for the antidote!

The snow-white and slender fingers that looked like they were carved from white jade lazily touched the crystal-white forehead. The only exposed willow-shaped eyebrow was lazily raised. Shui Yao said indifferently, "Why should I help you? What benefits will I get from helping you?"

Yue Nanchen was not angry. His eyes sparkled as he looked at the woman and whispered, "What do you want?"

Shui Yao hummed softly, lowered her head as if in deep thought, and suddenly raised her face and smiled, "I want a thousand elite soldiers!" The military factory needs manpower. Soldiers are easy to manage and loyal, and are the best laborers!

Qian Hun, who was slumped in his chair, almost jumped up and couldn't help but sneered, "A thousand elite soldiers? You might as well go and rob them!"

"Haha!" Shui Yao sneered, looking at Qianhun whose face had turned dark purple.

"This is the poison of the purple jade grass of Louxi Country. Only the royal family of Louxi Country has the antidote. No one else has it. Think carefully, do you want to let two thousand soldiers die of the poison, or do you want to give me a thousand elite soldiers? Anyway, you have earned half of the profit!"

"What do you need so many people for?" Yue Nanchen asked in a low voice, his eyes full of curiosity.

Yubai's fingers were lazily curled up, but the three of them clearly felt that the woman

The charming eyes of the person turned colder, "You are here to ask me for favors, not to discuss business with me. It seems that you have no right to control what I want you to do!"

Qian Hun lost his temper again. He would never allow anyone to treat him so poorly, let alone be neglected and despised by this woman because of his poison!

"Qianhun, sit down!" Yue Nanchen said in a low voice, signaling Qianhun not to act rashly.

"Master!" Qian Hun shouted in dissatisfaction, sat down with his head down, and hated himself again. Why did he go to that provincial capital to drink tea? A cup of tea caused him so much trouble!

"Three hundred, no more!" Yue Nanchen spoke quietly, and his words surprised Qianhun and Bairen. When did I become so easy to talk to? I even bargained with others? Thinking about my performance after entering this Wuxing Palace, it seems...

"This palace master has said that this is not a business negotiation. You are not qualified to bargain!" Standing up lazily, the woman seemed to be about to leave.

"Okay! One thousand elite soldiers!" Yue Nanchen responded quietly, stood up, and clasped his fists, "Then I'll trouble the Palace Master to take out the antidote now. As for the elite soldiers, they will arrive tomorrow!"

"What a pleasure!" The woman raised her eyebrows and waved her hand. Two masked women in pink came forward, each holding an exquisite brocade box.

"I've given you the antidote for internal and external use. If you dare to go back on your word, I don't mind letting my people fire a few cannons at your territory. When friends become enemies, don't blame me!" The woman spoke lazily, but her words were full of threats.

Yue Nanchen smiled faintly, "Don't worry, Palace Master. How could our Nanyue go back on his word?" After saying that, he stood up and said goodbye to Qianhun and Bairen.
