Chapter 293: Moon Nation’s National Treasure, Imperial Secret Medicine
He still remembered what expression Xiao Xiyue had at that time.
She was not as elegant and dignified as when we met again later. She looked very childish and a little timid.
It seemed that it took all of his courage to help him drive away the little eunuchs who bullied him.
He was so timid at that time that he didn't even have time to say thank you. He just ran away in panic when he heard the sound of other people coming.
Later, I heard that Princess Xiyue met the Second Princess there and was severely tortured. She was sick for seven days and almost died.
At that time, he really felt guilty that he had escaped first and did not take her with him.
This time, it won’t happen…
Cheng Ye felt another sharp pain in his back. His already weak body became even weaker. His vision went dark and his brain had no strength to think.
He used the last bit of his strength to support his body so as not to crush Princess Xiyue who was being protected by him.
"Bang……"
Cheng Ye's body was pulled forcefully by someone, and he collapsed on the ground in front of Xiyue without a sound.
Cheng Ye fell down, and Xiyue saw again the person who killed him.
The guard beside the second prince had red eyes and a heavy breath, and his eyes were full of despair.
Xiyue knew what he was thinking now.
The second prince had his throat cut by this hairpin while he was in his care. Regardless of whether he could kill himself to give an explanation to the emperor, his life was over.
"Catch her and bring her back to your majesty!"
He looked at Xiyue with resentment and hatred. He hesitated when he took a step forward, then turned around and shouted to the few remaining guards around him.
No one knows what secret medicine these envoys from the Yue Kingdom used. They didn't care at all about whether they would hurt their own people by mistake and just poured it on them.
The Yue Kingdom is well-known for its witchcraft and poison. As long as they want to poison someone and don't care about their own life or death, then you will not be able to escape the fate of death.
Unless... they themselves are willing to give you the antidote.
However, before setting off, Xiyue entered the secret room that only she knew about in the entire Yue Kingdom, and personally destroyed all the secret medicines that had been passed down for thousands of years.
Not to mention the antidote, she didn't even leave a piece of paper.
The treasure of the Yue Kingdom's royal family is this secret room that has been passed down from emperor to emperor. Here are all kinds of secret medicines developed by the Yue Kingdom's ancestors over thousands of years.
These small bottles, jars and a cabinet full of books are the cost of establishing the country.
The reason why those countries are jealous of the Moon Kingdom is that they know how precious the things controlled by the Moon Kingdom’s royal family are.
Poisons that can kill with one sword and have no other cure are already common, and they also have all kinds of strange and bizarre witchcraft poisons.
Loyalty Gu, Lover Gu, etc. are all things that everyone in this world wants.
The life-extending medicine that is as effective as an elixir is their important target.
As the superiors, who wouldn't want to live longer? The national treasure of the Moon Kingdom cannot be taken away by them with just a few words.
If you can’t get what you want, someone else will take it.
Xiyue had anticipated this situation, so she went to the secret room alone without hesitation and destroyed all these things.
The new emperor and the second prince of the enemy country had a disagreement because of this incident.
The new emperor said that he didn't know where the medicines were hidden, but the second prince of the enemy country didn't believe him and thought the new emperor was lying to him.
Everyone knows that the national treasure of the Moon Kingdom will only be passed down through word of mouth among emperors. He is the emperor now, how could he not know anything about it? He must be lying to himself.
The new emperor became anxious at that time and spoke directly about his own situation, which slapped himself in the face.
Almost everyone knows how he came to be emperor.
The fact that the old emperor didn't kill him before he died was considered as him hiding far away, not to mention that he told him about the secret medicine.
He is an emperor who doesn't even have the imperial seal, so how can you expect him to inherit something?
And... he even has a family background in zero waste...
People of the Yue Kingdom's royal family would have to accept instruction in witchcraft and poison, whether they were willing or not, but he learned nothing.
During the conversation between the two, the new emperor was anxious to get rid of his guilt, so he directed the blame on Xiyue.
"Princess Xiyue was the most favored by my father during his lifetime. She was regarded as a treasure by the whole country. She must know the news of the secret medicine!
There is also the imperial seal. My mother and I speculate that it is in her hands. You can go find her; she must have it. ”
When the second prince saw the new emperor who was greedy for life and afraid of death, he could not hide his contempt and regretted his previous plan of choosing him to support.
If he had known the situation inside Yue Country, he should have approached Xiyue directly and would not have gone through so much trouble...
With this in mind, they included Xiyueyue in their new plan.
The marriage plan was also planned by them at that time, in order to trap Xiyue by their side and force her to tell the whereabouts of the secret medicine and the imperial seal.
Xiyue was smarter than they thought. She naturally didn't think that a strong candidate for the lofty position of crown prince would choose a foreign princess from a defeated country as the prince's consort.
Moreover, this candidate is disabled and cannot stand up.
Xiyue knew very well that they came here for what she had in her hands.
She would destroy whatever they wanted. It would be nice to use their power to eliminate the useless emperor who was even more useless.
As for the safety of the common people... Xiyue has already taken this into consideration.
After the Second Prince died at her hands, they must have been furious, and had an excuse to search the maze room when they massacred the Moon Kingdom's palace.
Now that the old nest has been lost, the common people will have fewer setbacks.
The last safe option is Jimo Winter...
Jimo Dong has always been a nobody, and Xiyue is very clear about this from the system's prompts.
Xiyue, who had already lost her feelings for Jimo Dong, did not hesitate to include Jimo Dong in her plan.
She even calculated other people's feelings towards her...Xiyue is the vicious person that the new emperor and the new empress dowager often call her.
For example, now, Xiyue, who had been facing the Second Prince's guard's barking without any reaction, suddenly raised the hairpin in her hand that she had wiped clean when she noticed someone riding a horse galloping towards her in the distance, and without hesitation, she slashed her neck hard.
The moment the blood spurted out, Xiyue heard Jimo Dong's painful cry.
For a moment... my heart, which should have been calm, seemed to be gripped by someone and I couldn't breathe.
She actually felt sorry for a moment...
This was her fate. When she sacrificed her life in exchange for the peace and happiness of the people of the Moon Kingdom, she knew that she would die.
