Chapter 225 It's Not That Simple



Chapter 225 It's Not That Simple

Half an hour later.

Zhao Simin looked at Zhao Meng, who had a satisfied look on his face, and immediately put on her clothes and fled out of the room.

Zhao Meng slowly got up, put on his clothes, and went to the backyard.

Looking at Zhao Simin who was desperately rinsing her mouth and washing her hands, he found it ridiculous.

"Tell me about your specific plan."

He didn't have the ability to kidnap Qi Yanzhou and force him to make love with Zhao Simin.

Zhao Simin spat out the dirty water in her mouth, shook the water off her hands, and quickly walked to Zhao Meng.

She took out a bottle of medicine from her sleeve pocket and handed it to Zhao Meng.

"This contains a mixture of sweet acacia and soul-destroying incense. As long as Qi Yanzhou breathes it into his body, he will be affected."

The cassia bark can stimulate people's sexual desire, while the aphrodisiac can block the internal strength and make the muscles and bones weak.

After Qi Yanzhou refused the marriage proposal, she had someone prepare this bottle of medicine.

It finally came in handy!

Zhao Meng took the medicine bottle and said, "Stay here and wait for my news."

After saying this, he left the house where the lights were on but no one lived in it.

He actually has a bold idea.

After Qi Yanzhou slept with Zhao Simin, he also wanted to have some fun.

If she is lucky, Zhao Simin will become pregnant with his child and become a prince or even a crown prince in the future!

He will help this child seize the throne and then become the emperor!

Thinking of this, Zhao Meng laughed out loud with joy.

He did not go to the pharmacy to find Qi Yanzhou immediately, but wrote a letter and asked his men to deliver it to the deputy general at the base.

No matter what the plan is for tonight, the deputy general cannot bring anyone to Dayang Town.

Of course, he just postponed the time of sending troops to tomorrow noon.

In case Zhao Simin's plan fails and angers Qi Yanzhou, bringing him fatal disaster.

The approaching army may make Qi Yanzhou afraid and save his life.

After writing the letter, Zhao Meng went to find Qi Yanzhou.

Qi Yanzhou sat behind the counter, his back against the medicine cabinet, taking a nap with his eyes closed.

The unfamiliar footsteps made him alert and his body tensed.

"Master Qi, this general wants to talk to you."

Qi Yanzhou recognized Zhao Meng's voice and asked lazily, "What do you want to talk about, Commander?"

"Let's talk about the sudden outbreak of the epidemic in Dayang Town and the price I have to pay for betraying the emperor."

Qi Yanzhou understood that Zhao Meng wanted to find a way out for himself.

He opened his eyes, stood up and sat down at the examination table.

"Let's talk."

Zhao Meng sat down opposite Qi Yanzhou.

"If I make public the truth about the sudden outbreak of the plague in Dayang Town, can I get a prescription to cure the plague?"

Qi Yanzhou nodded, "Yes."

"If I do this, I will offend the emperor. No matter the military pay, food, or winter clothes, they will no longer be supplied. Worse still, my entire clan will be executed, and the entire northwest garrison will be reduced to slavery."

"Given the emperor's vindictiveness, this is indeed the case, so what?"

"So I want Master Qi to give me a way out."

Zhao Meng did not directly propose to join Qi Yanzhou because he wanted to test Qi Yanzhou's thoughts.

Qi Yanzhou understood what Zhao Meng meant, but had no intention of taking over the garrison.

On the one hand, he did not believe that the royalists would be loyal after the change of leadership.

On the other hand, he didn't want to be a scapegoat and supply troops that were not loyal to him.

"I can't protect myself now. If you want a way out, you have to find it yourself."

Zhao Meng had long anticipated that Qi Yanzhou looked down upon his 10,000 troops.

He was not discouraged, and continued: "I wonder if I will be lucky enough to become a member of the Qi Family Army?"

Although the Qi family army had been disbanded long ago, he believed that as long as the Qi family members spoke up, the Qi family army could be reunited.

Qi Yanzhou did not answer but asked: "Do you know who is supporting the Qi Family Army now?"

What this means is that Zhao Meng must first support his own army before he is qualified to join the Qi Family Army.

This was also telling Zhao Meng that he intended to overthrow the imperial power.

You want to eat and drink for free by using the name of Qi’s Army? No way!

Zhao Meng answered truthfully: "The Qi family army is supported by the emperor."

After that, he asked again: "As long as my army is not supported by Master Qi, then I am qualified to be the Qi Family Army?"

It won't be long before Qi Yanzhou rebels.

He only needs to stabilize the morale of the troops for a few months and then he can plan for his own future.

Qi Yanzhou shook his head, "Of course not. The commander needs to complete the assessment and show absolute loyalty to be qualified to join the Qi Family Army."

Don’t miss the free pawn that comes to your door.

Zhao Meng knew that Qi Yanzhou would not easily accept his army, after all, he was a royalist.

The so-called assessment is most likely a delaying tactic.

"Mr. Qi, you are very thoughtful. This general is willing to accept your assessment."

First go along with Qi Yanzhou and let his guard down, then you’ll have a chance to drug him!

Qi Yanzhou poured himself a glass of cold water and said, "Can we talk about exposing the sudden outbreak of the disease in Dayang Town now?"

"Of course, please give me your instructions, Master Qi."

After Qi Yanzhou finished telling Zhao Meng about the sudden outbreak of three epidemics in Dayang Town, he asked Zhao Meng about his mission.

Zhao Meng told the truth.

"My mission is to shoot the soldiers who were accidentally infected with the disease while guarding Dayang Town, and then bury them on the spot."

"Go outside the town now and tell these words to the soldiers besieging the city."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Zhao Meng immediately left the pharmacy and left the town.

Qi Yanzhou looked at Zhao Meng's back and always felt that things were not that simple.

Zhao Meng was quite arrogant before, but now he wants to join him. There must be something going on!

He wanted to follow quietly, but then he thought that the street was full of Zhao Meng's men, so he gave up.

He returned to the counter and continued to lean against the medicine cabinet with his eyes closed, waiting for the morning hour to arrive before lighting the medicine incense.

After resting for a while, Zhao Meng came back.

"Master Qi, the soldiers outside the town wanted to see you after they realized they were deceived by the magistrate of Lai County."

Qi Yanzhou guessed what the soldiers wanted to say and was too lazy to make the trip.

"There's no need to meet them. Just let them tell the truth tomorrow."

Zhao Meng thought that the pharmacy was crowded with people coming and going, and even if he successfully gave Qi Yanzhou the medicine, he wouldn't be able to take Qi Yanzhou away.

We must lure him out of the town before we can take action.

He said, "Master Qi, you'd better go there. They also want to seek protection."

Even if Qi Yanzhou had the ability, he would not provide protection to those cruel soldiers. He just wanted to get rid of them as soon as possible.

But he agreed anyway.

"Let's go."

When Zhao Meng saw that his goal had been achieved, a light of success flashed across his eyes.

"Master Qi, please."

Although the light was fleeting, it was captured by Qi Yanzhou.

He wanted to see what kind of trouble Zhao Meng was going to make.

The two of them left the town one after the other.

When the soldiers besieging the city saw Qi Yanzhou, they all knelt down and begged for mercy.

"We were forced by the county magistrate. If we don't obey his orders, our whole family will die!"

"Our family members are being controlled by the county magistrate. Please, Master Qi, save them."

Someone slapped himself hard twice.

"We were wrong. We shouldn't have done such a cruel thing!"

"Please give us a chance, Master Qi, to atone for our sins."

Seeing that Qi Yanzhou's attention was on the kneeling soldier, Zhao Meng secretly poured out the medicine in the bottle and sprinkled it on him.
