Chapter 165 Otherwise, I don’t mind overthrowing his throne!
Lan Xiyue raised her hand and pointed to a stool beside her, "Sit down."
Chu Xia sat down as she was told. Lan Xiyue held a small porcelain bottle filled with freshly prepared medicinal juice and handed it to Chu Xia, "Drink it."
Chu Xia took the porcelain bottle, put it close to her nose and sniffed it gently. Her brows knitted together instantly, and she said with disgust: "Eh... Miss, why does this medicine smell so bad!"
Lan Xiyue raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this, and a smile that could not be questioned appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Drink it quickly, this is a good medicine for detoxification. Drink it, and I will give you acupuncture."
Chuchun, who was standing by, saw this and quickly comforted her, "Chuxia, bear with it and drink it in one breath."
Chuxia bit her lip and closed her eyes. As soon as she brought the medicine close to her lips, the indescribable stench rushed into her mind and she couldn't help but dry heave.
She suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes full of pity, and looked at Lan Xiyue: "Miss, I can't drink it. Do you have any other ideas?"
Seeing this, Lan Xiyue raised a sly smile. She snatched the porcelain bottle and nodded slightly: "I do have another way."
When Chu Xia heard this, a light flashed in her eyes: "Really? That's great, then I don't need to..." Before she finished speaking, Lan Xiyue quickly took action, pinched her chin, and forced the medicine into her without any explanation.
Chuchun couldn't bear to watch it, so he turned away and secretly worried about Chuxia.
After the medicine was finished, Lan Xiyue released Chu Xia's chin and said with a hint of joking, "This is my method."
Chu Xia felt her throat churning and was about to vomit, but Lan Xiyue had already quickly sealed her blood circulation channels with acupuncture, then unbuttoned her shirt and began to give her more acupuncture to help the antidote take effect quickly.
After two cups of tea, Lan Xiyue slowly retracted the silver needle and gently cut Chu Xia's left wrist.
Black blood instantly gushed out, carrying a hint of ferocity and terror. However, after a short while, the black blood was gradually replaced by bright red blood.
Seeing this, Lan Xiyue stopped Chu Xia's bleeding and bandaged the wound.
After everything was settled, Lan Xiyue finally unblocked Chu Xia's blocked acupoints.
Lan Xiyue stretched lazily, her tone lazily saying, "Okay, you can go back and have a good rest."
Chuchun was delighted, "Miss, has the poison in Chuxia's body been resolved?"
"Um!"
Chu Xia was also happy, "Thank you, Miss."
Lan Xiyue waved her hand and said, "Go and have a rest."
"Miss, you should go to bed early." Chuchun and Chuxia said in unison, and then they left the room.
It was past midnight, and everything was silent. Lan Xiyue stood by the window, gazing at the pitch-black sky outside. She muttered, "It's so late, I wonder if Mo Liyuan is asleep yet?"
Although Lan Xiyue was unwilling and didn't want to compromise with the system, her life was her own and it was better to live a miserable life than to die. Forget it, in order to survive, she had to earn points. One day, she would get rid of the system and live a free life in this world.
Lan Xiyue walked out of the room and into the silent night.
It was pitch black all around, with only a few lights in the distance swaying in the night wind. "Where does Mo Liyuan live?" Lan Xiyue muttered to herself.
At this moment, a dark shadow appeared silently in front of her. It was An Yi.
"Miss Lan, are you looking for your master? I'll take you there!"
Lan Xiyue raised an eyebrow and muttered to herself, "Oh, right, I forgot that An Yi and An Er were watching me in the dark." She snorted coldly, her tone carrying a hint of displeasure: "Humph! Lead the way!"
Although An Yi was a little confused by Lan Xiyue's sudden unfriendly tone, he still responded respectfully and turned around to lead the way.
In the night, the two figures gradually walked away, leaving only a series of light footsteps echoing in the silent night sky.
On the other side, the county magistrate's study had been requisitioned by Mo Liyuan, who was sitting at the desk.
Tianyi stood aside and reported in a low voice: "Master, the memorial has been sent back at full speed and will be delivered to the emperor in three days. Master, what should we do with those bandits? The cells in the county government are full."
Mo Liyuan pondered for a moment and slowly said, "Send those bandits to Beigu for hard labor tomorrow morning, and personally escort them with the troops I brought with me."
Tian Yi responded and continued, "Master, the weapons in the palace at Mogu Mountain are already being secretly guarded. Why don't you confiscate them and give them to the Mohist army?"
Mo Liyuan's eyes were as deep as a pool, and his voice was cold. "My royal brother has always been suspicious of me. If I embezzled these weapons, I'm afraid he would be even more intolerant of me if he found out. My mother is old, and I don't want her to be caught in a dilemma. Otherwise, I wouldn't mind dethroning him."
Tianyi fell silent upon hearing this. As a subordinate, he could only listen and not comment. He also felt sorry for his master. His master was clearly not interested in the throne and had repeatedly made concessions, but the emperor simply did not trust him. They had encountered many ambushes on their way to Demon Valley Mountain. If his master did not take the empress dowager into consideration, the emperor would not be able to sit on his throne safely.
