Chapter 280: Dark Thoughts Hidden for More Than Ten Years



He shook his head violently out of great fear.

The high priest just said that the antidotes in the first two bowls will combine with the antidote for the third poison to form a new poison.

The toxicity is comparable to that of the poisoned thrush, causing bleeding from the mouth and nose, and a horrific death...

Just thinking about it makes him timid.

The high priest raised his chin slightly, and the guards took the order, holding the medicine bowls, and walked towards Lan Yufeng one by one.

Lan Yufeng's pupils dilated, his face filled with fear. He cried out at the top of his lungs, "Mother, save me!"

The high priest had a calm expression, as if he was looking at a disgusting pile of shit!

Lan Yuqiao, who was staying in a nearby teahouse, clenched the teacup in his hand with a mocking look in his eyes.

Lan Yufeng is such a coward and a waste!

Bringing up Zhuona at this time would only make the high priest dislike the Lan family even more.

She looked at Zhuona who was sitting beside her with a cold face.

"Mom, what should I do?"

Zhuona locked her eyes tightly and asked word by word, "Yufeng doesn't have that kind of brain. Even if he wanted to take revenge, he would only use poison!"

The wrinkles between Lan Yuqiao's brows deepened. "Mom, what do you mean by saying this? Are you suspecting that I instigated Yu Feng? What good will it do me?"

Zhuona didn't say anything else.

She had no evidence to support her guess, only relying on a woman's intuition.

"Do you think a playboy like Yufeng only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, and that he has no idea about the things we do behind the scenes to help the high priest?"

Zhuona's silence made her even more heartbroken.

She laughed sarcastically, "My abilities are superior to Yufeng's. Since we were little, you've been constantly telling me that I'm the older sister and must give in to my younger brother, Yufeng! No matter what happens, I must protect him. The Lan family still needs him!"

As he said these words, Lan Yuqiao felt as if a huge hole had been cut in his heart, and a cold wind was rushing in.

"Mom, the reason why Yufeng has become what he is now, and the reason why the Lan family is being roasted on the fire, is ultimately because of Yufeng!"

"Enough!" Zhuona didn't want to hear these words at all.

She was a widow, a woman with two children, who wanted to support the huge Lan family and prevent those who coveted the position of the mistress of the Lan family from bullying the three of them. What she had to pay was several times more than that of an ordinary person.

She just wanted to compensate Lan Yufeng more. After all, he was still young and had never experienced any fatherly love.

As for Lan Yuqiao, she has grown up. As the eldest daughter, she naturally has to protect her younger brother.

Everyone goes through this, so why did it turn into resentment in her case?

"Mother, the High Priest is obviously going to give up Yufeng to appease the people's grievances!"

"You think I don't know?" Zhuona's eyes were sharp, as if she could see all the way to the depths of her soul. "You've always been jealous of Yufeng, right?"

His dark thoughts were suddenly revealed, and no matter how calm and composed Lan Yuqiao was, he still panicked for a moment.

Everything is implied.

She was destined to lose a son. For the sake of the Lan family, she could not say anything even if her daughter's actions disappointed her.

He stood up tiredly and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm leaving first."

She couldn't bear to watch her own son die from the poison.

Crane's Crown Red...

When the poison takes effect, the victim dies in a horrible way.

Seeing her stagger, Lan Yuqiao wanted to support her, but Zhuona brushed her hand away little by little.

She pursed her lips, and for a moment her heart felt as bitter as if she had eaten coptis chinensis.

In the square, the guards had already given Lan Yufeng two bowls of poison and two bowls of antidote.

It wasn't a long interval, so Lan Yufeng didn't feel anything unusual.

The onlookers exchanged glances with each other, staring eagerly at the third bowl of poison in the guard's hand and the antidote prepared by the high priest.

"He won't really die from the poison, will he?"

"Even if Lan Yufeng, who has committed so many evil things, dies, he deserves it!"

"I heard that the Lan family has always been loyal to the high priest. Will the high priest really abandon the Lan family?"

These words came clearly into my ears on the wind.

Lan Yufeng looked at the two bowls of black medicinal juice and shook his head like a rattle.

"No, I don't want to eat!"

However, the two guards would not allow him to refuse.

He was forced to drink the third bowl of poison, and was about to drink the third bowl of antidote when his tense nerves finally broke.

He actually broke free from the guards and looked at Qu Li.

"Miss Qu, please save me!"

This poison was prepared by Qu Li herself, so she must have other ways to detoxify it.

Qu Li looked at him coldly, as if he was looking at a pile of garbage.

She is a doctor, and doctors are always committed to saving lives and healing the wounded, but she doesn't want to save Lan Yufeng, a man with evil intentions and cruelty.

The families of those he killed were watching below.

If she really saved him, she would be a rat crossing the street that everyone would shout and beat.

Seeing that she was completely indifferent, the hope in Lan Yufeng's heart gradually faded away, and the fear in his eyes was gradually replaced by deathly silence.

Just when he thought he was going to die miserably, Qu Li took half a step towards him.

It was this half step that rekindled the fire of hope in his heart.

"Are you willing to save me?"

People are like this. They used to hate someone with gnashing teeth, but when the other person becomes the only one who can save you, they will forget what vicious things they have done to you, and they will also forget that you became like this because of the other person's little tricks.

Lan Yufeng obviously forgot that Qu Li was the one who schemed against him bit by bit and pushed him into an irretrievable situation.

"Master Lan, everyone has to pay the price for their mistakes!"

Her words pointed out that he would end up like this because of the sins he had committed!

This included instigating the man in blue to deliberately stir up resentment between the high priest and the people.

Lan Yufeng opened his mouth and then kowtowed continuously, and soon his forehead was covered in blood.

"Ms. Qu, this is all my fault. I am willing to spend the rest of my life atonement!"

Qu Li's expression remained unchanged, but the onlookers sneered and roared angrily, not believing that a dog could change its habit of eating shit.

If this kind of demon is let go, more innocent people will inevitably be implicated.

Lan Yuqiao gripped the teacup tightly, her finger bones turning slightly white from the force.

Will Qu Li really save Lan Yufeng?

In fact, deep down she didn't want her useless brother to continue living.

Feeling the hostile gaze, Qu Li turned his head to look over.

The distance was too far, and she couldn't see clearly who was standing in front of the window.

She frowned and ignored it. She didn't have any enemies in Xiling, so she could roughly guess who it was.

"Master Lan, with your dull brain, you certainly couldn't have thought of such a method of trying to stir up conflict between the High Priest and the people, or even with the Emperor!"

Seeing Lan Yufeng's expression froze, Qu Li sighed, "He can use the High Priest to get rid of you and warn him at the same time. This person's methods are really quite clever!"
