Chapter 99: The poisonous woman drinks poisonous wine, breaking her defense and refreshing
Suburbs of Beijing.
In the mountains.
A residential house somewhere.
The young people from Nanzhao who came from all over the world were still chatting.
Over the years, they have traveled all over the country, fighting for a better future for the Nanzhao people and for the revenge that may come at any time.
If it weren't for the imperial examination of all races, they didn't know when they would be able to get together.
Tomorrow they will go their separate ways again, and they are naturally reluctant to leave.
Although he was extremely sleepy, he still held his head open and talked about his past memories and what he had seen and heard in recent years, as if if he talked a little more, tomorrow would come later.
Unfortunately.
Tomorrow is tomorrow.
Tomorrow will come sooner or later.
So after three rounds of drinks, the young people went back to their rooms one after another to rest.
Wall top.
He Xifeng looked at these young people, tears moistened her eyes: "They are all lovely children. If it weren't for those murderous creatures of the Qin family, they should have been married and had children by now!"
Second Elder Yin Luo sighed softly, "Yes! Xuxu is just reaching the age. If Nanzhao was still around, she would have someone she loves."
He Xifeng turned her head and stared at him for a long time with cloudy eyes: "Second Elder, do you think that the princess no longer wants to seek revenge?"
Yin Luo frowned and pondered for a while, then said in a deep voice: "Now is indeed not the best time for revenge. Now that Nanwu City is controlled by Qin Muye, as long as a little bit of oil leaks out, our people will be well fed and well-dressed. If we think about revenge all the time and irritate Qin Muye, it will be bad for all of us."
"Have you eaten and drank enough?"
He Xifeng was a little annoyed: "There is an old saying in the Central Plains, which is called boiling a frog in warm water. Now we are the frog in the warm water. It is said that we are full and satisfied, but how much should we eat and drink to be considered full and satisfied? By then, our bodies will be full, but our bones will probably be soft!"
Yin Luo obviously disagreed: "If there is nothing to eat, how can we talk about revenge and restoration of the country?"
He Xifeng said in a deep voice: "As long as we can kill Qin and expand our territory, we can take advantage of the time when the various states are dividing up the Central Plains to get a piece of the pie. With the support of Baiyue, why can't we..."
"After we kill Qin Kaijiang, what cards do we have left? Why would the Baiyue people help us?"
"..."
"..."
He Xifeng and Yin Luo looked at each other, because the words just said were not said by one of them.
But...
They turned around quickly and saluted the person in the tree: "Princess! Why are you back?"
Bai Yuji looked at He Xifeng indifferently: "The Great Elder has made so many arrangements for me, how can I not report to him afterwards?"
He Xifeng looked at her flushed face and suddenly felt a sense of ecstasy in her heart.
But he still suppressed his emotions, lowered his head slightly and said: "Thank you for your hard work, Princess. It is my duty to do all this."
Yin Luo was a little confused: "This...Princess, what did you do again?"
Bai Yuji sneered, "I just found out about this as well. This matter is indeed very serious. We should let everyone know clearly. I'd like to trouble the Second Elder to call everyone out so that we can listen to the First Elder's plan to revive Nanzhao."
"This……"
He Xifeng's expression changed slightly: "Princess, this matter is not suitable for too many people to know, right?"
Bai Yuji asked back, "Such a big thing, is it only worthy of being known to the Great Elder?"
He Xifeng: “…”
Bai Yuji said in a deep voice: "Second Elder, go quickly!"
"Yes!"
Yin Luo also realized the seriousness of the matter and quickly called everyone to the courtyard.
He Xifeng stood there, feeling a little helpless.
Bai Yuji lightly jumped from the tree trunk to the top of the wall, turned sideways and glanced at her calmly: "It turns out that the Great Elder will feel guilty after doing something wrong!"
He Xifeng's face froze, and she couldn't help but get angry: "I'm not wrong, I just want to help the princess make the right decision!"
Bai Yuji snorted softly: "Save it for later and tell everyone!"
Say it.
Leaped directly into the courtyard.
He Xifeng felt a chill on her back. It was the first time she saw such a look in Bai Yuji's eyes.
She subconsciously wanted to jump to the other side of the wall.
When he turned around, he saw a figure sitting on a tree, looking at him quietly.
It’s the puppet beside Qin Muye.
Cultivation above the fourth level.
My own fighting power may not be lower than its.
But it is absolutely impossible to escape easily.
He Xifeng gritted her teeth and had no choice but to jump into the courtyard.
at this time.
Almost everyone is here.
Several elders and a group of young people came out of the house and saluted Bai Yuji respectfully.
Bai Yuji nodded slightly, sat in the main seat, and waited quietly for everyone to arrive.
Yin Xu rubbed her sleepy eyes and asked, "Princess, why are you back again? What happened?"
Seeing that everyone was present, Bai Yuji did not immediately say anything, but asked, "Xuxu, do you remember what your grandfather said during the dinner just now about our greatest achievement this year?"
Yin Xu glanced at Yin Luo and said quickly, "Of course, he controls Qin Muye, and indirectly controls the trade in Nanwu City. He can also bring our people out of the mountains of Baiyue to live a good life."
Bai Yuji asked again: "What if someone wants to destroy this harvest?"
Yin Xu said excitedly: "Then she is our enemy!"
He Xifeng's expression changed: "Princess..."
"Great Elder!"
Bai Yuji raised his voice a little: "It's not time for you to speak yet."
He Xifeng: “…”
Bai Yuji glanced at everyone and said, "I am very happy that everyone came back to help me in this imperial examination. I am glad that I made the right decision back then, so I can see real hope today. Xuxu, where does our hope come from?"
Yin Xu said as a matter of course: "Of course there are more and more capable people in our tribe!"
"Hasn't Baiyue been helping us all along?"
"of course not!"
Yin Xu shook his head and said angrily, "If we only rely on Baiyue, we would still be catching insects in the mountains to eat."
Bai Yuji smiled and nodded, then glanced at everyone: "Does everyone think so?"
Everyone looked at each other.
They all nodded.
Bai Yuji changed the subject: "But some people don't think so. Great Elder, tell me what you have done recently!"
Swish!
Swish!
Swish!
Everyone's eyes were focused on He Xifeng's face.
He Xifeng's expression became even uglier. She made up her mind and took a deep breath, saying, "I feel recently that the princess seems to be interested in Qin Muye..."
Bai Yuji interrupted mercilessly, "Great Elder, you probably didn't understand what I meant. I just asked you to report what you have done recently. Apart from that, don't say anything more."
He Xifeng's eyes twitched: "But..."
Bai Yuji interrupted again: "Second Elder!"
"exist!"
"We have been in Kyoto for three years. What is the third rule of the secret code that everyone must abide by?"
“When discussing something, you should first describe the thing itself, and then you can express your personal opinion.”
“Why would there be such a request?”
"Because everyone has their own subjective opinions, and it is very likely that they will make wrong judgments due to emotions, short-sightedness, or blindness."
"very good!"
Bai Yuji turned his gaze to He Xifeng again: "Great Elder, you can answer now. When did you decide to poison me? What kind of poison did you use? Who was your accomplice? What was your method? What was your purpose?"
"what?"
"This……"
"no!"
"Why?"
There was an uproar in the field, and everyone looked at He Xifeng, their eyes filled with shock and confusion.
The chief elder poisoned the princess.
Why!
He Xifeng was anxious: "Princess, I'm just looking at you..."
Bai Yuji's voice finally showed a hint of anger: "I ask! You answer! What kind of poison did you use on me!"
"Bewitched, bewitched!"
He Xifeng was forced to the point where she had no way out, so she just told him everything: "It was the eldest girl who drugged me, the love potion that the eldest girl drugged, the wine that I gave to the princess, and the love potion that I drugged Qin Mingri."
Every sentence was like a bomb, making everyone's heads buzz.
He Xifeng knew that the story couldn't stop here, so she quickly added: "The reason we did this is because we saw that the princess had fallen in love with Qin Muye. She had a ready-made person like Qin Mingri, but she insisted on waiting until the blood parasite transformed into a holy item.
The princess and Qin Muye's fake play became real, and her desire for revenge has been shaken. If she really becomes pregnant with Qin Muye's blood one day, can she still have the heart to refine the poison into one to kill Qin Kaijiang?
As a subject, I have the audacity to call myself half an elder. How can I watch the princess go astray? "
A generous output.
She was breathing heavily.
I feel so relieved! That's great!
Not interrupted.
I think everyone is convinced by me now!
However, this feeling of pleasure was quickly suppressed.
"Bastard!"
Yin Luo was shocked and angry: "Great Elder! The princess is willing to raise the Gu with her body, which is already a great sacrifice. Even if you want to change the candidate, it should be decided by the princess. You made the decision without informing the princess. Do you have any respect for the princess in your heart?"
Yin Xu also said angrily: "Yes! What do you think of the princess as?"
The fourth elder couldn't help it: "The princess's sacred blood poison will be ready soon, but you forced the princess to take such a big risk because of your personal imagination. Great elder, you really disappoint me."
Another young man said, "Yes! The princess has made great efforts to indirectly control the financial veins of the southwest. Our people have worked hard to live a good life. Why should we take such a risk?"
The Seventh Elder also had a gloomy look in his eyes: "Now our people are still eating insects in Baiyue. If we have a falling out with Qin Muye over this, do we have to continue eating insects for the next few years?"
He Xifeng was shocked.
I didn't expect that among so many people, not one supported me.
She felt angry. "Qin Muye, Qin Muye! You keep talking about Qin Muye, which shows how skilled he is. Have you forgotten that our Nanzhao was destroyed because of the Qin family? Now you are always thinking about the benefits you got from the Qin family. How can you take revenge when we are all softened by the golden nest and silver nest?"
The more he talked, the angrier he got.
By the end of his speech, his eyes were bloodshot.
Everyone subconsciously leaned back, firstly because she looked too scary, and secondly because what He Xifeng said did make some sense.
but.
Bai Yuji quickly asked, "So, after destroying all this, how do you think we should take revenge, Elder?"
He Xifeng said as a matter of course: "Of course we have to kill Qin Kaijiang. As long as he dies, the eldest lady will definitely help us restore our country! She helped us before, and this time we helped her so much..."
This time.
The person who was slightly shocked just now could no longer hold back.
Yin Xu, the youngest, was so angry that he slammed the table and said, "Grand Elder! The eldest lady did help us a little, but to what extent? Did she send all of our people to the mountains to eat insects?
That year, we, Nanzhao, were betrayed by all our allies, including Baiyue, who also divided up several of our Nanzhao cities!
I don’t deny that the eldest girl helped us, but we even gave them the city as compensation. Do we have to kneel down to thank her?
I remember when the princess brought us out, the eldest girl strongly objected.
When the princess sent us out to travel, she sold all her family property, but the eldest girl did not ask for a penny from Baiyue.
Aren’t they just afraid that we will escape from their control?
They even try to stop us from training talented people.
Why does the Great Elder think that Baiyue will help us restore our country?"
"you you you you……"
He Xifeng's eyes widened, she was extremely puzzled: "How could you think that?"
Yin Xu snorted, "Because the money I used for traveling these years was all given by the princess. I know how hard it is for the princess! I also know that when you go out without money, you don't even have the qualifications to learn skills from others."
As soon as these words came out.
The other young men nodded.
He Xifeng was completely stunned. She had never expected that no one would speak up for her today.
And the reason for all this is because of the travel money?
She was very angry.
But there was more panic.
Because she found that she was completely unable to refute.
Having lived for so many years, she rarely feels that she has done anything wrong, so she can do many things calmly.
But this time.
Everyone looked at her coldly.
No matter how conceited you are, you can't avoid feeling guilty.
But He Xifeng was still unwilling: "Princess! Do you dare to say that you are against Qin..."
Bai Yuji interrupted, "Great Elder, have you ever thought about why there are seven of us, but the eldest sister only contacts you secretly?"
"why?"
"Because you only have the qualifications and skills to be an elder, but you don't have the wisdom to match. Any other elder would never do such a foolish thing!"
"???"
"You are no longer fit to stay here."
Bai Yuji took out a jade bottle from his bosom, uncorked it and placed it steadily on the table: "Take it and leave!"
When He Xifeng smelled the medicine wafting from the jade bottle, her face suddenly changed drastically.
This medicine is enough to destroy all her cultivation and turn her into an ordinary person. She won't even be able to keep the poisonous insects warm in the future.
To abolish one's cultivation and be exiled back to one's hometown is the punishment for those who have committed serious crimes.
"Princess! I, I won't go back!"
"I didn't ask you to go back. It's not appropriate for you to interact with the tribe members now."
"Then I..."
"You still believe that doing things for Baiyue is the right thing to do, so you should go to your elder sister and see if she will help you like she did before."
"..."
He Xifeng was completely panicked, and quickly looked at Yin Luo for help: "Second Elder..."
Yin Luo felt a little reluctant.
But still turned his face away.
He knew that Bai Yuji was right. If He Xifeng stayed in Kyoto, she would only cause trouble. If she retained her cultivation, she would still not be content.
It would be even scarier to go back to the mountains, as she would only influence everyone with her extreme and wrong ideas.
After a while, the clansmen will move to Nanwu City. Although there will be people from many countries here in the future, it is still within the territory of Qian Kingdom.
Once the tribesmen are incited to hatred, they will surely face a catastrophic disaster.
Stupid is not bad.
But stupid is worse than bad.
Letting He Xifeng go to Baiyue to sober up is actually the right choice.
But the result will definitely not be good.
After all the Nanzhao people moved out of Baiyue in April, the two sides basically formally severed ties.
Even if Xu Yuyao still had some tenderness towards her, an old man with no cultivation and depressed mood would not live for too long.
Seeing Yin Luo avoiding his gaze.
He Xifeng became increasingly flustered and quickly looked at other people.
But her gaze was like a plague, making everyone avoid her.
At this moment, she felt like she was falling into an ice cellar.
"You, you guys..."
She is not afraid of death.
But this feeling of being abandoned by everyone made her feel worse than death.
She turned around, hoping to see a look of pity on Bai Yuji's face.
Bai Yuji just pushed the medicine bottle in front of her: "Grand Elder, please!"
He Xifeng's breathing stopped instantly.
She felt that the world was quiet, with only the buzzing sound from inside her head occupying all her hearing.
slowly.
Her body began to tremble, and her right hand slowly reached for the medicine bottle.
But when he was about to touch it, he suddenly retracted and took out another medicine bottle from his arms.
She looked grim: "I'd rather die than be abused like this."
Yin Luo was startled: "Big..."
Bai Yuji shook her head at him, stopping him from stopping, and still looked at He Xifeng calmly.
He Xifeng: “???”
She didn't expect that Bai Yuji really had no intention of stopping her at all.
Now, she regretted taking out the bottle of medicine.
It’s better not to pay.
Now take it out.
There is an old saying in the Central Plains: Now that we are here...
The atmosphere was so tense that she could only grit her teeth and drink it all.
Poison enters the stomach.
She could no longer suppress the anger and resentment in her heart: "Princess! Although I die today, I have no regrets at all, because I am the only one who truly hopes for the revival of Nanzhao and revenge!
You hate me!
It just means I did the right thing!
I have calculated your menstrual period. If you give your body to Qin Mingri today, you will definitely be able to conceive a child of the Qin family.
This is the decision I made for you!
It was me who rescued you from the hell of Qin Muye!
You fools, you are accusing me of this crime today!
I won't blame you, I will just wait for your apology in my grave!"
Bai Yuji looked at her with increasing disappointment and shook her head helplessly: "In fact, after Qin Mingri returned home, he immediately gave the drugged clothes to Qin Muye. Great Elder, you... did not succeed."
He Xifeng: “???”
No, it's not?
"puff!"
