Chapter 117 You really don't know how to live or die

There were many people drinking tea on the first floor. Seeing this battle, everyone stood up in shock.

There were footsteps coming from the stairs, reaching the second floor and gradually approaching the private room where Yan Li was.

Then the waiter's voice sounded: "Sir, this is it."

Yan Li's eyebrows moved slightly, and she turned her head to look casually.

It happened that the door of the private room was pushed open, and a man in rich clothes came into view. He had a handsome and gentle face, but his eyes were a bit sinister.

Seeing Yan Li and Ming Qi, he smiled coldly: "Princess Nanyang is having a secret meeting with a foreigner in public?"

If he thought he would see the uneasy expression on Yan Li's face when he said these words, then he was obviously wrong.

Just as he was looking at Ming Qi with squinted eyes, Yan Li said lazily: "Who does this princess have a private meeting with, and needs you, a nobody like you, to mind your own business?"

The sinister man's face darkened, and anger flashed in his eyes.

Nobody?

Later, let her see who the unknown person is.

The man suppressed his anger and walked into the private room.

Several followers outside immediately closed the door and blocked the door tightly, obviously intending to trap Yan Li here.

I don’t know if the next step is to let more people come over and see this scene to prove the crime of Yan Li having a secret meeting with her foreigner, or if she wants to use this as a handle to blackmail something.

Yan Li looked calm and calm, and even had a smile on her lips, seemingly without any scruples.

Seeing her expression, the sinister man said coldly: "Isn't Princess Nanyang worried that the Ninth Prince will know about this scene?"

"It's broad daylight now." Yan Li pointed to the bright sun outside the window, "There should be a lot of eyeliners in the Ninth Prince's Palace. Since I dare to do this, I naturally don't worry about Mu Cang knowing about it."

Before she got married, she actually called the Ninth Prince by his first name, which obviously surprised him.

The man's expression changed slightly, and his eyes became darker: "In that case, will you send someone to inform the Ninth Prince now and ask him to come and see you in person?"

Yan Li raised his hand: "Please."

The man sneered, thinking that Yan Li was pretending to be calm and was about to call someone.

"Wait a minute." Ming Qi said slowly, "This young master came up with the attitude of asking for accusations and threats. Isn't it a little impolite?"

The sinister man thought he had been tricked, and the gloomy look in his eyes relaxed slightly, and he smiled resolutely: "I wonder what you want?"

"At least you should give your name first." Ming Qi said, "That way if I accidentally kill someone later, I can know who I killed."

The man's smile froze and his eyes turned cold: "You really don't know how to live or die."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ming Qi waved his sleeves casually.

There is a fragrance in the air.

Probably because the fragrance smelled so good, the man didn't notice it for a while, but he was shocked to feel a sharp pain in his heart after a while.

He suddenly covered his chest and turned pale: "You...you poisoned me?"

"The person who doesn't care about life and death is obviously not me, nor Princess Nanyang." Ming Qi smiled warmly, but his voice contained a hint of refusal, "Give me your name."

"You are so brave." The man gritted his teeth, frightened and angry, with a trace of uneasiness that could not be traced. "I am the Prime Minister's legitimate son, you dare to poison me?"

The prime minister’s legitimate son?

"It turns out to be Mr. Gu." Yan Li raised her eyebrows slightly and leaned against the window. "I wonder if I am doing this today to seek justice for my sister, or to pave the way for His Highness the Fourth Highness?"

This person is indeed Gu Heyu, the son of Prime Minister Gu.

A few days ago, under the secret order of the fourth prince, I left the imperial city in the name of visiting a famous teacher, but in fact, I was secretly seeking the support of the aristocratic family on behalf of the fourth prince.

After returning to Beijing, she learned that something big had happened in her family. Her beloved sister had been given to Mu Wenxuan, the fallen prince of Prince Yu's palace, and had even passed through the palace.

There is no chance to regret it.

Gu Heyu learned in shock and anger that the affair between An Xian and Mu Wenxuan was planned by Yan Li.

It was also because of Yan Li that Prince Yu lost power and was demoted.

The eighth princess Mu Yunzhu was reprimanded by the emperor also because of Yan Li.

Gu Heyu, who didn't know the inside story, was so angry that he wanted to rush to the Jiang family to seek justice for his sister, but his father and mother stopped him in time.

They said that Yan Li was favored by the emperor.

At this juncture, unless there is conclusive evidence to convict her, we cannot confront her head-on.

Hearing these words, Gu Heyu was about to laugh out loud. How could an orphan girl who was living in the shelter of others still fight head-on?

Is she worthy?

But he knew his father was right.

Since this woman was favored by the emperor, there must be at least one conclusive crime before she could be put to death.

Today is the best opportunity.

As a woman who was about to marry the Ninth Prince, Qingtian Bairi openly had a secret teahouse with her foreign husband, which was simply shameless.

If the Ninth Prince knew of such an unruly behavior, I don't know how angry the Ninth Prince would be.

However, what Gu Heyu didn't expect was that Yan Li didn't panic at all after being caught on the spot having a private meeting with a strange man.

His calm and composed appearance is really admirable, and he can even express his purpose in one sentence.

I have to say, there is indeed some motivation.

"Miss Yan is indeed smart." Gu Heyu's voice became colder, "So you should know that things will not be good today."

Yan Li hummed indifferently: "What do you want?"

"Miss Yan, are you scared?"

"You're thinking too much." Yan Li's voice was lazy and a bit mocking, "I just want to hear your clumsy plan."

Gu Heyu was furious: "Yan Li, don't be so proud! If you dare to scheme against An Xian, I will never let you go easily...ah!"

A scream suddenly sounded, and Gu Heyu curled up in pain.

Bang.

The door was suddenly pushed open, and the followers rushed in: "Young Master!"

The two of them supported Gu Heyu and anxiously checked on his condition. Several others drew their swords and stared at Ming Qi and Yan Li with eager eyes.

"Your eldest son has been poisoned." Ming Qi smiled leisurely, "I just developed this poison. I haven't had time to think of a name yet, but I can share the symptoms with you."

"When you are angry, your internal organs will be in severe pain, making you want to live."

"When you are in childbirth, your whole body will hurt, especially in the joints between your bones. The pain will make you roll around. It lasts for about an hour and seriously affects your sleep."

"It hurts when the weather is too cold, and it hurts when the weather is too hot."

"In short, pain is a symptom that can appear anytime and anywhere. I suggest you take him back as soon as possible and ask a few doctors with skilled medical skills to examine him to see if they can prepare an antidote."

His tone of voice was neither fast nor slow, and there was no anger at all.

Gu Heyu, who was being supported by two attendants, was in so much pain that he could not speak. His face was pale and twisted, and veins were protruding on his forehead.

Several attendants were anxious and angry for a moment, and some could not make up their minds.

One of them lowered his head and asked for instructions: "Master, what should we do now?"

Gu Heyu gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "Take... take them... to the Prime Minister's Mansion..."

"yes."

"I'm afraid I can't help you." After Ming Qi finished speaking, he raised his hand and flicked his sleeves.

Gu Heyu roared: "Hold your breath!"

But it was too late.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a thump, thump, thump.
