She finally remembered that she had forgotten to take back the Bisha Life-Destroying Powder.
She carried the rice bowl and vegetables in her mouth and rushed out of the Qianhu House of Chengtian Gate. The snow was falling on the glass, and it was already the time to light the lamp in the palace. She jumped into the Shooting Palace like a mouse.
People like Liu Ruhai didn't actually see her at all. They only saw a ray of light passing before their eyes at the door of Qianhusuo.
He instantly noticed that after taking one bizhu, she seemed to have recovered a little more than usual.
It's more powerful than just one sword.
Shoot the palace.
There were no bodies on the ground.
In the dark, there is no one.
Did His Majesty die in the Yangxin Palace, or in some empress’s palace? She held the bowl, grabbed the chopsticks, and lay down behind His Majesty’s throne, thinking:
Yes, you must not be impulsive.
When His Majesty dies, even if the funeral is not announced secretly, the Queen is so shrewd that she will urgently summon the East Palace back to the capital.
Then, the important ministers will enter the palace.
At the very least, the hospital will be very noisy.
She swallowed and slowly took the rice into her mouth to calm herself down.
That's right, she should go to the Imperial Hospital to know the real situation. It's not okay to wander around in the palace looking for His Majesty's body like a headless chicken.
She calmly took the rice into her mouth and ate it all. There was also her favorite roast pork with eggplant in the bowl. It must not be wasted.
"……What are you doing?"
Liu Ruhai's confused voice suddenly sounded, and she was almost frightened to the point of shouting again.
At this moment, the lights in front of the palace gate flickered wildly.
With a creak, four eunuchs carrying lamps walked in, attracting a gentle and elegant nobleman in regular clothes.
Balls of golden and orange lights covered the floor, and the nobleman who walked into the palace was clearly His Majesty, Emperor Huiwen.
Cao Xiwan burst into tears for a moment.
Great! She is obviously an old yamen official who is cautious in everything, and there is no way she would make such a mistake.
She remembered that she had indeed forgotten to collect the poison, and she often wandered around the palace, but this did not mean that she was not a good person.
Liu Ruhai entered the Shooting Palace several times. At this time, he finally noticed that there seemed to be something abnormal in the Shooting Palace. It seemed that a very clever magic sect poison powder had been sprinkled. He gradually frowned, leaned behind the throne and asked her in a low voice: "Did you vote?"
poison?"
"...No. It's the best medicine." She concealed the truth with a guilty conscience.
Liu Ruhai actually didn't refute, because he could indeed tell that there seemed to be the last son of Tongtianchi Bizhu in the poison?
She shrank her head and pretended to be quail. She also took out another pack of Biying Palace's quicksand powder from her pocket, and pretended to sprinkle some on the side of the throne, "Does it smell a little bit? It's okay. Sprinkle more quicksand powder, and that's it.
The smell is gone too.”
It's not smelly at all. It's poison! Liu Ruhai thought to herself. She doesn't want to kill the king, does she?
Cao Xiwan shut up and shrank his head, pretending to be stupid without saying a word.
As long as you don't say anything, you can pretend it never happened. Yes, it can definitely be done.
After all, Bisha's deadly powder is made from the powder of Bizhu mixed with other six kinds of poisons beyond the Great Wall.
The name Bisha Life-Destroying Powder sounds very domineering and highly toxic. However, this poison is very special. It was specially made in the Demon Palace for the masters of assassination. Therefore, it is mixed with Bizhu powder to restrain the toxicity and make it difficult to detect.
.
This poisonous powder will slowly spread in the air and enter the body through the eyes.
A master like Eunuch Kai would have to stay in the Shooting Palace for at least half an hour before he could be poisoned. Even so, there is still a kind of person who will not be poisoned.
Such a person as Your Majesty.
Because he was born weak and had eye disease. The cause was liver meridian obstruction. His Majesty usually used a very precious eye ointment.
This kind of eye ointment will make it difficult for poisonous gas to enter your eyes.
When His Majesty was a child, just like Cao Xiwan when she first fell ill two years ago, she would occasionally lose her sight.
This is what Mr. Gu accidentally told her when he was treating her illness. He also gave her the eye ointment prescription used by His Majesty, Zhengui ointment.
She indeed forgot to collect the powder, but when she was poisoning and spreading the medicine in the Shooting Palace, she still subconsciously avoided His Majesty. She also calculated that the time the palace guests would stay in the Shooting Palace would not exceed half an hour.
Unless she deliberately set a trap, according to her plan, she would delay a top expert like Kai Kai for half an hour in the Shooting Palace.
She wiped the cold sweat from the fright and smiled happily, secretly feeling that although she was a little careless, she was really a loyal and good character.
However, the next moment, the lights danced, His Majesty the Emperor's face turned blue, and he fell heavily on the Shooting Hall.
"Go down and step back ten steps." Emperor Huiwen originally ordered as soon as he entered the palace door, "You are not allowed to come in without my order. Even if you hear strange noises, you are not allowed to come in."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Under the guidance of Deputy Director Su, two rows of green-robed eunuchs holding lanterns bowed and exited together, and the palace door closed again.
His Majesty held up his black fox robe and held a bright-horned palace lantern in his hand, and walked slowly for a few steps.
Somehow, he suddenly staggered and struggled to reach out to touch something in his arms. At this time, the lantern fell to the ground and the emperor fell heavily, falling in the center of the Shooting Hall.
Even Liu Ruhai was shocked when he saw this.
"His Majesty?"
She rushed out and reached out to help Emperor Hui Wen. Liu Ruhai stretched out his arms to stop him: "Don't touch him!"
How could she not help him? She wanted to save him, but she turned a deaf ear and rushed to help him.
"It seems like he's been infected with corpse poison!" he said anxiously.
With a bang, she threw the emperor away. Liu Ruhai, with quick eyes and quick hands, hugged His Majesty with both hands and looked at her in shock.
Cao Xiwan was horrified: "I am a patient. I am afraid of death."
"..." Liu Ruhai suddenly felt relieved.
Don't blame him for not being able to figure out the Qingluo female ghost in recent years. It's not that he is not as smart as the Qingluo female ghost. It's just that she is really weird.
Tonight, she came to the palace and ate half a bowl of rice. She looked at His Majesty with excitement and tears, rushed to help His Majesty with a loyal look on her face, and then threw His Majesty's head on the floor tiles.
Liu Ruhai pondered, comparing with her, he... is actually the loyal minister.
In his hand, he could hold the emperor's dragon head of His Majesty Hui Wen. Without him, His Majesty's head would have been smashed to the ground.
Cao Xiwan was indeed spying secretly.
At this moment, she was the only loyal minister, and King Qin relied on her to rescue him. It could be said that she was carrying the sun and moon on one shoulder, and turning the world around with both hands.
Once this is done, she can be called the number one devil in the world, and no one will dare to disobey her.
——She felt it was worth it to make His Majesty suffer a little grievance for the time being.
She had to find out whether Liu Ruhai was an undercover eunuch sent to Yanjing City by His Majesty Taizu, a secret assassin who was preparing to assassinate the rebel Prince Zhao. Or Liu Ruhai was an accomplice of Prince Zhao.
She looked at Liu Ruhai's profile.
He closed his eyes slightly and carefully diagnosed His Majesty's pulse. She stretched out her hand and lifted up the lantern that was rolling on the ground. In the translucent palace lantern shade, the flame burned straight and was reflected on the top of the palace.
There was silence in the palace.
Although the eunuchs outside heard the commotion, no one came near due to His Majesty's orders.
She sat on the ground and pondered, with the unconscious emperor left behind by her beside her. The emperor's dragon head was leaning on Liu Ruhai's arms.
Liu Ruhai actually looked like a loyal minister.
Cao Xiwan didn't think she was too disloyal at all, so she set off Liu Ruhai.
She thought that although she did bring food to the palace to eat, poisoned her, occasionally wandered around with a sword, whispered and screamed outside His Majesty's window, and abandoned His Majesty whenever she heard of an epidemic, this did not prevent her from being a loyal minister.
At least she didn't rebel at all.
Jiuxing made such weird words and said that she would kill kings and not just one emperor? She wouldn't believe it. She even gave the feathers of hundreds of birds to Donggong. Even she couldn't kill Donggong now.
A little difficult.
And what about Liu Ruhai?
If he is a real rebel, shouldn't he hope that His Majesty will die soon and welcome Prince Zhao to the capital to ascend the throne as the new emperor?
Fortunately, Cao Xiwan has a sharp vision, and this pretty boy looks like a rebel. He must be right.
