Chapter 331: The Endless Hatred in Wanchun Palace
Chapter 331: The Endless Hatred in Wanchun Palace
Old Yu put away the healing plaster and asked, "How do you feel now?"
"fine."
Jiang Yuan stood up, shook his muscles, and said awkwardly: "...I just had a nightmare."
Yu Lao: “I can see that.”
"Hahaha!"
Seeing Jiang Yuan in such a miserable state, Zhong Liang was overjoyed, and said proudly with his hands on his hips:
"With your character, you're still blaming me? I'm the one who saved you at the critical moment!"
Jiang Yuan was stunned by what he said, and Huo Hu explained: "At that time, you were knocked unconscious by Jiang Ran, and fell from the beam. You were almost bitten by the prince, and it was General Zhong who rushed over to save you."
This is so touching.
Jiang Yuan's peach blossom eyes suddenly opened wide, and he said with tears in his eyes:
"Thank you, Sister Zhong, for saving my life!"
"I didn't expect that although you are arrogant, you still have a sister in your heart. I want to be your sister in the next life!"
Zhong Liang was so disgusted that he got goosebumps and cursed, "Get lost! Who wants to be your sister? Don't f*cking disgust me!!"
Seeing that Jiang Yuan had recovered his spirit, Huo Hu started talking about business.
"We have good news and bad news here, which one do you want to hear first?"
Jiang Yuan: "I like sweet food, let's talk about the bad ones first."
"The bad news is that we accidentally broke the load-bearing pillar just now, and the entire Ci Ling Palace collapsed. The tomb mound outside also collapsed in half. We had a hard time escaping."
Jiang Yuan looked around. They were now on the southwest side of the tomb palace, next to them was a large area of rubble and palace ruins. No wonder they looked so dirty.
But in this round, they killed a large number of royal heirs and successfully made the emperor childless, which might not be a bad thing.
Jiang Yuan asked: "What about the Queen Mother?"
Everyone shook their heads, and Yu Lao sighed, "The collapse was so severe that no one noticed it, so he must have been buried underneath."
Jiang Yuan looked at the collapsed ruins for a moment, then asked, "What's the good news?"
"We caught Jiang Ran."
Jiang Yuan was surprised.
Then Huo Hu picked up a bottle at his feet and showed it to him.
This is a detention prop, the size of a beer bottle, in the shape of a long teardrop, and made of crystal clear material.
A thumb-sized girl was squatting in the bottle's belly, kicking and hitting the bottle wall, screaming non-stop. When she saw Jiang Yuan, she got angry and stuck out her tongue, making an extremely ugly face.
It’s Jiang Ran!
Jiang Yuanqi asked, "How did you catch her?"
Huo Hu said: "When we saw you were tricked, we didn't dare to get close to you and almost let her escape. But the palace collapsed at that time and she was blocked by several huge rocks. I caught her by surprise and put her in the bottle."
Jiang Yuan felt comfortable.
Although this trip was terrible, at least we captured a high-quality hostage.
Just as they were about to leave----
Dongdong--
Boom boom boom-----
Boom boom boom boom----!
The friction of armor made a dull sound, and heavy footsteps sounded one after another.
"It's the guards."
Jiang Yuan said: "They must have heard us and are here to arrest us. Let's go!"
Huo Hu quickly put the bottle into his robe, packed up everything, and everyone ran away.
When the Royal Guards arrived, all they could see were their small figures disappearing into the green mist.
"over there!"
"Hurry up!!!"
The four of them ran as fast as lightning.
Especially Mr. Yu.
With the help of the foot strengtheners provided by Huo Hu, his leg strength was restored to the peak state of his youth, and he was far ahead of the three juniors!
But just as everyone ran to a narrow road----
At the end of the narrow passage, the footsteps of the guards were heard.
The footsteps of the guards could also be heard at the narrow intersection.
Being attacked from both sides and about to be surrounded, the four men quickly climbed up the dark red palace wall and jumped into a nearby palace, thus escaping danger.
"Who?"
A cry of surprise was heard in the palace.
A young palace maid holding clothes stared at the four strange men falling from the sky and said in fear:
“You…you guys are…!?”
She was about to scream, but Jiang Yuan was quick-witted and rushed over, covering her mouth with one hand and striking her on the back of the neck with the other, knocking her unconscious on the spot and throwing her to the ground.
The crisis is finally over.
Everyone was relieved.
They had been to this palace not long ago.
It was Wanchun Palace where the palace maid Lan Cui worked, and the territory of Concubine Wan, the most favored by the emperor.
The palace was clean and tidy, with a warm atmosphere, which was much more comfortable than it looked from the outside.
Zhong Liang thought for a long time before saying, "I don't have much impression of this place. I guess it was just a background board in the original version."
Everyone nodded and planned to hide here for a while and wait until the guards left before going out.
Just at this moment, the sound of water was heard in the hall, followed by a lazy female voice.
"Ah Shu, I asked you to get some clothes, why haven't you come back for so long?"
It's the imperial concubine taking a bath.
Everyone was alert again.
Jiang Yuan raised his voice and imitated the voice of a palace maid, "I'll be right there!"
As he said this, he picked up the gorgeous robe on the ground and prepared to enter the bedroom.
But Zhong Liang grabbed him and asked suspiciously, "Hey, do you want to go in and watch the imperial concubine take a bath?"
"What do you think I am, sister?"
Jiang Yuan cried out that he was wronged and explained, "I just went in to deliver the clothes to prevent her from getting suspicious and shouting, which would attract the pursuers."
This is also true.
To avoid accidents, everyone followed him and entered the Wanchun Palace together.
As soon as the carved wooden door opened, dense steam rushed in, covering everyone's face.
Jiang Yuan frowned, sensing something strange.
There isn't even a hint of rotten smell in this room?
How strange.
In the palace of the favored concubine, warm rosy-colored tents were hung in the air, deer and crane candlesticks were eye-catching, vases and porcelains were everywhere, silks and treasures were everywhere, it was extremely luxurious, like a rare treasure house, in sharp contrast to the previous decadent palaces, and it was dazzling.
The candlelight is dim.
Behind the mica and mother-of-pearl screen, a plump human figure sways, looking graceful and noble.
There were no other servants here, and the four of them sneaked up on him. When Jiang Yuan was thinking about how to deal with this imperial concubine, his legs suddenly went weak, and he staggered forward a few steps and fell to the ground with a thud.
Bang---!
The three people behind him hadn't reacted yet and they also felt dizzy and fell down one after another unexpectedly.
Bang-!
Boom-!
BANG---!
Several people slumped on the carpet, wanting to move but unable to, twisting and turning, as weak as four snakes that had just transformed.
Zhong Liang raised his head with great effort, gritted his teeth and asked, "What... happened?"
Jiang Yuan said softly, "Poisoned."
Zhong Liang said excitedly: "I know! You are as soft as a loach! Can you not be so relaxed?! What kind of poison is this? When was it administered? How was it administered?!"
"How would I know?"
Jiang Yuan continued to be soft and moved his head to ask the murderer behind the screen:
"Could you please tell me something, Madam Concubine?"
The matter is very clear.
They thought they were hunters, but unfortunately they fell into the trap of the real hunters.
"hehe."
The imperial concubine's sweet laughter could be heard from behind the screen.
"Sir, you are so smart, can't you see it?"
This imperial concubine actually also knew Jiang Yuan.
The woman stepped out of the bathtub with her bare feet touching the ground and her delicate hands stretched out. She pulled a thin embroidered shirt over her body and slowly walked out from behind the screen.
The candlelight penetrated the mist, casting a soft light on everything.
This Concubine Wan was completely different from the previous concubines who were rotting and full of worms.
She has a dignified and graceful appearance, with long flowing hair, a plump figure, delicate skin, round and smooth cheeks, and is wearing a colorful brocade robe. Her every move reveals the calm and elegance of someone who has long held a high position, like an ancient fairy in a painting.
Looking at the water vapor around her, Huo Hu suddenly had an idea and said:
"You poisoned your own bath water?"
"Yes."
Concubine Wan smiled gracefully and pointed at her body.
"This poison is called [Endless Hate]. I used myself as a medium, collected thousands of natural treasures, and painstakingly prepared it. It will melt when it comes into contact with water. It is colorless, tasteless, and invisible. It corrodes the bones and soul. There is no medicine that can cure it, and no medicine can save it."
So from the moment they walked in and were hit by the steam in the face, they had already been tricked.
The tables are turned.
Now Jiang Yuan and others have become salted fish on the chopping board, and the imperial concubine has become the knife.
"I have devoted myself to developing this poison for ten years, just so that I can seek revenge on you one day."
Concubine Wan raised her voice, stared at Jiang Yuan, and said word by word:
"Lord Son of God."
It’s poisonous. Very poisonous.
She went to so much trouble and effort to study it, it's no wonder Jiang Yuan didn't notice it.
The Son of God looked up at the poisonous woman, his eyes slowly widened, as if he thought of something, and his expression suddenly became ugly.
"You are?!"
Zhong Liang said: "So, which old enemy of yours is this?"
"It's the Poison Immortal Wankan!"
Jiang Yuan was rarely serious. He collapsed to the ground and recalled in a deep voice:
"She was originally a maiden from Nile City, named Wan-tsai. She was born into a noble family, but she was cruel and unruly, and she looked down on everything.
In order to join the Wandu Gu Sect, she poisoned her entire family. Ten years after joining the sect, in order to prove her truth, she poisoned the entire sect again and became the number one poison fairy in heaven and earth.
In order to defeat her, I once became her teacher for a day and tasted a lot of poisons. I didn't expect to meet her again here after so many years."
She is actually a real poisonous woman!
Everyone's heart sank.
"Well said, very good."
Concubine Wan clapped her hands repeatedly, and after praising him with satisfaction, she immediately said angrily:
"But you guessed wrong!"
Jiang Yuan: ...
The poisonous woman swung her hand, and the nail polish filled with poison stretched out and touched the tops of the heads of Yu Lao, Huo Hu and Zhong Liang. If she used a little more force, she could poison them to death on the spot.
She smiled sinisterly and said, "Sir, you still have three chances. Why don't you guess again, who am I?"
Three people:? ? ?
No, big sister?
He forgot why you killed us?!
But Jiang Yuan thought about it again and again, and finally turned his head and looked at his three teammates with a little regret:
"EMMMMMMMMMMM......"
The three of them were scared crazy!
You're so guilty!
Think about it quickly, damn!
