Chapter 71: The Feast of the Hung Gate
72_72998 He had long known that Yang Haolong wanted to kill him, he thought it was just talking, but after experiencing the scene just now, he realized that what she said was true.
"If I have the chance, I hope I can do it myself!"
"I'm going to kill you!"
……
It turns out that those words are not just words!
Thinking of this, Wang Jiahong only felt a dry pain in his throat, and he felt that even if the dagger was really stabbed on his body, I am afraid that it would not be one ten-thousandth of the pain in his heart!
"It's not a joke, it's good luck for you to hide this time, but I will never give up!"
For failure, Yang Haolong did not feel discouraged, and she did not expect to be able to kill that man at once, she had time, as long as she was alive, as long as she still had a breath, she would definitely realize what she said at the beginning.
She will definitely kill him with her own hands!
Let him also feel what it means to feel pain through his heart and what it means to feel pain to the bone.
The pain in the body alone is not enough.
This man is the nightmare of her life, if she can't get rid of it with her own hands, I'm afraid she will never be able to live a normal life and have her own happiness.
Yang Haolong wiped the dagger in his hand and put it back in his sleeve, while looking coldly at the man not far from him.
The reason why she will take it back is because once she loses a chance, then wanting to use this way to attack Wang Jiahong again will definitely make the latter wary, and she doesn't plan to continue, there are many ways, she can take her time.
Looking at the man who stood in place silently and didn't know what he was thinking, a cold killing intent crossed the depths of Yang Haolong's eyes.
As long as she still has a breath left, she will kill him with her own hands at any chance and price!
That back image often appeared in her dreams like a nightmare, and every appearance would bring her endless painful memories, and with him, she would never be free, never happy!
Therefore, in order to be free in the future, in order to be able to stay with the man she really likes, and in order not to repeat the mistakes of the previous life, she must kill him with her own hands!
She must put an end to this nightmare that haunts her with her own hands!
Wang Jiahong's face was as depressed as the cloudy weather, but those eyes searched Yang Haolong's face several times and didn't find any different feelings, and the loss in his heart was like sea water completely submerging it.
"Alas......"
The soft sigh didn't attract much attention in this wide room, Yang Haolong just lightly retracted the dagger into his sleeve, and turned around to push the wheelchair out of here.
There are still a lot of things to do next, and it is naturally impossible for me to continue to waste time with this person, without that time, and there is no need for that.
Watching Yang Haolong's figure gradually move away, until it finally disappeared in front of his eyes, Wang Jiahong's slender fingers gently twisted the severed hair that had been cut off, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his deep eyes.
Just when Wang Jiahong got up and was about to chase after Yang Haolong's figure, a black shadow suddenly appeared at the door of the room, quickly moved to Wang Jiahong's face, and knelt down respectfully.
"Lord, there is news from southern Xinjiang, which is said to be related to ancient poisons."
The black shadow knelt on the ground respectfully and said to Wang Jiahong word by word.
Wang Jiahong, who was originally indifferent, finally had a crack when he heard the word ancient poison, and finally, after listening to the report of the man in black, it became a faint excitement.
According to the news, there is a mysterious tribe in the deep mountains of southern Xinjiang, and in that tribe there is an elderly wizard who accidentally discovered a magical herb when he went into the mountains to collect medicine, no matter what poison can be cured.
In his early years, the wizard had traveled all over the world, and he also had some understanding of the ancient poison of the Dead Dynasty, and even obtained the ancient poison by chance.
After a long period of research and research, the wizard actually found a way to alleviate the onset of the ancient poison by mistake, and it was even possible to unravel the ancient poison.
This news was obtained by the spies sent by the Demon Palace to secretly collect relevant information, but because the southern Xinjiang area has been surrounded by miasma for a long time, it is difficult for ordinary people to approach, let alone enter.
This time, it seems that I can only do it myself!
Wang Jiahong made up his mind in his heart, and his eyes became extremely firm, this time, no matter what accidents or difficulties will happen, he must also get this possible solution to the ancient poison for Long'er!
Although this matter needs to be dealt with by himself, the scene in Chu State is not completely controlled now, not to mention that he is not at ease to let Yang Haolong be in this situation alone.
"You go down and prepare first, and the deity will set off in a few days."
After helping Yang Haolong solve the matter here, he will go to Southern Xinjiang to find a way to completely solve the ancient poison for his dragon!
The sun is setting towards the horizon, and the night is silently occupying this piece of the world.
The lights in the Qifeng Palace illuminate the huge palace transparently, and the ornaments carved with exquisite gems shine brightly under the light.
The main seat in the center of the front hall is the position of the Empress Dowager and Chu Chenxuan, and not far from the main seat there are two tables relatively placed, which are also full of various dishes and fresh fruits.
Because the Empress Dowager set it as a family banquet, only Wang Jiahong and Yang Haolong came, and their respective attendants were also arranged elsewhere.
The scene of singing and dancing has reached an extreme here, and the singers who performed were very hardworking, dancing and singing with a heart that was a hundred times higher than the enthusiasm in normal days.
After such an experience, everyone's admiration for Yang Haolong in the palace rose to a new height again, and those singers surrounded Yang Haolong with a longing heroic gaze, and their admiration was overflowing.
The dinner party was also held in such a harmonious atmosphere for most of the time, and finally, under the gentle wave of the Empress Dowager's hand, the courtesans all stopped singing and dancing and quietly retreated.
"Long Xiang, this time I was able to survive the crisis safely, thanks to your timely arrival, the mourning family will first toast you for the emperor!"
As she spoke, the Empress Dowager picked up the wine glass in front of her, raised it towards Yang Haolong, and took the lead in taking a sip, looking at Yang Haolong with a smile in her eyes.
Regarding the Empress Dowager's slightly respectful move, Yang Haolong was at ease, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong, he had been running back and forth for this matter for so many days, and he didn't know how many portals he had cleared, even if he accepted it, it was not a big deal.
"These are all things that the prime minister should do, after all, the prime minister is still the prime minister of the Chu State."
After Yang Haolong finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it all as soon as he raised his head, and glanced at the Empress Dowager with a light smile, but he was surprised to find that the latter was unwilling to pass by in his eyes, and he couldn't help sneering in his heart.
She said how could this woman be so respectful today, although she didn't dare to show anything in front of her on weekdays, but she didn't have the same respect as today, it turned out to be pretended!
Although it was just a flash, it was that unwillingness or Yang Haolong's full view, but she just smiled at this, after all, she didn't bother to deal with this kind of woman who only used intrigues and tricks to make small troubles.
For Yang Haolong's indifferent acceptance, although the Empress Dowager was unwilling, in order to avoid more embarrassment, she quickly turned the topic to the side, picked up the full wine glass, and raised her hand in the direction of Wang Jiahong.
"This time, thanks to Your Excellency's help, the mourning family also toasts you."
After speaking, he still took the lead in drinking the wine, and looked at Wang Jiahong with a light smile, as if he was observing the latter's reaction.
"I'm just here because I'm worried about Long'er, and other things are not for the Chu State as the Empress Dowager thinks, but since the Empress Dowager is so polite, it's hard for the deity to refuse."
As he spoke, he raised the wine glass in front of him, took a symbolic sip and put it down, but his eyes were cast in the direction of Yang Haolong with a smile.
For Wang Jiahong's gaze, Yang Haolong directly chose to ignore it, so he didn't find the joy in those eyes that almost overflowed because of excitement, she didn't know that Wang Jiahong had received a way to solve the ancient poison, so she didn't care about anything.
Another reason is that Chu Chenxuan didn't know when he walked down from the height, so he squeezed into her arms, like a coquettish child, and begged Yang Haolong to give him food.
Just when Yang Haolong was not paying attention, Chu Chenxuan drank two more glasses of fruit wine, and the result became what it is now, with a blushing smile and a silly smile, it was obvious that he had drunk too much!
Seeing Chu Chenxuan writhing like a little earthworm in Yang Haolong's arms, a trace of jealousy flashed in the eyes of the Empress Dowager who was sitting on a high place, and the fire of jealousy seemed to have taken root in her heart, almost burning her heart through.
This child, who is not so close to herself as a biological mother, now seems to be so harmonious with an outsider, how can she bear this feeling of being isolated!
Fortunately, she has already begun to prepare to get rid of this thorn in her eye, and now watching the scene of her laughing and playing with her son, that jealousy has finally calmed down a little.
She's going to die anyway, and she'll never have a chance to see this kind of scene again, so let her be happy for a while!
Thinking like this, the Empress Dowager was completely unaware of the nails that were clenched tightly in her hands by her tremendous strength, and the armor left a bright red mark in the palm of her hand, and the tingling sensation finally made her wake up from her jealous anger.
"Long Xiang, you have worked too hard for Chu and Xuan'er, and the mourning family will give you another drink!"
As he spoke, he actually got up from his seat, personally walked up to Yang Haolong, picked up the empty wine glass, filled it with wine himself, and was about to hand it over.
Looking at the grateful face of the Empress Dowager, Yang Haolong did not have any emotion in his heart, on the contrary, he had a feeling of coldness.
A femme fatale woman personally pours you wine, when she is clamoring to kill herself, but on the other hand, she must treat herself respectfully, such a woman is really terrible!
Yang Haolong lowered his head and looked at the little guy in his arms, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily floated a smile, a smile from the heart.
"Benxiang is willing to do this, not to be loyal to the Chu State, but because Benxiang likes this child, so it's better not to make a mistake about the Empress Dowager."
Because it was the Empress Dowager who personally poured the wine and handed it over, the posture was also very respectful, and she bent down slightly, and it was precisely this posture that cut off the sight from behind.
Yang Haolong, who lowered his head to look at Chu Chenxuan, naturally didn't see it, the Empress Dowager's hand, which was originally holding the wine glass, paused slightly when her fingernails were scratched, and some fine white powder was quickly sprinkled in, and it quickly dissolved.
Yang Haolong took the glass of wine without looking at it, and was about to put it to his lips, but was interrupted by a milky voice, and the hand holding the wine glass was also put down again, and put the wine glass on the table.
And as the wine glass was placed on the table, there was the slightly nervous gaze of the Queen Mother.
"Long Xiang, I'm thirsty, I want to eat wine!"
The little face stained by the intoxicating red was looking at Yang Haolong with a stupid smile, and a pair of white and tender little hands were also tightly grasping Yang Haolong's neck, like a small animal.
Yang Haolong couldn't resist Chu Chenxuan's coquettish offensive, and raised his hand to prepare to pick up the wine glass on the table, this little guy is too, it seems that the amount of wine is still quite good.
And the Queen Mother's heart was completely raised in her throat, and what she had just put down in the wine glass was crane top red, which was legendary and poisonous in the stomach!
Watching the wine glass gradually approach, at the moment when Chu Chenxuan stretched out his hand towards the wine glass, the Empress Dowager's face changed sharply, and she suddenly waved her sleeves and knocked the wine glass aside, the wine spilled out, and when the acrid white mist and hissing sounded, the hardest marble floor was also corroded into a deep dent.
If this glass of wine is in the stomach, let alone through the intestines, I am afraid that just a little bit will be a miserable death!
It happened too fast, and when he saw the place where the white smoke and the pungent smell were shining, and when he looked at Chu Chenxuan, who had been frightened to the point of turning pale in his arms, a cold killing intent rose in his heart.
This glass of wine was originally meant to be given to himself, but he was almost fed to Chu Chenxuan by himself!
Yang Haolong can't tell now that the anger in his heart is because the Empress Dowager wants to harm herself and poison her anger, or because she is afraid that she is almost going to kill Xiao Xuanzi with her own hands.
All in all, she is very angry now, looking at the Empress Dowager's expression almost tearing her apart, and the strong killing intent in her eyes almost suffocates the Empress Dowager.
As early as the moment when the Empress Dowager knocked the wine glass out, Wang Jiahong realized that something had changed, and when the wine glass had not yet landed, he instantly appeared behind Yang Haolong, protected her, and stared at the Empress Dowager with a pair of bloodthirsty eyes.
"Mother...... Queen ......"
I don't know if it was because he was frightened by the scene in front of him, Chu Chenxuan called out the mother in a dumb voice, but there was no more follow-up, and there was still a fear in those bright eyes that he didn't have time to hide himself, and his small mouth opened wide because of fear.
Although Chu Chenxuan is young, because he is in the emperor's family, he has a much more mature mind than ordinary children early.
He was very aware that if he had drunk the wine just now, he would have died a long time ago, after all, as a child, the intuition of danger could not be ignored.
And that glass of wine was actually handed over by his mother, was that to kill Long Xiang? Or, to kill him?
Chu Chenxuan is a child after all, he will only choose the most intuitive way to consider these problems, and the glass of wine was handed over by his mother, that is, he wants to kill himself!
"Why?"
The star-like eyes dimmed instantly, and the voice was filled with unbelievable pain and fear.
What was originally a harmonious dinner party was instantly like being in an ice cellar, which made people shudder.
Yang Haolong seemed to hear the sound of something shattering, she looked at the fine light in Chu Chenxuan's bright eyes, and a wave of anger gushed out of her chest uncontrollably.
"Remember to keep your life alive, and the rest, feel free."
The indifferent voice without a trace of emotion, like a judgment issued by a judge, spread with a heavy killing intent in this wide hall.
At that moment, Yang Haolong was almost carried away by anger, forgetting that the person standing behind him was not Ah Yue, and directly gave such an order.
It doesn't matter what kind of queen mother she is, as long as she wants to, she can change people at any time, and she has been putting up with it in Xiao Xuanzi's face before, but it actually gave her the opportunity to indulge.
She didn't dare to think about what kind of tragic scene it would be after feeding that glass of wine to Xiao Xuanzi if she moved faster, she didn't want to think about it, that kind of scene was like the most terrible nightmare in the world.
This feeling of watching the person she wanted to protect die in her arms was her most terrible and unwanted nightmare!
Just like that, leaving the words full of murderous intent, Yang Haolong pressed the little guy in his arms into his arms, as if he wanted to use his body to warm the little body.
In order not to let Chu Chenxuan see more things that should not be seen, Yang Haolong took him out of here after saying this, closed the door with his backhand when he left the room, and took Chu Chenxuan to a garden outside, wanting to appease his feelings.
Also for the sake of Chu Chenxuan's face, Yang Haolong did not say that he directly sentenced the Empress Dowager to death, but left her a life, which was also her last and maximum tolerance.
"Dragon, I...... I don't understand why I ...... like this."
Chu Chenxuan's muffled voice came out of Yang Haolong's arms, no matter how hard Yang Haolong tried, the little guy just refused to raise his head, and the clothes that were tightly held were gradually soaked with tears.
Yang Haolong sighed lightly, for a child who was only six years old, the world of adults was too complicated and dirty, and it was not a kind of Cheng dù that he could accept at all.
But just because he was born in the emperor's family, he had to accept it early, betrayal, conspiracy, bloodshed and ruthlessness, how can people not feel distressed!
"Xiao Xuanzi, you must know that in the world of adults, there will always be dirt and betrayal, although these are not things that you can understand and accept now, but this is the process you must go through to grow up, understand?"
This kind of thing, Chu Chenxuan has to experience sooner or later, and from another aspect, it is a bad thing to let him feel this kind of coldness and dirtiness early.
It's just that this way of growing up is too cruel!
"Long Xiang, is it that when I grow up, I will encounter such a thing, and I will also be in such an environment, and I will also face cruelty and betrayal?"
The delicate voice seemed so weak in the night breeze, like a small flower exposed to the desert, it should be the age when it was cared for in the greenhouse, but it was necessary to see the cruelty of this world early.
"With the dragon here, I will protect you well!"
Yang Haolong didn't answer this question directly, she couldn't lie to him and say that this qiē would not happen, it was not realistic.
Sooner or later, he will grow up, and he will become a king in his own right, and it is inevitable to face these things, she can't deceive him and say that this qiē will not happen, what she can do is to use her greatest strength to protect him, protect him, and protect him as much as possible in this world where deception is rampant.
"Hmm!"
Chu Chenxuan nodded heavily, leaving an unforgettable mark belonging to Yang Haolong in that young heart.
It was that mark that gave him strength at all times and made him stronger.
It didn't take long for the little guy who was still crying silently in his arms to know when he had fallen asleep, and his little face was still slightly wrinkled in his sleep, which made Yang Haolong's heart soften.
She involuntarily stretched out her fingers to smooth out the small brow, and hugged the soft little body tightly in her arms, as if guarding the treasures of this world, careful and very gentle.
The night breeze blows slightly, and such a scene makes people can't help but warm their hearts, and a heart-warming feeling arises spontaneously.
At this time, in that hall, there is another extreme world.
The mark corroded by the poisonous wine still reminded the people present from time to time of the dangerous scene that had just happened here, and the feeling of being frightened still lingered in Wang Jiahong's heart.
He didn't dare to think about what kind of state he would be in now if Yang Haolong really drank that cup of poisonous wine, but he was sure of it.
If something really happened to Yang Haolong, even if he brought everyone in the Chu Kingdom to the funeral, he would definitely be able to do this kind of thing.
The bloodthirsty aura suddenly swelled in the hall, and Wang Jiahong's cannibalistic face was a little more terrifying than the hideous ghost, and the frightened Empress Dowager retreated again and again, until she accidentally stepped on the hem of her skirt and fell to the ground.
"What are you going to do!"
Seeing Wang Jiahong's appearance, the Empress Dowager's heart seemed to be clenched tightly by a huge hand, and the feeling of almost suffocating made her almost faint with fright.
"What do you say I'm going to do, shouldn't that sentence be for me to ask? What exactly are you going to do to the dragons! ”
Wang Jiahong did not stop, but approached a little closer, and locked the Empress Dowager tightly in his sight with a bloodthirsty cannibalistic gaze.
Where did the Empress Dowager who fell to the ground still look like she had just calmed down, the bun at that end also became messy because of the hurried struggle, Zhu Hai also fell to the ground, and her clothes were even more wrinkled, but she still didn't give up and retreated desperately, hoping to be a little farther away from Wang Jiahong, a little farther away.
Regarding Wang Jiahong's murderous reputation in the rivers and lakes, even if he is in the high-walled compound of the palace, it is definitely like thunder.
Although the Empress Dowager didn't want to admit it, she had to say that the reason why her son was able to obtain the throne had a lot to do with Wang Jiahong.
If Wang Jiahong really has a trace of thinking about the throne, it is definitely not his own child who is sitting on the throne now, but Wang Jiahong.
In another sense, it seems that the Empress Dowager should be more grateful to Wang Jiahong, but she chose hatred, because she has tried the taste, she is even more reluctant to give up, for a person who is a potential threat in her opinion, the Empress Dowager is naturally a lot of vigilance
