Chapter 186: Back to the Palace
The general spoke: "Since you are a criminal general, you must enter the palace in the manner of a criminal general, and be honest if you want to see the queen."
In such a situation, Chen Zhan had to grit his teeth even if he was not convinced, and was escorted all the way to the ancestral hall, while Miao Jun under him and Bizhu who brought him all the way were escorted to other places.
Several guards pushed Chen Zhan into the ancestral hall roughly, closed the heavy door, and his hands and feet were tightly controlled by ropes, and Chen Zhan struggled for a while before getting up from the ground.
The ancestral hall was dimly lit, and it took him a long time to get used to the light inside, Tang Ningzhi was not inside, Chen Zhan looked around, looking for her.
After a while, Tang Ningzhi walked out from behind the ancestral hall, holding a thumb-thick horsewhip in her hand, and the gorgeous clothes she had just worn on the city wall had also been replaced by clean clothes.
Chen Zhan looked at Tang Ningzhi's posture, swallowed his saliva, and instinctively stepped back.
Tang Ningzhi was menacing, Chen Zhan was tightly controlled by the rope, and he couldn't dodge the horsewhip that Tang Ningzhi waved at all.
A whip fell on his arm, neck, and back, and there was a hot pain, Chen Zhan was glad that Tang Ningzhi was just a woman, waving a heavy horse whip, and after a while, he gasped.
Tang Ningzhi was tired and sat on a pair of chairs in front of the ancestral hall, the bright and dark lights jumping and flickering on her face, reflecting the fine beads of sweat on her forehead and cheeks.
"Do you remember your tragic death of your parents, and do you remember the 30,000 subjects of my Miao Jiang?"
Tang Ningzhi's voice revealed heroism, different from the seductive tone she used to hug Chen Zhan from behind.
"Of course the Admiral remembers."
I don't know if he was indignant at mentioning his dead parents, or if he had just closed his teeth and endured the whip that Tang Ningzhi had fallen on him, Chen Zhan's eyes were bloodshot, as if they were about to emerge from their sockets.
"Since you remember, why did you take Feng Yunsheng away, why did you throw her into the pirate's den, you know that Feng Feihan is the most precious child left by her sister? In doing so, you are undoubtedly ignoring our Miaojiang subjects, and once a war breaks out, everything we have planned will be wasted. ”
"It's not like we're invincible to Liang Guo."
Chen Zhan struggled as if he was about to get up from the ground, and shouted at Tang Ningzhi with his neck tilted.
"Do you think you're an enemy?"
Tang Ningzhi got up from the chair and landed another whip on Chen Zhan's back.
"Since you think the enemy can pass, why did this operation fail, didn't you promise me that it would be foolproof?"
Chen Zhan closed his teeth tightly and did not answer.
"Or are you on Feng Feihan's ship that day, and you still have other things on your mind?"
Chen Zhan closed his eyes, he knew what Tang Ningzhi meant by other things.
Before the departure of this operation, he promised Tang Ningzhi that this operation would get rid of Tang Ningnan.
Tang Ningzhi can't tolerate Tang Ningnan, even if she is a half-sister, even if Tang Ningnan has gone to Liang Guohe.
Tang Ningzhi originally thought that Tang Ningnan would live better than die when she went to the Liang Kingdom, and would be disgusted by the Lord of Liang, but she never imagined that her younger sister would have such a charm that made the Lord of Liang swoon with her.
What's more, Tang Ningnan actually turned his back on Miao Jiang and was unwilling to Gu Feng Fei Han according to the agreement with his relatives at that time.
In addition, what made Tang Ningzhi even more angry was that Chen Zhan relied on himself to make steady progress in the Miaojiang Palace, and on the other hand, he did not forget his old lover, and he couldn't get rid of her, and even wanted to take Tang Ningnan away and bring her back to Miaojiang at that juncture.
Tang Ningzhi couldn't bear it anyway.
She likes Chen Zhan, or more precisely, she likes to control the people she likes.
Chen Zhan didn't follow her intentions, so she got angry, got angry, became crazy, and ordered someone to pour a decoction on Chen Zhan.
This has been the case since a long time ago, Tang Ningnan, as the princess, has been in the limelight everywhere, and she stands in a conspicuous place for everything, and she Tang Ningzhi can only hide behind the scenes and watch Tang Ningnan stand in a glamorous place.
In love, the same is true.
Tang Ningzhi likes Chen Zhan, and there is only Tang Ningnan in her heart.
Over time, her inner thoughts became dark and distorted, and her desire to control things was a hundred times greater than others, she was unwilling, huge plans were bred in her heart, and she had been carefully arranging for many years, she sat on the throne of Miao Jiang, sent Tang Ningnan to Liang Guohe, and made Chen Zhan one of her many male favorites.
But she just can't get used to seeing Chen Zhan still thinking about Tang Ningnan in her heart, she just doesn't want Tang Ningnan to live a safe and smooth life, so if Tang Ningnan can't do it in pain, then let her die.
Chen Zhan, who was kneeling on the ground, was summoned to the poison prepared by Tang Ningzhi herself, the poison will not cause death, but the internal organs will be painful.
This is how she controls Chen Zhan and his Miao Army.
A Hongmen banquet, Tang Ningzhi gave them such a poison, and they need to get the antidote from her at the beginning of each month, otherwise after time, the poison will attack, and they will be worse off than dead, but this poison will not really put people to death.
Chen Zhan fell to the ground, his body curled up in a ball, convulsing continuously.
Tang Ningzhi got up from her seat, walked over and squatted next to Chen Zhan, grabbing his head and facing her.
"This is the consequence of not obeying my orders, being tolerant of you again and again, not the capital of your nose and face."
Chen Zhan only felt that his intestines were twisted together, beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on his aching forehead, and he couldn't say a word.
Tang Ningzhi didn't mean to give him an antidote, thinking that his brothers were in such a situation, they must be having a bad time.
He struggled to his feet from the ground, making a low sound in his throat.
"Give me the solution, the antidote, I have it in my hand, I have Sima Bin's next plan, maybe, but I can continue to complete the unfinished plan of the Penglai Islands."
"You think I'll believe it?"
Tang Ningzhi looked at Chen Zhan on the ground condescendingly, and said coldly, he had given him so many opportunities, but he had never completed the task he gave him completely.
What's more, Zhao Ke was arrested, how could Sima Bin not be exposed?
"Zhao Ke left his back hand, Feng Fei Han didn't have it for the time being, grab it, hold Sima Bin's handle, there is still a chance, please, please give me one last chance, I will definitely retrieve Feng Fei Han and... and Tang Ningnan's head, if it can't be completed, he will apologize with death. ”
Tang Ningzhi didn't give up, and asked Chen Zhan to swear at the tablet in the ancestral hall before believing her words and asking his subordinates to bring the antidote.
"How could I possibly make you die to apologize?"
Tang Ningzhi's nails slipped from Chen Zhan's forehead to his neck, how simple it is to die, it is the easiest way to be happy, she is reluctant to let Chen Zhan die, she would rather let him live and torture him all day long.
Since the princess and her relatives, as a dowry maid, followed Tang Ningnan to the Liang Kingdom, Bizhu has not returned to the Miaojiang Palace for six years.
In six years, there is a lot that can be changed.
The layout of the entire palace has not changed much, but the furnishings and plants have been replaced with the style that Tang Ningzhi likes.
In six years, it is easy to erase a person's existence.
From the day Tang Ningnan got married, Tang Ningzhi ordered to clean up all the items used by Tang Ningnan, and the palace where she lived was also repainted, and even the subordinates who were close to Tang Ningnan were ordered by Tang Ningzhi to be killed.
As long as Tang Ningzhi is in power, Miao Jiang will never be able to become Tang Ningnan's solid backing.
Bizhu was taken to a large prison, put on a heavy anklet, and acted extremely clumsy.
If there is still the possibility of escaping or being rescued outside the city wall, now that she is in Miao Jiang's prison, she may never see her little master again.
Bizhu knew in her heart that Tang Ningzhi didn't like Tang Ningnan, and naturally she wouldn't tolerate her existence, and now that she holds the power of Miao Jiang, her wish back then has been achieved.
These days and nights, I haven't been able to rest well, and Bizhu has slept very soundly against the straw in the cell.
I don't know how long I slept, but Bizhu was woken up by a soft voice.
When I opened my eyes, it was a familiar face.
"Tsukiji?" Bizhu's voice revealed surprise, and she got up from the ground, and was quickly dragged to the ground by the heavy anklets on her feet.
"Be careful!"
Tsukiji stretched out his hand to hold Bizhu, but was stopped by a wooden cell.
Fortunately, Bizhu stabilized her center of gravity and slowly moved to the edge of the cell, so that she could face to face with Tsukiji.
"Are you alright?" Tsukiji asked worriedly.
Fortunately, Chen Zhan did not embarrass Bizhu along the way, but just brought her to Miaojiang.
Yueji took the food box from behind him, took out some side dishes and put them in front of Bizhu, and asked her to eat them quickly with great interest, and the preparations were all what she loved to eat.
Bizhu looked at the side dishes and white rice in the food box and then at Yueji's face, and didn't mean to move the chopsticks for a long time.
Yueji took out the food box sent in, and said angrily: "What, are you still afraid that I will poison you inside?"
As he spoke, he picked up the chopsticks and put a chopstick in each dish and put it into his mouth, muttering: "Oh, I've eaten it all, now I don't doubt it."
Bizhu lowered her head, and her voice was soft: "Where do I suspect that you are poisoned, but I haven't seen you for a long time, and some of them haven't come back to their senses."
While eating the side dishes and rice brought by Yuesi, I listened to him talk about the changes in Miao Jiang over the years, and he also mentioned a word or two about Tang Ningzhi during the period.
From these few words, Bi Zhu captured some information that Yue Si inadvertently revealed, that the clansmen on Tang Ningnan's mother's side suffered a surprise attack half a year ago were indeed inseparable from Tang Ningzhi.
But after asking, Yue Sizhi said that he didn't know the details and didn't continue to talk to Bizhu.
When the side dishes in the food box were almost finished, Tsukiji put away the plate and said that he had also worked a lot of effort to come today, so that Bizhu could relax inside, and if he found an opportunity, he would come to save him out.
"But you saved me out, what should you do, you will be scolded by Chen Zhan."
Yuesi shook his head, saying that Chen Zhan was too busy to take care of himself, and as Chen Zhan's personal attendant, he might also be arrested by Tang Ningzhi soon, so it was better to take advantage of these times to rescue Bizhu.
