Chapter 165: This Good Opportunity
However, out of curiosity about Qiao Niannian, at this moment he wanted to know what kind of way would be used to let him confide the truth if it was Qiao Niannian.
It didn't take long for Yun'er to bring in the medicinal herbs, and Qiao Niannian was also sitting on the chair at the moment, and after the medicinal herbs were placed on the table in front of her, she began to make the medicines.
"If you don't say it now, you can. Then when you take this medicine, you will beg us to let you speak. ”
The cold aura in Qiao Niannian's tone made the surrounding air cool down a little, and the man endured the pain, raised his head and glanced at Qiao Niannian, and just sneered.
"You're just a woman, what medicine can you make?"
He was struggling to speak now, but the sarcasm in his tone was clear when he said this.
"Smack!"
A slap landed on the man's face.
Qiao Niannian glanced at the subordinate who did this, and then looked towards Gongzhijin.
This person must have come because of her, so it has nothing to do with him. Moreover, if that person revealed her identity as Princess Yan, then it would not be good.
"Liang Gongzi, since this person is coming towards me, then please go out first."
Qiao Niannian was very calm, as if he had long been convinced that after a while, the man would speak the truth.
Since she said so, it is not good for her to continue to stay here, Gong Zhijin immediately nodded at Qiao Niannian, got up, and walked towards the door. And except for Yun'er and Qiao Niannian, the rest of the people went out.
Gong Zhijin wasn't worried that his identity would be exposed at all, because that person was clearly coming towards Qiao Niannian. Coupled with the way the man looked at him just now, according to Gongzhijin's years of experience, that person didn't know that he was the Yan King at all.
"If there's any movement inside, just go in and kill the man."
Even if you can't get the truth from his mouth, then with Gong Zhijin's ability, he will definitely find the person behind the scenes. Although Qiao Niannian was at her disposal, if her life was endangered, then it would be impossible for that person to stay.
After Gongzhijin said a few words to Bu Peng, he walked outside.
In the room, Qiao Niannian had already prepared the medicine at this moment, and after putting it in the medicine bottle, he stood up and slowly walked towards the person.
"You still don't say yes, do you?"
The man wanted to raise his head and continue to mock, he had never been afraid of anyone, but as soon as he saw Qiao Niannian's eyes, he took his words back and lowered his head. The eyes, as if they had come out of an ice cellar, were cold and terrifying, and as if they were trying to see through himself, so that he couldn't help but hide all his heart.
"That's good."
Qiao Niannian saw that he didn't want to say anything, so he immediately grabbed his hair with his right hand and lifted his head up hard. Then he raised his left hand, motioned for Yun'er to open his mouth, and quickly poured the medicine in the medicine bottle into his mouth.
"Ahem!"
The powder spread out in his mouth, and he choked on his throat with a sharp bite. The man coughed incessantly, hoping that the powder would come out of his mouth, but the powder melted away immediately when it met the saliva, and because his head was on his back, he could not spit out the liquid at all, but could only go down his throat.
Seeing that the medicinal powder had entered his body, Qiao Niannian put his hand down, and then turned around and walked a few steps.
In less than five seconds, the man's body, which still had some strength, suddenly collapsed, and his head couldn't help but hurt, and as time passed, his head hurt more and more, and his whole body began to weaken, as if he was about to be paralyzed.
And the feeling was not temporary, but really paralyzed, the man's eyes were bloodshot, and he wanted to speak but couldn't say anything.
"If you tell the truth now, I'll give you the antidote. However, in another minute, you will be paralyzed and die of unbearable pain. ”
Qiao Niannian said very indifferently, as if he didn't care about his life at all, picked up the teacup on the table, and began to drink leisurely.
And that person, feeling that his whole body was being pulled violently, and the pain in his head slowly spread down, this experience, he will never forget!
This unbearable torture can not be endured by anyone for a minute!
"I say!"
The man said this very weakly, though in a very soft voice, and probably could not hear it from standing in the doorway. But Qiao Niannian happened to be not very far away from him, so he heard it.
The corners of her mouth rose slightly, and she picked up another bottle of powder, then slowly stood up and walked towards him.
Looking at his extreme pain, Qiao Niannian sneered, and then gave him the antidote. And as soon as he got the antidote, he raised his hand with great difficulty and poured it into his mouth as quickly as he could.
After about half a minute, the antidote began to work. The man breathed a sigh of relief, and his trembling body calmed down.
"Well, can you talk about it now?"
Qiao Niannian sat on the chair that Yun'er had just moved, looking at her hands, although on the surface it seemed that she didn't care about his life or death at all, but in fact, she had calculated the time for him to recover.
I said...... I said......"
The man was still weak, but his voice wasn't as soft as it had been. He wanted to adjust his posture, but the antidote had just worked, so he didn't have much strength, so he stopped moving.
"The villain is from the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he wants your life, Madame."
Hearing this, Qiao Niannian's hand suddenly stopped. Prime Minister's Mansion? has something to do with her in the Prime Minister's Mansion, it must be that Qiao Mingxin. It's just that this Qiao Mingxin is not married to the stupid son of the prime minister? Plus she has been disfigured, so how can she be cared for by the prime minister?
"Who sent you?"
Qiao Niannian shifted her gaze to his. She was curious, if it wasn't for Qiao Mingxin, then who would want her life?
"Listen...... Listening to the prime minister, it is the king of Yan...... Lord Yan wants your life......"
"Nonsense!"
As soon as Yun'er heard that he was behind the scenes was the Yan King, she immediately stepped forward and kicked him fiercely. How could it be the Flame King?
"What the villain said is true, it is indeed the King of Yan."
According to common sense, it is impossible for King Yan to send someone to kill the princess in that kind of scene, not only will it damage the face of the prince's mansion, but if this person is really sent by King Yan, it means that King Yan already knows about the princess's going out.
Therefore, if he is killed on the spot, in the eyes of outsiders, it will be completely known to the world, and it will be even more unfavorable to him.
Well, there are only two possibilities. One, the man was lying. It's just that Qiao Niannian felt that after the person was tortured by the poison, what he said was very true, and he didn't seem to be lying at all. And who wants to suffer like that again?
If this possibility is ruled out, then there is only another possibility, the last one.
The Prime Minister's Mansion has a deep hatred for King Yan.
If he really died, then the advantage would be to make the prince lose face. But if she can't die, then let the Assassin tell herself that it was the Yan King who wants to harm her, so that she can develop hatred for the Yan King. At the side of the Yan King is the assassin with the best chance.
It's just that everyone on the outside knows that she is a weak woman, so let her assassinate the Yan King? I can't help but think too beautifully.
However, the prime minister's trick is indeed quite high.
Qiao Niannian then asked Yun'er to forcibly feed another bottle of medicine to the man. Since he already knew that she was good at medicine and was not a cowardly princess Yan, he definitely couldn't stay.
"How?"
Not long after he walked out of the utility room, Qiao Niannian ran into Gong Zhijin.
She shook her head indifferently, "It's okay, it's just that someone tried to assassinate me, but it didn't work." ”
"To this day, you still don't want to tell me the truth?"
Gong Zhijin had already ordered people to dismiss all the people in this corridor. Moreover, they could not come in at will without his command.
Seeing his serious and serious appearance, Qiao Niannian's heart panicked a little. In the face of ordinary circumstances, she would not have this kind of emotion, but for him, it was as if she was a different person.
But after all, there was still a veil on her face, so she felt that he couldn't read her facial expression. So, she tried to calm herself down and then responded.
"Liang Gongzi, what are you talking about?"
But Gongzhijin had already seen a hint of her panic, after all, she had been more mature than others since she was a child, and now, she is already full of wealth, and she already has such a talent, so she basically can't hide anything from him.
Although he knew from the beginning that she was Qiao Niannian, he hoped that she could be honest with him and didn't want her to hide it from him all the time. Only by being honest could he know what she was thinking.
"Don't you know these days?" Gong Zhijin slowly approached her, and her tone became a little softer, "I know that you have been hiding something from me all along, and now, someone has come to assassinate you." Do you think if you don't tell me, I won't ask? ”
Feeling Gongzhijin's approaching steps, Qiao Niannian didn't know whether the heartbeat was his own or his. The fragrance that came to her nose, a temperature that she had never felt before, was slowly approaching her, and Qiao Niannian couldn't stand it and wanted to retreat.
But as soon as she stepped back, her arm was grabbed hard.
"Don't try to escape." Although Gong Zhijin tried hard, he didn't want to hurt her, so he let go a little, "Can't you still trust me?" ”
I felt that there seemed to be a different kind of temperature in his eyes, which was definitely different from what I had seen before. But Qiao Niannian didn't want to raise her head to look at him, she felt that she definitely didn't have the courage to face these shining eyes.
The whole body was a little numb, and Qiao Niannian felt that he couldn't move at all, and he couldn't say a word.
"Then since you don't want to say it, then I'll say it."
Gong Zhijin let go of his hand and put it behind him, but his eyes were still looking at Qiao Niannian.
"You are the princess, and before, you were the concubine of the Qiao family."
Speaking of which, Gong Zhijin closely observed her facial expressions, not letting go of even the slightest detail.
And Qiao Niannian, after hearing him say this, not only did he not feel a sense of vigilance in his heart, but on the contrary, he seemed to be relieved. Since he said it, then himself, there is no need to say it.
"So, what do you think?"
There was no denial, Qiao Niannian just acquiesced to what he said. I don't know why, she would say such a sentence, does it mean that he already has a place in his heart?
"I don't have any ideas. As long as you can be honest with me, it doesn't matter to me who you are. ”
The original coolness in Gongzhijin's heart disappeared, and was replaced by a sense of relief after the sense of expectation was satisfied. He could tell her mind from her performance.
"I'm the princess, and if I continue to stay here, I'm sure someone else will find out sooner or later. It's bad for you, it's good for the pharmacy. That person just now came to harm me because I was the princess. Therefore, whether I continue to hide it from you now, or confide in you like now, I will not come again. ”
Moreover, because after all, she is still a princess, so it is impossible to get so close to an outsider. If this reaches the ears of the Yan King, it will inevitably cause some trouble for himself.
