Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Poisoner

On the second day, early in the morning, Black Cliff ran over in a panic, for fear that it would be late, "Master, I have found the mastermind behind the scenes!"

"Speak slowly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info" Jialan motioned for him to sit down first.

"This time it was Sima Liu Yuan who rebelled against Zhongrong Guo!" Heiya looked at it, but he didn't see Lixiang, so he sat down with peace of mind.

"Well, anything else?" asked Jialan.

"Huh?" Black Cliff was stunned.

Jialan looked at Black Cliff's expression, smiled and said, "Lixiang told me about this the day before yesterday~"

"・・・・・・" Heiya left sneeringly after hearing this, but immediately turned around and came back, "Then does she know when Liu Yuan will make a move?"

"I don't know. ”

"Hahaha, great, I got the news in five days, I'll go and find out now. With that, Black Cliff walked away quickly.

"Your Excellency. Reika, who was hiding in the corner, walked out, "Didn't I tell you this news the day before yesterday?"

"Huh. Jialan chuckled and didn't respond.

After a while, Li Xiang also smiled, "I understand, but that Liu Yuan has the strength of the seventh layer of the Spirit Sect, and one of the generals who cooperates with him is the first layer of Lingzun, do we want to remind the royal family of Zhongrong Kingdom?"

"Do you think they won't know? The people of the royal family must already know, but we don't know what the royal family will do, so you will follow me into the palace the day after tomorrow. Jialan said.

"Brother, why didn't I go with you?" said Huangfu Wushuang with a grudge.

"Can you speak in a female voice in the image of a man?" Jialan glanced at Huangfu Wushuang, since he once stimulated Jialan with a man's body, Huangfu Wushuang was "infatuated" to do this, the purpose was to make Jialan deflated.

"Okay~" Huangfu Wushuang escalated his squeamish voice again.

"Hehe~" Seeing the change in Jialan's face, Lixiang couldn't help laughing.

The next day, Black Cliff took him to find out the news and came to Jialan, and at the same time brought a person, a middle-aged man.

"Master, this person is a lieutenant general of General Zhongrong, and his head is the one who wants to rebel. "However, he has now surrendered to his master. ”

"Oh?" Jialan was moved by the work of Black Cliff for the first time these days, Lixiang was much stronger than Black Cliff when she inquired about the news, but Black Cliff also had merit, that is, the rebellion, and the same was true last time in the Long family, if it wasn't for the success of the Black Cliff rebellion, he wouldn't have known about the Long family's acceptance of bribes.

"General, I have prepared some important evidence, and I have already handed it over to Lord Black Cliff. The middle-aged man said.

"Master, I'm afraid of fraud, so after he asked him to bring it, I arranged for someone to open it to make sure that nothing happened. Black Cliff whispered in Jialan's ear.

"You're doing a good job, just tell me about the evidence, I won't look at it carefully. ”

This rebellion was a joint action between Sima and the general, of which Sima was the main one, because the general had only one daughter, married to the eldest son of the Sima family; and this Sima's restless heart was already ready to move, as early as he became Sima began to plan, and I don't know how the Xiao clan offended him; here, there is an intriguing thing, that is, the empire never cares about the internal strife of the state to which it belongs, and as long as you are loyal to the victor of the rebellion, the empire will not care who is in power, and even sometimes when a state is too strong, the emperor will also use some means to make the state chaotic。

"Master, there are more than 20,000 people they have deployed in the royal city, a lot of them, let alone exterminate them, it is not easy to completely grasp their movements. Black Cliff said with some embarrassment.

"Don't worry about that, tell me about the rest, is there any useful news?" Jialan waved his hand to signal Black Cliff not to worry about this.

"Well, there is also the fact that the total strength of Zhongrong Kingdom is 760,000 people, and there are 450,000 of them in this rebellion, which has an advantage. The middle-aged man said under the signal of the black cliff, "Of course, many losses are in a state of confrontation with each other, and the people who attacked the royal city this time are all elites, there are 50,000 people, plus more than 20,000 people in the city, I believe that the number of people can exceed 80,000 on the day of the move." ”

"How many guards are there in the city?"

"More than 30,000, less than 40,000, but also elite. The middle-aged man said.

"Well, how far is the nearest garrison?" asked Jialan.

"There are four hundred miles, in Rongcheng. ”

"How many?" Jialan continued.

"There are 70,000 people, but the 60,000 people sent by Liu Yuan will definitely not be able to catch up. The middle-aged man said.

"Hehe, you don't need them to come over. Jialan smiled, "You go down, Black Cliff will take care of your safety." ”

"Don't worry, master, I will definitely be able to protect him. "Black Cliff understands that Jialan is talking about protection, but in fact, the purpose is to detain.

"Lixiang!" shouted Jialan.

"Your Excellency. "Reika appeared ghostly.

"You ordered our people to all withdraw and ambush in the woods of Wulidian, east of the city, oh, call, Jin Youli will go there with the blood guards. ”

"Yes!" Reika commanded to leave.

"Little Shuang!"

"Here!" Huangfu Wushuang pouted.

"It's up to you this time, hehe~ Don't forget to raid the homes of those generals and ministers. ”

"But there is only Liu Yuan's home in Wangcheng?" said Huangfu Wushuang suspiciously.

"I said it was those generals and ministers, not specifically Liu Yuan. ”

"Brother, isn't this okay?" Huangfu Wushuang understood that Jialan was going to rob all the big families in the city.

"I'm using 100,000 troops for nothing, don't I get some errand money?" said Jialan, with the face of a profiteer.

"Well, my brother did the right thing, and my heart cores are also depleted~" Huangfu Wushuang also nodded frequently.

"Hey~" both of them smiled evilly.

Another day, Jialan took Huangfu Wushuang and Lixiang to the royal city, asking to see King Xiao; this time the request was very quiet, and this was also for Liu Yuan to see, so that he could postpone the move; although Zhongrong Kingdom belonged to the edge of the empire, the real border pass was garrisoned by the empire, but this cost was to be leveled on the shoulders of each state.

"Jialan, I didn't expect the young man of the year to become a general now~" King Xiao looked extremely tired when he spoke, and he had to sit down and rest just after saying this.

"King Xiao, who are you?" Jialan knew that the kings of these states either had strong strength themselves or their elders had superb strength, unless it was a place like Yuanzhao Country where no one paid much attention;

"Alas, don't mention it, if it weren't for the fact that you weren't an outsider, I wouldn't have seen you and been poisoned~" King Xiao sighed, "I saw you coming to see me with great fanfare, I guess you heard something, right?"

"That's right, your Sima Liu Yuan has some tricks. Jialan smiled and said, "Where is the cold wind? You are poisoned, they should all be here." ”

"Hmm~ The Sword Sect also has its own troubles, I didn't expect Liu Yuan's plan to be so comprehensive, even Zimo's husband has taken it into account. King Xiao said hatefully.

"Well, it seems that this Liu Yuan is a character, so why does he have to oppose you?" asked Jialan.

"Hehe, this thing is very simple, who doesn't want to be a king? My ancestors also rebelled to get the throne, and now it's just someone who wants my throne. ”

"Well, I understand, now I'll look at your poison. Saying that, Jialan walked to King Xiao's side, and the guards next to him wanted to stop him, but he was stopped by King Xiao, "If he wants to be unfavorable to me, he just needs to stay still, why let Liu Yuan delay?"

"Yes. The guard stood back where he was.

"Your guard is just a decoration, otherwise how could you be poisoned?" Jialan looked at the guard and said coldly, thinking about whether she would also set up a guard team, but after thinking about it, she still gave up, no guard is as strong as herself.

After a brief inspection, Jialan moved her hand away from King Xiao, "Your poison is difficult to solve, it seems that you were poisoned a long time ago." "This reminds Jialan of the poison of the master of the Extreme Thunder Gate, which is very similar to this, this is interesting, could it be that these two people poisoned the person who poisoned the Si family?

"It seems that you know about this poison?" asked King Xiao.

"Well, maybe. Jialan said casually, "But this poison is very difficult to decompose, and it depends on the fact that all the things in your royal mansion treasury are complete." Then, Jialan told King Xiao the list of materials needed for detoxification.

"I seem to be able to get these things together ・・・・・・・ you・・・・・・" Xiao Wang looked at the list of materials one by one.

In the end, the treasury of the Wang family is richer than that of the sect, and sure enough, the materials will be gathered quickly, and Jialan will also be poisoned, but when detoxifying, Jialan found a thing that disgusted him, that is, the expression of the close guard next to King Xiao was not joy, but a little panicked, and then looked at King Xiao, he didn't notice the expression of his guard at all, thinking that it was because he trusted this guard very much.
