Chapter 13: Poisoning

During this time, we also officially started on the issue of how to poison the two princesses.

Although there is no grievance with them, it is difficult to disobey the teacher's life, the mother's life, and the teacher's life and the mother's life are even more difficult to violate.

Later, Xiao Ran comforted me and said: "It can't be said that there is no injustice and no hatred, after all, they are the daughters of your father's enemy, and they can be regarded as having hatred." I felt that what he said made sense, so I no longer dwelled on the question of whether there was a grudge or not, but began to dwell on the question of how to poison it.

The two princesses live in the Jiahe Palace, which is far away from Xiao Ran's Yanhua Palace, and if I run to poison it recklessly, it will be easy to be discovered, and once the princess is poisoned, the task behind it will not be able to be carried out.

Xiao Ran saw that I was worried, so he proposed to take me out of the palace to play, saying that it was to relax and relax, thinking that things would be easier, and I was immediately interested when I heard it.

King Xiao has been closed in Jinghe Palace because of the death of the Queen Mother, so we left the palace quite smoothly. Xiao Ran drove me all the way to the fault where the Xiaoshui River flows, which is also known as the Xiaoshui Waterfall.

The rushing river cascades down from the fault, stirring up bursts of mist, and the sunlight reflects a colorful halo on the mist. Xiao Ran brought snacks from the carriage and sat down beside me with his aged daughter Hong, and as soon as I saw that there was something to eat, I sat down next to him.

"Do you like mung bean cakes?" Xiao Ran took out a plate of mung bean cake from the food box and put it in front of me.

I immediately nodded like a chicken pecking rice, took the mung bean cake and devoured it. Seeing the waterfall, I couldn't help but think of Tang Huan again, he was indifferent to all the beautiful scenery, the last time he saw such a beautiful waterfall at the border of Louguo, he just glanced at it and urged me to hurry. I didn't return and remember my sentence "The first sigh of the Milky Way falls, the blue sky and the white rainbow shadow", it can be seen that the senior brother is not as good as a bird in some places.

"I'm thinking about something again, and I've eaten all the mung bean cakes in my nose." Xiao Ran raised his hand in front of my face but stopped suddenly, lowered his eyebrows and retracted his hand.

"What's wrong?" I put down the mung bean cake in my hand and wiped my mouth with my sleeve.

"I'm thinking about how I can get you out if the mission fails." When Xiao Ran said this, I suddenly realized that if the mission failed, we would face the disaster of death, but then I thought of the two strands of hair that Master gave me before leaving, and I calmed down.

The master said that there was a reason for her to think that she could save her life, so she comforted: "Don't worry, Master gave me a life-saving talisman before I left, and it is a big deal to share half of you when the time comes." ”

"Oh?" Xiao Ran raised his eyebrows and looked at me with interest: "What is a life amulet?" ”

I mysteriously leaned into his ear and whispered, "Two strands of hair." Just a wisp of you and a wisp of me, hehe. Xiao Ran's thick eyebrows trembled, and he looked at me with the expression of a madman, and said after a long time: "I'd better figure it out myself!" ”

I was despised by Xiao Ran and gradually got used to it, I lay on my back on the green grass with my hands behind my head, and asked casually: "Actually, your father is very good to you, can you really bear to watch me kill him?" ”

Xiao Ran's dark eyes oozed deep sorrow, I knew that he was actually still a little conflicted in his heart, Li Shao had a special identity back then, and some things were involuntary when he thought about it.

He took a big sip with his head up from the flask, and said in a muffled voice: "When I think of my mother's suffering over the years, and seeing him enjoying family fun in the palace and his queen's daughters, I can't wait to kill him as soon as possible." I have lived alone all these years, family affection is something out of reach for me, since I first met my mother at the age of ten, my life has only been the word hatred. ”

I turned to look at him in confusion: "You haven't seen your mother before you were ten years old?" ”

He closed his eyes slightly, as if he was reminiscing about the past, and said lightly after a long time: "My mother was originally the lord of Jinyun, the pearl of the four princes of Lou Kingdom. When she was seven years old, she sneaked out of the palace with her servants to play, rescued the unconscious Xiao prince Li Shao on the edge of the Yijiang River, and took him back to the palace for medical treatment. After Li Shao woke up, he couldn't remember some things clearly, and he couldn't say his identity, and it was a time of war, so he lived in the palace for thirteen years. When my mother was seventeen years old, she fell in love with him, and it didn't take long for the two of them to make a lifelong ......."

Xiao Ran paused for a moment, and then said: "When King Xiao found Li Shao, my mother was already pregnant, and Li Shao promised to take my mother to Xiao Guo when the situation stabilized after he went back, and then he went back with King Xiao." My mother was pregnant unmarried and insisted on refusing to have an abortion, and my grandfather felt insulting and kicked her out of the house in a fit of rage. My mother was alone in the wilderness, suffering a lot, and gave birth to me in a dilapidated hut outside Jinran City, and then sent me to Tan Ji Temple in Jinran before the full moon......"

"So you're a monk!" I was startled and interrupted him.

Xiao Ran looked at me very hurtfully: "The focus of your listening stories is always different from that of normal people...... Although I grew up in the temple, the presiding abbot only accepted me as a lay disciple and did not shave my ordination. ”

"Where did your mother send you? Where did she go herself? ”

"I don't know, Li Shao married Princess Juanyue in the second year after returning to Xiao Kingdom, I think my mother was afraid that she would think of Li Shao when she saw me, and she was sad, so she simply sent me to the temple not to zaijian me."

Xiao Ran's tone was always light, as if he was saying something very ordinary, but I saw a bottomless sadness in his eyes. The rumbling sound of water echoed in my ears, and Xiao Ran and I were speechless for a while, and when we turned our heads again, the sunset had already fallen to the western horizon.

Early in the morning of the second day after returning to the palace, while I was still in a foggy sleep, a maid with a bright eye knocked on my door, saying that the Lord of Chaoyun was summoning me. I think it's very strange, after all, the relationship between the princess and Xiao Ran is very discordant, and it will be no good to summon me.

After thinking about it, I hid the broken soul and scattered it in my sleeve, this time I finally found an opportunity to poison her, although I can't kill her directly, but as long as I master the amount of medicine, I can control the time of her poison. This is the most clever chronic poison developed by Master, and once she dies, even if the coroner finds out that she has been poisoned, as long as the time is uncertain, this matter will not be linked to me.

The maid led me all the way to the pavilion in the backyard of Jiahe Palace, the pavilion was built on the cliff of Gufeng Mountain, Princess Chaoyun was sitting comfortably in the pavilion and tasting tea, it can be seen that she was not afraid of heights, the sad thing is that I was actually afraid of heights, standing in the pavilion and trembling to Princess Chaoyun saluted.

"Yo, what did you do, I'm scared to be like this." Princess Chaoyun put down the teacup in her hand and looked up at me lazily.

I scolded in my heart, you just did something wrong, the old lady is just a little afraid of heights. But he still replied very respectfully: "The slave maid has just entered the palace, and I am a little nervous to be fortunate enough to meet the princess so closely. ”

"Humph! Don't say anything nice, look at your foxy appearance is disgusting. What is the purpose of my brother Wang who came out of thin air to take you into the palace? I heard that the two of them slipped out of the palace without permission yesterday, and it seems that there is indeed something unspeakable between you! I also heard that Brother Wang hid Jiaojiao in the golden house in the Yanhua Palace, and you did not live in the subordinate garden, but lived in the master's house. Your father asked Brother Wang to accept you as a concubine, but you still refused, are you running for the position of the princess? Princess Chaoyun stood up with her back to me, looking confident.

I didn't feel angry, but wanted to laugh. Some people obviously don't know anything, and they still have to put on a profound posture of "your little tricks can't escape the eyes of the old lady".

Quietly poured the broken soul in the palm of her sleeve, saw the teacup she put on the table, estimated the distance, raised her hand and blew gently, and the medicine powder floated in. Of course, this action is done in a split second, so it will not be noticed.

I controlled the dosage quite well, and it would take three to five days for her to drink this tea, so I would stay in Yanhua Hall with Xiao Ran for a few days and not go out.

Princess Chaoyun saw that I didn't say anything for a while, so she turned her head and said, "Why did I say it?" Not speaking is a tacit acquiescence? ”

I continued to bow my head and remain silent, thinking in my heart, "You should be thirsty after you say so much, hurry up and drink tea!" ”

Then Princess Chaoyun sat back at the table very understandingly and picked up the teacup.

I was so moved that I wanted to cry.

"Huh! Don't you take this princess seriously! Princess Chaoyun raised her head and drank the tea in the cup, slammed it on the table, and said, "Someone!" Throw this no-nonsense minion down to me! ”

I was still immersed in joy one moment when I saw her finish the tea, and the next moment I was so weak that I almost fell to the ground after listening to her words. Throw it down...... Throw which one and which one go......

Before I could react, four maids flashed behind me, and without saying a word, they pushed me towards the cliff below the pavilion.
