Chapter 196: Submission and Poisoning
The sudden change shocked Bai Potian's heart, and then he felt an unprecedented coercion rushing towards him. [Full text reading]
In an instant, Bai Potian's face turned pale, and a fine sweat dripped out of his forehead.
The aura on Xiao Ling's body was fleeting, but it made Bai Potian's heart set off turbulent waves.
What a strong atmosphere, what is the origin of this young man, why has he never heard of such a young strong man in the royal family.
Seeing that Bai Potian's face was constantly changing, Xue Fei then smiled faintly and said, "General Bai still wants to pretend to be confused with me now?"
Bai Potian's face was a little depressed, and he said coldly: "What does the princess mean by this, is she threatening Bai?"
Who knows, Xue Fei did not hide it, and said lightly: "If you don't have a certain hole card in your hand, how can you make General Bai easily agree?"
"So, if Bai's answer at this moment doesn't satisfy the princess, the princess plans to take Bai's life the next moment?"
When Xue Fei heard this, she said lightly: "General Bai also knows the current situation in the imperial capital, if General Bai can't cooperate, then the result will naturally be self-evident." ”
"Your Majesty is so confident that after losing Bai, he can easily control the White Tiger Army under Bai?" Bai Potian seemed to have caught the hole card, his face returned to calm, and said slowly.
The White Tiger Army, one of the three major legions of the empire, has always been in the hands of the Bai family, and this is also the capital that the Bai family can gain a foothold in the world, what Bai Potian said is not alarmist, if the royal family gets rid of Bai Potian without any reason, then at that time, the angry White Tiger Army is afraid that it will rush into the imperial capital, and at that time the situation will be completely out of control.
However, there is not so much control over the current royal family, if the Bai family refuses to give in today, Chu Aotian must be determined to get rid of Bai Potian, otherwise with such a restless nail by his side, Chu Aotian will always have trouble sleeping.
Moreover, the reason why Xiao Ling was allowed to accompany him, Chu Aotian had another purpose in his heart, this purpose was to completely tie Xiao Ling to the royal family, and the reason was that this matter was not convenient for the royal family to do, and if one thing failed, then the royal family would be indelible infamy.
Water can carry a boat and capsize a boat, Chu Aotian can't stand such scolding.
Xiao Ling was also slightly aware of the royal family's move, but she didn't think about it so thoroughly.
It's just that Xiao Ling fully understands Chu Aotian's purpose in time, and Xiao Ling will not refuse.
With his current cultivation, there was no enemy in the imperial capital that was enough to make him fearful, and as long as he was willing, no one in the entire emperor could stop him.
Moreover, the worst thing is that he can also use the power of the Infinite Immortal Palace, which is as terrifying as the Supreme Temple, and it is not something that the Lingyun Empire can provoke.
The reason why Xiao Ling is so dedicated to helping the royal family is not for anything else, but to be able to help the royal family solve the current crisis as soon as possible, so that he can meet the Supreme Hall Lord Yun Qianshan as soon as possible.
This is what Xiao Ling is most concerned about at present.
Sure enough, at this time, Xue Fei said calmly: "There is no need for General Bai to worry about this, as long as I can get rid of Yang Ao, a traitor, my royal family will naturally have a way to control the White Tiger Army." ”
After a pause, Xue Fei said with a smile: "Besides, the two of us came here today, and we didn't alarm anyone, even if General Bai encountered an accident, who would know that it was my royal family who did it?"
At that time, as long as the father can find an excuse casually, he can easily regain control of the White Tiger Army. ”
Xue Fei's last words finally made Bai Potian's face completely change, looking at Xiao Ling who was staring at him, Bai Potian understood in his heart that Xue Fei's words were not alarmist but that she really dared to do it.
Seeing that Bai Potian seemed to be shaken, Xue Fei made persistent efforts, and then said: "General Bai, have you ever thought that if the royal family is really defeated in the hands of Yang Ao, with Yang Ao's character, when he controls the entire empire, will he let go of your Bai family and the White Tiger Army?"
Without waiting for Bai Potian to answer, Xue Fei answered: "I believe that General Bai is also an understanding person, this point is clear in my heart without me, whether you turn against each other and deal with my royal family with Yang Ao, or always maintain Zhongfeng and be impartial, if Yang Ao really succeeds in usurping the throne, I am afraid that the first person to deal with is the Bai family." ”
Bai Potian was silent, and Xue Fei's words pierced his heart like a steel needle.
As the head of the Bai family, Bai Potian is naturally not a fool, and he naturally knows what Xue Fei said in his heart, but he has been deceiving himself and holding on to luck.
Now that Xue Fei has no concealment and directly pierced it in front of him, Bai Potian's face suddenly became uncertain, and Xue Fei and Xiao Ling did not disturb him when they saw this.
After a long time, Bai Potian seemed to have lost all his strength, his hands hung down a little dejectedly, his face seemed to be many years old, he sighed helplessly, and said slowly: "The princess's words, how can Bai not know, but once the Yang family is lost, then the only one who can threaten the royal family in the imperial capital is my Bai family, if I agree to the princess's request, my Bai family can get it." General Bai rest assured, his father knew that the Bai family had been loyal to his duties for generations, and it was not Yang Ao and others, so his father had no intention of dealing with the Bai family, as long as General Bai promised to help the royal family this time and eradicate Yang Ao, a traitor, his father would definitely reward him according to his merits. Xue Fei said with a smile.
Bai Potian groaned, and at the same time swept to Xiao Ling, who was expressionless on the side, and struggled in his heart for a long time, and then said helplessly: "In this way, the princess should go back and tell Your Majesty that my Bai family has finally reached Your Majesty for generations, as long as Your Majesty orders, the Bai family will fully cooperate." ”
"General Bai Gao Yi, Xue Fei first thanked General Bai for his father. ”
Xue Fei saw that Bai Potian finally gave in, and her heart was naturally happy.
At this time, Xiao Ling, who had been making a move on the side, suddenly made a move, and slapped his palm fiercely in front of Bai Potian's xiōng.
Taking advantage of Bai Potian's lack of reaction, he quickly took out a small jet-black pill from his arms and threw it into the former's mouth. The pill melted in his mouth, and Bai Potian didn't have time to figure out what it was, so he swallowed it completely.
"What are you giving me food?," Bai Potian came back to his senses, pointed at Xiao Ling with a look of surprise, barely suppressed his anger, and said.
This medicine is extracted from the poison that is extremely toxic and has different medicinal properties, and it is tasteless and tasteless, if there is a corresponding antidote specially prepared, the poison can be solved on this continent only by a pair of hands.
"You" Bai Potian was shocked and angry, and said with a heavy face, "I have already agreed to His Majesty's request, why do you still want to harm me?"
"As long as you can cooperate with this operation, after the matter is over, I will detoxify you, if you are just for the sake of perfunctory, then in two months, these seven severed intestines will have an attack, and then you will die of poison. Xiao Ling said indifferently.
Xiao Ling's hand not only caught Bai Potian off guard, but also surprised Xue Fei.
Fortunately, she reacted very quickly, and immediately said: "General Bai, rest assured, as long as you do your best for the royal family, your father will never treat you badly." ”
Immediately after, Xue Fei handed over a bag of tips to Bai Potian, which contained Chu Aotian's instructions to Bai Potian.
After another polite gesture, the two followed the same path, avoiding all eyes and ears, and quietly returned.
Back in the palace, Xue Fei couldn't help but look at Xiao Ling with a smile on her face, and said, "I didn't expect you to look kind on the surface, but I didn't expect your heart to be so bad." ”
Xiao Ling was teased by Xue Fei, and she didn't spare her anger, she just shook her head lightly and said: "The heart of defense is indispensable, the reason why Bai Potian is sure to cooperate with the royal family is just for the sake of my cultivation being stronger than him, who can guarantee that after we leave, he will not switch to Yang Ao's men." ”
"Is that really as mysterious as you say?" Xue Fei asked softly with a cute brow.
When Xiao Ling heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "That's me who lied to him, that one is just a failed product of my previous alchemy, and there is no obstacle for people to eat it except for the taste is a little bad." ”
After a pause, Xiao Ling's words suddenly turned sharp and said, "However, if that guy is really just Yang Feng yīn disrupted this operation, two months later, I will personally take his life." ”
Xue Fei looked at Xiao Ling's cold look, her heart beat slightly, and then she left quickly after chatting a few words, she still had to report the matter to Chu Aotian.
When Chu Aotian learned that the Bai family agreed to help the royal family deal with Yang Ao together, he was also very happy, and at the same time, Chu Aotian also accelerated the deployment of the plan.
Time is not in a hurry, and a month passes in peace.
Early in the morning of this day, in the palace of Lingyun City, a piece of news suddenly shocked the world.
The current Lingyun Emperor Chu Aotian was accidentally poisoned a few days ago, and finally died after several months of cultivation.
After learning this news, the entire imperial capital was instantly in chaos.
In the Yang Mansion not far from the palace, a middle-aged man who looked to be in his fifties, dressed in a military uniform, had a calm expression on his face, and his eyes were slightly closed, as if he was thinking about something.
After a long time, the middle-aged man suddenly opened his eyes, and two sharp rays of light flashed away, and his indifferent face immediately smiled happily.
"Chu Aotian, that old horseman finally can't hold on?" the middle-aged man muttered.
Suddenly, the middle-aged man stood up from his seat suddenly, and then called his henchmen beside him, and said in a cold voice: "Inform me, everything is going according to plan, now I want to go to the palace to see if the old man is really dead." ”
"The head of the family, I'm afraid of fraud!"
"It's okay, I will bring Yang He and Mr. Wan at the same time, with the strength of the three of us, how can a mere palace stop me?" said the middle-aged man with a proud face.
After finishing speaking, he ignored the henchmen behind him, and the middle-aged man walked straight out. !。
