Chapter 242: My Life Is in My Hands

Sheng Qingyuan raised her head and looked at him, there was no fear and fear in her eyes, the coldness in her eyes was no less than his, or even worse, the leader was slightly stunned.

She stood beside Shen Zhao, and her beautiful face showed a smile, and her smile was like a flower, which was amazing.

Standing beside Shen Zhao, her momentum was not lost at all.

Sheng Qingyuan looked arrogant and looked at the leader contemptuously: "My life is in my hands, whether I die or not, naturally I have the final say."

The leader saw her arrogant and complacent, and coldly spat out two words: "Arrogant."

"Your Highness, I don't know if anyone has ever told you that people who are too arrogant will have only one final fate, and that is to die a particularly miserable death."

Sheng Qingyuan laughed, "Really? No one really told me."

"Has anyone told you that the capable are arrogant and will survive to the end, because they often rely not only on force, but also here."

She pointed to her head.

The leader was dismissive: "No matter how good you say, it's useless, the three of you, even if you can fight one against two, you don't want to escape."

He raised his hand to get the people behind him ready, and he heard Sheng Qingyuan sneering and said faintly, "When did we say that there were only three of us."

The leader was stunned for a moment, and he felt a chill and saw a group of people coming out of the bamboo forest.

The leader wanted to retreat, but he didn't expect that someone had already appeared behind him, staring at them not far away.

Sheng Qingyuan looked at them coldly: "You think of blocking us on this road, why don't you think about it, we will also use this road."

If you want to ambush and annihilate her and Shen Zhao in one fell swoop, this road is the best ambush place.

It was impossible for them to run back, there were people in front of them who wanted to kill them, and there was nothing to do, even if she and Shen Zhao wanted to escape, they could only run in the direction of the cliff.

Forced to the cliff, she and Shen Zhao have wolves in front of them and cliffs in the back, and they will definitely die if they fall into their hands, and there are no bones left when they jump from the cliff.

This is not to leave any way back for her and Shen Zhao, and if you want them to die, you will definitely die.

It's really a good calculation, and I really don't want her to return to Yanbei.

But she didn't want her to return to Yanbei, so she just wanted to go back, so that the people who wanted her to die could take a good look, she not only came back, but also came back intact.

The leader looked at their people, gritted his teeth and was about to rush up, but when he was halfway through, he suddenly felt his whole body sore, and he landed on one knee and stuck his sword on the ground to stabilize his body.

He looked sideways at the others, and they all had the same symptoms as him.

"Boss, we have no strength, we can't get up."

"When did you poison you?" The leader looked at Sheng Qingyuan, but he didn't expect her to calculate this step, such a scheming is frightening.

Sheng Qingyuan smiled lightly: "It's already been down for a long time, but it will take some time for the poison to be released."

"Why didn't I notice you were poisoned? You didn't even come near me." The leader was puzzled, and he didn't understand anything.

"I didn't get close to you, I can still poison you, isn't it blowing? Just let the wind bring the powder into the air, and you won't notice it when you smell it."

Sheng Qingyuan approached him step by step, and finally stopped in front of him: "Our people have already taken the antidote beforehand."

Shen Zhao ripped off the leader's scarf, and there was a scar on the man's face, but he and Sheng Qingyuan didn't know each other.

The leader knew that they were defeated today, and he thought that this was a 100% win-winning battle, and it would not take much manpower to deal with her and Shen Zhao, but he didn't expect that she would be calculated.

Dead soldiers, either complete the task, or there is only one end, and that is death.

A strange color flashed in the leader's eyes, and he was about to bite the poison hidden in his mouth, and before he was about to bite the poison and kill himself, Shen Zhao took a step ahead of him, restraining his jaw and preventing him from biting the poison.

The rest of the people wanted to bite it, but Shen Zhao's people stopped it one after another, and no one present bit the poison.

Sheng Qingyuan took out two small bottles

, one handed it to Xuan Yi, and the other held it himself: "You give them a smell from the left, and I will smell it from the right."

Xuan Yi nodded, the two of them moved quickly left and right, and after a while, they stood next to the leader, the leader struggled, Sheng Qingyuan took the bottle and put it on the tip of his nose, and the leader fainted after a while.

Sheng Qingyuan put away the medicine bottle, watching them think of the next action for a while, and his eyes showed a little disgust.

"Is there a river nearby? Move them all to the river, where is it more convenient, we don't have any pots now, go to the river to wash."

Shen Zhao's secret guard nodded, and said respectfully, "Princess, there are three rivers here, and one of them is relatively close, can you take them all there?"

"Well, take them all." Sheng Qingyuan nodded, taking Shen Zhao's hand and following them.

When they arrived at the river, Xuan Yi gave her her medicine box, and Sheng Qingyuan took out the tools and some needed medicines from the medicine box, starting with the leader, and disposed of the poison hidden in their mouths one by one.

Want to die?

It will also be interesting to see if she agrees.

After all the poison in her mouth was removed, Sheng Qingyuan washed her tools and hands by the river, and Shen Zhao took the handkerchief and carefully wiped the water on her hands when she turned around.

After wiping it, he took her hand and kissed her on the back of his hand: "It's clean."

Sheng Qingyuan was stunned for a moment, and then her heart warmed, and she smiled: "Shen Zhao, you are so good."

The healer is benevolent, but she doesn't feel disgusted if she changes to anyone else, but this group of people are coming to kill her, and she has to deal with the antidote for the sake of the plan, so she feels disgusted and irritable, and even feels that her hands are not clean when she touches them.

Shen Zhao took her hand: "The medicine has already been given to them, just wait for them to wake up."

Sheng Qingyuan found a stone to sit down and leaned on his arm.

In the early hours of the morning, the dead soldiers woke up, and the strangeness in their mouths baffled them, and the leader looked at Sheng Qingyuan, who was sitting in front of the fire.

He said, "What have you done for us?"

"It's just the poison in your mouth." Sheng Qingyuan turned the grilled fish in his hand and didn't look at him: "Now that your life is also in my hands, let me ask you, did the military department Shangshu let you come?"

The leader smelled the aroma of the grilled fish, his stomach rumbled, and he was not ready to answer.

"I have drugged all of you, and you will come to me once a day to get the antidote, and if you don't tell me what I want to know, you will only suffer from flesh and skin."

"This poison won't kill you, but it will make you feel like ants eating your heart." ap.

Sheng Qingyuan handed the grilled fish to Shen Zhao: "This is the best, for you to eat."

Shen Zhao took it, and after removing the burnt part outside, he gave her the first bite to eat, Sheng Qingyuan took the fish and continued to grill it, glancing at the leader lightly.

His face was dark, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

She was not in a hurry, and glanced at Xuanyi: "Go ahead, lest they not believe it."

Xuan Yi handed the grilled fish in his hand to his companions, walked to the dead soldiers, picked the nearest person, and took the medicine bottle and sniffed it.

Xuan Yi came back, and he didn't take two steps before he heard the miserable screams of the man who had just smelled the medicine.

The man grabbed his heart's clothes and rolled on the ground in pain, and his painful features looked hideous and twisted: "It hurts, it hurts, boss, it hurts to death."

After a while, a cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he suddenly rolled into the river: "It's hot, I'm so hot, it's too hot."

After a moment of being comfortable in the river, he shivered and got up again, curled up on the ground, and his whole body was trembling: "Cold, so cold, so cold."

The leader was beside him, watching his painful face distorted and pale, and his eyes were painful.

"The pain of ants eating at the heart, followed by the pain like being burned, if you go to the water, you will feel chills all over your body." Sheng Qingyuan explained slowly.

"Do you want to tell me?"

The leader bit his lip and grabbed the man with the poisonous hair tightly, and when he saw the man with the poisonous hair, he pleaded with him in pain: "Old

Great, kill me, kill me."

The leader's face was unbearable, the man secretly held the stone, Sheng Qingyuan said: "If you want to commit suicide, you also have to think about whether you can kill you with one blow, if you can't die once, I will revive you and let you continue to enjoy the current pain."

The leader took the man's stone, looked at Sheng Qingyuan and said in a deep voice, "Antidote."

Xuan Yi looked at Sheng Qingyuan, seeing that she nodded and sent an antidote over, the man took the antidote and breathed heavily, and after a while, he hugged the leader with joy.

"Boss, I'm fine."

The leader patted him and walked to Sheng Qingyuan's side without saying a word.

"It's him."

"What else do you want us to do? Will you accuse him?"

Sheng Qingyuan nodded: "I really want to accuse, but it's just a matter later, now I need you to go back and tell him that Shen Zhao and I fell off the cliff and died."

"You can find a way to get my people into his house."

"Over the years, you have followed the military department Shangshu, and I want to help him do a lot of shady things, right? I want proof of what I did."

The leader shook his head, "We don't, he gives us verbal orders."

"Then go and find it." Sheng Qingyuan's voice was faint: "You should always remember what you have done, write down all these things, and then take my people to find clues and search for evidence."

"After helping me get things done, I'll detoxify you."

"Then you will be free."

The leader was relieved when he heard this, and nodded, "Okay." Anyway, now there are only two choices in front of them: death and immortality, and if they don't help her, they will definitely die.

Or tortured to death, help her do things, and be able to be free.

Some of Shen Zhao's people left with the leaders, and the remaining part escorted them back to Yanbei.

Yanbei.

When the military department Shangshu received that the leaders Shen Zhao and Sheng Qingyuan were dead, he smiled.

Well, Sheng Qingyuan is dead, and there is no one to compete with his grandson for the position of emperor, and the position of the emperor must be sat by the people of his Dong family no matter what.

As long as the grandson can sit on the throne of the emperor, the Dong family will be able to rise to the top.

Emperor Yanbei waited for Sheng Qingyuan to come back, counting that the day was almost up, but his daughter had not yet arrived in Yanbei, and there was still no news after waiting for two more days, and there was no response to the letter he sent, and Emperor Yanbei couldn't sit still and asked people to investigate the matter.

After some investigation, it was learned that Sheng Qingyuan and Shen Zhao had already left Da Zhou to rush to Yanbei, but they had not returned to Yanbei for so long, and I am afraid that there would be less luck.

Emperor Yanbei sat down on the dragon chair and frowned when he heard this: "Impossible! Qing Yuan will not have an accident, let me find it, and on the way from Da Zhou to Yanbei, send someone to find me."

When the fifth prince and the sixth prince heard the news, they were also worried and worried about the two.

A few days later, the people who were sent out to find the whereabouts of the two came back, and there was no trace of the two along the way, and they saw a carriage on the road, which should be His Highness, and they followed the traces to find it, and His Highness fell off the cliff.

Emperor Yanbei was so angry that he spit out a mouthful of old blood and fainted.

The six princes immediately summoned the imperial physician and followed the five princes to stay by the emperor's side.
