"Your Highness, I am the regent of Dayan after all. Shouldn't you get off your horse and welcome me?" Chu Zhao said to Sule Kundu with a smile as he walked.

Sulekun even vaguely felt that she was playing some trick, but since she was talking about it, it would have been timid and ungraceful for him not to get off his horse and greet her.

So, he had no choice but to get off his horse and go towards Chu Zhao.

With a smile on his face, Chu Zhao calmly took out the golden needle from his sleeve, held it in his hand, and walked towards him step by step.

The two finally came face to face. Sulekun was worried that Chu Zhao would plot against him, so he stopped two steps away.

"As a sign of sincerity in surrender, the regent should hand over the sword first!"

"Why, are you afraid that I will kill you?" Chu Zhao joked, taking off his sword and throwing it at him without hesitation, "You are such a big man with a thousand soldiers and horses, but you are still afraid of me? Woman, do you want to be so timid?”

Sule Kundu stretched out his hand to catch the sword she threw, and was not angry at his ridicule: "It is always better to be cautious. My brother was bold, but it is a pity that he is dead now."

"It's no use being cautious if you're going to die." Chu Zhao said with a smile, "I had an opponent who was very cautious before, but he also died."

Sulekun didn't know how to proceed, so he had no choice but to remain silent.

But Chu Zhao told him enthusiastically: "That man's name is He Yunjie. He was once the elder of the small pavilion in our Dayan Dynasty. I believe the eldest prince has heard of his name, right?"

Sule Kundu had no choice but to answer: "I heard that the son of Mr. He Pingchuan and the nephew of Empress Dowager Dayan is said to be a very well-off man."

"Yes, it was him, I killed him." Chu Zhao said, "Your Highness, do you want to know how I killed him?"

"..."

Sulekun realized that he had unknowingly let her talk a lot of nonsense. In order to prevent her from delaying any more time, he directly waved his hand to signal the soldiers behind him to come forward and tie her up.

Two soldiers came over with ropes to tie up Chu Zhao.

Chu Zhao said: "I am a regent after all. Your Highness, can you give me the face to do it yourself? I don't want low-level soldiers to touch me."

Sulekun didn't expect that she would make such a request, and was a little stunned for a moment.

Chu Zhao said: "You don't dare to get close to me, are you afraid that I will use a honey trap on you? Is His Highness the prince's determination so poor, or am I too beautiful for you to control yourself?"

"..."

Sulekun was speechless, and his deep and cold eyes fell on her face.

Then he had to admit that this woman was indeed stunning in the world, more beautiful than any woman he had ever seen.

When her eyes met his, the waves flowing inside made his heart skip a beat.

Sulekundu quickly looked away, handed the sword in his hand to the attendant, and took the rope from the soldier's hand.

"Since the regent wants me to do it myself, I will satisfy your request, but I will not show mercy just because you are a woman."

As he spoke, he walked up to Chu Zhao and put the rope around Chu Zhao's neck.

The distance between the two was already very close, and Chu Zhao suddenly threw forward and fell into his arms.

Sulekun was unprepared and subconsciously reached out to help him, angrily yelling: "You woman..."

He wanted her to be honest, wanted to tell her that seduction didn't work on him, but the next moment, he felt a stabbing pain in his waist.

He suddenly realized something and pushed Chu Zhao away suddenly. When he lowered his head, he saw a long golden needle stuck in his waist.

"Damn it, you damn woman, how dare you plot against me..."

He immediately pulled out the golden needle and threw it on the ground, glaring at Chu Zhao angrily.

Chu Zhao bent down to pick up the golden needle, took out the handkerchief, wiped off the dust on it, and put it into his sleeve like a hidden treasure.

She shook the handkerchief that had been rubbed with gold needles and showed it to Sule Kundu: "Your Highness, please don't get angry. This poison is very strong. Once you get angry, it will spread quickly throughout your body, and you will only die faster."

Sulekun didn't know whether it was true or not. Looking at the blackened veil, he still suppressed his anger and drew a knife to her neck: "I will kill you now."

"You won't survive even if you kill me." Chu Zhao said, "As far as I know, your father only has two brothers. Your brother is already dead. If you die again, your father will have no heirs. When the time comes, You can only benefit your cousins."

Sulekun never imagined that he would stumble twice in succession at the hands of this woman.

The first time, when he was about to capture Liangzhou, this woman suddenly arrived and told him an empty city strategy, so that he was attacked by two sides without distinguishing the truth from the truth, and had no choice but to escape in embarrassment.

This time, he was very careful and had the absolute upper hand, but he still fell into her trap.

Damn Dayan woman, so cunning!

When Sule Kun was angry, he felt the pain in his waist intensify, which made his already pale face even more pale.

He didn't dare to get angry easily anymore, so he could only force Chu Zhao to give him the antidote with a knife.

Chu Zhao said: "It's not that I don't want to give it to you. The antidote has been used up. If you want it, you can only prepare it now. But one of the medicines is still very difficult to find. It grows in your territory in Xirong, and its name is Zhuyuehua."

Moonflower?

Sule Kundu's expression changed.

There is indeed a flower that can be used as medicine in the Xirong Kingdom called the Moon Flower. The habit of this flower is exactly the opposite of that of the sunflower. It blooms chasing the moonlight. It blooms when the moon rises and withers when the moon falls. The flowering period is very short.

Because it is a unique flower in Xirong and only grows on the mountains near the capital. In order to pick it, many herb collectors will travel long distances to the capital and stay on the mountain all night long, waiting for it to bloom.

Such a rare herb, did this woman really use it to prepare an antidote?

Could she be lying?

Sulekun rolled his eyes and thought of many possibilities in an instant. He even suspected that Chu Zhao was lying to him and wanted to trick him back to Xirong.

The second brother Wang is dead. If he returns home, he can only take the remaining troops with him. In this way, the threat on the Dayan border will be automatically eliminated.

This woman is really good at calculating.

Sule Kundu looked gloomily and asked Chu Zhao for confirmation: "You don't need the Moon Chasing Flower at all. You just want to trick me back to Xirong, right?"

Chu Zhao laughed, neither admitting nor denying, but asked him: "No matter whether my words are true or false, does your highness dare to bet with me with your life?"

Sulekun was speechless.

This woman was right, he really didn't dare.

The second brother of the king died, and his father was the only son left. He didn't dare to gamble, and he was reluctant to gamble because he didn't want to give up the throne that was so easy for him.

"You don't have to be too proud. Even if I want to go back to Xirong, I will take you back with me." He gritted his teeth and said bitterly, "If you can't cure my poison, just come with me to see the King of Hell."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Chu Zhao burst out laughing as if he heard something funny.

She doesn't mind seeing the King of Hell, but she doesn't know if the Lord of Hell wants to see her?
