It was so dense that it made one's scalp numb, and the poisonous things only crawled towards other people as if they were spiritual.

Not close to Jiang Si and Xun Li at all.

The poisonous insect is extremely venomous. Once bitten, it will instantly fall to the ground and convulse.

Zhang Biao saw this and backed away: "What the hell is this?"

"You can actually control these poisonous insects."

"Let's go first!"

The people brought by Zhang Biao were almost wiped out before they even had a chance to take action.

Zhang Biao wanted to run, but Jiang Si stopped him: "Want to leave?"

"Are you going to move the reinforcements?"

"You think I'll give you this chance?"

Jiang Si had nothing in her hands. She turned her five fingers into claws and strangled Zhang Biao's throat with one move. With a slight tug, Zhang Biao's eyes widened and his limbs softened unwillingly.

Zhang Biao died, and everyone else also died under Xun Li's poisonous insects.

There were numerous corpses lying on the ground.

Jiang Si knew that she couldn't stay here anymore. Regardless of whether Zhang Biao had spread the news before coming, it was not suitable to stay here anymore.

Xun Li said that Jiang Si's home was in the capital, so Jiang Si decided to move towards the capital.

When Xunli heard this suggestion, he opened his mouth to say something, but then swallowed it back.

Just some time ago, Zhou Jingxuan just returned to the capital.

Zhou Jinghan was poisoned and fell into a coma, and the capital was in chaos.

He had no choice but to return to the capital first. Qiu Shuang was not allowed by Zhou Jingxuan, but she took the initiative to tell Zhou Jingxuan that she would go to Wei Qing to take care of Jiang Si in disguise.

Not only did Jiang Yue return to the capital, but King Cheng also came.

Although it seemed quite satisfactory at the moment, Zhou Jingxuan knew that if Jing Han couldn't wake up, they would take action.

Not only them but also the person who joined forces with the Jiangbei noble family.

Since returning to the capital, Zhou Jingxuan has not had a good night's sleep for many days.

There were large bruises under his eyes and a lot of stubble.

King Zhaoning stepped forward and patted Zhou Jingxuan's shoulder gently: "It's time for Jingxuan to rest."

Zhou Jingxuan raised his eyes and glanced at King Zhaoning, his voice was somewhat respectful: "Uncle Wang, I understand."

King Zhaoning was Zhou Jingxuan's uncle, and he was also a brother to King Cheng and the late emperor.

The late emperor killed all those who threatened him, but only King Zhaoning and King Cheng survived.

King Cheng survived because he had enough capital to prevent Zhou Jinyan from touching him.

And this King Zhaoning is too inconspicuous.

No one cared about him since he was born. His mother-in-law was not a high-ranking concubine and was favored only once.

The reason why he survived later on was entirely because he stood firmly with Zhou Jinyan from the beginning.

Not only that, his leg was also broken in an accident. Even though it was later cured, he still walked with a slight limp.

Such a person is not outstanding politically and has some physical defects.

It was Zhou Jinyan's henchmen again who posed no threat to Zhou Jinyan and survived well.

After Zhou Jinyan became emperor, he became an idle prince, raising flowers and fishing.

If no one specifically mentions it, few people know that there is such a prince in the capital.

If it hadn't been for the changes in the capital this time, he would not have appeared in the palace at all.

Before Zhou Jingxuan came back, he was the one who stabilized the palace.

After Zhou Jingxuan came back, he let Zhou Jingxuan handle it, advancing and retreating in a controlled manner.

Zhou Jingxuan pinched his eyebrows and said, "Uncle Wang, thanks to you this time."

"If it weren't for you, I'm afraid it would have been a mess long ago."

Zhou Zhaohe's voice was gentle: "When your father was alive, he was my most respected brother. I couldn't do anything last time. If something happens to Jinghan again this time, if I can't do anything, I won't have the face to see your father in the future. "

"You should pay more attention to your health. The capital is counting on you now."

Zhou Jingxuan exchanged a few words with the emperor's uncle, whom he had never met before, and Zhou Zhaohe left.

The door was closed, and Eunuch Fu came in slowly, holding ginseng soup in his hand.

"Your Majesty, please drink some."

Zhou Jingxuan told him to put down his things first: "Eunuch Fu, you are an old man in the palace."

"Uncle Wang Zhaohe, how much do you know?"

Eunuch Fu had been following Zhou Jinyan from a very early age, so he naturally knew something about Zhou Zhaohe.

Eunuch Fu thought about it for a while before saying, "King Ning Zhao is a very good man."

"Clever, knows how to advance and retreat."

He hesitated and spoke: "The late emperor once said that if King Ning Zhao were his opponent, he would be the first to kill him."

"It's just that King Ning Zhao has never wanted to fight for power, and he later became disabled."

Zhou Jingxuan was silent for a moment, then raised his eyes and looked out the door.

Then he asked Eunuch Fu: "What happened to Uncle Wang's legs back then?"

Eunuch Fu sighed: "What happened at the beginning, King Ning Zhao's leg could have been cured."

"There was a heavy snowfall that year. King Ning Zhao was trapped in the mountains and broke his leg. Everyone around him was lost."

"He crawled in the ground for several miles before he was discovered. When he was brought back to the imperial doctor for treatment, it was already too late."

"The imperial doctor said that if he was discovered early and treated early, he might be able to recover."

"He already had injuries on his legs, and after crawling so far in the snow, his skin and flesh were frozen."

"That's how it happened. At that time, the late emperor went to see him specifically. He said that this was also a good thing."

"He doesn't have any ambitions anyway. It would be great if his legs can still walk."

"The late Emperor came back that night and was still talking to me."

A look of nostalgia appeared in Eunuch Fu's eyes, he missed the late emperor a little.

"The late emperor said that King Ning Zhao was really too smart."

Zhou Jingxuan already knew it in his heart. After listening to Eunuch Fu's words, he had more opinions on this little-known Uncle Wang.

This Uncle Wang is not necessarily worse than Cheng Wang.

If he guessed correctly, King Ning Zhao's leg was the certificate of submission given to his father.

There have always been rules in the Zhou Dynasty: people with improper facial features and physical disabilities cannot serve as officials.

Some small places may not be taken into consideration, but this has always been the case in the capital.

Not to mention the king of a country.

Zhou Zhaohe was lame, so naturally he was not eligible for that position.

Naturally, his father would no longer be suspicious of him.

So Zhou Jingxuan felt that Uncle Wang's leg was not an accident.

But he did it on purpose.

Being able to achieve this point shows that he has an extraordinary mind. If it hadn't been for this reason, even if he showed support for his father, Zhou Jingxuan felt that his father would not keep him in the end.

But it's different when the leg is broken.

Even if he is ambitious, those rigid ministers will not allow him to sit in that position.

Therefore, Zhou Zhaohe did this trick very well.

Although his body is disabled, he is the only one who lives a free and happy life without any power.

Even Cheng Wang was later tempted and suppressed by many parties.

Although King Cheng had military power in his hands, he was still on tenterhooks day and night.
