Abandoned Daughter from a Noble Family: Poison to the World

From Quanzhou to Yunchuan City, Yuan Li traveled day and night, and more than a dozen horses died along the way, but he finally arrived at the capital.

"See the prince's badge, as if you have seen the prince, open the city gates!"

She hardly closed her eyes, and her lungs seemed to be torn like a horse that had died of exhaustion, with blood constantly flowing out, and her breath was filled with an indelible smell of blood.

The soldiers guarding the city gate seemed a little stiff, like puppets. After waiting for a moment, a crow flew into the sky from the city wall, cawing.

The soldiers slowly opened the city gate.

As soon as you enter Yunchuan City, you will see countless huge Jingguans standing in the city, with wild dogs pouncing on food and crows pecking at carrion everywhere.

The whole city was filled with a rotten stench, and Yuan Li couldn't help but cover his mouth and nose with his sleeves.

It is said that there is a lot of miasma in the dense forests of the southwest. Over there, the miasma is caused by the rotting of trees, while here, the miasma is caused by the fermentation of the stench of dead bodies.

Yuan Li smelled and retched, but there was really no food in her stomach. She pinched her palm hard until it bled, and then she felt a little better.

The horse brought her into the imperial city. The streets were full of patrolling troops. It was like returning to the time when Su Bai was plotting a rebellion. The people closed their doors and windows, and the whole place was extremely desolate.

"She asked me to give you the life-extending grass."

Yuan Li held the prince's badge and walked unhindered into the palace.

That night, Xi Su emptied out the Marquis' Mansion and broke into the Imperial Palace. She used Su Bai's army to blockade the Imperial Palace and Yunchuan City.

The female party said nothing, and Xisu simply sent people to supervise them.

Prince Rong became Xisu's right-hand man, assisting Xisu with all his heart and treating Xisu as the agent of the prince who was far away in Quanzhou.

Xisu had changed a lot. Her long snow-white hair fell on her shoulders, and even her eyebrows had turned snow-white. Her eyes were bloodshot, her face was as white as paper, and her forehead seemed to be inked, with a huge spider nailed between her eyebrows.

"Yuan Li, you should have a good rest. I'm fine. Your Highness should also know that I'm fine."

Xisu seemed unable to walk and was sitting in a wheelchair. Next to her was the main seat in the Zichen Hall. She held a handkerchief in her hand and carefully wiped the dust off the seat.

Even though she wiped it every day, she still hoped that everything would be perfect when that person came back.

"What's wrong with your stomach?"

Yuan Li looked at Xisu in surprise. Not only did he look much older, but Xisu's body had also undergone drastic changes.

Xisu's abdomen was swollen, as if she was ten months pregnant, and her originally wide robe was pushed out into an arc shape.

Xi Su laughed dumbly and pointed at her belly. "This is not a big deal. I made a deal with Wu Tuyue. I will use this Gu fetus in exchange for the Yin Yang Gu that can control 400,000 troops."

Very good deal.

Yuan Li walked forward and solemnly took out the medicine box tied to his arms. Perhaps he was too tired, his palms kept cramping, and it took a lot of effort for him to place the medicine box steadily on the desk in the Zichen Hall.

"Sister Xisu, please take the medicine. I have to watch you take it with my own eyes so that she can feel at ease."

She actually didn't understand Su Wanqing. Even if Xisu was the top killer in Yun Country, he would not give this extremely precious life-extending grass to him.

Xisu stroked the medicine box without opening it. She stroked the gardenia carving on it with her fingertips and a faint smile appeared on the corners of her mouth.

Tears fell from her eyes, and she couldn't stop crying as she laughed.

"This was the only pill that could save her life, but she gave it to me anyway."

Yuan Li was horrified, "Isn't there a third life-extending herb over at Kang Lake?"
