Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

Chapter 734: Capture the thief first and capture the king first

"Yes, Jiang Xue is right." Xiao Zhan agreed and nodded slightly.

"This is very confusing. How could the raw arisaema, which should have been in the medicinal residue, appear in Miss Feng Qin's clothes?

Could it be that all of this was carefully planned by the Feng family, who intended to take advantage of the Queen Mother's critical illness to eliminate me as an obstacle?

I didn't expect that in the eyes of Patriarch Feng, I was such a hindrance that he was willing to take the risk to get rid of me. He really went to great lengths to do that."

Feng Ji never expected that Xiao Hunruo actually carried this fatal evidence with him! He also didn't expect to be exposed by Jiang Xue on the spot!

In a rage, Feng Ji slapped Xiao Hunruo without saying a word.

The palm strike was so heavy that Xiao Hunruo's cheek immediately became red and swollen, and even one of her teeth was knocked out. Seeing this, Jiang Xue unconsciously touched her cheek, as if she felt the pain herself.

Xiaohunruo stood up with her face covered, her eyes still slightly narrowed. If it weren't for the shocking scars on her face, her smile would still be charming.

However, those who are familiar with her know what kind of bottomless resentment is hidden under this smiling face.

From her childhood till now, no one has ever dared to be so rude to her, even the old owner of Prajnafang had never touched her.

“Father, I added this raw Arisaema to the Queen Mother’s medicine bag according to your instructions.

Now that the truth has been revealed, how can you put all the blame on me just to protect yourself! Even though I am an illegitimate daughter, I am still your flesh and blood! Everything I did was in accordance with your orders!"

In order to avenge the slap, Xiao Hunruo took the opportunity to blame all the crimes on Feng Ji.

Feng Ji's face was as pale as paper, anger and fear intertwined, his body trembled with anger, and finally turned into a bitter smile.

When he faced Xiao Zhan's sharp gaze, fear gradually replaced everything.

His legs were weak and he fell to his knees, his forehead pressed to the ground not daring to look up, his hands clenched tightly but not daring to move, like a prey waiting to be judged.

"Listen carefully, the Feng family committed treason, plotted to harm the Queen Mother, framed Princess Changle, and colluded with the rebels. The entire clan should be executed!"

Xiao Zhan no longer paid any attention to the cowardly man on the ground. He directly ordered the arrest of the Feng family and put them in death row. All of the Feng family’s property was confiscated, and the nobles who colluded with them were also detained and interrogated. No one could escape.

With the rapid downfall of the old nobles, Xiao Zhan turned to Qu Shang and Xiao Hunruo, the only two remaining people in the hall.

"Next, we should settle the accounts."

After ensuring the Queen Mother's safety, Xiao Zhan asked Mo Yan to temporarily escort her out of the hall. He and Jiang Xue walked down the steps side by side, ready to face new challenges.

"Xiao Hunruo, you are still so insidious."

Jiang Xue stared at Xiao Hunruo coldly, watching her smile and then take off the disguise on her face, revealing her true face.

Xiao Hunruo's appearance can only be described as delicate, not outstanding. But her curved eyes are always smiling, which makes people easily mistake her for a gentle woman.

However, her heart is darker than the night, and her methods are extremely cruel. Yu Prajna's experience is the best proof of this.

"You are the same. Your methods of calculating people's hearts are not much better."

Xiao Hunruo counterattacked: "The result is important, isn't it? Jiang Xue, I lost this time, but I don't want to die, so how about proposing a deal?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Nangong Yue jumped down from the beam and stood between the two of them.

"Nangong Yue took my secret medicine and now only listens to my orders. I know Yu Prajna wants to take him back, and I can agree. As long as you let me and High Priest Qu leave, I will leave Nangong Yue to you."

She did not mention the antidote, intending that once she escaped, Nangong Yue would still be her puppet.

"Oh?"

Jiang Xue approached Nangong Yue, walked around him and stopped: "What if I don't agree?"

"Then he will be my slave forever, and he will be buried with me when I die."

Xiaohunruo ordered: "Kill her!"

Nangong Yue made a quick move, but the blade stabbed somewhere else - it turned out that his sanity had already recovered!

Blood splattered, staining the pillar red. Xiao Hunruo looked at the awake Nangong Yue in disbelief, the severe pain made her unable to stand.

It turned out that Jiang Xue had secretly detoxified the poison when she was circling. Eight years of secret medicine research was instantly ineffective in her hands.

"You stole the basic formula of this secret medicine from the White Ghost, didn't she tell you that I had cracked it ten years ago? All you got is a piece of paper."

"High Priest Qu, your companion's life is hanging by a thread, don't you intend to save her life?"

Xiao Zhan stared at Qu Shang warily, and seeing that he was indifferent to Xiao Hunruo's plight, his suspicion deepened.

Qu Shang watched coldly, not caring about Xiao Hunruo's situation, which made Xiao Zhan even more wary of him.

"It's no use saving this man."

He glanced up at the rooftops and thought to himself that the other man was obviously more valuable.

"Why are you still standing there? Do you want to wait for me to be torn into pieces by them?!"

On the way to the palace, Qu Shang realized that Li Yi had been following him.

Although he was dissatisfied with this servant who dared to act beyond his authority and tried his best to get rid of him, in the current situation, there was really no one else who could be of use except Li Yi.

At least now we need his help to break out of the encirclement, and then we can consider how to get rid of him.

As soon as Qu Shang finished speaking, there was a noise on the roof, and then Li Yi broke through the hole and jumped to the ground.

"You remember to look for me now?"

Li Yi stood in front of Qu Shang, with his back to him and his head slightly tilted. His low voice was filled with unquestionable majesty.

"Stop talking nonsense, wait until you get out of this encirclement!"

Qu Shang was just about to take out the flute from his waist to play, but was interrupted by Xiao Zhan's sword energy. The flute broke instantly and could no longer be used.

"High Priest Qu doesn't really think I will give you a chance to use the power of the Five Poisons, do you?"

Xiao Zhan said. He had seen the power of the Five Poisons from Jiang Xue, so he would never give Qu Shang any chance to use it.

"Coat, you have been waiting for a long time, I will leave it to you today."

Xiao Zhan pointed at Li Yi and spoke to the coat behind him that was ready to go.

Li Yi was the culprit who killed Xiaochun. Since that day, Daiyi has been practicing hard every day, just to avenge Xiaochun with his own hands one day.

Now that Li Yi has come to him on his own initiative, Da Yi will certainly not miss this rare opportunity.

"The revenge for the murder of my wife must be paid with blood!" Da Yi gripped the weapon tightly, leaped suddenly, and pounced on Li Yi!

"I really don't know how to live or die!"

Li Yi did not take the coat seriously, and was confident in his own strength and speed. His target was Xiao Zhan - to capture the thief, he must first capture the leader. As long as Xiao Zhan was captured, the rest of the Yulin Army would be nothing to worry about.

"Hehe, don't underestimate the people around me, Li Yi."

Xiao Zhan saw through Li Yi's contempt for the coat, sneered, and reminded him that on the battlefield, underestimating the enemy is the most fatal mistake.

When Li Yi and Da Yi were fighting fiercely, a black shadow suddenly swooped down from the air and went straight for Li Yi's vital point on the back!

"Li Yi!" Qu Shang screamed in horror upon seeing this.
