Jiang Yu walked to Jiang Xue, lowered his head and whispered a few words.

Jiang Xue looked up at him in surprise, her red lips slightly opened, about to speak.

He reached out and patted her shoulder in comfort.

"Someone is coming."

I saw Jiang Yu reaching out and taking out a bottle of something from under his sleeve robe, calling the palace servants, and giving a few instructions in a low voice.

The palace man took the things, nodded in agreement, and immediately retreated into the corridor.

The Wu Anlangs had some doubts in their hearts, but they were well-trained and still knelt on one knee and clenched their fists with both hands, not whispering to each other.

Not long after, the palace servant who had just received Jiang Yu's instructions came with two palace servants.

"The medicine Gu Shicai gave him was to lead the way." Jiang Yu stood with his hands behind his back, his chin slightly raised.

The Wu Anlangs were shocked and started to pull the trigger!

It is easy for border troops to sneak into other countries' spies. Unlike other spies, they are mostly tough-minded men. To deal with these people, ordinary punishments will probably not help.

Jiang Ji, the founding general of the Hebei Dynasty, got a poison in his early years. Those who take this medicine will not die immediately from the poison, but will suffer from the pain of intestinal piercing and abdominal rot every day. They will die after seven days. Only the antidote can relieve the pain.

This poison is very effective against the determined Xia Zuo.

However, this medicine was only held by the generals of Zhenbei in the past dynasties, and it was never spread to the outside world.

This medicine is the secret medicine of the Jiguo Zhenbei Army. They were promoted all the way from the army, so they naturally knew that this medicine was powerful.

"Half of the wine in the hands of these two palace ladies is poisonous, and half is non-poisonous."

"I just said that I will only try your luck today. I will ask them to put these twenty glasses of wine in front of you later."

Jiang Yu glanced around and said: "There is a half chance that you can choose one for yourself. Or, survive based on your ability."

"Or, just rely on luck to survive."

The Wu Anlangs looked at each other and had no choice but to say at the same time: "No!"

Jiang Xue took the tea from Xiaochun and blew it gently.

The second emperor brother actually changed his temper like this.

In the past, he had the most easy-going temperament in the palace. Even if the palace people around him made mistakes, the most serious ones would only be scolded but never punished.

Therefore, most of the servants in the palace like him, just like they were overjoyed to see him in the early winter.

Unexpectedly, after staying in the army for a long time, his temperament and heart have hardened a lot.

A wry smile appeared at the corner of Jiang Xue's mouth.

A Wu Anlang came forward to check first. The twenty bottles of wine were thick and turbid in color, but they were all clear yellow, just like ordinary wine.

It was impossible to make a judgment based on the color and taste of the wine. He frowned and knelt down.

"Your Highness, I apologize for the disrespect, but seduction is the military's secret medicine for dealing with the enemy. We are all soldiers of the Ji Dynasty, why would Your Highness use this medicine on us!"

"Although you are directly under the imperial guard establishment in the palace, you are also promoted step by step from the army. But do you still remember what the bounden duty of a soldier is?"

"Obey the order!" Wu Anlang shouted back.

"Very good." Jiang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, "Since I remember, why didn't I execute the order from the top?"

"Reporting to Your Highness, we are Wu Anlang, directly subordinate to Your Majesty and the Empress! Although Your Highness is the prince, he is not our direct superior! We only take orders from the Emperor and the Empress!"

The young man's stubborn face showed some dissatisfaction.

"Well said!" Jiang Xue put down the tea cup in her hand, stood up and walked to them.

"Who else has the same idea as this Wu Anlang? Take a step forward."

The remaining nine Wu Anlang bowed their heads.

"What's your name?" Jiang Xue raised her chin slightly and looked directly at Wu Anlang, who had just spoken.

"I, Jiang Qibin, have met the princess!"

"Jiang Qibin, you are right," Jiang Xue said with a smile, "You are all the best in the Ji Dynasty army. Since you were elected as Wu Anlang in the past, you only had two masters."

"One is the father, and the other is the mother." She strolled in front of the young man and said slowly:

"Your bounden duty is to absolutely obey the orders of the Lord. But today I want to inform you-"

She looked sternly: "Since your father, the Queen, and your mother have assigned you to this palace, from today on, you will only have one master in this palace! If you are unwilling at all in your heart, you can leave immediately, and I will not punish you."

The Wu Anlangs looked at each other and did not dare to make any move.

Jiang Xue looked at them with burning eyes and said, "I know that your ambitions are not just about power and wealth."

"Wu Anlang has always been responsible for guarding the emperor's palace, but you have an election every five years. Those with the best character, martial arts, and strategy can be ordered by the emperor to take command."

"I know that you have concerns. If you go with me today, you will most likely not go to the general election in two years' time."

"I will give you time to think about it. After a cup of tea, if you are unwilling to stay here, please leave on your own. I will never punish you."

"Xiaochun, serve tea."

Jiang Yu chuckled, looked at her with admiration, and sat with her on the porch to enjoy tea.

"Xue'er, you have really changed a lot. Now you act steadily and appropriately, without losing the majesty of a princess."

"Isn't that the case, Brother Huang? I have never seen you use such thunderous methods before."

Jiang Xue felt a little disappointed.

Jiang Yu noticed her gloominess and handed a snack into her hand.

"Xue'er, I am not only your brother, but also the only son of your father, the emperor, and your mother. I am the only candidate for the crown prince of the Hebei Dynasty."

"The absurdity and unruliness of the past should not appear in the country's prince and dynasty princess."

"So, making changes does not depend on our will. On the contrary, the sooner such changes are made, the better."

"Because this is our responsibility."

He gently stroked the back of Jiang Xue's hand and comforted: "You have grown up, and my brother is very happy. So my brother has changed, and I hope you will be happy for me."

Jiang Xue tried her best to smile and said, "I'm almost done drinking tea. Brother Huang, come with me to take a look."

The two walked over and found that four Wu Anlang were already half-kneeling in the front row.

"You go, I won't be in trouble. I will ask someone to explain things clearly to the Queen Mother. Just go back to your errands."

The four of them knelt down, kowtowed to her, and said, "Thank you, Your Highness!"

"No need to thank me. Regardless of whether you serve me or not, you are all good sons and daughters of Daji." Jiang Xue waved her sleeves, "Go back."

She turned to look at the other six.

At a glance, he saw the stubborn young man who had just argued with Jiang Yu.

"Jiang Qibin?"

"I'm here!" The young man stepped out of the queue and responded loudly.

This sound was too loud...Jiang Xue found it a little funny and asked him: "Why didn't you leave?"

"I never wanted to leave!"

"Just now you were the only one who came out to refute the Second Emperor's actions. I thought you were unwilling to stay."

Jiang Xue looked at him carefully and saw that he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, but his face still had a childish look that had not faded.

Wu Anlang's selection was so cruel, how did he stand out at his age?

"Reporting to Your Highness," Jiang Qibin said seriously, "I feel that His Highness's actions are inappropriate, so I retort. However, I am protecting the princess under the order of Her Highness the Queen. The safety of the princess in the future is my responsibility! I don't want to leave! "

Jiang Xue looked at him, he was really a simple young general.

Such a person will surely be a loyal servant.

She turned to everyone and said: "Since you have decided to stay, then follow the emperor's wishes and try your luck."

"You still have to drink this wine, but," Jiang Xue said firmly, "I will be with you!"

Several people were shocked when they heard this.

Jiang Yu looked at her with a smile, as if he wasn't worried at all.

"Everyone, if you are willing to drink this cup, from now on, I will advance and retreat with you."

Jiang Xue randomly picked up a glass of wine on the plate and drank it in one gulp.
