Chapter 2757 2759 [Broken tendon rotten pill]
After Li Chengye and Gao Xian left, Xiang Nan introduced Chai Mu to Pei Zhao.
"Mr. Chai is a member of Princess Mingyuan, and he has been active in the western region for these years." Xiang Nan recommended, "The reason why the attack on Danchi went so smoothly this time is thanks to Mr. Chai's assistance. Not only sent Qianlong envoys to explore the map, but also He also poisoned Dan Chi's war horse."
When Pei Zhao heard this, he saluted quickly.
"From now on, we will be a family." Xiang Nan said again, "Trust each other, help each other, work together, and seek a great cause together."
Pei Zhao and Chai Mu nodded.
At this time, Hu Xiao, one of the Qianlong envoys under Chai Mu, walked in with a solemn expression.
"Sir, Gu Jian did not meet us at the agreed place." He reported.
Hearing what he said, everyone was taken aback.
"How is it possible, where can he go?" Chai Mu immediately asked, "Have you looked around?"
"We have searched everywhere, but we haven't found any trace of him." Hu Xiao explained.
"Look again, within a radius of fifty miles, no, within a hundred miles, we must find his trace." Chai Mu ordered.
"Yes." Hu Xiao nodded, and then retreated.
"Fifth Prince, I'm sorry, I didn't expect such an accident. Don't worry, I will definitely get Jian'er back." Chai Mu apologized to Xiang Nan.
He knew that Gu Jian had unreasonable thoughts about Princess Nine, and he had persuaded him many times before, telling him to stick to his duty, keep in mind his blood feud, and cut off his emotions and desires.
Unexpectedly, in the end, he still had a problem, and he never returned with the nine princesses.
If he really elopes with Princess Nine, then things will be too bad.
As soon as it comes, the plan of marriage and marriage between Feng Dynasty and Xizhou will be gone, and Xizhou is likely to suffer from the endless anger of Feng Dynasty, and it will inevitably be destroyed by then;
Secondly, if Gu Jian does things so unreliably, Xiang Nan will have doubts about them. The so-called suspect does not need to be used, and the employing person is not suspected. Losing the trust of the fifth prince, how could they rehabilitate Gu and Chen.
"Jian'er, Jian'er, why are you so confused?!" Chai Mu said with hatred in his heart.
"Mr. Chai, don't worry, I think I know where they went." Xiang Nan waved his hand.
"Where?" Pei Zhao asked curiously.
"Xizhou Palace." Xiang Nan explained.
Qu Xiaofeng is not a love brain, and he cannot abandon his relatives for the sake of love. Otherwise, she would not abandon Li Chengyin and flee back to Xizhou after recovering her memory.
Moreover, Qu Xiaofeng is simple, but not stupid. As soon as Gu Jian took her away, the coalition forces of Feng Chao and Shuo Bo crushed Dan Chi, and she couldn't fail to notice the tricks in it.
So after she realized something was wrong, she would definitely choose to return to Western State. It was her home after all, and she could truly feel safe there.
Chai Mu was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, "I'll take people back to Xizhou Palace immediately."
…
After Chai Mu left, Xiang Nanxian and Pei Zhao went to Shuobo.
Prince Lidun has returned to Shuobo at this time, and Xiang Nan wants to see who can win the battle for the throne between him and the old King Shuobo.
But unexpectedly, it was still a step late. Prince Lidun moved faster than they expected.
Early after the coalition forces defeated Danchi's army, he had secretly led five thousand soldiers back to Shuobo.
Although the old Shuobo King received Chai Mu's reminder, he had already prepared himself and set up an ambush in the palace to kill Prince Lidun when he returned to the court.
But I didn't expect that it was still a short move. Yuan Ke, the commander of his bodyguard, was already a member of Prince Lidun, so he told him all the plans.
Prince Lidun seized the military power of Shuobo on the occasion of the crusade against Danchi, and dispatched 100,000 troops.
Therefore, Casaborg, King Shuobo's city, was extremely empty at this time. In addition, there were internal support in the city, so Prince Lidun took only 5,000 personal soldiers, and successfully entered Casa Fort, hacking the old King Shobo to death with a single sword. He himself sat on the Shuobo throne.
When Xiang Nan and Pei Zhao arrived, Prince Lidun had ascended the throne and became Shuo Bo's new king.
"King Lidun's movements are really fast. I originally brought soldiers to help you to the top, but I didn't expect you to have already done it yourself." Xiang Nan laughed.
"This kind of thing just doesn't do it, it doesn't stop, and it can't be delayed." King Lidun said triumphantly, "We people in the western region are impatient, we have an agreement, I will send troops, and you will help me get the position.
Now I have sent troops and won the battle, but I am waiting for you to replace me and become the prince, what time will it be! I couldn't wait any longer, so I did it myself. But Fifth Prince, in this way, it means that you didn't help me with this favor!
Forget it, I don’t care about it, when I go back to the Central Plains, I’ll tell your father, the old king Shobo, was **** on the battlefield in the battle with Dan Chi, and died a worthy death. That's it! "
Xiang Nan smiled, "King Lidun is right. It is better to ask for others than to ask for yourself. Don't worry, I will give you good words in front of my father."
"Thank you very much." King Lidun said with a smile, "Come on, let's serve wine. Fifth prince, should you wish me a glass?"
Immediately, the attendant brought up the wine.
"Okay, congratulations to King Lidun for fulfilling his wish and finally ascending to the throne." Xiang Nan raised his glass and said with a smile, "I also wish Feng Chao and Shuo Bo a good relationship and good relations for generations to come."
"Okay, we have good relations with each other, and we have been connected for generations." King Lidun laughed triumphantly when he heard this.
He didn't notice at all that when he raised his glass to drink, Xiang Nan had already flicked his fingers and poisoned his wine.
Because the movement was extremely swift, King Lidun didn't notice it at all.
Xiang Nan has learned skills from Li Guishou, Huang Yaoshi, Wudujiao, Ji Wubing, etc., and is good at the preparation of hundreds of poisons.
Some poisons are so toxic that they almost seal the throat at the sight of blood, and die immediately when swallowed;
Regardless of whether the poison is violent or slow, as long as it occurs, it will be difficult to get rid of it.
Xiang Nan got it for King Lidun, it is a slow poison, the name is [Duan Jin Yu Gu Pill].
As the name suggests, once this poison occurs, the bones and muscles of a person will slowly rot, from a healthy and strong person to a weak person with broken tendons and brittle bones.
Life is worse than death.
This kind of poison is latent for a month before it slowly takes effect, and within a year, the poisoned person will be tortured to death.
According to Xiang Nan's estimate, before the death of King Lidun, his subordinates would have already started fighting for power after they realized that he had become a useless person.
At that time, how King Lidun usurped the throne will be followed by others, and he will also be killed by others.
This is called retribution!
Xiang Nan knew that King Lidun was cruel, cunning, cold-blooded, and ambitious, so he would not trust him to rule Schobo.
