Chapter 179
"Don't talk about it." Elder Xiao turned his face away, not looking at Xiao Yuzhuo.

Xiao Yuzhuo sighed, and when she was about to speak again, Jing Yannian held her hand just in time.

She flicked it, but couldn't shake it off.

Jing Yannian held it tightly.

"Uncle, rest well." He said and dragged Xiao Yuzhuo away.

Back in Xiao Yuzhuo's courtyard, Jing Yannian persuaded in a low voice, "He must be feeling uncomfortable, and he is also worried. We have no way of guessing what happened to others. He rashly said that he has been controlled by drugs. When the addiction strikes, it may be in a bad shape. How does this make his colleagues and relatives see him?"

Xiao Yuzhuo narrowed his eyes, "He is afraid of these things, aren't you afraid? General Tangtang Jing, but he wants to use his appearance of drug addiction to persuade the emperor and the ministers, are you not afraid of being ridiculed? Are you not afraid of discipline?" Wang Dangyu took this opportunity to attack you?"

Jing Yannian stared at Xiao Yuzhuo fixedly, and didn't speak for a while.

Xiao Yuzhuo sighed, "Forget it, you can do whatever you want. I have ordered my people to know the dangers of this medicine from top to bottom, and told them to spread it so that everyone knows. But they haven't seen it with their own eyes. Thinking about it is not convincing enough. You are willing to sacrifice yourself for your righteousness, your king, your father...how can I object?"

"Yuyu, don't say that, it makes me feel very uncomfortable." Jing Yannian put her hand in his.

His eyes were like a bottomless pool, reflecting her reflection.

"I just don't want you to suffer that kind of crime... What I said before was too much. You can do whatever you want, I don't care. But remember, as long as you try, we will have nothing to do with you That's it. Fate ends here." Xiao Yuzhuo said calmly.

She was no longer as angry as she was when she said this in Wu Wangfu.

But such a clear and cold tone made Jing Yannian even more frightened than before.

"Yuyu, maybe I was impulsive... Didn't I discuss it with you? Since you disagree, I will naturally not abandon you." Jing Yan said young and slowly.

When has he not spoken in such a gentle and careless manner?

Xiao Yuzhuo glared at him, "If you don't leave, it will be dawn. Let's go!"

Jing Yannian shook his head again and again, "Yuyu is so angry, I dare not leave."

Xiao Yuzhuo laughed loudly, "You dare to take poison, there are things in this world that you dare not do?"

"I don't dare, I dare not provoke you again." Jing Yannian kept his minions secret, like a docile big cat.

It is a fierce tiger when it shows its minions.

Xiao Yuzhuo looked at a fierce tiger, cautiously in front of him, frightened, restrained like a cat, angry and funny, "I'm angry, don't you know the reason? If it wasn't for fear that you would become inhuman and ghost-like, What do I care about you? Why bother with yourself? "

"I know," Jing Yannian nodded repeatedly, "I'm crazy, I just heard from you, I haven't seen the harm of this medicine with my own eyes, I thought I was a strong-willed person, and I wouldn't become You said that..."

"Okay, you don't need to explain." Xiao Yuzhuo closed his eyes, "I also understand what you mean, wait until tomorrow, I will persuade uncle, if he is willing to speak up and let others know, wouldn't it be a waste of energy gone."

Jing Yannian coaxed Xiao Yuzhuo for a while.

Xiao Yuzhuo drove him away impatiently.

She thought about how to persuade her uncle and fell asleep in a daze.

Feeling that I just took a nap, I heard someone knocking on the door outside.

Xiao Yuzhuo hurriedly sat up, but saw that the sky was already bright.

"Lady, the Elder Master has left a letter for you." Ju Xiang said outside.

Xiao Yuzhuo hurriedly called her in, and before he could change his clothes, he took the letter in his hand, "Why did uncle leave me a letter? What does he want to do? Are you going away?"

Ju Xiang shook her head again and again.

Xiao Yuzhuo found the answer in the letter.

She looked at the letter and was taken aback.

After being dazed for a moment, she quickly lifted the quilt and stood up, with some surprise on her face, but also nervous and apprehensive.

"Lady..." Ju Xiang replaced Mei Xiang and dressed her, while looking at her suspiciously, "Master?"

"He has gone to the palace. He said in his letter that he will be at the court meeting..." Xiao Yuzhuo looked at himself in the bronze mirror, and was stunned.

"Are you going to openly reveal the true face of King Ji at the court meeting?" Ju Xiang asked in surprise.

Xiao Yuzhuo nodded slowly.

"Then..." Ju Xiang was also nervous for a while, "Maidservant, go ask Zhu Xiang to come over?"

Xiao Yuzhuo nodded heavily.

After Zhuxiang entered, Xiao Yuzhuo immediately gave instructions: "Notify the Alliance, mobilize the forces in Chang'an City and nearby areas, and be on call at any time. King Ji or the imperial court may do something... the Crown Prince is still alive, so Chang'an City cannot be thrown into chaos just like this. "

Zhuxiang was about to nod and leave.

Xiao Yuzhuo said again: "Don't rush away, send someone to Prince Ji's Mansion to keep an eye on the Turkic Princess Al, in case she jumps over the wall in a hurry!"

Zhu Xiang froze for a moment, then nodded and left.

"Will the great master really say this at the court meeting? Will the sage and the officials believe it? How will King Ji refute it? Does the sage believe him, or the king Xinji?" Ju Xiang asked a series of questions.

Xiao Yuzhuo glanced at her, and smiled helplessly, "Your wife is a mortal, not a god, how can you know?"

Ju Xiang clasped her hands together tightly, "Fortunately, the general has returned to the Yulin Army now, even if King Ji is in a hurry, it is not completely impossible to control..."

Xiao Yuzhuo squinted his eyes, people's hearts are the most difficult to guess, who knows how many people Ji Wang has won over by his side now.

……

Elder Xiao, who was at the court meeting, was not sure at this time either.

He didn't know how many people would wake up after he told the truth about what he had encountered, and how many people would disdain to ridicule him.

He can only gamble.

If even the Holy Majesty took the medicine of King Ji.

The result is even harder to guess.

If the Holy Majesty has been completely addicted to the drug, even if he loses face, is not afraid of people's words, and remonstrates with death, if the Holy Majesty does not appreciate it, his name will go down in history...I'm afraid he will be reduced to a piece of shit!
He couldn't hear what the ministers said at the meeting.

He could only feel ear-piercing sounds, buzzing, buzzing, disturbing him.

The last time he took that medicine was in the early hours of yesterday.Up to now, it has been nearly twelve hours.

He felt that his legs had begun to go weak, and his calf was trembling faintly.

His body was sweating profusely.

Say or don't say?

After finally mustering up the courage, I even left the letter for my niece.If I don't talk about it today, I'm afraid I won't have the courage to say it again in the future...

Now it's just a secret between him and his niece.

His ugliness is only a little known to his family... If it is revealed in the court, his ugliness will soon be known to the whole world...

Say or don't say?

Master Xiao felt that this was probably the most critical moment in his life in the past few decades, the most difficult moment in deciding life and death.

The eunuchs near the throne were already singing "Retire without incident—"

No matter how late, it's really too late.

"Minister—I have something to play!" Elder Xiao suddenly took a step and shouted loudly.

He only felt that his voice sounded loud, but every word seemed to tremble.

"I have something to say." He said it again.In just a few words, he broke out in sweat instantly.

It seems that one foot has stepped into the gate of hell, and whether the other foot enters or exits depends on luck.

The mentality of a gambler makes Mr. Xiao a little crazy at this time.

"What does Xiao Aiqing want to play?" Seeing that he stood up for a long while, the Holy Majesty could not help asking, but he folded his hands and did not speak.

Master Xiao cleared his throat, "I report to the Holy Majesty, I want to... thank His Royal Highness Ji Wang!"

King Ji, who was going up, was slightly taken aback when he heard the words.

The Holy Majesty let out an oh, "Xie Ji Wang, what?"

"A few days ago, on the occasion of my birthday, King Ji gave me a strange medicine, saying that this medicine is made from a rare fairy recipe! It can cure all kinds of diseases, prolong life, and make you grow stronger and stronger when you grow old! Take it once a day. Happy like a fairy!" While speaking, Mr. Xiao glanced at King Ji and smiled a little.

There was a burst of tittering in the hall.

Some colleagues who have a good relationship with Mr. Xiao asked, "Has Mr. Xiao become more powerful?"

More laughter.

Ji Wang frowned slightly puzzled and looked at Mr. Xiao.

When delivering the medicine back then, he said that this matter must be kept secret, and it is not enough for outsiders to understand.

What did he promote to himself in the court?
It sounds like a good word, but is it really a good word?

Master Xiao's face was startled, and he said slowly: "It's really been a long time, and my wife and concubines are very harmonious..."

Discord between wives and concubines in the family is probably the pain of every man.

Harmony between the wives and concubines means that the wives and concubines are satisfied, then this man is really amazing!

Everyone looked at Mr. Xiao enviously, and Prince Ji's expression relaxed a little.

Master Xiao's voice changed without warning, "But now I know what it means to drink poison to quench thirst. Those few days of majesty and prestige, I'm afraid that in exchange for not being able to stand up in the future..."

His voice was painful, his face was pale, and there was faint sweat oozing from his forehead.

Now it is the twelfth lunar month, the door of the main hall is open, there is no earth dragon fire, and the cold people are shivering.

The sweat on his forehead was even more dazzling and surprising.

Master Xiao knew that he was about to become addicted to drugs, and the desire in his body was almost uncontrollable.

But when he thought of his purpose of standing here and his wish to be fulfilled, he tried his best to restrain himself and continued, "For the rest of my life, I'm afraid that I will never be able to get rid of this medicine, otherwise, let alone satisfy my wife and concubine. I'm afraid I can't live anymore!"

There was an uproar in the hall.

It's too shameful for a man to lose that ability!No one will take it out and say it in public, and it's too late to cover it up.

That is the most primitive instinct of a man. If even this instinct is lost, is he still a man?
He is no longer a man, he can only embarrass his ancestors if he lives, what is the point of lingering on his last breath?

The words of the elder of the Xiao family caused a shock in the court.

King Ji immediately said angrily: "Scholar Xiao, stop talking nonsense!"

Elder Xiao turned his face and looked at King Ji fixedly, "What nonsense did King Ji say about my minister? Is it because His Highness Prince Ji never gave me medicine? Or is it because the effect of this medicine that I said is wrong?"

Ji Wang's thoughts changed sharply, "This king never gave you any medicinal materials! It's good that I went to Xiao's house on your birthday, but what I gave you was Gu Kaizhi's painting. Many people can testify that day!"

"King Ji is in the court, among the generals, the medicinal materials sent out must be more than one in the hands of the ministers! The medicinal materials in the hands of the ministers are called Wangyou Yao, and the actual effective thing is called A Furong, or there are other names, but the name It's just a painted skin, and when the painted skin is peeled off, the reality is the ugly and dirty reality!" Elder Xiao spoke fiercely.

At this moment, not only his face turned pale, but his whole body trembled uncontrollably.

He raised his finger and pointed to King Ji's nose, as if he opened his mouth to curse, but he was shaking so badly that he couldn't seem to curse.

The subject pointed at King Ji, which was disrespectful.

King Ji said angrily: "Come here, help this nonsense, delirious Xueshi Xiao down!"

Before the palace servants came up to help, Elder Xiao suddenly fell to the ground and curled up together, "Give me the medicine, give me the medicine, I can't take it anymore... I can't take it anymore..."

He screamed.

Above the main hall, everyone was shocked and silent.

Only the helpless and mournful voice of Master Xiao was left, echoing repeatedly between the beams of the room.

"Give me the medicine, just one pill, give it to me quickly... I won't quit the medicine anymore, I won't quit again... It's too painful, give me the medicine, please, King Ji please!"

Master Xiao turned over from the ground, crawled on his knees, hugging King Ji's legs, feet and robe, looking up at King Ji pitifully.

This is completely different from him who dared to point at Ji Wang's nose and scold him just now.

King Ji was sweating in shock, "Xiao Xueshi, have you finished singing?"

"Give me the medicine...quickly, give me the medicine...Ji Wang, please, I don't dare to quit the medicine anymore..." Elder Xiao ignored Ji Wang's words at all, he was trembling all over, his face was as pale as Ghost, but his lips are slightly darkened and trembling, which makes his articulation look particularly dull.

"If this is still an opera, then Xiao Xueshi's opera is too good, right?" Some officials whispered.

"His Royal Highness Ji Wang secretly gave Xiao Xueshi such a medicine, making Xiao Xueshi mistakenly believe that the medicine is a good medicine, but he became dependent on Ji Wang, what is the intention?" Jing Yannian suddenly stepped in from outside the hall and asked in a cold voice.

He was patrolling outside the gate of the palace, and he was very surprised when he heard the news from the palace, so he rushed over immediately, just in time for Mr. Xiao's drug addiction.

His heart immediately turned cold.

If it wasn't for Yuyu's threat to sever the relationship, if it wasn't for the uncle of the Xiao family's persuasion, the person who is cowering there now, crawling tiredly at King Ji's feet, wouldn't it be me?

Seeing Uncle Xiao's humiliation, he was particularly angry.

The hall was silent again.

Uncle Xiao's voice sounded particularly ear-piercing, "King Ji, I have kowtowed to you... Please give me medicine... I will obey your orders, you told me to go east, I will not Dare to go west, please, please..."

"Presumptuous!" The Holy One roared angrily, and suddenly stood up.

With the title of Weichen, only a courtier can be so humble when facing the Holy One.

Uncle Xiao seemed unable to see the Holy Majesty's wrath, he knelt down at King Ji's feet in humiliation, and kowtowed to King Ji.

Even if the courtiers see the sage on weekdays, they don't need to perform this great ceremony.

But at this time, towards King Ji...

The Holy One stood on the throne, looking down at King Ji.

His Majesty's eyes were red and red, and he was panting heavily.

The hall was quiet, as if the whole hall was filled with the sound of His Majesty's wheezing and wheezing.

Ji Wang shook his head again and again.

Master Xiao is going to kill him!
He absolutely did not expect that Mr. Xiao would do such a trick to him.

He is not afraid of their private revenge, because they need this medicine, and if they need this medicine, they will ask him for it.

When you ask for him, you will naturally be subject to him.

But Elder Xiao not only didn't follow this matter and hid it in secret, on the contrary, he made it public in the court meeting of the main hall.

He also exposed the ugliness of his drug addiction to everyone.

The dignified Mr. Xiao of the Lanling Xiao Clan!Did you actually put your own face in such a disregard?
How dare he use such a method of drawing fire from the bottom of the pot and killing everyone together! ?
"My son, it must not be like this, get up quickly!" Xiao Zhun kept looking at his son's behavior with cold eyes.

Trying to figure out the direction of the wind in the hall.

But now seeing his son couldn't take it anymore, Xiao Zhun couldn't stand it.

If you do this, the Holy One will hate Ji Wang for being true, and the Holy One will hate him even more!

Can he survive doing this?

The Xiao family's unshakable position in the imperial court and the succession of emperors in the past, the glory of being an extremely human minister, has it been exhausted in this short half hour?
At this moment, Xiao Zhun felt grief and indignation in his heart.

He stepped forward to pull the old man Shaw.

But he was pushed away by Mr. Xiao.

Although he was in good health, he was also very old, his legs and feet were not as nimble as a young man's, so he immediately fell to the ground, staring in astonishment.

All the officials in the palace were also dumbfounded.

Bachelor Xiao and Xiang Xiang?That's his father!

Kneeling to King Ji and pushing it to his father...

This is disloyal and unfilial...

Everyone looked at King Ji with cold, stern, contemptuous, terrified eyes... all kinds of expressions.

Only without appreciation and respect.

Ji Wang felt a chill down his spine.

The Holy One burst out laughing.

His eerie laughter echoed in the main hall, making people feel very sad for no reason.

Everyone looked at His Majesty's expression, as if His Majesty was also insane.

The Holy Majesty laughed for a while, tears came out of the laugh, he quickly put away the smile, "General Jing, take down King Ji for me!"

"Father, this minister was framed! This minister never knew about forgetfulness medicine! This minister never gave Xueshi Xiao any medicine! It was Xueshi Xiao who framed this minister!" King Ji shouted.

"What kind of aristocratic family is the Xiao family? How can I not know what kind of person Xiao Aiqing is?" The Holy Majesty didn't look at King Ji, his eyes fell on the ministers, "If you didn't give him this medicine, you would have caused him so far , even if you give him thousands of dollars, he probably won't lose his face and refuse to accuse you like this in this hall!"

These words were so convincing that the ministers couldn't help nodding wildly in their hearts.

How much the gentry cherish their own face!The glory of the ancestors is all on the face!
Even if he would rather shed blood and sacrifice, he would not just step on the glory of his ancestors under the feet of others!

If the elder of the Xiao family had just used a servant, a follower, to demonstrate the medicinal properties.

It is absolutely impossible to achieve such an effect, Ji Wang pushed, and evaded it completely, who knows where you got the medicine?Want to frame the prince with just someone?capital offense!

Watching the elder of the Xiao family twitch and roll on the ground.

Sitting by the side, Xiang Xiao burst into tears.

How can people believe that this sad and desolate scene is just to frame King Ji?

Jing Yannian didn't listen to Ji Wang's sophistry.

With the order of the Holy Lord, he immediately recruited the Habayashi Army into the palace.

When King Ji argued, he had already been captured by the Habayashi Army.

Some people in the hall were panicked.

"My Majesty, since His Royal Highness Ji Wang secretly sent medicine to Xueshi Xiao, he will naturally give medicine to other people. I beg your Majesty to investigate thoroughly, and see if anyone in the court and army has ever received medicine from King Ji!" Jing Yannian Arched his hands and said.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly changed again.

But there is a sense of jitteriness, and everyone feels in danger.

The Holy One narrowed his eyes, "Suppress King Ji first! Discuss this matter later!"

"My lord..." Jing Yannian wanted to say more.

But Xiao Zhun, who was sitting on the ground crying, glared at him sternly as a hint.

I saw that the face of the Holy One was dark and he was very displeased.

Jing Yannian did not say any more, and escorted King Ji to leave the hall.

King Ji was arrested.

Al, who was still in Prince Ji's mansion, got the news, packed up his little burden and wanted to run away.

It never occurred to her that she was surrounded by people as soon as she escaped from Prince Ji's Mansion and before she left Changpingfang.

Al is good at using poison, and the people who came here dare not get too close to her, and in broad daylight, these old men are actually wearing thick veils.

There are no gas masks yet, and a thick veil for protection is better than nothing.

Al squinted his eyes, stretched out his hand and waved a handful of white powder, which was blown by the wind like white smoke.

"Shut your breath!" The people around her shouted and gestured for everyone to do it.

Apart from using poison, Al's kung fu was a bit worse.

Seeing that there were so many people on the other side, she regretted slipping out of the house in such a haste.

She wants to hide back to Prince Ji's mansion right now.

But these people have been staring at her for a long time, how can they make her escape.

The two sides started fighting, and Al retreated while fighting, and she would shake something out of her sleeve from time to time.

Or smoke, or dust, with all kinds of strange fragrance.

Although these people held their breaths defensively, they still needed a lot of exercise, and they couldn't hold their breaths for long.

After inhaling the fragrance, some people become groggy and move slowly.

Some people even fell directly to the ground, unconscious.

Seeing that Al was about to retreat to Prince Ji's mansion again.

There are fewer and fewer people chasing her.

Al's heart relaxed, and he was about to jump into the courtyard.

However, they heard the sound of footsteps in the room, and someone shouted: "Surround Prince Ji's mansion, no one can come in or out!"

The court soldiers are coming!

Al was shocked, isn't this a catch in a urn?
Bah, she is not a turtle!
Al failed to break through, and was blocked back to Prince Ji's mansion. She turned over and just jumped into Prince Ji's mansion, but Prince Ji's mansion was completely surrounded.

……

"Miss, the person we were staring at failed to catch Al." Zhuxiang came back and said.

Xiao Yuzhuo frowned, "Tell her to run away?"

"That didn't happen. Seeing that she couldn't escape, she hid back in Prince Ji's mansion. It just so happened that the general sent the Habayashi army to surround him." Zhuxiang hesitated for a moment, "I guess she will fall into the general's hands, right?" ?”

Al got rid of the people sent by Xiao Yuzhuo, but he couldn't get rid of the fate of being arrested.

The poison on her body was almost exhausted during the previous battle.

When the Habayashi Army hunted and arrested her, all she could do was one or two poisonous fans.

When she finished her arrogance and used real kung fu, she was caught immediately.

King Ji is still under guard, but Al has already entered the torture room of the Habayashi Army.

Xiao Yuzhuo didn't have time to check on Al's condition for the time being, because his grandfather brought his uncle back from the palace.

The uncle looked crazy, and even the servants couldn't hold him down.

Xiao Yuzhuo hurried to the courtyard of the long house with Juxiang.

It took a few boys to get him into the bedroom.

He turned around and was about to jump out again.

Seeing Xiao Yuzhuo, his eyes suddenly lit up.

He raised his foot and wanted to run towards Xiao Yuzhuo.

"Ju Xiang, what do you think we should do?" Xiao Yuzhuo asked with a frown.

Ju Xiang touched her sleeve pocket, "Stabilize the master's mood first, then gradually slow down the dosage, cut it off bit by bit, and see if it works."

Xiao Yuzhuo nodded and told her to come forward.

Ju Xiang took out the pill and gave it to the old man.

The elder took it and swallowed it in one gulp, not even asking for water.

But he was short of breath, the effect of the medicine didn't seem to be that fast, and his face was still restless.

But the medicine entered his stomach, and it seemed to have a soothing effect on him.

The servants obeyed Xiao Zhun's order and locked him in the bedroom, finally he didn't resist so madly anymore.

Xiao Zhun glanced at Xiao Yuzhuo, "Come with me."

When Xiao Yuzhuo faced his grandfather, he always felt cordial, but today he was only nervous.

When Xiao Zhun returned to the Weirui courtyard, Mrs. Xiao hurriedly came to inquire.

"Sit aside first, don't ask anything, wait for me to ask clearly, and then ask what you want to ask." Xiao Zhun said.

Mrs. Xiao is the biggest one in the backyard, but once Xiao Zhun opens her mouth, she loses her voice.

Xiao Yuzhuo glanced at his grandmother, seeing her sitting quietly, without a trace of anger.

She lowered her eyes, isn't this the normal state of women in Daxia?As soon as a man speaks, a woman has to take a backseat?Even for a man as enlightened as his grandfather?

"Wangyou medicine is really given by King Ji?" Xiao Zhun asked.

"Yes." Xiao Yuzhuo nodded, "Before he returned to Chang'an at the earliest, he was given to the generals in the army."

"To whom have they been distributed in the court?" Xiao Zhun looked at Xiao Yuzhuo.

Xiao Yuzhuo shook his head, "I don't know about that, I just know...uh..."

She hesitated again.

Xiao Zhun's gaze darkened, "If I'm not wrong, he also dedicated this medicine to the Holy Majesty, right?"

Xiao Yuzhuo frowned, and after a while, nodded slowly, "Grandpa guessed right..."

Xiao Zhun let out a long breath, "No wonder, no wonder the Holy Majesty's face became so ugly when General Jing said in court today that he wanted to thoroughly investigate who among the ministers and generals had been contaminated with this drug! It's broken from the ground up!"

Xiao Yuzhuo lowered his eyebrows and remained silent.

"Will anyone who takes this medicine...will be as crazy as your uncle?" Xiao Zhun asked.

Xiao Yuzhuo called Juxiang to come forward, "You should say it."

Ju Xiang quickly blessed Fushen, "Returning to the old man, it is not always madness. Madness is when the drug addiction occurs, the body is out of control, and the consciousness is captured by the body's desire, so it will behave like this. If Take the medicine on time, and there will be no madness."

"Doesn't that mean that this medicine can also be eaten?" Xiao Zhun asked in surprise.

Ju Xiang quickly explained, "This medicine won't kill people immediately, the toxicity is slowly accumulated in the human body. At the beginning of taking the medicine, people's consciousness is in the frenzy and excitement paralyzed by the medicine, and they will make some stimuli they seek. For example, bloodthirsty generals may kill people, have sex with others, etc... probably like, uh... a person who loses his mind after drinking alcohol is about the same!"

Drunk sex.

This medicine can make people mess up after taking medicine.

"Disruptive temperament, captivating, deceitful! The medicine of deceit!" Xiao Zhun slapped his thigh fiercely.

After pondering for a while, he exhorted: "Yuyu, you have to remind General Jing that you must not act too hastily, and you must not force anyone who has taken this medicine. If you push too hard, there will be chaos in the court! What's more, the Holy Majesty himself..."

Xiao Yuzhuo nodded repeatedly, "Granddaughter understands."

"Where did this medicine come from? Is it available on the market?" Xiao Zhun asked again.

"It is said that the Turkic princess contacted Dashi and Persian merchants and bought this medicine from them." Xiao Yuzhuo said, "There is no circulation in the market, and they have always been in one-way contact with King Ji."

"King Ji has been controlled now, maybe he can attack the Dashi Persians." Xiao Zhun muttered in a low voice.

Xiao Yuzhuo lowered his eyes.

It was only now that Mrs. Xiao cleared her throat.

Xiao Zhun glanced at her, "Just ask."

It was only then that Mrs. Xiao could speak, "I heard that in the court hall today, the appearance of his drug addiction has been seen by everyone in the court meeting?"

Xiao Yuzhuo was stunned, she shouldn't be asking her this question, and she didn't see her again.

Xiao Zhun sighed, "Yes."

Mrs. Xiao raised her hand to cover her heart, "He had already made up his mind to quit drugs, and he survived the first few days, the days when the drug addiction was the most severe... If it wasn't for that stupid woman! If it wasn't for that Stupid woman!"

Mrs. Xiao clings to the low table, crying loudly.

Xiao Yuzhuo felt a little sad when he heard it.

Is this good or bad?
For the Xiao family, this is of course a bad thing. Be good to Mr. Xiao, he will lose all face after such a disturbance... He is addicted to drugs, and I am afraid that officials will not be able to do it in the future.

Maybe the Xiao family will be pointed at when they go out.

But if he hadn't re-infected with the drug, he wouldn't have experienced the subsequent pain, and he wouldn't have such a deep-rooted hatred for King Ji and the drug. He would never stand up and publicly say that he was captured by drug addiction.

Then it can't wake up the people around, and can't cause an uproar in the court.

Maybe the big drug lords Ji Wang and Al are still at large, plotting to kill more people.

……

She felt that no matter what kind of words she used to comfort her grandparents, they seemed pale and thin at this moment.

She blessed her body and quietly backed out.

Not long after she returned to her yard, she heard that Mrs. Xiao ordered Shibaniang to visit the eldest lady.

"Why does the old lady ask Shi Ba Niang to visit her at this moment?" Zhuxiang said in surprise, "The old lady must hate the eldest lady very much, right?"

Xiao Yuzhuo nodded, "I'm afraid my aunt won't survive tonight."

"Should I take a look at it?" Zhu Xiang asked with some concern.

Xiao Yuzhuo shook his head, "No need."

Knowing the result, why bother to ask about the process.

"Or, I'd better send someone to keep an eye on it, what if something unexpected happens?" Zhu Xiang felt uneasy.

Seeing her frowning, Xiao Yuzhuo nodded in a persistent manner.

Eighteen Niang came to visit the eldest lady, but she did not come empty-handed.

She brought white silk, poisoned wine, and a sharp dagger.
