"You want me to seduce the Crown Prince? Why are you crying now that I've entered the pala

Chapter 209 He's just that vengeful

"What happened?"

The girl's voice, hoarse from being woken up, was so soothing to the ears in the night.

Chu Jiang's Adam's apple bobbed. He pulled back the covers, got into bed, and pulled the person into his arms: "Sleep, nothing's wrong."

Perhaps his words reminded the girl of something, for she paused for a moment, then her voice seemed to clear up a bit: "You said you wouldn't hide anything from me."

Chu Jiang lowered his eyes and looked into his arms, but he couldn't see anything clearly in the darkness.

"Someone died in the street." He held the little girl's soft hand and relayed the butler's words without changing his expression: "They said he was poisoned, and the death was extremely gruesome. His belly was swollen like a pregnant woman's, and his eyes..."

"Stop talking!"

Thin lips were covered by a warm, fragrant hand, and the slender body in her arms seemed to tremble slightly.

He immediately shut up and gently reassured her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here, everything will be alright."

The little girl nodded, snuggled closer to him, and touched the man's somewhat cold hand: "Do you have someone you suspect?"

If not, he wouldn't have suddenly gotten angry.

Chu Jiang: "Yes."

"That……"

Qin Su wanted to ask something, but before she could utter a sound, the man kissed her, pinned her down, and his cool, rough fingers had already explored her waist.
"Are you still sleeping? If not, you won't be sleeping tonight."

Qin Su was silent for a moment: "Sleep."

"Sigh, are you really going to sleep?"

Judging from his tone, he seemed to regret it.

Qin Su: %￥……&
The little girl finally quieted down, and Chu Jiang reached out and hugged her tightly again.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but when the breathing beside him became steady and long, he opened his eyes. In the darkness, his eyes were as cold as the night stars.

Ah, the people of the South Yue.

The next morning, Chu Jiang carefully got up, preparing to leave quietly.

As soon as she moved, her hem was gently tugged.

The person behind me rubbed their eyes and asked, "Are you leaving?"

He yawned as he spoke, looking extremely sleepy.

Chu Jiang reached out and put her hand under the covers: "You continue to sleep. I need to go and see what happened last night."

After he finished speaking, he got up to put on his clothes.

"Wait a moment,"

Before he could react, the girl had already gotten out of bed, stepped barefoot on the thick carpet, and ran towards the wardrobe.

Her light gauze undergarment seemed to ripple gently on the water, outlining her exquisite and beautiful figure.

Qin Su opened the wardrobe and took out a sachet from a familiar package: "This is for you. I finished embroidering it a long time ago, but I've been..."

As she turned around, she bumped into a strong embrace. The man's strong arms wrapped around her waist, and his other hand took the sachet she offered.

It was double-sided embroidery, a skill the young girl excelled at. The exterior was elegant, while the interior was intricate and gorgeous, with the names of the two girls secretly embroidered in the corner.

A smile, unnoticed even by himself, flashed in Chu Jiang's eyes, but his gaze was drawn to something: "What is this?"

Qin Su's expression remained unchanged: "It's a peace talisman. I feel at ease if you wear it."

As the girl spoke, her eyes sparkled, with a hint of rouge at the corners.

Chu Jiang's breathing became a little heavier: "Yes, I will keep wearing it." He carried the person back to the bed, tucked the blanket in, and finally went out.

Once the others left, the smile on Qin Su's face vanished completely: "I'd better not find out who did this."

After many days of planning, there was finally new progress last night, but it was interrupted at a crucial moment.

Her anger was no less than that of a tyrant.

The system trembled with fear; it had already been thoroughly berated last night.

Waaaaah, this is the first time I've realized how terrifying a psychologist can be when they're being sarcastic and sarcastic. Every word they say is like a knife to the heart, a fatal blow to the cyber artery.

Last night it almost became so depressed that it wanted to die to atone for its sins, sob sob sob, it was so scary, don't offend the host!

It's all its fault; it didn't shield itself from the external environment properly.

If this kind of mishap is discovered during hypnotherapy, the host will actually kill it.

Chu Jiang went to the Siyi Pavilion immediately.

His anger has led to the area being completely surrounded by soldiers since last night, so much so that not even a fly can get out.

The ill-tempered princess of Nanyue was naturally dissatisfied.

She demanded that the government provide evidence; if there was no evidence, what grounds were there to suspect them?
When Chu Jiang arrived, the two sides were facing each other, their expressions menacing, as if they were about to start fighting at any moment.

Upon seeing the "Seventh Prince" appear, the Princess of Nanyue toned down her arrogance slightly, but her tone was still not very friendly.

He launched into a sarcastic and provocative attack on Chu Jiang:
"Seventh Prince, if you ask me, a man doesn't have to be so petty. You can't hold grudges from the past. My Southern Yue has already submitted to the Great Qi. Can't you be a little more magnanimous?"

This statement is tantamount to saying that Chu Jiang is settling a personal score and deliberately targeting the Nan Yue people.

It is precisely because she has a perfect alibi that she dares to be so provocative.

Chu Jiang stared coldly at her, and only spoke after she had finished: "Speak more if you have the strength, but before the truth is found out, no one from Nan Yue is allowed to leave this place. Anyone who disobeys will be killed without exception!"

One sentence was enough to change everyone's expression. The Nan Yue people even wanted to take action, but the soldiers of Da Qi were not to be trifled with either, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.

Nan Yaoxian looked at the man sitting on the horse, her brows furrowing slightly: When did this man become so good-tempered? She had provoked him like this, and he hadn't even gotten angry?

However, just as she was thinking this, she saw the man suddenly raise his hand.

Nan Yueyao's expression changed drastically, and she subconsciously raised her hand to dodge. The Nan Yue guards behind her also rushed forward to protect the princess.

But little did anyone expect that this was just a feint—the man simply raised his hand and touched the bridge of his handsome nose, without doing anything else.

But the mockery and disdain in his eyes were almost overflowing.

Nan Yaoxian was almost furious, wishing she could kill him herself, but she could only glare at him fiercely and dared not make any rash moves.

Chu Jiang knew in his heart that if he hadn't brought Sang Sang out, he would never have let these people go so easily today.

"Walk."

He spurred his horse and led his personal guards away, ignoring the resentment the Southern Yue people felt as they stared at his retreating figure.

"This Gu is called the Wind-Welcoming Gu, named for its ability to grow rapidly in the wind. It is also contagious. Although it looks frightening, as long as you avoid contact with the corpse and burn the corpse immediately, this Gu will no longer be able to harm people."

Yu Feixian told Chu Jiang about the situation.

Although the dead cannot be brought back to life, they can be saved within the first three hours of infection if the poison is removed in time.

The method to cure this curse is also very simple:
Drink two bowls of vinegar first, then eat three bowls of soybean water, and you will be able to vomit out the parasite.

The soldiers who were infected later had already drunk the liquor and kept vomiting until their stomachs were empty. The vomit smelled terrible and looked disgusting.

However, just as Yu Feixian said, they all survived.

"But I don't understand, what is she after with such a simple and easy-to-understand poison?" she said, frowning.
