After conquering seven male favorites, the vicious heroine wants to run away

Chapter 233 Past Events and Deep Affection
Inside the council chamber
The men's faces were grim, their gazes swirling as they exchanged glances, their eyes finally settling on the poison witch.

The sorcerer carefully examined the powder in his hand. "The ingredients of this poison come from the northern frontier, but the poison itself is not. These materials grow in the deep mountains of the northern frontier, where poisonous gas permeates the air and no one dares to enter."

Fusheng slowly withdrew the poison, saying, "I only found one of the ingredients in the mountains; I couldn't find the rest."

One of their objectives in taking over the northern border was to find out the source of the poison and who made it. Has the trail gone cold again?
Qinghe tapped lightly on the tea table with his fingertips, seemingly pondering something.

Before even trying, they couldn't contain their impatience, asking, "The clues have gone cold again. When will we find the murderer?"

The direct cause of my mother's murder was that so-called father, and the indirect cause was this strange poison. This poison sealed my mother's internal energy; otherwise, how could she have been unable to defeat him...?

Before I had ever tried it, anger surged in my chest, and my chest heaved violently.

Dan Baiyu slammed his hand on the table, the dull thud echoing loudly in the council chamber.

"The murderer must be found and executed by slow slicing."

They all knew that this matter was inextricably linked to Bei Lin and Dong Chen, but now they couldn't find any evidence to prove who was the person connecting them.

Qinghe's expression remained unchanged as he rubbed his fingertips against the teacup.

"Are there any highly talented drug-making experts in the northern border regions?"

We've waited for over a decade, so there's no rush.

He, however, developed a strong interest in the people involved.

The Poison Witch pondered for a moment, "Yes, but she died twenty years ago. Back then, Liu Niang was the number one person in the Northern Frontier for making poison and raising Gu."

Despite the objections of her elders, she decided to travel beyond the northern border and never returned. By the time news of her arrived, Liu Niang had already died.

The death of Liu Niang became the greatest regret in the Northern Frontier. If she had not been so headstrong, the Northern Frontier would not have been so easily controlled.

Hearing this, he felt as if he had never been enlightened: "Liu Niang was besieged and killed by the martial arts alliance."

I never imagined it was actually true.

The Poison Witch nodded in confusion, "That's true. Does Alliance Leader Wei know what happened back then?"

He didn't know about Liu Niang's situation back then, only that this matter had become a regret for the elders of the clan.

"I know very little about what happened back then."

I have never tried to recount everything I know.

After listening, the group pondered the matter, but after comparing the two, they couldn't find any connection.

Tao Huiyan suddenly spoke up, "Does the Northern Frontier possess any secret techniques for changing one's appearance?"

……

In northern Xinjiang, the weather is constantly rainy and unpredictable, making it impossible to fathom the whims of nature.

Shi Nuanyu and Hua Si'an sat under the eaves in a daze. The drizzling rain made the soil sticky and damp, which dampened their enthusiasm for playing.

"Isn't the princess curious about what they're talking about inside?"

Hua Si'an was genuinely curious; she really didn't care that her husbands were keeping secrets.

She and Pei Sha were soulmates, with no secrets between them, and she couldn't understand the inexplicable trust between them.

Raindrops fell down, and Shi Nuanyu reached out to catch them, the icy coldness seeping into her palm.

"Everyone has secrets in their hearts. If you try to break them down one by one, you will suffocate them. When they want to talk, they will talk."

Besides, she's not stupid; she can figure out a lot of things by analyzing them one by one, and it's all just a matter of grudges.

"Why don't you acknowledge A-Ling as your father?"

From the moment A-Ling arrived in northern Xinjiang, the two of them didn't exchange a single word. They had planned to have them work together, but they both refused.

Hua Si'an smiled knowingly, "Sometimes, a single glance is enough to recognize someone by blood."

Even if she were to ask her brother to have a good cry, she wouldn't be able to.

Shi Nuanyu was taken aback but expressed her understanding, saying, "This is truly an unconventional way of recognizing relatives."

Having grown accustomed to seeing each other complain and express longing, people assume that embracing and weeping is the only way to truly reunite with family.

"By the way, this is for you."

He took out the Poison Witch's Royal Gu and handed it to her, saying, "Taking his life is useless. As long as he can behave himself and manage the Northern Frontier, there's nothing else to worry about."

Hua Si'an received the imperial talisman with mixed feelings. She felt sad for her lover but also happy for him, knowing that he would not have lost his life in vain if he had met a good ruler.

“When I saw that the princess was covered in ice, I asked Pei Sha about it. He said that the reason why the body could grow ice poison inexplicably might be related to the Valley of Divine Physicians. The princess can investigate further.”

The Valley of Divine Healers has been destroyed for many years, and it is already difficult for them to know this. They no longer have the ability to investigate further.

Shi Nuanyu was shocked. Suppressing her astonishment, she solemnly thanked him.

"Thank you."

I originally intended to ask my father and mother about the ice on my body when I got back, but I didn't expect to get a clue here.

Why would a normal person suddenly develop frostbite? It turns out they've been poisoned. "What are your plans after this?"

She didn't think Hua Si'an would stay in the northern border region.

Hua Si'an pondered for a while, "I'll stay in the northern border region for a while, and then travel around to see the beautiful landscape."

Having lived in Longhu Mountain for over a decade, I felt I had to go out and see the world.

Shi Nuanyu smiled with relief, "You're quite carefree," and took out a jade pendant for her, "Take this, you can seek help from any force, but don't lose it."

When she gives the order, some people will recognize the jade pendant, since it belongs to Ah Ling's sister, and she will help her if she can.

Hua Si'an accepted it without hesitation, saying, "Thank you, Princess."

Seeing her brother glaring at her resentfully in the distance, she smiled wryly, "Someone can't wait any longer."

What a silly brother! Fools are often blessed.

Shi Nuanyu understood and watched Hua Si'an leave, then deliberately spoke while resting her chin on her hand.

"If someone doesn't come soon, there won't be any dessert left on the table."

As soon as he finished speaking, a tall body was placed on his back, and he was firmly trapped in her arms.

Hua Lingyan buried her face in the crook of her neck in dissatisfaction, her eyes drooping in disappointment.

"The older sister likes to chat with her younger sister, but doesn't like to chat with A-Ling."

I waited so long to finally have some time alone, but my younger sister took up most of it.

Shi Nuanyu chuckled and teased, "How can you be jealous of your own sister?"

Picking up a piece of pastry and feeding it to Hua Lingyan, her eyes darkened for a moment as she stared at the pastry and nibbled on it, her tongue tracing across her fingertips.

Feeling a surge of heat, Shi Nuanyu was about to pull her hand back when the boy gripped her wrist tightly and whispered pitifully in her ear.

"Sister, Ah Ling misses you."

His sticky gaze was fixed on those red lips that made his heart flutter; the taste there was unforgettable to this day.

He suppressed his desire with each breath and helplessly buried his head in the crook of her neck.

"Your Highness, have pity on A-Ling."

A large hand had somehow restrained her waist, rendering her unable to move.

The boy's pitiful appearance filled Shi Nuanyu with affection, and she raised her hand to stroke his cheek to comfort him.

"Ah Ling, they're all here."

We can't just abandon them...

He kissed her palm, his desire no longer concealed in his eyes.

Hua Lingyan stubbornly picked her up and carried her towards the bedroom. Before Shi Nuanyu could even cry out, the boy had already pinned her down.

He pressed his kisses down on her, seeking comfort in her body.

“Ah Ling belongs to my sister, and always will be.”

The older sister belongs to him.

A daring idea began to spread in his mind, and he could no longer suppress the evil thoughts.

Shi Nuanyu held his head, feeling his hot breath, her own breathing becoming slightly erratic.

"Ah Ling, let's go back to Kyoto, okay..."

Not wanting to hear any more rejections, Hua Lingyan urgently covered those red lips with hers.

The rain stopped sometime later, the warm sun high in the sky gradually set, and the dark night quietly descended.

Shi Nuanyu lay weakly on the bed, patting the restless boy on top of her.

"Ah Ling, that's enough."

His slightly husky voice was captivating.

Hua Lingyan lingered on the collarbone, leaving her own mark, a soft and tender longing.

"Sister, Ah Ling misses you."

He rubbed against her, and tears streamed down his face.

Shi Nuanyu felt a tightness in her heart and couldn't say no. She hugged his head and kissed him first.

"the last time."

A flicker of joy crossed the boy's eyes, followed by an insatiable thirst for more.

"I've come at an inopportune time."

Guess who's coming? They'll devour everyone before the battle begins.
