Crossing the World: This Prince is a Little Sweet
Chapter 316 Lure the snake out of its hole
The Snow Scale Beast was immediately knocked more than ten meters away. It rolled several times and then crawled up from the ground. It roared angrily at Yi Yueminghai, and then rushed over with all its strength.
At this moment, Yi Yueminghai had not forgotten how to trick his little grandson. He spread his feet and slowly led the Snow Kirin Beast towards Nangong Yu.
"My dear grandson, this beast has gone mad, hurry up and save your grandpa."
When Yi Yueminghai was leading the Snow Kirin beast close to Nangong Yu, he quickened his pace and disappeared, leaving behind only Nangong Yu who was wolfing down a roasted rabbit and a wild beast that had gone mad to the extreme.
"Damn you old man, you even deprive me of my meal time. When I get home, I'll burn off your beard and roast all those koi fish in your pond."
Nangong Yu started running again with the half-eaten roasted rabbit in his hand. Yi Yueminghai, who had just disappeared, was now standing on a distant hilltop, looking at the red figure running as hard as he could and laughing.
Because Chu Xi had eaten the poisoned cakes that Huang Xiaoya had planted, and considering the current situation in the court, Chu Xi guessed that they must have been coveting the throne for a long time, so she planned to take advantage of the situation and lure this big poisonous snake out of its hole.
She told her mother Huang Junwan and Empress Huang Lan about her plan.
"Xi'er, did Huang Xiaoya really poison you?" Huang Junwan looked at Chu Xi with concern.
"Yes, it's a particularly powerful poison. When the disease occurs, ordinary doctors can't tell it's poisoning at all." Chu Xi nodded affirmatively.
"You even swallowed the poison? Are you crazy?"
Huang Junwan was instantly so angry that she blamed him.
"Mother, I'm fine. That little bit of poison can't hurt me."
Seeing Huang Junwan so angry, Chu Xi immediately comforted her.
"How can it be okay? You said it was highly poisonous. Hurry... go and ask the imperial physician to come..." Huang Junwan shouted to Shaoyao behind Chu Xi.
"Mom, I'm really fine. Look at me, I'm alive and kicking. I didn't really eat it..."
Chu Xi pulled her mother and explained with a smile. Huang Lan, who was sitting next to her, also said, "Wan'er, don't worry. Xi'er is a sensible person."
"You really didn't eat it?"
Huang Junwan looked at Chu Xi with suspicion, and it was obvious that she didn't quite believe what Chu Xi said.
“No…” Chu Xi nodded guiltily, not daring to look at Huang Junwan, because she really did eat the pastry, but the poison was eaten by the Fire Cloud Bracelet.
Huang Lan couldn't help but laugh as she watched the intimate interaction between the two. She hadn't felt such a heartwarming scene for a long time.
So long ago that she couldn't even remember when it was?
"Alas... Don't do such dangerous things next time."
Huang Junwan glared at Chu Xi with a stern face.
"Don't worry, mother. I know what to do."
Chu Xi patted Huang Junwan's hand and swore solemnly, then looked at Huang Lan: "Grandmother, Aunt Xiaoya must have been instructed to poison me so blatantly, so we..."
Chu Xi paused and did not continue speaking, because Prince Jing was the Royal Grandmother's biological sister, and no one wanted to see a situation where siblings were killing each other.
"Grandson, don't worry about grandma, just do as you wish."
Huang Lan knew that Chu Xi was taking her feelings into consideration, but even if she really cared about this sisterhood, her sister might not cherish it. She had been making small moves over the years and had never concealed her ambitions in front of him.
Now that Wan'er has returned with the eldest grandson, it must have had a great impact on her. After all, who would be willing to give up the throne that is within reach for nothing? But she didn't expect that she would be so impatient that she actually ordered someone to poison her secretly.
If my grandson didn't find out and really ate it, would I have to face the pain of sending off the young once again?
What a cruel heart.
"Grandma..."
Chu Xi looked at Huang Lan, whose expression was gloomy, and cried out in pain.
"Nothing." Huang Lan waved his hand, then supported his head and sighed softly.
The next day, the news that His Royal Highness Chang Sun had caught a cold spread throughout the dynasty, and some were happy while others were sad.
The happiest one among them was Prince Jing, because this was exactly the effect she wanted. It was said that all the imperial doctors examined her that day and all concluded that she had caught a cold and needed to stay in bed.
"Mother, I heard that His Royal Highness Chang Sun is ill. Is this news true or false?"
Huang Xiaoya walked into the hall and bowed to Huang Jingying who was sitting high up.
"The news from the palace should not be false." Huang Jing said calmly.
"Is that the poison taking effect?"
Huang Xiaoya was surprised. She had never thought that this matter would go so smoothly. It seemed that His Royal Highness Changsun did not have much ability.
"Hmm..." Huang Jing nodded affirmatively.
"But... in this way... will people find out that His Royal Highness Chang Sun has been poisoned?"
The emperor's brother Ya hesitated for a while, then nervously expressed his thoughts.
"Don't worry, Ya'er. This poison is not an ordinary poison. It is specially made in secret. The quack doctors in the palace can't even tell that it is a poison."
Huang Lan said this and laughed.
"Is this medicine really that powerful?"
"Hehehe... that's for sure. This is the poison made by the Palace Master of Yanyue Palace himself. Do you think you are powerful?"
"The Palace Master of Yanyue Palace? Could it be that woman in red from yesterday?"
Huang Xiaoya was shocked. Everyone in the world knew the name of the Palace Master of Yanyue Palace. She was notoriously treacherous and cunning, and even dared to harm her own people. The poison she developed was the best in the world, and no one could detoxify it. Even the Sikong family, which had been passed down for a hundred years, was no match for her.
"Yes, that witch."
Huang Jing's beautiful willow-shaped eyebrows slightly raised, with a look of pride in her eyes.
"Your Highness, General Ye requests to see you..." A maid came in and spoke respectfully to Huang Jing.
"Let her in"
"Since mother has something important to do, I will take my leave now."
Huang Xiaoya knew how to act according to circumstances and never tried to get close to others intentionally. That was why Huang Jing liked her so much and wanted to train her as the next successor.
At this time, a sturdy and dark-skinned woman walked into the hall and immediately bowed to Huang Jing: "Your Highness, I, Ye Qian, greet you..."
"General Ye, you are so polite. Please take a seat."
Huang Jing smiled and waved her hand, then pointed to a stool beside her and motioned Ye Qian to sit down.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I wonder why Your Majesty called me here?"
Ye Qian sat down on the stool, and his originally sharp eyes now looked up at Huang Jing with a hint of smile.
"It's nothing, I just want to catch up with General Ye..."
Huang Jing and Ye Qian had been trained in the same military camp. When Ye Qian was injured in the battle, it was Huang Jing who found someone to heal her. If it weren't for Huang Jing's advice over the years, Ye Qian probably wouldn't have climbed to the position of general. Of course, she also worked very hard.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I am flattered." Ye Qian's originally tense face now broke into a smile.
"Haha... I am still scaring a great general like you?"
"That's not the case, it's just that Your Majesty has suddenly been so nice to me, I'm frightened." Ye Qian pretended to be frightened.
