Why mess with her? Even the emperor has to pamper her.

Chapter 168 A big loss for a small gain

Xie Xuan was naturally happy.

He actually didn't know that Yun Chuwei had poisoned the Li father and son.

This means that Weiwei, like him, does not trust the Li father and son.

Obviously, she also didn't believe Li Yuanmu.

This is definitely good news for him.

-

After watching Yun Chuwei get on the carriage, Li Ping and the others looked at each other.

After a moment, Zhang Gong laughed.

"General, you just said so much, are you trying to make Miss Yun feel grateful to the Second Young Master?"

Li Ping's mouth twitched.

That's exactly what he thought.

Let Yun Chuwei know that if it weren’t for Li Yuanmu, she would have been forced to stay.

Isn't this just to make Yun Chuwei grateful to Li Yuanmu?

Zhang Gong continued, "In fact, you have achieved half of your goal. There are still people who are grateful to the Second Young Master. However, that person is me. If it weren't for the Second Young Master, I would have been poisoned to death by Miss Yun!"

If it weren't for the Second Young Master, Li Ping might really choose to force Yun Chuwei to stay, and then they would all be poisoned to death by Yun Chuwei.

Li Ping: …

Li Yuanyi: …

Li Yuanmu: …

He also has to be grateful to himself? Otherwise, Yun Chuwei would also be poisoned to death?

Perhaps because Yun Chuwei emphasized that it was a matter of life and death, Li Ping and others decided to follow the team out of the city.

After leaving the city, Yun Chuwei asked Yan Wei to park the carriage on the side of the road.

She opened the curtain, pointed to a tree beside the road, and said to Li Ping: "General Li, have someone search the tree hole carefully. There is the antidote I put in there in advance."

Li Ping could only signal his deputy general to go and look for it.

The deputy general searched the tree hole and indeed found a small bottle.

Li Ping looked at the small medicine bottle in the deputy general's hand and was speechless for a moment.

If they still had doubts before and thought that Yun Chuwei was deceiving them, now they are sure that Yun Chuwei did not lie to them.

They were really poisoned by Yun Chuwei without knowing it.

Yan Wei was also a little surprised. He didn't know when his eldest lady left the antidote here.

However, they did pass by here when they entered the city.

With the young lady's skills, it is not difficult to throw the medicine bottle into the tree hole.

Yun Chuwei waved at the deputy general: "Bring it here, I'll check it!"

The deputy general glanced at Li Ping, and after getting Li Ping's consent, he handed the small medicine bottle to Yun Chuwei.

Yun Chuwei opened the medicine bottle and smelled it, then closed it and returned the bottle to the deputy general: "No problem!"

The deputy general could only give one bottle to Li Ping.

When Li Ping saw the small bottle of antidote, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

Yun Chuwei's smile was as beautiful as a flower, and her voice was as gentle as the spring breeze.

"Everyone, please remember to eat it. The poison will not make you look deadly! I don't recommend just leaving it alone!" Yun Chuwei said.

Li Ping: …

Zhang Gong: ...

The Li brothers: ...

Could it be that just because the death looks good, they can just leave it alone?

Li Ping poured out a pill and swallowed it directly.

Zhang Gong and the Li brothers also took the antidote soon.

Yun Chuwei still had a smile on her face: "Keep going!"

After saying that, she lowered the car curtain.

The team moved on.

Li Ping looked at his youngest son riding on a horse, sighed and said, "You... just take care of yourself! Some things don't need to be forced."

He also realized that his son would definitely not be able to defeat Miss Yun.

Li Yuanmu said: "Father, don't worry about me, I know what to do!"

He followed Yun Chuwei to Beijing just because he wanted to get closer to Yun Chuwei.

For the rest, let nature take its course.

After Li Yuanmu finished speaking, he rode away and soon caught up with the main force.

Li Ping watched the team leave and suddenly found that there was another team wearing ghost masks and left with the team.

Li Ping was slightly startled: "That ghost-faced team..."

Zhang Gong sighed: "I'm afraid it's the young lady's man."

Li Ping realized something and looked at Zhang Gong: "Then... the young man wearing the Yama mask..."

"I'm afraid this person was arranged by Miss Yun in advance." Zhang Gong said seriously, "How could someone like Miss Yun trust someone so easily?"

Li Ping agreed with this deeply and was once again glad that he did not choose to force Yun Chuwei to stay.

After Xie Sheng disappeared, Xie Xin immediately organized people to look for Xie Sheng.

However, after searching for two or three days, no one was found.

After the mountain stabilized, she sent people to dig a road and look for Xie Sheng.

It was not until the road was dug through that she found Xie Sheng in a cave.

Xie Sheng was seriously injured and was dying when he was found.

Fortunately, Jiang Wanqiu was there and saved Xie Sheng's life.

Jizhou lacked good medicine. After saving Xie Sheng, Xie Xin quickly arranged everything in Jizhou City and personally escorted Xie Sheng back to Beijing.

The crown prince was seriously injured, Yun Chuwei and the rebels fled to Goryeo, which were no small matters.

As soon as Xie Xuan and others returned to the capital, they were thrown into the imperial prison.

Even Huo Qingjue, a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, was not spared.

However, Emperor Tianqi did not order the case to be tried immediately.

Therefore, Xie Xin and others were merely locked up and did not even suffer any superficial injuries.

Queen Wang could no longer sit still.

She wanted to take advantage of this incident to snatch Wang Jiajun from Xie Xin.

The Wang family army had a natural connection with her and the prince, and logically they would support the prince unconditionally.

After all, that was the army her father and brother had built.

After her father and brother passed away, whether the younger generation of the royal family or the students of her father and brother took over the army, they should support her and the prince.

But the emperor actually arranged for Xie Xin to study with his father and brother in advance, and after his father and brother passed away, he arranged for Xie Xin to take over the army.

It is true that Xie Xin is also a member of the Wang family, but it was Xie Xin's mother who made the mistake, and it was she who personally gave the poisoned wine.

Xie Xin has always hated her and it is impossible for him to support her and the prince.

She had long wanted to snatch Wang Jiajun from Xie Xin, so she naturally couldn't let go of this opportunity.

So, she and the ministers of the prince's faction knelt in the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, this time the crown prince was seriously injured, the rebels escaped, Yun Chuwei committed treason, and the fifth princess is responsible. Please punish the fifth princess and give justice to the crown prince!" said Queen Wang.

Others chimed in and expressed their agreement.

Emperor Tianqi looked unhappy.

He said in a cold voice: "The matter of the rebels has not been concluded yet. I have sent people to find Yun Chuwei. Let's talk about it after we find him! As for the prince... it is inevitable to get injured during marching and fighting. As long as the prince's life is not in danger, there is no reason to punish the commander-in-chief for it."

"But, Your Majesty..."

Queen Wang wanted to say something but was interrupted by Emperor Tianqi.

"The Queen's top priority should be to ensure that the Crown Prince's life is safe. Don't let your mind wander to other things. You may lose the big picture for the small details! You will regret it later!" Emperor Tianqi looked at the Queen with eyes as cold as frost.
