Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

"Why can't it be you?"

Chu Ning rode his horse outside the mansion and said coldly, "Gan Long's death will only deepen the grievances between Qin and Chu.

And this is good for your Wei Kingdom, isn't it, Lord Yang Xiu!"

As these words fell, Yang Xiu's face in the house turned extremely pale.

He was so self-righteous that he thought his plan was flawless, but he didn't expect that Chu Ning had already seen through his identity.

Now that things have come to this, he has nothing to hide.

Reaching out and opening the door, Yang Xiu appeared in front of Chu Ning with a sword in hand.

"Gan Long is just a bait, right?" Yang Xiu stared at Chu Ning and asked.

Chu Ning said calmly, "Before I tell you the answer, shouldn't you also tell me how you poisoned me?"

"What kind of poison? I don't know!"

Yang Xiu sneered, "I just saw Gan Long and his men hurried back, so I wanted to ambush and kill him on the way to deepen the conflict between your Chu and Qin."

flatly denied.

Really cunning.

Chu Ning narrowed his eyes, and a hint of coldness flashed across his face: "You don't want to admit that you poisoned me, but you are worried that I will wipe out your Wei Kingdom's influence in my dynasty, right?

But unfortunately I have to tell you that before I came here, I had already ordered Guan Yu to take the soldiers of the city defense camp to capture people.

Even if you don't admit it, as long as those people admit it, you can't get away with it.

Now that things have come to this, why are you struggling? Why don't you tell me the truth? Maybe I can give you a quick death."

Yang Xiu fell silent.

He knew very well that he would most likely not be able to get over this hurdle today.

But if Chu Ning got what he wanted, he would feel unwilling.

While Chu Ning was deep in thought, Jia Yu suddenly stood up from behind him and said with a smile: "Lord Yang, I never thought that you and I would meet under such circumstances."

"you……"

Yang Xiu looked as if he had seen a ghost: "Jia Yu, you...you are not dead?"

When Jia Yu disappeared in the capital of the Han Dynasty, the Wei Kingdom announced that he was secretly killed by Chu Ning. Unexpectedly, he is here now.

Jia Yu smiled slightly and said, "Master Yang, don't be surprised. I am the prince's man now, and we are acquainted. Why don't we open our hearts and make a deal?

Things have come to this, there is no point in struggling any further, it is better for everyone to get what they want.

Although I am not talented, I still have some face in front of the prince. If you tell the truth, His Royal Highness can give you a quick death."

The appearance of Jia Yu completely confused Yang Xiu. He never expected that Jia Yu was not dead.

In this case, everything that happened to Chu Ning might have been arranged by Jia Yu.

Thinking of Jia Yu's methods, Yang Xiu's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

Taking a deep breath and trying to calm down, Yang Xiu stared at Jia Yu and said, "You old man, I never thought you would join Chu Ning!

This time, I think it was you who trapped me here, right?"

Jia Yu shook his head and explained with a chuckle, "Lord Yang guessed wrong. All this was arranged by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Master Yang, give up your meaningless struggle. Your fate is already determined and cannot be changed. It is better to tell the truth."

Yang Xiu's eyes turned cold, and he turned to look at Chu Ning: "Okay, I can tell you how to poison you, but you must also tell me how you suspected me!"

Chu Ning looked indifferent and nodded slightly to show his agreement.

After receiving the response, Yang Xiu said with a smug look on his face: "The last time you went to Qin, I thought you would die there, so I attacked Shen Wanying to avenge His Highness Cao Zhi.

I didn't expect that you not only didn't die, but came back alive. For this, I can only point the finger at you first.

Upon learning that Gan Long had left the city overnight, I felt that if I killed him, I could stir up hatred between the Chu and Qin states.

But I didn't expect you to be so cunning that you deliberately let Gan Long out of the city to lure me into taking action.

I thought I did it perfectly, how did you end up suspecting me?"

After hearing what this person said, Chu Ning shook his head repeatedly.

"You are very dishonest!"

Chu Ning's expression was cold: "If you just want to avenge Cao Zhi, you don't have to do anything to Wanying. I don't believe you can do such a thing that is beneath your dignity.

Furthermore, I was about to marry Princess Changping at that time, and you must have other intentions for taking action at this time.

More importantly, if you wanted revenge, why did you use a slow-acting poison instead of a strong one?"

Shen Wanying posed no threat to Yang Xiu at all, and there was not enough reason to say that poisoning her was revenge for Cao Zhi.

What's more, this poison is a chronic poison. If you want to kill someone, just use a more powerful poison.

Chronic poisoning obviously has other purposes.

Yang Xiu was speechless. He pondered for a moment, then slowly raised his head and looked at Chu Ning:

"You are very smart, but I will never tell you this!"

"Aren't you smart? Then guess it yourself."

Jia Yu, the middleman, was shocked by Yang Xiu's inconsistent attitude and said, "Yang Xiu, don't you even have the most basic trust as a human being?"

Unexpectedly, Yang Xiu suddenly burst into laughter: "Hahahaha, do you really think I don't know? In fact, you didn't even suspect me from the beginning!"

"You are just trying to deceive me. If you knew it was me, you would have shown up after I killed Gan Long instead of waiting until now."

I have to say that Yang Xiu was indeed smart. He figured out the key in just the blink of an eye.

Chu Ning raised his eyebrows and said, "Yes, I did not doubt you at the beginning, so I used Gan Long to lure you into taking action.

Now that you are in my control, you better surrender and hand over the antidote obediently."

Now that things have come to this, he is too lazy to talk nonsense.

But Yang Xiu smiled strangely: "Antidote? What antidote? I don't have any antidote at all, hahahaha!

Chu Ning, no matter how powerful you are, you still can't save the person you love the most.

Thinking of Shen Wanying dying in front of you, you must hate me very much, hahahaha!"

Such a crazy look made Zhao Yu furious: "How dare you speak to His Highness like that!"

Yang Xiu laughed loudly: "The Crown Princess of Chu is about to die, and all of you are responsible!

Chu Ning, you are regretting killing His Highness Cao Zhi now, right? If you hadn't killed His Highness Cao Zhi, Shen Wanying wouldn't be in this situation today!"

After he finished speaking, the man's eyes turned cold, his body spun around, and he rushed towards Chu Ning with his sword.

Zhao Yu's face darkened and he shouted angrily: "Back off!"

He swept the spear in his hand, trying to force it back.

But Yang Xiu did not dodge or evade, but instead ran headlong into the spear, allowing the tip of the spear to pierce his body.

Blood trickled down from the wound!

Zhao Yu was shocked and tried to draw his spear, but Yang Xiu held on to the spear tightly with both hands.

"Master Yuan Tian, your calculations are so accurate!"

Yang Xiu laughed loudly: "However, even if I die, I will not let you get the antidote. Let Shen Wanying be buried with me, hahahaha!"

Amid laughter, the hands loosened and the body fell to the ground.
