Reborn Empress: The World Originally Belonged to Her

General Su shook his head, looking helpless.

Meanwhile, in Lin'an City, Shangguan Mufeng was in a state of great anxiety because more and more of the local people were falling ill with ailments that Shangguan Mufeng had never heard of before.

Shangguan Mufeng is currently in a very troubled state.

Shangguan Mufeng kept thinking that if he sent a message to Qin Yu at this time, it would probably take ten days to half a month to receive a reply, or even longer...

"I never imagined that I would face such a thorny issue one day. It's giving me a real headache. What should I do next?"

Unexpectedly, at this moment, one of the women, dressed in flamboyant attire, walked directly up to Shangguan Mufeng. This woman's clothing made her look like she was from a foreign land, which surprised Shangguan Mufeng. He had no idea why this woman had come here.

"If Lord Shangguan says that I am able to help you, I wonder if you would be willing to grant me two requests?"

Shangguan Mufeng was a little surprised. He never expected that this woman could help him. More importantly, how did this woman know his name?

"How do you know my name? I hope you can tell me the truth. If you do not, don't blame me for being impolite. After all, my patience is limited. Don't think that just because you are a girl, I can't do anything to you."

"Why is Lord Shangguan so angry? Since Lord Shangguan wants to know, then I am naturally willing to tell you everything. Lord Shangguan, do you still remember..."

Shangguan Mufeng felt that this person was clearly making trouble for him.

Shangguan Mufeng's eyes were now terrifyingly cold.

If looks could kill, this girl would probably be dead countless times over.

"Actually, I can also be considered a wanderer here."

Afterwards, the girl told Shangguan Mufeng the whole story, and Shangguan Mufeng immediately understood what had happened.

At first, there was some confusion, but at least by this point everyone knew. Shangguan Mufeng was naturally a little shocked at this moment, never expecting things to turn out this way.

"So you mean you want to come back to the capital with me?"

Shangguan Mufeng truly never expected that the woman in front of him would actually be a princess, and more importantly, a princess of a so-called foreign country.

Whether the woman was telling the truth or not was unknown, but Shangguan Mufeng was willing to take the gamble.

Afterwards, Shangguan Mufeng brought the woman to see what was going on. The common people concluded that they had all eaten poisonous food, which was why they were so weak.

The woman checked all the food again and finally found the source. Shangguan Mufeng went to find the person who arranged the food, but the person looked innocent.

"Lord Shangguan, I really don't know what happened. We did exactly as you said at that moment. As for why there was poison in the food, none of us really know."

They all knelt down with a thud and kept kowtowing, indicating that they truly knew nothing about it.

Shangguan Mufeng touched his chin and suddenly remembered that there was another group of people in the shadows, and it was possible that this was the same group.

The woman arranged some medicine here, and to everyone's surprise, after these people drank the medicine, they all woke up, and the toxins in their bodies were completely cleared.

The woman then took out some silver needles and handed them to Shangguan Mufeng. "These silver needles can be used to test whether something is poisonous. If you plan to eat anything here in the future, you might as well test it to see if it's poisonous."

The woman had just inserted the silver needle into Shangguan Mufeng's bowl, only to find it was poisoned.

More importantly, the toxin is extremely potent, because once the silver needle is inserted, it turns black at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"I have worked diligently for so long, yet one day I never imagined that they would all be targeting me. It is truly unbelievable. I seem to have done nothing wrong, yet I have become..."

Shangguan Mufeng naturally felt that the enemy he had created was indeed feasible.

He was well aware of all this; the common people were suffering because of him, and now he simply wanted to see what was happening to them...

The woman genuinely felt that directly poisoning the people here was a despicable and shameless act.

These ordinary people are clearly innocent; they should be the ones to retaliate against Shangguan Mufeng.

"You all take good care of the common people from now on, while I conduct a thorough inspection of the surrounding area."

In fact, Shangguan Mufeng also wanted to know why they would want to disturb ordinary people.

Because these people were all physically weak and didn't have any weapons.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, this person told Shangguan Mufeng.

"There's no problem, but you should still be careful at this time."

After that, Shangguan Mufeng went to patrol the surrounding area.

But then he saw someone secretly watching him.

Shangguan Mufeng pretended that he knew nothing and continued walking forward.

Suddenly they sensed a flash of swords and immediately ducked.

But they were just a little short, and the person behind them launched a sneak attack.

Fortunately, he dodged quickly.

In an instant, two flashes of sword light and shadow attacked each other.

I thought it was something amazing, but now it seems it's nothing special.

There was a hint of coldness in his eyes.

"Damn it, I didn't expect to be able to avoid this person."

They were all naturally shocked at this moment, never expecting to be evaded by this person.

They planned to attack this person here again.

However, they discovered that the person had somehow gotten behind them.

Several of their brothers had been knocked to the ground, and some had already passed out.
