C6 Poison or Pills

Everything had returned to its starting point. The marriage ceremony was to be held tomorrow, and neither General Xiao nor the Xiao Residence received any punishments. The sound of footsteps slowly faded into the distance. Only Xiao Yufei remained kneeling on the ground. Although Xiao Yufei did not raise her head, she could tell that the crown prince was angry and unwilling from his hurried footsteps.

Xiao Yu Fei knelt there the entire time and waited silently. However, she did not hear the emperor's order for her to leave. Xiao Yufei was slightly anxious. The matter had already been resolved, so why wasn't she letting him leave? The puzzlement in Yu Fei's heart caused her to slowly raise her head. She saw a man dressed in bright yellow clothes staring at her, but it seemed as if she could see something else through her, as if she was thinking about something.

"The emperor is thinking about something. He must have forgotten that I'm still kneeling!" Xiao Yu Fei consoled herself. At this moment, the hall was devoid of any activity. Xiao Yu Fei boldly turned her head and surveyed the surroundings of the hall. Although it was wartime, the hall was magnificent. However, he was the only one kneeling on the floor in the hall.

"Come down and let us have a good look!" Just as Xiao Yu Fei was pondering her thoughts, a warm command was transmitted into her ears. That voice was very calm, but it also gave her an indescribable feeling.

Xiao Yu Fei slowly stood up. Due to kneeling for a long time, her legs had become numb. Xiao Yu Fei wanted to rub it, but she didn't dare to. The inquisitive gaze in the hall stopped on Xiao Yufei. There was a look in her eyes, and it was also clear who she was looking at. It made her feel as if she was looking at a commodity. Yu Fei didn't dare to move, she could only wait quietly!

"This Emperor has long heard that General Xiao's daughter has the guts to outdo men in the battlefield. Seeing her today is indeed unexpected!" As soon as your father Xiao Shiyuan became effective and loyal to my country, I wonder if you would be able to be loyal to the imperial court like your father? " The Emperor on the Dragon Throne stared sharply at Xiao Yufei. The sudden praise left Xiao Yufei at a loss for words. When had she ever had the guts to do so? The man with the courage to do so had left! However, she didn't dare to say such words out loud …

"My daughter and father are loyal to the country of Anqi!" Xiao Yu Fei learned from the TV show and heard their conversation. Although her tone was strong enough, Xiao Yu Fei Fei didn't dare to raise her head as she was afraid that her real thoughts would be exposed from her eyes.

"I believe in General Xiao, and I also believe in you!" Someone come, reward! " The emperor suddenly clapped his hands and called out to one of the palace maids beside him in a low voice.

"Thank you, your majesty, this humble girl doesn't dare to accept your reward!" A smile appeared on her face as well. It turned out that the Emperor hadn't allowed her to rise from the ground for a long time. Instead, he had remained silent for a long time as if he wanted to bestow something upon her.

The king just stared at the rain and smiled, but he didn't say anything. The palace servant quickly brought out what shouldn't be anything special. There was a small tray with only a black pill inside and a cup of water beside it. Xiao Yuxi looked at him in astonishment, thinking that the Emperor's reward was actually a pill. Could it be some pill?! Could she live forever, or could she be beautiful?

"Eat it!" The emperor's short order reached her ears. The smile on her lips made her feel slightly uneasy.

"What is this?" Xiao Yu Fei didn't listen to the orders and forgot her proper etiquette. She pointed at the pill and asked intuitively.

This time, Xiao Yufei did not receive a reply, but the court lady had already arrived beside her. Before Xiao Yuxi could react, the court lady went up to her acupuncture points and pried open her tightly-shut lips. With a single movement, the pill entered her throat without any obstructions. Only after seeing the pill fall into Xiao Yufei's mouth did the palace maid unlock her acupoints.

"What did you give me to eat?"

Xiao Yufei felt a wave of nausea and vomited a few times. However, she did not spit out any water.

"The pill you ate earlier was a poison as well. It could help you increase your cultivation, but it would also cause periodic outbreaks. I will give you a heavy responsibility. After you marry into the Royal Mansion, you must think of a way to steal his weapon token! As long as we have the military emblem, our Da Qi Kingdom will be ashamed! Of course, we will first give you the antidote for half a year. In this half a year, you must think of a way to get closer to Ye Cangyu to complete the mission, and we will send someone to contact you! " The emperor stared at Xiao Yufei as he spoke cautiously, as if it was the greatest favor he could give to Xiao Yufei to consume the medicine. Actually, the method of stealing the military talisman had long been carried out. However, none of the people sent out had succeeded in returning. Xiao Yu's arrival today gave the old Emperor hope.

It was a poison as well as a medicinal pill! Xiao Yu Fei felt as though her head was about to explode! How could the old emperor be like this? He didn't need any skill, nor did he need any weapon talisman! Xiao-yu Fei put her hand in her mouth and tried to spit out the pill as she had in some movies, even though she knew it was unhygienic if her hand wasn't washed. However, the result of doing so was nothing more than spitting out some acid.

"This medicine melts as soon as it enters my mouth. I can't spit it out anymore!" The old emperor's actions of staring at Xiao Yufei were laughable.

"Your majesty, how can I hand over such an important matter like stealing military talismans? I won't do it, nor can I do it. Please retract your decree!" Xiao Yu Fei wanted to jump up and curse, but she held herself back. Right now, her life was in his hands! Now, Xiao Yu Fei wanted to try another method to have the Emperor retract his order.

If there is no antidote, your entire body will be in pain, first your muscles, then your bone marrow, and finally your internal organs. Finally, you will be tortured to death! Of course, we believe that you won't walk this road of no return, as your father is still waiting for you. If everything succeeds, we will arrange for you to leave Ye Cang Yu's house, and we won't treat you unfairly! " As the emperor slowly spoke, he seemed to place all of his treasures on Xiao Yufei!

Xiao Yu Fei's complexion turned paler and paler with the Emperor's words. She never thought that the ancient people were so venomous. Before the poison's effects had even flared up, Xiao Yu Fei had already felt the pain! If he couldn't complete the mission, he might lose his life. However, there was still the matter of the Xiao Residence and his ancient father!

"If this humble daughter can do it, will the emperor keep his word and let the Xiao-family off?!" Xiao Yu Fei was silent for a long time. She had no choice but to leave. She did not expect that this trip to the palace would result in a calamity. However, Xiao Yu Fei had no other choice.

"We are the sons of heaven, our words are as good as gold!" In addition, we also warn you not to think too much about finding the antidote. This pill is made from ninety-nine, eighty-one different ingredients and you have no antidote. You must complete this mission or else you will lose more than just your life! " The Emperor once again spoke coldly.

"This humble woman wants a letter of edict in order to trust in Your Majesty!" As for the emperor in front of her, she felt that he was even more untrustworthy. It was true that the words of 'companion Jun Ruohu' and 'companion Hu' were all true, but in less than two hours, he had already seen through the unpredictable nature of the other party.

The emperor stared in disbelief at the woman of His Highness. This was the first woman who dared to bargain with the emperor, but her words were firm. The expression on her small face seemed to indicate that she would never have done it without an imperial decree. The emperor hesitated for a moment before drawing up an imperial edict, sealing it and handing it to Xiao Yufei.

However, Xiao Yufei did not want to let the matter rest. She opened the imperial edict and read it once through. Fortunately, she could recognize most of the characters in Anqi Country. After confirming the contents, she kept the imperial edict again. In her anger, Xiao Yu Fei was no longer willing to bow. She stood up and left the hall, but she heard a deep sigh coming from behind her.

At this moment, it was already noon. The warm sun shone on the bodies of the people, giving the feeling of having survived a calamity to Xiao Yufei. Although it was just the inside and outside of the hall, it was the feeling of two completely different worlds.
