The fairy in the painting has admired Sun Daotong for a long time and believed in his character. When it came to refining, he took out the medicinal materials without any precautions.
Lao Sun is a medical master who is admired and worshiped by the world. He has to pay attention to his reputation. Besides, it is difficult to take him away from the heavily guarded Chu Palace. He just casually denied its role and left.
And the biggest gain from this trip was knowing that this medicinal material was presented by King Huai and was hidden and cultivated in the Zhenguo Bronze Cauldron.
Although there is a specific location, it is still not easy to get it.
The bronze tripod of Zhenguo is enshrined on the rooftop of Yunding. The King of Chu's personal guards are guarding it at all levels. It is too difficult to remove it without anyone noticing.
Jiang Fan decided to take advantage of Poppy. At Yu Qingcheng's request, Xiang Chen took her to the Yunding rooftop and demonstrated his famous power of lifting the tripod.
Amidst the applause full of admiration and admiration from the beauty he admired, he didn't even notice that the medicinal material had changed in flavor under the poppy's inadvertent caress...
Although the young poppy didn't know that Sun Daotong poisoned Xiang Chen, she was also an extremely smart person and already felt a little weird from many clues. However, she agreed because Jiang Fan made her an offer she couldn't refuse, and gave her an idea to help Xiang Chen bring down the most taboo person of the Chu king and his son at that time - Uncle Wang and King Huai.
Who is King Huai? The younger brother of the King of Chu, he had an army of 200,000, as well as numerous ministers and generals, and had a high reputation both at court and at home. Many of the King of Chu's confidants had secretly advised him, believing that King Huai was so powerful that he would be in trouble sooner or later. I advise the King of Chu not to raise tigers to cause trouble.
To be honest, the King of Chu also had deep concerns about him. But on the one hand, King Huai was too powerful, and King Chu was not sure. On the other hand, they are brothers after all. King Huai has made great achievements, and he has never expressed any intention of seeking to usurp the throne. It cannot be justified.
In fact, Poppy also felt that the possibility of King Huai's rebellion was not very high, but she was still young at the time and was deceived by Jiang Fan.
Jiang Fan told her, who in a normal sense would support his own army, support himself to death, and take over the Jianghu sect? Moreover, what particularly concerned Poppy was that Jiang Fan told him, do you want your king to have a unified country, or do you want other tigers sleeping soundly beside his bed?
At that time, after meeting Xiang Chen, Poppy had already developed huge ambitions and wanted to help him achieve supreme hegemony. These remarks directly penetrated her heart. In addition, at that time, the Yu family had hidden her intention to curry favor with King Huai. For the sake of her own happiness, Meiren Yu agreed without too much hesitation.
It's not without reason that Jiang Fan wants to marry King Huai. First, this King Huai is indeed a guy with sores on his head and pus on his feet. Due to his high position and power, this guy is like a famous bully in southern Xinjiang. He imposes excessive taxes and expropriations, causing the people in the fiefdom to suffer unspeakably. He also likes to plunder wealth everywhere. Villagers, sects, and wealthy merchants will end up dead if they don't obey. The fate of the corpse. As for those who flattered others, he would not refuse them, and he especially liked to recruit them. As a result, many despised evil sects in southern Xinjiang turned to him, relying on his power to cause great harm.
The old guy and Jiang Fan were traveling in southern Xinjiang. They had seen this man and his subordinates do evil things too much, and they couldn't stand it. If Jiang Fan's condition hadn't been serious, the old guy would have taken action to deal with him long ago. Since there was this opportunity, the two People are happy to attack him.
Secondly, and most importantly, King Huai could hold another main medicinal ingredient in his hands.
Originally, according to the old guy's wish, the medicinal materials could be obtained through exchange or heavy purchase, but Jiang Fan was really disgusted with this person, so the whole plan turned sour.
Originally, after meeting the Immortal in the Painting, Jiang Fan planned to ask the old guy to come forward in the name of Sun Daotong and obtain the medicinal materials from the King of Chu through the Immortal in the Painting. However, there were two dissatisfactions with this.
The first one was to implicate the unrelated painting fairy.
The second one was that he could not carry out his plan to overthrow King Huai.
Therefore, when the plan was halfway through, Jiang Fan upgraded his thinking. Not only did he want to get the medicine, he also wanted to take the opportunity to bring down a cancer scourge in southern Xinjiang.
The key to this matter is that the King of Chu must make up his mind to deal with the brothers.
Later, under the arrangement of Jiang Fan, the old guy met the King of Chu again in the name of Sun Daotong, saying that after observing it that day, he felt that the medicine was inappropriate and seemed to be poisonous.
Because of Sun Daotong's reputation, the King of Chu did not doubt that he was there, so he ordered people to get medicine, take a piece of it and feed it to the palace pets. After a while, he was poisoned and died.
King Chu was shocked and furious, and quickly thought of the origin of this medicine. Obviously, King Huai couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to murder himself. But only Jiang Fan and the old guy knew that the poison was planted by Poppy herself when Xiang Chen was trying to be a hero that day.
But after all, King Huai respected his own troops. Even though King Chu was furious and had some doubts, he hesitated again and again and could not make up his mind. He also suppressed the matter secretly, without even informing Xiang Chen.
Jiang Fan was not in a hurry. After all, the brothers of the King of Chu were brothers, and it would not be easy to make them fall apart. As a result, the next plan was quickly put on the table.
According to Jiang Fan's instructions, Yu Meiren secretly informed Xiang Chen about Chu King's poison test through the mouth of her father, who was a high-ranking official in the court. The furious Xiang Chen almost jumped on his horse and led his troops to kill his uncle on the spot.
However, Poppy appeared at the right time, and she told Xiang Chen that she would give him ten thousand yuan. Under her arrangement, Xiang Chen finally restrained his temper and acted according to his plan.
Soon, the Yu family actually presented the jewel in their eyes, the beautiful poppy, to King Huai.
King Huai, who didn't understand the reason, was naturally overjoyed. In addition to Yu Qingcheng's stunning beauty, the power of the Yu family was also very important. He, who had already grown beyond control at the time, immediately regarded this as the Yu family's surrender to him.
As a result, the two parties hit it off and chose a date to get married. The news of King Huai's acceptance of the concubine quickly spread throughout the Chu State, and Xiang Chen invited his father to have a wedding banquet.
On that day, thousands of people from the Yu family were full of joy and rushed to Prince Huai's Mansion carrying the poppy's sedan chair and numerous dowries.
King Huai also opened the door to welcome him, and even invited guests to show off the matter. Of course, he also showed off his strength at the same time. There was no doubt that Xiang Chen, the nephew, came to congratulate him. After all, he only brought 800 soldiers, so how could he come to cause trouble.
That day, Prince Huai's Mansion was full of joy and bustle, and all the guests and servants were very drunk.
But as a result, on the night of the bridal chamber, the poppy carried the old man's poison and stunned King Huai.
After Xiang Chen received the signal that the candle light was extinguished, he thundered.
At the same time, the Yu family, who were persuaded by Poppy to turn to Xiang Chen, also took out their knives.
Three thousand pro-army troops who had been secretly arranged by Xiang Chen to enter King Huai's fief before the poppy's wedding also began to attack the palace from outside.
With King Huai as a hostage and no defense at all, the palace fell almost instantly.
After that, Xiang Chen led his own army and the Yu family's army to guard the palace. When the King of Chu got the news, he rushed over with his army, but the matter was settled. Due to such careful arrangements and thunderous actions, the King of Chu at this moment was completely unable to explain that this was not his original intention. Even if he explained it, no one would believe it. The helpless King of Chu had no choice but to make mistakes and completely destroy his brothers and their family. Defined as treason.
