There were five people in the room, Yu Guming, Xue Hengzhao, Liu Quan, Glass Monkey, and Liu Quan's confidant Fang Rong.
It is impossible for Yu Guming and Xue Hengzhao to drink this medicine, and it is impossible for Liu Quan himself to drink it.
He cursed Xue Hengzhao in his heart for being evil. He kept believing that there was nothing wrong with the medicine, but he insisted on forcing one of them to drink it to prove it.
Moreover, he has to appoint a candidate himself, which is really putting himself on the fire.
But Yu Guming was there to support her, and he couldn't even think about not listening.
After thinking about it, he said with a smile: "We dare not deny Miss Xue's kindness. Let's do this! Among the three of us, the Glass Monkey is the thinnest one, so this medicine is more suitable for him to drink."
The glass monkey's round eyes became even rounder, almost falling off.
Liu Quan obviously wanted to kill him!
But when he met Liu Quan's gaze, his eyes immediately dimmed.
He remembered that he had control over Liu Quan. If he didn't drink now, he would cause trouble for him later.
That was fifty pieces of wood. If he spoke to the eunuch who was executing him, he would not be able to get off the execution bench alive.
And Liu Quan also said that it takes several hours for the medicine to take effect. Maybe he has the antidote there!
Even if there is no antidote, I can still get some benefits from him, at least I can get some pension money for my wife.
Thinking of this, he was heartbroken and reached out to take the medicine bowl: "In this case, it is better for me to accept this blessing!"
The glass monkey raised his head and drank the bowl of medicine.
At this time, Liu Quan gradually felt relieved, and he could then find other excuses as the cause of Glass Monkey's death.
Or he could be sent out of the palace to do some business soon, and a few months later he would be told to die outside.
While he was thinking about it, the glass monkey over there had already put down the bowl and said: "Thank you..."
After saying thank you, he covered his chest with both hands and fell to the ground, twitching all over and spitting out blood.
Seeing his miserable state, Yu Guming stood up with a loud sound, and moved his sword directly against Liu Quan's throat.
The sword, which was as sharp as clay, immediately cut the skin on Liu Quan's neck, and a line of blood was shocking.
"You said it's not poisonous?!" Yu Guming's eyes were about to burst, and he was filled with murderous intent.
Liu Quan's head buzzed and he kept saying: "Your Majesty, please calm down! Your Majesty, please calm down! It's impossible! It can't happen so fast!"
Although Liu Quan has experienced many turmoils in the palace, he has always had the upper hand.
It was the first time that he was so close to losing his head, and a bone-crushing chill arose from the bottom of his heart.
"Eunuch Liu, what do you mean it can't be so fast? In other words, you knew this medicine was poisonous?" Xue Hengzhao's arms were slightly clasped, and there was a hint of color between his brows.
Liu Quan felt that all his blood had been drained.
But his mind was extremely clear.
This bowl of medicine was indeed poisonous, he knew it, and Xue Hengzhao also knew it.
After the glass monkey drank this bowl of poison, it should have taken a few hours for the attack to occur, but he died on the spot.
This can only mean that someone is poisoning the medicine again!
There are only a few people who handle this medicine. It wasn't him, let alone the Glass Monkey.
Then only Xue Hengzhao is left.
Liu Quan raised his eyes and looked at Xue Hengzhao. What a delicate and picturesque face that was!
Soft as spring breeze, clean as morning dew, charming and charming, pure and flawless.
But her methods are truly terrifying.
She poisoned without leaving any trace, and laid out her plans with a smile and a smile.
Even the tragic scene of the glass monkey's poisonous hair, she never avoided or even frowned.
She was clean and generous, and she had already forced them into an alley without even leaving the door.
Xue Heng's photo was taken but Liu Quan already knew that there was nothing he could do to save his life.
Yu Guming would not believe that Xue Hengzhao poisoned him. Telling him himself would only make his death worse.
"Miss Xue, what do you want?" Liu Quan asked with a pale face.
"The glass monkey is dead," Xue Hengzhao said, "it was your medicine that poisoned him. Poisoning in the palace and murdering people is a capital crime."
yes! Every word Xue Hengzhao said was irrefutable.
Even if she didn't poison him, the Glass Monkey would die later, and it would be Liu Quan who killed him.
"Young Master is here, your crime is already confirmed and irrefutable. Even your master can't save you." Xue Heng said softly to Zhao Ying's lips, "Do you know this?"
Liu Quan lowered his head feebly. The Glass Monkey died on the spot, and he could not explain himself.
"Even if the prince kills you now, no one will hold you accountable, don't you think?" Xue Hengzhao asked again.
That's right, there were people and stolen goods. In a moment of righteous anger, Yu Guming stabbed him to death. He deserved his death.
"So, no matter how you look at it, you will die in front of your eyes." Xue Hengzhao said and turned away, "Besides, the lives you are carrying are not just one or two. If I am willing, I can at least hold on to two or three more things about you. .”
In the past, Liu Quan would have thought that Xue Hengzhao was bragging, but now he has seen Xue Hengzhao's methods and knows that she can do it.
"But I will keep you alive."
Liu Quan was very surprised by Xue Hengzhao's words, and he couldn't help but raise his head.
"Why...why?" Liu Quan asked half in hope and half in suspicion, "Why do you want to spare my life?"
"As long as you agree to report Zhou Hong together with Lu Shuangxi," Xue Hengzhao dropped another stone on the chessboard, "I will not only keep you alive, but I will also promise to let you leave the palace and live in seclusion.
Your master must have many properties in his name, and I will let you choose one of them as a place to stay.
You will also take all the money you have saved with you, and I guarantee that I will not cause trouble for you in the future.
You may not be able to trust me, but you should also be able to trust the prince. Although you have been hurting me, every injustice has its owner and its debtor has its owner. You are just doing things for Zhou Hong. "
Liu Quan was convinced that this was indeed the case.
Xue Hengzhao has never been a small-minded person, and the two previous incidents now seem to be no fluke.
She could have Qu Linglong burned to death overnight, and Nanny Hu and others buried with her.
You can also let He Gui's reputation be ruined and his whole family suffer without making a sound.
There is also Qian Sanchun going forward...
In just a few short months, such a big storm has arisen, but not even a drop of blood has been spilled on him.
Such methods will scare even ghosts and gods!
Liu Quan knew that Xue Hengzhao didn't give him a choice at all, and he had no choice.
Either die or report Zhou Hong.
And even if he dies, Zhou Hong cannot be saved.
Adding him just makes things smoother.
"You have to take Eunuch Lu with you for the rest." Xue Hengzhao didn't even ask Liu Quan if he was willing. He just pointed at his confidant and said, "As for the one who is following you, you can figure it out yourself!"
Fang Rong really wished he could turn into a little ant and crawl into the cracks in the ground, or turn into a breeze and get out from under the door panel.
One person died in front of him, and Liu Quan was like a chicken in a cage waiting to be slaughtered.
He's a fool again!
Now he had no other choice but to show his determination to listen to Xue Hengzhao's words.
