In the middle of Cangshan Mountain in Dali and at the foot of the peak, the majestic palace is where the Dali Imperial Palace is located. However, at this moment, this place no longer belongs to the Duan family of Dali, although they have not owned it for a long time.
On the palace wall, all the symbols belonging to the Duan family of Dali were violently removed, and the three flags of "Chu", "Shu" and "Jinghai" were planted.
Soldiers in three types of armors walked through the city in an orderly manner, escorting prisoners, transporting grain and grass, property, jewelry, or other miscellaneous things.
It's like when bandits enter a village, they just stand out and pass by without sparing any of them.
Just like locusts passing through the border, not even a blade of grass will grow. Take everything you can take away, and take away what you can't take away in your belt.
The three bandit leaders, King Chu, King Shu and King Jinghai, gathered in the main hall of the Dali Palace, drove all the guards outside the palace gate, and sat together on a table that was incompatible with this majestic palace. in front of a simple little table.
There were no fine wines and delicacies on the table, and there were no maps or plans. There was just an opened brocade box.
The brocade box is not gorgeous, it can even be said to be a bit crude. If it weren't for some withered flowers on it and the brocade inlaid inside, it might not even be called a brocade box. It can only be said to be a simple wooden box.
But just such a simple wooden box made the three princes, King Chu, King Shu, and King Jinghai stare at it intently.
"Gulu~"
King Jinghai swallowed in confusion, looked away from the brocade box, looked at the King of Chu and then at the King of Shu, and said with some confusion: "What's going on? Why is there only half of the antidote this time?" pieces?"
If only one of the antidotes is half a pill, it can be said that someone secretly ate it on the way. But now that all three antidotes are half pills, then no one would dare to be so blatantly bold. The idea could only come from Jiang Yunqing, who provided the antidote.
King Chu and King Shu looked away from the brocade box one after another. They looked at each other, but neither got an answer from the other's eyes. They could only shake their heads helplessly.
Jiang Yunqing has always been mysterious and unpredictable from the moment he got involved in the Suzaku Sect battle. Who knows what this guy has planned?
However, even if you have some plans, there is no need to take it out on them, right?
It's not like they haven't tried to let the poison in their bodies take effect. The pain of life being worse than death is still vivid in their minds, and every time they think about it, they get a faint headache.
This poison may not be fatal, but the pain that is worse than life and death can be fatal if it lasts for a long time.
In this troubled world, the three of them can become the princes who dominate one side. Which one is not a person who licks blood at the edge of a knife?
They are not afraid of death, but they are afraid of meaningless death. Just like Li Siyuan, he worked hard and calculated to become the king of Jin, but in the end he was killed like a chicken. All the calculations were empty talk, and all the plans were empty talk. All the hard work ended up being a wedding dress for others.
But now, they have another thing to fear, and that is the poison in their bodies.
That kind of pain is difficult to describe in words. In that one attempt, I almost killed myself with a knife, and it was over.
Fortunately, the antidote was nearby when I tried it, so no big disaster happened.
But this also left a huge shadow in the hearts of many princes. It is not that they have not asked famous doctors and saints to check their bodies, but those famous doctors and saints seemed to be in vain. Even when the poison in their bodies was about to attack, they could not Find out something.
It was disappointing for a time, but fortunately Jiang Yunqing delivered the antidote in time every time, but this also meant that they could not resist Jiang Yunqing's orders.
This is why they traveled across mountains and rivers to attack Dali as soon as Jiang Yunqing sent him a letter.
There is no way, the antidote is really irreversible!
"Snapped!"
King Jinghai slapped his hand on the table and shouted angrily: "We traveled thousands of miles and spent our own food and supplies to help him attack Dali. Not only did we receive news from him here, we spared no effort in manpower and material resources to help him capture the wild beasts." Sent to Qi State, there is no merit but hard work.
All you have to do is kneel on the ground to please him. How can you kill a donkey without doing anything like this? "
King Chu stooped, glanced at King Jinghai with his somewhat turbid but extremely deep eyes, and said angrily: "You are yelling at Mo Zi with us here, if you have the ability to yell at the man named Jiang, look at him Will I cure all the poison for you at once?"
"I······"
King Jinghai opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he was swallowed back by King Chu's words with a strong accent.
He only roared a few times to vent his anger because he was in Dali and the emperor was far away.
Now in the Central Plains, he really didn't dare to do this. He heard that the people from Huanyinfang had penetrated into all parts of the Central Plains, and thinking about it gave him chills down his back.
"Don't say a few words, I feel like there is something underneath this antidote!"
King Shu raised his hand and pressed it in the direction of King Chu and King Jinghai, signaling them to be quiet.
King Chu and King Jinghai were slightly stunned. They both leaned over and stretched their heads to the edge of the brocade box to observe carefully.
The King of Shu, however, reached out directly, grabbed the brocade in the brocade box, and picked it up along with the antidote inside.
This behavior scared King Chu and King Jinghai, and they shouted in unison: "Be gentle/be careful!"
The King of Shu ignored it, picked up a piece of paper at the bottom, and put the brocade back together with the antidote. He watched the three half-filled antidotes rolling around in the silk satin, and many more dropped. The medicinal powder can make them so distressed that they almost have a poisonous attack.
[In view of the general environment,
The two of them were in a hurry. You disliked me and I disliked you. They rubbed back the powder that fell on the antidote and then breathed a sigh of relief.
Standing up and looking at King Shu, King Jinghai took the lead and asked, "What is written above?"
King Chu then asked: "Did Jiang Yunqing write it?"
"Um!"
The King of Shu nodded, put the note on the table, exhaled lightly and said: "He said he was assassinated and frightened. He has been feeling restless recently. There was a problem in refining the antidote, and only half of it was found. The finished product, this time there was only half the amount of the antidote. In order to prevent us from uneven sharing and causing any conflicts, he distributed it to us in advance, half a pill to each person. The effect of this half pill is naturally There is no good one, it can only relieve half of the pain."
"Huh~"
Hearing this, King Jinghai took a deep breath and comforted himself: "It's good to relieve half of the pain. If the pain is half, I can still hold on!"
As he said this, he couldn't help but bared his teeth. In fact, even if the pain was reduced by half, it would still be very uncomfortable.
"Forehead!"
Hearing King Jinghai's self-understanding, the King of Shu was slightly startled, and then handed the note to King Jinghai: "When he said half the pain was relieved, he meant half the time. Originally, the pain would last about four hours. , taking half of the antidote will only cause pain for two hours."
"Um!
!
"
King Jinghai grabbed the note. King Chu's stooped figure was even more flexible at this moment. With a stretch of his hand, he jumped onto the table, rushed to King Jinghai's side, and looked at the note together.
When they understood the contents of the note, their bodies suddenly softened. One fell down on the table and the other fell on the stool, looking slumped and a little desperate.
Two hours...
Among them, King Shu, who had the best physical fitness, only lasted for half an hour when he tried.
"Which of the Thousand Swordsmen did it? What did you think of assassinating the man named Jiang? That guy killed King Qi and Li Siyuan as if they were just for fun. Can he be assassinated easily?"
After a long silence, King Chu jumped down from the table and said angrily.
"Who has nothing to do and send someone to kill him? What good will killing him do to us? Even if we want to kill him, we have to let him detoxify us first!" King Jinghai shouted helplessly.
"Maybe he was not assassinated, but the nails we buried in Qi Country were pulled out. Don't say that Qi Country doesn't have your people!"
The King of Shu looked deeply at Chu
Wang and Jinghai Wang glanced at each other and made it clear. We are all old foxes and there is no need to pretend to be stupid here.
As soon as these words came out, both King Chu and King Jinghai fell silent and looked at each other in silence...
