Chapter 37
Guan Jiajia sat on the horse's back, and as the horse started to move forward, her heart beat a few times.

The two directly entered the palace, and the palace was full of celebrations, decorated with lanterns and festoons.

Guan Jiajia got off the horse, and was supported by the servant girl in the palace to walk into the front hall.

As soon as he entered the front hall, Gu Zhao saw the bright color in the middle, it was his own brother, the current emperor.

Gu Heng.

When he saw that Gu Zhao and Guan Jiajia were all safe and sound, cruelty flashed across his eyes.

But soon, he restrained the emotions in his eyes, pretended that nothing happened just now, and walked in front of Gu Zhao.

"Our brothers have been dependent on each other since we were young. Now, my brother, you are finally married. I am very happy. To celebrate your wedding, I brought you the best Yunqing wine."

All eyes were attracted by the wine cup held by the servant.

In this kind of marriage, don't you usually give some gold and silver treasures?
Why does the emperor send wine?

It was still served in a wine cup, it seemed that it was intended for Gu Zhao to drink it during worship.

Compared with everyone's doubts, Guan Jiajia and Gu Zhao knew very well what the emperor had in mind when giving wine at this time.

The blatant assassination outside just now, others don't know who it is, but both Guan Jiajia and Gu Zhao know who it is.

Gu Heng is just worried that after Gu Zhao marries the daughter of Marquis Zhenyuan, if the two join forces to fight for his throne...

So in order to avoid what he was worried about from happening, he had to make Gu Zhaoche completely controlled by himself.

Guan Jiajia's eyes fell on the wine cup filled with Yunqing Niang.

Probably poisonous in it.

The emperor's mind was so vicious, in order to consolidate his throne, he was able to do this kind of murder to his own younger brother.

[You guessed it right, this Yunqing Noodle has been poisoned, and it is a slow poison. After drinking it, it will not be poisoned immediately, but it can eat away at people's internal organs. Correspondingly, his antidote is also Chronically, the antidote needs to be taken for three years, and the detoxification effect can be achieved by suppressing the toxicity time and time again. 】

Hearing what Little King Kong said, Guan Jiajia frowned.

In order to contain Gu Zhao, this Gu Heng was really ruthless.

"Imperial Brother, this is the best Yunqing Noodle that I found with great effort. I remember that your favorite drink is Yunqing Noodle, what? Did I remember wrong?"

Gu Heng saw that Gu Zhao hadn't left for a long time, and the look in his eyes turned cold in an instant.

There was a chill in his aggressive eyes, as if Gu Heng didn't drink, then he was his enemy and wanted to rebel!

Gu Zhao's body moved, he had no choice but to do so, if he didn't drink, he would be declaring war with the emperor.

Walking to the side of Yun Qingniang, Gu Zhao picked up the glass of wine and looked at Gu Heng with a bleak look, "Since Brother Huang wants me to drink it, then I'll just drink it."

He didn't want to explain too much, handing over the military power, being unarmed is not enough, since Brother Huang wants to hold his life in the palm of his hand, then he will follow his wish!
He pinched the wine glass in his palm and slowly brought it to his lips.

He took a deep breath, ready to drink the poisoned wine.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a figure rushed out beside him.

Then, the wine glass in Gu Zhao's hand was snatched away by Guan Jiajia. Without giving anyone time to react, she raised her head and poured the poisoned wine down her throat.

Gu Zhao's fingers trembled slightly.

He turned to look at Guan Jiajia in disbelief.

It seemed completely unexpected.

When he suddenly came back to his senses, his brows tightened suddenly, "Why did you rob—"

After Guan Jiajia finished drinking, she threw the wine glass into the maid's tray, "Since it's a good wine, I'll try it for my husband first."

She looked at the tense blue face of the emperor, and smiled brightly, "Thank you, the emperor, for coming to give us blessings, and it's time for us to pay homage..."

The meaning of repelling is vague in the words.

Gu Heng snorted coldly.

Gu Zhao didn't drink the poisoned wine, but Guan Jiajia was the one who drank it. Thinking that this is the daughter of Marquis Zhenyuan, she was poisoned on the first day she married Gu Zhao, so how could Marquis Zhenyuan give up?
It can be regarded as indirect sowing dissension.

In the future, it may be a whimsical idea that Marquis Zhenyuan can still help Gu Zhao without any grievances.

Gu Heng's expression eased a lot.

He didn't stay any longer.

"In that case, then I will go back to the palace first."

When the emperor left, Guan Jiajia felt as if her stomach had been burned by flames.

After all, it was poisoned wine, and when it entered the body of an ordinary person, Guan Jiajia's gaze faltered for a few seconds, and then there was nothing unusual.

Gu Zhao's eyebrows and eyes were gloomy, "Why do you want to rob?"

There was worry and anger in his eyes.

Worried about Guan Jiajia's body after drinking poisoned wine.

Angry because he implicated her.

"The emperor said that this is good wine, what's the matter if I take a sip? Why are you so stingy!"

Guan Jiajia pretended not to know anything and looked at him angrily.

Gu Zhao didn't speak again.

After the two finished their worship.

Guan Junan was urgently called to the prince's mansion.

The most important thing now is that Guan Jiajia has been poisoned.

The poisonous wine she drank was called Lead Huasan, a chronic poison made from the most poisonous snakes and flowers. At first, she only felt discomfort all over the body and burning in her stomach. As time went by, the poison penetrated deep into the blood During the period, the color of the skin will become darker and darker, and it will peel, like a snake shedding its skin.

When the toxicity finally breaks out, the five internal organs and six lungs are soaked and eaten away by the toxicity, and there is no cure for it.

The moment Guan Junan heard the news, his black eyes seemed to be covered by a black mist.

The man who had always been calm and self-restraining, at this moment, was furious, and the veins on the back of his hands were bulging.

"Does only the emperor have the antidote?"

Gu Zhao sighed, "Whether he has an antidote or not, I don't know now. His poisonous wine was originally intended to deal with me, so even if there is no antidote, it will have no effect. After all, it will not matter if he is dead, but now It's Jiajia, if we want to find the antidote, we must find the person who made the poison back then."

"The person who made the poison of Qian Huasan? Didn't that person die more than ten years ago?"

Guan Junan had heard of this person, and he had a great reputation in the world.

"But he has an apprentice, who seems to be named Hua Rui. Half a month ago, I heard that he was in the capital, but now, he should have left. I will find someone to inquire about it."

Just after Gu Zhao finished speaking, Guan Jun'an, who was silent at first, suddenly raised his eyes, his eyes were a bit threatening, "My lord, do you want to continue to bear it?"

"Forbearance?" Gu Zhao smiled lightly.

"These years, the emperor has forced you to hand over your military power step by step to become what you are now, isn't it enough? Now because my sister married you, your life is hanging by a thread. You give in everywhere, what do you get? It's him And then again and again, step by step, so, does it make sense?"

Gu Zhao looked up at Guan Junan.

At that moment, his eyes flickered.
