Tragic death and rebirth, the daughter of a general poisoned the government and the country
Chapter 241 Hua Yan vs. Zui Gu
At night, the breeze blew away the heat of the day, and the chirping of cicadas in the distance made the maid who was keeping watch drowsy.
Nan Rongjing, dressed in nightgown, was squatting under the eaves of a courtyard in the General's Mansion, gently knocking on a closed window.
Boom, boom, boom.
One after another, the sound rang out regularly in the dark night.
But the people in the house didn't seem to intend to pay attention to him, and the windows were still closed tightly.
Nan Rongjing couldn't help but mutter in his heart, could it be that Lin Yushu had worked in the Imperial Household Department? What kind of mechanism was installed on this window that it was impossible to break it open!
No matter how anxious he was, he didn't dare to really use all his strength to break the window. The current General's Mansion was not the same as it used to be.
There are guard trainings everywhere in the palace now, and all these guards are soldiers who have been on the battlefield. Their vigilance is incomparable to that of the guards in other palaces in the capital.
If he really made a big noise, dozens of guards would be attracted in an instant.
Nan Rongjing sighed slowly.
"It seems that when my poison attacks, I can only endure it."
After saying that, Nan Rongjing stood up and prepared to leave.
Creak... The window that had left Nan Rongjing at a loss for half an hour was finally opened.
Lin Yushu stood by the window with a cold face, raised her hand and threw a bottle of detoxification pills to Nan Rongjing.
Nan Rongjing subconsciously caught it, but accidentally pulled the wound on his shoulder and subconsciously let out a "hiss".
Lin Yushu, who was just about to close the window and leave, stopped when she heard the voice.
"But you're injured?"
Nan Rongjing instantly put on an expression that was obviously painful, yet forbearing.
"I'm fine, you can go back soon, it's cold at night."
Lin Yushu secretly clicked her tongue, did not expose him, and moved aside to make room for the window.
"Jump in."
Without Lin Yushu repeating herself, Nan Rongjing, covering his wound, instantly jumped into the house.
"The movements are quite quick."
Lin Yushu took out the medicine bottle and gauze with a cold face.
The gauze was lifted layer by layer. It was white at first, and then blood oozed out slowly.
It actually started bleeding!
The dissatisfaction in Lin Yushu's heart disappeared instantly the moment she saw the hideous wound on Nan Rongjing's shoulder.
"Why is it so heavy?"
Nan Rongjing watched Lin Yushu's gentle movements as she applied medicine to him and carefully wrapped the gauze around him, and he felt very comforted.
"It's not serious, just a superficial wound."
Lin Yushu's eyes were a little red, and she rolled her eyes at him when she heard that.
"You can obviously avoid going through that dense forest, why do you have to go through it?"
It turned out that she was angry about this. Nan Rongjing's heart moved slightly. Lin Yushu was angry that he could obviously avoid the assassin, but he rushed into it and got injured.
"I want to see you soon."
Lin Yushu's hands trembled and she almost dropped the gauze. The worry in her heart finally turned into a sigh.
"Do you know who assassinated you?"
Nan Rongjing's expression became serious, "Nan Huaishuo."
Lin Yushu tied the gauze gently without changing her expression. She had already guessed that it was Nan Huaishuo.
"And Xu Ce."
Lin Yushu was stunned. She didn’t expect Xu Ce to do such a thing for Nan Huaishuo!
"I have something to tell you about Xu Ce."
Lin Yushu told Nan Rongjing about Cao Bingyan's matter and also told him her own guess.
"I suspect that the reason why Xu Ce was controlled by Nan Huaishuo, in addition to his son Cao Zhichang, is probably also related to Cao Bingyan."
Nan Rongjing nodded thoughtfully, "I will check this matter thoroughly."
Lin Yushu tilted her head and revealed a rare playful smile.
"Guess how the prince died?"
Nan Rongjing was about to blurt out "It's still Nan Huaishuo", but when he saw the expectant look on her face, he immediately understood.
"It's you?"
Lin Yushu blinked and talked about her newly made poison, Hua Yan.
After hearing about Hua Yan's toxicity, Nan Rongjing admired Lin Yushu's talent in refining poison very much, but still made an involuntary comment.
"I still prefer something bloodier, like gouging out eyes, chopping off hands, skinning, and removing bones..."
Lin Yushu's small nose was wrinkled with fine wrinkles, and she glanced at Nan Rongjing with disdain.
"Hey, you're so cruel!"
Nan Rongjing: “…”
Nan Rongjing remembered something and asked Lin Yushu with some confusion.
"It's normal for Nan Huaishuo to take action against the prince while I'm not in the capital, but how did you avoid the poison from the prince and Nan Huaishuo's men?"
Hearing this, Lin Yushu was slightly absent-minded. Nan Rongjing didn't know that she was reborn, so he didn't know how much preparation he had made for today.
"Do you still remember the incident in which the Crown Prince was assassinated in the East Palace?"
Nan Rongjing nodded. There were many relatives of maids, singers and even concubines who were killed by him lurking in the prince's mansion. They hated the prince to the core and were used by Nan Heying. A group of people attempted to assassinate the prince in the East Palace, but unfortunately they failed in the end.
It was also because of that assassination that all the servants in the Eastern Palace were cleared out, and even the few hidden chess pieces left by Nan Rongjing were driven out of the Eastern Palace.
Even if Nan Huaishuo wanted to take action, he must have put a lot of thought into it.
So Nan Rongjing was very curious about how Lin Yushu did it.
Lin Yushu smiled bitterly, "In this world, only love and hate can make people risk their lives. Even if they know that they are like moths flying into a flame, they will resolutely go to their death and never look back..."
"Could it be...the relatives of those killed by the prince?"
Lin Yushu nodded and thought about herself. She was so lucky to have the chance to start over again and get rid of all those who had harmed her relatives in her previous life.
Revenge is really addictive.
The same goes for those "moths".
"I don't know her name. I only know that she escaped the East Palace's purge. I also know that she wanted to avenge her daughter who was abducted by the crown prince and then tragically killed. She does the dirtiest and most tiring work in the kitchen of the East Palace. Only an inconspicuous person like her could take the opportunity to put Hua Yan into the medicine furnace when adding firewood to the furnace..."
Nan Rongjing listened to the whole story in silence. He had no sympathy for the mother and daughter. He did not understand what "sympathy and pity" meant. He only admired Lin Yushu's meticulous and careful approach.
She actually started looking for loopholes in the Eastern Palace a year ago and kept searching for such a long time before she could deal a fatal blow to the Crown Prince and Nan Huaishuo at the last moment.
"Since Nan Huaishuo has people from the Eastern Wu Kingdom around him, the method he used is most likely Gu. How did your poison work?"
No one knows better than Nan Rongjing that a powerful poisonous Gu can devour all poisons and weak Gu, just like the gold-eating Gu in Nan Rongjing's stomach.
Lin Yushu was proud, "Of course Hua Yan is more poisonous than Zui Gu!"
"Drunken Gu?"
Lin Yushu slowly told him what had happened during the month he was away from Beijing.
After saying that, Nan Rongjing sighed inwardly. He had originally told Lin Yushu not to act rashly, but she ended up poisoning the prince to death.
Not only did it cause the prince to die in extreme pain, it also ruined Nan Huaishuo's plan, pulling Nan Huaishuo directly from the darkness into the sunlight, exposing him completely.
Now, I’m afraid Nan Huaishuo must hate Lin Yushu, the mastermind behind all this.
