"You're just talking lightly. If I asked you to kill everyone in the imperial city, would you really do it without hesitation?" Tang Youyou casually joked.
But Rong Xun gave her a half - smile, and his words were full of aggression. "If my lady asked me to kill everyone in the imperial city, I wouldn't even spare the dogs there."
Hearing this, Tang Youyou was extremely surprised. Only then did she feel that she really didn't know Rong Xun at all.
There was also that crazy and ruthless side of him.
She knew nothing about Rong Xun, neither his past nor his future.
Tang Youyou was silent for a long time. Then she turned to look at the man who was looking at her affectionately. "Rong Xun, why don't you want the throne? It was won by three generations of my Tang family with great effort."
"Because it's meaningless. It's too troublesome a thing. I don't want to waste my time on it. I just want to live a good life with you, You'er."
However, for Tang Youyou, if the Su family took power, it would be a disaster for the Tang Mansion!
She would never let the Tang family fall into the mire, nor would she let her grandfather struggle. Hearing this, Tang Youyou was cold for a moment and then said indifferently, "Rong Xun, it seems that you have to take the throne!"
At this moment, Tang Youyou stepped out of the medicine pool. Her fair and slender legs and straight little feet gently touched the ground. She was as charming as a lotus emerging from the water.
She stretched out her slender hand, took the inner garment hanging on the hanger, and walked step by step towards the couch. After a whole day of busyness, she had exhausted all her energy.
Just as she took the first step, she saw the man behind her also getting up from the pool. At the same time, he felt full of energy all over his body.
Rong Xun was surprised and quickly came to Tang Youyou's side. Regardless of whether she agreed or not, he picked her up horizontally. In the blink of an eye, Tang Youyou felt dizzy and was placed on the couch.
Before she could react, she saw Rong Xun's charming face slowly getting closer in front of her. Then the two of them got carried away and stayed up all night.
It was not until the next morning that Tang Youyou could get a moment's rest.
At the same time, there were sounds of surprise outside, which woke Tang Youyou from her sleep.
Hearing the sound, Tang Youyou slowly got up. She saw that the man beside her was sleeping soundly and attractively. But at this time, Tang Youyou was so sore and tired from his torment that she had no interest in this at all.
She carefully bypassed Rong Xun's body and came to the gate of the Tang Mansion. Then she heard a clear explosion.
Following the sound, she saw a person lying in a pool of blood. This person was actually Old Man Tang!
Seeing this, Tang Youyou panicked and walked towards him. She saw a woman standing in the distance, dressed like a beggar. She burst into wild laughter, with scarlet eyes, and said, "Tang Youyou, doesn't it feel great to watch your loved one die in front of you?"
The Old Man Tang on the ground kept twitching. While foaming at the mouth, his consciousness was gradually fading.
Tang Youyou took out the silver needles hidden in her sleeve. Then she heard the people around her worry, "Miss Tang, what should we do?"
She walked indifferently to Old Man Tang's side and stabbed the silver needle tightly held between her fingertips into his chest.
After a moment, the spread of the poison on Old Man Tang was finally stopped. Then she looked up at Wen Ruxue in front of her.
"Wen Ruxue, I spared your life before. I thought you would restrain yourself, but you keep provoking me. Do you think the pain of having your tendons severed is not painful enough for you?"
She had been as kind as possible to Wen Ruxue. Originally, she thought Wen Ruxue was the heroine in the book. But her repeated tolerance had only made Wen Ruxue so conceited that she didn't know her own limits.
Tang Youyou had had enough of being at the mercy of others!
Hearing Tang Youyou's words, Wen Ruxue immediately spat out a mouthful of blood. To her surprise, the blood she spat out was black.
This was...
Thinking of this, Tang Youyou knew that the person behind Wen Ruxue had done their homework this time. Knowing that the previous poison had been ineffective, they had come up with a backup plan.
But such childish tricks were simply ridiculous in front of her.
In an instant, Wen Ruxue began to twitch all over. Seeing this, Tang Youyou calmly said, "Everyone here, step back and disperse."
As soon as she finished speaking, the onlookers immediately dispersed.
Tang Youyou just watched calmly. Looking at the last smile on Wen Ruxue's face, she showed a devilish smile and said, "Wen Ruxue, all your efforts are nothing to me."
After Wen Ruxue exploded herself, the people around immediately looked terrified and all looked at Tang Youyou.
"Don't panic. I gave you the antidote before. You'll be fine."
Saying this, Tang Youyou glanced at General Tang beside her and said again, "What are you standing there for? Carry the head of the Tang family in!"
Tang Jun was carried to the couch. His face was ashen, obviously the poison this time was different from the ones he had encountered before.
Seeing Tang Youyou expressionless, General Tang immediately knelt on the ground. With a pleading look on his face and tears in his eyes, he said, "Miss Tang, please save the head of the Tang family. If we don't save him soon, he won't make it."
Hearing this, Tang Youyou glanced at General Tang who was kneeling on the ground and said coldly, "Even if you don't plead with me here, I will still save him. Stop this crying. It won't work on me."
After saying that, Tang Youyou looked at Tang Jun on the couch. Looking at his ashen face, black - circled eyes, and haggard appearance, he seemed to be on the verge of death.
Tang Youyou took out a bottle of pills from her sleeve. Just one pill made a change in Tang Jun's face. The black poison on his face immediately faded, leaving only a sallow face.
She used the silver needles to draw out the blood and expel the poison.
After a while, Tang Jun immediately opened his eyes. His chest heaved violently. The next moment, he spat out a mouthful of black blood, which stained the bedsheet.
Although General Tang was worried, he trusted Tang Youyou's medical skills more. He knew she would never harm Old Man Tang. He saw Tang Jun lie back on the bed after spitting out the evil blood.
He opened his eyes and looked at Tang Youyou. A forced smile appeared on his old face. "Granddaughter, grandpa is okay."
The moment she heard Tang Jun speak, Tang Youyou's eyes were slightly moist. She was more worried about Tang Jun than anyone else. He was her only relative in this world.
After hearing Tang Jun speak, General Tang also put down his worries. Then he led the people behind him out of the room, leaving the space for the two of them.
Tang Youyou gently held Tang Jun's hand and nodded. "As long as grandpa is okay, everything will be fine. The poison on you has been removed, but you still need some time for post - treatment recuperation. Grandpa, don't put too much pressure on yourself for the time being."
Hearing this, Tang Jun immediately nodded in agreement.
