Yuan Yuhan recalled and said, "It seemed to be about causing chaos in the harem. He was caught red - handed by the emperor, so he was arrested. I still remember that this incident was handled extremely secretly back then.
But after all, it was the imperial palace. How could there be no leakage of information? Later, this news spread and reached the emperor's ears. The emperor killed all those who knew about it to keep it a secret."
So that was the case. Now it seemed that the forces behind Eunuch Hai were really powerful. It was just unknown who Eunuch Hai was working for. Suddenly, Jing Xunce thought of someone.
"What do you think of Prince Wen?" Jing Xunce thought that Eunuch Hai was very likely one of Prince Wen's men.
"I think my uncle is a bit too low - key. It's as if he doesn't even exist." This was very abnormal. After Jing Xunce's question, Yuan Yuhan began to have doubts in his heart.
"But if that's the case, my uncle is really patient! How many years has he been waiting?" He had to admit that Prince Wen had great self - control. He admired that.
"Precisely because of this, we need to be more careful. Moreover, I suspect that Eunuch Hai is Prince Wen's man." Jing Xunce voiced his suspicion.
Yuan Yuhan didn't say a word after hearing this. In fact, he also had some doubts in his heart but just didn't say it out. Now that Jing Xunce had brought this matter to the surface, they would just investigate it carefully. A fox would surely show its tail sooner or later.
"By the way, do you need any help? I have some medicine here." The poison was just newly developed, and she hadn't found anyone to test it on. The King of the Grasslands would be a good test subject, but this Prince Wen also seemed suitable.
Yuan Yuhan looked at the poison in Mu Fengqie's hand and twitched the corner of his eye. This woman was really bold. She always wanted to use medicine. His Aru was much gentler.
"Qie'er, what kind of medicine is this?" Jing Xunce looked at Mu Fengqie curiously. When he entered the door just now, he saw Qie'er tinkering with something, so he didn't go over to disturb her.
"This medicine was developed by myself. As for its effect... I'm not quite sure yet. I need someone to test it." As she said, she set her eyes on Yuan Yuhan.
Mu Fengqie originally wanted to ask if he had any death - row inmates, but Yuan Yuhan misinterpreted her meaning. He thought Mu Fengqie wanted to test the medicine on him. Frightened, he stood up and ran away.
Mu Fengqie looked at Yuan Yuhan in confusion, looking puzzled. "Why is he running? Am I that scary?"
"Qie'er, don't mind him. He's just out of his mind." Jing Xunce disdainfully glanced at the direction where Yuan Yuhan had left.
"Okay. Take this medicine. When you see the King of the Grasslands, use it on him. This is itchy powder, the enhanced version. I just don't know how effective it is." But it shouldn't be bad.
Jing Xunce looked at the itchy powder in his hand and silently lit a candle for the King of the Grasslands. But it was his own fault for being so bad. He couldn't blame others.
"Don't worry, Qie'er. I'll let the King of the Grasslands test it for you tomorrow." He was going to take the King of the Grasslands shopping tomorrow anyway. He could just let him test it then.
"I'm not in a hurry. You should be careful tomorrow. I won't go. I'm going to find Feng'er to discuss the situation of Tule Haojia. What if we can't get the heart - blood of the King of the Grasslands?
Although we can use the King of the Grasslands' blood to wake Tule Haojia up temporarily, it's only temporary. Once the medicine wears off, he will faint again."
"Okay."
The next day, Jing Xunce took Mu Nan to the inn where the King of the Grasslands was staying.
"King of the Grasslands, let's go. This marquis will take you to stroll around the capital of our Qin Dynasty." Jing Xunce looked at the King of the Grasslands expressionlessly.
The King of the Grasslands followed Jing Xunce without saying a word. Jing Xunce was quite surprised by the King of the Grasslands' cooperation. He had thought there would be a conflict, but nothing happened.
"Come on. Isn't the Marquis of Zhongning going to take this king shopping?" The King of the Grasslands felt that Jing Xunce wasn't following. He turned around and saw Jing Xunce standing there in a daze.
Jing Xunce took the King of the Grasslands to the busiest street in the capital of the Qin Dynasty, letting him truly feel that the population of the Qin Dynasty was much larger than that of his grassland tribe.
Jing Xunce took the opportunity when the King of the Grasslands wasn't paying attention to sprinkle the itchy powder Mu Fengqie gave him on him. With so many people around, who would know who did it? Anyway, it wasn't him.
Jing Xunce waited quietly for the King of the Grasslands to react, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't see any abnormality. He began to have doubts. Of course, he doubted whether he had sprinkled the medicine on the King of the Grasslands, not Mu Fengqie's medicine.
Ridiculous! Qie'er was so talented. How could this itchy powder fail? So it should be his problem. So Jing Xunce took another opportunity when the King of the Grasslands wasn't looking and sprinkled some more. This time, the amount was much larger. He didn't believe the King of the Grasslands wouldn't react.
Facts proved that the King of the Grasslands was really okay. This made Jing Xunce quite suspicious. How could this be? This shouldn't be the case! So Jing Xunce sprinkled all the remaining medicine on him. Fortunately, the itchy powder Mu Fengqie made would turn colorless once it came into contact with the human body.
Jing Xunce gave up looking at the King of the Grasslands who was completely fine. Was Qie'er's medicine ineffective? Jing Xunce didn't want to believe it at first, but the fact was right in front of him, and he had to believe it.
"Marquis of Zhongning, let's go to another place. There are too many people here." The King of the Grasslands almost got knocked down by the crowd just now.
These commoners were so annoying. One day he would trample on this land and make them homeless.
Jing Xunce took the King of the Grasslands to the other end of the capital. Obviously, there were much fewer people here, and the things on sale were very delicate. He now suspected that Jing Xunce had done it on purpose just now.
But he had no evidence, so he had to let it go.
"King of the Grasslands, you must be hungry after strolling for so long. This marquis knows there's a very delicious wonton stall ahead. Let's go there and have something to eat." As he said, Jing Xunce smiled.
The owner of that wonton stall was really fond of spicy food, so the wontons he made were also spicy. People without a certain tolerance for spicy food didn't dare to eat there.
The King of the Grasslands looked at the people at the wonton stall sweating profusely and didn't understand. It wasn't very hot now. Why were these people sweating so much? He understood after taking a bite of the wonton.
He glanced at Jing Xunce and saw that he was eating one wonton after another without changing his expression. His fighting spirit was aroused. Even though his mouth was numb from the spiciness, he didn't say a word.
