Chapter 345 The Empress, the Hostage from the Neighboring Country Has Returned in Battle (Part 29)
what is the problem?
Could someone else have poisoned us today?
Who poisoned them?
What the hell is it?
Ji Yu'an did so because his hand was inconvenient.
He didn't eat anything.
If everyone was poisoned.
It's impossible that he was the only one suffering from the poison; everyone else must be in even more pain than him at this point.
After all, he ate the least, so his poisoning level should be the mildest.
But it's clear he's deeply poisoned now.
So, was the food on their table poisoned?
That's why the second princess was poisoned so quickly.
Moreover, the second princess was clearly more severely poisoned than him, and she is now dying.
But why is the eldest princess alright?
what is the problem?
Ji Yu'an really couldn't figure out where things went wrong.
Why did I get poisoned?
Ji Yu'an was soon unable to think due to the excruciating pain in his body.
Just as Ji Yu'an felt he was about to die, the imperial physician arrived.
The imperial physician examined the second princess's condition, shook his head, and said it was too late to save her.
Then he took Ji Yu'an's pulse.
Ji Yu'an was not in good condition at this time either.
Feeling drowsy and lethargic.
The imperial physician said that Ji Yu'an seemed to have several kinds of poison in his body, and it would not be easy to detoxify him.
However, after examination by the imperial physician, it was determined that the others showed no signs of poisoning.
The imperial physicians began examining the items served at today's banquet.
Ji Yu'an also kept a close eye on the imperial physician.
He needs to know exactly what caused the poisoning.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to die in peace.
The imperial physician examined the jar of wine.
Shocked.
The silver needle turned black as soon as it was placed in the ground.
This jar of wine is poisoned.
Moreover, when the wine was poured out, a lot of powder particles were found at the bottom of the bottle.
These powder particles are of different sizes and do not appear to be of the same type.
This wine has been laced with several kinds of poison.
Everything else has been confirmed to be non-toxic.
It just so happened that only the Second Princess and Ji Yu'an drank from this jar of wine at that moment.
It can now be confirmed that the poisoning of the two people was caused by poisoning this jar of wine.
This jar of wine was brought out by Ji Yu'an.
Moreover, the entire jar of wine was taken out.
It was opened on the spot.
The wine was kept under everyone's watchful eyes the whole time, and no one poisoned it.
It can only mean that Ji Yu'an poisoned it beforehand.
Moreover, there were indeed some unknown powdery substances after the wine was opened.
At the time, Ji Yu'an even enameled it as a specialty wine of Vientiane.
It now appears that Ji Yu'an was in such a hurry when he poisoned the food that those powders were left behind.
Moreover, Ji Yu'an was malicious and felt that one type of poison was not enough, so he deliberately added several more types of poison.
That's why the Second Princess was poisoned so quickly.
After all, the Second Princess had drunk several cups in a row.
Everyone felt relieved to have escaped a disaster.
If the Second Princess had been in trouble any later, they would all have perished here today.
They almost drank the wine too.
This time, Yu-An is truly malicious.
In order to kill them, he was willing to test the poison on himself.
To dispel any doubts, he was the first to drink.
Naturally, no one thought there was anything wrong with the party.
Ji Yu'an was the second princess's concubine, yet he was so ruthless as to kill someone.
They chose such a drastic method as mutual destruction.
This season, Yu'an is truly a good dog from Vientiane.
Knowing he couldn't go back, he gave up and wanted to kill them all.
Fortunately, they were lucky and escaped harm from this evil man.
It's such a pity for the Second Princess. She was deeply in love with Ji Yu'an, but ended up like this.
It's clear now that Ji Yu'an poisoned them.
Even though Ji Yu'an was poisoned, he was still alive and had been taken away and imprisoned.
Ji Yu'an was dragged away like a dead dog.
Ji Yu'an never expected that there were so many kinds of poison in that jar of wine.
So his uncle only gave him one kind of antidote, and he only took one kind of antidote.
Naturally, one can also be poisoned, by other poisons.
Who administered the other poisons?
Is it my uncle?
No, his uncle shouldn't have poisoned him.
He trusted his uncle.
It's impossible for anyone from the Second Princess's residence to be involved.
This jar of wine has been kept in his room ever since he moved in.
It's always been right under his nose.
He always had his servants keep watch outside while he slept.
It's impossible for anyone to have tampered with it.
So the wine jar had already been tampered with by others before it was moved here.
Are they envoys?
Someone else poisoned him.
With so many poisons in this wine, I'm afraid many people have poisoned it.
The last person who poisoned the wine was quite careless; even the powder got onto the wine jar.
That's what made the envoy do that.
That can only be His Majesty of the Kingdom of Wanxiang, his father.
Could it be that Father Emperor said he wanted to get rid of him?
Did his father abandon him so completely?
Was it because he brought shame upon the Kingdom of Wanxiang?
Was it because his father thought he was useless?
Father is so cruel.
Is he really his father's child?
Why did you do this to him, letting him die in this foreign land?
It turns out that when the ruler commands the subject to die, the subject has no choice but to die.
Ji Yu'an still wanted to do his last bit of effort to get rid of the eldest princess, a major threat to his father.
It turns out he was just being delusional.
He takes himself too seriously.
Ji Yu'an lay dejectedly on the prison floor.
The pain in my heart overshadowed the physical pain.
The second princess ultimately succumbed to her injuries, taking her last breath and dying.
The second princess is dead.
Ji Yu'an, the prime suspect, is even less likely to escape punishment.
Ji Yu'an was brought in for questioning.
Make him reveal his accomplices.
After all, Ji Yu'an's injuries were real, and it was also true that he couldn't move his hands and feet.
How could Ji Yu'an possibly have poisoned someone on his own?
Moreover, Ji Yu'an always stayed in the mansion, and there were always people looking after him.
Where did those poisons come from?
How did Ji Yu'an administer the drug?
Why did Ji Yu'an drug him?
Ji Yu'an's hands and feet were tied to the scaffolding.
The person was suspended in mid-air, which was extremely painful.
The thought of his father wanting to kill him made Ji Yu'an feel utterly hopeless.
Knowing he was doomed, Ji Yu'an didn't want to say anything he didn't know.
He simply stated his guess.
He was convinced that his guess was basically true.
However, Ji Yu'an only said that this was wine prepared for him by his father.
It was the Emperor who sent someone to poison the wine.
It was his father who wanted to kill him.
Originally, only I was supposed to die.
He just didn't know the wine had been poisoned.
That's why I want to share it with everyone.
Unexpectedly, this action harmed the second princess.
Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and the others did not drink the wine.
Otherwise, he would be a sinner deserving of death.
Ji Yu'an also explained that the servant boy beside him was chosen by the Second Princess.
He was surrounded by the Second Princess's people.
How could he possibly poison the wine without anyone noticing?
His every move will be known to the Second Princess.
His arms and legs were broken, making it difficult for him to move around.
He had no way to buy poison from outside.
There was no other way to put the poison into the wine jar.
And if he was the one who poisoned the drink, why would he drink it himself?
He himself is now poisoned and doesn't have much time left.
Ji Yu'an's words make a lot of sense.
They also interrogated other servants in the Second Princess's residence.
There was also Ji Yu'an's servant.
This may be the truth.
They had no way to go to the Kingdom of Vientiane to ask the emperor if he was going to kill his son and had poisoned him.
The Second Princess was indeed struck by an undeserved calamity.
Ji Yu'an is guilty and should be sentenced to immediate execution.
However, Ji Yu'an has already been poisoned and is now at his last gasp.
Killing him like this is too lenient.
No matter how incompetent the Second Princess may be, she is still the Empress's child.
Moreover, besides Jiang He, she was the Empress's favorite child.
That sweet, soft child who used to come and fawn over her is dead.
She can no longer see or hear.
The Empress was deeply grieved.
The Empress also harbored deep hatred for Ji Yu'an.
She wanted to make Ji Yu'an suffer a fate worse than death in his final days, to make him pay for her second princess's life.
The Empress instructed the imperial physicians to do everything they could to keep Ji Yu'an alive.
Ji Yu'an must endure all kinds of torture.
Ji Yu'an was suffering from both mental and physical torment.
They endured one punishment after another.
Two days later, Ji Yu'an finally couldn't take it anymore.
Even after hearing the news of Ji Yu'an's death, the Empress still felt unsatisfied.
Finally, they decided to cut off Ji Yu'an's head and send it to the emperor of Wanxiang Kingdom.
Didn't he want to kill Ji Yu'an? Now she's done it for him.
In the past two days, court officials have also made some speculations about the death of the second princess from poisoning.
The emperor of Wanxiang Kingdom wanted to kill Ji Yu'an; this is Ji Yu'an's side of the story.
Even if this jar of poisoned wine was prepared by the Kingdom of Wanxiang.
However, it's also possible that the Kingdom of Wanxiang wanted to kill their second princess, the eldest princess, or even more court officials.
Looking back on that day, Ji Yu'an's behavior is also quite intriguing.
He offered to let everyone try the wine from Vientiane.
Ji Yu'an only had this one jar of wine.
It is said that he kept it in his own room and treated it with great care, not allowing servants to touch it.
Given how much Ji Yu'an values this jar of wine, he should have treasured it or kept it for himself to savor slowly. Why would he be so generous as to share it with everyone?
When the wine was opened, the eldest princess pointed out something unusual: there was powder at the mouth of the wine jar.
Ji Yu'an hurriedly explained that the presence of powder was normal.
This is a characteristic of Vientiane's wine.
He even suggested that he be the first to try it.
They were afraid that someone would reject the jar of wine and take it away.
Seeing that no one wanted to drink, he suggested having a second cup to attract the attention of the second princess.
They kept urging the eldest princess to drink.
Invite everyone to drink.
At the time, none of them found Ji Yu'an's behavior unusual.
I was thinking that such fine wine shouldn't be wasted, and I had to try it.
If the Second Princess hadn't suddenly been poisoned, they probably wouldn't have realized the crisis.
Everyone was stunned.
Drinking really does lead to trouble.
Nothing unusual was found.
It wasn't until the last two days that I slowly realized that Ji Yu'an was clearly problematic.
The Vientiane Kingdom has been making restless moves lately.
The Kingdom of Myriad Elephants wants to declare war on their Kingdom of Phoenix Cry.
The Second Princess and Ji Yu'an, who represented peace between the two countries, are now both dead.
It is clear that peace between the two countries cannot be maintained.
Jiang He watched as the ministers seemed to have suddenly had a breakthrough.
It seems that with the deaths of the male and female leads, the protagonist's halo has disappeared, and everyone else can see things more clearly now.
Actually, the poison in that jar of wine was added by Jiang He.
After learning that Ji Yu'an had prepared that jar of wine, Jiang He prepared poison.
They even prepared several kinds of poison.
She left those powders on purpose.
It's quite amusing that someone would reap what they sow, knowing full well that the wine was poisonous, yet still force themselves to drink it.
The male and female protagonists both died because of a jar of wine, a result that is truly gratifying.
The second princess died after drinking Ji Yu'an's wine.
Ji Yu'an died because he tested the poison on himself to make the second princess drink the poisoned wine.
The fact that the male and female protagonists want to kill each other has nothing to do with her.
She just added fuel to the fire.
How can two lovers be left with one dead and the other living on alone?
Now Ji Yu'an's head has been sent back to Wanxiang Kingdom, so that he can return to his roots.
Ji Yu'an's body was placed in front of the Second Princess's tomb, kneeling in a worshipful posture.
The Second Princess died because of Ji Yu'an, so Ji Yu'an was made to kneel for a long time to atone for his sins.
The Kingdom of Wanxiang received a gift box from the Kingdom of Fengming.
Upon opening it, they found it was Ji Yu'an's head.
Everyone was terrified.
Isn't this the Fourth Prince's head?
The Emperor of Vientiane looked at this head.
What does Fengming Kingdom mean by this?
The two countries have just agreed to coexist peacefully.
The fact that the fourth prince of Wanxiang Kingdom married the second princess of Fengming Kingdom as a concubine was already a concession by Wanxiang Kingdom.
Just a few days later, Fengming Kingdom sent over Ji Yu'an's head.
This truly shows they don't take the Vientiane Kingdom seriously.
Even if he has already given up on Ji Yu'an.
He wouldn't care whether Ji Yu'an lived or died.
But Fengming Kingdom openly sent Ji Yu'an's head here. Isn't this a show of force, a declaration of war against Wanxiang Kingdom?
There was also a letter in the gift box.
The letter detailed how the jar of wine left behind by the Kingdom of Vientiane contained deadly poison.
Ji Yu'an took out the poisoned wine intending to harm someone.
They poisoned the second princess to death.
Ji Yu'an deserves to die.
This is also undermining peace between the two countries.
The Empress's decision not to punish Vientiane was already out of consideration for the friendly treaty between the two countries.
But Ji Yu'an must die.
Sending Ji Yu'an's head back to Wanxiang is considered an explanation to Wanxiang.
The emperor was unaware of this.
Ji Yu'an's uncle came out and confirmed that this was indeed Ji Yu'an's plan.
That jar of poisoned wine was prepared by Ji Yu'an at his request.
Ji Yu'an wanted to kill Jiang He.
But now it seems that Ji Yu'an has only succeeded halfway.
Having killed the second princess, Jiang He escaped unscathed.
The Emperor was surprised to find that Ji Yu'an was so filial and devoted to the Kingdom of Wanxiang.
He wasn't mistaken before.
If Ji Yu'an hadn't been harmed by Fengming Kingdom to that state, he would surely have made great contributions to Wanxiang Kingdom upon his return.
Now, the second princess of Fengming Kingdom has died.
The second princess was the empress's favorite child.
The Empress must be heartbroken at this moment.
Perhaps this is a good time to attack Fengming Kingdom.
Even if the envoy said that Fengming Kingdom now has elite troops and strong generals, Wanxiang Kingdom is not bad either.
How can we be sure that the Kingdom of Vientiane cannot win?
Now that Fengming Kingdom has sent Ji Yu'an's head, he can take this opportunity to start a war with Fengming Kingdom.
He didn't know what kind of poisoned wine it was.
It might just be an excuse used by Fengming Kingdom to kill Ji Yu'an.
The Kingdom of Wanxiang took the initiative, mobilizing its troops to attack the Kingdom of Fengming.
Jiang He from Fengming Kingdom led an expedition to meet the enemy.
They utterly defeated Vientiane, forcing it into a series of routs.
Since the Kingdom of Wanxiang wants to start a war, then let's fight.
Thanks to Jiang He's valiant defeat of the enemy, the morale of Fengming Kingdom soared.
Jiang He marched towards the Kingdom of Wanxiang.
They captured several cities in Vientiane in succession.
The people of Vientiane came begging for mercy, crying and begging for forgiveness.
They had to cede territory and pay reparations before they could finally get rid of Jiang He, this big shot.
Otherwise, the Kingdom of Wanxiang would be destroyed.
However, the fact that Fengming Kingdom has stopped doesn't mean that other countries won't take advantage of your weakness and try to destroy you.
Vientiane was quickly divided up by other countries and disappeared completely from the stage of history.
Five years later, Jiang He ascended the throne.
At the same time, they began to cultivate their successors.
During Jiang He's reign, no country dared to clash with Fengming Kingdom.
The people of Fengming Kingdom live in peace and prosperity.
