PFC Chapter 410 Swallowing Poison
Chapter 410 Swallowing Poison
Although he admired Bai Yanli very much afterwards and even wanted to give the position of crown prince to Bai Yanli at one point, his doubts were never eliminated from beginning to end!
It's just that it's sometimes light and sometimes heavy!
After Ning Zhuo died, he felt very regretful for a while. He missed the loving days they had spent together and felt that it was impossible for her to betray him.
Ning Zhuo was even posthumously named queen.
Bai Yanli's identity is also certain.
But after a while, he began to doubt again, thinking that he must have been betrayed. He felt that his identity must be in doubt. This repetitive emotion played out in Emperor Zhou for more than ten years.
Bai Yanli’s excellence had completely dispelled Emperor Zhou’s doubts, but the fact that Ning Zhuo was still alive brought him back to his original form.
He began to suspect again that he was being cuckolded.
In fact, Li Bo was very clear about this matter. Compared with Emperor Zhou, Li Bo, an outsider, seemed to know Ning Zhuo better than he did.
Ning Zhuo has a proud personality and dares to love and hate. It is absolutely impossible for her to have an affair with others in private.
But he didn't dare to say.
So now Emperor Zhou was standing here looking at Bai Yanli, and he also guessed what he was thinking.
People often say that it is difficult to change a person's nature. For Emperor Zhou, the feeling of never being able to trust others must have been very painful.
Li Bo sighed from the bottom of his heart and said, "Your Majesty, it's windy. Please come in quickly and be careful not to catch a cold."
The cold wind blew the hem of Emperor Zhou's clothes. He stood there looking at Bai Yanli's back, and he still liked him very much in his heart. This was the only prince who had ever walked into his heart.
He also wanted to give him the best he had.
But he seemed unable to control himself.
I always doubt his identity.
This feeling made him feel extremely miserable.
"Li Bo." As if he wanted to get some definite answer, Emperor Zhou asked slowly: "You said--"
"Your Majesty." At this moment, even the obedient Li Bo couldn't help but interrupt him. He didn't believe it in his heart, and no matter how much others confirmed it, it was in vain.
It would be better for him to ask it himself.
So, he gently reminded Emperor Zhou, "This old servant has found the address of the woman that Xu Wang keeps outside. It's in Plum Blossom Alley. If it's Empress Ning, Your Majesty will ask her about it when the time comes."
Ning Hou?
Upon hearing these two words, Emperor Zhou's eyes darkened again.
If she eloped with a man, can she still be called a queen?
That's too shameless, so he beat her to death!
When Emperor Zhou thought of this, he turned around and went back to his room with a cold face.

Northwest, desert.
"Ugh!" A mouthful of black water came out of Zhou Ziyue's mouth. It was pitch black, and the jet-like black water sprayed directly onto Shanrong's tent.
Very scary.
Zhou Ziyue also felt very uncomfortable. He seemed unable to control his body and was controlled by the urge to vomit. Not only did he vomit continuously, but his face turned black. His lips turned black, and the blue veins on his neck and forehead were also stained with black lines.
That was extremely uncomfortable.
Shen Bishui, who was standing aside, was also frightened by his appearance. They now had to deal with Emperor Zhou, Bai Yanli and others, so they had to enter Liangdu.
But their current identities are obviously not acceptable. Even if they can barely enter Daliang, they cannot get close to Emperor Zhou and Bai Yanli. So according to Shanrong, they have to change their identities now.
The identity given to Zhou Ziyue is the witch master of Daliang.
Witchcraft is a very popular magic in Daliang, and people from the Witch Sect are also respected in Daliang. A person from the Witch Sect can have many conveniences in Daliang.
What's more, he is the witch master.
But it is not so easy to be a wizard in Daliang. Wizards consume a kind of poison from a young age, which causes a very special smell on their bodies. It is said that this smell can drive away all unclean things. When people in Daliang smell this, they know that he is a wizard and will salute him from a distance.
Because Zhou Ziyue had not used this poison all year round, but he urgently needed it now, Shanrong increased the dosage for him, causing him to vomit black water after drinking it.
"General." Shen Bishui and Zhou Ziyue were now in the same boat, so when she saw his face turning black from drinking and the whites of his eyes seemed to be a little black, she asked anxiously, "Hey, will he be okay after taking this poison?"
After all, it is poison, and the dose is so large.
"You ask me how I know?" Facing Shen Bishui's anxiety, Chu An's expression was very indifferent. He had rescued the people and also thought of a solution for them.
What else do you want from him?
They were arranged to kill the Emperor of Daliang.
It's normal to suffer a little.
"General..." Shen Bishui was also very anxious. If Zhou Ziyue died, her plan would fail.
She wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Zhou Ziyue's raised hand. He vomited violently, wiped the black blood from his mouth with his sleeve, and sat down on the chair staggeringly.
Although his face was still covered in black, he had regained some strength.
He looked at the black water on the ground and knew that his body had been severely damaged this time, but Zhou Ziyue told himself -
As long as he can get Tang Wanru, he will do anything.
Even if he only got one day or died in an hour, he would be happy.
This has already become his inner obsession.
Nothing else.
So Zhou Ziyue held on to his body, shook his head and said to Shen Bishui: "I'm fine."
"That's right." Chu An finally saw some courage in Zhou Ziyue and stood up and said with a smile, "If a man can't even endure this little bit of hardship, how can he accomplish great things?"
He walked to Zhou Ziyue's side, raised his hand and patted Zhou Ziyue's shoulders twice, which almost made Zhou Ziyue collapse. He held the table with his hands to avoid falling.
"After all, you are going to be in a high position in the future." Chu An said.
Zhou Ziyue didn't want to listen to his nonsense now. He just rolled his eyes and looked at him and asked, "When will you send me to Daliang?"
He was quite anxious.
He is also in a hurry to get things done, so this matter will not be delayed.
So Chu secretly said: "Don't worry, I will send it right away."

Qiao Mansion.
When Bai Yanli came back, he saw that there were many people outside the Qiao Mansion. Because the Qiao family was also a businessman, he thought that the Qiao family was selling something.
When I got closer, I heard people say that there was news this morning that a young lady from the Qiao family was chosen to be the Saint of Daliang.
This is the first time that Daliang has selected a saint since the new emperor ascended the throne.
I heard that the appearance requirements for a saint are very high.
So they all came here to see what the saint inside looked like.
"I heard that this Miss Qiao came to Daliang a few days ago and is a close relative of the Qiao family."
"Can someone like this be chosen as a saint?"
"She must be very beautiful and have a good temperament, otherwise it wouldn't be said that she was spotted by the official just by turning a corner when she went out."
"It has nothing to do with that." Someone who knows some inside information said, "It's mainly because the higher-ups are anxious to find someone. Haven't you heard? Since the empress ascended the throne, witchcraft in Daliang has been prevalent. If they are allowed to win over the hearts of the people in this way, the consequences will be unimaginable. So the empress is anxious to choose a saint girl, who can use her temperament to suppress the witchcraft in Daliang."
"So that's how it is." Several people talked as they looked towards the Qiao Mansion.
Bai Yanli paused when he heard this.
Saint? Miss Qiao.
He remembered that Mr. Qiao had no daughter and the family was made up of only men. So, could this Miss Qiao be Tang Wanru?
