The woman listened to his cautious instructions and smiled and responded. Seeing the gloom gradually disappearing from his brows, she smiled again and said: "I have recently made a new poison, I think it can help you a lot."

"You mean..."

Ran Yichen's lowered brows raised, with a slight smile hanging on her lips: "The water source in Lizhou is extremely easy to poison, and I can come and go without leaving a trace with my ability."

"Okay...but one thing you have to remember is that it must not be a plague."

Ran Yichen is an unscrupulous person, let alone the war between the two armies, and there is not much affection at all. The suggestion of the woman in front of him is obviously what he wants. But what he needs is a clean Lizhou City. If the plague spreads, it will be very dangerous.

It may even backfire on your own army.

"Um."

Half a month later, in Lizhou City.

The guard frowned as he watched the corpses being carried out and burned. After returning to the camp, a soldier hurriedly ran in: "Reporting to General Qi, many people died in the city. The signs are the same as those of these soldiers."

Generally the same."

Listening to his subordinate's reply, Qi Yan's already frowning eyebrows darkened even more. He stretched out his hand under his wide sleeves and hit the small table hard, his voice filled with indescribable fatigue: "Is it possible that the accompanying

Doctor, no one has any clues about the diagnosis?"

"It may be a highly poisonous thing, but there is no antidote."

"Poisonous? Water source?"

Qi Yan has been training in the army for many years. Although the current Qi family army is no longer as intimidating as it was in the early years, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. As a direct descendant of the Qi family, he has received an orthodox education, so he naturally has some tips on marching and fighting.

It's clear.

However, it is precisely because he knows that he is even more frightened. He has sent heavy troops to guard those water sources. How could someone take advantage of them?

"The general has gone to various defense areas to investigate, and found nothing suspicious. However, apart from the water source, the general can't think of any other way to poison."

The poisoned people were concentrated in the south of the city, which meant that the water source in the south of the city was most likely tampered with.

Qi Yan naturally understands what he can think of, but the most important thing now is not who poisoned him. After all, there is no one else but Beicang Guo. The first thing that matters now is how to detoxify and control the poison.

"Temporarily destroy the water source south of the city."

"But..." If the water source in the south of the city is destroyed, it will bring all kinds of inconveniences. Also, won't other water sources be poisoned?

These people are obviously using it for conspiracy.

"I know that if the water source in the south of the city is destroyed, then other water sources will be attacked. Even the people of Beicang Kingdom obviously want to watch us struggle to death, but we have no way out."

Those people were nakedly trying to force them to surrender by poisoning them! The water source in the south of the city was probably just a warning. If they destroyed the water source, Beicang Country would be facing a more ferocious counterattack.

But let him pretend to be nonchalant and watch the people in the south of the city die?

Qi Yan kept a straight face, but when he heard the rustling sounds coming from outside, he was so angry that he shouted outside: "Who is making noise outside? Come in."

After a few breaths, an old man wearing a sapphire blue gown appeared at the door. He was leaning on a cane and staring at Qi Yan with a half-smile. His voice contained a hint of ridicule: "Little Yanzi! My temper is getting longer and longer.

It’s over!”

Kneeling sergeant: "..."

He turned around and silently looked at his general's face, and quickly lowered his head when his face changed color due to shock.

Qi Yan: "..."

Hearing this cold nickname, Qi Yan's square face showed a bit of purple. Fortunately, he reacted very quickly. After a moment of daze, he waved the people around him to retreat, and then hurriedly walked to the old man.

: "Uncle Yan, you are here."

Seeing his obedient appearance of being low and small, Yan Wu chuckled and glanced around the surrounding furnishings, then sat on the wooden chair made of pear wood: "Little Yanzi has grown up.

I know how to march and fight."

"...Uncle Yan, my nephew has grown up, can you change this title?" Qi Yan took a deep breath. He could even imagine the look on the sergeant's face just now. He must have been the same as himself.

Wonderful!

The majesty he had accumulated over the years was lost in this call of 'Little Swallow'.

"grown up?"

"Um."

Yan Wu looked at the expectation in his eyes and coughed lightly. He played with the crutch in his hand and said with a smile: "Is it possible that when you grow up, your surname is no longer Qi? You only need to have a surname of Qi."

, then Xiaoyanzi is your nickname."

"..."

Qi Yan took a deep breath and finally gave up the struggle. Facing this eccentric Uncle Yan, he never had a chance to gain the upper hand.

"Although I received a secret order early in the morning that you would rush to Lizhou, I didn't want to come so soon."

He originally thought that after being abandoned by the Zhou royal family for so many years, he must be resentful in his heart and might take the opportunity to take advantage of Qiao. He did not expect to arrive in Lizhou so quickly.

"Lizhou can't wait any longer."

It was not that he had never thought about taking Qiao, but when Emperor Xuan of Ming Dynasty walked up to him in light cloth and bowed to him, the anger he had been holding back for many years seemed to have dissipated.

Sometimes people are so simple. What they need is not glory, wealth, fame, but just an attitude. Furthermore, the Yan family is not clear about what happened back then. Now, many years have passed, and it has no meaning to say what is right and what is wrong.

Already.

"When I entered the city, I found many corpses. Did Ran Yichen attack the city?"

He entered the city in plain clothes and only had a few guards with him, so he saw things that he could not usually see.

There seems to be something wrong with the mood of the people!

"The water source in the south of the city has been poisoned. In recent days, both the soldiers guarding the south and the people in the south have died a lot."

It is inevitable that this series of events will cause panic. It is strange that the common people have good things to say about the imperial court now.

"Is there a way to detoxify it?"

Even without asking, Yan Wu knew that the people behind this must be closely related to the people of Beicang Kingdom. If the poisoning matter could not be properly handled, then the soldiers and civilians in the city would probably be panicked. How could this battle be fought?

In the face of life and death, everyone is insignificant.

"There is no antidote for the poison yet. After all, the poisonous technique of the Red Lotus Banshee is so unique that few people can crack it."

"Honglian?" The figure of a little girl flashed in Yan Wu's mind, and his voice became a little deeper, "Do you know her origin?"

"That person likes to wear red clothes. She looks very seductive and is very good at poisoning. She has been with Ran Yichen since she appeared." Qi Yan pursed his lips, "According to the spy, she has an extremely vicious personality, but she can't deal with it."
