Chapter seven hundred and sixty seventh, sea water
For the sake of the overall situation, Huang Xiaoyuan has been holding back this kick until now.
Now he is satisfied.
How dare you call the thing I cherish the most a gadget? Even if I kick you, it would be light. If Huang Xiaoyuan were not just an ordinary person, it would be impossible to directly kick Luo Qing to death with such a full force kick from such a close range.
Although Luo Qing was not very talented, he was still a spiritual practitioner. Apart from causing some nosebleeds, this kick was not a big deal.
He stood up holding his nose, his hands covered with blood, and stared at Huang Xiaoyuan: "I will definitely kill you, I will definitely kill you!"
After all, he is the head of the Luo family, so he doesn't have any self-control.
Although he wanted to kill Huang Xiaoyuan very much now, he still resisted.
"Let's wait until you are detoxified." Huang Xiaoyuan sneered.
Doubts flashed in the eyes of the surrounding guardsmen.
They didn't understand what Huang Xiaoyuan meant by poison. Wasn't the head of the Luo family seriously ill? How did he become poisoned?
But based on their military qualities, they didn't say anything.
"Take him away." Luo Qing growled.
The guardsmen came forward, shackled Huang Xiaoyuan and took him away, but Huang Xiaoyuan seemed very calm, as if he had everything under control.
Huang Xiaoyuan was escorted to the palace.
Chaos was everywhere on the streets of the imperial capital, and the people were panicked. Even if all the imperial guards were dispatched, it would be difficult to suppress the riot.
Not to mention that the Imperial Guards had to use a large part of their strength to fight against the flock of spiritual birds in the sky.
Screams and noises kept ringing in my ears.
Luo Qing looked at Huang Xiaoyuan coldly: "Is this the result you want? What benefits did the Nightmare Queen give you, so that you can betray His Majesty, abandon your own conscience and feelings, and plunge the entire imperial capital into such a huge panic."
The sound is like a sharp thorn, directly hitting the heart.
"Betrayal?" Huang Xiaoyuan smiled after hearing this: "I have never betrayed."
"At this time, you are still quibbling. Didn't you make the list found in Zifangzhai? Didn't you put this strange poison that spread throughout the imperial capital?" Luo Qing scolded sternly.
Huang Xiaoyuan did not answer, or was too lazy to answer.
Soon, he was escorted to the palace.
His Majesty will personally judge his crime.
In the royal study.
Huang Xiaoyuan was escorted here, the other eunuchs and maids were all dismissed, and Duwei County also retreated, leaving only Luo Qing.
"Don't kneel down yet." Luo Qing growled.
But Huang Xiaoyuan remained unmoved and just looked at the man on the dragon throne calmly.
Li Xuanzong sat peacefully on the throne, as indifferent and calm as ever, like a mountain that makes people look up, but there was a hint of anger in his deep eyes.
"Forget it, there's no need to kneel down." Li Xuanzong said slowly.
The sound is dull.
Since the emperor said this, Luo Qing naturally did not dare to say any more.
There was a dead silence in the imperial study room.
"Huang Xiaoyuan, have I ever treated you badly?" Li Xuanzong suddenly asked.
Huang Xiaoyuan thought for a moment and shook his head: "Your Majesty attaches great importance to me and is as generous as a mountain of kindness."
"I supported you to become a business giant and secretly helped me balance the power of the business world. I betrothed the princess's daughter to you in order to help you stabilize your footing and to appease your heart. I even allowed you to observe when I went to court, and
I’d also like to hear some of your opinions.”
"Outsiders say that you are a popular person in front of me, so the ministers of the DPRK and the major families have made friends with you."
"I am very optimistic about you. You are young, passionate, and capable. I hope that after unifying the mainland, I will have a reliable person to manage the World Chamber of Commerce for me."
"I originally hoped this was you."
Li Xuanzong's words revealed deep disappointment, and Huang Xiaoyuan couldn't help but feel a wave of emotion in his heart.
Luo Qing listened with jealousy.
Why can't it be myself.
"A strange disease suddenly spread in the imperial capital. Countless ministers, princes and wealthy businessmen all fell ill. I originally thought it was just an ordinary plague."
"Until... even I got sick." Li Xuanzong's eyes suddenly stared at Huang Xiaoyuan, and the terrifying oppression suddenly fell.
Huang Xiaoyuan did not hold on, and simply sat down on the ground.
"This is not a disease, this is a poison, a very obscure poison." Li Xuanzong said coldly: "I couldn't understand when exactly I was poisoned. Until the spy came to me, I found a poison from Zifangzhai.
There is a list, and all the people on the list are poisoned."
Although Huang Xiaoyuan was "subdued", he was not at ease and had been sending people to protect and monitor him.
It’s just that Huang Xiaoyuan has always performed very well.
Li Xuanzong became more and more reassured about him, so he withdrew the spies.
It was not until after he was poisoned that Li Xuanzong frantically mobilized all the people to search for the poisoner in the imperial capital, and then found the list in Zifangzhai.
"Yes, it was me who poisoned him." Huang Xiaoyuan admitted very simply.
Li Xuanzong took a deep breath: "Is it Beiming shark fin?"
Regarding this point, it is not troublesome to investigate. All the people who were poisoned were those who regularly ate Bei Ming shark fins.
"Not bad." Huang Xiaoyuan nodded.
Li Xuanzong's face was a little livid. He had never pursued any sexual desires. He had not even held a concubine selection since he came to the throne. He concentrated on political affairs.
It's just that the Beiming shark's fin is really delicious, and Zifangzhai also delivers it to the palace at the right time, so Li Xuanzong naturally didn't refuse.
"How did you poison me?" Li Xuanzong asked coldly.
He couldn't understand.
Although he often eats Beiming shark fins, there are special people who test the poison before serving it. And with his strength, most of the poisons can be seen at a glance. Most of the poisons are extremely poisonous.
Under the true dragon's energy, they will instantly disintegrate and turn into flying ashes.
Huang Xiaoyuan smiled calmly and told Li Xuanzong the legend about the Netherworld Fish.
"I didn't poison because the Nether Fish itself is poisonous. When it accumulates to a certain level, it only needs a gentle induction by the medium..."
Listening on the sidelines, Luo Qing couldn't help but ask: "What kind of media is it, and how could it be induced until now?"
If it were something common, the poison would have been induced long ago.
If it is something rare, those who have been poisoned say that they have never been exposed to anything strange.
Huang Xiaoyuan raised the corner of his mouth and said softly: "Sea water."
The medium...is sea water.
The reason why Bei Ming Palace was not wiped out was because the medium was sea water, so their poison was quickly induced without serious consequences.
"Are you kidding? Where did the sea water come from here?" Luo Qing was even more dizzy.
He has never been to the beach.
Huang Xiaoyuan pointed to the sky and said lightly: "Of course it comes from the sky."
Luo Qing understood it all at once, and her face suddenly turned the color of pig liver.
He thought of the rain a few days ago.
It rained for a whole month.
It turned out to be sea water. No wonder the rainwater was so salty and fishy. No wonder some live fish fell from the sky. No wonder everyone became poisonous.
Li Xuanzong also understood, it turned out to be like this.
It's really been a long time of planning.
Since there is a problem with Beiming's shark fin, it means that the other party has been preparing for it six years ago. What an ulterior motive this is.
