Chapter 723 The Eighth Prince of Incompetence and Fury
When the Eastern Zhou Dynasty delegation left the imperial city, Balong and Fang Xiaodie followed Zhuo Mufeng's instructions and secretly took Ye Linlang away at the designated place.
After getting on the line with Yue Mingxi, it was naturally easy to transport Ye Linlang out of Qingsong Villa. Fearing that Yue Mingxi might be up to something, Zhuo Mufeng told them to be careful.
The two of them did not dare to neglect, they pushed their skills to the limit, changed their masks twice in the process, and hid in the middle of the vast mountains for several days. After making sure that no one noticed, they rushed to their destination safely.
"Damn it!"
As Zhuo Mufeng expected, Yue Mingxi indeed sent people to keep an eye on Ye Linlang, and even went so far as to go out personally in order to know Zhuo Mufeng's secret.
However, after Balong and Fang Xiaodie teamed up, their Qinggong skills were so good that even he couldn't keep up. This made Yue Mingxi realize that Zhuo Mufeng had a huge backer in addition to an incredible person. Could the rumors be true?
Does the Oriental Family really intend to train an outsider?
If Zhuo Mufeng told the Dongfang Family about the Moko Sect in the South China Sea, then Yue Mingxi would surely be blamed for his death!
…
While Yue Mingxi was restless, so was the Eighth Prince. On the way back, he asked Cen Gang to pay attention to Zhuo Mufeng's condition, but according to Cen Gang's report, Zhuo Mufeng was always in good condition without any problems.
"Didn't I ask you to send someone to poison me? Why hasn't the poison taken effect after such a long time?" In the tent, the Eighth Prince roared at Cen Gang.
Cen Gang was dripping with cold sweat. He couldn't understand the matter. He quickly raised his hands and replied: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I have sent a female official in the palace to administer the medicine a few months ago. I witnessed the process of the female official administering the medicine with my own eyes."
See, there will never be any mistakes!”
The Eighth Prince laughed loudly and pointed at Cen Gang: "Then tell me, what is going on now?!"
Cen Gang lowered his head and said tremblingly: "Maybe, maybe the time has not come yet. Please wait for a while longer. Maybe when you return to Eastern Zhou Dynasty, that kid will be useless."
The Eighth Prince pointed at him and nodded several times. He was obviously still very angry, but he also knew that the matter should not be rushed. Cen Gang's words also made sense. With Zhuo Mufeng's high martial arts, the effect of the medicine would definitely take place slowly.
a little.
Thinking of this, the Eighth Prince put down his hand, barely suppressed his anger, and said coldly: "Okay, I will give you another twenty days. If you let me see that boy's shameless look again, I will take you as a
ask!"
After driving away the anxious Cen Gang, the Eighth Prince walked back and forth, and finally sent someone to summon Huai Xiang.
He hadn't touched that woman for a long time. He originally wanted to get rid of Zhuo Mufeng's poison so that he could vent all his desires on Wu Yuanyuan, who was thinking about him day and night. But looking at the situation, he couldn't even think of success in ten days and a half. In fact,
It was unbearable.
Just as Huaixiang, who was dressed up, walked in, the Eighth Prince, who was impatient with waiting, looked ferocious. He went up and tore off her coat. Amidst Huaixiang's exclamations, he threw her across the platform and threw her.
Go up.
But it was said that after Cen Gang was scolded so badly, he turned his anger on the maid who poisoned her. The maid was so horrified that she turned pale and knelt down, kowtowing and begging for mercy.
Cen Gang slapped the desk and yelled: "It's useless for you to beg me for mercy! Fifteen days, I'll give you fifteen days. If you don't see the boy named Zhuo's poisonous hair, you don't have to do it anymore."
Got it!"
If she was not allowed to do such confidential things, she would definitely have to silence her. The maid was so frightened that she almost lost her soul. All she could do was kowtow and cry, saying like a curse: "Sir, this slave is really
I tried my best. Except for the fact that I couldn't poison in Beiqi, I administered enough medicine for every meal the rest of the time."
Cen Gang didn't want to hear her nonsense, so he suppressed his voice and said, "Then why is there no effect? I don't want to know the process, I just want the result, do you understand?"
The maid was also forced to have no way out. Suddenly there was a flash of light and she said: "Sir, could it be that the dose of medicine is too small? Why don't you give me more?"
As soon as these words came out, Cen Gang was stunned for a moment. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed to make sense. That kid had always been evil. Maybe his internal power could suppress the toxicity. If the dose was too small, it would be difficult to be effective.
"Kneel down!" He left a vicious message, and Cen Gang hurried to see the Eighth Prince. When he learned that Huai Xiang was in the tent, he felt helpless and had to wait outside.
After a while, Huai Xiang, with messy temples and a flushed face, walked out. Cen Gang did not dare to delay, so he hurriedly asked for permission outside the tent and shouted several times before he was allowed to enter.
"What are you doing here again?" the Eighth Prince snorted impatiently while he was drinking wine.
Cen Gang said cautiously: "Your Majesty, can you, can you give more of that medicine to your subordinates? A larger dose will take effect as quickly as possible."
Just after venting his anger, the Eighth Prince thought very quickly. He suddenly understood what Cen Gang meant, and he couldn't help but look hesitant. You must know that he wanted to buy the medicine from Xiangtian Poison Sect, but he bled violently, and the rest
Some of it he was going to use against others.
After thinking about it again and again, Wu Yuanyuan's charming face and voluptuous figure appeared in his mind. The Eighth Prince felt cruel, took out two small bags from his arms and threw them at Cen Gang's feet. He endured the heartache and gritted his teeth and said: "If it happens again
If it doesn’t work out, come and see me!”
"Please don't worry, Your Majesty!" Cen Gang didn't dare not agree, but he really regretted it in his heart. It seemed that he had pushed himself to a dead end.
It's all because of that cheap maid!
As soon as Cen returned to his tent, needless to say, he frightened the maid almost to the point of pissing her off again with such a stern voice. It was not until she repeatedly promised that she would complete the task that she waved her hand with a livid face and told her to get out.
The life of herself and the whole family was at stake. The maid was so cruel that at noon that day, she actually spilled half a packet of medicine into Zhuo Mufeng's food. She said to herself, "I don't believe it, but I can't kill you!"
The Eastern Zhou Dynasty envoys were on their way. Zhuo Mufeng knew nothing about the plot to murder him. He practiced meditation every day as usual, then chatted and drank with the eldest lady, chatted and drank with Le Qian and others. The days were full and happy.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and the two new packets of medicine the maid had received were used up again. But Zhuo Mufeng was still lively and vigorous. Is there any sign of poisoning?
This made Cen Gang, who had been observing him every day, shocked and resentful. He simply couldn't understand it. Seeing that the Eighth Prince summoned him again, Cen Gang was frightened, but he had to bite the bullet and rush.
"What's going on? Tell me, what's going on?!" The Eighth Prince, like a ferocious beast, smashed the teapot directly on Cen Gang's forehead, causing blood to flow immediately.
Cen Gang did not dare to resist. Facing the Eighth Prince who was so angry that he seemed to want to bite people, fortunately, this guy was not unprepared and mustered up the courage to say: "Your Majesty, I have tried my best, and every time I use medicine, I have given it the real deal.
However, the boy is still unaffected, and my subordinates are wondering, could it be that there is something wrong with the medicine itself?"
The Eighth Prince laughed angrily: "Oh, you mean, the powerful Holy Land forces of Southern Wu and the treasured medicines inside the Tiandu Sect are bluffing?"
Cen Gang broke into cold sweat all over his body, but with the overwhelming desire to survive, he could no longer care so much. He said firmly: "This is just a humble opinion of my subordinates. Otherwise, it cannot explain why Zhuo Mufeng is not affected."
.May I ask, Your Majesty, who did you buy the medicine from? Is it an elder within the Sky Poison Sect?"
When he said this, Cen Gang's heart was in his throat, fearing that he would be torn into pieces by the Eighth Prince in the next moment. However, when the fur all over his body was tense, he still didn't see any movement from the Eighth Prince.
Little did he know that the Eighth Prince was confused by his question.
Just because the person the Eighth Prince wanted to purchase was indeed an elder-level figure within the Sky Poison Sect who had supplied him with supplies all year round. But later, due to the exposure of the incident, this person was expelled from the Sky Poison Sect for secretly selling internal poisons, and is now regarded as a traitor.
.
Seeing that it was valuable, the Eighth Prince kept him in the palace for him to study poisons, and the finished product would naturally be fed back to him, which was considered a mutual benefit.
The medicine that poisoned Zhuo Mufeng this time was not made by the traitor. According to the other party, it was purchased through internal connections. Now that Cen Gang said it, the Eighth Prince couldn't help but doubt the traitor's words.
Cen Gang didn't see a response for a long time, so he quietly raised his head, and suddenly felt certain in his heart, saying loudly: "My lord, be careful of being deceived by traitors!"
The Eighth Prince said angrily: "Do you still need to talk more about my king's affairs?"
Cen Gang quickly knelt down and begged for mercy, asking him to be as good as he wanted.
In his early years, this guy was also a master at the top of the list of stars in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. He had a fierce temperament. However, he followed the Eighth Prince. After tasting the taste of power, he no longer had the freedom and ease of the past. He just wanted to cling to the big tree in front of him.
Keep enjoying it.
In fact, it was impossible for the Eighth Prince to punish Cen Gang for this matter. The latter was the number one master around him, and his importance was self-evident. Of course, he said coldly: "I will leave this matter to you for the time being.
Remember, wait until I return to the imperial city and find out the truth before making a decision! The most urgent task now is to cut off the tail first and get out!"
He still had two packs of medicine in his arms, but he knew that it would definitely not work, so he didn't want to waste any more. He just thought that he had spent so much effort, but he didn't hurt Zhuo Mufeng, and the woman he longed for was still being raped by him.
If he continues to do it, his psychological jealousy and irritability will drive him crazy.
Cen Gang thanked him and retreated, feeling as if he had escaped from death. However, he did not dare to relax. He immediately summoned the poisoned maid and deliberately deceived the other party. When he was sure that the other party had not leaked the relevant information, he slapped the maid's head to pieces with one palm.
Immediately afterwards, he called his cronies and ordered them to deliver news to the imperial city and get rid of all the maids and their families under house arrest to avoid future troubles.
After doing all this, Cen was truly relieved. As the victim, Zhuo Mufeng had no idea until the end of the matter.
After a long journey, the Eastern Zhou envoy finally returned to the land of Eastern Zhou. When they passed through Gusu City, the imperial edict from the Eastern Zhou Emperor also arrived.
