Chapter 986 Liu Qingxiu is dead
After the warning voice fell, it stopped abruptly.
The entire hall fell into an eerie silence, with only the heavy breathing sounds of the people lying on the ground.
At this moment, the two leaders and soldiers who had come to report the incident belatedly realized the strangeness in the entire hall. They secretly raised their eyes to look at the emperor, and after just one glance, they trembled and looked at each other in fear.
Their emperor was actually slumped in the chair. The two of them quickly lowered their heads and dared not speak. What happened? Then the leader couldn't help but secretly glanced at the entire hall. He didn't know until he saw it, and he was shocked.
In the entire hall, except for the foreign envoys, all the ministers of Danyan Kingdom and their families who came to attend the wedding banquet of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince were either leaning on the stools or slumped at the table, their faces pale.
There were many people lying on the ground in disarray, their clothes disheveled and they looked miserable. A chill instantly ran up from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads. He didn't dare to help the emperor at all. He was completely devastated and felt that his life would be in danger no matter what.
At this time, Chu Chenxiao and Chu Chenjing looked at each other and had made up their minds. This had shocked the emperor of Danyan Kingdom and their ministers.
Moreover, their actions have caused a lot of property losses to Danyan Kingdom, which has seriously damaged their vitality. They will not have the energy to stir up trouble and jump around in the short term. It is time for them to leave.
Crown Prince Chu Chenxiao's gaze fell on the Dan Emperor, who was slumped in his chair, and he was the first to speak: "Your Majesty, given the current situation, can this prince and our envoys leave now?"
Although the Dan Emperor was filled with resentment, he was poisoned by the muscle softening powder and his whole body was limp. He couldn't even make a fist.
Therefore, he did not dare to show any resentment on his face, for he was afraid that the people of Western Chu would take the opportunity to kill him and destroy their Danyan Kingdom.
Hearing that the other party was leaving, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and felt a little excited. He quickly forced himself to speak despite his weak body:
Your Highness, Crown Prince, Your Highness, Prince Jing, I was confused and believed the slander before, and I have offended you today... Please forgive me and don't blame me! Once this matter is over, I will send an envoy to your country to apologize!
"You don't have to apologize." Chu Chenxiao interrupted him, his tone suddenly turning cold. He swept his eyes across the hall and looked at Man Chuchu and the others. "However, you can deal with these people who killed innocent people in my Western Chu territory."
After saying this, he no longer looked at the Dan Emperor's reaction and simply uttered two words, "Farewell." Then he turned and walked out of the hall. Chu Chenjing, Ouyang Yunyao, and the envoys from the Western Chu Kingdom followed closely behind him, also nodding and saying "Farewell."
The prince's guards Feng Ming and others walked in the front to clear the way, while Chu Feng and Wei Lei guarded the rear of the team, scanning the surroundings with sharp eyes to prevent any accidents.
"Your Highness, don't worry. We in Danyan will give you an explanation."
Man Hutu and Man Yanfei, who were also slumped below, were stunned when they heard the emperor say this. Could it be that the emperor really wanted to take action against Chuchu? But they were also helpless now. They could not take action themselves and could not take Man Chuchu away.
Ouyang Yunyao was walking in the team. When she passed by the goddess Man Chuchu and her subordinates, she moved her fingertips slightly, and a few ice needles as thin as cow hair shot towards them silently and penetrated into their bodies accurately.
This ice needle was used by Ouyang Yunyao to catalyze the poison that had already been applied to Man Chuchu and the others. Long before, she had injected a colorless and odorless chronic poison into the others and then sent them to the villa of Crown Prince Tuoba Di.
If Ouyang Yunyao hadn't activated the poison today, they would have been paralyzed in two months. The icy needles now catalyzed the poison, causing them to paralyze within twelve hours. There was no antidote, and they would have died within a year.
Ouyang Yunyao has never been a kind-hearted and soft-hearted person. She would not show mercy to these people who had harmed the people of their Western Chu State. What's more, they had planned to capture her. How could she let them go easily?
She spared their lives just to let them experience a life worse than death. What's more, Crown Prince Chu Chenxiao had just proposed to the Dan Emperor to deal with these people, which also posed a difficult problem for the Dan Emperor.
If the Dan Emperor really took action to deal with them, he would create enmity with the Dan Yan Clan; if the Dan Emperor was unwilling to take action, after twelve hours, these people would become disabled and no longer pose a threat.
Upon seeing the Western Chu delegation depart, Crown Prince Bei Jinheng of Beiyue and Crown Prince Xuanwei of Nanjiang followed suit, taking their own envoys with them to take their leave. In the vast hall, only the Danyan people remained, slumped in the air.
When Chu Chenxiao and his group stepped out of the wedding hall of the East Palace, they found that the hall was empty, with only two maids from Ouyang Yunyao of their Western Chu Kingdom guarding the door.
There was not a single person from the Danyan Kingdom left. Even the attendants, palace maids, and imperial guards who had surrounded the palace had disappeared without a trace.
Chu Chenxiao's eyes darkened slightly, and he understood what was happening. He glanced at his third brother and realized that this was the work of the soldiers from the Artifact Battalion arranged by Chu Chenjing. However, he remained calm, a smile hidden in his eyes, and continued to walk out.
In fact, it was just as Chu Chenxiao thought. The people here had already been knocked down with sleeping pills by the soldiers of the Artifact Camp wearing invisible cloaks and piled up in the side hall next to them.
At this moment, the more than one hundred soldiers from the Artifact Battalion were standing neatly in the open space on the other side of the hall, quietly waiting for them to come out.
Only Chu Chenjing and Ouyang Yunyao could see the soldiers of the Artifact Battalion wearing invisibility cloaks. This was because the cloaks could only be seen through a special micro-perspective lens, which the two of them were wearing.
Ouyang Yunyao walked out of the hall and saw the soldiers at a glance. She made a gesture calmly.
Seeing this, the captain of the Artifact Battalion immediately raised his hand in a military salute, signaling that all of them were on standby. Ouyang Yunyao nodded slightly, a faint smile playing on her lips. With a gentle wave of her hand, the hundred or so soldiers instantly vanished, all returning to her space.
Once this matter was settled, there was no more hindrance for the group. They quickly left the East Palace, boarded the carriage that had been prepared, and drove towards the posthouse in the capital.
Inside the carriage, Xiaolu and Mei'er, who were following Ouyang Yunyao, finally had the chance to talk to the princess.
Xiaolu couldn't hold back any longer and happily reported, "Princess, Mei'er and I have completed the task you assigned us!"
Ouyang Yunyao's eyes lit up instantly, "What? Did you really get rid of her?"
"Yes!" Mei'er nodded vigorously, "Princess, Liu Qingxiu is dead!"
"Great! We finally got rid of this scourge. There will be a reward when we go back!" Ouyang Yunyao said happily as she looked at the two of them.
This is because Ouyang Yunyao was afraid that the people of Danyan Country might not kill Liu Qingxiu, so she asked Xiaolu and Mei'er to find an opportunity to get rid of Liu Qingxiu.
