Save the Bachelor of Heaven

After Li Chengye and Gao Xian left, Xiang Nan introduced Chai Mu to Pei Zhao.

"Mr. Chai is a member of Princess Mingyuan, and he has been active in the western region for these years." Xiang Nan recommended, "The reason why the attack on Danchi went so smoothly this time is thanks to Mr. Chai's assistance. Not only sent Qianlong envoys to explore the map, but also He also poisoned Dan Chi's war horse."

When Pei Zhao heard this, he saluted quickly.

"From now on, we will be a family." Xiang Nan said again, "Trust each other, help each other, work together, and seek a great cause together."

Pei Zhao and Chai Mu nodded.

At this time, Hu Xiao, one of the potential dragon envoys under Chai Mu, walked in with a solemn expression.

"Sir, Gu Jian did not meet us at the agreed place." He reported.

Hearing what he said, everyone was taken aback.

"How is it possible, where can he go?" Chai Mu immediately asked, "Have you looked around?"

"We've searched everywhere, but we haven't found any trace of him," Hu Xiao explained.

"Look again, within a radius of fifty miles, no, within a hundred miles, we must find his trace." Chai Mu ordered.

"Yes." Hu Xiao nodded, and then retreated.

"Fifth prince, I'm sorry, I didn't expect such an accident. Don't worry, I will definitely get Jian'er back." Chai Mu apologized to Xiang Nan.

He knew that Gu Jian had unreasonable thoughts about Princess Jiu, and he had persuaded him many times before, telling him to stick to his duty, keep in mind his blood feud, and sever his emotions and desires.

Unexpectedly, in the end, something went wrong with him, and he never returned with the nine princesses.

If he really eloped with Princess Nine, then things would be too bad.

As a result, the marriage and marriage plan between Feng Dynasty and Xizhou will be gone, and Xizhou is likely to suffer from the endless anger of Feng Dynasty, and the people will inevitably die at that time;

Secondly, Gu Jian's unreliable behavior will also make Xiang Nan have doubts about them. The so-called suspect does not need to be used, and the employing person is not suspected. Losing the trust of the fifth prince, how could they rehabilitate Gu and Chen.

"Jian'er, Jian'er, why are you so confused?!" Chai Mu said with hatred in his heart.

"Mr. Chai, don't worry, I think I know where they went." Xiang Nan waved his hand.

"Where?" Pei Zhao asked curiously.

"Xizhou Palace." Xiang Nan explained.

Qu Xiaofeng is not a love brain, and he cannot abandon his relatives for the sake of love. Otherwise, she would not abandon Li Chengyin and flee back to Xizhou after recovering her memory.

Moreover, Qu Xiaofeng is simple, but not stupid. As soon as Gu Jian took her away, the coalition forces of Feng Chao and Shuo Bo crushed Dan Chi, and she couldn't fail to notice the tricks in it.

Therefore, after she realized that something was wrong, she would definitely choose to return to Western State. It was her home after all, and she could truly feel safe there.

Chai Mu was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, "I'll take people back to Xizhou Palace right away."

...

After Chai Mu left, Xiang Nanxian and Pei Zhao went to Shuobo.

Prince Lidun has returned to Shuobo at this time, and Xiang Nan wants to see who can win the battle for the throne between him and the old King Shuobo.

Xiang Nan and Pei Zhao led 1,000 light cavalry on a starry night, and arrived at Fort Casa in the morning of the second day.

But unexpectedly, it was still a step late. Prince Lidun moved faster than they expected.

He had already secretly led five thousand soldiers back to Shuobo after the coalition forces defeated Danchi's army.

Although the old Shuobo King received Chai Mu's reminder, he had already prepared himself and set up an ambush in the palace to kill Prince Lidun when he returned to the court.

But I didn't expect that it was still a short move. Yuan Ke, the commander of his bodyguard, was already a member of Prince Lidun, so he told him all the plans.

Prince Lidun seized Shuobo's military power during the crusade against Danchi, and dispatched 100,000 troops.

Therefore, Casaborg, the king's city of Shobo, was extremely empty at this time. In addition, there were internal support in the city, so Prince Lidun took only 5,000 personal soldiers, and successfully entered Casa Fort, hacking the old King Shobo to death with a single sword. He himself sat on the Shuobo throne.

When Xiang Nan and Pei Zhao arrived, Prince Lidun had already ascended the throne and became Shuo Bo's new king.

"King Lidun's movements are really fast. I brought soldiers to help you to the top, but I didn't expect you to have already done it yourself." Xiang Nan laughed.

"This kind of thing is not to be done, and it will not be delayed." King Lidun said triumphantly, "We people in the western region are impatient, we have made an agreement, I will send troops, and you will help me get the position.

Now I have sent troops and won the battle, but I am waiting for you to replace me and become the prince, what time will it be! I couldn't wait any longer, so I did it myself. But Fifth Prince, in this way, it means that you didn't help me with this favor!

Forget it, I don't care about it, when I go back to the Central Plains, I will tell your father, the old king Shuobo, was bloody on the battlefield in the battle with Dan Chi, and died a worthy death. That's it! "

Xiang Nan smiled, "King Lidun is right. It is better to ask for others than to ask for yourself. Don't worry, I will give you good words in front of my father."

"Thank you so much." King Lidun said with a smile, "Come on, let's serve wine. Fifth Prince, should you wish me a drink?"

Immediately, the attendant brought up the fine wine.

"Okay, congratulations to King Lidun for fulfilling his wish and finally ascending to the throne." Xiang Nan raised his glass and said with a smile, "I also wish Feng Chao and Shuo Bo a good relationship and good relations for generations to come."

"Okay, good relations with each other, good relations for generations to come." King Lidun laughed triumphantly when he heard this.

He didn't notice at all that when he raised his glass to drink, Xiang Nan flicked his fingers and poisoned his wine.

Because the movement was extremely swift, King Lidun didn't notice it at all.

Xiang Nan has learned skills from Li Guishou, Huang Yaoshi, Wudujiao, Ji Wubing, etc., and is good at preparing hundreds of poisons.

Some poisons are so toxic that they almost seal the throat at the sight of blood, and die immediately after ingestion; some poisons have slower toxicity, lurking in the body for ten and a half months, or even a year and a half before attacking.

Regardless of whether the poison is violent or slow, once it occurs, it will be difficult to get rid of it.

Xiang Nan got it for King Lidun, it is a slow poison, the name is [Duan Jin Rou Gu Pill].

As the name suggests, once this kind of poison takes effect, a person's muscles and bones will slowly rot, from a healthy and strong person to a disabled person with weakness, broken tendons and brittle bones.

It is better to die than to live.

This kind of poison is latent for a month before it slowly takes effect, and the poisoned person will be tortured to death within a year.

According to Xiang Nan's estimate, before the death of King Lidun, his subordinates would have already started fighting for power after they realized that he had become a useless person.

At that time, how King Lidun usurped the throne will be followed by others, and he will also be killed by others.

This is called retribution!

Xiang Nan knew that King Lidun was cruel, cunning, cold-blooded, and ambitious, so he would not trust him to rule Shuo Bo.
