Qin Fengyan's original intention was to leave herself a way out.

Once Qin Chuyu's life and death were tied to hers, she didn't believe they would be ruthless enough to kill her.

It was a flawless plan, but unfortunately... She encountered Gu Jiao——someone who never followed the rules.

If she sincerely repented and begged, Gu Jiao might consider letting her live for a few more days, but she actually threatened Gu Jiao with a child's life.

Gu Jiao came out of the secret chamber covered in blood, but not a single drop belonged to her.

Eunuch Wei had been a eunuch for many years and had punished tons of palace servants with private torture countless times, but he had never seen anyone like this.

"Phy…Phy…Physician..."

Eunuch Wei could only stutter.

Before he could finish, Gu Jiao took off her isolation gown and gloves, and left without any expression on her face.

Gu Jiao left the palace and went back to Bishui Alley.

She intended to change clothes before going out again. As soon as she entered the courtyard, she found that Lady Nan Xiang and Master Lu were there too.

The three little boys in the family had gone to school, and Yao shi was sitting in the main room chatting with the two of them.

"JiaoJiao is back?" Yao shi saw Gu Jiao enter the door at a glance.

Gu Jiao greeted the three of them.

"What's wrong, JiaoJiao? Are you in a hurry to go out?" Yao shi noticed Gu Jiao's hurried footsteps.

Gu Jiao said, "There's something I need to take care of. I have to go out for a while."

"Madam, Xiaobao is hungry!" Yuya'er came over carrying Gu Xiaobao.

Yao shi said to Lady Nan Xiang and Master Lu, "Excuse me for a moment."

Nan Xiang smiled and nodded, "Go ahead."

Yao shi carried Gu Xiaobao back to the room to feed him.

Master Lu continued to sit in the main room drinking tea, while Nan Xiang hesitated for a moment before knocking on the door of Gu Jiao's east room.

"JiaoJiao, it's me." She said.

"Lady Nan Xiang, come in." Gu Jiao just changed into a lightweight men's outfit and picked up the red-tasseled spear hanging on the wall, tying the loose fabric strips back into place.

Seeing Gu Jiao's current appearance, Nan Xiang knew that her business outside was not simple.

Since they were all on the same side now, Nan Xiang naturally wouldn't turn a blind eye, "It's broad daylight, what important matter are you attending to?"

Gu Jiao asked, "The Seventh Prince has been poisoned with a very strange poison. I'm going to get the antidote for him."

"Poison?" The Tang Sect was best at concealed weapons and poisons. Nan Xiang asked, "What are the symptoms? Can you tell me?"

Gu Jiao described the symptoms of Qin Chuyu and Qin Fengyan. Qin Chuyu's condition was more severe, as he had already fallen into a coma.

"This isn't our Tang Sect's poison..." Nan Xiang frowned and murmured. novelbuddy.co(m)

"What?" Gu Jiao looked at her.

Nan Xiang smiled awkwardly, "It's nothing, I mean, I haven't seen this kind of poison personally, but I've heard of it. It's a kind of voodoo poison. The Seventh Prince is still young, right?"

Gu Jiao said, "He's eight years old this year."

Nan Xiang nodded, "That's it. This poison is very potent and generally shouldn't be used on children, as they can't endure its toxicity and they may perish easily. This kind of poison has a distinction between mother and child voodoo. If someone poisoned with the mother voodoo dies, the one poisoned with the child voodoo will also die, but if someone poisoned with the child voodoo dies, the one with the mother voodoo won't be affected. The Seventh Prince should be poisoned with the child voodoo."

"Only the upper states have this kind of voodoo poison. Did the upper states target the imperial family of the State of Zhao?"

Gu Jiao replied, "It's a long story."

Nan Xiang wasn't interested in the struggle of the imperial family, so she didn't ask further. Instead, she said, "The person who poisoned the Seventh Prince probably didn't know that an eight-year-old child couldn't withstand its toxicity."

Normally, this kind of poison was used to control people, but if they die right after being poisoned, it would lose its purpose of controlling them.

"Do you know what the antidote looks like, Lady Nan Xiang?" Gu Jiao asked.

"I haven't seen its antidote, so we can only try to bring back all possible remedies." Nan Xiang said. "By the way, how long has the Seventh Prince been poisoned?"

Gu Jiao said, "He was poisoned at noon."

Nan Xiang's expression became more serious, "He won't last half a day."

It had already been almost half a day. Even if Gu Jiao flew, it would be impossible to retrieve the antidote in time.

Lady Nan Xiang thought for a moment and said to Gu Jiao, "Find someone to take me into the imperial palace. I have a way to temporarily stabilize his poisoning, but... it won't last long. You must get the antidote back before dawn."

Gu Jiao nodded, "Thank you, Lady Nan Xiang."

Grandaunt, Xiao Heng, Jing Kong——they were all absent.

Granduncle was also not around. At the moment, only Huangfu Xian could enter the imperial palace.

Gu Jiao went to the west room and woke up Huangfu Xian who was catching up on sleep.

Master Lu pulled Nan Xiang into the front courtyard, glanced around, and whispered, "Do you really want to go to the imperial palace? Don't you remember what Empress Xiao did to you back then?"

Nan Xiang smiled, "That's all in the past. The Seventh Prince is Jing Kong's friend, have you forgotten?" freew(e)bnovel.com

Master Lu said, "Of course, I haven't forgotten. Jing Kong always mentions him, and that one called Xu Zhouzhou."

Nan Xiang said, "If something happens to the Seventh Prince, Jing Kong will surely be very sad."

Master Lu let out a sigh, "That may be so, but I don't want you to go back to that place."

Nan Xiang touched her disfigured face through the veil and said, "With my face like this, who would recognize me? And even if they did, who would care anymore?"

Master Lu said, "I'll go with you."

Nan Xiang replied, "You stay here obediently and wait for me."

Master Lu surrendered helplessly.

Gu Jiao pushed Huangfu Xian out.

"Lady Nan Xiang..." Nan Xiang turned around and saw Huangfu Xian sitting in a wheelchair. Just awakened from sleep, Huangfu Xian leaned impatiently on the wheelchair, showing a bit of morning grumpiness, with redness at the corners of his eyes and a stubborn gaze.

Nan Xiang's eyes widened suddenly!

What a beautiful child!

She wanted to take him back and make him Xiaoshun's little brother!

Master Lu opened his mouth, "I think I should go with you..."

Nan Xiang swung her arm back and pushed him away, "Go away."

Master Lu who was suddenly rejected, "..."

Huangfu Xian, together with Nan Xiang, entered the imperial palace, while Gu Jiao mounted her horse with Little Nine and headed out of the capital towards the stronghold of the State of Yan’s people.
