Chapter 2757 2759【Broken Muscular Rotten Bone Pills】


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


    "Mr. Chai is from Princess Mingyuan and has been active in the Western Region these years." Xiang Nan introduced, "The attack on Danchi was so successful thanks to Mr. Chai''s assistance. Not only did Qianlong envoys be sent to explore the map, but also He also poisoned Dan Chi’s war horse.”


    When Pei Zhao heard this, he quickly saluted.


    "From now on, we will all be a family." Xiang Nan added, "Trust each other, help each other, work together, and seek great causes."


    ?Pei Zhao and Chai Mu both nodded.


    At this time, Hu Xiao, one of Chai Mu’s Qianlong Envoys, 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 stunned.


    "How is it possible? Where could he go?" Chai Mu asked immediately, "Have you searched everywhere?"


    "We have searched everywhere, but can''t find any trace of him." Hu Xiao explained.


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


    “Yes.” Hu Xiao nodded and then retreated.


    "Fifth Prince, I''m sorry, I didn''t expect such a change. Don''t worry, I will definitely get the sword back." Chai Mu apologized to Xiang Nan.


    ??He had long known that Gu Jian had evil thoughts about the Ninth Princess, and had persuaded him many times before, asking him to abide by his duties, remember his blood feud, and renounce his emotions.


    Unexpectedly, something went wrong with him in the end, and he took the Ninth Princess with him and never came back.


    ??If he really eloped with the Ninth Princess, things would be too bad.


    As a result, the marriage plan between Toyoto and Xizhou will be in vain. Xizhou is likely to suffer the endless wrath of Toyoto, and all people will be devastated by then;


    Secondly, Gu Jian''s unreliable behavior will also make Xiang Nan suspicious of them. As the saying goes, don''t use people who are suspicious, and don''t use people who are suspicious. How can they rehabilitate the Gu and Chen families after losing the trust of the fifth prince?


    "Jian''er, Jian''er, why are you so confused?!" Chai Mu said in his heart, hating the fact that iron cannot become steel.


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


    “Where?” Pei Zhao asked curiously.


    “Xizhou Palace.” Xiang Nan explained.


    ?Qu Xiaofeng is not a lover, and he cannot give up his relatives for the sake of love. Otherwise, she would not have abandoned Li Chengyin and fled back to Xizhou after recovering her memory.


    Furthermore, Qu Xiaofeng is simple, but not stupid. As soon as Gu Jian took her away, the Toyo Chao and Shuo Bo coalition forces defeated Dan Chi. She would not have been unaware of the fishiness involved.


    So after she realized something was wrong, she would definitely choose to return to Xizhou. After all, it was her home, and she could truly feel safe there.


    Chai Mu was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "I will take people back to Xizhou Palace right away."


    …


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


    ?Prince Lidun had returned to Shuobo at this time, and Xiang Nan wanted to see who could win the battle for the throne between him and King Lao Shuobo.


    Xiang Nan and Pei Zhao led a thousand light cavalry on a starry night journey and arrived at Casa Fort the next morning.


    ?But they didn’t expect it to be a step too late. Prince Lidun moved faster than they thought. Long after the coalition forces defeated Danchi''s army, he secretly led five thousand soldiers back to Shuobo.


    ?Although King Lao Shuobo received Chai Mu''s reminder, he was already prepared and set up an ambush in the palace, waiting for Prince Lidun to return to the court to kill him.


    But I didn’t expect that there was still one move missing. Yuan Ke, the commander of his guards, was already a member of Prince Lidun, so he told him all the plans.


    Prince Lidun took advantage of the campaign against Danchi to take control of Shuobo''s military power and mobilized all 100,000 troops.


    ?Hence, the castle of Casablanca, the royal city of Shuobo, was extremely empty at this time. In addition, there was an internal response in the city, so Prince Lidun, with only 5,000 soldiers, successfully entered Casa Castle and hacked the old King Shuobo to death with one sword. He sat on the Shuobo throne.


    When Xiang Nan and Pei Zhao arrived, Prince Lidun had already ascended the throne and became the new king of Shuobo.


    “King Lidun’s actions are really fast. I originally brought soldiers to help you ascend to the throne, but I didn’t expect that you had already done it yourself.” Xiang Nan laughed and said.


    "This kind of thing is just a matter of not doing one thing and not letting it go without delay." King Lidun said proudly, "We people in the Western Region are impatient. Let''s make an agreement. I will send troops and you will help me take the throne.


    ?Now that I have sent out troops and won the battle, how long will it take me to wait for you to take the throne for me and for you to become the prince? I couldn''t wait any longer, so I did it myself. But Fifth Prince, if you do this, you are not helping me!


    Forget it, I don’t care. When I return to the Central Plains, I will tell your father. Just say that the old King Shuobo died in a blood-stained battlefield with Dan Chi and died a worthy death. That''s it! "


    Xiang Nan smiled and said, "King Lidun is right, it is better to seek help from others than from yourself. Don''t worry, I will give you a good word in front of my father."


    "Thank you very much." King Lidun smiled and said, "Come on, serve the wine. Fifth Prince, should you wish me a drink?"


    Immediately, the waiter presented the grape wine.


    “Okay, congratulations to King Lidun for finally getting his wish and ascending to the throne.” Xiang Nan raised his glass and said with a smile, “I also wish Feng Chao and Shuo Bodun good relations and good luck in the future.”


    “Okay, good relations and good relations will last forever.” When King Lidun heard this, he burst out laughing triumphantly.


    ?He didn''t notice at all that when he was raising his glass to drink, Xiang Nan had already put poison in his wine with a flick of his finger.


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


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


    Some poisons are so toxic that they can almost seal the throat with blood and cause death immediately upon entry; some poisons are more slowly toxic, dormant in the body for ten and a half months, or even take a year and a half before taking effect.


    No matter whether the poison is violent or slow, once it attacks, it is difficult to cure it.


    Xiang Nan was ordered by King Lidun. It was a chronic poison, and its name was [Duanjinfuguwan].


    As the name suggests, once this poison takes effect, a person''s muscles and bones will slowly rot, and a person who was originally healthy and strong will slowly become a **** with weakness, broken muscles and brittle bones.


    It is simply worse than death.


    ?This poison lies dormant for a month before slowly taking effect, and will torture the person poisoned to death within a year.


    ?According to Xiang Nan''s estimation, before King Lidun died, his men would have already begun to fight for power after realizing that he had become a useless person.


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


    This is called retribution!


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