Chapter 7: The Arch-Enemy of Poison

  "Aren't you going to make a move?" Yuan Shuheng's sword was pressed against Dong Qingyuan's neck, with a hint of mockery in his eyes. To say the least, this Lord Dong wasn't someone who was unable to truss up a chicken, it's just that no one had ever seen him take action before. Moreover, there were people like Fei standing beside him, so he didn't even have any room to make a move!

  "Are you sure I didn't make a move?" Dong Qingyuan put a woman on the same level as himself for the first time. Moreover, the one in front of him couldn't even be considered a woman, just a little girl. She looked absolutely no more than twelve years old. But it was this young girl who did such a thing.

  Although I don't know how Non-Jian compares to this girl, I absolutely can't be her opponent. Since we can't use force, we'll have to use something else.

  "Are you referring to those poisonous drugs?" Using poison to deal with oneself, that's not a bad idea, as long as the poison is effective. Inferior goods like these are really uninteresting.

  "Even if I don't make a move, are you planning to murder an official of the imperial court?"

  Dong Qingyuan framed Yuan Shuhuan with a crime, would this girl really have such ability? Even if it were Pei Mingxuan, who could easily kill himself, he still wouldn't dare to move against himself. It's truly because they had the same concerns, although generally speaking, they couldn't do anything to each other.

  This dynasty has no one who can replace each other's position, and when one generation dies, the court will become chaotic. The name of the two walls, isn't it because they separately supported half of the rivers and mountains! To say that this is a great unrighteousness under heaven is absolutely not an exaggeration.

  "Murdering an official appointed by the imperial court? What's the big deal. Or do you think that without you, this imperial court would fall into chaos and become uncontrollable?" It is said to be a dual wall, but in fact it is also a kind of check and balance. Using Pei Mingxuan to check and balance the prime minister, or using Dong Qingyuan to check and balance Emperor Xuan, after all, it's just the emperor's plan.

  "Isn't that right?" Dong Qingyuan remained calm and composed, family and country were obsessions that no one could give up. Without a country, where would the home come from? Similarly, without a home, where would the country come from?

  "You really overestimate yourself. You should know that the world has never been short of anyone, and all things are fleeting. Looking at the rise and fall of kings and nobles throughout history, what sun or moon ever rose or set for their sake? Even if one is a great minister or an emperor, in the end they will be nothing but a handful of yellow earth, leaving behind only a few written records."

  It's better to let others comment, and it's not certain when they will be pointed out as a deer being mistaken for a horse. It's better to be nameless and silent. Only this group of men would be so boring as to seek these things, and in the end, it's just that there is nothing at all.

  Dong Qingyuan's face turned very unsightly, unexpectedly this woman was actually like this...... The words she spoke were tinged with a few parts of disdain for the world and its ways, yet in her disdain for the world and its ways, there was a clarity and understanding that was quite beyond the ordinary. Dong Qingyuan didn't even know how to determine what kind of mood this girl was in when she said such words.

  Many courtiers can usually guess one or two people's minds, at least they should be able to determine what the emperor's intention is. But at this moment, although others have spoken clearly and I myself have understood it clearly, yet somehow I am unable to make a judgment on how much truth and falsehood there are in this matter.

  "Scared?" Yuan Shu Huan looked at Dong Qingyuan's face, which was getting paler and paler, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone. However, Dong Qingyuan had said one thing right - that he wouldn't kill him today. What Dong Qingyuan did to Fei Xing was simply excessive, and death would be a mercy for him.

  "You don't want to kill me, otherwise you wouldn't be wasting so much time talking nonsense with me here." Dong Qingyuan said this sentence very firmly, at least he didn't feel the killing intent on those people. In other words, at least for now, Yuan Shuhuan still doesn't have the intention of harming himself, even though this matter is currently so easy and effortless for Yuan Shuhuan.

  "Of course, this is just the price you pay for your offense..." Yuan Shu Han blinked his eyes and then pulled down Dong Qingyuan who was falling. Is this guy playing with me?! How did he fall like that all of a sudden? Suddenly, Yuan Shu Han let out a cold laugh, this guy wouldn't fall without reason, can only say He Fang Xiao is too cunning.

  "Thank you, miss. Please hand the person over to me." Before Yuan Shu Huan appeared a young boy, about six or seven years old. With an innocent and mischievous smile, he even politely waved at Yuan Shu Huan. Of course, what was on his mind, Yuan Shu Huan had no idea. And by "handing over the person", he probably meant this guy in his hands, who happened to be the current Grand Chancellor.

  I'm also very confused, what is meant by "counting up", Dong Qingyuan was originally the prime minister of the current dynasty. But why did this guy want to rob his own labor achievements, if not mistaken, Dong Qingyuan's guard was cleaned up by himself.

  "Han'niang, Qingyuan should have been doomed to this fate, but unfortunately, it has dragged you down." Dong Qingyuan had just blacked out in front of his eyes, but fortunately, he was also a medical student and immediately bit the tip of his tongue. Even so, he could only barely wake up, but had no ability to resist at all.

  No matter what, today is doomed to be a disaster. Even if Yuan Shuhuan intends to spare himself, there are others who will become his own calamity. Dong Qingyuan could only secretly sigh, and the other party's identity was guessed seven or eight out of ten. Moreover, since the other party had put down their own guard, the other guards who were not poisoned would likely be unlucky even if they were not killed by Yuan Shuhuan.

  "No one can take away my prey from me." This might be called instinct, the animal's instinct to protect its food. Although there are many complicated reasons involved, Yuan Shu Huan didn't say anything wrong. Dong Qing Yuan has already fallen into Yuan Shu Huan's hands, which is equivalent to being hunted and caught by Yuan Shu Huan, so Yuan Shu Huan's words are not unreasonable either.

  It's really a terrible description, but it's better to fall into Yuan Shuheng's hands than the opponent's. At least it's an internal struggle, and Pei Mingxuan is more considerate of the overall situation than this girl!

  Dong Qingyuan let out another sigh, feeling that Yuan Shuheng was not very reliable. But at this time, except for this girl, there really wasn't anyone else who could help him. Dong Qingyuan's heart was tangled, but he didn't know that Yuan Shuheng had seen his wound and raised an eyebrow slightly before disappearing without a trace.

  "What's the point of bringing people back? Can you save them? Moreover, you really think I'm a person who came here. Such poisonous medicine has never been lost since I knew it myself. Yes, only two words can be used to describe it, and I couldn't configure such a thing."

  "This is no longer your concern." Yuan Shuhuan's eyes showed an increasingly obvious disdainful expression, and the man felt a wave of discomfort in his heart. Seeing Yuan Shuhuan's confident appearance, the man felt like he was just a clown, let alone during their previous clandestine struggle...

  The one who suffered the loss was not that arrogant guy, but himself. There was no need for an obvious battle between them; the competition among pharmacists had always been so simple yet complex. Moreover, how could such a young girl possibly harm him? Although the facts were right in front of his eyes, the man still didn't want to believe it.

  "Up." The man made a mysterious gesture in the air, and the words he spoke represented the meaning of that gesture.

  Yuan Shu Han shook his head, truly worried about the man's IQ. It's better for people like this not to come out and mix with others, as they are absolutely representative of low intelligence. Although he might not admit it himself, sneak attacks are not acceptable. Yuan Shu Han didn't plan on reminding the man of anything, but just quietly watched him.

  As no one came out to attack him, the man made another gesture in the air, this time more complex than before but still recognizable from previous times.

  What a slow-witted guy, those people in the dark are fighting each other, is there still a little chance of survival? The man seems to have not realized this yet, although his face looks good, but his brain is really bad, can his master really let him out with peace of mind?

  "What have you done?" If the man still didn't realize what Yuan Shu had done, then he wouldn't need to continue living in this world. But the two of them had been together all along, so when exactly did this woman make her move?

  "I said I didn't do anything, do you believe me?" Yuan Shu Huan grabbed Dong Qingyuan with one hand. Anyway, this guy's status is high, and now it's just like this. It doesn't matter how they treat each other anymore, since they've both become pawns in someone else's hands. The only question is whether Lord Dong understands his own identity right now.

  "You really think I have no way to deal with you." The man threatened, this woman was indeed a bit ungrateful, obviously only needing to put down an insignificant person would be enough. Moreover, didn't the man just have a grudge against this woman earlier? Why did this woman still want to protect him!

  "What are you going to do with me?" Yuan Shu Huan was indeed a little curious, what method this man had for himself, but would it really be okay if the blood kept flowing like this? The poison in Dong Qingyuan was clearly the same as Pei Mingxuan's, was this person in front of him the source of this poisonous drug?

  To be honest, there is indeed a bit of skill involved, at least to the point where one can play with oneself like this. Apart from Yan Yunjin, who is a human puppeteer, it seems that only this person in front of me has managed to survive until now without dying.

  The man's face suddenly looked very unsightly, this woman obviously knew that she couldn't do anything to her. At least in terms of medical skills, he had no way to deal with this woman. The man sized up Yu Shu Huan from head to toe, was it because she had been studying poison for a long time that she didn't grow taller?
