The Great Qin: Starting with marrying Jingni, I began my quest for immortality.

If she chooses to die like this, then her mother, whom she has never met, will come to be buried with her.

On one hand, there was the kindness of Sister Zi Nu in raising him, the grace of nurturing him...

On one side, there was the debt of gratitude owed to his mother, whom he had never met, for giving birth to him.

Nongyu was caught in a dilemma.

“Baseness is the passport of the base, and I certainly can’t be considered a noble person.” Jiang Chuan had a clear understanding of himself, and he had never claimed to be noble.

In many cases, he would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

Upon hearing this, Nongyu remained silent, caught in a dilemma.

If it weren't for the Fire Rain Agate that Jiang Chuan brought out, it would have been an easy choice for her.

Because she was not afraid of death.

Before entering the palace, he had prepared for any eventuality, and it wouldn't matter if he died in the palace.

She originally intended to help Sister Zi Nu at all costs and repay her kindness.

However, with the appearance of that fire rain agate, her heart gradually became unsettled.

Chapter Eighty-Eight: The rise and fall of Zilan Pavilion rests on your single thought!

"Actually, you don't need to put yourself in such a difficult position."

Just as Nongyu was caught in a dilemma, and before Jiang Chuan could speak...

Lady Mingzhu, who was standing to the side, seemed to be thinking about something. Suddenly, she swayed her hips and came to Nongyu's side.

She was already dressed and looked exactly the same as before. It was hard to imagine that not long ago, Madam Mingzhu had just had a great battle with Jiang Chuan.

"What do you want to say?" Nongyu asked in a slightly cold voice to the woman who appeared to be a succubus.

When facing the Four Fiends of the Night, she could only try to remain indifferent in order to conceal her true emotions and hide her panic.

“I’ve heard him tell me about your background.”

"You seem to be one of Han Fei's men."

"Han Fei has a close relationship with the owner of Zilan Pavilion and has repeatedly opposed the General. Earlier, because of Han Fei, the General lost 100,000 taels of gold. The General hates Han Fei to the bone and has long wanted to get rid of him."

"I suppose you think so too."

"So, is that why you'd rather die than submit to him?"

Even if you're old flames?

When she said the last three words, Madam Mingzhu emphasized them, and her words became strange.

At the same time, they became increasingly curious about Jiang Chuan's ideas.

Jiang Chuan actually wanted to keep this person from Han Fei's faction.

They could have just killed him directly.

After all, the other party already knew about their secret.

She's really clueless. You know, to keep this secret, she hasn't even dared to see her cousin lately.

But this was Jiang Chuan's idea after all.

Unable to defy Jiang Chuan's will, she could only try to speak up, help Jiang Chuan, and persuade Nongyu to change her mind.

Nongyu remained silent.

Madam Mingzhu added, "Actually, the solution to this problem is quite simple."

"I have heard of Zilan Pavilion. It is the largest brothel in Xinzheng. Its owner has close ties with many powerful and influential people, and it is also protected by some elders of the royal family. This is why it has been able to stand safely in Xinzheng City for many years."

"However, this does not mean that the General cannot touch Zilan Pavilion."

"You went to great lengths to enter the palace and secretly infiltrate the Imperial Fragrance Pavilion, all to help Tianze find an antidote for the Gu poison?"

Nongyu's pupils contracted slightly.

She hadn't expected that Madam Mingzhu would guess the answer.

A playful smile appeared on Madam Mingzhu's lips as she pulled a small bottle from her bosom—the very bottle Jiang Chuan had taken from Nongyu earlier.

"Aren't you curious about how I know all this?"

She gave an answer that shocked Nongyu.

"Because the Gu poison in Tianze's body was created by me."

Everything is now clear.

The reason why the bottle containing the antidote to Tianze Gu poison came from the palace is because the person who concocted the Gu poison was Lady Mingzhu.

At this point, Nongyu had no more doubts about Lady Mingzhu's true identity.

Without a doubt, she is the trendy enchantress.

Lady Mingzhu looked at the shocked Nongyu and continued, "Why did Han Fei help Tianze find the antidote? Did he want to use the antidote to get Princess Honglian back? Or is it that Han Fei and Tianze have been in cahoots all along?"

"Tianze's abduction of Princess Honglian was originally Han Fei's scheme."

"Did he deliberately bring Tianze into the palace, kidnap Princess Honglian, and make Tianze hold her hostage?"

"As far as I know, Han Fei was in the palace when Princess Honglian was abducted. Under normal circumstances, the palace gates would have been sealed off, and even if he were the Ninth Prince, he would not have been qualified to enter the palace."

“You’re distorting the truth.” Upon hearing Madam Mingzhu’s speculation, Nongyu couldn’t help but retort.

In her mind, Han Fei was not that kind of person.

She could not accept Madam Mingzhu's explanation.

However, in Madam Mingzhu's eyes, Nongyu's reaction was—

The person in front of me is getting anxious.

Seeing Nongyu's anxious appearance, Madam Mingzhu found it amusing. In the end, she was just a young girl, even if she was very brave and dared to sneak into the palace alone, and even sneak into the Imperial Fragrance Pavilion.

However, their attainments in the realm of the mind are still somewhat lacking.

Madam Mingzhu smiled and said, "Are you saying I'm distorting the truth?"

"I have made this conclusion based on evidence."

"Since Han Fei and his group were able to obtain this bottle, they must have already met Tianze."

"Now that Tianze's whereabouts have been found, why not inform the General and the Blood-Clad Marquis about this? Why choose to contact Tianze privately instead?"

"Rescuing Princess Honglian was originally an order from the King. Why can't we send the General and the Blood-Clad Marquis to deal with Tianze and rescue Princess Honglian?"

"Han Fei acted in secret, and even helped Tianze find the antidote, so I have reason to believe that his motives are not pure."

Nongyu was rendered speechless by Madam Mingzhu's distorted and distorted words.

So why not tell Ji Wuye and Bai Yifei about finding Tianze's whereabouts?

Of course, it's because, according to Han Fei's speculation.

Tianze was released by Bai Yifei.

.. .... ...

Under these circumstances, it was naturally impossible to tell them Tianze's whereabouts.

No one can be sure whether there is any connection between them.

Moreover, before the Gu poison in Tianze's body is cured, Tianze will be under the control of Bai Yifei and the others.

Only by helping Tianze remove the poison can Bai Yifei's schemes be thwarted.

Besides, finding the antidote would have two main benefits: first, it could bring back Princess Honglian; second, it would free Tianze from Bai Yifei's control; and third, because Tianze hated Bai Yifei, it could even gain an ally.

But of course, Nongyu could not say these things to Madam Mingzhu.

After all, he had already become a prisoner.

It doesn't matter if I die, but I absolutely cannot implicate Young Master Han Fei and the others.

Madam Mingzhu's next words caused Nongyu's expression to change drastically.

"Based on the above speculations, do you think that if I inform the General and the others about this matter, and then the General informs the King, could we shut down the entire Zilan Pavilion on the grounds that it colluded with Tianze?"

"Although Zilanxuan has an impressive background, it should be known that in Korea, the King is the true ruler."

Nongyu looked horrified, and her body trembled uncontrollably.

She thought Jiang Chuan was despicable enough, but she never expected that this wicked woman would be even more vicious.

They truly deserve to be called the Four Fiends of the Night.

"The rise and fall of Zilan Pavilion is entirely in your hands..."

Lady Mingzhu winked at Nongyu, her eyes full of amusement.
