Chapter 426 Kneeling
Zhao Yan reacted and slapped the ground with wild laughter.
"Hahaha, Queen Chang, you are so stupid that you actually fell into Cheng Jiao's scheme to kill someone with a borrowed knife!"
The Queen was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground and said in panic, "Impossible, absolutely impossible. I have an antidote... Yes, I have an antidote. If he doesn't take action, you won't die..."
"Hand over the antidote, and I will spare your life for the sake of our past friendship." Zhao Yan shouted coldly, "Hurry up!"
Although she can hold on for a while because of her vomiting blood and high resistance to poison, she needs to get rid of the poison first. As for the queen, she will die! No one can save her!
Cheng Jiao watched with a smile, and was originally ready to take action, but the moment when Queen Chang succeeded, he found that Queen Chang's bond value had dropped a lot.
Moreover, not far outside the main hall, there were thousands of royal guards gathered.
It was obviously impossible that this was Zhao Yan's plan, so it must be that Queen Chang was not doing her job honestly.
The Queen felt a little dizzy. She never expected that when she wanted to pass on the blame, Cheng Jiao would use her as an excuse to kill someone else.
Her foxy eyes suddenly became watery and she seemed to be about to cry.
"Your Majesty, it was Cheng Jiao who forced me to do this. I had no choice. If I didn't listen to him, Qian'er would die, and I would die too..."
"So, just let this king die?"
Zhao Yan said sinisterly: "Don't worry, I will help you avenge this vengeance, as long as you give me the antidote."
The queen struggled for a moment and said, "The antidote, the antidote is in my bedroom..."
Since Cheng Jiao is unreliable, she can only save herself now.
Outside the hall were her confidants and thousands of palace guards.
As long as you operate well, there is a chance of turning the situation around.
Zhao Yan's face turned slightly dark. He didn't bring it with him?
Just as he was about to strip the queen of her clothes and search her, he saw a young man in the spacious inner room.
Zhao Wangyan was so frightened that his face turned pale. "Cheng, Cheng Jiao, you are here? When did you arrive?"
Cheng Jiao smiled faintly and said, "I was here the whole time, and I watched Queen Chang feed you the medicine with my own eyes."
The Queen was overjoyed: "Cheng Jiao, hurry up and kill them! Zhao Yan won't live long!"
"My king, hurry up and let's stop him!"
The two top attendants have been protecting the royal family since they took office as King of Zhao. Since Zhao Qian came to the throne, they have been protecting Zhao Yan closely and are extremely loyal.
Zhao Yan crawled to his feet, not daring to waste time, as he could only have a chance of survival if he escaped from the hall.
Cheng Jiao did not stop Zhao Yan from escaping, as he was eager to see how Guo Kai outside the palace would deal with Zhao Yan.
Seeing two top attendants blocking his way, Cheng Jiao's eyes narrowed slightly and he shouted softly, "Attract thunder!"
Lightning suddenly appeared in the void, directly killing the two top attendants who had not yet reacted.
The queen was so shocked that she was stunned and began to tremble: "You...are you a god?"
Everything Cheng Jiao used was beyond her understanding. How could a human summon thunder and lightning?
Is this a human or a god?
Cheng Jiao half squatted down, looked at the seductive queen lying on the ground, and said with a smile: "Queen, you said that it was me who forced you to poison Zhao Yan, how could I not know?"
The queen managed to remain calm and smiled, "Sir, I just spoke without thinking, yes, I spoke without thinking..."
"How do you explain the nearly 1,000 palace guards outside?"
The queen was stunned: "You know?"
She had made special arrangements to quietly surround the hall after Guo Kai and Cheng Jiao arrived.
"There are so many people here, and I'm not blind." Cheng Jiao paused for a moment, "Now tell me, do you want to die or live?" The Queen looked at Cheng Jiao's vague smile, this...
Zhao Yan fled from the inner room in a panic, and was even more frightened to find that there was no palace maid or guard outside the room.
At the entrance of the hall corridor, Guo Kai, who was waiting anxiously, vaguely saw a dishevelled figure running towards him.
An ominous premonition lingers in my heart.
When Zhao Yan saw Guo Kai, he was overjoyed and said, "Guo Kai, Prime Minister Guo, my favorite minister, come and protect me! Someone is trying to assassinate me!"
Guo Kai forced himself to remain calm and quickly walked towards Zhao Yan.
It seems that something unexpected happened, giving Zhao Yan the opportunity to escape. Fortunately, he stayed here, otherwise something serious would have happened.
"Don't worry, my king..."
"Guo Kai, you——"
Zhao Yan was punched in the stomach by Guo Kai and vomited blood. He immediately felt much better.
Wiping the blood from his mouth, Zhao Yan grinned and said, "No wonder the Queen was able to feed me poison without being noticed. It turns out that you two have been colluding with each other for a long time."
Guo Kai was a little confused. Why did he become more energetic as the fight went on?
Gritting his teeth, Guo Kai rushed forward again, determined not to let Zhao Yan leave the hall no matter what.
Immediately the two men started fighting each other. Guo Fa got ruthless and dragged Zhao Yan into the hall. As long as Zhao Yan met Cheng Jiao, he would not be able to die no matter how many lives he had.
Zhao Yan was vomiting while struggling for Guo Kai's comfort.
He cursed: "Guo Kai, you are a treacherous minister! A treacherous minister who wants to kill the emperor!!"
Guo Kai felt a little relieved. It seemed that the poisoned Zhao Yan was in a very bad condition. Otherwise, Zhao Yan, who had experienced military service, would not have been unable to defeat him and was even beaten by him.
Just when he was about to take out the dagger he was carrying to give Zhao Yan a hard blow, Zhao Yan's intuition discovered it, knocked it away and kicked it far away.
Guo Kai's eyes turned red, and he turned all his resentment towards Cheng Jiao and Zhao Yan into fists and hit Zhao Yan hard.
"I told you not to treat me as a human being! I told you to ride on me as a horse when you were little! I told you to use me to ward off disaster in front of the late king if you commit a crime! I told you! Do you dare to agree?"
Zhao Yan was beaten so hard by Guo Kai that he saw stars and fled into the palace in panic.
Guo Kai vented his anger, and when he saw Zhao Yan escaping inside, he laughed.
There is a dead end inside. If Zhao Yan doesn't die today, it will be against the will of heaven!
Cheng Jiao sensed that Guo Kai and Zhao Yan were having fun, so he stopped paying too much attention to them.
Seeing that the queen remained silent, her face turned slightly cold: "You haven't made a decision yet? How about letting me choose one for you?"
The queen gritted her teeth, knowing that today would not end well.
If I had known this, I wouldn't have made any unnecessary preparations.
Damn Guo Kai, is this the powerful Cheng Jiao?
It can even thunder!
Under Cheng Jiao's gaze, Changhou decisively used the ultimate weapon of women, which was also the weapon she was proud of and made countless men fascinated.
After slowly standing up, the queen untied her clothes, stretched out her hands, and her clothes fell down. Her pair of seductive eyes, filled with unshed tears, could cleanse the soul.
The infinite and unreserved spring scenery stunned Cheng Jiao.
He immediately understood that it was unrealistic to expect a woman like Queen Chang, who only knew how to use her body to exchange for power, status and wealth, to come up with any good ideas.
But Cheng Jiao had to admit that such methods were really useful for men.
The Queen slowly knelt down and said, "I want to live. I hope Lord Chang'an will have mercy on me and spare my life."
She just couldn't believe that as a queen of a country, she couldn't survive by kneeling in front of a man in such a humiliating way!
