Chapter 318 Poison attack
This sound attracted everyone's attention.
Tuoba Xi came to his father and bowed before him, then said solemnly, "Just now a young eunuch said that the Prince Consort is missing."
"Gone?!" The King of Beidi State had a gloomy face, which finally turned into anger. He grabbed the pure gold chair with his big hands, and the armrest was squeezed into a ball.
Feng Wu had a look as if he had expected this: "Lord, the result is obvious now. This Prince Consort and his companions are spies who have entered our Yixiantian. They are probably from Xuandu Country, and their cultivation is not low."
These words caused an uproar, and many ministers kept scolding them. This was a naked provocation and humiliation to the Northern Di Kingdom. If a spy from an enemy country was to become the consort of the Northern Di Kingdom, other countries would laugh at him if it got out.
The King of Beidi State was blushing at this time. Even though he was an emperor with an extraordinary mind, he could not get rid of the knot in his heart when facing this matter.
At this time Feng Wu took out a jade slip, on which were imprinted two images using a unique method. They were the faces that Feng Qingcheng and Cang Xuanye had disguised themselves before.
When the faces of these two people appeared, Tuoba Qi's pupils suddenly shrank, revealing shock and surprise.
He thought of the news he heard at the front line. The second prince Cang Xuanye and the fourth prince Cang Wuya of Xuandu Kingdom had fought. In the end, the second prince Cang Xuanye disappeared in the Beast King Forest, and Feng Qingcheng, a leader of the younger generation, also disappeared.
This was information given by a spy hidden deep in the Xuandu Kingdom. At that time, he was half-believing and half-doubting. After all, Cang Xuanye was extremely powerful, so how could Cang Wuya defeat him?
However, combined with the previous reasons, when seeing the extremely similar portraits of these two people.
Tuoba Heng suddenly realized that he was sure that the young man who almost became his brother-in-law was Feng Qingcheng, and the other person was Cang Xuanye.
Tuoba Kai told what he knew and made some speculations.
Such a result once again shocked all the ministers present. Even Marshal Feng Wu was stunned. He did not expect that the two people he wanted to capture were so powerful, especially since one of them was the prince of Xuandu Kingdom.
"Hahaha, God really helps our Great Qi." Feng Wu laughed.
Tuoba Qi was also excited. Cang Xuanye had always been a concern for him. He had always wanted to deal with this great enemy, and had originally planned to fight him on the front line. But he had never expected that the other party would enter the Northern Di Kingdom and cause such a scene.
He now wished he could rush out and catch Cang Xuanye. This would be the moment to wash away his shame.
The King of Beidi was filled with anger after being surprised.
"Damn it! Pass the order down, bring these two back to me, bring them back!"
The roar, like the sound of a bell, echoed throughout the hall, filled with rage.
"Yes!"
Everyone obeyed the order, because the king had issued an order that whoever captured the two would be promoted one level, receive a reward of ten thousand taels, and obtain a priceless treasure.
How can one not be tempted by such a generous reward?
The engagement party ended like this, and everyone left and started to take action.
After most of the people had left, Tuoba Yue'er collapsed to the ground. She was shocked to learn that the other party was from the enemy country. However, she was completely dumbfounded to learn that her own consort was actually a woman. She didn't believe it and prayed that this was a misunderstanding.
But after failing to find the two in the palace and searching the entire imperial city without seeing them, Tuoba Yue'er realized that they might really be from Xuandu Kingdom.
"How dare you lie to me!" Tuoba Yue'er cried, and drops of tears fell like gorgeous pearls.
The imperial capital of the Northern Di Kingdom was searched everywhere, no corner was left untouched, but the person they were looking for was nowhere to be found.
Tuoba Qi suddenly thought of the two knights he encountered when he came back. They looked familiar to him then, and now when he recalled them, his face was filled with sudden enlightenment.
"He is Cang Xuanye!"
Tuoba Qi sneered, summoned his army, and marched along an official road from the east gate.
By the time they realized what was happening, it was already early the next morning.
After the King of Beidi got up that day, he was going to the morning court, but he felt a soreness all over his body. He felt a little uncomfortable last night, and the doctor prescribed medicine, saying that he only needed to rest quietly. However, it was even worse now.
My limbs are numb and I have lost all feeling.
"My Lord!" A senior eunuch quickly helped the Lord of Beidi up and leaned him against the edge of the bed.
"Quickly call the medical officer!"
Soon, three elderly medical officers came hurriedly. All three of them were alchemists.
The three medical officers made several rounds of inspection in turn, but they all had a frown on their faces, looking puzzled.
"The king's illness is really strange. His limbs are weak, as if his bones are broken." A medical officer said with a frown.
"It's not the bones, it's the meridians. It seems to be caused by a blockage in the meridians."
"No, there must be something wrong with the practice."
The three medical officers started arguing, and at this time, the condition of the King of Beidi became even worse. His face turned black, and blood spurted out of his mouth. This blood was not bright red, but red with a hint of black, and it emitted a foul smell.
"My Lord, I hope nothing happens to you." The eunuch was very anxious.
"This is...poisoning!"
The three medical officers almost
They spoke at the same time, looked at each other, and saw the solemnity in each other's eyes.
For a moment, the palace was in chaos. The king was poisoned, which was no small matter. All those who had any connection with the king were arrested.
But then came the bad news that the king was dying!
This is a huge event that will bring about a huge change in the Beidi Kingdom.
All the alchemists and talented people around the imperial capital were summoned, but they still could not find the source of the poison for the king. As time went by, the poison became more and more severe, and the death aura was emanating, and he could die at any time.
the other side.
In one day, Feng Qingcheng and Cang Xuanye had already traveled thousands of miles away from the imperial capital, taking remote mountain paths all the way. They had to be alert, as who knew how the enemy would catch up.
The original plan was to escape in three days, but who knew things would change so quickly.
The imperial capital of the Beidi Kingdom is very far away from the border frontier, tens of thousands of miles away. It might take them more than ten days to cross this land, and that's even if they travel at full speed.
By that afternoon, the news had spread throughout the territory of Beidi State, and checkpoints were set up at all intersections. Not only that, but militia guards from all sides were also conducting a search and arrest operation. It was obvious that they would not give up until they caught the two of them.
This made it more difficult for Feng Qingcheng and Cang Xuanye to escape. It was very difficult for them to escape safely without being exposed.
The art of disguise is no longer effective. Every city in the Northern Di Kingdom has a huge mirror treasure, which can illuminate the area within 5,000 meters in front. Once someone gets close, they will show up again.
