601 The Emperor Visits, Doting on His Grandchildren

In his hurry just now, Nangong Li did not have the time to carefully choose the poison. He only casually took a bottle of poison made of arsenic, but it was enough to scheme against people. The effect of arsenic was strong, and even an expert couldn’t be saved after drinking it, let alone a few little brats who were less than three years old.

Nangong Li smiled smugly. While he was thinking, a man in black jumped down from the roof beam and cupped his hands. “Your Highness!”

He had been in the room just now. The pageboy had entered in a hurry and he had nowhere to hide, so he jumped onto the roof beam.

Nangong Li had already sensed his existence the moment he entered the room. He was not too surprised to see him jump down. The man in black was Nangong Li’s trusted aide. He specially took care of some unpresentable things for Nangong Li. Even the Queen did not know of his existence.

The man in black looked in the direction where the pageboy had left and guessed, “Does Your Highness want to poison those children? They have a divine doctor by their side, and the daughter of the Helian family also knows the Qihuang technique. If they find out…”

Nangong Li smiled casually. “So what if they find out? He was sent by the Queen. The things were asked by the Queen to buy. How can they suspect me? Even if they know that I once came into contact with those things, I’m the Queen’s son. How could the Queen be able to remove herself entirely?”

The man in black said, “Your Highness, you mean… you want them to be suspicious of the Queen?”

Nangong Li mocked, “My mother treated that group of people with all her heart, but in exchange, they were suspicious. Do you think my mother will be disappointed in them?”

The man in black continued, “What if they don’t discover it and really let those children eat it?”

Nangong Li played with the medicine bottle in his hand and said, “If the children die, won’t my mother be even more defenseless? There are three lives between them. They have no choice but to fall out!”

The man in black thought about it and nodded. However, he thought of something and wondered, “What if… it enters someone else’s stomach?”

Nangong Li smiled. “Someone else? Which member of the Ziwei Pavilion isn’t one of theirs? Even the death of that burly maidservant is enough to make their hearts ache for a long time. Wouldn’t they think that this thing was originally supposed to be fed to the children? It was just that someone else ate it by accident. In that case, won’t they still suspect my mother and fall out with her?”

“Therefore, no matter how the situation develops, the Queen is destined to turn against them. Your Highness is really brilliant. I admire you!” The man in black said sincerely.

Nangong Li was not someone who would be confused by a few flattery. He waved his hand indifferently and said, “Alright, there’s no need to say these words. Did something happen in the dungeon when you came to look for me so late at night?”

“Something did happen, but…” At this point, the man in black smiled mysteriously.” It’s not a bad thing.”

“Oh?”

“Your Highness, please follow me.”

Nangong Li and the man in black went to the dungeon of the Queen Manor.

The dungeon of the Queen Manor was originally used to imprison the servants who had committed crimes. As prestige and power were established, the unruly servants were all chased away, leaving behind those who did things honestly, so this dungeon was left idle.
