Besides the one dressed in finery and adorned with numerous accessories, who seemed quite aristocratic, the rest were all women trained from childhood to be assassins.
The women warriors of the Western Liang Kingdom were given a special drug from childhood.
After taking this medication for many years, their blood would carry a special scent.
This special scent makes one feel as if they have taken spring tonic, causing them to lose control in some aspects and their fighting ability.
At this moment, the several women who had been sprinkled with powdered flowers by the flower were all falling to the ground and screaming loudly. They seemed to be in immense pain.
The woman dressed in finery couldn’t take it anymore. She jumped to her feet and glared fiercely at Huāduǒ, “Who are you?”
How could she have seen through the special nature of their Xiliang Kingdom assassins?
And what exactly was in the bottle she held, that caused such agonizing pain to her assassins?
Unless she was in excruciating pain, she knew these assassins would never show such a pathetic side.
“Who I am doesn’t matter, what matters is why the esteemed princess of Xiliang Kingdom would be here?”
Hua Duo’er curled her lips, “I was fortunate enough to have seen it many years ago.”
Xizi Ke’er narrowed her eyes, not many people in the world had seen her!
Who is this woman?
Xizi Ke’er’s inquisitive gaze rested on the flower bud, she pondered for a moment and then suddenly realized:
“It’s you! The daughter of the former Grand General of the Lan Nation, Hua Duoer!”
The little flower smiled, “It’s rare for the princess to remember a humble girl like me.”
Xizi Ke’er let out a cold snort, “Aren’t you from the Blue Nation? How did you end up here? You know that for ruining this princess’s good time, you’ll face dire consequences?”
Huāduǒ’er smirked, deciding not to continue wasting time with this kind of woman. She turned to An Xuetang, “?tāng, this is the little princess from Xīliáng country, Xīzǐ Kē’ěr.”
And these on the ground were her death guards, their blood emitting a disorienting scent when it touched the air. Those who inhaled it would become as dazed as those soldiers, lost in a fog and completely unaware of what they were doing.
“Back then, the queen of Xiliang tried to steal a city from our Lan Nation. She sent these assassins into our camp, killing thousands of our soldiers.”
“My father had a master alchemist concoct this powder specifically to counteract the scent of blood in their veins. I’ve sprinkled it on them now, and soon they’ll begin to rot from within, dying slowly.”
“… ”
Xizi Ke’er and the people on the ground, hearing Huaduo say this, their expressions turned pale instantly, and they all expressed shock!
Xizi Ke’er immediately pointed at the flower with her finger, her anger reaching its peak, “You…you quickly hand over the antidote!”
The flowers didn’t even glance at Xizi, let alone look at her.
An Xuetang curled her lips into a faint smile, “Duo’er, you went out of the city to find this medicinal powder, didn’t you?”
The flower didn’t have much to hide, she tapped the picture:
“Yes, though I didn’t really enjoy studying medicine back then, my father still gave me the prescription. Red and I left town to find it.”
“After returning, I went to the pharmacy with Hong’er and had them prepare a large amount of this medicinal powder. In the future, when you encounter these Xiliang assassins, sprinkle some of the powder on their wounds.”
An Xuetang nodded slightly, “Duo’er, thank you. On behalf of Yun Xiang, I apologize to you. You did everything for us, but he misunderstood you.”
Huāduǒr wúsuǒ de xiào le, “Méiguānxi de, Yún yī jiù bùguò shì zhizì suǒ zhàng.” **Translation:**”Huādouer smiled indifferently, ‘It’s nothing, Yún yī was just doing his duty.'”
Hearing An Xuetang and Huaduo’er chat as if no one else was around, while her subordinates were all groaning on the ground, such a stark contrast made Xizi Ke’er unable to help but scream out in anger, “Ahhh!”
That piercing sound forced An Xue Tang and Huaduoer to stop their discussion.
Both of them looked at Xizi Ke’er, but Xizi Ke’er glared fiercely at Huaduo’er, roaring, “Bitch, you bitch! Hand over the antidote immediately, or don’t blame this princess for being rude to you!”
The flower bud squinted, a smirk playing on her lips as she watched the other girl bristle. She smiled, but remained silent, finding it a waste of breath to speak to someone like this.
But An Xuetang beside him looked at Xizi Ke’er slowly and said, “I wonder how you plan to be impolite?”
Hearing the sound, Xizi Ke’er finally turned her gaze to An Xue Tang. Looking at An Xue Tang’s “poor” clothing, she didn’t think at this moment that An Xue Tang would be the Princess of Beijang she was about to meet.
Xizi Ke’er gritted her teeth, “Who are you? It’s none of your business here!”
In a short amount of time, An Xuetang had determined that this Xizi Ke’er wasn’t as scheming as she seemed.
In other words, this princess doesn’t seem to be very bright.
An Xuetang crossed her arms, “The princess of Xi Liang… aren’t you the one who keeps saying you want to meet this concubine?”
“…”
Xizi Ke’er was stunned for a moment, reacting after a while, “You… you are the Princess of Bei Jiang?”
How could the Northern Xinjiang Princess possibly dress so poorly?
She didn’t wear any ornaments, not even a hair pin; it was made of wood.
Huāduǒ saw Xīzǐkě’s eyes, she turned her head to look at ?nxuětang and smiled.
“Atang, I have to admit, your current appearance doesn’t resemble the dignified Northern Xinjiang Princess at all. Even if you changed the hairpin on your head, she might believe it.”
An Xuetang curled her lips and subconsciously reached up to touch the hairpin on her head, “This hairpin was personally made for me by my dear Ajing. In my heart, this hairpin is more precious than any other hairpin that looks expensive.”
“I see,” Huāduǒ nodded as if suddenly understanding, “That’s why you always wear it.”
Listening to the two speak, Xizi Ke’er was still a little dubious. She snorted, “You really are the Princess Consort of Beijang?”
“Genuine.”
Xizi Ke’er looked at the flower, then at An Xue Tang. Perhaps she believed seven or eight points in her heart. At this time, she snorted, “You… do you know why this princess came to find you?”
An Xuetang shrugged, “Your Majesty isn’t this a question for you? Why have you come to me?”
Xi Zi Ke’er snorted, “Hmph, do you know that the King of Beijang is now under the emperor’s control in the palace?”
So what?
Seeing An Xue Tang so calm and composed, Xi Zi Ke Er was so angry she could barely speak. She glared at An Xue Tang fiercely, “You…why aren’t you worried at all? You don’t even deserve Bei Jiang Wang!”
“This concubine is unworthy, could it be that you are worthy?”
An Xuetang subconsciously retorted, but to her surprise, Xi Zichen’s face flushed red. She didn’t know what she was thinking about, but she suddenly looked shy.
