Hai Yan swallowed his saliva. He was obviously unwilling.

"This woman is a sacrifice." Hai Shi added.

Hearing the two words "sacrifice", Hai Yan's face changed drastically. He immediately shook off the hand that was supporting Yao Ziyan, as though she was some ferocious beast that would die if he touched her.

The short Hai Shi laughed at him, "I told you before that you didn't want to listen, so you wanted to hear the truth."

He glared at Ye Zichen fiercely, "Why didn't you say so earlier!"

Sacrifice to create an unprecedented weapon. That was Khan's greatest plan. It was an unparalleled honor to be offered as a sacrifice, but whoever touched it would be out of luck. This was the poison that filled their bodies.

The tall Hai Yan broke out in a cold sweat. If that woman did not stop him, wouldn't he be right now?

He shuddered and tactfully retreated behind Feng Yuting.

Feng Yuting took two steps forward, carefully examined the cyan and purple on Yao Ziyan's face, and used a silver needle to bleed black out from her mouth and nose. She picked out two or three white colored worms and looked closely.

After a long while, she smiled in satisfaction, "The poison in this woman's body has fused better than I had expected. You can go and inform the others that the offerings in the capital are ready to be harvested. "

"Yes, Tower Lord!" The two brothers, Hai Shi and Hai Yan, were wild with joy when they heard this news. They solemnly saluted and then solemnly walked out. However, no matter how solemn and solemn their expressions were, they could not conceal the ecstasy in their eyes that was filled with greed.

It was as though something extremely good was about to happen.

Feng Yuting looked at the two brothers, then turned to look at Yao Ziyan, a cold smile on her face.

"Do you really think that the Red Sleeve House opened up in the capital of Da Xia city all these years to buy rouge powder, just so that it could earn money? This Seat will let you all see what it is like for Western Xia City to become a dead city! "

She had been planning this for more than twenty years. She had put in a lot of effort to wait for this day.

Every box of cosmetics sold in the Cigarette Water Pavilion were all unique.

Which of the concubines of those noble dukes' concubines did not buy rouge powder in Cigarette Water Pavilion? It had to be known that in the past ten years, Cigarette Water Pavilion's rouge had become a symbol of a woman's identity.

A cold smile hung on her seductive face, causing others to shiver just by looking at her.

Only when the guards sealed up the mansion and prepared to confiscate its property did they realize that the wealth of the Wei Mansion had already far surpassed the treasury.

In the storehouse of the Wei Duke Manor, there were countless treasures and rare treasures, any one of them was worth a city. Even the treasury in the inner court of the imperial palace was about to feel inferior.

After all these years, it went without saying how and how much the King of Wei, Yuwen Chenglian, had accumulated.

Yu Lin Guards searched the entire city for a whole day, and even when they posted their warrant to capture Yuwen Chenglian, they were still unable to find him in the capital. Beijing Zhaoyin was also unable to find him. However, this did not affect the process of the trial of the Ministry of Justice, the marble temple and the three Divisions of Imperial History.

The three principals of the Ministry of Justice, marble temple and the historic station jointly reviewed all the accounts of the past ten years in the Wei Wang Manor, as well as Yuwen Chenglian's correspondence with the various officials. With this investigation, he had discovered many murder cases, including the one caused by the assassination attempt of the previous Department of the Civil Service President Xiao Hanwen and his family, which was also the doing of Yuwen Chenglian.

Back then, when the previous Wei Wangfei had just died, the Duke of Wei couldn't wait to take this wangfei and even wanted to kill his father-in-law. One could imagine how crazy Yuwen Chenglian was.

For the next three days, Yuwen Chenglian's whereabouts were still unknown. It was as if he had disappeared into thin air, and even if the Yu Lin Guards and Patrol Unit were to search the entire city, they would not be able to find any trace of him.

The case of the king of Wei involved a wide range of things, and half of the courtiers and courtiers were involved. The officials involved, including the Minister of War, the Minister of Revenue, the Minister of the Department of the Civil Service, the Assistant Ministers from various departments, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Justice were also involved.

The mastermind had fled, but the accomplice had not enough time to escape. The prison of the Board of Justice's marble temple was already filled with people. For the past few days, the capital city had been in an uproar.

All of a sudden, the capital was in a state of turmoil, as if a thunderstorm was brewing in the mountains.

While the chaos outside the palace was unfolding, the imperial harem was quiet.

Xiao Ruyue rested for a moment, when she woke up, she saw a shadow flash in from outside. She rubbed her eyes and took a closer look, then suddenly fell into Yuwen He's eyes that were as deep as the ocean.

These two eyes were as black as ink, and it was as if they were kneading ten thousand stars. They were dazzling and incomparably gentle.

"Lu Yi said that you just went to sleep, so why aren't you sleeping much?"

Xiao Ruyue supported herself and wanted to sit up, but she moved even faster, and pulled her out of the bed first. She hugged her in her arms, and refused to let go.

"Stop messing around, Tian'er, it's hot." Xiao Ruyue pouted and rolled her eyes at him.

He unwillingly let go of her now, but he only allowed Xiao Ruyue to leave his embrace and sit next to him.

He really didn't mind the heat.

"Did you not sleep because you knew I was coming back?" Yuwen He leaned close to her ear and breathed out hot air, his pair of large palms were dishonest, and he received a solid slap from Xiao Ruyue, "Stop messing around, if you have something to say, say it."

It had the intention of "If you touch randomly again, I won't cripple your claws".

"Hm, it's no big deal."

Seeing that, retracted his claws, but was not honest at all, as if he was not satisfied yet. Xiao Ruyue grumpily shifted to the side, and he followed along. The empress was so angry that she simply walked over to the soft couch.

He even declared righteously, "Don't come over, just sit there!"

A certain lord's face was full of grievance.

The Empress held her forehead. "Yuwen He didn't take any medicine today?

She looked towards the door. As expected, Yin Lin, Lu Yi, Fang Weiyong and the rest were all outside, no one came in, even Qing Qing who had always been invisible also went somewhere.

"Speak. Does His Majesty have anything particularly important to tell me?" Xiao Ruyue sat modestly, and a smile hung on the corners of his mouth.

"It's nothing, I just want to say something …"

"Don't move, just sit there and talk."

When Yuwen He wanted to say these words, he immediately ordered them to be prohibited, not giving him even the slightest chance.

"Yes." The king rubbed his nose and sat down dejectedly. Deception had already been seen through, what else could he do?

He thought for a moment, as if he finally thought of the words, raised his head, and stared at Xiao Ruyue, "It was not a big matter, it was a small matter. Don't you dare get annoyed. "

Xiao Ruyue was confused.

He then called out: "Yin Lin, bring the medicine in."

With that said, Yin Lin walked in with the medicine jar and white jade bowl in hand.

"Fetal medicine." Yuwen He smiled to please her.

Xiao Ruyue, "…"

Xiao Ruyue clenched her teeth, and resisted the urge to slap him to death. Glancing at Yin Lin, Yin Lin tactfully poured the medicine out and held it out.

"Empress, please use it."

"Why is this medicine getting more and more bitter?" Xiao Ruyue smelled the medicine's scent and frowned.

Yin Lin did not reply, she thought to herself, the previous medicine was prescribed by the Imperial Physician Fang, and now this medicine was prescribed by the Miss Liangqiu, Empress, don't you yourself understand its own basics? I don't know how to make it worse.

Xiao Ruyue did not speak further. With a puff, she took a small gulp and drank it all down.

As the medicine juice went down her throat, she felt bitter in her stomach and intestines.

She handed the bowl over to Yin Lin, but saw that Yuwen He was frowning as though he was thinking about something.

He didn't know when he was standing three steps away from her, but it seemed as if he was even more upset than she was after seeing her endure the pain and drink the medicine. Normally, he would laugh at her, "You're such a grown man, why are you afraid of suffering? Come, eat two more candied fruits. " Then he threw her two candied fruits.

Yet, today, he …

Xiao Ruyue frowned again.

Yin Lin's hands and feet were nimble, she had already packed her things and left.

"Is there still no news of Yuwen Chenglian and Yao Ziyan?" Xiao Ruyue did not ask him why he was going through so much trouble, and went straight to the point.

Yuwen He shook his head, walked to her side and sat down, "Not yet. "But it's going to be soon. There's no rush." He was still smiling when he said that.

But Xiao Ruyue didn't think so.

The patrolling camp and the guards searched the entire city for three days in a row, but they could not find any trace of Yuwen Chenglian. Even when the people of Herba Phoenixis came out, they could not find any hiding spot of Yuwen Chenglian.

To be able to cause the Herba Phoenixis to be unable to find a place, it could only mean that there was someone hiding behind Yuwen Chenglian, who was supporting him. And it was very likely that Quicksand was the organization that was taking him in.

Even Yao Ziyan's whereabouts were still unknown, and it was unknown whether she had hidden herself or not. Feng Yuting left the palace three days ago and returned again very quickly. She said that she had returned to the Inn to arrange some things, and everyone watched as she went in and out without any flaws.

She was not worried about how big of a storm Yuwen Chenglian and Yao Ziyan would cause, she was just afraid that the "Flowing Sand" behind Yuwen Chenglian was not simple. She was more afraid that Yao Ziyan would be poisoned, and that Feng Yuting would be as crazy as Big Sister Ya Yin said she would be.

Once that item was grown, it would no longer be as simple as being highly toxic. It was as if it would wipe out all life.

"Yue Er."

Just as Xiao Ruyue was deep in thought, there was already another person in the room.

"Sister Ya Yin, why are you here as well?" Xiao Ruyue's brows furrowed even more tightly.

Liangqiu Yayin laughed, but this smile was different from her usual bland smile, it seemed to have a deeper meaning, "Yue'er, do you still remember how Cigarette Water Pavilion appeared in Da Xia?"

Xiao Ruyue stared blankly, she did not understand why she had asked that at the moment, but she still replied him, "The creation of the Cigarette Water Pavilion was more than ten years ago. It was a stronghold the Red Sleeve House set up in the capital of Da Xia Empire, wasn't it?"

Liangqiu Yayin nodded heavily, his expression becoming much more serious, "Yes, but neither is it."

It was rare for Xiao Ruyue to see her serious expression, her intuition said that something big had happened. She quickly asked, "What's going on?"

"There's something wrong with the rouge and cosmetic powder that Red Sleeve House has sold over the years!" Liangqiu Yayin gritted her teeth and said, "I also just discovered that the flowers Red Sleeve House uses to make cosmetics are all specially cultivated by Red Sleeve House. These flowers themselves are the parasite."
