Chapter 782 Poisoning
Chu Zhiyuan did not change his appearance, and Fu Zheng also appeared in her original appearance.

Fu Zheng said, “Your Highness, do you really not want the guards from the Princess’s Mansion to follow you secretly?”

Before they set out, Li Yuzhen would send someone to follow them secretly, ready to deal with assassinations at any time.

But was rejected by Chu Zhiyuan.

“It’s too early to send them out now.” Chu Zhiyuan said.

At this time, the demons and monsters might still be verifying and making plans.

It’s impossible to act now.

What’s more, he has great faith in his extrasensory perception and intuition about danger.

My intuition didn’t tell me there was any danger.

“What if?”

“Then run, this is the imperial city.”

Once the masters of the demon clan and the monster clan take action, their identities will be revealed.

The top masters of the imperial city will be able to react and take action immediately.

Fu Zheng asked: “Will they mess around during the wedding?”

“Nine times out of ten.”

“But the defense was the most tight at that time, and it was difficult for them to succeed.”

“That depends on whether they can be ruthless. If others think so, it is actually an opportunity.”

The two chatted as they strolled into the busy street and found a restaurant.

The Wenhua Building is the most prosperous one in the surrounding area.

The four main buildings have triple eaves and are connected to each other.

The colorful flags hang high in the air, bright and eye-catching, fluttering in the wind.

When I got closer, I could hear laughter and the sound of stringed instruments coming from inside the building.

“Your Highness, are we here?” Fu Zheng was very curious about this restaurant.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

Just at this moment, two people came towards us.

Fu Zheng frowned and looked at the man and woman.

It is said that enemies often meet, and it turned out to be Lord Xiao Ming, Fan Yaohui, and Fan Yuxuan.

The brother and sister came alone without any guards or maids.

When they saw Chu Zhiyuan from afar, they all clasped their fists and smiled.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and clasped his fists.

Of course he had already seen the two men, but he was too lazy to avoid them in advance.

“Greetings, Your Highness.” Fan Yaohui said with a smile, “I didn’t expect to meet you by chance.”

Chu Zhiyuan nodded: “It’s indeed a coincidence, Lord Ming is here to eat?”

“Your Highness hasn’t had breakfast either, has he?”

“I was just about to eat here.”

“How about we go together? Let me show my hospitality.”

“Thank you, Lord Ming.” Chu Zhiyuan agreed.

Fan Yuxuan looked at Fu Zheng with a smile: “Miss Fu, what would you like to eat? This Wenhua Restaurant is the most exquisite breakfast restaurant in the imperial city.”

“I don’t mind. It depends on Your Highness.” Fu Zheng said.

She had a very bad impression of Fan Yuxuan.

I think she is a shallow, smart-aleck, and stupid woman, but she has great cultivation skills.

Fan Yuxuan smiled and said, “Then let’s go up first. It’s rare to meet someone like this.”

The group of four went straight to the third floor.

When passing the first floor, the name of Lord Xiao Ming was still heard around.

Chu Zhiyuan glanced at Fan Yaohui.

Fan Yaohui’s face darkened and he snorted, “How despicable!”

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, “There is a reason why these words can be spread.”

Fan Yaohui hurriedly said: “I would never dare to have such a foolish thought!”

Chu Zhiyuan said: “The reason why this news can be spread is not only because you are so powerful, Lord Xiao Ming, but also because too many people dislike me and are jealous of me. The root cause is that they admire His Majesty the Twelfth Prince.”

Fan Yaohui suddenly realized: “That’s right! I’m the shield!”

He was not afraid of Chu Zhiyuan, but he did not want to offend the twelfth princess.

He could see that Li Miaotan thought highly of Chu Zhiyuan.

He judged that it was because of Tianlong Yin.

If I were in his place, I would also value very much someone who could help me activate and improve my blood, and would never allow anyone to make them unhappy.

They sat down in a private room on the third floor. Fan Yuxuan asked Chu Zhiyuan about his preferences, and then skillfully ordered dishes from the waiter.

The layout of the restaurant here is exactly the same as that of the Yujing Dynasty.

They all have a patio in the center with a stage for performances.

People opened their windows or sat on the edge of the patio so they could see what was happening on the stage at a glance.

At this time, there were nine girls on the stage, wearing dark green robes and dancing with swords.

The sword light flashed, light and clear, like a waterfall hanging down.

Chu Zhiyuan turned his head and glanced at Fan Yuxuan.

Fan Yuxuan shook her head: “These are not disciples of my Qingwu Sword Sect.”

Fu Zheng said: “They look quite similar. Their sword techniques are also somewhat similar.”

Fan Yuxuan snorted and said, “How can a disciple of my Sword Sect come here?”

Fu Zheng smiled and said, “I have heard of the Qingwu Sword Sect’s great name for a long time, but it’s a pity that I can’t visit it.”

“It is true that outsiders cannot find our sect.” Fan Yuxuan said with a smile: “But if Your Highness wants to visit, our sect can send someone to bring you in.”

Chu Zhiyuan said: “I will definitely visit you when I have the chance.”

Fan Yuxuan said: “Everyone in our clan will definitely welcome Your Highness.”

At this time, the food was served and filled the table.

A variety of side dishes and snacks, with a fragrant aroma.

“Your Highness, please.” Fan Yuxuan said with a smile, “See if what I want is to your liking.”

Chu Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows.

Fan Yuxuan was startled: “Not to your liking?”

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and said, “It’s poisoned.”

“Impossible?” Fan Yuxuan was stunned: “This is Wenhua Building!”

Chu Zhiyuan pointed at a plate of snow-white pastries, then at a plate of crystal clear aspic, and shook his head, saying, “These two plates are fine.”

Fan Yuxuan looked at the snacks on the table in surprise, then looked at Chu Zhiyuan, and then at her eldest brother Fan Yaohui.

Fan Yaohui frowned, reached out to pick up a delicate flower-shaped dessert and brought it to his mouth.

He put his nose forward and sniffed it, then stuck out his tongue and licked it gently.

He seemed to be thinking about something, sensing the changes carefully, and finally shook his head.

There’s nothing unusual.

Chu Zhiyuan said: “It should be a combination of poisons. Eating one of them alone is not poisonous.”

“Your Highness, who wants to harm us?” Fan Yuxuan asked, “It seems that they don’t recognize you, Your Highness?”

Chu Zhiyuan said: “That is aimed at Lord Xiaoming.”

Fan Yaohui snorted and said, “There are indeed many people who want to kill me. Is it really poisonous?”

Chu Zhiyuan said: “Why not try two more? You should eat at least three to get poisoned.”

Fan Yaohui thought about it, then picked up two more pieces of dessert and licked each of them a little.

After a moment, his expression changed slightly.

His tongue darted out, already dark, and his face darkened rapidly.

“Brother?!”

Fan Yuxuan was startled and quickly took out a jade bottle from her sleeve, poured out a snow-white pill and stuffed it into his mouth.

After taking the pill, his complexion did not change, it was still dark, as if covered with a layer of soot.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

This poison is indeed troublesome. It seems that Fan Yuxuan’s detoxification pills cannot cure it.

“Brother!” Fan Yuxuan was a little panicked when she saw this: “Is it serious?”

“…” Fan Yaohui pointed at his throat and was unable to speak.

He felt his entire face and mouth were numb, he had lost control and couldn’t speak.

Chu Zhiyuan said: “Don’t use your power. The more you use your power, the deeper the poison will be.”

He could see clearly the flow of Fan Yaohui’s true energy, but the black energy actually merged with the true energy.

The faster the true energy, the faster the poison spreads.

This dark poison can actually replicate and multiply on its own, quickly growing more numerous and stronger in the body.

He was astonished, having never seen such a powerful and strange poison.

Is this poison meant for myself or for Lord Xiao Ming?

“Brother, don’t use your power!” Fan Yuxuan said hurriedly: “I’ll go find His Highness, there will be a better detoxification pill!”

Fan Yaohui signaled with his eyes that it was not necessary and not to disturb the Third Prince.

But Fan Yuxuan couldn’t concentrate on it and immediately stood up and rushed out.
