Being the King of War's Smart Wife
The Guan Shu Challenge
Li Chang Su's arrival to the palace at this time shocked the Empress. He had originally wanted to invite him but the other party had already arrived early.
Guan Shu was also curious about this girl named Li Chang Su. He heard people talking about how beautiful and the girl and the third prince were also very handsome.
The empress let the eunuch invite her in.
Before long, an eighteen-year-old girl walked in, wearing a light blue dress and an elegant hairstyle. Her face was smeared with thin powder, blush and also fresh pale cherry red lipstick.
His arrival took the Empress by surprise. After all, he had not seen the girl for three years since training in the military barracks with Mu Xianzhai.
Unexpectedly, the girl would grow beautiful without any disability at all. Is he still human?
Unfortunately, Li Chang Su did not intend to pay his respects to the Empress or Guan Shu.
"The status of the third prince has been known to many people including by the emperor. I hope the Empress doesn't mind if this princess doesn't greet," Li Chang Su said very kindly and friendly.
But in the Empress's eyes, it was a kind of unintentional humiliation. Mu Xianzhai was like the emperor in this country and had brought glory. Not to mention that it has just now helped the world overcome the mutated black beast, the conditions are different.
Although the Empress was unhappy in her heart, she did not underestimate the girl. His smile was a little stiff but still nodded.
"No ... Its alright. The third son has worked hard." The empress gritted her teeth silently.
Wait until her son becomes emperor, this girl will not be able to escape her hands.
"What made Princess Xian come here? Shouldn't it be to mince words with us?" Guan Shu had never considered a daughter to Li Chang Su. He has a lot of confidence in his abilities.
"Miss Guan is indeed the son of the king of poisons. This reputation is indeed a match," Li Chang Su said only shaking his head.
"You—" Guan Shu seemed to realize there was something in the girl's words.
"I'm not wrong. You are the son of the poison king of the Poison Valley. I hear you like to experiment with poisons. I don't know how many people have been victims. Even the palace people were not in Miss Guan's eyes," explained Li Chang Su. He looked for a seat himself without noticing that the expressions of the two women changed slightly.
"What does Princess Xian mean?" Guan Shu squinted. The girl is not as simple as it looks. It seemed that he had underestimated his sight.
Looking at the golden dragon bracelet on the girl's left wrist, Guan Shu felt something strange. That golden dragon bracelet emitted an aura capable of suppressing the poison in his body.
"Miss Guan should know better what I mean. The emperor, the retired emperor, the queen mother even the daughter of Mu Ying if it did not escape Miss Guan's target of trying poison," Li Chang Su said.
Guan Shu felt that something was clogging his throat but could not say a word. How could Li Chang Su know if the emperor and the other palace families had been poisoned?
Even the Empress herself did not know about the poisoning of the retired emperor or the queen mother.
But Li Chang Su did not stop there. He pretended to have almost forgotten something and looked at the Empress.
"Oh, the Empress' body is also being unkind at the moment. What poison was Miss Guan given?" tanyakanya.
"Don't talk nonsense!" Guan Shu interrupted him immediately.
"What poison? How could my body have poison?" The empress did not believe Li Chang Su's words.
His body is healthy, except a little late waking up because last night sleep a little late. Therefore, today he was not too excited.
However Li Chang Su said that his body was poisoned and still by Guan Shu. He doesn't believe. There was no way Guan Shu would do such a thing to him.
"Princess Xian should not provoke our relationship. Princess Xian also had nothing to worry about. After I became the next empress, Princess Xian was able to gain another glory for having contributed to saving the world from mutated black beasts," explained Guan Shu immediately turning his attention.
Do not let the Empress be thought of by the problem of poison whose effects have not been seen. Guan Shu did not want his plan to fail.
Fortunately Li Chang Su also cooperated with Guan Shu's words. But his smile looked mysterious and playful as if he was waiting for a joke.
He rose from his seat and intended to leave the Imperial Palace. Unfortunately, Guan Shu did not let him go but challenged him.
"I heard that Princess Xian's ability to treat people is extraordinary. It shouldn't be hard to neutralize poison, right?" guan Shu asked with a disdainful look under his eyes.
"Oh, of course. Does Miss Guan want to compare her to this Princess. This princess is also not only good at treating, but also killing people," Li Chang Su said casually.
"A snob!" The empress disliked Li Chang Su's last sentence and looked at him hatefully.
"Why? The queen doesn't believe it? As a person who can cure diseases, it is of course very easy to give death. Isn't that Miss Guan?" Li Chang Su looked at Guan Shu who was still standing rather awkwardly near the Empress.
"Since Miss Guan has invited, this Princess will naturally participate. What does Miss Guan want to compare to? Ah, I hope it's not for the poison scraper internal organs." Li Chang Su said again and nodded confidently.
"..." - ".Guan Shu was a little pale.
Li Chang Su knew about the internal organ scraper poison. The thing is, the poison was given to Emperor Mu and Mu Ying. For the poison that was in the Empress' body, it was slightly different. But the effect will not be seen in a few days.
Unfortunately, it had been almost five days since the poison he had planted in the Empress' body began to take effect. It seemed that the progress of the poison he made was still slow.
Guan Shu looked at Li Chang Su with ruthlessness behind her gentle smile. He clenched both hands behind his wide sleeves and had a plan in his heart.
"Then, let's compare whose poison is better. I will give Princess Xian poison and you will have to make your own antidote before the poison spreads throughout the body. And so do I" proposes Guan Shu.
Li Chang Su raised next to his brows and nodded in the end. "No problem."
The girl wanted to know what kind of poison Guan Shu would release.
They go to a larger yard to get some fresh air. The Queen was also present as a witness. Although he wanted to kill Li Chang Su here with Guan Shu's poison, but Mu Xianzhai as the war king was not something that could be provoked at will.
If the girl had only come home with a minor injury, Mu Xianzhai would not have bothered her too much. After all, the girl also agreed to compare poison abilities and whose antidote was better.
Guan Shu and Li Chang Su released the mainstay poison. The rule in comparing these poisons is only one, the dose is not to the point of making a death. At the very least, the effect could only make the body sick without inviting death.
"Miss Guan, good luck," said Li Chang Su directly putting a suspicious black pill on the table.
