The Princess Of 100 Talents
Chapter #60

That afternoon Madam Xia accompanied Ming Yu who was still unconscious, as master and mistress Xiao were talking to prince Rong and Lin Yao in the pavilion hall.

"What! The three of them who had poisoned Ming Yu?" Said mister Xiao in surprise, after prince Rong told him who had poisoned young master Xiao.

"True mister Xiao, one of my personal bodyguards has been looking into this for two days. And he says it all, so I'm talking about this with you."

"They can't be forgiven."

"I see, they wouldn't be so afraid if the emperor handled this, therefore I want to cooperate with mister Xiao to avenge them."

"Okay, I understand. Thank you for the help of your highness Prince Rong."

"It's my duty as one of the royal members, I don't want to see the people of this Chao country hostile and killing each other. Even though they are from the nobility."

Master and madam Xiao nodded.

"Does his Majesty know who gave them the poison?" Said Lin Yao who had just listened.

"Not yet, he's still trying to figure out who that person is."

Lin Yao nodded.

"Alright, I should discuss this with the big Xiao family. They must have known from the noble family which three people were." Said mister Xiao.

"Well, if you need help, you can tell me."

"Okay, thank your majesty."

Master and mistress Xiao saluted prince Rong, after which they exited the pavilion hall.

Seeing that master and mistress Xiao had come out, prince Rong looked at Lin Yao.

"Your majesty must have wanted to ask me about the poison that was on Ming Yu's body." Said Lin Yao who had realized that.

"Yes, so tell me. How do you know that rare and deadly poison, Lin'er."

"Actually, the poison is very easy to make, your majesty. If people did not know about poison, they would think that poison was difficult to find because it was difficult to make. But in reality it was very easy, even all the ingredients to make it were inside my drugstore."

Prince Rong was slightly surprised to hear Lin Yao's explanation.

"Then, can you make it?"

"Your majesty, you must still remember if I ever made poison when this country was at war with the country of Yu."

"Right, I still remember it."

"Actually making poison is more difficult, compared to the poison of the night flower on Ming Yu's body. Even the poison I made could not be treated by anyone else, other than myself."

"So you said, the poison you made in the war. Is it a more dangerous and deadly poison?"

"Right, though the poison of the night flower is also a dangerous poison. But the poison I made was 10 times more dangerous."

Prince Rong could only nod.

"Then my empress, what else do I not know about you? I need you to tell me everything." Prince Rong.

"Your Majesty, don't you know much about me? But I only know if you are a god of war, who has a nature so cold and vindictive."

Prince Rong smiled, "So, do you want to know how I am?"

Prince Rong nodded.

"Over this time of my life I have always been on the battlefield, I know everything about the news circulating in the capital. Although I very rarely return to the palace, and I also hear from the crown prince and the 3rd prince, if not a few from the prime who want to marry their daughter to me."

"Then, why didn't his highness marry one of the prime ministers' children?"

Prince Rong looked at Lin Yao and grabbed his hand.

"Empress, I am looking for a woman who is able to stand beside me. Doesn't make himself arrogant after marrying me, and also has a kind and humble nature."

Lin Yao was silent.

"Because of that, I don't care what people have to say about you. Because I chose you, and believe that if you can stand with me, live this life with me with confidence and humility. Liu Lin Yao, you are the woman I seek."

Lin Yao nodded, "Thank you Your Excellency."

Prince Rong looked at Lin Yao fixedly, as if he wanted to immediately have the woman who had made him say a little bit more about her.

"I'm sorry, because your Majesty must be engaged in this matter, in the midst of the glorious busyness of preparing for our marriage."

"No, you don't have to apologize. This is all beyond our expectations, and I have also said that young master Xiao is my brother-in-law. Because he has taken you as his sister."

Lin Yao nodded, "Thank you Your Excellency."

Prince Rong smiled at Lin Yao.

...----------------...

Braaaaac!

"Less4jar! That woman dares to do that to you and bring Xiao Ming Yu who is about to die." Said one of the noble men, inside one of the rooms in the house as Lin Yao treated young master Xiao.

"I also didn't expect that if she was indeed a woman who was very smart in medicine, I thought that she would only be able to make Brother Ming aware, but could not save him. So we can make that woman a scapegoat."

"Bod0h basic! You've heard that woman is very talented and smart in medicine. You shouldn't have come to him and brought him here."

"Sorry, I don't know if it's going to be like this."

"Here you go, we have to bring that woman here and make her shut up." Said another noble man.

"Right, I'm gonna have someone come to the woman's drugstore and force her here."

The other two noble family children nodded, they could not believe that the woman who had saved young master Xiao would survive the grasp of their hands.

However they do not realize, if their actions will make their lives on the verge of death. For having touched the limits of patience of a Chao country's war god.

"I'll order my men to do just that, and you. Meet the man who gave you the poison, ask him for the same poison to paralyze the woman."

"Good."

The three noble children then walked out of the house where young master Xiao was saved by Lin Yao.

Xiao Li who saw and heard what they were planning, from behind the tree beside the room nodded.

"I will follow where the woman went, to find out the man who had given her the poison. After that I will return to report everything to his highness prince Rong." Xiao Li said slowly.

Xiao Li immediately went from the tree to follow where the noble lady went.
