1062 Your Repayment

Xue Fanxin got someone to vacate all the courtyards in the Lord’s Estate. Anyone who had drunk the antidote could enter and rest, making it convenient for them to stay and observe the situation. This way, they could also protect their safety.

The people who came to seek the antidote were all commoners at the bottom. They had already reached a dead end and had no way out, so they all listened to the Ninth Lord’s Estate’s arrangements and only hoped to obtain a chance of survival here.

Those who stayed in the Lord’s Estate could obtain basic care even if they sat on the ground. There was food and drinks, and those who were not in good health could even be covered with bedding.

Actually, the Lord’s Estate was not cold. It was as if it was bathed in sunlight and was very warm, so even if one sat on the ground, they would not feel cold.

Heilong did as Xue Fanxin instructed and captured all the people the Empress had sent to release the poison. Then, he escorted them to her.

“Your Highness, these are all people sent by the Empress to poison the others.”

There were many ordinary people at the event location who had just taken the antidote. Hearing Heilong’s words, they were all stunned, and the anger and hatred in their hearts became stronger and stronger.

They were already in such a miserable state, struggling arduously to survive. The Ninth Lord’s Estate was their only way out, but the Empress still wanted to block their only way out. How could they not be angry and hate her?

How could such a ruthless person be worthy of being the mother of an empire?

“Very good.” Xue Fanxin scanned those people carefully and moved her fingers secretly. Then, she said, “Throw them all to the Empress’s chamber, right in front of her.”

“Yes.” Heilong did not ask further. He did as Xue Fanxin instructed and personally led these people into the palace. Then, he threw them into the Empress’s chamber directly in front of her.

The Empress was waiting in her chamber as usual for the spies to return and report the news. Suddenly, a few people had been ruthlessly thrown into her chamber, and they were her own people, scaring her quite badly.

She recognized these people. They should be the people she had sent to release the poison.

But why had they been thrown into her bedroom?

Just as the Empress was puzzled and a little panicked, a loud voice sounded from outside the house. “Your Majesty, this is a gift from the Ninth Imperial Consort to you. Please accept it.”

The Empress was already a little panicked. When she heard the voice coming from outside, she panicked even more and shouted anxiously, “Guards, guards, come quick, guards.”

The Second Prince also heard the shout and hurriedly ran over. “Mother, what happened? What gift was given from the Ninth Imperial Consort?”

“Xue Fanxin, you’re going too far.” The Empress did not answer her son’s question. Instead, she flared up and knocked the tea set on the table to the ground. She said angrily, “Xue Fanxin, since you have a death wish, I’ll fulfill your wish. I’ll definitely make you die without a burial place.”

“Mother, what has Xue Fanxin done now?”

“She threw all the people I sent to release poison back.” The more the Empress thought about it, the angrier she became. She was so angry that her eyes were filled with killing intent.

Although she had not seen Xue Fanxin, the two of them had been fighting since yesterday.

Although it was only the two women fighting, everything rode on this battle. If she lost, she would lose completely.

Hence, she could not lose. She could not lose. Even if she had to hurt herself, she had to win against Xue Fanxin.

The Empress was only concerned about being angry and thinking of a way to deal with Xue Fanxin, so she did not notice anything wrong with the people who had been thrown into the room. She only noticed something strange when the palace maids and eunuchs in the room collapsed.

“What’s going on?”

At this moment, the few people who had been thrown inside were lying on the ground crying out in pain, emitting an unpleasant stench.

“Mother, it’s the plague poison. They’ve been infected with the plague poison.” The Second Prince noticed the situation and hurriedly dealt with it. “Quick, quick, carry these people out and burn them.”

After the Second Prince dealt with it, the Empress did not deal with it anymore. She was worried that she had been poisoned, so she took out the antidote and took it. At the same time, she gave her son an antidote.

This Xue Fanxin was even more difficult to deal with than she had imagined.
