Chapter 1545: Chapter 1545: Unless He… Dies!
“You’re going to refine more?”
Qian Jiyun furrowed his brow, feeling somewhat worried.
All this medicinal powder, it’s all just refined by An Jiuyue, right? He was concerned that her body couldn’t take it.
Although she said that refining medicinal pills was beneficial for her body, it was nevertheless a great strain, and he couldn’t help but worry. The first time she had refined, he stood by to guard her.
“There is a lot of Half Puppet Poison.” An Jiuyue said just this one sentence.
“Sigh.”
Qian Jiyun let out a heavy sigh.
The Luoyang-Shao family really did harm people deeply, not to mention the old emperor, he must never be allowed to harm anyone ever again.
“Eldest Brother Yan, about the emperor…”
“Don’t even think about coming out again.”
Eldest Brother Yan finished his sentence, saying what was in his own mind.
Before, there was a thought that the old emperor might be capable of repentance, but now, he had no such hopes, and directly imprisoned the man, cutting off all outside contact.
“From now on, Yunfu Hall will be the only place he can move around. If he wants to leave, the only way is if he… dies!”
Upon hearing his words, everyone fell silent. Lastly, Qian Jiyun shook his head. In the capital, how many were not disappointed with the old emperor.
Perhaps it wasn’t just disappointment, but hatred.
So many innocent people had died at the hands of the old emperor, and yet those people had no idea who had killed their loved ones. If they did know, the capital would be turned upside down.
After discussing the Half Puppet Poison matter a little longer, Eldest Brother Yan and the others left.
With nothing else to do, An Jiuyue went back to refining medicinal pills and medicinal powders, while Qian Jiyun went to the kitchen to cook for An Jiuyue.
In half an hour, the servants brought over the food he had made. Seeing that An Jiuyue was still refining, Qian Jiyun instructed the servants to put down the dishes and then waited at her side.
He knew it wouldn’t take long for her to refine a Furnace Elixir, and the food wouldn’t get cold.
Sure enough, it wasn’t long before a Furnace Elixir was successfully refined.
“You can eat now, come wash your hands.”
“Mm.”
An Jiuyue gave a soft acknowledgment.
“I’m running out of medicinal herbs here. I’ll write a prescription later, see if you can get all the herbs on the list.”
She was still not at ease. With so many Half Puppet Poisons, what if the old emperor had hidden some and they were not in Daqing Kingdom later? Wouldn’t these people die?
The thing that the old emperor had done was truly terrifying.
If it were from her perspective, for such a menace, she would definitely act directly to eliminate it.
“Okay.”
Qian Jiyun responded and, watching her wash her hands, pa.s.sed her a towel to dry them with.
“You don’t need to work so hard either, Eldest Brother Yan and the others will handle it.”
As long as they could track down those people, everything could be resolved. However, the old emperor’s move was quite ruthless: none of the people who knew about the Half Puppet Poison had been left in the palace, they had all gone out.
Thus, even if they wanted to find clues and follow them up, they could find nothing.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have to resort to lying in wait, dealing with the problem only after the poison had been administered.
But just capturing one person this time would let them know how much more Half Puppet Poison was waiting for them.
“I know.”
An Jiuyue could not be unaware; she was clear in her mind.
But clarity aside, it did not mean she could stop worrying. Half Puppet Poison was indeed a bit terrifying.
“I’m still not at ease. Jiyun, send someone with the antidote powder to the Xia family to have a look, and if nothing happens by dawn tomorrow, then come back.”
