34 The Death Of Fourth Madam (2/2)

”What type of poison is it?” He questioned roughly.

”This servant believes it's a poison from our southern countries...that is all I know. I am unable to give you the exact name.” The doctor replied humbly.

At this point upon hearing the words of the doctor, the fourth madam couldn't breathe properly. Her pupils shook violently, and she felt hazy.

She had come from a southern country.

None of the other concubines came from there, but her.

After living in an environment like this for so long, so how could she not know what was happening.

Her body slumped back in defeat. Her fingers loosened their grip on the general's hems as she came face to face with reality. There was no way out for her, none at all. It didn't matter if she screamed, cried, or even begged; she would only push herself closer to death. Her heart dropped as she recounted everything that happened.

She had only brought out her particular poison because she was confident about killing Hongyue. Who knew, it would be used against her in the same matter?

The whole scheme was so well planned out; the fourth madam couldn't help but silver in fear. Just who was the enemy?

How did they get their hands on her poison?

Her confidence was breaking into tiny pieces as she threw back her head and laughed. It didn't matter anymore, after all, she knew the type of person the general was all too well.

She won't live past today.

Even so, she wasn't willing to die so off so quickly. If she was going to leave today, she was going to bring him with her. The fourth madam was starting chanting a spell, her eyes reddening. The air began to swirl violently upon hearing her chant.

While Hongyue didn't understand the spell, she at least knew what the fourth madam's intention was. The general couldn't die yet; she still hasn't tortured him enough.

She hurried forward to shove the madam away from the general. The two bodies collided and rolled to a heap, the summoned air shattered as the user was distracted. The general walked to the fourth madam unsteadily. He stared down at her with beady eyes.

The general's heart chilled. So the fourth concubine did want to kill him...while he heard about the origin of the poison, he still held a tiny strand of disbelief. However seeing her summon such a vast amount of power to kill him, he truly believed that she was out to kill him all along now. His brain spun.

Just how many more were like her, out there waiting for him to die?

General Wei's heart was quickly filled with unease; he swiftly grabbed his sword and plunged it into the heart of the fourth madam. The thick red liquid gushed out, coloring the ground dark red.The blood sprayed about and covered Hongyue who had been only inches away. She looked up at the general, indeed a cruel man she thought.

Seeing the life drained out of the fourth madam's body, the general calmed down. He leaned forward to pick Hongyue up from the dead body. He would never touch this daughter of his if it were before. However, she saved him twice.

So he trusted her now.

He had pretended to be a good father to her for so many years, Hongyue must feel indebted to him.

After all, she was dumb and innocent, both easy to control and very loyal.

What can a stupid person do to hurt him anyway?
