The road to seizing the throne is fraught with danger, but Prince Qi did not intend to put every brother to death. What he wanted was the throne, not lives.

  "Prince Qi, do you think those history books and classics were written in vain? As a prince, you must always remember that if you want to ascend to that position, you have to step on others; if you don't want to be stepped on by others."

  The status that King Qi has today is inseparable from the behind-the-scenes planning of Ning Taifei and the strong support of the Ning Guo Gongfu, so when Ning Taifei speaks to King Qi, she always unconsciously takes a condescending attitude, which makes King Qi very uncomfortable.

  However, Prince Qi also knew that he couldn't afford to fall out with Empress Ning and the Ningguo Duke's estate for now, so he had to swallow his anger.

  "The princess consort has instructed as such." King Qi's attitude was humble, and no one could see how annoyed he was at this moment. "I will go take care of it now."

  King Qi was dissatisfied with Empress Dowager Ning and also understood that she did it to make his ascension to the throne smoother.

  They are just using each other for their own purposes, and as long as they can achieve their goals, they will endure humiliation and hardship.

  The two doctors of Ningguo Gongfu who followed Ning Taifei back to Xiyang City were specially invited from Miaojiang when Ning Taifei was in the Tai Temple, and they were particularly skilled at making poison. They were brought back to Xiyang City in order to increase the chances of Qi Wang's succession, but also to counter Zhu Yunyan.

  Although there are many princes competing for the throne at present, Zhu Yunyan is not outstanding among them. However, with old grievances and new hatreds combined, Ning Taifei was eager to resolve the issue of Zhu Yunyan first.

  Two doctors, both around thirty years old, one named Zhang Qi and the other Peng Luo, were fellow disciples. Empress Ning thought it was her sincerity that brought them from afar in Miao territory, but in fact they were driven out by their master because they could not tolerate his harassment.

  However, the prosperity of Xiyang City also broadened the brothers' horizons. They saw many things they had never seen before and wanted to see and play with even more. As a result, they owed favors to Ning Taifei and Ning Guo Gongfu, so they took out the Feihua Order as a favor.

  As for the antidote, it was Ning Taifei's worry that Feihua Ling might not achieve its purpose, so she set up another one.

  King Qi swaggered into Rui Wang's mansion with Zhang Qipeng and Lu Shixiong.

  It was a foregone conclusion. Zhu Yunyan naturally welcomed every friend and enemy who came to his doorstep. The arrival of the King of Qi had been expected by everyone.

  "Yun Yan, I heard that you've been poisoned again in the summer. Coincidentally, I've recently befriended two incredibly skilled divine physicians, so I'll invite them over to see if they can help you."

  The expression and tone of the King of Qi were full of concern for Zhu Yunyan and Shen Youxia, if he didn't know about the cruelty behind the fight for the throne, Zhu Yunyan would really believe in the "sincerity" of this good brother.

  "Good."

  Zhu Yunyan was just a cold and quiet person, her expressionless response to the King of Qi didn't seem to faze him either, after all he had already gotten used to it.

  However, when entering Shen Youxia's room, everyone was blocked by Dong Zhi at the door.

  "Except for Prince Ruì and the Grand Tutor, no one else is allowed in."

  People from the Dingguo Marquis's residence, how could they possibly put the Qi King in their eyes? If Shen Youxia hadn't married Zhu Yunyan, the Rui King wouldn't have been taken seriously either.

  The King of Qi was so angry that he almost vomited blood. Isn't this just a way of not letting him in? Indeed, it's the good servant of Rui Wang Fu!
