Chapter 5 — Listening to the Voice of the Tyrant's Heart, I Know He Loves His Wife

Tieu Hao's momentum exploded, his swordsmanship suddenly became fierce like a crazy dragon. In just a blink of an eye, the enemy fell to the ground. The rest, seeing the unfavorable situation, attempted to retreat.

“Not one person is left out.” He coldly ordered.

The security guard immediately rushed up. The battle is over. Tieu Hao dropped his sword and strode towards me. His hand was still bleeding, but he didn't care.

“Are you hurt?” He grabbed my shoulder and looked around me.

I shook my head: "I'm fine, but your hand..."

“Small spot.”

【It hurts so much! The arrow is poisonous!】 【I'm so shocked...】 【I can't fall in front of my wife, I'll lose face!】 【Come on! Tieu Hao, you are the best!】 His body staggered, his face turned white.

“Tieu Hao!” I panicked and helped him.

He fell into my arms, his lips turning purple.

"Don't be afraid..." He forced a smile, "I... can't die."

【If only I could take the opportunity to ask for a kiss...】 【Strawberry scent...】 Looking at his comatose face, my tears couldn't help but fall. Even now, I still think about the strawberry flavor. I bowed my head and kissed his cold lips.

“It's for you, the strawberry flavor you like.”

I don't know if it was an illusion, the corner of his lips... seemed to curl slightly.

Tieu Hao has been poisoned. This poison is "Ant Huyet Phong Hau", the secret medicine of the Willow country, only Lieu Nhu Yen holds the antidote. The group of old men from the Thai hospital were completely helpless and could only kneel down, kowtow, and scream, "I am guilty." I sat next to the bed, watching Tieu Hao close his eyes tightly. His face was pale, his breathing was weak, and even the sounds in his head were interrupted. 【Wife… don't cry…】 【I'm… okay…】 【Just… a little sleepy…】 I dried my tears. Crying for what? Can crying bring out the antidote? The situation at this time is that there is internal turmoil, and there is enemy outside. If news of Tieu Hao's coma spreads, Ta Van and the kings will definitely immediately start an army, and Lieu Nhu Yen will also take the opportunity to seize power. We must stabilize the situation. I stood up and adjusted my eunuch clothes. From this moment on, I am no longer Queen Co Ninh, nor am I the little eunuch Tieu Co Tu. I am Tieu Hao's only spokesperson. I walked out of the palace. Cong Cong Ly stood waiting outside, looking worried:

“Little Co Tu, how is your Majesty?”

I looked at him coldly: "Your Majesty is just tired, resting. No one is allowed to disturb you." Cong Cong Ly was stunned: "But the Thai doctor said..."

"The doctor's eyes were blurred, his diagnosis was wrong."

I took out the hidden command card of the Co family's army and shook it gently in front of him. Cong Cong Ly's pupils twitched: "This is..."

"Ly Cong Cong is a smart person, he should know what to do."

Cong Cong Ly immediately knelt down: "I understand! Your Majesty is in good health, it's just a mild cold!" Having finished with Ly Cong Cong, the next step is Lieu Nhu Yen. She was definitely waiting for news that Tieu Hao had been poisoned to death. We must act first. I took along a few secret confidants and headed straight to Quy Phi Palace. Lieu Nhu Yen is sitting in front of the mirror brushing her hair, looking like she's in a very good mood. Seeing me barging in, she raised her eyebrows: "Brave slave! Who let you in?" Without further ado, I signaled the secret guard to pin her to the ground. Read the full story at Nguyet Hoa Cac page

"What do you want to do? This palace is a noble concubine! I want to see your majesty!"

I walked up to her, stood tall and looked down:

“Your Highness, Your Majesty sent me to get something.”

“What?”

“The antidote.”

Lieu Nhu Yen's eyes flashed exclaimed: "I don't understand what you are talking about."

“Don't understand?” I smiled faintly, pulled out the dagger and placed it on her face.

"This face is well cared for. If it were to be cut open, I wonder if your Majesty would still want to take a look?"

Lieu Nhu Yen screamed loudly: "You dare! This palace is the princess of Lieu country!"

“This is the Great Chu royal palace, not your Liu country.”

My hand gently applied force, the sharp blade sliced through her skin. Blood immediately leaked out. Lieu Nhu Yen screamed in panic: "Don't! Don't do it! I'll give it! I'll give it!" She trembled and took a pill from the hairpin on her head.

“This is the antidote... Quickly help me stop the bleeding!”

I took the pill and brought it to my nose to smell it. It really has a strange scent. But I don't dare to risk letting Tieu Hao use it right away.

“Swallow it.” I give an order.

“What?”

“Swallow half of this pill.”

Lieu Nhu Yen rolled her eyes: "This medicine is very precious, there is only one pill..."

“Then swallow a third.”

I didn't say much, broke off a piece and stuffed it into her mouth. Lieu Nhu Yen was forced to swallow. A moment later, other than her slightly pale face, she showed no signs of poisoning. Looks like real medicine. I took the rest, turned around and left. Behind him came Lieu Nhu Yen's scream: "You damn eunuch! This palace will definitely kill you!" I laughed coldly. Read the full story on Nguyet Hoa's page. If you can survive this night, then continue talking. Returning to the temple, I gave the antidote to Tieu Hao to drink. A moment later, his breathing stabilized and his face gradually became rosy again. In my head, a familiar voice rang out. 【Ugh… so bitter…】 【Who fed me that?】 【Eh? Smells like a wife?】 【When a wife feeds her,... ct also smells good!】 Me: "..." He can't be saved anymore.

Tieu Hao woke up. But he decided to continue pretending to be dead.

“They thought I was about to die, so give them a big surprise.”

He leaned against the head of the bed, drinking the porridge I fed him and silently planning. 【The porridge is so delicious, the wife cooked it herself.】 【Actually a bit salty... but can't complain.】 【First time cooking, must praise!】

“Is it delicious?” I asked.

“The beauty of humanity.” Tieu Hao's face did not change.

I took a sip. Cough, salty, bitter. This guy, he really can't say a word honestly.

"Currently, Ta Van has gathered fifty thousand soldiers and horses, stationed outside the city." I said in a serious voice, "The Lieu army also began attacking the border."

“The situation is very serious.”

Tieu Hao put down the bowl, his eyes shining with cold light:

“Are you afraid?”

“No.” I grabbed his hand, "At worst... death."

"Why die? I haven't given birth to a monkey with you yet."

He squeezed my hand, his fingers gently caressing my palm.

"I have already made the arrangements. Tonight, they will force the confession."

“At that time, we will catch a batch.”

【Actually, I'm not sure.】 【If I lose... I'll take my wife and run away.】 【I have a treasure trove of gold hidden in Giang Nam, enough to last for several generations.】 【Then I buy a big mansion, have a bunch of children...】 I laughed. This tyrant's retreat was also carefully planned.
