Chapter 21 — Once I am reborn, I will not give him even a strand of hair

Co Nghien Hanh turned his head, his eyes filled with blood.

“What about the joyful music outside the villa in the west of the city?”

“That is not a wedding between you and Uyen Nhu.”

The old lady tried to suppress the pain caused by the toxicity and suddenly burst out laughing.

“That's the funeral music I prepared for you.”

"After discovering that Khuong Thanh Tu was dead, I led soldiers to surround the Co family."

"Unfortunately, before I could enter Tung Hac Duong, I died in the second attack."

My appearance has not changed at all. It's okay to misunderstand, it's okay to lie, all of it cannot erase the lock that Co Nghiem Hanh himself locked on people. However, Co Nghien Hanh seemed to have been drained of all his strength. The emperor took the opportunity to pull out the arrow on his wrist, swung his sword and stabbed straight at his back.

“Co Nghien Hanh!”

I just had time to sound a warning. The long sword pierced straight through the man's chest, the tip of the sword piercing out of the front of his shirt. Co Nghien Hanh did not avoid it. On the contrary, he tightly grasped the blade, used the last bit of strength to turn around, and violently rammed the Emperor towards the iron cage that had just been opened. The iron door closed with a loud sound. The Emperor was locked inside, angrily swinging his sword and slashing wildly at the iron bars. Co Nghien Hanh knelt to the ground, black blood continuously dripping from his chest. I stepped in front of him, used silver needles to block the acupuncture points around the wound.

“I'm not saving you.”

Co Nghien Hanh raised his eyes and looked at me.

“Her parents are still in the tunnel above.”

“Thach Thanh will take them away.”

"The eastern stone door leads to the outside of the palace. Take the bronze book and leave here. Don't return to the Co family anymore."

He placed the blood-stained order needle in my palm.

“The me from my previous life owed you my life.”

“In this life, I have no right to ask for your forgiveness.”

Let's put away the order sheet.

“I will not forgive.”

Co Nghien Hanh replied softly. The old lady sat down under the copper wall, the black veins on her arms had spread to her neck. She looked at the imprisoned Emperor and suddenly burst into shrill laughter.

“No one can leave here.”

“Once the old medicine warehouse is opened, the poisonous gas underground of the imperial city will overflow into this place.”

She used her hand that had turned black to press down on the organ next to the wall. The entire stone door lowered at the same time, and the ventilation door at the top also closed. The gloomy green lights turned off one by one. The strong smell of bitter medicine quickly rose from the crevices in the ground. When I raised my head, the final escape route was less than half a meter wide. However, from outside the stone door, the sound of my mother banging against the cliff while crying echoed out. We insert the command needle into the recessed groove next to the stone door. The agency did not have any response. The old lady leaned against the bronze wall, her voice becoming hoarse.

“The Co family's orders can only open the outer gate.”

"This place is the royal family's old pharmacy. Unless they have the remaining half of the jade order, no one can go out."

The emperor was locked in an iron cage, a look of panic finally appearing on his face.

“Hoa An, release Tram!”

Cong Cong Hoa hugged his severed wrist and retreated to the wall, but resentment welled up in his eyes.

“The slave has done dirty things for Your Majesty During these twenty years, has Your Majesty ever thought about letting this slave live?”

He took out half a piece of jade from his chest. There was still dried blood on the edge of the piece of jade, which was the object that father had said was hidden in the palace.

“The remaining half of the jade order is always on you.”

The old lady stared at him. Cong Cong Hoa laughed coldly.

"That year, Khuong Nghien Chi was escorted to the old pharmacy, and I personally searched him."

"You all thought that he only hid half of the jade order in the Co family's bride price, but you didn't know that the other half had already been kept by me."

I held out my hand.

“Give it to me.”

"The poisonous gas here will penetrate the lungs first. When you were young, you were seriously injured and could only last another moment at most."

Hoa Cong Cong's breathing became rapid. We continue to say:

“Open the stone door, you still have a chance to get out and be questioned.”

“If you stay here, you can only be buried with them.”

Cong Cong Hoa looked at the Emperor in the iron cage and suddenly threw a piece of jade at me. The Emperor shouted loudly:

“You dare betray me!”

“A slave only learns the morality that Your Majesty himself taught.”

Hoa Cong Cong knelt down on the ground, laughing so much that tears streamed down his face.

“If people only care for themselves, they can throw away anything.”
