The Chiang family was definitely capable of using a trained dog, which worried Yun Qianyu.
If that dog was a spirit beast then it would surely be able to identify the scent of poison on her cousin.
‘What can I do?’
As she was thinking about what to do, the face painting equipment which she had found in the Phoenix Ring came to mind. She recalled an item that could remove a person’s scent. ‘Maybe I could use it to remove the scent of the poison.’
With that thought, Yun Qianyu secretly took the sachet out and handed it to Lu Jia.
“Cousin, place it on your waist.”
Lu Jia trusted Yun Qianyu very much. After listening to Yun Qianyu, she quickly placed the sachet on her waist without asking any questions.
Seeing this, Yun Qianyu finally let out a breath of relief.
At this time, the sound of approaching footsteps could be heard from outside the hall.
Yun Qianyu looked up and caught a glimpse of Yun Qianxue not far from where she was.
Immediately, thoughts of Hua Mei getting punished and almost killed came to her mind.
Without giving it much thought, Yun Qianyu knew that this must have been related to Yun Qianxue. ‘This woman must have done this to Hua Mei to get to me.’
Glaring at Yun Qianxue, Yun Qianyu cursed at her, ‘Damn bit*h, I’ll get you for this!’
Shocked to find Yun Qianyu glaring at her, Yun Qianxue quickly turned around and looked away. She didn’t dare to look at Yun Qianyu. Although she hated this woman, she also knew that this woman was not someone easy to deal with.
Seeing that Yun Qianxue had looked away guiltily, Yun Qianyu quickly looked at Lu Jia standing at her side and asked in a soft voice, “Cousin, do you still have the poison you gave the Lord Protector Chiang? Do you have the container?”
“I threw it away already.”
Of course, Lu Jia would not still have the poison on her. She had already disposed of it when she had escaped from the scene.
Yun Qianyu felt a little disappointed, but soon her eyes sparkled again and looked at Lu Jia. “Cousin, did you touch the poison previously?”
Lu Jia nodded and felt worried about it too. Since she made the poison herself, her hands would definitely have the scent of the poison.
In order to make this poison, she had spent five years looking for all the herbs. Unfortunately, she had still failed to poison the Lord Protector Chiang.
Ordinary poisons were of little use against people with spirit energy, especially a blue spirit energy user. In order to make a poison that could potentially kill a spirit energy user, Lu Jia had to research it for five years, and then spend another five years looking for the herbs. Even though she had finally made the poison, she was only able to hurt the Lord Protector with it.
The more Lu Jia thought about it, the angrier she felt. However, there was nothing more she could do.
Hearing her answer, Yun Qianyu quietly took out a mimicking elixir pill and wiped it on Lu Jia’s hand. After that, she used her spirit energy and activated the mimicking elixir pill to mimic the scent of the poison.
At this time, a team of soldiers quickly came in from outside the hall. As soon as the soldiers came in, the room became slightly chaotic.
Taking this opportunity, Yun Qianyu quickly shot the mimicking elixir pill toward Yun Qianxue and the servant beside her.
Immediately upon contact, the mimicking elixir pill became a dust which covered Yun Qianxue and her servant.
After Jiang Xuancheng, the General of Valiant Cavalry, came into the hall, he did not rush to search the ladies there. Instead, he greeted the old madam and the empress first.
Anxious, the old madam quickly asked how the Lord Protector was doing.
Jiang Xuancheng said calmly, “Mother, father is alright. Even though the assassin had the element of surprise, she had no chance to actually kill Father.”
