Chapter 42 My life is always in my own hands

Cheng Jin nodded slightly, indicating that Xiao Shunzi could come forward to serve him.

That Xiao Shunzi was really not afraid at all. He hunched over and approached Chu Chengye's bed without showing any other look on his face.

Cheng Jin watched carefully from the side, as if he wanted to see some clues, but he didn't expect that Xiao Shunzi was not only courageous, but also had no control over him.

Xiao Shunzi walked to Chu Chengye's bed and carefully helped Chu Chengye change the quilt on the bed.

Cheng Jin held his breath and stared at the side, fearing that Chu Chengye would not be able to pretend and would be noticed.

But Chu Chengye's pretense was too real, except that he was still breathing, the rest was no different from a dying person.

If Cheng Jin hadn't known in advance, he would have really doubted whether Chu Chengye was really dead.

Chu Chengye closed his eyes tightly, his face was pale, and there was blood on his neck that looked like he had just spit out. His lips were white without a trace of blood, and he looked like he was deeply poisoned.

[Looks like he is asleep, but he has actually been gone for a while. 】

When Xiao Shunzi was about to change Chu Chengye's clothes, he showed a bit of nervousness.

But it's not fear, but excitement and joy.

He had been dormant and suffering in the palace for so many years before he got the opportunity to serve Chu Chengye closely. Even if he just brought tea and water, it was a good time for him to take revenge.

Xiao Shunzi told Cheng Jin that he was indeed humiliated when he first entered the palace, and it was indeed Chu Chengye who couldn't stand it anymore and called him to work with him.

But what about that?
Could Chu Chengye just do this one good deed to wipe out the blood feud?

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

The lives of these people were like ants in Chu Chengye's eyes. He would kill them if he wanted to, and chop them into pieces if he wanted. He had never seen them as human beings.

Just saying a word that day turned his destiny upside down.

Xiao Shunzi looked at Chu Chengye who was lying on the bed and felt happy in his heart.

So what if he is the emperor?So what if it’s the Nine-Five Supreme?It's not like he is about to die by his own hands.

His sister, who was nothing more than just now, could be regarded as someone who could close his eyes under Jiuquan.

Thinking that he was about to reach the age where he could leave the palace, he was suddenly executed by Chu Chengye. It was obvious that the whole family could stay together happily when his sister left the palace, but this tyrant completely disposed of the maids and eunuchs in the palace and let them The two siblings who depend on each other are separated forever.

How could Xiao Shunzi not hate him? He voluntarily purified himself and entered the palace just because he thought that one day he could kill Chu Chengye with his own hands.

Now he did it.

He listened to the adult and put poison in Chu Chengye's tea.

Chu Chengye's glass of water passed through countless hands, and it was impossible to trace it to him.

So what if he is found out? Once Chu Chengye dies, he will not be afraid even if he is cut into pieces with a thousand knives.

This tyrant's life hangs by a thread right now, fearing that he will die soon.

Xiao Shunzi stared at Chu Chengye's slow and difficult breathing, and could no longer hold back the hatred in his eyes.

Since he is going to die soon, it is better to give him a happy life.

After Xiao Shunzi changed Chu Chengye's shirt, he would accidentally sprinkle the poisonous substance that had been hidden on his fingertips on Chu Chengye's mouth and nose.

Chu Chengye smelled a strange smell on Xiao Shunzi early in the morning, just like the smell in the tea that day.

It's just that the flavor is stronger and obviously the dosage is higher.

He held his breath for a while, wanting to see what this little Shunzi was going to do.Sure enough, this little trick was going to kill him.

Knowing Xiao Shunzi's intention, Chu Chengye stopped pretending and grabbed Xiao Shunzi's hand directly. With all his strength, he broke his poisoned hand in half.

The eunuchs in the room were so frightened that Chu Chengye suddenly came to life again that they ran away.

Xiao Shunzi's painful forehead was sweating, and he couldn't even say anything to beg for mercy. He just looked at Chu Chengye full of doubts and confusion.

"Aren't you going to die from poisoning?
Chu Chengye sneered, with murderous intent in his eyes, "You want me to die? Huh, do you have such a great ability?"

Only then did Xiao Shunzi realize that he had fallen into the trap, and he only felt regretful about how he could have been so negligent.

Now my sister's revenge has not been avenged, and my life has been in vain.

But it doesn't matter if you die, you don't have to serve Chu Chengye every day. He does many evil things, but he enjoys the glory and wealth that no one in the world can match.
It just makes people feel sick.

Xiao Shunzi knew that his affairs were exposed, so he didn't panic. He smiled without fear of death.

"Of course I don't have this ability, but the Emperor has done many evil things. If I can't kill the Emperor, I'm afraid there will be others who want your life."

"The slave is dead, but the things the emperor did, there will be someone else, and the next person will also want the emperor's life."

"God opens your eyes! This tyrant must die a good death!"

After saying that, Xiao Shunzi struggled back and forth like crazy.

Chu Chengye raised his hand and pinched Xiao Shunzi's throat, his expression arrogant.

"I never believe in God, I only believe in myself. My life is always in my own hands."

"If God really opens his eyes, I will be blessed forever."

Chu Chengye just glanced at Xiao Shunzi in front of him, without even giving him a proper look.

If Chu Chengye hadn't wanted to know where he got this strange poison from Northern Xinjiang, Chu Chengye wouldn't have even looked at it even if he died in front of Chu Chengye.

Chu Chengye slowly tightened his palms with a threatening face, "I only give you one chance. Who gave you the poison? Who is the person behind you?"

Xiao Shunzi stared at Chu Chengye with a deep look on his face, "Every soul in the world who died because of the emperor ordered this slave to do this."

"Unrepentant!"

"I have given you a chance."

Chu Chengye pinched Xiao Shunzi's neck tightly. If he just applied a little more force, Xiao Shunzi's neck would break.

But even so, Xiao Shunzi had no intention of saying anything.

Although Xiao Shunzi committed a capital crime by poisoning Chu Chengye, Xiao Shunzi had important evidence in his mouth.

Although Xiao Shunzi hated the emperor deeply, he was just an ordinary slave. He definitely couldn't come into contact with the people in Northern Xinjiang, let alone the strange poison in Northern Xinjiang. There must be someone behind his back.

Cheng Jin quickly stepped forward and grabbed Chu Chengye, "Your Majesty, no."

Chu Chengye was already overwhelmed by anger, but now Cheng Jin reminded him and he relaxed.

Cheng Jin stood nearby and wanted to soften Xiao Shunzi's mind, "Although the emperor is full-time and arbitrary, everything he does is for the sake of the country, the country and the people, and the people he punishes have indeed made big mistakes. Wouldn’t wrong a good man.”

"You also said that the emperor is kind to you, so naturally he will not do something like killing innocent people. I believe there must be a reason for it."
