However, she could only entertain these thoughts in her mind. If that dog of a man found out, she'd lose half her life.

Soon, Xi Chenqing discovered it was a common and deadly poison that killed instantly upon entering the bloodstream. She immediately informed Secret Guard No.1 of her findings.
Once Secret Guard No.1 was briefed, he took the corpse and went to report to Qingchen.
Upon hearing Secret Guard No.1's report, Qingchen nodded and instructed him to strengthen their defenses. For now, there was no other option.
It seemed the plan to advance and attack Capital City would have to be halted.
