After being imprisoned on death row for three months, Jiang Wange was proposed by his aunt to marry him.
The person she wanted to marry was the regent Xiao Jiuming, who held military power and was a prolific murderer. He had married three princesses before, and all of them died. People in Kyoto said that his life was too strong to defeat his wife, and whoever married would die.
On the night of the wedding, Xiao Jiuming kicked open the bridal chamber door. He was covered in blood. He pinched her neck and asked, "How do you want to die?"
Jiang Wange spread out his left hand, and a green lotus in his palm glowed coldly.
"I am dead, and no one can cure the poison of cold erosion in your body. You will not survive this winter."
Xiao Jiuming stared at the flower and let go.
He thought the person he married was a scapegoat.
It was only later that he discovered that this woman could swallow thousands of poisons, could cast poison, and was even more ruthless than his secret guards.
Political opponents poisoned her, and she drank the poisoned wine back.
The concubine stuffed poisonous snakes into her room. The next day, the concubine herself was poisoned and fell to the ground foaming at the mouth.
The emperor was poisoned and fell unconscious. She forced the poison out of the dragon's body in public, and everyone in court knelt on the ground.
Xiao Jiuming began to panic.
It's not that he's afraid of her dying, it's that he's afraid of her running away.
He mobilized his three thousand cavalry to surround the palace, saying that he was stepping up vigilance.
Jiang Wange leaned against the door and cracked melon seeds: "My lord, who are you guarding against?"
Xiao Jiuming's expression remained unchanged: "In case you run away."
