Ending, rebirth of revenge + double skills of medicine and poison + mutual love between two strong men + all members' scheming + palace fighting. Highlighted reminder: Refuse to outwit the villain, all members have 800 scheming, peak wits! In the previous life, Shen Nanzhi, the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo, went blind and worked hard to save the scumbag by using forbidden magic. What happened instead was that the scumbag and Bai Lian's cousin secretly set up Chen Cang, causing all the loyal members of her Shen family to die tragically! After Nirvana and rebirth, she held the silver needle in her hand and returned to the day when she introduced poison to the scumbag to extend her life. Faced with the scumbag's expectations and his cousin's fake cry, Shen Nanzhi sneered and withdrew the needle: "I don't understand the poison. Since my cousin is so affectionate, why not let you bleed and cut the flesh?" In this life, she has torn away the disguise, mastered both medicine and poisoning, and raised dead people from their flesh and bones! Xiao Duo, the regent of Dayuan, was the living king of hell with all the power in the government and the public, but he was tortured by strange poisons. Shen Nanzhi threw down the antidote and said coldly and arrogantly, "I will save the life of the prince. How about lending me your knife to kill all the demons and monsters?" Everyone in the world thought that the daughter of the Duke was just a delicate canary in the palm of the living hell. It wasn't until the powerful officials from all walks of life appeared on stage, and the decisive moves emerged one after another, that everyone was horrified to discover that the seemingly weak Shen Nanzhi was actually the full-level female Zhuge who was in charge of the world of chess and had all the plans! She and he faced life and death back to back, met gods and killed gods, and manipulated the civil and military forces of the entire dynasty at the palm of their hands! When the bloody road is cut through, the world will be at peace. The iron-blooded regent who had made all of Kyushu frightened after hearing the news, lost all his anger, held her tightly in his arms, and said in a low and hoarse voice. "Zhizhi, the situation has been decided. With these thousands of miles of beautiful mountains and rivers, when will you be willing to give me a title?!" ——The decisive killing queen of medical poison × the crazy regent who bowed for her, joined forces to kill all the evil spirits!
