Chapter 449: Sending a Goat to the Tiger’s Den
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Consort Molcvin fainted very suddenly. Because she had recovered quite well in the past two days, she would go out of her tent to play with the two children for a while every afternoon. Sometimes, she would even talk to her father and brother, who doted on her.
Everyone, including Lin Suisui, was very happy about Consort Molevin’s improvement.
In order to let her recuperate better and because they knew that she was worried about Zadeh, in the past few days, be it Gu Han or her father and brother, they used the best news they could to comfort her.
Today was the same. She was chatting with her oldest brother and playing games with the children, but this peacefulness didn’t last long. Without warning, she spat out black blood and fell to the ground weakly, as if her spine had been sucked out.
This sudden change in situation frightened the people around her. As everyone hurriedly sent the Consort back to the tent, they immediately arranged for someone to look for Lin Suisui for help.
Because something had happened to Consort Molcvin, Lin Suisui and the others could only end their discussion for the time being. Under the guidance of the maidservants who came to look for them for help, Lin Suisui and Lu Ze quickly rushed to the tent where Consort Molcvin lived.
Consort Molevin’s condition looked a little bad, so Lin Suisui frowned slightly and walked to Consort’s side to take her pulse without saying anything.
“It’s poison.” After Lin Suisui took her pulse, she looked at the Consort’s tongue and eyelids. In the end, she came to a conclusion that made everyone’s hearts skip a beat.
It had to be said that Nina was very capable and scheming.
The tame head technique she used was clearly bound to poison. Even though the tame head technique was removed, it didn’t affect the poison. Therefore, even if Consort Molcvin could escape the tame head technique’s control now, the poison would still make her suffer.
“I’ve already controlled the spread and damage of the poison in the Consort’s body, but it’s only a temporary solution.”
An hour later, Lin Suisui finally put away her last silver needle and turned to look at Consort Molevin’s brother as she told him the outcome of the treatment.
“If we want to completely eliminate the damage the poison causes to the Consort’s body, the most direct way is to get the antidote from Nina.’1
Of course, Nina wouldn’t give the antidote to them so readily.
What she wanted was the submission of the entire tribe.
“We’ve already decided to go to the Imperial Court in advance.’1 Lin Suisui looked at Consort Molevin’s brother as she continued slowly, “Perhaps we can cooperate and enter the Imperial Court to restrain Nina and make her hand over the antidote.”
“But why are you helping us?” Consort Molevin’s brother wasn’t stupid. He didn’t believe in free lunch, so after Lin Suisui made such a suggestion, his first reaction wasn’t joy, but vigilance.
“Of course I’m not helping you for nothing. I naturally have my reasons for going to the Imperial Court.
After so many things have happened, 1 believe you can also tell that Zadeh isn’t suitable for becoming the successor.
In comparison, Gu Han is the most suitable candidate.
“I helped you save Consort Molcvin because I hope that you can stand on Gu Han’s side.” Lin Suisui looked at Consort Molevin’s brother as she said with a smile, “Besides, when Consort Molcvin came out of the Imperial Court previously, she also helped bring out Sr. Khan’s seal and disrupted Concubine Nina’s plan. This helped Gu Han a lot.
Therefore, it’s not difficult to understand why I helped the Consort escape danger.”
“Do you really think Gu Han is suitable for becoming the future Khan?” Consort Molevin’s brother frowned slightly and was silent for a long time before questioning Lin Suisui, “You should have seen what has happened these past few days.
I admit that Gu Han is indeed brave and good at fighting! However, when dealing with other things, he’s too soft-hearted and hesitant!1’
Seeing that Lin Suisui had no intention of interrupting him, Mo Enze continued, “Being brave and good at fighting can’t solve all problems.
You probably know what the northern barbarians will face next because of this chaos in the Imperial Court.
If he has always been so indecisive, then…”
“I admit that you’re right, but in the current situation, the only suitable candidate is Gu Han.
I know that from your perspective, there’s another more suitable candidate, Prince Hassan.
However, don’t forget that Prince Hassan is still young. Perhaps you can help from the side. After all, Prince Hassan is a smart child. There’s no need to worry too much, so he will definitely learn to be a good ruler.
However, Prince Hassan’s father, Zadeh, is still alive. If you support his son to take the throne, there will be too many unexpected situations in the future. Besides, even if Zadeh doesn’t cause trouble, how can you make the other nobles and tribes, who arc already tempted to take the throne, submit willingly?
Moreover, the reason Gu Han has been so hesitant those past few days is not because of his indecisive personality, but because he values relationships too much.” Lin Suisui told Mo Enzo about the reason behind Gu Han’s hesitance. Then, she said, “Just as you said just now, the northern barbarians have already experienced such turmoil, so there really can’t be any more trouble. Therefore, Gu Han is the most suitable candidate for this position.
Of course, if you’re worried, you can supervise and advise him. Gu Han is not the kind of person who won’t listen to advice.”
“But aren’t you afraid of danger if you go to the Imperial Court at this time?” Mo Enzo didn’t answer Lin Suisui immediately, instead, he changed the topic.
He briefly explained the situation in the Imperial Court before saying, “Nina won’t admit defeat so easily.”
In that case, Lin Suisui, who was clearly against her and had great beguilement power, would naturally become a thorn in her side.
They were far away now, so Nina’s influence was more or loss out of reach. Once Lin Suisui approached the Imperial Court, then…
Wasn’t that like a sheep sending itself into the tiger’s den?
