Chapter 1825: Chapter 1822: Administering Medicine

Who would have expected that Lord Chu had another skill, he could also speak the language of the Southern Border, which was truly astonishing.

Compared to Xiao Tianhao’s happiness, the Southern Border Witch Doctor felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, cold sweat breaking out all over his body.

“You know, you really know.” The Southern Border Witch Doctor, who originally had a glimmer of hope, found himself on the verge of mental collapse as these words came out, blurting them out instinctively.

Once he finished speaking, his voice choked, realizing what he had just said, his face turned even paler, and he hurriedly tried to cover up: “No, I didn’t mean to deliberately drug your madam.”

Chu Heng paid no attention to him, only took out the medicine primer from the medical box, and to prevent others from falling victim, he decisively poured the medicinal powder into a bowl and fed it to him.

With his chin forced open, the Southern Border Witch Doctor struggled desperately, “Help… help… let me go…”

“I’ll speak, I’ll speak now.” Seeing the coldness in Chu Heng’s eyes, showing no hint of emotion, the Southern Border Witch Doctor couldn’t help but shiver, a trace of fear flashing in his eyes, and he quickly conceded.

Chu Heng’s actions paused for a moment.

The Southern Border Witch Doctor sensed this, instinctively exhaled a sigh of relief, swallowed, and his mind spun rapidly, saying: “I didn’t mean to drug Madam Chu deliberately, I just wanted to confirm whether Madam Chu knew about Lu Sangqi almost being poisoned because of the medicine we provided.”

“But although the medicine was provided by us, it was the Commandery Prince who acted, it has nothing to do with us.” The Southern Border Witch Doctor, fearing Chu Heng’s misunderstanding, decisively shifted all the blame onto the Commandery Prince, adamantly refusing to admit what he had done.

Chu Heng’s indifferent eyes glanced at him lightly: “Oh.”

Then, decisively fed the medicine into his mouth.

The Southern Border Witch Doctor widened his eyes in shock, realizing what had happened, coughing desperately, trying to vomit it out.

“I told you everything, how can you…”

The Southern Border Witch Doctor did not expect Chu Heng to go back on his word, finding himself in an even more irritable mood.

“Did I promise you anything?” Chu Heng opened his mouth indifferently, curling his lips into a cold smile, “When you decided to target my family, it meant there would inevitably be this outcome, moreover, the lies you told, you can take to fool ghosts.”

“Speaking of which, I should thank your Southern Border for developing such things.” Chu Heng fed him another medicine.

After speaking, regardless of the Southern Border Witch Doctor’s struggles, he directly stood up.

The struggles on the Southern Border Witch Doctor’s side became noticeably weaker, and his gaze went from initial anger to gradually becoming vacant.

Beside him, Xiao Tianhao observing the whole scene, had some doubts: “Does this medicine really, like the people of the Southern Border say, make one speak the truth?”

“To be precise, this medicine has a hallucinogenic effect, after use, a person’s senses are fragmented, at the same time, it lowers one’s guard, achieving the effect of answering whatever is asked.” Chu Heng explained simply.

Xiao Tianhao glanced at the medicine bottle: “Then these medicines must be very precious, right?”

“Hmm, only the Southern Border Royal Family possesses them, and they are in rare quantities, however, now that the Southern Border Witch Doctor can take these out, it is somewhat uncertain.”

Although Chu Heng did not speak straightforwardly, Xiao Tianhao, being the Chief of the Shadow Guards responsible for collecting information from all regions for Emperor Xuanming, understood clearly upon hearing this.

“It seems we must send someone to investigate the Southern Border.” Xiao Tianhao said seriously.

Chu Heng responded with a hum, but did not speak further.
