Chapter 1561: Su Cheng’s Self-Injury
"Military genius brings Zizhi Tongjian to another world ()" Find the latest chapter!
This scream scared everyone - including Elsa.
After hearing this scream, Elsa was stunned at first.
Then she quickly threw the plate in her hand aside and ran to the place where the crowd gathered.
Su Cheng is now in the middle of this place where the crowd gathered.
Pushing away all the people blocking her, Elsa finally saw Su Cheng's appearance at this time - lying on the ground, his face pale, spitting out blood in big mouthfuls.
Looking at Su Cheng who was spitting out blood, a terrible word emerged in Elsa's mind - poison!
"Quick!"
Elsa screamed loudly as if she was crazy.
"Quickly let the doctor come! Quickly let the doctor come!"
Although she was extremely anxious, Elsa had not lost all her reason. While ordering the doctors to come, she also asked the guards to quickly block the entire Baiyang Palace and prohibit anyone from entering or leaving to prevent the assassin who poisoned the food from escaping from Baiyang Palace.
Even a fool could see that the reason why Su Cheng suddenly vomited blood must be the work of the assassin.
So everyone's face turned ugly.
The exquisite dishes originally spread on the table were no longer delicacies in their eyes, but sharp knives.
Some people even showed cruel faces and put their fingers into their throats to induce vomiting. The air was suddenly filled with a sour smell.
Screams and vomiting sounds were mixed together, and the sour smell of vomit and the fragrance of food were intertwined - the so-called "chaos" was probably like this.
…
…
At Ilsa's summons, the doctors in the palace rushed to Su Cheng as quickly as possible and rescued him.
While the doctors were rescuing Su Cheng, Ilsa personally presided over the capture of the assassin, and opened a strict and almost exaggerated search network to conduct a comprehensive and all-round search of Baiyang Palace.
An assassin sneaked into the Baiyang Palace and poisoned the food specially provided for the emperor and his ministers, and finally succeeded in poisoning the "God of War" of their Britannia Empire - such an incident was simply a great shame in Ilsa's eyes.
Fortunately, Su Cheng was the only one poisoned that day.
All the others, including Ilsa, were safe and sound.
This also gave the searchers a specific search direction - carefully check all the tableware used by Su Cheng that day and all the food he ate, and use this as a clue to follow the clues and find out the person who poisoned him.
The doctors' rescue of Su Cheng lasted nearly half a day.
After half a day, Su Cheng's attending doctor ended Su Cheng's treatment and informed Ilsa and others who were waiting for the treatment results early.
The treatment of Su Cheng was generally successful.
The reason why it is successful is that after their efforts, they have pulled Su Cheng back from the brink of death, and Su Cheng is no longer in danger of death.
The reason why I put "generally" before "success" is because - although Su Cheng was successfully rescued, Su Cheng may never be able to see again because of the poison...
...
...
One month later -
Britannia Empire, Pendragon, Su Cheng's home.
"Yo~~Good morning, Su Cheng."
Su Cheng, who was lying on the bed, suddenly heard a familiar female voice beside him.
"Arthur, you are here."
Although he could no longer see anything, Su Cheng still subconsciously looked over.
"I have...followed the plan you mentioned and used a special poison to cripple you..."
Su Cheng could hear that - although Arthur pretended to be relaxed, there was still a little sadness in her tone.
"Arthur, thank you very much." Su Cheng smiled slightly, "Really... Thank you very much... Thanks to you,
My plan was very successful."
This is Su Cheng's plan - entrust Arthur to work with Arthur to create an "accident" to cripple himself so that he can no longer go to the battlefield.
Su Cheng did not dare to disobey Ilsa, nor did he want to help the evil.
Su Cheng, who was caught in the middle and in a dilemma, finally decided to escape.
Escape from this embarrassing situation.
And the method Su Cheng came up with was self-mutilation. Let his body be damaged so that he can no longer go to the battlefield.
And the best injury that can make a commander like Su Cheng no longer be able to go to the battlefield is naturally-blindness.
No matter how powerful a commander is, after losing his eyes, he will naturally no longer be able to go to the battlefield-after all, if he can't even see the map, he can't command the troops to fight.
So, Su Cheng and Arthur directed and acted out this "poisoning" drama.
This poison that can accurately corrode Su Cheng's eyes was naturally provided by Arthur. Arthur also administered the poison.
It is precisely because Arthur was responsible for making and administering the poison that Elsa and the others have not caught him yet - this is understandable, as Arthur used magic to poison Su Cheng at the time, and it would be strange if Elsa and the others could catch him.
The play directed and performed by the two was very successful.
Everyone thought that Su Cheng was killed by an assassin, and Su Cheng's eyes also lost their sight smoothly.
After losing his eyes, Su Cheng could only retreat to the second line in the future.
As long as he retreated to the second line, he could completely stay away from these right and wrongs.
In the future, even if Elsa wanted to force Su Cheng to go to the battlefield, she would be powerless, completely cutting off the possibility of him helping the tyrants.
"Su Cheng... you really, really don't regret blinding yourself like this..."
"Arthur... I have answered this question many times." Su Cheng smiled helplessly, "I don't regret it, not only do I not regret it, but I also feel a sense of relief."
"Although... I look down on myself a little bit..."
Su Cheng's face showed a faint bitterness.
"I don't dare to say 'no' to His Majesty at the cost of my life like Enli did."
"I don't want to be a puppet who obeys Elsa completely..."
"So in the end, I just came up with this somewhat cowardly way to escape..."
"...Your choice is not wrong." Arthur said softly after a moment of silence, "No one has the right to kidnap you and make you do something."
"And-from another perspective, you are brave for not hesitating to cripple your eyes."
"You would rather cripple your eyes and never go to the battlefield again, rather than accompany Elsa to do things you don't want to do in the future..."
"I am inexplicably looking forward to the future now." Arthur's tone was a bit joking, "If Elsa encounters a troublesome battle in the future, I wonder if she will think of you, the 'God of War' who has lost his eyes and can no longer go to the battlefield?"
