Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 1142: Chapter 1142 Shen Xiang’s Plan_1 Chapter 1142: Chapter 1142 Shen Xiang’s Plan_1 “All of you legitimate heirs have been infested with the poison of the hell flower, a concoction with no antidote, and to be entangled with it means death is not far off. Why suffer the torment of the hell flower when you can let me grant you a swift end now!”

When mentioning the four characters for “hell flower”, his expression could only be described as gleeful.

He had been plotting rebellion for decades, but because the Yang Family possessed gunpowder, this illogical Divine Weapon, he had never found a suitable opportunity to strike.

But now the legitimate heirs of the Yang Family had suddenly been afflicted with the hell flower, for which there is no antidote. It’s as if Heaven itself is aiding him!

Yang Wenxiao stood with his hands clasped behind his back, looking down at Shen Chenghao with a smirk, “Minister Shen, it seems you know quite a lot about the hell flower.”

“One can only say that Heaven is helping an old man like me,” Shen Chenghao said, unable to hide his triumph. “Grand Emperor, it’s time for you to accept your fate.”

The Liu Family’s inexplicable defeat meant that he, who had been plotting rebellion in the shadows, naturally sought out every possible way to investigate.

Unfortunately, the Liu Family had been locked in the Sky Prison, and despite all his efforts, he hadn’t been able to meet them.

However, just a few days earlier, the people of the Liu Family were suddenly dispatched to work on road repairs, giving him a chance to make contact.

Having suffered hardships beyond imagination, the fallen Liu Family readily divulged everything to him for a little benefit.

The hell flower.

Truly a miraculous thing.

Colorless, odorless, slow-acting, addictive, and without an antidote.

How could there possibly exist such a marvelous poison in this world?

Once he confirmed the effects of the hell flower and knew the Liu Family was not lying, he immediately began making arrangements.

The Yang Family was doomed sooner or later. By taking action now, he would spare them the agony of the hell flower and fulfill the longstanding loyalty between sovereign and minister.

So when Yao Xian approached him, he pretended to be at the complete disposal of the Queen Mother, following her hints to the letter.

Expose Qiao Xiaomai’s identity as possibly possessed by a demon?

Ha, had he not known about the Yang Family’s affliction with the hell flower, he would have focused on this task, fabricating evidence if needed, no matter the cost.

But with the Yang Family on the brink of extinction, what was a mere Qiao Xiaomai worth?

Nothing at all!

Which is why he had only casually mentioned it earlier, not putting any actual effort in.

He wasn’t here for some cooking competition today. Even if Wan Chang truly defeated Qiao Xiaomai, Shen Chenghao would still rebel.

Using the cooking competition as a facade for rebellion was an excellent opportunity!

Qiao Xiaomai was merely an ant. Once he succeeded, he could effortlessly squash her with a flick of his finger. His focus was on forcing the palace at this very moment.

Using the cooking competition as a chance to lure Yang Wenxiao, Emperor Yongan, Yang Hao, and Yang Zheng–these four legitimate heirs–out of the Imperial Palace, and then somehow ensure the safety of the Yang Family with the officers he had bribed, while his personally trained assassins mingled among the onlooking crowd.

With four or five hundred men in battle, the Yang Family would be chopped into mincemeat, and Daqi would belong to the Shen Family!

Hmph, they were nothing but peasants who had lucked into taking over the world with gunpowder. Occupying the supreme throne for fifty years was already a blind stroke of fate. From now on, it would be his turn to sit upon that supreme throne!

“You cannot reach the gunpowder, the Imperial Guards are stationed near the Palace, and the banshee troops are far away. Now everyone here belongs to my Shen Family. Even if you had wings, you couldn’t escape! Yang Wenxiao, Yang Hongbo, I advise you not to resist, or you will be reduced to bits of flesh!”

By the end of his speech, the smugness on Shen Chenghao’s face disappeared, replaced by a ruthless and fierce expression.
