Nanliang.
Inside the camp of General Shi.
General Shi was still unconscious, and Young Master Shi was worried about his father, having lost a significant amount of weight.
Dong Chenglang advised him not to worry, and just as he was speaking, a guard walked in and whispered a few words into Dong Chenglang's ear.
Dong Chenglang clenched his fist tightly.
He had planned to poison his own uncle or cousin to frame the Duke Huguo, making his uncle lose faith in the court.
After Xie Jingchen gave the poison to Dong Chenglang, Dong Chenglang was eager to act, but Xie Jingchen stopped him, advising to wait for the right moment.
Though anxious, he heeded Xie Jingchen's words.
Unexpectedly, before he could act, the Duke Huguo poisoned his uncle!
Hmm.
Xie Jingchen did not inform Dong Chenglang about poisoning General Shi.
Only by not knowing could he avoid exposing, and become even angrier.
