On the morning of the second day, after Lord Xitian confirmed the antidote was effective, Ye Zhen almost left Xitian County with Zhao Zhong at the fastest speed possible.
Ye Zhen was well aware that he had almost taken away more than half of Lord Xitian's collection, and if it weren't for the support of Marquis Xingqing, Lord Xitian would have likely launched a full-scale war against him.
Marquis Xingqing was named Ji Tao, and his father was Prince Yangling, Ji Liu, both members of the Great Zhou Royal Family.

However, the father and son of Marquis Xingqing are not just any ordinary members of the royal family. The current Holy Emperor of Great Zhou, in some private occasions, even addresses Prince Yangling, Ji Liu, as uncle.
