Chapter 258: Jiangsi County Chapter 26

"Poisonous?" Elegy hurriedly picked up a green vegetable and sniffed it on the tip of her nose, but she didn't smell the smell, she said to Si Dui, "Si Dui, do you notice anything similar?" ”

Si Dui's face also turned pale, she moved her eyes to Si Chen, only to see that Si Chen also shook his head, obviously not noticing.

This is strange, the three of them didn't find out that these vegetables were poisonous, how did Ning Yuanxing know? Elegy looked at Ning Yuanxing suspiciously, and asked, "How did you know that this dish was poisonous?" ”

"You don't have to know how I know, but this dish is poisonous and can't be eaten."

Ning Yuanxing was reluctant to elaborate on the reason, but he had said so, and Elegy was not willing to risk poisoning anymore.

She put down her chopsticks and stared at a table of good dishes, a little pity, and secretly hated the cook for wasting food.

Wait a minute...... Who was the poisoner? Is it really a cook? This situation is almost negligible, because the cook has no grievances with them, and there is no motive to poison them, which is another possibility, instigated by someone.

"Who is trying to murder us?" Elegy asked, who hates them the most now in Jiangsi County?

"This, isn't it clear if you ask the person concerned?" Ning Yuanxing said lightly.

Before Elegy could digest this sentence, Ning Yuanxing waved the chopsticks on the table in the direction of the door, and the next moment, there was a scream outside the house, Si Chen didn't say a word, got up and opened the door with a "whoosh", and stopped the shopkeeper who was about to escape.

"The guest officer spares his life, the guest officer spares his life, the little one doesn't know anything!" The shopkeeper was kicked into the house by Si Chen, and then began to kneel and beg for mercy. The man's face was extremely pale, and his whole body trembled like a sieve.

Ning Yuanxing turned around, looked at the shopkeeper, and asked lightly, "Why are you eavesdropping outside the door?" ”

"The little one, the little one doesn't know anything, just happened to pass in front of the guest officer's house just now, and the little one doesn't know anything!" In the end, the shopkeeper almost cried, and he couldn't get up when he threw himself on the ground.

Ning Yuanxing Ren shopkeeper was unmoved by how miserable he cried, his eyes were silent. asked lightly: "Don't say yes, right?" ”

"Someone." As soon as the words fell. A few guards used it in, and as soon as the shopkeeper saw this posture, his soul was frightened.

He hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy: "The guest officer spares his life." The guest officer spared his life......"

"You want us to spare our lives. Just tell us. Who instructed you? There was a light smile on the corner of Ning Yuanxing's mouth, but this indifferent smile made the shopkeeper break out in a cold sweat.

He cried out in his heart. Thinking about the shopkeeper, it's really not like I'm going to betray you!

The shopkeeper's heart walked up and down the hall downstairs, rubbing his hands together quickly, and his palms began to sweat.

Just now he asked the shopkeeper to go up to observe the situation, but he didn't know that he hadn't come down until now, and he didn't know what the specific situation was.

But soon, he didn't have to worry about it, and when several guards came down and let him go up, the shopkeeper's heart sank, and he knew that something bad was wrong.

Sure enough, after going upstairs, he saw the shopkeeper who was kneeling on the side and shaking like a sieve, and he knew that everything was over.

He took a deep breath, then showed his usual signature smile and asked, "What's wrong with the guest officers?" Is it because the food at our restaurant is not to your taste? The little man immediately called for a different table. ”

As he spoke, he was about to turn around and go downstairs, when Ning Yuanxing's voice sounded behind him, "Shopkeeper, there seems to be something wrong with this meal." ”

The shopkeeper didn't plan to turn back, but as soon as he saw the guards standing in front of him, he sighed, he laughed dryly, turned around and asked, "Guest officer, I don't know what's wrong with the food?" ”

"What's the problem, come over and take a bite, don't you know everything?" Ning Yuanxing smiled faintly.

The shopkeeper's face stiffened, "The guest officer laughed, there are rules in this store, and the clerk is not allowed to eat the customer's meal." ”

Ning Yuanxing raised his eyebrows, he just said, "Do you want to come over and eat it yourself, or do you want me to have someone feed you?" ”

The clothes behind the shopkeeper were already wet with sweat, he saw that Ning Yuanxing didn't seem to be joking, his face wrinkled, and he almost cried, he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "Eh, the guest officer spared the villain, the villain was also forced to be helpless!" ”

Recruited! Elegy was stunned for a moment, she thought that it would take a lot of twists and turns to make the shopkeeper's confession, who knows how to recruit it quickly, she glanced at Ning Yuanxing, who was breezy and calm, this person is also very good at intimidating people!

The afterglow of Ning Yuanxing's eyes swept to Elegy, and just by seeing her face, he knew what she was thinking now.

However, there are obviously more important things now, and he didn't care about it, just drank all the tea that the shopkeeper had made before in front of everyone, but said, "Say, who instructed you?" ”

The shopkeeper is just an ordinary businessman, how can he withstand Ning Yuanxing's coercion and temptation, and soon, like pouring beans, all of them are recruited.

"Is it Master Zhang's ghost?" Ning Yuanxing put the teacup down and asked leisurely, "Is there any evidence to prove it?" ”

The shopkeeper knelt with the shopkeeper, lowered his head, shook his head, and said, "No, no, Master Zhang is very cautious, that day, he just recruited the villain, and then ordered me to drug your food." ”

"Huh...... Shopkeeper, what you say now is just your one-sided statement, without evidence, who will believe you? ”

The shopkeeper saw that Ning Yuanxing didn't believe it, and hurriedly shouted injustice, "Guest officer, the little one is really instructed by someone, and the villain is also an innocent person!" Master Zhang said, if I don't do what he says, I will let the villain not be able to stay in Jiangsi County, and the little one will be forced to be helpless, so he will do this kind of unconscionable thing, and ask the guest officer to spare the little one's life! ”

"Since you were forced to do so, why didn't you tell us in the first place?" Elegy indignant.

She didn't sympathize with the shopkeeper's behavior at all, if Ning Yuanxing hadn't noticed it just now, all of them would have died.

"This ...... This ......" shopkeeper was short of words for a while, and he didn't know how to refute it.

"In my opinion, he just forgot his righteousness for profit, and Master Zhang also gave him benefits, so he was blindfolded by interests!" Si Chen is worthy of being the Emperor of the Truth, he said it very accurately, and when the shopkeeper heard it, his face was white and red, and he was very good-looking.

"I... I...... Eh, open the official website of the guest, the villain has an eighty-year-old mother, and a three-year-old child, if the villain has a three-year-old and two short, our family will have to die! ”

"This line is too old, can you change it?" Si Chen plucked out his ears, and he was tired of listening to the play.

When the shopkeeper heard Si Chen say this, he stopped talking, and cried and begged for mercy directly with the shopkeeper.

Seeing that the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper were crying so hard, Elegy felt a little unbearable, she pointed to the shopkeeper and asked, "That...... Wouldn't what that man said be true? ”

"How can it be true? Si Chen was about to call the word princess, but he was warned by Si Du with his eyes, he swallowed the words that came to his mouth, and then said: "Miss, in order to win sympathy, the prisoners are talking about how miserable they are, don't believe it!" ”

"You take these two down and keep them under strict guard." Ning Yuanxing instructed the guards.

After the shopkeeper's shopkeeper and the shopkeeper were dragged away, the room finally quieted down.

"So what now? Go directly to the yamen and arrest Master Zhang? Elegy asked.

"Don't worry, we don't have evidence in our hands yet, and we don't know much about the ins and outs of the whole thing, so don't act rashly."

"So what now? Just waiting? "The elegy is not calm, now it's just poisoning, so what's next time?

Ning Yuanxing was much calmer, and he said leisurely: "What's the hurry? If nothing else, tonight, then there will be action. ”

"Huh? They? Is it Master Zhang? Could it be that they will not be able to assassinate? Elegy was stunned.

She was actually a little puzzled, why did Master Zhang order someone to poison them? It stands to reason that the matter of the bandits has already settled, even if you are dissatisfied, it should have been a while ago, and it is only now that you think of the assassination, don't you think it's too late?

She glanced at Ning Yuanxing, but the other party didn't react much, as if she was used to this kind of thing.

"Ning Yuanxing, aren't you really worried? If it's really necessary, it's not like I can't let Si Du Si Chen protect you. ”

Ning Yuanxing couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard this, he looked at her and said, "The princess still takes care of herself." ”

"Uh...... You're really okay, aren't you? "Elegy is still not at ease, what if the other party sends a very powerful killer?

"Hehe, when did the princess care about Weichen, it's really flattering." I don't know if it's an illusion, Elegy always feels that Ning Yuanxing's words have a strong taste of ridicule.

Her face froze, and she secretly scolded Ning Yuanxing for not knowing good people's hearts, "Who cares about you?" It's just that if you do it on the southern patrol again, I'll be very troublesome, don't be sentimental! ”

"Heh, it's really Weichen's own affection." Ning Yuanxing smiled faintly, and then stood up.

"Are you going back to your house?" Seeing him get up, Elegy couldn't help but ask, does he really want to be backbone?

"Doesn't the princess hate to see her courtiers?" Ning Yuanxing said lightly, "If you're hungry, just buy something to eat outside, it's better not to eat anything in this inn, go to bed early before anyone arrives." ”

After Ning Yuanxing finished speaking, he left, leaving the three of them in the house.

If Elegy Zhao Ning traveled far away, he asked Si Chen to go out and buy some dry food, and after the three of them ate, they rested early.

In the dead of night, when the last light in Jiangji County was extinguished, several flying black shadows flew up the wall and came to the inn where the elegy was, and when the black shadow flashed outside the window, the elegy opened its eyes.

She stood up, dressed neatly, and Si Chen and Si Du were by her side.

And the first thing that made the movement was the direction of Ning Yuanxing's house. (To be continued......)
