"Fortunately, my Da'an Dynasty still has His Royal Highness Dingwang, otherwise, I really don't know who to rely on to protect this northeast." The city lord said to Duan Bailan while drinking wine.

Duan Bailan and the city lord clashed glasses, "It is my Duan Bailan's responsibility to protect the people of Da'an. ”

In the past, Liu Nianru had already gone to sleep at this time, but today she followed Duan Bailan to have a banquet in the City Lord's Mansion. Gu Huan wrote a letter to the emperor at this time in the past, but today he saw that Liu Nianru hadn't slept yet, but he left for a while.

Duan Bailan saw it clearly, and after sending someone to follow Gu Huan, he continued to eat and drink with the city lord. It's rare that Gu Huan is not around, Liu Nianru is more relaxed, and she can't help drinking a lot of wine for a while.

Tonight, all the guests were happy, and the 5,000 soldiers of the Northern Army finally had a big meal, not to mention that they had to face the enemy, and they didn't know if they could still have their lives to come back, so they were all open to eat and drink tonight.

Duan Bailan saw that the soldiers were happy, so he didn't say anything.

……

At three o'clock in the sun, Liu Nianru woke up quietly, and it seemed that she had indeed drunk a lot of wine yesterday.

Duan Bailan woke up earlier than Liu Nianru, frowning at this time, looking very distressed.

Liu Nianru hurriedly walked over and asked what was wrong.

"The soldiers were unconscious, and they couldn't wake up." Duan Bailan said.

Liu Nianru hadn't paid attention to it yet, just because the soldier had drunk too much and hadn't sobered up yet, at this time, listening to Duan Bailan's words, he hurriedly called a few people to try it, and sure enough, they all fell unconscious, and it was useless to splash two basins of water.

"Poisoned?" Liu Nianru asked.

"It should be."

"Could it be the city lord, after all, he was so enthusiastic yesterday, I guess there is a problem in the wine, everyone drank yesterday." Liu Nianru guessed.

"Probably not. We also drank alcohol. And...... I just saw that the city lord had also fallen into a coma. Duan Bailan replied, which made Liu Nianru even more puzzled.

"Who could that be?" The two of them fell into deep thought again.

While the two were talking, Gu Huan also walked out of the room, and the two glanced at each other, could it be him?

"What's wrong?" Gu Huan noticed that the eyes of the two people looking at him were not quite right, and hurriedly asked.

"They were all unconscious." Liu Nianru pointed to some soldiers who had not returned to the room yesterday, and they had fallen on the floor of the City Lord's Mansion at this moment.

"You suspect I did it?" Seeing this, Gu Huan knew why these two people looked at him like that. But it's also true that I'm the most likely person.

"Yes." Liu Nianru directly admitted that she did not hide her suspicion of Gu Huan at all, Gu Huan shrugged helplessly and said nothing.

After a while, another person walked over, "Your Highness, why didn't they move?" Did you drink too much yesterday? "It's Duan Bailan's lieutenant Chen Qin.

"Vice General Chen, are you okay?" Liu Nianru raised her eyebrows and looked at Chen Qin.

"What's the matter? Why can't they even scream? Chen Qin still looked puzzled, and it didn't seem that he had figured out the situation yet.

"They're poisoned." Liu Nianru said helplessly.

"What? Poisoned? What kind of poison, can it be solved? Who poisoned it? Chen Qin was shocked when he heard this. Yesterday was fine

It's good to drink wine, why is it poisoned today?

Liu Nianru sighed, she didn't really want to talk to Chen Qin anymore.

"Since you said it wasn't you who poisoned it, let's investigate?" Duan Bailan's tone was cold, and he didn't look very friendly.

Gu Huan nodded, and went to check yesterday's meal.

"I'll go out and take a look." Liu Nianru said, Duan Bailan stayed in the City Lord's Mansion to inspect and monitor Gu Huan.

It didn't take long for Liu Nianru to run back with a solemn expression. "Duan Bailan, it's not good, the people in the city are also unconscious."

Hearing this, Duan Bailan immediately went out to check, and Chen Qin and Gu Huan also followed.

The streets were full of people who had fallen to the ground. In all kinds of postures, I can't wake up.

Duan Bailan thought for a while and said, "Gu Huan, and Chen Qin, you two stay here and settle them, and Ru'er and I will come as soon as we go." After that, Duan Bailan took Liu Nianru and left.

Gu Huan didn't chase after him, he knew what the top priority was now.

"You say, is this going on against the people in lockdown, or is it about us?" The two already knew where the poison came from. The same thing that everyone in lockdown will come into contact with is only water.

Someone poisoned the water source, but I don't know if this person is targeting his own people or the people who are locked down from the city. But the people are generally not targeted, so the most likely is to target them with a large-scale poisoning, and even bring the people who are locked down.

"I guess it's probably barbarians." Duan Bailan said.

The barbarians, that is, the enemies that Duan Bailan had to face when he went to the northeast this time. The enemy must have received the news that he was going to lead the Northern Army to the expedition, so this time it was likely that the barbarians poisoned the Northern Army.

The emperor is unlikely, after all, the closure of the city belongs to his land no matter how it is said, and no one can get along with his own people.

"This kind of large-scale poisoning toxin is generally not very strong, not to mention that the water source of the lockdown is living water, which dilutes the toxin even more, let's find some antidote leftover from last time to try it." Duan Bailan continued to analyze.

Liu Nianru agreed, and followed Duan Bailan to get the medicine.

However, when the two returned...... And they all woke up.

Duan Bailan looked at the scene in front of him and fell into deep thought.

They all woke up on their own......

Since it can make people unconscious and can't wake up no matter how you call it, it must not be a slight toxin, but after a while, everyone woke up.

"Your Highness, you and Miss Liu woke up on their own not long after they left. Gu Huan knew medical skills, he checked the soldiers, there was no problem, and the soldiers only felt that they had slept and had nothing else to do. Oh yes, and the people on the street are doing it too. Chen Qin saw Duan Bailan's thoughtful look, and without waiting for Duan Bailan to ask, he directly reported first.

Liu Nianru glanced at it, Gu Huan was still checking the soldiers, which made Liu Nianru less repulsive to Gu Huan.

All members were unconscious...... Leaving only Duan Bailan and the few principals, it seems that the other party does not want to kill his group directly, but to give himself a warning

Yes.

Tell Duan Bailan that he has poison that can make them die en masse.

Duan Bailan hooked her lips, in this way, there was nothing to be afraid of, and she also reminded herself that it was best to check everything before eating in the future.

After explaining a few words to the soldiers and making sure that the big guys were all right, Duan Bailan reorganized the team, politely refused the warm invitation of the city lord, and decided to rush to the Northeast to meet the group of barbarians as soon as possible.

And...... I received news today that Liangcheng in the northeast has been captured by the barbarians, which has further promoted Duan Bailan's march.
