Looking at the people speaking in the audience, Gong Zhijin's tone became tougher and more indifferent, "Where did you put the items?" ”

"Back to the prince, the villain hid them at home, and the prince could send someone to fetch them, all of them were complete and not touched at all. Ask the prince to be merciful! ”

The man said these words in a trembling voice, and his face was already blue with fright. If he wanted the idea of stealing, let him know that this medicine shop was in the name of King Yan, even if he was given a hundred dares, he would not dare to be a thief!

"Huh." Gong Zhijin snorted coldly, just because of him, he and Qiao Niannian had to spend time and energy dealing with what he had committed, and this alone could make him disappear from this world.

"Drag it off."

After saying a word to the guards on both sides, Gong Zhijin turned around again. The desolate voice behind him shouted through the sky, but Gongzhijin was not moved at all.

Soon, Jin Xin Pavilion fell silent. This obvious contrast makes the current environment even more gloomy.

The thief was taken to his house without remorse, and then he took out all the stolen property and medicinal herbs.

"You go and ask the princess for your guilt, as for how to punish you, it's all up to Princess Qiao."

said without regret with a blank face. This was what King Yan meant, if the thief suddenly disappeared, with Qiao Niannian's intelligence, he would definitely be suspicious.

The man immediately fell to his knees, the fear on his face palpable. I actually worked as a buddy in the pharmacy under the name of King Yan for so many days, and basically saw King Yan and Princess Yan every day, I felt very scared when I thought about it.

"Princess...... The princess must be a gentle ......."

Constantly muttering, the man trembled all over, and he probably didn't even have the strength to stand up.

Hearing him say this, he didn't regret sneering, "The princess doesn't know that this medicine shop belongs to King Yan, if you dare to reveal half a word, or call her the princess directly, then you don't need the princess to deal with you." ”

"Yes, yes."

The man was dragged to his feet, and after a few more words of instruction to him without regret, he was soon able to basically return to his previous appearance, at least he could still walk.

He walked into the medicine shop alone, and saw Qiao Niannian interrogating the next person, although the face was covered with a veil, but the person could see the indifference on her face without the slightest sense of pity.

"Tom!"

The man approached Qiao Niannian, and then suddenly knelt on the ground.

"Miss Qiao, I'm sorry, it's me who stole it."

didn't dare to look at Qiao Niannian's eyes, the man just knelt and looked at the ground, and his whole body began to tremble again.

Qiao Niannian was slightly shocked by this person's behavior, but quickly regained his emotions and began to look at it instead. Because she has the ability to recognize people at a glance, she can't be mistaken, this person is one of the people who just recruited some time ago.

"Oh? Tell me, why do you do this? ”

The coldness in his tone made the man's back sweat break out, Qiao Niannian changed his sitting position, and then let the people who had just been interrogated go down, and in the whole room, except for Qiao Niannian and Yan Yan, it was this person.

"Damn it, the villain will suddenly come up with this dirty idea. It's just that there are old and young people in the family, and they all live on their own money, but what kind of money can the villain have, there is really no way. I hope the girl will be gracious! ”

The man said this in a trembling voice, his heart full of guilt and fear. Unrepentant had told him before that he could not lie except about the Yan King. So even though it seems to be a voluntary surrender, I can't make up some sympathetic words.

But there is no way, if King Yan knows that he is lying, then even if he survives in front of the princess, he will not be able to escape from King Yan's palm.

"Then you have no choice but to do so."

Qiao Niannian listened to his statement, and his heart was not moved in the slightest. There are more poor people in the world, and if you are willing to work hard, then you will not be reduced to having to steal to survive. Those who steal must be lucky, but these people are hateful.

"Yes, yes, yes, I hope the girl is gracious, the villain has already taken the stolen item, and it has not been used at all. The villain really can't help it. ”

When the man saw that Qiao Niannian was relieved, he immediately wanted to climb to her feet, hoping that she would forgive him. But Qiao Niannian looked at the words around him, and said that he would understand the hypocrisy, and pushed back a few steps back the person who was about to touch Qiao Niannian's clothes.

"Take this pill."

This has long been prepared for thieves. Qiao Niannian's eyes closed slightly, and his gaze moved elsewhere. His time is not something he can waste, and although the theft has not been spread because of the timely handling, the pharmacy has not opened today because he wants to find out the person who stole it, who will bear the loss?

Inevitably, the thieves should be punished.

"This ......"

Before the man could speak, a pill was stuffed into his mouth, and he was forced to swallow it.

"It's just poison." Qiao Niannian's expression did not change at all, and his tone was indifferent, he stood up and looked at the man, "Since you have been in the medicine shop for so many days, then I will give you this antidote." But you have to give something. ”

Qiao Niannian is not very familiar with this ancient medicinal material, and in modern times, there is no need for such medicine. So, there is a small part of the medicine that needs to have an experimental subject.

Because he was forcibly poisoned, the man looked at Qiao Niannian with a look of despair. Empty, without any expression. After Qiao Niannian told him his thoughts, his whole body softened.

This kind of fate, although he did not expect, was extremely painful.

"How?"

There was already a buzz in his mind, and when the man heard these two words, it was like five thunderbolts, making him dizzy.

Seeing that he didn't react at all, Yan Yan wanted to pick up the stick beside him, but was stopped by Qiao Niannian.

"It's okay, the effect of this medicine will kick in immediately, and he will naturally react when the time comes."

Qiao Niannian sat back in her place, and then waited quietly, as she expected, the man immediately convulsed after a few seconds, the corners of his mouth were constantly foaming, and his whole body showed a sense of pain.

"Solution...... Antidote! ”

The man immediately opened his mouth, and the confusion he had just had just disappeared completely, and his desire to survive continued to strengthen. He turned to look at Qiao Niannian, who was sitting upright in his chair and didn't say a word.

"I agree! No matter what your girl asks the villain to do, the villain will not complain! ”

Hearing this, Qiao Niannian's face just now went down, and instead of it, it was a kind of ridicule that had long expected the result. This kind of person will not have any other thoughts than begging for mercy.

"Okay, let's take it with you."

Qiao Niannian said to the words on the side, then stood up again and walked towards the door, even if the person shouted for an antidote, she didn't pay attention to it at all.

It's getting late now, and it's going to be a little wrong to come out every day during this time.

Qiao Niannian thought that it would be better to stay in the Yanwang Mansion in the past few days. As for the matter of this medicine shop, I will hand it over to Yan Pseudo and that Liang Gongzi to take care of it, anyway, I have already explained all the methods to Yan Falsehood, and I just need to see the results in the next few days.

An hour later, Qiao Niannian returned to the mansion.

Because he didn't let Yun'er accompany him to the pharmacy today, as soon as he arrived at the room, Yun'er immediately came up to inquire about the situation.

After talking about the general situation, Yun'er was very surprised.

"Why did that man take the initiative to plead guilty?"

Yun'er stirred the towel for Qiao Niannian and said her own questions. Naturally, Qiao Niannian also had such doubts, but this was not a big problem, as long as the criminal was that person and the items were returned, she didn't want to think about anything else.

"Maybe I saw that the situation was wrong, and I thought that if I took the initiative, the end would be better."

Qiao Niannian said nonchalantly, and after washing up, he planned to **. And Yun'er didn't bother her anymore and took her face out.

And on Gongzhijin's side.

There were a few candles lit in the room, and he was thinking about the news that the person who came from the medicine shop today would report to him.

Although he knew that Qiao Niannian was not a very compassionate and soft-hearted person, which was why he would hand over the thief to her to deal with, he didn't expect that Qiao Niannian would actually use him as a person to test the poison, this method is indeed ruthless and decisive.

However, if you deal with it yourself, you must kill him.

"This Qiao Niannian, how many things are hidden in his heart."

In the past few days, although Gong Zhijin has known a lot about Qiao Niannian's temperament, he feels that Qiao Niannian is not as simple as he sees.

Gongzhi Jin suddenly appeared in his mind Qiao Niannian's figure, and what impressed him the most was her calm and arrogant appearance. I have to say that her personality is indeed a little similar to herself.

A few days later.

Because Gongzhijin made time to follow Qiao Niannian when he went to the pharmacy. Since he learned that she hadn't left the house recently, he often went to the study to deal with the recent accumulated affairs.

After dealing with today's affairs. Thinking that the weather was not bad today, Gongzhijin suddenly had a hint of Yaxing and wanted to go to the garden for a walk.

I don't know what Qiao Niannian has been doing lately.

After the garden was built, Gongzhi Jin went there only a handful of times. As soon as he learned that he was going to the garden, he was a little surprised that it was autumn after all, and there was nothing pleasing to the eye in the garden. But when he saw that he was so elegant, he did not say anything else, but turned and went out, and prepared the carriage.

On the way to your own garden, you will pass by Wei Yixuan. Gong Zhijin pulled the curtain on the carriage a little, but what he saw was the open door, but there was no one inside.

Gong Zhijin frowned and put down the curtain, and his face couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

When he got to the garden, he got out of the carriage, and the chrysanthemums in the garden were blooming beautifully. However, there are not many varieties of this flower, and Gongzhijin walked towards the pavilion in the lake.

After sitting down, the servants brought up the fruit bowl and teapot, and after pouring the cup in front of Gongzhijin with tea, they moved to the side to serve.

Looking at the scenery of this garden, although it is not as beautiful as in spring, it is also comfortable because it is well maintained.

Gong Zhijin picked up a book and began to read it intently.

But who knows, Qiao Niannian and the others are also walking towards the garden.

"Madam, there is a carriage in the house, why don't you sit and come over?"

Yun'er was very puzzled, it would take a long time to walk from Wei Yixuan to the garden, and if you took a carriage, you could get there in less than half an hour.

"I've been eating a little indigestible lately, so I'm naturally going to go."

Qiao Niannian looked at the scenery and sighed. Recently, she has gained a lot of weight these days because she can't eat, and if it weren't for this reason, she wouldn't have walked such a long way in vain.

As soon as she arrived at the garden, Qiao Niannian saw chrysanthemums blooming well.

"This flower is really bright. It seems that the people who take care of the garden have a good craft. ”

In modern times, she has not been able to appreciate such beautiful chrysanthemums, so when she saw this scene, she felt very comfortable.
