Chapter 50: Sixty Sticks

"That's right, Marshal, this poisoner, instead of choosing lethal poison, chose non-lethal frost herbs, which shows that he doesn't want the lives of these soldiers. It should not be the work of an enemy country. Yuan Hao said. If it is an enemy country, wouldn't the deadly poison come more painfully?

That's it, Jing Yuan is right, these conspiracies and tricks can't guarantee that they will encounter them in the future, and there is nothing wrong with getting in touch earlier.

"Jing Yuan, you treat the investigation in the army, Yuan Hao and I will go to the General's Mansion."

Before the two of them, Mo Ze had already taken people with him, and hurried back to the house first.

If Xi is not a extravagant person, there are few maids in the house. In addition, Bai Yitian was happy and quiet, and after living here, Ruoxi laid off some people. So with the addition of the housekeeper and Qingyue, there are only eleven or twelve people standing in the yard.

"Moze, what's wrong? Why is there such a big battle, and he brought back soldiers. Lu Wan came out of the inner room in a panic, and as soon as she came out, she saw a courtyard of soldiers. Bai Tiantian returned to Rongxing Hall, Ruochen was looked at by Ruoxi, and Lu Wan was the only one left in the house.

"It's okay, don't be afraid, you go back to the room first."

"Butler, are all the people in the house here?" This matter involved the General's Mansion, and Ruoxi was not good to come forward, so he brought Yuan Hao with him to preside over the trial.

The housekeeper Li Bo is an old man, and Yun Si has been in the house since he was in charge, and he has always been safe and reliable. "General Hui, a gardener quit his job three days ago and went back to his hometown to take care of his sick mother, and the rest are all here, all of them have been working in the house for more than ten years."

"Back home?" At this juncture, there will be ghosts when you go home. Yuan Hao subconsciously looked at Ruoxi, and saw that the latter was meaningless, so he quickly gave an order.

"Mo Ze, you know the gardener, quickly lead someone to hunt down. Song Cheng, take these people down and interrogate them carefully. ”

This matter, the emperor has a deadline of three days to find out, otherwise he will be questioned for the crime. Yuan Hao also held his breath and vowed to find out.

"Marshal, it can already be determined that the gardener did it, as long as the gardener is caught, it can prove Ruochen's innocence."

Ruoxi had been blowing cold wind by the pavilion all night. Listening to Yuan Hao's report, there was no wave, "Yuan Hao, you are tired for a day today, I asked Qingyue to clean up the guest room and go to rest early." Tell Moze that the gardener doesn't have to chase him. ”

"Marshal!" Yuan Hao didn't understand why Ruoxi was like this suddenly, and wanted to persuade again, "Okay, go and rest, I'm tired." ”

Because Ruochen was involved in this matter, Ruoxi was concerned about it, and he lost his square inch for a while, calm down and think about it, the best result of this matter may be the end of it.

Although Ruoxi was not allowed to pursue it, Jing Yuan and Yuan Hao still found the gardener behind Ruoxi's back, but unfortunately, the person was already dead, and no clues were left at the scene.

The three-day period given by the emperor has also arrived.

This black cauldron finally let Nancang carry it. Because of dereliction of duty, Ruoxi received sixty military sticks in front of the soldiers and handed over the seal of the new army commander.

"Marshal, this matter is obviously not done by Nan Cang! And you are also innocent, why punish you and humiliate you like this! Ruoxi took the blame down, Yuan Hao and Qin Jingyuan were not only fine, but also because of the meritorious training of the new army, each had their own canonization, Qin Jingyuan replaced Ruoxi in charge of the handsome seal, served as the commander of the new army, and Yuan Hao was the deputy marshal.

Yuan Hao's heartbroken look, I don't know, I thought he had received a military stick.

Gently wiped away the tears on Yuan Hao's face, and comforted: "The men bleed and didn't shed tears, they were all deputy marshals of the First Army, crying and crying, so that the soldiers could see what it looked like." ”

"This new army was originally trained for the two of you. Jing Yuan is steady, has a strong sense of the overall situation, and is handsome; And Yuan Hao, brave, quick to react, strong adaptability, is a rare general. I'm relieved to have both of you at the helm of the new army. ”

At this time, the two didn't know that this new army was just a stepping stone for them, and in the future, Ruoxi would entrust the military of Liguo to their shoulders.

"This thing is rotten in the stomach, he is Nan Cang's doing. This is the result that everyone wants to see, and it is also the result that is good for everyone. ”

"Remember, you and I are warriors, and the greatest humiliation is for the enemy to set foot on your land!"

In fact, at the beginning, Ruoxi also thought that someone was trying to frame him and hinder the process of training the new army, until it was confirmed that it was the gardener's secret hands, Ruoxi understood how this scene should be played.

The real corner of this scene should be the one in the East Palace.

"Okay, it's not life and death, it's all officials in the same dynasty, and there are opportunities to meet." Looking at the two teenagers who insisted on sending themselves to the gate of the camp, in the past few months, they have grown at an almost visible speed, and they have become more and more heroic.

Turn over, get on your horse, and whip up.

Ruoxi probably didn't know that on that day, she obviously received sixty military sticks and snow-dyed clothes, but she still stood up and stood tall on horseback, which left a deep impression on the hearts of the two teenagers.

"This is the backbone of the Red Flame Army, the backbone of the Liguo."

The real sixty pear wooden sticks, even if Ruoxi can carry it and endure it again, the pain is real.

"If Ruochen didn't know that you wouldn't be able to take good care of your wounds and let me come over, would you still be going to carry it yourself?" Because of this incident, Ruochen felt that he had caused his sister to cry a lot, or Ruoxi had to stop his tears. Ruoxi was afraid of scaring him, and said that he would not let him treat his wounds. Ruochen invited Leng Rui over.

The wound on his back, Ruoxi didn't deal with it at all, a few buckets of cold water went down to wash away the bloodstains, and it was considered to be treated. After such a friction of the clothing, it is quite troublesome to handle.

Ruoxi moved his body and changed to a comfortable position. "I haven't suffered any injuries on the battlefield, and the sixty sticks are not in the way."

"Yes, it's not in the way, it's just that the military stick is heavy, hurts the lungs, suffers internal injuries, and hurts in a cold sweat, that's all."

Ruoxi smiled and said nothing, knowing that Leng Rui was deliberately squeezing her.

As far as she is concerned, as long as she doesn't die, it's nothing.

The hospital does not participate in politics, so Leng Rui will not ask about the affairs of the court. This little junior sister has been resolute and has ideas since she was a child, and I believe she can handle these things. Leng Rui is worried about other things.

"Ruoxi, you yourself know medicine, you have been fighting all year round, and with the cruel training of the dark group, your body has suffered a lot of losses. You don't think now, when you are older, you will suffer. ”

"Senior brother, don't worry, I have a sense of proportion."

Future? I'm afraid I won't live to that time.

Ruoxi never dared to say this to Leng Rui, this senior brother, when he became serious, he was even more terrifying than the master.

"By the way, the poisoned dagger you gave me last time, as well as the poison in Concubine Jing and Gu Yunping, from the perspective of poison-making techniques, it is indeed from the hand of one person, but the poison in the grain in Yangcheng last time, the miasma, and the frost herbs were definitely not concocted by one person.

Last time, after Ruochen reminded him, Ruoxi remembered that the dagger he was holding at that time was quenched with poison. It's just that Ruochen is pure in nature, and his mind is not completely controlled by medicine. In a daze, he dropped the dagger into the water. diluted most of the toxicity, otherwise Ruoxi would have died a long time ago.

Ruoxi felt that in the layers of fog, a glimmer of light was revealed. At that time, everyone took it for granted that King Cheng was the mastermind behind it, and King Cheng also made a wedding dress for people.

Then there is a reasonable explanation for the violent death of the king. It's not that it's hard to express, it's just that I'm afraid that I'm being harmed.

From this point of view, the matter of Yangcheng really has nothing to do with Situ Ao. It's just that the poison of Yangcheng can be from the hand of one person with Baicao Frost?

Ruoxi felt that he had just seen the light of day, and then he fell into a fog again.

The dead gardener was Nangong Shuihua's secret agent left in the General's Mansion, so Ruoxi always thought that this matter was the prince's handiwork. But now it seems that it was not the crown prince's doing.

Could it be that there are forces from Nancang in the army? Ruoxi felt that it was a mess now, and he couldn't figure it out.

"If you don't understand, don't think about it. When people are injured and have a fever, they are naturally sluggish. Leng Rui looked at Ruoxi and persuaded with a sad look.

Leng Rui is right, this person does things neatly, and after a few things, he almost didn't leave any clues for Ruoxi, and he was very deep.

However, it finally exposed Situ Ao's wolf ambitions. As the saying goes, if you go outside, you must first settle inside, solve the scourge of Situ Ao first, and then it's not too late to deal with Nancang's secret agents.

The matter of the new army did not make much waves, mainly because a few people who wanted to stir up trouble were suppressed by Ruoxi with thunderous means.

"Ling Ruoxi has already begun to suspect you, she is secretly investigating you."

In Situ Ao's study, a slender figure turned his back to Situ Ao, informing him of Ling Ruoxi's movements.

Situ Ao, the tail of the old fox, finally couldn't hide it. From the assassination of Nangong Chen, to preventing Luo Shuihua from returning to the palace, and even colluding with Xichen to get a fake prince to return to the palace, all of them are his handiwork. Situ Ao was scheming and had been hiding behind his back, letting King Cheng tear and kill in front. If it weren't for King Cheng being too wasteful and overwhelmed, he would have succeeded a long time ago.

Unexpectedly, he was cautious and cautious, and Ling Ruoxi still suspected him.

"The Lihan beside you was identified by Ling Ruochen, I advise you to deal with him as soon as possible, so as not to be caught by Ling Ruoxi."

"There is another matter, most of Ling Ruoxi's affairs are handed over to Mo Ze, and this person can use them. Her wife, Lu Wan, travels back and forth between Rongxingtang and the General's Mansion every day. There is no need to rush this matter, Ling Ruoxi shouldn't have the time to deal with you recently. ”

Situ Ao understood that Mo Ze had followed Ling Ruoxi for many years, was loyal, and was never a person who could rebel, but if this person had a weakness, it would be different.

"Let Lihan go to the torture hall to receive the punishment."

As the woman in black said, Ruoxi really didn't have the time to deal with Situ Ao, because the next day, Ruoxi was assassinated.

However, this assassination was not aimed at Ruoxi.

The crown prince was hunting in the royal hunting ground today, and he was accompanied by the sons of major families. Just in case, the emperor also specially sent a forbidden army to protect it. Unexpectedly, there was an accident.
