Chapter 927: Prelude to Chaos
Leaving the second child at home, Gansong was much more restrained.
Although she doesn't usually talk much, but now that Xiao Er is here, she doesn't want to show up even more when she eats.
Wen Qingzhu didn't say her identity, but just arranged for Feitian to bring her food out.
After eating, without Wen Qingzhu's orders, Beidou and Feitian consciously kept vigil.
Zuo Bingning couldn't sleep a little, and originally wanted to talk to Wen Qingzhu, but when he turned his head, Wen Qingzhu's breathing was long and peaceful.
In desperation, she had no choice but to hold on.
The time slowly came to the middle of the night, and there was movement outside the tent.
Zuo Bingning woke up all of a sudden, and when he was about to get up, he was grabbed by Wen Qingzhu and said in a low voice: "Don't move, Beidou will solve the matter outside!" ”
"Can Beidou solve it?" Zuo Bingning is still not at ease, she has spent more days in the Huns than Wen Qingzhu, so she is naturally more afraid of the Huns.
Wen Qingzhu held her down: "Not only Beidou is outside, Feitian and his sister will also go out, in terms of using poison, no one is more powerful than Gansong." ”
After listening to her words, Zuo Bingning slowly quieted down.
The movement outside became louder and louder, and suddenly there were a few muffled snorts, and the sound disappeared.
I waited for about half an hour, and there was no movement outside.
Zuo Bingning breathed a sigh of relief and was about to say something to Wen Qingzhu, but found that Wen Qingzhu had fallen asleep again.
However, thinking that before, Wen Qingzhu seemed to wake up before her, Zuo Bingning felt that maybe she was pretending to be asleep.
So he gently pushed Wen Qingzhu, but what he got was Wen Qingzhu's confused answer: "Sleep, it's really fine, Beidou is really powerful......"
Zuo Bingning had no choice but to say nothing, turned his head and began to try to sleep.
When there were human voices outside, Zuo Bingning turned around and found that Wen Qingzhu had already gotten up, and she hurriedly got up.
When he came outside, he saw the old man from yesterday standing outside the door, and several people followed him.
Wen Qingzhu stood at the door, talking to them.
"Last night, there were also thieves on my side, but they were repelled by my people, and there is no damage at present, did you have two more deaths on your side?"
The old man nodded: "It's still the same situation as the baby yesterday, so I want to come over and ask about Xiao Er, since he is fine, then there is nothing to do on my side." ”
Wen Qingzhu was silent for a moment: "Aren't you planning to report this matter?" ”
"Now that something has happened in Aquila City, the second prince is anxious, how dare we disturb him with such a trivial matter."
The old man shook his head, looking very helpless.
Someone standing behind the old man interjected, "Isn't there an adult here?" They were fine last night, can't they help us? ”
"yes, yes! Why can't they help us! ”
"That's it! Xiao Er has been doing things for them! ”
"They can't just leave!"
Things are going more and more strangely, and Wen Qingzhu's face is also cold.
The old man scolded loudly on crutches: "This is our business, it has nothing to do with adults!" Don't get out of here! ”
Wen Qingzhu watched them sing and harmonize, and his heart became a little interested.
You must know that the Huns have always come directly, and today they seem to have come to sell miserably.
The young man behind the old man argued up and down, but eventually fell silent.
Among them, Wen Qingzhu never said a word.
The old man bowed down to apologize, Wen Qingzhu hurriedly helped him up, and after a while, he pondered and said, "Actually, it's not completely impossible, but this method is a bit risky." ”
"Your Excellency, just say." The old man was very excited, he didn't expect Wen Qingzhu to be willing to help them.
Wen Qingzhu glanced at the crowd behind the old man and said, "That's it, there are too many people here, you let them go back first, if you want to discuss the matter, I will discuss it with you, many people know that these things are not good." ”
"That's good." The old man could feel that Wen Qingzhu really wanted to help them.
Waving his hand to let everyone retreat, Wen Qingzhu took the visitor to his tent.
During this period, some people were worried and wanted to keep up, but under Wen Qingzhu's eyes, the old man still asked them to forcibly retreat.
When he got to the tent and sat down, Zuo Bingning came over with tea and stood behind Wen Qingzhu.
The old man looked at her, but said nothing.
Wen Qingzhu said directly to him: "Old man, I won't tell you anything, the people who came to my side yesterday are actually not very powerful, but they are quite accomplished in the use of poisons, especially some common poisons in the Huns, and they are very experienced in using them." ”
"It's not quite right, there are very few people who can heal the Huns, and even fewer people who poison them, the vast majority of people are poisoned by accident, or they don't notice the poison around them, only a few people can be poisoned, and it's very rough, yesterday's thing, I also thought about it, it doesn't feel like it was done by the Huns, but it looks like it was done by the Qi people!"
The old man touched his beard, and his expression was very solemn.
Wen Qingzhu was silent, and the old man could see this, which showed that he still had some ability.
She asked, "The old man also knows how to heal?" ”
The old man laughed silently: "My little ability is all gained from decades of experience, where is the medical skill, at most it can cure some headaches and brain fever, bandage the trauma or something." ”
"But the old man is still very powerful, you can see that yesterday's problem is still different from ordinary people." Wen Qingzhu praised it sincerely.
The old man pondered for a moment and said: "This is just my opinion, you say that you are a person who uses poison very strongly, listen to what you mean, it is our people who did it?" ”
"Well, I say that because I found evidence on my side." Wen Qingzhu turned his head and asked Zuo Bingning to bring a cloth bag over.
Placed on the table, Wen Qingzhu slowly opened it, and there was a broken blade inside.
Wen Qingzhu handed it over to the old man: "Look, the knife used by the people who came here yesterday was left by my people, the old man is well-informed, you can take a look, where does this knife come from?" ”
The old man picked up the short knife and looked at it carefully, and the more he looked at him, the more solemn his eyes became. Seeking Chinese
Seeing that he seemed to see something, Wen Qingzhu opened his mouth and asked: "I won't say much, this knife is definitely not something that Qi people can have, so I can be so sure." ”
The old man put down the knife and said for a long time: "This knife is indeed not something that Qi people can have." ”
"Does the old man know where this knife came from?" Wen Qingzhu took the opportunity to ask.
This time, the old man raised his head and looked at her: "Don't you know, adults?" ”
Wen Qingzhu laughed: "I really don't know, that's why I came to ask the old man." ”
"It's the knife of the Ahsan tribe."
The old man finally said it, Wen Qingzhu was not surprised, he had such a ability to use poison, and the weapons were excellent, which was not something that ordinary Huns could do.
After careful calculation, the matter appeared here in Aquila City, and it was definitely not the second prince.
That's either the fourth prince or the sixth prince.
Now that the fourth prince has just moved out, and now he wants to stabilize the tribe in the White Wolf Mountain, so he definitely doesn't have time to take care of things here.
So only the sixth prince has this leisure.
Wen Qingzhu's face relaxed: "It seems that the old man also saw the source of this knife, and now I have also thought clearly, I can't afford to provoke the sixth prince, so I will go to the city as soon as possible, as for the outside of the city, the old man can wait, wait for an opportunity, the second prince has a chance to go out of the city." ”
"The second prince will go out of the city at this juncture?" The old man was a little unconvinced.
Wen Qingzhu looked at him deeply and said, "Old man, don't worry, what kind of person the second prince is, you know better than me, he is not a person who is in the turtle shell." ”
After sending the old man away, Wen Qingzhu sat at the table and looked at the short knife on the table.
After a while, the earth egg came in with Beidou.
Wen Qingzhu then stood up and asked, "Are your injuries okay?" ”
Beidou shook his head, and Wen Qingzhu knew that he would not be paranoid, so he asked him to sit down.
Feitian came in and saw Wen Qingzhu nodding at him, so he went to bring Xiao Er out.
Xiao Er, who just woke up, was still in a daze, obviously still a little uncomfortable.
He looked at the people in the tent and felt as if he was getting up too late: "I, I'm not going to sleep?" ”
Wen Qingzhu beckoned him to come over and sit down: "You come and sit down, there is something I need to tell you." ”
Xiao Er came over and sat down nervously, always feeling that something big had happened.
Sure enough, Wen Qingzhu told him the news that someone had died outside.
Xiao Er was shocked into a cold sweat, among the two people who died last night, there was actually another acquaintance of his.
Plus the first one, that's the two of them!
Wen Qingzhu watched his expression change, and saw that the heat was almost the same, so he asked, "Xiao Er, tell me, who brought you in to be the middleman in the first place?" ”
"Yes...... It's ......" Xiao Er didn't think about it for a while.
Wen Qingzhu comforted him and said: "Don't worry, you think slowly, I'm not in a hurry here, but it's obvious that you are being targeted, so you stay here and don't leave." ”
Xiao Er nodded again and again, but he asked again the next second: "My second uncle will be fine, right?" ”
"At present, he is in the city, and it should not be affected." Wen Qingzhu pondered and said, according to the news from her side, those people should also go to the city.
Wen Qingzhu took the soil egg to go around the barracks, and now the news of the continuous death has been all over the place.
Most people were trying to find a way to enter the city, and Wen Qingzhu could only shake his head regretfully.
It's not going to be that safe in the city right now.
Maybe it's worse than it is now.
In the afternoon, Zuo Bingning rode over and shouted from afar: "My lord! My lord! ”
Wen Qingzhu hurriedly stepped forward with the soil egg, Zuo Bingning turned over and dismounted, and hurriedly said: "It's Lu Ce, he has news!" It is said that the second prince killed an old minister of the former king this morning! Now the palace is in chaos. ”
"It's okay! You come with me to the entrance first. Wen Qingzhu immediately followed Zuo Bingning back.
It soon became clear that the entrance and exit had been completely closed.
Wen Qingzhu returned to his tent and soon found that the neighbors around him were packing up.
It is clear that quite a few people have received the news and are preparing to flee here.
She entered the tent, and Feitian immediately stepped forward: "Sister's poison has worked!" Are we going to follow the trend and leave now? ”
"Nope! Let's go into town! Wen Qingzhu immediately made a decision.
Feitian and Beidou are both people who listen to commands, so they don't have any opinions.
Gan Song wanted to say something, but unfortunately she knew that she was not trusted now, and she did not dare to speak indiscriminately.
In the end, only Zuo Bingning was left, she had a good relationship with Wen Qingzhu, and asked bluntly: "Why do we want to go into the city?" ”
"Of course, it's to solve the big trouble in the second prince!" Wen Qingzhu smiled.
They waited patiently until noon, when the entrance and exit were finally opened.
People are constantly leaving the city, and the situation is too turbulent.
Seeing that the people on the periphery were panicking, Wen Qingzhu and the place where they lived was fine, not a very central location, so they would not be hit by the flow of people.
About two hours later, there was a lot less crowding.
Wen Qingzhu soon felt that the army was about to move, and hurriedly took Zuo Bingning and them to pack up their things and go to the capital immediately.
At the entrance, someone who looked like a general asked, "Why are you in the capital at this time?" ”
"This is our token." Wen Qingzhu didn't say anything, only handed over the token.
