Chapter 401: Poison Under Their Noses
The atmosphere on the street was bleak, and Ye Jinxiao and the others found out as soon as they arrived.
Xibao poked his head out of the carriage and looked at the passer-by with a stern face, and came back with a round face.
"Girl, I have never seen such a cold look on the streets of the capital."
Ye Jinxiao had also seen it before, and he didn't say anything when he heard it, but just touched Xibao's head.
It was worse than she had imagined.
When I arrived at the study, the sound of being able to see the study was much worse.
Not only Qilu Study, but also other stores, business has been affected.
After Qing Yan got into the carriage, when he saw Ye Jin smiling, a smile popped up on his originally cold face.
"Sister Ye!"
"Hmm." Ye Jinxiao looked up and down, "It's okay if you're fine, it's best not to go out these days no matter what, you have to go out, you have to pay attention to it, do you know?" ”
"Okay."
She also mentioned before that she asked Qing Yan to go to the palace with her.
But Qing Yan refused.
The reason for refusal was not as Ye Jinxiao thought, worried about embarrassment, or causing trouble to Ye Jinxiao.
He wants to stay with his sister Ye all the time.
However, after that, his sister Ye will definitely marry the palace, and he can't let her marry from the palace, so she will be ridiculed by all the others.
In this case, before this, he must have the confidence to support Ye Jinxiao.
However, there is no need to talk to her about these thoughts.
After arriving at the Beijing restaurant, Ye Jinxiao got out of the carriage first, and after the two of them came down, they entered the restaurant together.
Ning Haochen was originally sitting in the room silently, but when he opened the door and saw the people standing outside the door, he was a little surprised, and hurriedly let people in.
"Why are you here?"
Ye Jinxiao patted his head, "It's all my fault, I was cranky a few days ago, and I forgot to ask you if there was anything strange happening." ”
"Have you been safe lately?"
"Nothing."
What happened recently has been spread among the candidates, and it is impossible for him not to know.
"You're fine."
Ning Haochen glanced at the sky, "Why don't we sit down and talk?" I asked Xiao Er to prepare some meals. ”
"Okay." Ye Jin smiled and looked at Chasing the Moon again, "Chasing the Moon, I'm bothering you to stare at it." ”
"Don't worry, girl, this matter is on me."
Ning Haochen moved a small table over, just enough for the two of them to sit down, and the rest of the people also found a place to sit under Ye Jinxiao's order.
"What the hell is going on, do you have a clue?"
"Nope."
Speaking of this, Ning Haochen's brows furrowed.
It's just that I want to take the imperial examination once, where would I have thought that so many things would happen, and even endanger my life.
"Everything happened suddenly, and few people took it seriously at first, although they reacted in the end, but it was still too late."
"Now, the restaurants where the candidates live are handled by officers and soldiers, and the meals are all in the hands of the people in the government, just to ensure the safety of the candidates."
"All the details are handled well, so these days, nothing is going on."
Hearing this, Ye Jinxiao knew what Xiao Yanzhi was busy with these days.
So many things are arranged, and you have to keep an eye on it, where can you have time to go back.
Retracting his thoughts, Ye Jinxiao continued to ask, "Then, how many people died among the candidates?" ”
Speaking of this, Ning Haochen's face became even more solemn.
"There are far more than those that are spreading, but I am worried that it will cause chaos, so I hide it, and there are only a few candidates who know the inside story." Night Night Chinese
Ye Jinxiao gasped.
"Don't worry, isn't the King of Freedom already interfering in this matter now? As long as he's there, there's absolutely no big mess. ”
"You ......"
Ning Haochen said calmly, "King Xiaoyao is indeed a gentleman, and his ability is unmatched. ”
After saying these words, Chasing Moon came over with a food box.
"The girl hasn't had breakfast yet, and now it's noon, so let them prepare lunch."
"Okay."
Seeing that Chasing Moon was taking a lot of things, Ye Jin beckoned several of them to sit down.
"I don't have any master or servant here, just deal with it on the surface, but if that's the case in private, I'll be angry."
Xibao still cringed a little, and Chasing the Moon couldn't wait to sit down.
The rest of the people were eating silently, listening to Ye Jinxiao and Ning Haochen chatting with each other.
After a while, there was a knock on the door.
Chasing Moon got up and opened the door, and then brought a jug of wine.
"This pot of wine was given by our boss."
Looking at Ye Jinxiao inquiringly, Ye Jinxiao glanced at Xiao Er, found that his eyebrows and eyes did not dodge, and then asked Chasing Yue to see if there was any material.
Chasing Moon shook his head slightly.
"Thank you boss for me."
"Guests just need to remember to pay for the drink."
Xiao Er said a word, and everyone understood why the boss wanted to send this pot of wine, and their suspicions about it were also lowered a few points.
After checking it again and again, he found that there was nothing wrong, and Chasing Moon added a cup to each of the five people.
"Good food always has to be good wine, and that's how it works."
Just as Chasing Moon was about to drink it, the door was pushed open again.
Mingyue walked in with the maid.
"Why are you here?" Ye Jinxiao was a little surprised.
"At home, I have been listening to my father talk about what happened in the capital recently, and I can't live in peace anyway, so I just go out to see, where do I know that it is more serious than I imagined."
Ye Jinxiao asked people to move a position and let her sit down.
"It's really serious, but I didn't feel anything when I was in the house."
"Hmm."
Mingyue looked at the food on the table, "I originally planned to go back directly, but I saw your carriage downstairs, so I planned to go upstairs and sit down." ”
"I'll have someone add you a pair of chopsticks?"
"Okay."
Mingyue looked at Chasing the Moon and was about to drink, and her brows immediately furrowed.
Chasing Yue immediately put it down and looked at her, "Miss Mingyue can't accept drinking?" So we let the wine be withdrawn? ”
"Don't drink it yet."
Mingyue plucked the silver hairpin on her head and went through it in the wine, but she didn't find anything wrong, and the silver hairpin was still white and clear.
I always felt that something was wrong.
Ye Jinxiao saw Mingyue add some pink powder to the wine glass, and then saw that the wine in the glass suddenly turned dark green, exuding an unpleasant smell.
Mingyue exhaled with palpitations.
"Fortunately, I didn't drink it, otherwise, even if my master is alive, there is nothing I can do."
Ye Jinxiao's heart was cold, and now he was still a little afraid, he was as timid as a happy treasure, and the whole person shrank into a ball.
"What's going on?"
