Yesterday's trip to the ghost market was fruitless, and I was ordered by the red pupil to prohibit me from stepping into it again, my road is wasted, and now I have no choice but to Qiming Mountain, I have a headache when I think of this, everyone says that the mountain is terrifying, and I am afraid that I will explain it on the way to the road, this thing is difficult!

I was worried and didn't know how to take this medicine, but my sister came over, saying that someone from the military department was looking for me, and my father was accompanying me.

Seeing my sister's bulging belly, and running around to inform me, I couldn't help but blame her for a few words, and my sister humbly accepted it and smiled to touch my head.

When I came to the main hall, the person from the military department was Huang Ping, and I was afraid that he had come to plead guilty to me. Seeing me coming, Huang Ping was very excited, where was there still a little bit of the previous arrogance, thinking that the crossbow was done.

"Miss Tian, according to the drawings you drew last time, I have made it, of course, I found some small problems in the production process, but I also corrected it, now its power is really amazing, I specially invited Miss to go with me today to see the launch of the new crossbow" Speaking of this Huang Ping gushed endlessly, even his father shook his head helplessly on the side, this person is really obsessed with weapons.

I glanced at my father, and saw that he didn't object, I happened to be quite interested in agreeing, went back to the room to change clothes, and took Fuyan with him, this child is also not small, and he should see the world more.

It's just that I didn't expect to see Lu Yan in the training ground, I looked at Huang Ping, his expression was calm, there was no trace of discoloration, just looked at the new crossbow happily, I think I didn't know much about the situation between me and Lu Yan, since I came, I could only step forward and salute, Lu Yan waved his hand, let me stand next to him and unveil the red cloth for the new crossbow together, Fu Yan seemed to dislike Lu Yan, with a delicate little face.

I couldn't shirk it, so I had to complete the ceremony with Lu Yan and Huang Ping, and then Huang Ping led the team to demonstrate in person.

Although the huge bow and crossbow are clumsy, they can be infinitely powerful, "whoosh" dozens of arrows roared towards the straw man a hundred meters away, skimming the ground to drive the weeds and limestone, and before reacting, the arrow reached the end point and pierced the straw man, the shock I saw with my own eyes, I opened my mouth wide and had no image, Fu Yan saw that I was ugly, coughed lightly, I came back to my senses, and the training ground applauded, all cheering for this amazing moment.

"What does Miss Tian think?" Huang Ping looked happy, and hurriedly came to communicate with me, I was secretly distressed, he really regarded me as a god, I had no choice but to smile and praise a few words.

"Today's drill is very successful, and it is all the credit of Ding Er" Lu Yan suddenly said on the side.

"That's right, thanks to Miss Tian, now Dongchi has a strong weapon, and he is no longer afraid of the small countries around him" Huang Ping waved his sleeves, his eyes sharp, as if there was an enemy standing in front of him.

I'm sweating a lot, these two people are too exaggerated "The prince has won the award, I'm just talking on paper, the key is to rely on the practice of Lord Huang, the praise of the two, I don't dare to be"

"Miss Tian is too modest," Huang Ping smiled and narrowed.

"The crossbow has taken a name?" Lu Yan asked Huang Ping, but his eyes were aimed at me.

Huang Ping arched his hand and said, "No, please also ask the prince to give the name"

Lu Yan nodded slightly, and then looked at the crossbow, "Let's call it Ding crossbow."

"Ding crossbow? Is it me?" I felt in my heart. But Huang Ping immediately confirmed my guess, and as soon as he heard that the name was Ding Xuan, he glanced at me, and then nodded with satisfaction.

"Good name, Miss Ding'er is wise and beautiful, and the crossbow designed is called Ding crossbow, which is very suitable" Huang Ping looked relieved.

"No, no, no, this crossbow is the brainchild of Lord Huang, the folk girl has never made any effort, I dare not be ashamed of this name" I was busy refusing, Huang Ping saw that I was resigning, and was about to persuade me, but Lu Yan faced me and said: "This name is very suitable for it, I think it's very good" Huang Ping saw Lu Yan say his heart, and nodded wildly on the side.

I can't shirk it, so I can only go with them, anyway, I don't care about the war, I don't care what I call it a crossbow.

After watching the drill of "Ding Crossbow", Huang Ping took me around the military department again, and asked me from time to time what I thought of these weapons, most of the weapons I didn't even know what to do, how to give him advice, Huang Ping saw that I didn't say a reason for a long time, I just thought that I was not in a good state today, so I didn't ask anymore, to Fu Yan looked very serious along the way, and from time to time I could chat with Huang Ping a few words, Huang Ping saw that Fu Yan was smart, and he was a good seedling who could carry it and liked it very much, and the two had the feeling of seeing each other late.

But I went all the way down, I only felt stinging all over, and Lu Yan didn't know what was going on, such a big boss followed us all the way with a non-self-surrendering identity, and someone behind me kept looking at you, I really didn't feel comfortable anywhere.

Finally, everything that should be watched and played has been completed, Huang Ping and Fu Yan added WeChat to each other, oh no, they exchanged posts with each other, and agreed to have time to get together again.

As soon as I left the military department, I ran away with Fu Yanfei, and I caught a glimpse of Lu Yan's slightly helpless expression.

"Why is my sister walking so fast?" Fu Yan obediently ran with me for a while before asking.

I don't want to mention those old things, so I just casually said a few perfunctory words, although he didn't believe it very much, but obediently stopped asking.

"Xiao Yanyan, don't you like His Royal Highness the Prince" I remembered that Fu Yan looked at Lu Yan with strange eyes several times, and couldn't help but ask him.

Fu Yan's eyes dodged slightly, "I... I'm just—" He was uncharacteristic.

He didn't say anything about Fu Yan's origin, and we never listened to it, but he obviously didn't want to talk about it but didn't want to lie to me, so I patted him on the head and didn't force it. Pull him on, it's not a big deal, don't say it if you don't want to say it.

More than half a month has passed in a flash, and my relationship with Qi Yun is maintained by a few pieces of paper, if it weren't for true love, I would want to break up, and I don't know how much Uncle Qi doesn't want me to be with Qi Yun, Qi Yun really wants to come out It's not completely impossible, he has a lot of ghost ideas, and he is the person who knows his father best, it's not easy to escape? I understand that his compromise is nothing more than to solve Uncle Qi's misunderstanding of me at the root, and I hope everything will go smoothly!

But having said that, Uncle Lu's throne has not been very smooth recently, bandits are rampant in the south, and local officials can't suppress it, so Uncle Lu has to send Lu Ye to lead the army to suppress it, and although it is spring, the weather has not warmed much, the crops are not well planted, and the food prices remain high......

I mobilized the Tian family and Zhengyuan Pavilion to contribute money and efforts to save people's lives as much as I could, and it was also counted as accumulating some good rewards for the baby in my sister's womb.

The sisters who danced the square dance also donated money one after another, and the gate of Tianfu and Zhengyuan Pavilion were full of refugees every day, such a scene should really let Uncle Lu come to see it himself.

"Ding'er, come on, someone is making trouble" Sakura hurriedly ran in.

I had just peeled a slice of orange and stuffed it into my mouth, and I was taken aback, "Who's making trouble?" ”

Sakura frowned and only said, "Come with me, I can't tell"

Seeing that she was in a hurry, it didn't seem to be a trivial matter, so I grabbed the remaining oranges and trotted to follow.

As soon as I arrived at the door, there were many people on the inside and outside of the three floors, although they were usually just as lively, but no one was crying and scolding my mother here.

"What's going on?" I pushed through the crowd and asked in a loud voice, my cold eyes falling on the troublemakers.

"Sister" Fu Yan saw me coming, and she didn't argue with them and ran to me.

"What's going on?"

Fu Yan said helplessly, "There is a servant of the Meng family who died in front of our house, and the Meng family said that he drank our porridge and was poisoned."

This is simply inexplicable, "The Meng family is also a well-known family with a deep background, why did their maidservants come to us to eat relief food?" ”

"This maid was originally Meng Tengxuan's maid, Meng Tengxuan liked her very much, but Meng Tengxuan's wife Qi couldn't tolerate her, and drove this maid out when Meng Tengxuan went down to Jiangnan, she was penniless, so she had to come to us in order to survive, and she came every day these days" Fu Yan explained.

So miserable? I looked at the woman covered with a white cloth, and felt a trace of sympathy in my heart, but how could her death have anything to do with our family? "Not to mention whether she drank our porridge and died, then since they drove people out, why do you care if she lives or dies now? And why even Mrs. Meng came over, "I'm very puzzled, if I was reluctant to let this maid go, why would I have gone earlier, and now that people are gone, they have come to make trouble and clearly touch porcelain."

Fu Yan sighed lightly, "After Meng Tengxuan came back from Jiangnan, he found that the person was gone, and he knew that he was driven out, so he told that the maid was pregnant with the heir of the Meng family, the Qi family had been in the Meng Mansion for three years without children, and refused to let Meng Tengxuan take a concubine. ”

I couldn't help but shake my head, because they are all intellectuals, this kind of logic doesn't make sense at all, so it's really stupid to run around first.

"Old Mrs. Meng, Meng Gongzi, it is a bit far-fetched that this girl's death is involved with our Tianfu, it is really indecent for the two of them to make a fuss so disregarding their image, it is better to hand over this matter to the Criminal Department for acceptance, and they will definitely be able to find out the truth to comfort the girl's spirit in the sky" I choose to salute first and then soldier, if the other party continues to mess around, then I don't have to be polite.

"Too far-fetched? I think it's too much of a coincidence, Lan Xiang only ate things from your Tianfu before she died, who else could it be if she wasn't poisoned by you? You will pay back my grandson, and you will return my grandchildren...... Your family has lost their conscience......" After speaking, Mrs. Meng continued to scold.

I pulled the corners of my mouth, my patience gradually drained, and I raised my voice and said: "Old Mrs. Meng, your Meng family is well-off, why do you want to drive a maid who is pregnant with the heir of the Meng family?" It's not us who let her live on the streets, and it's not us who can't eat, besides, this Lanxiang girl hasn't been receiving relief food in our Tianfu for a day or two, why was it okay before, but now something suddenly happened? Don't you think it's weird? ”

Mrs. Meng wiped a handful of snot, "Ke Lanxiang was poisoned after all, and she only drank your porridge before she died, how can her death have nothing to do with you?" ”

"Then why is everyone else okay?" I asked calmly, and the refugees on the side also stood up to speak for me.

"The Tian family is a good person, their food is not poisonous, I ate it well, you don't wronged the good people"

"That's it, your Meng family is black-hearted, and you can't even tolerate a servant, and now you see that she is pregnant and looking for her, I think it's your Meng family who has done too many bad things, and God can't look past it to let you cut off your children and grandchildren" The sisters spoke straight, and even stepped on the sore spot of the Meng family, and Meng Tengxuan, who said it directly, blushed, but he held his own identity as a man and couldn't argue with his sisters, Mrs. Meng was different, and she jumped to her feet angrily and scolded her sisters, and the scene was uncontrollable for a while.

"Stop......," I yelled, "right now, it's just the two of you who say that Miss Lanxiang was poisoned, are you doctors?" You said yes, that's it? I also think that Lan Xiang drank porridge and drank well, but seeing that the two of you were disgusted to death, what evidence do you have to prove that she didn't die suddenly because of your stimulation? I came to Mrs. Meng with my hands behind my back and looked at her condescendingly, she didn't expect that I would suddenly turn a corner and start to play a scoundrel with her, and she was stunned. But she is an old man with rich experience in house fighting, and this kind of episode can't help her.

"The Tian family still has no rules, and they let a girl show up, it doesn't make people laugh, it's really a small family who doesn't know the etiquette" Mrs. Meng began to play with the rules and decency.

But she didn't know that our family was most unaccustomed to this, as soon as the words came out, my father and mother just watched the show from a distance against the door frame, looking too lazy to take care of her, Sakura and Fuyan secretly moved their hands and feet.

"Old lady, I respect you as an elder, and I have always told you in a good voice, you first slandered us for poisoning Lanxiang without any evidence, and then cursed our Tian family at the door, my patience is also limited, I like to speak with facts, you have repeatedly prevented me from reporting to the official, I suspect that you are purely trying to frame us"

Mrs. Meng laughed mockingly, "Framing you, are you worthy of being framed by me?" The Tian family lost money and goods for the two of you, don't think that you recruited a door-to-door son-in-law, and turned over after giving birth to a wild seed, it is not a goods that has no children and grandchildren, phew, it is also worth framing me"

"Do you dare to say it again?" As soon as Mrs. Meng's words came out, I was angry in my heart, saying that I was just losing money, she dared to curse the child in my sister's belly, I gritted my teeth and asked her to repeat what she said, as long as she dared to say it again, I must make her pay.

I looked at her viciously, a trace of panic flashed in Mrs. Meng's eyes, but she still stalked her neck, so that Meng Tengxuan was still a face, and pulled Mrs. Meng and asked her not to say more.

Mrs. Meng saw me looking like she was going to eat people, and when she saw my father and mother standing next to me, she also looked like she was going to kill someone, especially my father was full of murderous energy, this old woman was already trembling with fright, I was secretly glad that my sister had returned to the room, otherwise she would not have been able to stand it.

Mrs. Meng naturally didn't dare to repeat what she just said, but pulled the topic back to Lan Xiang's death, I was too lazy to talk nonsense with her, and saying a word to her made me feel like a waste of life. I pulled Fu Yan and asked him to invite Luo Meng to come over, how did this person die, Luo Meng, the great miracle doctor, will not be wrong when he sees it, as long as it is not poisoned, I will directly find someone to beat these two bed bugs out.

Soon Lomon came, but the results of Lomon after checking it shocked me, "Lan Xiang did die of poisoning"

One sentence was like a thunderbolt, everyone was stunned, our family was naturally worried about being implicated, and the refugees were worried that the porridge was really poisonous, only Mrs. Meng and Meng Tengxuan cried loudly, "Let us lose our lives"

"Do you know what kind of poison Lanxiang has been in? And whether our porridge is poisonous or not" I was so upset that I tried to tell myself to stay calm.

Hearing this, Luo Meng leaned over and checked Lan Xiang's body again, and after a while, he stood up and washed his hands with water before saying, "This girl died of poisoning, yes, but this poison is very rare, I... I don't know, but I don't know if there is any poison left in this porridge."

"Ahh It's really toxic... We won't die, right?" exploded in the refugee group, and for a while they all pointed the finger at us, and began to scold us together with the Meng family, completely forgetting that if it weren't for our soup kitchen, some of them would not have been able to hold on to today, and they still have the strength to scold people here?

"What should I do?" Zhubei was so anxious that she was about to cry, and she pulled me in fear.

"It's okay... It's okay" I comforted her over and over again, and at the same time comforted myself, "What we haven't done will definitely prove our innocence, let's report to the police first"

Lomont suddenly grabbed the hand of a refugee, took the pulse, and put it down. Then he picked a few refugees and took the second pulse, with surprise on his face: "These people have all drunk porridge, and there is no sign of poisoning on their bodies, so there should be no poison in the porridge."

"So who knows if the toxicity hasn't happened yet? After all, the little lady lying on the ground was poisoned only after drinking porridge," someone among the refugees immediately jumped out to refute.

"Lai San, you still have to be shameless, if it weren't for the benevolence and kindness of the Tian family, you Lai San would have died a long time ago, not only do you not know the Entu report, you also fell into the well, you are a bastard" The third sister scolded Lai San with this Lai San, Lai San still did not compromise, driving other refugees to be suspicious, I couldn't help but smile bitterly, "It's really troublesome, help people and help out of grievances" It's better to feed the dogs.

"My Tian family has a clear conscience, since everyone feels uneasy, then I will also drink a bowl, if it is really poisonous, I will die with everyone, if it is not poisonous...... In the future, you don't need to come again, the Tian family will no longer give porridge from today "I picked up a bowl of porridge and was about to drink it, Lomont stopped me and was a little worried, "I don't know what kind of poison this is, I can't save you if you drink it rashly, once something happens, I can't save you"

I smiled at him, public opinion is very terrible, it can be born out of nothing, naturally can not be ignored, of course, I also believe that the Tian family does not have such a poisonous villain, I raised my head and drank it all in a few sips, the refugees carefully observed my reaction, some people were guilty, some people were slightly worried and some people couldn't wait to see if I would be poisoned.

I showed the bowl to everyone, and then said, "Everyone has seen it, if the porridge is poisonous, I will die with everyone, but I believe that we are innocent, and I believe that the government will return our innocence."

There was silence in the crowd, and there were a few faint whispers, and Mrs. Meng secretly glanced at me and cursed something in a low voice.

"Da Da" There was a sound of horses' hooves from far and near, and when he got closer, he saw that it was Qi Yun and Taozi who came on horseback, and he finally came back... For a moment, I was a little aggrieved and wanted to cry.

Qi Yun glanced at the chaotic situation, looked at the mother and son sitting on the ground indifferently, and dismounted and walked towards me.

"Did you miss me?" He landed his hands on my shoulders and smiled.

Because there was someone next to me, I stood stiff, but my nose couldn't help but be sore, and my head leaned towards him slightly, "I thought, why did you come?"

"I'm sorry, I'm late, I'm sorry" Qi Yun held my face and apologized seriously, his eyes full of pity.

Considering the current environment, I really felt very embarrassed, so I pushed Qi Yun and asked him to stop.

"Ah, there is porridge, I've been riding a horse for so long, and I'm just hungry, I'll drink a bowl too" Qi Yun glanced at the porridge bucket, picked up a bowl and scooped it up.

Seeing this, Luo Meng wanted to remind him kindly, but Qi Yun glanced at him, as if he was fully aware of what was happening here.

Qi Yun took a big gulp of porridge, drank two bowls before wiping his mouth, and walked towards Meng Tengxuan, "Young Master Meng, you and I haven't seen each other for a long time."

Meng Tengxuan hurriedly got up, "Young Master Qi, it's true that I haven't seen you for a long time, you and the Tian family?" ”

Qi Yundao "The second miss of the Tian family is my fiancée"

Anyone close to us naturally knew about the relationship between me and Qi Yun, but most of the others didn't know about it, so as soon as Qi Yun's words came out, Meng Tengxuan and Mrs. Meng's faces changed, and they didn't seem to expect that our family and Qi Cheng could have a relationship.

"This~~ I didn't know, it turned out that the second lady was your wife who didn't pass through the door, so it was a misunderstanding to think about it today~" Meng Tengxuan glanced at Lan Xiang who was lying on the ground, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and squeezed out a smile.

"Teng'er" Mrs. Meng was a little anxious when she saw that Meng Tengxuan had the posture of no longer pursuing it, but in the end, she cared about Qi Yun, so she had to give up.

"I also regret the matter of Miss Lanxiang, but this matter has nothing to do with the Tian family, if you want to settle the account, you should go back and ask your wife, just now I was bumped by the maid in your house on the way here, what is it called" Qi Yun suddenly couldn't remember, and looked at Taozi for help.

Taozi was expressionless, and arched his hand and said, "Ruxiang"

"Oh, yes, it's a girl named Ruexiang, she claims that her lady asked her to come out on an errand, so early in the morning, there are not many people on the street, she sneakily pays attention to the people around her, but she can't even see my horse, after the collision she fell out of her sleeve such a bottle" He said and handed the bottle to Lomont.

Lomont took it and sniffed it first, then poured some more and added water to his hand to melt it, and then tried it with a silver needle, it was not black, but the smell was the same as the poison in the orchid, obviously this is a poison that cannot be detected with a silver needle.

After hearing Luo Meng say that Lan Xiang died from the bottle of medicine carried by Rue Xiang, the refugees all lowered their heads, as if they didn't know how to face us, Meng Tengxuan's eyes were full of hatred, it seemed that he had true feelings for Lan Xiang, but he didn't have any feelings for his wife, which made Qi Shi send a ruthless henchman to completely solve Lan Xiang. Meng Tengxuan's preference for Lanxiang just killed Lanxiang, and it was a real drama.

Now that the matter is open, I don't bother to care about the bad things within their Meng family. Mrs. Meng had to give up, called someone to carry the body away, and left with the support of Meng Tengxuan, just after they left, the people from the official mansion rushed over and were taken away by Qi Yun in a few words.

"Yun'er, thanks to you today, otherwise I'm afraid this matter will be over" The mother looked at Qi Yun excitedly, probably thinking in her heart, "It's back, now Ding'er will be normal" Anyway, from my mother's eyes, I can guess some.

Dad patted Qi Yun on the shoulder, Qi Yun smiled innocently, in front of my father, he returned to the appearance of a silly boy.

"Then let's go in first, you haven't seen each other for a long time, let's catch up," Daddy very considerately took the light bulbs into the house.

Lomon was invited by us early in the morning, and his father asked him to have a meal with him, but he only said hello to Qi Yun and declined with a smile.
