Chapter 199: The Next Yuan Festival (15)

"Back to Your Highness, this is actually not a real poison, but the person who has been poisoned by this poison, for a period of time, has a mouth that cannot speak, a leg that cannot walk, except for breathing, the whole person is almost like a corpse, and can be manipulated at will.

But the strange thing is that the subordinates of this medicine powder only heard about it by chance, and they haven't really seen it, and they have always thought it was just a rumor, but they didn't think that there was really such a thing, and they didn't know where this shopkeeper got this poison from? The medic looked excited, as if he had discovered a new treasure.

"Your Highness, your subordinates will send people to chase along the way!" Left guard rate said.

"No need, the enemy is dark and I am clear, if I can't catch up, Su Roujia will not be in danger for the time being, and the palace still has something to ask him." Nan Jinyan looked at the shopkeeper again, since it was poisoning, it means that this person may not be an accomplice, he took a sip of the tea bowl, and said to the military doctor: "The palace knows, you can retreat." ”

The military doctor gave up, and after waiting for about half a pillar of incense, the shopkeeper groaned, and his body began to twitch slightly.

Then he propped up the table with his hands, and slowly got up, and as soon as he stood up straight, he saw that his feet were weak, and he fell down with a "bang", and pushed the bench beside him with a creak.

After that, he raised his hand to pick the edge of the table, supported his body hard, and then used his arm to lie on the table and borrowed strength, hooked the bench back with his feet, and sat on it with his buttocks, which happened to be at the lower right of Nan Jinyan.

"How's the poison?" Nan Jinyan glanced at the shopkeeper, there were still half-dried blood stains under his nose, he picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea, and pushed it in front of the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper finally relieved the strength of the medicine, wiped his nose with his hand, suddenly reacted, and quickly knelt down and said: "Grass people, grass people don't know how to be poisoned, I just remember to finish today's accounts, and was about to turn around and go back to the house to rest, when I fainted inexplicably."

When the grass people woke up, they found themselves in the grass outside the inn, and they were changed their clothes, and they wanted to get up and come back, but they couldn't move, and they couldn't speak, and then they were tied up by the officials and taken to the backyard, and then later, you came......"

Nan Jinyan looked around the inn, looked at the shopkeeper and asked, "How long have you been open for this inn?" ”

"The grass people have been here for some years."

"Why don't you see buddy?" Nan Jinyan asked again.

"Originally, there was, but business was sluggish, so let him go home."

Nan Jinyan asked with a smile: "Didn't you let him go home today when the recession happened?" ”

The shopkeeper replied in fear: "Grass people, grass people don't know what you mean? ”

"Take it!" Nan Jin's tone of voice was flat, and as soon as the order came out, the guard had already drawn his knife and put it on the shopkeeper's neck.

"This is the junction of the Southern Jin Dynasty and the Northern Li, although the relationship between the two countries is tense, but there are business exchanges, no matter how sluggish, there should be no door, if the palace is not mistaken, this inn is the only place to rest, so, there are no other guests here, because you are waiting for the palace, right?"

The shopkeeper was about to cry, and hurriedly shouted: "The grass people are wronged! The grass people don't even know what you're talking about...... The grass people are really the shopkeeper of this inn! ”

"Wronged? Hongu remembers that you just said that there are no buddies here, and since there are none, then why did you shout 'one room in the upper room' before? You're telling someone that Hongu has arrived, right?

When you first came in, you kept looking up and down to make sure that this palace was the person you were waiting for, but was it wrong? So, although you are not one of theirs, you are also an accomplice. ”

After Nan Jinyan finished speaking, the shopkeeper fell to the ground and cried: "Grass people...... The grass people are also forced to ...... in order to survive."

"Hmm......" Nan Jinyan closed her eyes, took a deep breath, opened her eyes, and said jokingly: "Let Bengong think about it, who is it, leaking the news......"

At the same time that Nan Jinyan was interrogating the shopkeeper, Zuo Weishu had already led people to search this place up and down, back and forth, inside and outside.

"Your Highness!" Zuo Wei led his hand and said: "Your Highness, the coachman is gone." ”

Nan Jinyan walked in front of the shopkeeper and leaned over to look at him, "From now on, every time you say a lie, this palace will cut off one of your fingers, do you hear clearly?" "Stretch out your hand, "Bring a knife and ......"

Zuo Weishu took out a dagger from his waist and handed it to Nan Jinyan, "Your Highness, this knife sharpens iron like clay." ”

"Hear me?" Nan Jinyan gently patted the shopkeeper's face with the back of the knife, and the shopkeeper looked at Nan Jinyan in horror, his face turned pale with fright, and he nodded quickly.

Nan Jinyan squatted down, looked at the dagger in his hand, and asked in a deep voice, "Who are they?" ”

"Grass, grass people, grass people don't know ......"

Nan Jinyan took one of the shopkeeper's hands, the knife fell, the movements were fast and coherent, in one go, strong and decisive, only to hear the shopkeeper's scream, and an index finger fell to the ground.

The shopkeeper clenched his bloody hands and cried heartbreakingly, "Grass people...... The grass people really don't know anything, I don't know...... They said they would kill me if I didn't cooperate, and I didn't want to hurt anyone! I didn't mean to...... I don't know anything...... I don't know......"

Looking at the shopkeeper's appearance, Nan Jinyan judged that what he said was not a lie, "This palace will believe you, although you are forced to do so, but you are also aiding the abuse, today is a small punishment and a big commandment, spare your life."

Also, you had better pray to Heaven to bless my wife with safety, and if she lacks a hair, no matter where you are, this palace will find you and crush your bones and ashes. ”

After Nan Jinyan finished speaking, he got up and walked quickly towards the outside of the inn, and the shopkeeper asked in a loud voice: "The grass people have something to understand, you, who are you?" ”

"Prince of the Southern Jin Dynasty, Nan Jinyan."

The shopkeeper was stunned, and his heart was suddenly stunned, if he had known that he was plotting to murder the prince, he wouldn't have dared to die! This is a big sin of the Nine Clans, and he wept and shouted: "Grass people, grass people thank the prince for not killing him!" Thank you for the grace of Prince Xie's non-killing! ”

Before leaving, Zuo Wei secretly ordered someone to return to the Southern Jin Dynasty, and then personally drove for Nan Jinyan and rushed to Beili overnight.

"Your Highness, are you really going to the appointment tomorrow? Your subordinates don't think it's appropriate, or how about your subordinates pretend to be you? Zuo Weilu asked, sitting on the wheel.

Nan Jinyan lifted the curtain, got out of the carriage, sat next to Zuo Wei, and put his arm around his shoulder, "What they want to see is this palace, if they don't go, Jia'er may be in danger, this palace promised her that she would not leave her." ”

"But, Your Highness, you are the crown prince of my Southern Jin Dynasty, this ...... Alas...... "Zuo Weirate is afraid that Nan Jinyan will be in danger because of this, after all, he is the prince, it is about the country, if there is a three long and two short, he will not die ten thousand times.

Nan Jinyan knew what Zuo Weishu was worried about, patted him on the shoulder, looked at Zuo Weishu and said, "With you here, this palace can rest assured." ”

At this moment, the left guard rate only hoped that the man would hurry back to the Southern Jin Dynasty and inform the right guard rate of the matter here, so that he could come to rescue the crane as soon as possible.
