When the princess Yinxin was mentioned, these old men looked at each other, looking up and down at Qin Huai, a good-looking girl, as if they had already thought of something in their hearts that they didn't dare to confirm.

The reason why Qin Huai wanted to try this matter in person was because she knew that the Bai family would inevitably seize the opportunity to convict Yan Mo, gambling that she would not dare to expose her identity easily and not dare to come forward to protect her at will, so she thought of this way to keep her mouth shut.

The more time it gets, the more Qin Huai can't let it get his way.

During the period when Mingyue trotted back to get the letter, Qin Huai was not idle, she took out the arrogant attitude she had in Xunyang, and looked at these Yan family patriarchs condescendingly.

"Princess Ben recently came back to Yunzhou to visit relatives, and she didn't want to expose her identity and cause a sensation, but since you questioned it, I have to convince you."

Instead of waiting for them to guess, it is better to let Qin Huai explain it himself, so that some people have to say that she is not.

Seeing that these elders of the Yan family were about to be shocked by Qin Huai's attitude, the Bai family didn't expect that this little slut would be willing to prove his identity for Yan Mo and openly resist the decree. Bai Shi was also anxious, and hurriedly came up to interject.

"You obviously came to the Yan family to be punished, what kind of princess shelf are you putting here! Don't listen to her nonsense, patriarchs! ”

Her words confirmed Qin Huai's true identity from the side, except for the subordinates, these patriarchs who had just entered the Yan Mansion did not kneel, nor did they kneel, they were all crowded at the door.

At this time, Qin Huai was also polite, giving a thin face to several patriarchs, and said loudly.

"Yan Xu is the grandfather of this princess, and I naturally want to investigate to the end if something happens to him, but the truth of this matter cannot be explained by one person's words, what you want is the truth, not for your own selfish prevarication. You are also the elders of the Yan family, and this princess is not here to visit relatives with great fanfare this time, so this kneeling ceremony will be waived. ”

This move can be regarded as a combination of grace and power, and the patriarchs below looked at this little girl with her own prestige, and once again tacitly looked at her carefully. At this time, she was disheveled, and her whole person was still a little drunk, and she could reprimand and reveal her identity in front of the Yan family's housewife, if she wasn't a powerful person, where would this royal demeanor come from.

Seeing that Qin Huai had crossed over to herself and got the right to hear the case, the Bai family couldn't swallow this breath, she had been planning hard for so long, how could she be disrupted by this little slut.

"Cui Ming! Take the holy decree and show the patriarchs of the Yan family whether she is guilty of sin. ”

Cui Ming hesitated, but did not disobey.

For a long time, in front of everyone, Mingyue held the princess's seal letter, and Cui Ming read the holy decree in public.

What is unexpected is that the whole text of the holy decree only mentions that Qin Huai should stay in the Yan family for a period of time, and this matter cannot be told to anyone who has nothing to do with it, it is the Bai family's preconceived idea that Qin Huai is down.

After reading Qin Ci, Qin Huai broke the deadlock with a smile.

"You have also seen it, the Yan family's mother, the Bai family, can't even understand the holy decree, how can she adjudicate such a major matter? Today, this princess will be a little more tired, and she will judge the matter for you and judge this matter herself. ”

Seeing that the Bai clan was deflated, Qin Huai waved his hand, and Steward Qian immediately brought three chairs and invited the patriarchs to take their seats.

Those patriarchs couldn't hold back a little on their faces, thinking that these two women, one surnamed Bai and the other surnamed Qin, were not from their Yan family in essence, but they still had to scramble to cut off the Yan family's housework, and it was a joke to spread it.

Thinking about it, they didn't dare to collide with Qin Huai, the arrogant princess.

"Yan Mo, you stand up. You only served your grandfather closely, and this time you let the thieves take advantage of the loophole, and you were not strict in your governance. You are indeed guilty, but this must also be determined after the princess finds out the real culprit, and if you find anything, you can also make meritorious contributions. ”

Qin Huai's undoubted tone made Bai Shi break out in a cold sweat, this woman, is she so sure.

"Thank you, princess!"

Yan Mo knelt for a long time, and kept the initial posture without moving, seeing Qin Huai fighting for him like this, gratitude overflowed in his heart. He didn't get up in a hurry, but kowtowed to Qin Huai first, and then straightened his robe and stood up.

"Dare to ask my aunt, how did you know that your grandfather's medicinal diet was poisoned?"

Since Qin Huai had arranged an errand for herself, she had to do a good job, she picked up the bowl of black medicine residue in front of her and looked at it, but she couldn't see anything abnormal.

"Some time ago, I saw that my father-in-law was not in the right state, and he was still vomiting blood on the Shangyuan Festival, so I suspected that my subordinates were not serving well, so Cui Ming had a better mind."

There are people from the ancestral hall of the Yan family, and the Bai family is not arrogant, so they can only ask and answer anything, and they look very nervous when they clasp their hands together.

"Then how did Cui Ming suspect Yan Mo?" Qin Huai was obviously interrogating, but secretly he was digging a pit for the Bai family.

"There are not many people in the backyard, and feeding the old lady medicine is a matter of negligence, it has always been the third young master's scholar to do it, and our subordinates are tracking down, naturally starting from the source."

Cui Ming guessed Qin Huai's suspicions, and answered without leaking.

Bai was anxious, afraid that Qin Huai would really find out something, so he hurriedly blocked her mouth with the doctor's previous words.

"We found a poison in the scholar's house, and the doctor said that this poison came from the Chu State, and it was a rare highly toxic powder that could be maintained for a long time without diminishing its effectiveness."

In order to confirm the authenticity of this matter, Bai Shi then explained: "This poison is expensive, and he is estimated to not be able to afford it for half a lifetime, if there is no one behind us, we can't believe it." ”

At the time of the Shangyuan Festival, the mother and son were still filial and happy, but in a few days, they changed their faces, and Bai's ruthless ability to turn his face was smacked. Qin Huai quietly watched her acting, and asked from time to time.

"This is also true, if it is really Yan Mo's doing, if this matter is discovered, he will be the first to be suspected, I am afraid that he will not be so stupid to arrange the closest person to do it."

Bai Shipi didn't smile and questioned: "This is not necessarily, in case she is sure that the princess will think like this." ”

Bai's one-sided words are not to be believed, Qin Huai thought that his grandfather was not in a good state, and the doctor would definitely not leave, so he proposed: "The doctor is still not there, let him determine where this poison came from." ”

Doctor Pan got the word and entered the ancestral hall again, he looked at the faces of everyone and felt very uneasy, since this Yan family came to Miss Cousin, he came to the clinic more and more often, although every time the family would give him a large amount of hush money, he was afraid that one day the Yan family would be hollowed out, and he would be unlucky.

Qin Huai had long suspected that this Doctor Pan was from the Bai family, but she had no evidence and could not identify it at will, so as not to fall into the mouth.

"Doctor Pan, let me ask you, what kind of poison is this?"

Doctor Pan trembled, "Miss Hui, this poison is a rare toad, this medicinal material is extremely toxic and difficult to use, so merchants generally do not purchase it." ”

Is the clue broken?

Qin Huai was stunned, and didn't know where to start for a while, so he inquired about his grandfather's current situation.

"Dr. Pan, is my grandfather better?"

When he asked this, Doctor Pan was obviously reluctant to answer, but he glanced at Bai's gaze slightly, and still made his words clear in front of everyone.

"Fang has already induced vomiting, but fortunately, it has not penetrated into the lungs for a long time, but General Yan is old and still suffers from such a toss, I am afraid that God will reward him in the future."

He's saying that my grandfather's time is running out......

That's impossible!

Qin Huai wouldn't believe what he said, he was a member of the Bai family, and he must have hoped that his grandfather would leave it alone as soon as possible, so he maliciously arranged it!

Not only Qin Huai, but even the three patriarchs also trembled in their hearts, what kind of person Yan Xu is, how could the general who made Bian Sai frightened like this, it was too unusual.

Everyone fell silent, and Yan Mo couldn't stand such stimulation and almost fell to his knees. Only the Bai family was indifferent.

At the same time, Gu Baixiu appeared outside the ancestral hall.

"Know the other effects and reactions of this poison below."

The mountains and rivers are exhausted, and there is no way out, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village.

Qin Huai was just about to invite him in, but the patriarch here finally interjected.

"Who are you?"

It's not that they suspect that Gu Baixiu is an embroidered pillow, it's that he is too dazzling from top to bottom, which is jaw-dropping.

Gu Baixiu clenched his fists and did not hide it, "Gu Baixiu is in the lower army mountain, and he is ordered to protect the safety of the princess." ”

Princess?

Dr. Pan is a clever and a little suspicious of his ears, this legendary Miss Cousin turned out to be a princess?

In case you get caught, it's not ...... The more Dr. Pan thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he almost knocked over the medicine residue in his hand, and he had a strong premonition that he would die soon.

"Bai Xiu, tell me quickly, what is this toad."

Qin Huai didn't care about Qin Huai, who asked his grandfather again, he must cross over the urgent need in front of him first.

"The toad is produced in the Chu State, and there is a Seven Killing Gate in Pojun Mountain that specializes in Qimen Dunjia and the Five Elements Poison will also be developed, although this poison is long-lasting, but it is easy to leave traces. If it is stored in one place for a long time, no matter the stone tools, jade silk and wood, it will be stained with dark green, which is as bright and difficult to remove, and some people in Chu will use this thing as a pigment. ”

Gu Baixiu's expression was indifferent, his words were sure, and he had an indescribable temperament on his body that could make outsiders quiet.

"Anything else?"

Qin Huai was in a hurry, always thinking that there was probably room for redemption in this matter, as long as he knew the medicinal properties, he could help his grandfather relieve it!

Gu Bai Xiu pondered for a moment, found out the books he had read in the Broken Army Mountain Scripture Pavilion before, and recalled.

The doctor said that this kind of medicinal material is extremely toxic and difficult to use, so merchants generally do not purchase it. In fact, although there are not many shops that sell this medicinal material, it is quite effective in repelling insects, and some century-old shops will still leave this medicinal material. ”

As soon as Dr. Pan's lie was exposed, before Qin Huai could ask for the crime, his hands were already shaking with fright.

Isn't this a chance for Qin Huai.

"Doctor Pan, you are also old, how could you make such a small mistake?"

She ignored Bai's surprise and approached Dr. Pan step by step.

"It's me who remembers, it's me who remembers, this young man is so judgmental!"

Dr. Pan knew that he was wrong, so he quickly admitted it, only saying that he was an unintentional mistake. Then he even knelt and crawled to escape from Yan Yan's house.

"Wait, tell the medicinal herb shops and post houses in Yunzhou that Dr. Pan is too old to continue to work hard, and no store will be allowed to hire from today onwards, and those who violate the order will close the shop and withdraw the shop."

Can...... He did things for the Bai family, and he tried to kill his grandfather in vain, leaving the four words of benevolence of the doctor behind, how could Qin Huai let him go easily.

"The old slave will do it."

Steward Qian beckoned two people to come, and retreated with Dr. Pan on his shoulder, in fact, he couldn't bear it, after all, Dr. Pan had also done errands for the Yan family over the years, and this one thing was too late to make trouble, and the reputation accumulated in the past was lost.

Qin Huai looked at the Bai family's stunned appearance, she knew that with Gu Bai's help, she would definitely be able to find the key evidence soon.

"That's easy, this poison must not fly in out of thin air, arrange for people to inquire about the past, let us know where this poison came from and who it fell into."

There will be no news for a while, Qin Huai saw that it was not early, and his uncle had not returned, so he took the first step to order.

"The patriarchs are also tired, it is better to rest in the hall first, this matter will be told to the truth when the uncle comes back, and will also give you a satisfactory answer, and will not let go of anyone who deserves it."

Qin Huai was about to go back to the house to tidy up, and when he turned around, he realized something, walked half a step and turned back, and instructed.

"This princess forgot one thing, this holy decree also said that you can't let too many irrelevant people wait, know that if you let your father know, you told outsiders about this...... Oh, my father has always only talked about monarchs and ministers, regardless of relatives. ”

These patriarchs are all clear people, they can tell what to say and what not to say, and they nodded their heads.

When it was over, Qin Huai did not forget to take care of the Bai clan who was motionless in place.

"Uncle, aren't you very proud of the Bai family's hospitality, it's better to take it out and show it in front of the patriarchs."

Others couldn't understand her sarcasm, but Bai Shi knew it clearly, and immediately blackened his face and smashed the bowl of medicine residue to pieces.
