465. It's time for the poison to strike

Zhao Yu was stunned for a moment, only to realize that he was only worried before, and he didn't notice at all, Qi Wushuang was looking at him with suspicion.

Perhaps because of his reminder, Emperor Qianling's eyes also changed.

Zhaoyu hurriedly said, "Scorpion Kui is famous in the rivers and lakes, I used to follow the prince to do things, and it is indispensable to deal with people in the rivers and lakes, which is like you, in a high position in the temple, and has nothing to do with them, so naturally I don't know what is going on." ”

Qi Wushuang said coldly, "It's better to be like this, otherwise ......"

At this time, Emperor Qianling couldn't care about the conversation between the two, he hurriedly went to the officials of the port to verify, and found that there was indeed a person named Ye Kui who registered.

However, the direction he went was Dongying, and the country of Ulan.

"Oops, Jing'er was tricked into getting on the boat, this scorpion must have been premeditated...... Can we catch them by boat now?! ”

Emperor Qianling anxiously asked the officials around him, and his heart was so nervous that he wanted to rush over directly.

The official shook his head, "It's been a while, and I can't catch up, and it is said that there is a storm tonight, and you see that the fishermen are not going out to sea, and it is more auspicious to go out." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Emperor Qianling rushing out, like an arrow off the string.

After listening to his retelling, Qi Wushuang and Zhaoyu looked at each other, really not knowing what to do.

"Why don't you send a few people out to sea tonight to salvage ......"

Before he finished speaking, Qi Wushuang couldn't continue.

If there was no storm, Xie Zikui and the others would have run away a long time ago, and they would not be able to catch up.

But if there is a storm, it will be really bad luck, and no one will want to go to sea in the storm.

Emperor Qianling let out a long sigh and tried to calm himself down, "Scorpion Kui kidnapped Jing'er to threaten me...... I think when they get to their destination, they may write to me. ”

"What do you mean......"

"Let's go directly to Dongying tomorrow, if you can find their clues, of course it's best, if you can't find ......"

Emperor Qianling bit his lip, and a yin owl had already appeared in his eyes, "Then I naturally want to let Song Yingcai and the others pay for their blood debts!" ”

The matter has come to this point, it is useless to be anxious, Qi Wushuang can only take the order and arrange it.

Zhaoyu has always been uneasy, because she knows very well that if Xie Zikui did it himself, then maybe he really wanted to threaten Emperor Qianling; But if Xie Zikui was sent by Emperor Jianian......

Di Jianian didn't necessarily need any threats, and if he wanted to take this opportunity to kill Ye Jingjing, it was definitely not impossible.

Although he was in a hurry, Zhaoyu still didn't dare to reveal half a word, so he could only use the excuse of investigating the clues and separated from Emperor Qianling and others.

Night was approaching, Ye Jingjing was lying on the bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, and suddenly heard movement outside.

Curious, she went out to take a look and found Ye Kui hurrying to the deck.

Ye Jingjing was originally a little curious about this mysterious person, but now she happened to be bored, so she quietly followed.

Ye Kui stopped on the deck, looked around, and after confirming that there was no one around, he whistled "woo".

Ye Jingjing was curious, a pigeon flew in, and there was a letter tied to her feet.

"It's strange, it's so far away from the port, and the carrier pigeon can still fly over?" Ye Jingjing muttered.

Ye Kui took down the letter and looked at it carefully, knew it in his heart, and released the pigeon; He turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly saw an elongated shadow on the ground, and shouted in a panic, "Who?!" ”

Ye Jingjing realized that she only cared about hiding her body and forgot about the shadow, so she walked out embarrassedly, "Kuiye, it's me." ”

Ye Kui was startled, and then smiled wryly, "Oh, it turned out to be Miss Ye." ”

"I just can't sleep and walk around, I didn't mean to see you with a carrier pigeon." Ye Jingjing explained.

Ye Kui smiled, "Ah, it's okay, it's okay, I'm just sending letters to my family." ”

He shook the letter in his hand and said with a smile, "Miss Ye, do you want to come and see how boring you are?" It's just a family chore. ”

Ye Jingjing hurriedly waved her hand, "No need, it's rude to take the liberty of bothering, I can't peek at your letters anymore!" ”

After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave, but suddenly remembered something, turned her head and asked, "Kui Ye, is our boat really going to Ulan Country?" ”

Ye Kui's expression was a little unnatural, "yes, what's wrong?" ”

"All the people on the ship are yours?"

"Only those family members I brought from home, not the rest of the crew." Ye Kui said. "After all, they've been doing it here for so many years, and it's better to have someone with experience."

Ye Jingjing nodded, suppressed the doubt in her heart, and was about to go back, but she also saw that Ye Kui's shadow behind her raised something like a crossbow arrow.

Ye Jingjing was startled in her heart, a harrier turned over to dodge, only to hear a "whoosh" sound, a silver needle shot out, and nailed it to the place where she was standing just now.

"You're really a ghost!"

Ye Jingjing looked back at Ye Kui, who was holding a small crossbow arrow, and said angrily.

Ye Kui was resentful, "Damn, I forgot about the shadow myself...... Hmph, if you hadn't suddenly become suspicious, I'm afraid I would have made you better for a while! ”

"Who the hell are you? Why trick me into getting on board? Ye Jingjing asked coldly. Also, I'm afraid this ship isn't going to Ulan either, right? ”

Ye Kui sneered, "Lao Tzu's real name is Xie Zikui, and he is a well-known poisoner on the rivers and lakes, and he is nicknamed 'Scorpion Zikui'!" Dealing with a small character like you, you should have been able to do it a long time ago, who would have thought that you suddenly became suspicious......"

He looked at Ye Jingjing and said with a smile, "However, it doesn't matter, anyway, the time should have arrived." ”

"What?"

"I've given you poison, it's time to attack."

Ye Jingjing was taken aback, and hurriedly reached out to test her pulse.

Xie Zikui on the opposite side sneered, and his face looked very hideous in the shadows.

However, Ye Jingjing quickly breathed a sigh of relief, and instead looked at Xie Zikui with a leisurely and smug expression.

At this time, it was Xie Zikui's turn to be a little panicked, "You, what are you laughing at?" ”

At the same time, he was also very puzzled in his heart, why hadn't the poison yet occurred?

"The poison you just mentioned was in tea and pomegranates, right?" Ye Jingjing asked lightly. "It's a pity that I didn't drink tea and I didn't eat pomegranates."

Xie Zikui was taken aback, "How did you ......?"

Seeing his expression like this, Ye Jingjing knew in her heart, knowing that things must be similar to what she guessed, "When you invited me to dinner, you deliberately asked the cook to cook a lot of spicy food, just to force me to drink tea."

"But you miscalculated, the tea is hot, and I don't want to drink herbal tea, so the strategy to poison the tea failed."
