Chapter 139
The attendants of the racecourse were very attentive in preparing tea and bringing it to the stands.
The person who came to bring the tea estimated that he was a steward of the racecourse, and said to Gu Nanye with low eyebrows: "The little one doesn't know that the Hou Ye invited the princess to come today, the preparation is insufficient, the dim sum is too rough, and the little one is ashamed to serve it, so he only has a pot of hot tea, please forgive the Hou Ye and the princess." β
Qu Muge said indifferently: "It's okay, I just used the meal, and I can't eat it now." β
The steward smiled and scalded the teacups and poured tea for the two of them, and invited them to drink.
Qu Muge doesn't like to drink tea, nor is he thirsty, so he didn't drink it in the teacup.
As soon as Gu Nanye picked up the teacup, the people below rode their horses and ran in front of him, urging him to go to the race.
He made an appointment with the soldiers, and this afternoon he won his prize.
"I'm going to run a few laps." Gu Nanye put down the teacup, and jumped over the fence into the horse farm with a vigorous posture.
Seeing him leave, the steward's eyes sank, and he said, "The princess and the marquis must be unaccustomed to drinking Jin Junmei, so the little one went to change some tea." β
Qu Muge glanced at it, the tea was good tea: "You don't need to change it, just put it here." You don't need to wait here, you can go down. β
The steward hesitated for a moment, and finally retreated respectfully.
Qu Muge's eyes were all on Gu Nanye, in the racecourse, Gu Nanye and the other four soldiers had already warmed up, lined up at the fence of the stable, ready to race horses.
There was a sound of the whip, and the fence fell, and the horses rushed out in unison, kicking up the dust.
Although Qu Muge had seen Gu Nanye riding a horse, he was only pacing on horseback in the city, and he never let go of it to gallop and run.
She couldn't help but look forward to it, and she couldn't wait to shout twice to cheer him on.
Although Shuangtian had old injuries, he was still brave, carrying Gu Nanye to take the lead, and he was the first to cross the finish line without any suspense.
The soldiers of the competition sighed one after another: "The general is still so fast, and he doesn't give us any hope." β
His subordinates in the army still used to call him general.
Gu Nanye slipped through the horse and said: "Is it because you are tired, you haven't practiced for many days, and you are so bad?" The water and soil of the capital have raised you into soft bones? β
One soldier quipped: "Although we are looking forward to your reward, the princess is watching, how can we not make you lose face." β
Gu Nanye glanced sideways and said, "I need you to release the water?" Again! If you dare to release the water again, not only will you not be rewarded, but the last one will be served by military law. β
The soldiers suddenly became a heap, and hurriedly returned to the starting point to prepare, riveting enough strength to compete.
The wind was cold in the cold winter, and although Qu Muge was holding the stove in his hand, his mouth and nose were a little uncomfortable.
Taking advantage of the gap between them to prepare for the second scene, Qu Muge took a cup of hot tea, and was about to drink tea to warm his mouth, when a figure suddenly jumped out from the side.
"Can't drink it, it's poisonous!"
The black shadow didn't come quickly, Huanhuan reacted quickly, looked at the black shadow that pounced, kicked it over, and kicked the person to the ground.
This shout startled Qu Muge, and the teacup in his hand fell to the ground.
"What people!" Huanhuan shouted.
The man rolled around on the ground, getting up on his hands and feet.
Because he was afraid that Huanhuan would beat him again, he knelt far away and said: "The villain Jiang Rui, who is on an errand in the horse farm, someone poisoned the tea, and the little one has come to tell him." β
Qu Muge and Huanhuan both changed their expressions, looked at the teapot, and then looked at Jiang Rui.
Huanhuan said solemnly: "Tell the truth what you know, if you have meritorious rescue, the princess will have a heavy reward, if you dare to lie, be careful of your little life!" β
Jiang Rui's face was full of joy, and he knelt on the ground and narrated......
Gu Nanye finished the second race, still the first place, he went to watch Qu Muge a little proudly, but found unusual movements in the stands.
He hurried over on his horse, glanced at the broken teacups on the ground and the kneeling people, and asked with a black face, "Who is it?" What happened? β
Qu Muge got up and said to Huanhuan, "Look at him first." β
She and Gu Nanye walked to the side and said worriedly, "This person said that someone poisoned me in the tea." β
Gu Nanye's expression changed greatly, he held her shoulder and asked, "Have you had tea?" Is there something wrong? β
Qu Muge shook his head and said, "I didn't drink it, I'm fine, don't be nervous." β
Gu Nanye was about to call someone to come over to investigate, but Qu Muge stopped him.
"I already know who it is." Qu Muge said in a low voice: "If what this person said is true, the person who poisoned it is Wei Xiaomeng......
Gu Nanye was a little puzzled, and after thinking for a while, he remembered who Wei Xiaomeng wasβthe youngest daughter of the Jinling Wei family.
The Wei family was raided in the Ye Dian false accusation case because of collusion with Zuo Guifei.
Mrs. Wei was demoted to the Huanyi Bureau, and was executed for threatening the second prince in the palace, leaving only the three children of the Wei family.
Wei Changfeng was demoted to the horse farm, Wei Wenyu was sent to the quarry, and Wei Xiaomeng was reduced to the Teaching Workshop Division.
When Wei Changfeng was doing hard labor in the horse farm, he had a conflict with the servant Jiang Rui, causing Jiang Rui to break his leg. Jiang Rui found someone to take revenge and seriously injured Wei Changfeng, and later died in the stable.
This Jiang Rui got involved in a life lawsuit, lost his official position, and became a hard worker in the horse farm.
According to Jiang Rui, in order to avenge Wei Changfeng, Wei Xiaomeng seduced the steward of the racecourse to rectify him. In order to protect himself, he bought people in the teaching department to do internal responses, and wanted to know their plans. At noon today, Neying reported to him that Wei Xiaomeng had instigated the steward of the racecourse to poison me in the tea. β
Qu Muge frowned and analyzed: "The first half of the section sounds like the truth, but there is something wrong in the back. The steward of the racecourse should be really bold, because an official prostitute from the sect dared to poison me? If something happens to me at the racecourse, the steward is inseparable from it, how can I still enjoy the grace of beauty? And I came here on an impromptu basis today, how did Wei Xiaomeng know? β
Behind Wei Xiaomeng and the steward, and even behind Jiang Rui, there should be other people behind the scenes.
Gu Nanye nodded and said, "You are reasonable, I will handle the rest of the matter, and I will let Feng Hu send you back to the palace first." β
Knowing that something happened here, Gu Nanye's henchmen quickly took the horse farm inside and out, and all the people were detained.
Feng Hu ordered a few people to join him and carefully escorted Taixuan back to the palace.
The more Qu Muge thought about it on the road, the more emotional, that Wei Xiaomeng was originally an official lady like Xie Zhiyin and Lin Youyi, but because of an accident at home, she became an official prostitute, and she also embarked on the road of no return because of hatred, which is really a pity.
In the evening, Feng Hu came to the Tiyuan Hall to reply to Qu Muge, saying that the steward of the racecourse was killed after bringing tea.
Wei Xiaomeng was arrested by the Criminal Department, and she insisted that it was Taixuan who caused her family to be ruined, and it was her own idea to poison her.
Feng Hu said: "Wei Xiaomeng didn't come to the racecourse at all this afternoon, there was someone else who killed the steward, she refused to confess her accomplice, and Hou Ye was still investigating the other people in the racecourse and the sect. β
"What about Jiang Rui?" Qu Muge asked.
Feng Hu said: "Jiang Rui has no suspicions, he was often tortured by the steward a few days ago because of Wei Changfeng's enmity with Wei Xiaomeng, and reported their tricks in order to seek protection from you and Hou Ye, and now he is temporarily detained in the Criminal Department." β
"If there's any news, you can tell me again."
Seeing Feng Hu away, Qu Muge thought for a while under the lamp, and instructed Huanhuan: "Invite the second aunt to the palace tomorrow." β
