Chapter 67: A Silver Ingot with a Strange Origin

The search for the woman's body made the soldiers in the house a little embarrassed, but since it was ordered by the king of Pingding, the nearest soldier went up to search Wang Cuicui's body, in addition to a few copper coins in the sackcloth money bag, and also found a silver ingot of fifty taels from her chest.

This silver ingots are not something that Wang Cuicui's identity should have, and the soldier was also surprised when he held it in his hand, and then handed it to Ji Wuyu.

Ji Wuyu took the ingot of silver and immediately understood. Wang Cuicui didn't want to escape from the window at all, but someone tempted her to open the window with silver to create the illusion of escaping.

After he saw Wang Cuicui in a hurry yesterday, he entered the palace on official business, but he could see at a glance that Wang Cuicui is a person who loves money, otherwise he would not have entered the palace as soon as he entered the palace, and his eyes were all around, especially when he saw the antiques of gold, silver and jade, Wang Cuicui's eyes were naked and shining.

Ji Wuyu was very disgusted with such a woman, so he sent her to the inn, and took her to confront Nalan Wuyu as soon as he had time, never thinking that Wang Cuicui had just been in Chang'an City for a day, and something happened.

After Wang Cuicui's accident, I don't know why, there was no reason in his mind, and the first perpetrator who came to mind was Nalan Wuyu.

It's just that Hongling came to report before, saying that Nalan Wuyu was suspected of being poisoned, and he was resting in Nalan Mansion, and he also asked Mu Baizhuo to go for treatment, not to mention, how did Nalan Wuyu know that Wang Cuicui came to Chang'an, and how did she know that Wang Cuicui lived in the Hospitable Inn, all of this was too unreasonable.

Ji Wuyu turned over the ingot of silver again, and the bottom of the silver was engraved with the words Yonghe Qianzhuang. You must know that Yonghe Qianzhuang is the property of the Feng family.

In the next moment, Ji Wuyu had already stepped out of the threshold of the inn, turned over and rode away on a horse. Yonghe Qianzhuang, Ji Wuyu's straight legs just entered, and the people who were lined up inside dispersed as if they had seen ghosts.

Ghost-faced Yan Luo Ji Wuyu is here, it's probably not a good thing, go quickly! This is the unanimous idea. In less than a stick of incense, the guests of Yonghe Qian Zhuang were scattered, and only a few helpers and miscellaneous workers remained.

Ji Wuyu didn't pay attention to those people, and walked straight towards the trembling shopkeeper, he casually threw the ingot of silver in front of the shopkeeper, and asked in a cold voice,

"Did this ingot come from your bank?" The shopkeeper's face turned pale, and he thought that he had committed something, and he forgot to pay his respects for a while.

The next second, he trembled and stretched out his hand to take the ingot of silver and looked at it, then nodded,

"Back to the prince's words, exactly!"

"Has anyone been able to exchange a large number of such silver ingots recently?" This ingot of silver ingots is worth fifty taels, which is not something that ordinary people can afford.

The shopkeeper was afraid of suffering, and said truthfully,

"There are not many people who exchange silver ingots these days, but there are five people who exchange silver ingots today, and this ingot ingots are exchanged today, and there is also the code of Yonghe Qianzhuang engraved on it!"

"Is it a man or a woman, do you remember the man's face?" Ji Wuyu asked. The shopkeeper scratched his head and thought for a moment,

"It's a bearded strong man, he took a hundred taels of silver tickets and exchanged them for two silver ingots, one of which is engraved with this string of numbers at the bottom." Because the general big orders are personally received by the shopkeeper, so he remembers today's events very clearly, the only coincidence is that these people all chose the same time period to come in one after another to exchange silver ingots, and there are usually not so many people who want to change this thing.

Ji Wuyu's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the shopkeeper didn't look like he was lying.

"There are five people exchanging silver ingots today?"

"Yes, Lord Wang!" The shopkeeper wiped the cold sweat from his head.

"What does that big man look like, do you remember?" Before the shopkeeper could speak, a guy in the corner of the store couldn't help but open his mouth.

"The little one knows him, he is from the underground gambling house in the north of the city." When Ji Wuyu's eyes shot over, the young man regretted that his mouth was too fast.

But halfway through the words, the young man didn't dare to hide Ji Wuyu, swallowed his saliva and explained,

"It's... It's true, this person usually wanders into gambling houses, he used to be a nurse under the leopard boss, and the younger one has also entered the gambling house a few times before he has seen him. Ji Wuyu's deep eyes stared at the young man for a second, and then he took the silver ingots on the table and turned around and left Yonghe Qianzhuang.

On Zilanyuan's side, Mu Baizhuo pulled out the silver needle at Nanqiao's tiger's mouth, and at the root of the silver needle, it was faintly black.

Mu Baizhuo immediately frowned,

"Sure enough, it is a symptom of poisoning, but the person who poisons it is very careful, the chronic poison used, if it accumulates for a long time, the light one is easy to be dizzy, and the heavy one may die, if it is not for the silver needle puncture method can not be found at all, fortunately it was found early!" After listening to Mu Baizhuo's words, Nan Qiao had a bottom in her heart, just as she thought, the people in the entire courtyard were poisoned.

first Hua Zixuan's appearance, then "Window Shadow" became inexplicably popular all over Chang'an City overnight, and now her entire courtyard is poisoned... Seeing that she was stunned, Mu Baizhuo thought she was scared, so he said with a joking smile,

"Hey, what is Xiao Wuyu afraid of, there is a son in this world, your poison is not difficult to solve." Nan Qiao came back to his senses and regained his previous looks,

"I don't understand this poison first, does His Royal Highness the Prince of the World have a way to control this poison in my body?"

"Of course there is, but how does Xiao Wuyu plan to thank this son?" He asked with a smile.

"How does His Royal Highness want me to thank you?" Nan Qiao stared at him and asked. Mu Baizhuo rubbed her elbow,

"Last time, shouldn't you tell the ending?" Two days have passed, and Linglong Theater has sung almost ten "Window Shadows" for free in a row, Nan Qiao sat in the courtyard and looked at the book seriously, seeing Ruyi bringing refreshments and melons and fruits, Nan Qiao's eyelids raised slightly,

"Ruyi, you can go to Mu's Pharmacy to help these days!" Ruyi was a little puzzled,

"Miss, why is that?" Nan Qiao said lightly,

"Over the past few days, I owe Mu Baizhuo a lot of favors, and he happens to lack help on his side, so you just happened to go over and help for two days!" Ruyi had to nod,

"Yes, Miss!" The last time Mu Baizhuo came, he specially reminded her that the poison she planted didn't seem to come from her diet, but like she smelled something she shouldn't smell.

Nan Qiao noticed that in the courtyard, the precious chrysanthemums given by the queen not long ago were moved to her yard by the Li family.

In the past few days, Hua Zixuan went to the gate of her courtyard for no reason, and at first he was passed on, but then he didn't ask anyone to pass the word, and he would take the initiative to leave after standing silently at the door for an hour.

But today, it's all over at this point, but he didn't come, which made Nan Qiao a little puzzled, could it be that the Li family has any new plans?

Li didn't move, but Nan Qiao didn't dare to slack off for half a minute. In the afternoon, Nalan Mansion ushered in the county lord of Qingyi and Concubine Liu, who had befriended her a few days ago.

"Wuyu, something is wrong!" As soon as Qingyi entered Zilan Garden, he pulled her and said,

"I went to Shangshu Mansion with Concubine Yan in the morning to attend the old lady's birthday banquet, and I listened to the whispers of the noble ladies below, all of whom were spreading the news about you and the drama Hua Zixuan!" Nan Qiao frowned,

"What did they say?"

"It's hard to say, even the attempt to commit suicide by jumping into the lake last night Hua Zixuan said that it was because you deceived Hua Zixuan's feelings that he would find a short time, and I also heard that these days, Hua Zixuan sang his voice dumb in order to sing "Cut Window Shadow"! This unwarranted thing will affect you for the rest of your life! The county lord of Qingyi was afraid that she would not be able to accept it when she heard this, so he thought about her emotions, so he spoke a little quietly.

"Hua Zixuan committed suicide by jumping into the river, and said that I deceived his feelings? Heh~" Nan Qiao sneered,

"It's so fresh!" Seeing Nan Qiao like this, Qing Yi originally thought that this unwarranted thing would be deducted from the head of a woman who had not left the pavilion, which would make Wuyu at a loss, and she and Concubine Yan were going to say some comforting words, but now that they look at it, there is no need to say it at all.

Liu Feiyan on the side was a little anxious,

"Wuyu, you are still laughing at this time, the urgent thing at the moment is to protect the name and stand up to refute the rumors!" Nan Qiao hooked his lips and smiled, and some sly eyes flashed in his eyes,

"Refute the rumors? Hua Zixuan's play is so wonderful, wouldn't it be a pity to interrupt it like this! Qingyi frowned,

"Wuyu, what Concubine Yan said is not unreasonable, this is not a joke, why do you still let the situation develop? If this continues, the situation will only get worse and worse, and in the end it will become out of control! Nan Qiao had a smile in his eyes,

"I just want to let the situation develop to the point where it is out of control, Qingyi, Feiyan, thank you for informing me today, another day, I invite you to see the wonderful show!" Since several people officially became friends, Qingyi and Liu Feiyan did not allow Nan Qiao to call him by his honorific name, but everyone called each other by each other's names.

Seeing Nan Qiao so confident, the two were still a little worried, and secretly worried about her. Although they haven't known each other for a long time and have few days together, they have a very good impression of Nan Qiao, it can be said that they hit it off at first sight, once these two people like to get along with whom, they will treat each other sincerely, so they are also very concerned about Nan Qiao's affairs, they don't want to lose this friend.

All afternoon, Qingyi and Liu Feiyan spent the whole afternoon in Zilanyuan, and Nanqiao invited them to eat a lot of dried fruits and shortbread.

In fact, on those dried fruits and shortbreads, Nan Qiao used his hands and feet, just to prevent Qingyi and Liu Feiyan from being poisoned.

It wasn't until it was almost dark that she sent the two out of the house. After saying goodbye to the two, Nan Qiao did not return to Zilanyuan, but went to the firewood room in the backyard alone.

Nan Qiao had just walked to the door of the firewood room, and Aunt Zhao, who had been waiting for a long time, walked out from under the hidden tree, she was wearing a black hooded cloak, the black brim covered most of her face, and the shadows around her covered her face, revealing only red lips and chin.

"Second Miss, you're finally here!"
