There is actually a water source behind this tent, which Wang Ping has mentioned a little before, he always feels that there is a problem, but he has never been able to think of it.

But now she finally knew what was wrong, because this water source, if it was right......

"Is this the water they drank that night?" Chen Ping gasped, his eyes were different.

Liu Tingshi hurriedly came up and said: "It's to drink this water, otherwise what water can you drink for dinner this night." ”

Chen Ping and Wang Ping glanced at each other, and they were both silent.

Then Wang Ping said in a deep voice: "Imperial Doctor Chen, it seems that we are all thinking too complicated. ”

Chen Ping took a deep breath and said, "Take this water back and feed it to the head horse." ”

……

The group went back to the inn again.

But after a while, a subordinate came in to report.

"Foaming at the mouth, not dead, but almost there." That person is Han Bin.

They came back with some water and fed a horse.

Liu Yuan said in a deep voice: "This shows that there is indeed a problem with that river. ”

The crown prince muttered: "No wonder Commander Lin drank some of that water and had diarrhea, it turned out that it was poisonous inside." ”

"Now it seems that those 3,000 people were most likely poisoned by this water." Wang Ping sighed.

"Then why didn't our horses die?" The prince was surprised: "If this water is poisonous enough, shouldn't our horse be poisoned to death if we drink it now?" ”

Chen Ping said: "This poison has been diluted for so long, more than ten days, and now the toxicity is no longer enough." ”

Wang Ping's face was ugly.

At this time, you don't need to think about it, I am afraid that someone deliberately poisoned the water problem.

Chen Ping smiled bitterly: "Actually, what I thought about before was that maybe the other party pretended to be a shopkeeper, mixed in with these 3,000 people, and then assassinated, but once I arrived at the camp, I felt that it was impossible, because it was too difficult, there were cliffs on both sides of that place, and there was a river source behind it, there was only one way up the mountain, and we had seen the road up the mountain before, if someone appeared, we would see it above, let alone blend into the barracks." ”

"What shop junior?" The crown prince said blankly.

Prime Minister Wang Cheng said lightly: "There has been a saying in the rivers and lakes that the shopkeeper comes to the door, and there is a chance that he will be cheated." ”

The prince was stunned.

Chen Ping said with a smile: "Prince, if it's okay, if a shopkeeper suddenly comes to you, there is a problem." ”

Suddenly, Chen Ping suddenly thought of the assassination with the prince in Wanhualou, didn't he also meet a shopkeeper that time?

The crown prince seemed to have thought of something, his face was strange, and he said, "I understand." ”

Chen Ping nodded and said, "This is in the inn, pretending to be the shopkeeper, and in this barracks, the pretending to be a soldier is a soldier." ”

The crown princess next to her said in a deep voice: "What you thought about before was that this thief pretended to be three thousand soldiers and blended into the camp tent to assassinate them, right?" ”

Chen Ping nodded and said, "Yes, that's why I want Lord Liu to take us to the scene to have a look, because I still have one thing to understand." ”

Wang Ping said: "It's a corpse." ”

Chen Ping rubbed his eyebrows and said, "What I think is that they were assassinated by the thieves who blended in, but even if they were assassinated, their bodies could not disappear for no reason, but now even the speculation of assassination is wrong, they were poisoned." Either way, the corpse remains a mystery. ”

Wang Ping sighed: "No wonder you can destroy these 3,000 people, without getting close to my 3,000 people, you still want to kill these 3,000 people, this is the best way to poison the water source behind, otherwise that mountain road is a real natural danger, and it is absolutely impossible for anyone to sneak into the barracks." ”

"Now we can already know that these people were not assassinated, but poisoned." Chen Ping sighed: "I have thought about this before, but I didn't expect that it was a river that was all poisoned. ”

To poison 3,000 people without causing any disturbance is undoubtedly as difficult as sending people to capture 3,000 alive, because if you want to poison all 3,000 people, not a single one can be missed.

Therefore, Chen Ping never thought that it would be easier to poison 3,000 people at once than to infiltrate and assassinate 3,000 people.

But now it seems...... Chen Ping sighed, but it seemed to be very easy.

If it is only to attack the river behind it, these 3,000 soldiers and civilians will definitely have to work on this water if they want to eat and cook, and this food and drink is undoubtedly for 3,000 people, so it will not be a problem to poison 3,000 people in a short time.

It's okay if you don't eat, but you can't go without water all night.

"Is Commander Lin's stomach still pulling?" Chen Ping smiled bitterly.

The prince said helplessly: "When I come back, I won't stop pulling." ”

Chen Ping nodded and said, "It seems that I haven't drunk much, otherwise I'm afraid I'll have to foam at the mouth." ”

But isn't it, this water can poison people, and after more than ten days, it will foam at the mouth when it is brought back to the horse, so if Commander Lin drinks too much, I am afraid it will not be diarrhea.

"These thieves are really ruthless." The crown princess gritted her teeth and said: "It turned out that he directly poisoned and killed my three thousand soldiers, no wonder he let these people die silently." ”

Chen Ping glanced at her, remembered something, and said to Wang Ping: "Where does this river flow?" ”

Before Wang Ping could speak, Liu Tingshi, who was next to him, suddenly changed his face and said in shock: "I remember, it flowed to a mountain village thirty miles away. ”

Chen Ping's face changed.

Wang Ping took a deep breath and said, "What kind of water do they drink?" ”

Liu Yuan's face turned pale, and he gritted his teeth and said, "That villager is the source of water for food." ”

Chen Ping exhaled and just wanted to speak, but at this moment, there was a knock on their door.

The crown princess walked over and opened the door, and then a master dressed as an official walked in.

As soon as he came in, he was in a hurry, ran to Liu Yuan's side with a pale face, and whispered a few words.

"What!" Liu Yuan changed color in shock.

A bad premonition arose in Wang Ping's heart, and he said in a deep voice: "Liu Tingshi, what's the alarm. ”

Liu Yuan took a deep breath and said, "Someone came to report that in that mountain village in the thirty miles of land, there are suddenly countless people in pain today, their whole bodies are swollen, their faces are black, and many people have died. ”

Chen Ping sighed beside him: "Is it still a step too late, sure enough, these people are also implicated." ”

Wang Ping said angrily: "These people are arrogant, they dare to frame them like this, all the sources of a river are poisoned, not only poisoning my 3,000 soldiers and civilians, plundering my 300,000 silver, but also persecuting innocent people. ”

Chen Ping looked helpless.

Things have happened, and now if you want to raid people's houses, you have to wait to find it, but now it's troubles one after another.
