Chapter 141: Suspicions
But this is a personal matter, and she didn't open her mouth if she didn't ask.
"By the way, my lord, there is one more thing about the slave and maid coming to look for you today." Linlang told about the poisonous rats he encountered when he was working at the bottom of the cold palace before, as well as the peculiar smell in the room where he sold cool supplements.
"So...... Do you suspect that someone borrowed rats to poison them? Qiubai's reaction was faster than she imagined, and she didn't even need to point it out to think about it.
"It's just the slave's suspicion." This extraordinary acumen made Linlang dare not say anything particularly sure in front of him, for fear of causing other speculations.
"Let's go over and have a look, and you lead the way." The young man frowned slightly, put away the booklets and got up.
This kind of large-scale poisoning in the palace is a big deal, and it is not an ordinary means to use live rats to poison.
If you don't stop it, I'm afraid it will cause a catastrophe.
……
Cold Palace.
Although Linlang knew what the problem was, she still followed Qiubai and pretended to be a headless fly for several times.
Finally, he stopped in front of the palace where Concubine Xiaoyi lived before her death, Qiu Bai curled his fingers lightly, and turned back to her.
"You stay back, I'll go take a look first."
Linlang was stunned, and realized that he was protecting himself.
Seeing that he was about to reach out and push open the door, he hurriedly took out two masks from his sleeves, which he had prepared in advance.
"Wait, sir! Let's put this on first. ”
There is medicine added to the mezzanine of the mask, and Qiubai can naturally smell it.
He glanced back at her, his pupils as light as clear water, "You're ready." ”
"This ...... Otherwise, if something happens to the adult, the slave and maid will not blame themselves for the rest of their lives. Linlang smiled awkwardly, but took out two more pairs of gloves as she spoke.
The door was pushed open.
There are still charred blackened from the fire.
Even through the thick mask, you can vaguely smell the unpleasant stench.
Qiu Bai frowned, and stretched out her hand to stop her steps of wanting to move forward, "You stay here first." ”
With that, he walked towards the back room by himself.
Linlang is not an honest master, from the roots. How can you not participate in such a major event?
But as soon as she took a few steps, Qiubai came out of the house, carrying something with a handkerchief in her hand.
Seeing that the little girl had obviously moved from the threshold to the house, her eyelids couldn't help jumping, "Didn't you say that you would ...... Never mind. ”
Anyway, he had already figured out the other party's nature and knew that she would not be obedient at all.
"What is this?"
Linlang was only busy stepping his feet, stretching his neck curiously to look at the Parry thing in his hand, "Rat hair? And rat droppings? ”
"Well, there's something wrong with these things." Qiubai took the handkerchief and walked out, and followed the girl like a donkey with a radish behind him.
When she came out, she didn't even forget to close the door with her backhand.
The young man felt a little funny inexplicably, leaned over, let her see the things in her hand clearly, and said: "These rats should be poisonous, if they bite people, people will get sick." ”
Linlang complained silently in her heart, not only was she sick, but she and Shen Lanyi were both bitten to death in the simulation.
"Nanyi is famous for its strange arts, and it just so happens that this palace used to be inhabited by Nanyi women, and these poisonous rats are afraid that they will not be able to get rid of her."
Qiu Bai burned the handkerchief, his eyes faintly revealed a little coldness, and asked, "How did this Nanyi concubine die before?" ”
"It is said that the palace was burned to death." Linlang responded.
It's just that the young man's next question made her face completely change.
"Didn't you find the body?"
