Chapter 52: He plucked up courage

Ji Changye was annoyed when he heard An Shishuang's noise, so he said: "Before the truth of this matter is revealed, no one is allowed to talk nonsense. Otherwise, don't blame this king for being unkind. ”

An Shishuang shut up at this time, and didn't dare to make a mistake in front of Ji Changye, so she could only stare at Song Qian secretly.

At this moment, Changfeng and Zeng Kangan had already gathered the people who had come into contact with food along the way, as well as Zhao Liuyin's subordinates, in the courtyard. After sending someone to take care of them, the two came to restore their lives.

"Lord Wang, everyone is in the courtyard. Do you want to go to the trial in person, or do you want to hand it over to your subordinates and the Zeng County Order? ”

Hearing what Changfeng said, Ji Changye made a thoughtful gesture.

Hongyin was afraid that she would really find out about them, so she hurriedly gave Zhao Liuyin a look, and listened to her speak forward: "Lord Wang, there is no need to make a big deal about this matter, there is nothing to worry about." If you delay the blessing ceremony ordered by the Queen Mother, it will not be good. ”

In desperation, Zhao Liuyin had to move out of the Queen Mother.

I thought that Ji Changye would be afraid of three points, and he would carry it lightly.

I didn't want him to insist on his opinion, and his eyes never fell on her and replied: "Miss Zhao, don't worry, the Queen Mother's blessing ceremony will never be delayed." This matter will not pass easily, after all, no one knows if this poisoner has other conspiracies, and it cannot be easily let go. So Miss Zhao, don't worry about this matter. Nagafeng and the prefectural commander will definitely be able to find out the truth. ”

At this time, Zhao Liuyin had nothing to say, and there was no reason to contain Ji Changye again.

Do you just let it go until it is exposed?

"This king will go to see it himself, but he will have to be accompanied by the county commander." With that, Ji Changye stepped out.

How dare Zeng Kangan say nothing, and after secretly wiping away the cold sweat, he hurriedly hunched over and followed.

Only a few people were left in the room looking at each other.

Although Song Qian didn't want to stay, he couldn't leave and had nowhere to go at this time, so he could only silently move the chair to the corner and sit down quietly.

Here, An Shishuang looked at Song Qian with deep and shallow eyes, but he didn't dare to step forward to provoke again because he was afraid of Ji Changye. can only sit down and drink tea with Ying'er's support.

And Zhao Liuyin finally thought of a countermeasure, and suddenly his body fell down. Fortunately, Hongyin's eyes were quick, and he held the person and called with a worried face: "Miss! Miss, what's wrong with you? ”

Song Qian was attracted to his eyes when he heard the voice, looked at it with strange eyes, and saw that Zhao Liuyin was pretending at a glance, so he didn't pay attention to it.

"I was feeling a little uncomfortable, and Hongyin helped me to the bedroom." Zhao Liuyin's voice was weak, as if he was really sick.

An Shishuang, who thought she had a deep sisterhood with her, was very worried at this time, and she was in a hurry to help but was avoided by Zhao Liuyin. But she didn't notice anything, and said, "Do you want to find Lang Zhong?" Liuyin, are you okay? ”

"You don't need to look for Lang Zhong, I'll just rest for a while. Thank you, Shishuang. You don't have to help me, just let Hongyin come. Zhao Liuyin hurriedly waved his hand, for fear of being exposed.

Looking at this good show, Song Qian couldn't help but want to go up and wake up An Shishuang and tell her that she was being played by Zhao Liuyin. Hurry up and wake up, and stop being stupid and become a pawn to be used.

But it seems that An Shishuang will not listen to any advice.

Seeing Zhao Liuyin's figure back to the bedroom, Song Qian got up and prepared to go outside to breathe, otherwise he and An Shishuang would be sarcastic and annoyed by her.

I didn't want to be stopped by Ying'er just after taking two steps, and then I heard An Shishuang's voice behind me: "Stop!" Where are you going? Is it because of a weak heart that you want to run away secretly? I'm telling you, Miss Ben is here, and you won't get away with it. ”

"Who said I was going to run away? Miss An can't restrict people's freedom, right? Besides, the prince has already cleared my name, and Miss An still thinks that I am the murderer, isn't it suspicious of the prince? ”

An Shishuang was speechless for a moment, and Song Qian didn't say anything more and turned around and walked out of the room.

The people who were summoned gathered in the courtyard at this moment, and they all lowered their heads and did not dare to look directly at Ji Changye in front of them.

Changfeng was searching his body one by one, very strict and not letting go of any clues, which invisibly made everyone nervous.

Hearing the movement behind him, Ji Changye looked back at Song Qian and was a little surprised, and then walked to her and said, "Where is Song Niangzi going?" I'll send you there. ”

"Thank you, the princess, the people don't want to leave here. It's just that I feel that the house is too stuffy, so I just came out for a walk, and I troubled the prince to meddle in this matter. ”

Song Qian didn't dare to look up at Ji Changye, so he could only focus on the people who were being searched not far away.

"There is something strange about this matter, and the investigation should be done. However, the weather outside is slightly cool, so don't get caught by the wind chill. After that, Ji Changye suddenly took off the cloak on his body and draped it for Song Qian.

"Lord, this can't be helped." Song Qian hurriedly dodged over and let Ji Changye's movements flutter into the air.

Song Qian took the cloak and put it on for Ji Changye again, and said, "The prince's old illness has not been cured yet, so he shouldn't get cold." "She has no identity and reason to be treated like this by Ji Changye, not to mention that if he really causes an accident to happen to the old disease, wouldn't it be troublesome?

Ji Changye was helpless in his heart, he finally mustered up the courage to approach Song Qian, wanting to make clear the previous misunderstanding, and didn't want to give him this opportunity at all.

Why is it so hard to apologize?

If Changfeng is here, maybe it will be successful.

Thinking like this, Ji Changye's eyes when he looked at Changfeng for the first time were full of expectations and needs.

And Changfeng here had no intention of looking at each other, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Because he didn't see what Ji Changye wanted to express, but felt that he was slowly provoking Ji Changye, so he hurriedly accelerated the process.

Seeing Changfeng turn around and ignore himself, Ji Changye felt that maybe the two of them were really not suitable to be masters and servants.

"Lord Wang." Song Qian saw that Ji Changye was stunned and a little uncertain, thinking that he was uncomfortable, so he hurriedly called him lightly.

After coming back to his senses, Ji Changye embarrassedly put down the hand holding the cloak just now, shook his head and said, "I'm fine." ”

"It's fine."

There was suddenly no atmosphere of communication between the two, so they could only stand in the courtyard separately, watching Changfeng busy boringly.

And at this time in the bedroom.

After helping Zhao Liuyin to the bed and sitting down, Hongyin looked around and closed the doors and windows.

"It seems that if they can't find the murderer now, they won't stop easily." Zhao Liuyin had completely lost the weak appearance just now, and said to Hongyin very seriously.

Hongyin was clever, and quickly understood the meaning of Zhao Liuyin's words, and lowered his voice vigilantly outside: "If you find someone to blame, what does Miss think of An Shishuang?" After all, it was in her name that provoked the incident, and at that time, it was said that she had formed a bond with Song Qian before and intended to cause harm. ”

Zhao Liuyin lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then shook his head and denied: "No." Although An Shishuang is stupid, she has an An family behind her, and if something happens, the An family will inevitably be thoroughly investigated, and the risk of exposure at that time is very great. ”

The cloth workshops of the An family are famous in the imperial capital or other places, and their ancestors are all in business, so there will be no shortage of contacts. What's more, if you can gain a firm foothold in the imperial capital for many years, you must have nobles to help you on the dominant side, and the background is huge.

Zhao Liuyin was afraid of these, so he naturally didn't dare to easily beat An Shishuang's idea.

But now she has to find someone to blame, and this person must be her subordinate, so that nothing goes wrong.

Hongyin was able to understand at one point, and his eyes rolled slightly, and he suddenly had a candidate, and told Zhao Liuyin: "What does the young lady think of Ping'er?" She is just a maid who takes care of the flowers and plants in the house, and she is sent by her wife to serve, and she is usually inconspicuous. And when the slave saw her when the food was delivered, she followed the officials to the side room. If you push her out, there are words to prove that it is not. ”

Zhao Liuyin nodded this time, and said that there was no other way but to give it a go.

After the two finalized it, Hongyin walked out with the bag of medicine, while Zhao Liuyin stayed in the room and was uneasy.

When Song Qian unintentionally turned around, he saw Hongyin in addition to the room, and wondered in her heart that she was not in the room waiting for Zhao Liuyin to come out for something.

Just as she wanted to lean over to take a closer look, Changfeng suddenly came over and reported loudly, attracting her attention back.

"Lord Wang! A few of his subordinates had just searched for it, and there was nothing strange about them. ”

Because there are still maids in the courtyard, Zeng Kangan sent a grandmother. At this time, she also searched the girls' bodies, walked over and said tremblingly: "Lord Wang, the old slave didn't find anything suspicious. ”

Ji Changye frowned slightly and said, "Nothing?" Could it be that the poison came out of thin air? ”

Now it can only be said that one thing can be said, the real poisoner is not among them, so who else?

Just when everyone was slandering in their hearts, Hongyin had already returned from Ping'er's room and helped Zhao Liuyin out of the room.

"Lord Wang, since you can't find them on them, maybe they are hiding somewhere else." At this time, she still did not change the weak look on her face, and said in a weak tone.

Song Qian couldn't help but admire her for pretending to be more like Ji Changye in front of her.

But Ji Changye didn't care about her current appearance, just followed her words and said, "Miss Zhao is right, this poison may be hidden somewhere else." Changfeng, you take people to search their quarters. ”

Zhao Liuyin didn't expect Ji Changye to believe his words so easily, and couldn't help but be secretly happy in his heart.

At this time, An Shishuang also walked out, still refusing to let go of Song Qian, and said: "Since this is the case, the prince will also search Song Qian's residence, lest she really use any means." ”

Song Qian couldn't help but sigh helplessly.

How did he offend her? Holding himself and not forgiving, as if he had a great hatred.

"In this case, it is better to search Miss An's residence as well, after all, it is the poison that Miss An has tested." Song Qian unceremoniously retaliated with a tooth for a tooth.

An Shishuang became anxious when she heard this: "Why are you still spewing blood?" How could Miss Ben hurt the streamer? Lord Wang, don't listen to her nonsense! You must be empty-hearted when you say that......"

Ji Changye was helpless by the noise, and interrupted her in a cold voice: "Shut up, this king has said that this matter has nothing to do with Song Niangzi." How far do you want to be unforgiving? Since this matter has nothing to do with you, don't make trouble again. Otherwise, this king will send you back to the imperial capital, and let An Tongfu discipline you well. ”

Hearing that she was going to be sent back to the imperial capital and that her father would be alarmed, An Shishuang suddenly stopped her mouth and didn't dare to make a sound.

Zhao Liuyin saw that Ji Changye was protecting Song Qian like this, and he twisted the handkerchief in his hand with jealousy, expressing his anger.

A moment later, Changfeng rushed back with a group of officials.

"Lord Wang, this was found in the maid's room." As he spoke, he opened a packet of pills and presented it.

Zeng Kangan took two steps forward and smelled the smell before recognizing what it was, and said, "Lord Wang, this is the beginning of the Taichu San." If a person takes it, he will soon become dizzy and die violently. However, Su Lou Town is remote, this poison is only available in Dijing, and it was banned earlier, how can it appear here? ”

If you ask him why he knew, it wasn't that he went to Beijing to worship the saint earlier, and was almost killed by this thing. At that time, he knew that this Taichu Scatter was a forbidden object, and it could only be bought unless it was a powerful person, and ordinary people could not find it.

In this way, it can be proved that Song Qian is definitely not a murderer.
