Chapter Ninety-Eight: Extinguishing the Mouth
"Ah Qing, is your method reliable?Why is there no movement in the house?"
Bai Liya was worried about Bai Liyu's injury, so she lived in Su Mansion for the past few days.
"Heck, as long as the fish you catch is big enough, you don't have to wait for a long time. Su Qing didn't look worried at all.
Two days ago, that is, on the evening of Baili Yu's poisoning, he had asked Ning Qi to inadvertently reveal the news, saying that someone had secretly come to report it.
also intercepted a letter from outside the house, the letter was in the study, and she deliberately let people relax the guards in the study.
The bait was already placed, and now she just had to wait for the fish to take the bait.
"But..."Bailiya still walked around the room anxiously, and if the person who poisoned her was not caught, her third brother would be in danger for one more day.
"You don't know who the fish is, so it's useless to be anxious. Su Qing said.
"But the third brother's side..."
"Ah Yu and I both have life and death Gu in our bodies, I am tied to him together, I am not in a hurry, what are you anxious about. ”
Bailiya looked at Su Qing's calm appearance, and simply fell backwards, and collapsed directly on the soft chair, speechless and looking at the sky.
......
It was night, although the Su Mansion was still brightly lit, the guards were a lot more relaxed.
A little maid in green clothes named Lu'er came to the study with a snack box, "Two big brothers, you have worked hard, this is what Miss asked me to bring to reward the two." ”
The two guards guarding the door glanced at each other, and said with a happy face, "Then you go back and thank Miss on our behalf." ”
The guard took the snack box and ate it aside.
Midori glanced at them and stepped aside quietly.
I went straight through the window at the back of the study.
Bang - Bang -
The sound of a fight came from the study, and the little maid was quickly caught by Ning Qi, who was hiding in the study.
Ning Qi slipped people all the way to Su Qing's courtyard.
Bailiya has been sleeping in the same room with Su Qing for the past few days, after all, she is a princess, and Su Qing is also afraid that something will happen to her in Su Mansion, so she will let her have a room with herself.
Bailiya heard the movement outside, and immediately ran out, "Ah Qing, come on, catch it, catch it." ”
"Shhhhhh Su Qing made a silent motion, it was already very late, and the people in the courtyard had already slept.
If you wake them up and don't get a good night's rest, they won't be able to do a good job during the day.
Bailiya looked at Su Qing apologetically, there was no way, she was so happy that she forgot the time all of a sudden.
"Say, who instructed you?" Su Qing looked coldly at Lu'er who was thrown to the ground by Ning Qi.
The killing intent in her eyes appeared, but she quickly hid it, and in an instant, she regained her clear eyes.
When Lu'er heard this, her body slumped to the ground, and she realized that she had been tricked.
Ning Qi saw that Lu'er refused to speak, with a wave of his hand, the guards brought the torture instrument with his fingers, he rushed over as soon as possible, put the torture instrument on Lu'er's ten fingers, blocked her mouth, and then pulled it fiercely, "Lu'er, you confess honestly, who instructed you to poison you? If you don't confess, I want your life!"
Although Bai Li Yu is Ning Qi's former owner, he has also been with Bai Li Yu for so long, and people have feelings, so they can say that they will let go.
He will definitely not let go of Lu'er and the mastermind behind it.
Lu'er was in pain, she wanted to scream, but her mouth was blocked, and she couldn't vent her pain when she was in pain, which was the most torturous.
This clip almost broke her fingers, ten fingers connected to the heart, her hands were covered with blood, and she burst into tears, but she still said stubbornly: "There is no mastermind, everything is my unauthorized claim, I have a grudge against the third prince, I poisoned it, and there is no mastermind at all." ”
The implication is that Lu'er has pleaded guilty. But the mastermind behind it was not confessed.
Su Qing said coldly: "Say, who is the person pretending to be Steward Zhang?"
At this moment, Lu'er's body trembled even more in panic, she couldn't confess that person, absolutely not.
And the guards have already used the torture again, almost breaking Lu'er's fingers.
Lu'er was in pain, blood was flowing on her hands, and she said bitterly: "Yes, the slave maid is impersonated, the slave maid used a human skin mask, and she imitated the young lady's appearance as a man, pretending to be a steward, and the poison was also given to the prince by the slave maid." ”
Lu'er gritted her teeth tightly, her family was in the hands of that family, even if she died, she would not confess the mastermind behind the scenes.
She didn't want to do this at all, she didn't want to be sorry for Miss, but the other party gave her a sum of money that she couldn't earn as a cow or a horse in her life, and threatened her with her family's lives, she had to do it.
For the sake of her family's life, she had to be sorry for Miss.
If she dies this time, she can atone for her sins to Steward Zhang, and she won't have to live so guiltily anymore.
Su Qing said coldly: "Would you rather die than protect the person pretending to be in charge of Zhang? Lu'er, have you been threatened? Or, is your family in the hands of others? You tell me honestly, as long as you are willing to tell the truth, I will help your family and let you go." ”
"Really?" With a glimmer of hope in her eyes, Lu'er looked at Su Qing in disbelief.
"Really, I've said it, and it's hard to chase after me. Su Qing said.
"Slave maid...... Lu'er was about to speak, when suddenly, her mouth opened wide, her body stiffened uncomfortably, and then, her body tilted, and she fell heavily to the ground.
Seeing this, Su Qing hurriedly stepped forward, she saw Lu'er lying on the ground, black blood flowing from the corner of her mouth, her eyes widened, her body stiffened, and she had lost her breath.
Su Qing stretched out her hand and probed in front of Lu'er's nose, with a sad face, and said, "She's dead!"
"Dead so soon?" Ning Qi was shocked, he walked over and turned over Lu'er's body to check.
After checking, he suddenly found two silver needles on Lu'er's neck, and he quickly pulled out the silver needles, "Miss, you see, she has been hit by a needle, and this needle is highly poisonous." ”
Su Qing also hurriedly looked at the needle, it was two silver very ordinary silver needles, there were no marks and patterns on them, and the tip of the needle was black, which showed that it was highly poisonous.
"The other party is killing people, Lu'er is dead, it seems that there is no proof of death, and the people behind the scenes can't be found out for the time being. Su Qing said in a deep voice.
Bailiya glanced at Lu'er's corpse, she was not afraid, but when she lived in the palace, she secretly saw a lot of this kind of thing, "Ning Qi, have you seen this kind of silver needle?"
"Back to the princess, this kind of silver needle is too common, and it is everywhere on the street. Generally, killers with some strength, in order to show their strength, will tattoo unique marks on the hidden weapon, but these two silver needles are very ordinary, it seems that the person doesn't want everyone to know his identity. "Ning Qidao.
Su Qing said suspiciously: "The needle is ordinary, but this poison is not ordinary, this poison is a bloody throat, extracted from the venom in the arrow poison tree, this poison can kill people instantly, and the person who will make this poison must not be an ordinary person." As long as you check the poison master, you may be able to find out something. ”
"Wow, Ah Qing, you're so good, how do you know everything?" Bai Liya was frowning on the side, and when she saw Su Qing, she immediately recognized the poisoning, suddenly clapped her hands, and looked at Su Qing with admiration.
"This is all taught by my master. Immediately, Su Qing instructed Ning Qi again, "That killer has just finished killing Lu'er, he must not have run far, why don't you take someone to chase after him?"
She didn't expect that those killers were so bold, and there were secret guards all around Su Mansion, and he actually dared to come.
She had to get this man out. "Yes, miss, my subordinates will go right away. ”
As for Bai Liyu's side, in fact, he had already woken up on the day of his poisoning, and Su Qing kept letting him pretend to be unconscious in order to lure people out.
Now that this person has also been found out, she should also breathe a sigh of relief.
