"Damn, it's not enough friends! Do you kid listen to what you're talking about?" Yue Zhengdao looked at Shangguan Yi in disbelief.

"Hhh, don't be angry, this matter is always an internal affair in the East China Sea, and the water is still very deep. Although I'm still a free man now, there aren't so many taboos, but it's not easy to meddle, not to mention that I also have my own things to do, so I shouldn't get involved in this matter. Shangguan Yi stared at Yue Zhengdao cautiously and said.

"Eh, I know that's the case, but without your help, I will lose a lot of help, and I will be less sure of doing things. Yue Zhengdao sighed.

"No, I just won't be involved in the whole process like you, if there is anything you need help with, I can help you for a fee. Shangguan Yi said shamelessly.

"Damn, listen to what you say again, but if you have a little conscience, you can't do this kind of thing to rob while the fire is hot!" Yue Zhengdao wailed.

"This, I also want to have a good meal, understand?" Shangguan Yi picked up a piece of blood coral and looked at it, and then put it on the other side.

"Do you want to?" Yue Zhengdao noticed his action and raised his eyebrows and asked.

It's not that he is reluctant to ask this, but that this kind of thing is not widely used, the rarity is average, and the preciousness is average, and he doesn't quite understand how Shangguan Yi likes this thing.

"There are a lot of gifts that are just opened in the box, and the contents are not even carefully checked, it is really a big dog. Shangguan Yi seemed to be talking about something else, but his eyes were still fixed on the box with the blood coral just now, as if there was a flower on it.

"What's wrong?" Yue Zhengdao was puzzled, there were some things that he didn't like or were not very important, and there were things sent by people who didn't like it very much, he really just asked Erfu to store it here, and he was too lazy to look at it.

"If I'm not guessing, this box either has a dark layer or it's faulty in its own craftsmanship, and this gift is a toxic gift. Shangguan Yi pointed to the box and said.

"What do you mean?" Yue Zhengdao also frowned, Shangguan Yi didn't look like he was talking nonsense, but if there was any problem with the gift, Erfu should be able to deal with it.

"This piece of blood coral has actually been dealt with by someone, and it does not seem to be flawed in the eyes of people who don't know how to do it, of course, I don't understand it either, but I have seen something similar before, so I am quite impressed, it is not a blood coral, but a blood jade coral, do you know the blood jade coral?" Shangguan Yi explained, a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

"Blood Jade Coral, I seem to have heard of it somewhere, let me think about it......" Yue Zhengdao thought thoughtfully, a little distressed, this thing really didn't seem to be a good thing.

"Blood coral is just a precious coral species, it can be used medicinally, it is valuable but not high, but blood jade coral is different, it is produced in the sea in a silent, almost lifeless, lifeless sea, it is more ornamental than blood coral, but in the medical books with relevant records, it is regarded as a snake and scorpion, because it is the most suitable thing to take out to mix mixed poison and slow poison, you can't imagine how terrifying it is. Shangguan Yi said slowly, there was a piece of blood jade coral at the bottom of the garden pool of Shangguan family, and Shangguan Yi's father had given some medicine that he didn't know what it was, sealing the toxicity of the blood jade coral, as for why he did this...... Because this was given by Emperor Zhongzhen!

"Legend has it that Blood Jade Coral can eat away at luck, so it is considered ominous. Yue Zhengdao followed Shangguan Yi's words and said, there was more coldness in his eyes, this is someone who wants to kill him.

"The most obvious feature of blood jade coral is the smell, a very refreshing smell, which makes people comfortable and addictive, and most people will only put it out after getting it, rather than closing it and hiding it. Shangguan Yi confirmed.

"Then in your opinion, has this piece of blood jade coral been poisoned again?" Yue Zhengdao asked a little nervously.

"I'm not sure, but if it were me, I'd rather believe it. Shangguan Yi pondered for a moment and said.

"Then what should I do? Follow the vine to find out the person, and find a way to get the antidote?" Yue Zhengdao thought of a way, a little bald.

"There's no need to be so complicated, and if it's a vector-triggered poison, it's quite tricky and dangerous, after all, if you're already poisoned, you're probably going to be reduced to fish on a chopping block to be slaughtered. Therefore, rash action is the next policy. Shangguan Yi shook his head.

"Then what should I do? No, why did you say that "we" were poisoned, didn't you have been poisoned? How can you be sure of such a result?" Yue Zhengdao's eyes sharpened.

"I said, I'd rather believe it, and I won't be poisoned whether it's poisonous or not, after all, I'm not going to be put down casually. Shangguan Yi said a little mysteriously, there was really a little bit of mysterious bearing.

"So how should I deal with it?" Yue Zhengdao looked at Shangguan Yi suspiciously, always feeling that he was being fooled.

"You might as well go and find out when this gift was delivered to you first, and discuss the rest with Mo Lan in a while, after all, this may not be a trivial matter, perhaps, your opponent has already unknowingly started a game with you." Shangguan Yi's face was expressionless, his tone was slightly cold, no one would send a piece of blood jade coral treated like this to Yue Zhengdao for no reason, ill-intentioned is the most accurate description, how could such a well-made thing be that it was not poisonous?

Formless and colorless, no blood, no shot, you can kill Yue Zhengdao when you need to, and it is difficult to track down afterwards, this is the purpose of that person, right?

"Knock knock, young master, where to set the table?" Erfu knocked on the door, he had just entered the back room and saw Mo Lan sitting there quietly, he was already very strange, and after chatting with him for a few words, he was a little unsure, so he came over to ask Yue Zhengdao.

"In the back room, you come in first, where is the list of these gifts?" Yue Zhengdao replied.

"The list is with me, before the young master left, I was afraid that someone would take it, and I was told to put it away, you just came back, I haven't had time to give it to you, the young master has a need?" Erfu pushed the door in and replied.

"Who gave this blood coral?" Yue Zhengdao frowned.

"Chen San, a pawn of the Criminal Department, wanted to catch the young master's car, so he sent such a thing over. Erfu thought about it and said affirmatively.

"Chen San, emmm, what is his background?" Shangguan Yi asked.

He ...... has no background, otherwise he wouldn't have come to hug the young master's thigh. Erfu replied with a little embarrassment.

"Don't say so much, maybe there is, but ordinary people can't find it out and can't see it, that's the key, go check him, you can send such a thing, it's not a small minion can do it. Shangguan Yi shook his head, it is a great sin to despise others, and it is easy to capsize in the gutter.

"According to what he said, let the people below check this Chen San, keep the movement small, don't let others find out, and if you can check more details, give me more details. Yue Zhengdao instructed Erfu.

"Yes, young master. Erfu didn't say more, where could he not know if something was wrong when he heard this, and it was a big deal.

"Let's go, go and wait for dinner, I'm a little hungry, what about you?" Shangguan Yi opened the subject.

"Well, I've been busy for so long, of course I'm hungry, otherwise why would I let them cook as soon as I come back?" Yue Zhengdao smiled, he also had a little realization at this time, he didn't fully understand Shangguan Yi's temperament, but he always regarded himself as a friend, and he would not sit idly by and watch his friend die, if there is any way to solve it, so what is his panic?

"Then I'll go and tell the kitchen to let them serve some cold dishes or something first, and cushion their stomachs?"

"Okay, there you go. Yue Zhengdao waved his hand and motioned for Erfu to go down.

Shangguan Yi picked up the blood jade coral, threw it back into the box, covered it, and then walked with Yue Zhengdao to the room in the main hall, but halfway through, he put the box in the pile of gifts on the table in the main hall.

"This will be one of the return gifts for a while, and I will take it back to study it, and it is not appropriate to put it here for you. Shangguan Yi explained in Yue Zhengdao's puzzled eyes.

"It's slow. After Shangguan Yi and Yue Zhengdao sat down, Mo Lan frowned and said, it is indeed a little difficult to communicate.

"There is a new discovery in his treasure house, there is no blood coral or anything like that in your house, there is no place closer to you, right?" Shangguan Yi asked a little uneasily, if Mo Lan was also recruited, there would be no need to investigate this case, and the two main responsible persons were lying down.

"Blood Coral, no, I don't like these bells and whistles, there are not even potted flowers in the study, he has an accident here?" Mo Lan shook his head, he can be said to have no fixed residence, it is possible to stay in Bihai Pavilion for half a year if he is in a good mood, and no one dares to care about her if he doesn't go home, these methods are still a little difficult to deal with him.

"Well, I'm afraid someone is eyeing him, Chen San from the Criminal Department, have you heard of this person?" Shangguan Yi nodded.

"Little minion, you can't get on the stage, right? I have a little impression of the person who has some ability in the Criminal Department, but I have never heard of this person. Mo Lan shook his head, because of his work, he often dealt with the people in the Criminal Department, so he also spent a lot of effort to understand those people in the Criminal Department, and now he naturally knows the personnel of the Criminal Department very well.

"That's interesting, when I asked Erfu just now, he also gave a similar answer, what kind of person can make you all think that he is a little person who is not worth noting?" Shangguan Yi smiled playfully, there are two answers to this question, one is that person is indeed an inconspicuous little person, and the other is that person is just simple on the surface, and what the hell is inside, only he and the people behind the scenes know.

After a while, Erfu came over with a few dishes.

"Young master......" Erfu shouted.

"Say, there's no outsider here. Yue Zhengdao saw that his face was embarrassed, and he knew that something might have happened.

"That person, Chen San, he died, and not long after giving you the gift, he died and died in the line of duty. Erfu said with difficulty, he naturally knew that this matter might not be so simple when he came here, he didn't die sooner or later, but after giving a gift to Yue Zhengdao, he died, and the gift he gave was still a bit of a problem, and it was easy to associate some problems.

"What business, who is the chief judge?" Shangguan Yi asked, this is also what Mo Lan wanted to ask, but it was inconvenient for him to speak.

"It's Lord Liu, the Lord Liu of the Criminal Department, the thing is that when the emperor asked people to expel the demons out of Kyoto, there was a fierce battle, Chen San was not very lucky, he died in that chaos, but no one saw the process of his death. Erfu replied.

"Well, that's kind of interesting. Shangguan Yi knocked on the table.

"Alright, you go guard the door, and then bring the rest of the food over. Yue Zhengdao sent Erfu away, he wanted to discuss this matter with Shangguan Yi and Mo Lan.

"What do you think? You are familiar with officialdom. Shangguan Yi asked, of course, the object was Mo Lan.

"Seventy percent of the probability is inseparable from Lord Liu, the emperor sent a lot of people in that matter, and the Demon Dao does not dare to fight between Kyoto and the East China Sea, as long as you don't look for death by yourself, it is very difficult to want to die, but I'm afraid no one will be so stupid, right? Mo Lan said in an almost affirmative tone.

"This Lord Liu, it's very jumpy, is there someone behind it?" Shangguan Yi frowned, this is the second time I've heard of this Lord Liu, how can he be everywhere.

"Heh, you're very sharp, but I'm not sure. Mo Lan nodded.

"Since you said it, it proves that your suspicion is so, and you are somewhat sure, although there is no evidence, let's talk about it, who is it?" Shangguan Yi asked seriously.

"......" Mo Lan didn't speak, just dipped her finger in some tea and wrote a word on the table: "Uncle", then pointed to the sky, and then wiped it away.

After this action, Yue Zhengdao was also silent, looking at the place that was wiped away in a daze.

"It seems that this person seems to be in the way of you, and the path you have chosen?" Shangguan Yi was the most relaxed of the three, because he had nothing to do with the rain.

"He wasn't happy with his superiority. Mo Lan's words were concise and to the point, but there was a hint of murderous intent in his words.

Those who stand in the way will be killed.

Mo Lan now likes the one on the throne, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is one of that dog, so anyone who stands in his way is his enemy and will be killed.

"Then this matter has to be put on hold for a while, and it is not too late to solve him after you finish investigating the case in hand, during this time, Yue Zhengdao is far away from that group of people. Shangguan Yi didn't continue to pick it up, he didn't dare to ask, he just told Yue Zhengdao to be careful.

"Heh, why wait? I'm afraid this incident has nothing to do with that guy, if not, why would I hide my head and tail so much, and don't dare to come to Yue Zhengdao by myself?" Mo Lan sneered, it's just right to settle together, anyway, sooner or later, it would be better if Yue Zhengdao and him also had a grudge.

"Huh?" Shangguan Yi and Yue Zhengdao spit out the word at the same time.
