Chapter 14: someone poisoned
Chapter 14 Someone Poisoned
"It's okay, I'm just a little tired, I'll be fine after a short rest."
Jiang Sijin was busy serving porridge, and didn't care about Jiang Ruyun any more.
After leaving, Jiang Ruyun walked to the back, and she stopped after a certain distance from the team.
"Miss?"
At this moment, Xi'er, Jiang Ruyun's maidservant, ran to her side in a hurry. Seeing her, Jiang Ruyun hurriedly said, "Well, you can find the person I asked you to find."
"Already found it."
Glancing at the team in the distance, Xi'er said softly.
Hearing her words, Jiang Ruyun smiled a little, and now she wanted to see what Jiang Peihuan would do.
"Miss, the old lady has agreed to come here to give the porridge. If the old lady knows about this, I'm afraid..."
"you shut up."
Glinging Xi'er a cold look, Jiang Ruyun said angrily, "Only you and I know about this matter. If you don't tell me, no one will know that I did it."
"Or, do you want to betray me?"
When she said the last sentence, Jiang Ruyun looked at Xi'er with a gloomy expression, and Xi'er quickly knelt down, "Miss, don't be angry, Xi'er will never dare."
"Hmph, don't forget that I am your master."
Worried that Jiang Peihuan would find herself slipping away, Jiang Ruyun turned around and went to the porridge place.
Beside the carriage.
Although he already had guesses in his mind, when he saw Xiao Nanye's face, Jiang Peihuan was still somewhat puzzled.
It is said that King Cheng has disappeared without a trace, and the emperor often cannot find him. Why is he so idle now.
"Greetings to King Cheng."
Despite all kinds of guesses in his heart, when he walked to the carriage, Jiang Peihuan still greeted him in a low voice.
"Miss, please stand up."
"I came here today because I heard that the Jiang family came to give porridge outside the city. In recent years, the Qi State has been fighting continuously, and the people's life is not easy. Giving porridge is something that benefits the country and the people. I also want to do my best. , Miss, please don't refuse."
If it was something else, Jiang Peihuan could still refuse, but she couldn't refuse this food, so after hearing his words, she saluted again, "That's it, Peihuan thanked the prince on behalf of the people in the city."
"If the prince has no other orders, Pei Huan will leave first."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xiao Nanye's response, she was about to leave, but just as she started to walk, she saw Tweety walking towards this side in a hurry, "Miss, something happened."
"Don't worry, what's going on?" Jiang Peihuan said in a low voice, seeing the anxiety on Mouth's face. Seeing the calmness in her eyes, Tweety'er gradually calmed down.
"Someone has been poisoned."
"Poisoned?"
Hearing this, Jiang Peihuan frowned, "My lord, Peihuan will leave first, I..."
"Poisoning is a serious matter. This king will work with you to find out what is the cause."
Without waiting for Jiang Peihuan to say anything, Xiao Nanye led Han Feng forward.
"Miss, this?"
Looking at King Cheng's back, Tweety's eyes were full of surprise, "Go first."
After finishing speaking, Jiang Peihuan took a step forward.
"This porridge is prepared by my general's mansion, and it will definitely not be poisonous. Don't talk nonsense."
Walking to the porridge place, Jiang Peihuan saw a messy scene. A woman was lying on the ground with blood on the corner of her mouth. Beside her was a seven or eight-year-old boy kneeling beside the woman with tears in her eyes. A man next to her pointed at Jiang Sijin. He scolded, "My mother-in-law was fine before, she just drank the porridge you gave me."
"It's not that your porridge is poisonous, what else can it be?"
"My folks, this porridge is poisonous, so don't drink it."
After scolding Jiang Sijin, the man shouted to the people around him, and when he heard the word poisonous, the people who lined up before all backed away.
"I also drank this porridge, shouldn't I be poisoned too?"
"Don't listen to his nonsense, if the porridge is really poisonous, how dare my general's mansion give it to the people, are you not afraid of being held accountable by the emperor?"
Jiang Sijin yelled at the man with eyes full of anger, and then explained to the dispersed crowd.
"Yeah, it's not the first time the General's Mansion has donated porridge. Could there be other reasons?"
"I recognize this person, he is Wang Qiang from Wangjia Village, his wife was married later, and he is not good to his wife..."
Everyone said something to each other, and the whole porridge scene was like a vegetable market.
Seeing that the painting style was not what he wanted, Wang Qiang's expression changed, and he shouted at Jiang Sijin, "I don't care, it's the porridge from your general's mansion that poisoned my mother-in-law. I'm going to report to the police."
"Big sister, you asked you to prepare this porridge, so there must be something wrong with it?"
When Jiang Sijin was being scolded by everyone, Jiang Ruyun kept hiding aside. When she saw Jiang Peihuan's figure appear, she hurriedly spoke out.
Wang Qiang also understood the reason at this time, and yelled at Jiang Peihuan directly, "How can you, an unruly woman like you, be kind enough to give porridge? You are clearly..."
"You dare to scold my eldest sister, I will tear your mouth apart."
When she was scolded before, Jiang Sijin was not very angry, but when she heard Wang Qiang insulting Jiang Peihuan, she immediately pulled out the purple long whip around her waist, raised her hand and threw it at Wang Qiang.
"Sijin, stop!"
Seeing Jiang Sijin's movements, Jiang Peihuan took out a long black whip from his waist, flicked it casually, and entangled Jiang Sijin's whip.
"Sister, didn't you hear him scolding you?"
Being scolded is not angry, Jiang Sijin's eyes are red when he hears Jiang Peihuan being scolded.
Seeing Jiang Sijin's angry look, Jiang Peihuan's heart warmed up, she let go of the whip, and she whispered, "Why should you care about something that is nothing."
Placing Jiang Sijin well, Jiang Peihuan gave Jiang Ruyun a cold look. Jiang Ruyun, who originally wanted to fan the flames, saw Jiang Peihuan's expression, and her heart trembled.
She didn't dare to say anything more, and she could let other people say it. She glanced at Wang Qiang calmly.
Receiving Jiang Ruyun's gaze, Wang Qiang yelled at Jiang Peihuan with eyes full of anger, "I don't care, my mother-in-law is poisoned, if she dies, you are the murderer, you have to kneel down and give..."
"Let me hear you say another word, and I will cut you up and feed you to the dogs."
Xiao Nanye had been standing quietly beside Jiang Peihuan, but after hearing Wang Qiang's insults to Jiang Peihuan, the man couldn't bear it anymore, and gave Wang Qiang a hostile look.
Wang Qiang immediately knelt down when he heard the word "My King".
He suddenly regretted a little, but right now, regretting is useless.
Hearing Xiao Nanye's words, he cried quickly, "My lord, you want to make the decision for the grass people, this Miss Jiang family poisoned my mother-in-law to death."
"Your mother-in-law is not dead yet."
Under Xiao Nanye's signal, Ye Xiao walked up to Jiang Peihuan, "Miss, this woman has taken arsenic."
