Chapter 160 Poisoning
Chapter 160 Poisoning
Gu Shiyin simply couldn't imagine what had happened in the private room!
Why was his brother smearing something black on the Third Prince's face? The Third Prince was not to be outdone and smeared something back on him.
Gu Shiyin: “…”
She closed the door with a snap, took a deep breath, turned around and said to Mu Tangxi, "Sister Tangxi, please wait outside for a moment. I...I have something to talk to the Third Prince and my brother about!"
Mu Tangxi was blocked by Gu Shiyin and didn't know what happened in the private room, but judging from Gu Shiyin's expression, it shouldn't be a big deal.
She nodded, watched Gu Shiyin open a crack, whoosh in, and then the door of the private room was closed tightly.
During the process, Mu Tangxi was not allowed to see any of the scenes inside the Accord.
Mu Tangxi:?
She was really curious now.
The waiter at the restaurant asked in a normal voice, "Dear guest, would you like to order food now?"
As the waiter spoke, he handed the note in his hand to the owner with both hands.
Mu Tangxi took it naturally and said, "Bring some cakes and tea first."
"Yes."
The smile on Gu Shiyin's face disappeared the moment the door closed, and was replaced by a murderous expression.
"Tell me, what are you doing!"
This voice seemed to come from hell, filled with Gu Shiyin's suppressed anger.
Ji Qichen and Gu Shiming froze in an instant. They turned their heads one by one, and what they saw was Gu Shiyin's ferocious expression.
"!!!"
Well, so terrible!
Ji Qichen slowly withdrew his hand that was pressing on Gu Shiming's face, sat back down obediently, and quietly wiped the toner off his face with a handkerchief.
Gu Shiming also took his hand back, raised his head as if nothing had happened, and asked, "Sister, why did you come back so soon? Where is Miss Mu?"
Ji Qichen was startled after hearing this, and he wiped his face harder and harder, leaving red marks which were very conspicuous on his fair face.
Oh no, Tangxi is coming back. If I had known this, I wouldn’t have teased Gu Shiming!
Who would have thought that the great Marquis Jingyang would insist on wiping the toner back?
Ji Qichen had misjudged the person. He thought Gu Shiming was easy to bully, but he didn't expect him to end up in such an embarrassing state now.
He felt very regretful and he even wet his handkerchief with the tea in the cup so that he could wipe it more cleanly.
But seeing the large black spot on the handkerchief, Ji Qichen couldn't hold it anymore. What should he do?
You don’t have to think about what his face will look like at this moment. Even if you really don’t know, you should know it by looking at Gu Shiming opposite you!
Gu Shiyin helped her brother wipe his face, "What on earth are you doing? Sister Tangxi is still waiting outside the door!"
Gu Shiming recalled the cause of the incident and was furious. He pointed at the Third Prince and said, "It was the Third Prince who first deliberately stained my hands with carbon powder. I was just fighting back."
Gu Shiyin slapped away her brother's hand that was pointing at the prince, "Okay, okay, I get it, clean your face quickly! We can't let Sister Tangxi wait outside all the time!"
Gu Shiming, who was treated perfunctorily by his sister, pursed his lips a little aggrieved and glared fiercely at the Third Prince who looked like a human being opposite him.
Ji Qichen raised his lips provocatively and said, "Come here if you're capable!"
Gu Shiming frowned and said, "No, if you have the guts, come over here first!"
Ji Qichen shrugged. Hey, I just don't have the ability, so what? Do you have the ability?
Gu Shiming was so angry that his chest heaved rapidly and veins popped on his forehead. Just when he was about to lose control, Gu Shiyin slapped his brother on the head.
"Calm down, stop making trouble, Sister Tangxi must be tired after standing for so long!"
What a bunch of hold-ups!
Gu Shiming's mood was directly interrupted by the slap, and he glanced away sullenly.
Ji Qichen's expression changed, and he looked down at the handkerchief quietly, as if he was studying the pattern on it.
After quickly cleaning up their faces, Gu Shiyin hurriedly opened the door and let Sister Tangxi come in and sit down.
Mu Tangxi looked around curiously and soon noticed the black powder on the two people's clothes and the red marks on their faces.
Her eyes became increasingly hesitant. Could a fight have broken out?
She didn't bring Shi Yin out to let them fight!
This... is there still a possibility of forming an alliance?
Mu Tangxi's eyes darkened for a moment, and she decided to do it herself.
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Yu Luo walked quickly on the path with her head down.
She has left the yard now, but this has violated the master's order of house arrest, so she must not be discovered.
She clenched the small bottle in her hand and repeated in her mind: She must not be discovered!
Yu Luo walked around the Prime Minister's Mansion for a long time and finally came to the courtyard of the concubine and her children.
Ever since the last incident, the master moved them from the guest room to the courtyard farthest from the lady's courtyard.
Yu Luo looked around cautiously, her palms sweating, making the small bottle slippery. She almost lost her grip and dropped it on the ground.
She wiped the sweat from her hands with her clothes, and sneaked into the room while the servant was changing shifts.
She didn't know who lived in this room, but she knew that it would be good for the lady if any of the three of them was poisoned.
Yu Luo looked around. Although she had inquired about their whereabouts in advance and knew that no one was there, she was still a little frightened.
She tightly grasped the small bottle in her hand; this was the poison that the lady brought from the general's mansion.
And it’s not a strong poison, it’s a chronic poison that can penetrate into the bone marrow!
As long as it is not detected in the early stage, it will be impossible to save it even if you want to save it later.
Yu Luo pursed her lips, carefully pinched the bottle with her sleeve, covered her nose with her other hand, and sprinkled the gray powder in the bottle into the teapot and on the bandage on the table.
When Yu Luo saw the bandages, she knew whose room this belonged to.
After doing all this, there was still a lot of powder left in the bottle, so Yu Luo sprinkled poison in the other two rooms as well.
There was a little bit of it on the lip balm, in the teapot, and even under the pillow.
It is also good to inhale it into your nose when you sleep at night.
After finishing this task, Yu Luo hurried back, washed the porcelain bottle in her hand with water, and then threw it into the pond in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Now no one can find evidence.
Yu Luo returned to the lady's yard, panting, and reported to her that she had finished.
Xu Jingshu finally laughed heartily and said, "My dear, please don't blame me."
You betrayed me first.
"Well done, Yu Luo, you are better than the previous ones." Xu Jingshu praised and grabbed a handful of silver and gave it to Yu Luo.
The tension and panic in Yu Luo's heart were finally calmed down at this moment.
Xu Jingshu's dark eyes are very scary. Let her see who will die first?
