The way Lu Si could think of was to use all available connections to get to know the housekeeper of Shen's house.

Do whatever you can to please.

Although the housekeeper of the Shen Mansion has seen many good things, who would refuse the benefits given away for free?

What's more, Lu Si is indeed a person with high emotional intelligence. He can talk, know things, and has eyes.

As time went by, he became very familiar with the housekeeper.

Lu Si didn't have any excessive demands. He just wanted to send some meat to the military camp and promised to give the housekeeper a share of the benefits.

For a housekeeper, this is a piece of cake.

He is the chief manager of the Shen Mansion, and is in charge of all matters in the Mansion except for security and guarding, not to mention procurement.

He first asked Lu Si to deliver it to the house. During that time, the kitchen tried various methods to prepare various pork dishes for Shen Huaixin to eat.

Pork ribs, elbows, hooves, braised, fried, soup, etc.

The carefully selected ingredients are carefully prepared by the chef, and the butler recommends and praises them from time to time. It coincides with the New Year and is really needed.

Shen Huaixin was not in a good mood at that time, and he didn't want to bother with some trivial matters, so he naturally left it to his subordinates. He mentioned it a little and the housekeeper knew a butcher, so the people who worked in the camp came to the housekeeper.

Lu Si's pork entered the military camp, and it was a matter of course.

After Lu Si finished speaking, the deputy general asked: "But nothing happened at that time. It has been so long..."

Yan Ruyu glanced at him: "If something happened at that time, wouldn't it be easy for people to suspect him? Once everything is stable, establish a good relationship, and gain everyone's trust before taking action, it will be more convenient and not be suspected."

The lieutenant shut his mouth.

Lu Si sighed: "What the princess said is absolutely true. I was also uneasy at first, but after waiting for a long time, the man in black did not appear again, but medicine packets often appeared under my pillow."

He looked up at Zhao Yan: "I remembered the date, just like the one I just told you, so I was poisoned by the same poison as you."

Lu Si smiled bitterly: "I've been serving it longer than you."

Zhao Yan's face was full of resentment. Hearing this, he couldn't help but froze, snorted coldly and turned away.

"Lu Si," Yan Ruyu said coldly, "it is pitiful that you were poisoned and killed, but this is not the reason for you to poison others. There is no need to suffer miserably. Let's just tell you what you did this time."

Lu Si lowered his eyes and said silently for a moment: "I saw the man in black two days ago. He appeared again, dressed the same as last time. He gave me a pack of medicine and asked me to add it to the soldiers' reservoir. ”

The northwest is very dry and is already short of water. What's more, the winter is cold and the ground is hard. The water freezes and the ground freezes hard. Water shortages are common.

Normally, people prepare water tanks, but the military camp built a water storage tank because of the large number of people.

After Huo Changhe went to Shencheng to guard, he realized that this was inconvenient, so he began to think of ways to lead the soldiers in Shencheng to dig ditches in the spring and summer. Heavy snow covered the mountains and forests in winter, and in the next spring and summer, they would lead the snow water down the mountain into the camp.

This method basically solved the problem of the military camp’s own water supply, and was quickly promoted.

However, Shen Huaixin had always been at odds with Huo Changhe and denied all his advantages. The channel was dug, but only one was dug, which could barely lead to some.

When the deputy general heard this, he was shocked and couldn't help but go over and grab Lu Si by the collar.

"What? Poison the water tank? How fucking dare you, I'll chop you up!"

Lu Si was already weak, but when he grabbed her, he couldn't even speak.

Huo Changhe said: "Let him go."

The deputy general's eyes were red: "Your Majesty! That's a water storage tank!"

"If he really fell into the reservoir, would you be okay now? Then the whole battalion should be sick, not just some of them."

When the deputy general thought about it, it was indeed true.

He let go of his hand and pushed Lu Si back again.

Lu Si coughed a few times, calmed down for a while, and said slowly: "I did not go into the water. I really can't do it."

"So, I brought more than a dozen jars of wine, poured some wine into the wine, and put some on the wine utensils."

"You still have some conscience!" the deputy general scolded.

Lu Si's eyes turned red: "I don't want to be like this, and I'm not... a born bad person. I just have no choice but to be coerced by others. I might as well die myself. The main thing is... what about my family?"

"I really can't bear to let them die with me."

Yan Ruyu asked: "You didn't do as you were asked this time. Did the man in black come to you again?"

"I don't know," Lu Si sniffed, "I'm trapped here and can't get out."

But no, after the situation happened, Lu Si originally wanted to leave, but at the same time, if he left like this, it might make people suspicious, so it was better to wait.

Unexpectedly, the news of the blockade came just now.

Huo Changhe ordered that the inside and outside were sealed tightly so that he could not leave at all.

The poison on my hands also started to take effect. I had no choice but to try to steal the medicinal materials, but I was caught.

Huo Changhe asked: "Lu Si, besides being a butcher, what else do you do for a living?"

"If nothing else, my father and brother are butchers," Lu Si replied.

Huo Changhe didn't ask any more questions and looked at Yan Ruyu.

Yan Ruyu handed him a pill, and Huo Changhe stepped forward and said to Lu Si: "Take it."

Lu Si hesitated for a moment and took it, then swallowed it without asking what it was.

"No matter what the reason was, you poisoned so many people and deserved to die. Please reflect on it here."

After Huo Changhe finished speaking, he ordered the deputy general: "Send someone to guard this place. What he said is confidential and is not allowed to be disclosed."

The lieutenant general nodded. Although he hated it, he really couldn't leak the news. If it spread and let the soldiers know, Lu Sisheng would have to be torn apart, and another disaster would happen.

Yan Ruyu looked at Zhao Yan, and Zhao Yan nodded quickly.

After walking out of the tent, Huo Changhe took Yan Ruyu back to the tent where he was resting.

"You have a good rest and leave the rest to me. Let's talk about the rest after you sleep."

Yan Ruyu is indeed sleepy. The epidemic has been resolved and the murderer has been found. She really has no worries and can have a good sleep.

She didn't show any pretense and lay down and fell asleep.

Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, Huo Changhe took off his cloak and covered her with it. He got up and walked slowly outside the tent.

Yin Ding came over lightly and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"

"Send a letter back to the city to find out the details of Lu Si. He himself is three generations older."

Yin Ding looked a little confused, while Huo Changhe's eyes were stern: "What he said was very clear, logical and coherent."

Yin Ding was even more puzzled: "What does the prince mean..."

"But his legs are slightly bowed, there are calluses on the tiger's mouth of his right hand, and there are also a few calluses on the fingers of his left hand."

Yin Ding's little eyes opened slightly, and her doubts instantly receded: "Your Majesty, are you saying that he is a soldier?"

"It's possible, so you send someone to check, be careful and don't alert the enemy."

"Yes."

The silver ingot left quickly.

Huo Changhe raised his eyes and looked at the horizon. The weather was good today, but the sunshine was still lazy and not warm enough.

Don't worry, the cold will pass.
