[Quick Wear] Manual for Saving the Miserable Male Match
Chapter 166 The Farmer’s Young Master’s General Husband (38)
This poison should have been planted a long time ago, but it only took effect now, killing him instantly. It was obvious that someone had done it deliberately.
This was originally a stumbling block set by the third prince to Prince Yan.
As long as the palace maid can successfully lure the drugged Yan Zhi here, things will get better and better, and she will create some chaos and lure the people attending today's banquet here.
Witnessing the dirty scandal between Yan Ji and the concubine in the cold palace, and then the concubine died, there was no evidence to prove her death, so she could be disguised as the prince who was eager to destroy the evidence and killed someone.
One move leads to death without proof. By then, the former soldiers will have seen enough scandals, and even Yan Ji, who has three mouths, will not be able to explain it clearly.
The third prince's move was truly vicious and disgusting.
"Take the body down and investigate carefully. I want to see who dares to play tricks under my nose." Emperor Yan's voice was colder than ever before.
"Yes." The subordinates took the order and dragged the body down. Immediately, palace officials came to clean the blood-stained floor.
Such things happened in the palace, and the ministers were all uneasy. Emperor Yan was still here, and no one dared to leave.
Within a moment, news came.
"Your Majesty, the maid pretending to be a eunuch is dead." The guard knelt in front of Emperor Yan and lowered his head.
"Dead? How did you die?" Emperor Yan laughed angrily, "Did he die of poison again?"
"Your Majesty, he was stabbed through the throat by a hidden arrow." The guard said, "We asked and found out that the palace maid's task was to drug today's guests. When we asked the person behind the scenes again, she was, she was... killed."
"Dose medicine?" All the ministers became panicked, and a few people who were greedy for life and feared death began to pick at their throats, trying to spit out the wine they drank today and the food they ate.
"How unbecoming!" The emperor was furious and swept down the wine glass in front of him. The wine glass fell to the ground with a crackle, and the smell of wine spread everywhere.
"He Cheng." The emperor retracted his arm.
"I'm here!" He Cheng came out and knelt on one knee in front of the emperor.
"I'll leave this matter to you to investigate. You must find out everything clearly and get to the bottom of it!" The emperor looked coldly and turned around to leave.
The third prince's face was hidden in the shadows, and he couldn't see clearly, but veins popped out on the back of his hands.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I must live up to the sacred mandate." He Chen said.
He Chen is the leader of the Jinwu Guard, and he directly obeys the emperor's orders. If he goes to investigate, he will encounter much less apparent resistance, and he has outstanding personal abilities.
Emperor Yan followed the eunuch on one side and the queen on the other side.
"Who is not here today?" Emperor Yan said in a cold tone.
"Back to Your Majesty, I have checked carefully. The only ones not present are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, General Shi, Lord No. 1 Lang Song, and the newly appointed Chariot and Cavalry General Pei Zhi."
"According to the palace maid's wishes, she should have drugged only one of them or a few of them."
When the queen heard that the prince was here, she took a breath and squeezed the silk handkerchief in her hand.
Emperor Yan nodded, "Go and help He Cheng investigate this matter together."
"Yes, Your Majesty," said the great eunuch.
"Your Majesty, do you have anyone in mind?" The queen held a gold and peony silk handkerchief in her hand, and her maid followed far behind.
"Yes." Emperor Yan sneered, "I just don't believe that such a clumsy method came from his hands."
"Since he dares to do such a thing, he will naturally have to bear my anger." Emperor Yan snorted coldly.
The queen nodded. If anyone else were to investigate this matter, given the identity of the person behind the scenes, they would only find a scapegoat.
But He Cheng was different. He took orders directly from Emperor Yan. Not only could he find out the real culprit behind the scenes, but he could also convince the officials.
For daring to give Yan Qi such a dirty drug, the third prince would have to bear the Queen's wrath.
……
At this moment, Aze was wandering at the door of the mansion worriedly. It had been all night. Why hadn't His Royal Highness returned yet? He heard that the others had returned to the mansion long ago.
Aze had been waiting next to the prince, but he was suddenly called out by someone on the way and asked to do a small favor.
Aze had no doubts in his heart. He had finished helping, but when he came back, His Royal Highness was missing.
After asking around, others said that His Royal Highness had gone back long ago.
Aze had no choice but to run back to his house in the rain and ask the gatekeeper. But the waiter said that he had never seen His Highness the Prince come back.
It was almost dawn now, but His Highness the Crown Prince was nowhere to be found. Aze was going crazy with anxiety, and even thought about how to apologize with death.
The two of them didn't sleep for long, but at dawn, Pei Zhi opened his eyes. This was a habit he had developed over the years at the border.
"Woo~" Yan Xi groaned and opened her eyes.
Their eyes met, and the memories of last night flooded into their minds.
Pei Zhiqian couldn't resist it and looked away. A thin layer of red appeared on his wheat-colored skin, and he couldn't speak clearly, "Your Highness, Your Majesty."
Pei Zhi moved his body, and just as he was about to confess, the quilt moved with him.
The quilt on Yan Qi fell off, revealing the red plum blossoms in the snow. It looked like she was not too heavy.
Pei Zhi didn't dare to move for a while. His chest rose and fell very obviously, his face turned red and white, and his neck and ears were red and bleeding. Pei Zhi lowered his head as if he was being burned, and opened his lips slightly, "I, I will be right to you." You’re responsible.”
"Responsible?" His Royal Highness put these two words between his lips and tongue. Pei Zhi's black eyes flashed with helpless embarrassment, and his heart was beating irregularly and at a high frequency.
"I don't need you to take responsibility, it's just a game." His Highness the Crown Prince sneered, "You are really, unexpectedly innocent."
For a moment, Pei Zhi felt that the blood in his body had solidified, his whole body was stiff, and he was speechless for a moment.
But, the reaction of His Highness the Crown Prince last night...it was obvious that he did too! But Pei Zhi didn't dare to say these words, but his eyes were filled with grievances.
In spite of his grievance, he secretly glanced at the gonggong sand on Yan Wei's arm, but it had disappeared.
Pei Zhi didn't say anything, but looked sideways at the pattern on the pillow cover.
Yan Qi was shocked, had she gone too far? After taking a brief look at Pei Zhi, who was aggrieved and licking his wounds alone, Yan Qi fell silent.
Looking at her tearful, aggrieved eyes, with her head tilted to look like a hurt little daughter-in-law, Yan Qi:...
It was obvious that he was the one who suffered last night, but this man looked like he had ruined him.
Yan Qi laughed angrily, "Why, I told you that I don't want you to be responsible anymore, and you still haven't left yet? Do you want to be discovered?"
Pei Zhi stood up and picked up the clothes that had been crumpled into a ball. He could no longer wear them. "The clothes can't be worn anymore."
Yes, Yan Qi had no choice but to point to the wardrobe. There are the clothes I usually wear when I go out of the palace. You can find a set and put it on.
Pei Zhi wanted to move, but there was only one quilt, and he surrounded it, leaving Yan Fei naked on the bed.
The atmosphere became quiet, and the two looked at each other.
Yan Qi took a deep breath and adjusted her mentality, "You can surround me with your clothes first."
This person usually looks cool and shrewd, but why did he become so stupid one night?
"profound."
