After being forced to marry a tyrant: I overturned the original plot

Chapter 96 Suspicious, who has the heart to kill her?

Gu Fei's eyes flashed and he stared at Qin Xin seriously.

"Tell me your basis."

"I ordered Sui Shou to run errands and get food. Generally speaking, there are soldiers guarding outside the courtyard. They change shifts every two hours, and the break is no more than a quarter of an hour."

Qin Xin seemed to be afraid that there were ears on the other side of the wall, so she moved closer, but was afraid of infecting Gu Fei, so she covered her lips tightly with her hands and spoke in a low voice.

"Hogari saw the candlestick that caused the fire in the house...but I was in the house and didn't light it at all--"

Gu Fei frowned deeply. He knew that Qin Xin hated the smell of burning candles. Most importantly,

He just gave her a night-shining pearl, she will definitely take it out to use for lighting!

However, Qin Xin's voice suddenly stopped and her eyes widened, which made Gu Fei confused.

Before he could ask "what's wrong", Qin Xin pulled his sleeve and spoke in a crying voice.

"It's over. My night-shining pearl...I wonder if it's burned out?"

Gu Fei: "..."

He paused, couldn't help but raised his hand and knocked Qin Xin on the forehead.

"It's already this hour, why are you still thinking about this? In your opinion, who is the most suspicious person in this Gao Mansion?"

Not only did he know when the officers and soldiers were on duty, he also found out that Sui Shou had been transferred...

It can only be someone in this house.

Qin Xin raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, thinking for a while.

Shake his head.

"No clue?"

Qin Xin continued to shake his head.

"Everyone in this house likes me so much, why would they want to harm me? I can't think of it."

Qin Xin held the cat in one hand and spread out the other, speaking with an innocent and sincere look on her face.

Gu Fei stomped his feet in anger.

"Qin Xin!"

"To!"

"…Now is not the time to be funny!"

Gu Fei almost knelt down to her. This guy could even tell a crosstalk after escaping death, right?

Qin Xin hurriedly shook his head.

"I'm not kidding."

These people were seriously ill, and she fought the disease with them and watched talent shows with them... How could they want to harm her?

"So what you're saying is—"

"They are not from Shuiyue City. There must be some unclean people in the house."

Qin Xin thought about Yingying who arrived today, and said to Gu Feiru while pondering.

Hearing this, Gu Fei immediately thought of the several suspicious people he found outside the wall.

He narrowed his eyes and was about to say this when Qin Xin suddenly came to his senses and asked him -

"No, why are you not sleeping at night and running to the quarantine area?"

She either covered her mouth when speaking or turned her face away when speaking.

This action is both funny and... strangely thoughtful.

Gu Fei couldn't say, "I've been listening outside the wall for as long as you guys have been playing music and dancing in the quarantine area."

So he just seriously passed over this part and replied: "I saw a suspicious person wandering outside the house, Suifeng went to chase him, but lost him.

I was worried about you guys, so I came in."

Originally, I just wanted to take a look from a distance to confirm that Qin Xin had fallen asleep, but then I heard someone shouting "fire".

He came here in a hurry.

Fortunately, she is fine.

"You can even lose Suifeng? That requires... a lot of skills."

With such skills, he is no ordinary person.

"Are Song De's followers all staying in prison peacefully?"

Qin Xin thought about it, apart from Song De, which other force in this city would be united and run into the poison circle just to burn her to death?

What a hatred and resentment...

"It's not Song De. They are just a mob. They can't even attack the food supply at night. How can they have such good skills?"

"Zhou Feng? Isn't he the governor of Xilin? His followers might be everywhere, so why don't they come here?"

Qin Xin is good at throwing out every paper person she has ever offended.

And Gu Fei was responsible for eliminating it.

"Then why don't you go and assassinate me, the King of Chen?"

Scratching his almost inadequate head, Qin Xin replied hesitantly:

"Because you look hard to kill?"

It was not uncommon for tyrants to be assassinated, but he always escaped unscathed...

In addition, he was in the county government office with so many guards, so it was natural that he would be difficult to kill.

But she...

In the quarantine area, I run around every day, but I don’t like a group of people guarding me.

It was as if there were countless holes, waiting for someone to come in and kill her.

"..."

Gu Fei thought, why don’t you say it? Because you are the backbone of the people in the epidemic area (the god in their hearts), and also his weak spot, so the other party used this trick.

It's like killing two birds with one stone and removing the fuel from the fire.

However, their calculations were not good. Qin Xin was a lucky fool with a long life, making him even harder to kill.

"Leave this to me, and you can focus on recuperating. Take more people with you recently, and try not to go out."

Qin Xin blinked, and the cat in her arms called out in a cute voice.

She came to her senses.

"Uh, okay."

They were whispering to each other for a long time, while Suifeng was about to stand like a stone statue over there.

Sui Shou lowered his head, feeling very remorseful and annoyed.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty——"

"Your sins are forgiven first, so make amends for them."

Upon hearing this fearless opening, Qin Xin raised his hand, interrupted the subsequent words of "asking for surrender", and spoke directly.

Sui Shou was startled: "How to make up for it..."

His crime is so serious that he deserves to be beheaded.

Your Majesty is still here, and no matter what you say, this is something that cannot be forgiven.

Qin Xin made the final decision: "Find out the culprit hiding in this house. If you can't find it, you'll be beaten."

She added: "His Majesty wants to chop off your head, but I can vouch for you, Sui Shou, you have to work hard."

Gu Fei, who was inexplicably blamed again: "..."

For a moment, I couldn't tell whether she was trying to solidify his image as a tyrant or to step on him and buy off his inner guards.

Keeping silent is his greatest cooperation.

"Thank you for not killing me! I will investigate thoroughly and find the real culprit, and let you punish me!"

Sui Shou must have a sincere heart, and he was extremely moved at this moment.

Suifeng gave him a sympathetic look.

"Arrange another room for the queen, and don't let this matter spread to others, so as not to cause unnecessary panic."

Gu Fei ordered coldly, then looked at Qin Xin again, signaling her to stay at home and recuperate and not run out.

Qin Xin nodded, so obedient that it seemed...unreal.

Gu Fei left.

The officers and soldiers and the hunting came to an end.

Qin Xin waited until the burning house stopped emitting smoke and was completely safe before she walked around.

Trying to find some clues.

She remembered that the window was open before she went out, but now it was closed...

Oh, her bed curtains were drawn down, and the quilt inside was crumpled because she didn't like to fold it.

Therefore, the other party must have thrown the candlestick out of the window, and didn't want her to escape, so he locked the doors and windows.

But he was not careful enough and was a little timid, so he set the fire without entering the house to check whether she was there.

He must be someone with no special skills? Otherwise, wouldn't it be easy for him to jump in from the window and sneak in to assassinate?

Qin Xin stood outside the window for a while, and then saw something crystal clear in the burnt grass.

She squatted down, reached out and picked it up.

"My lady, your medicine has been boiled again."

Hearing footsteps behind him, Qin Xin immediately put the things into his sleeve, turned around, and looked at the person coming calmly.

It was the female doctor who brought her medicine.
