Feng Jiuqing leaned on Mo Ling and felt fearless: "Then how do you want to punish Qingqing, A Yan? Qingqing is afraid of pain, so the punishment must be light."

Mo Ling poked Feng Jiuqing's face with a smile: "As a punishment, you are not allowed to eat candied fruit today."

Feng Jiuqing looked at Mo Ling in disbelief: "Ayan is so cruel, he actually doesn't allow Qingqing to eat candied fruit, is he trying to make Qingqing suffer to death?"

Mo Ling narrowed his eyes, took a deep breath and said, "You're talking nonsense again! You're still greedy even though you have a toothache? All the candied fruits for this month will be confiscated."

Feng Jiuqing had a bitter face and acted like a spoiled child, "No, Yan, Qingqing needs to take medicine, please don't confiscate Qingqing's candied fruit, the medicine is very bitter."

"No." Mo Ling refused without mercy.

"You are cold-hearted and unreasonable!" Feng Jiuqing poked Mo Ling in the heart.

Mo Ling was so angry that he almost laughed. This was all because of that little bastard who actually dared to say that he was cold and heartless.

Mo Ling said grimly, "There's no more preserves for next month."

Feng Jiuqing was about to cry. The medicine was so bitter, even more bitter than life. How could Mo Ling not let him eat candied fruit? At this moment, Feng Jiuqing had completely forgotten that he was once the Marshal of the Youyun Army who ate medicine as food in the North Territory without frowning.

"No, Yan, it will make Qingqing suffer. You really can't do that."

Mo Ling was heartless: "Don't mention the word death, it's unlucky. Besides, there will be no candied fruit next month."

"How could A Yan be so cruel to Qing Qing? Does he no longer love Qing Qing? I knew that he would get tired of her after a long time. Qing Qing is just too stupid, um——"

Mo Ling directly blocked the mouth of someone who was chattering nonstop, and did not let go until the person was out of breath.

"No nonsense!"

Feng Jiuqing glanced at Mo Ling and pouted, "You dare to do it and don't allow others to say anything. You have no human rights at all."

Mo Ling poked someone's pouting lips and said, "Qingqing, if you keep talking nonsense, I can't guarantee that I will do anything."

Feng Jiuqing was very unconvinced, but was afraid that Mo Ling would do something, so he could only whisper, "Hegemonism."

"What did you say, huh?"

Mo Ling's eyes were somewhat dangerous. Feng Jiuqing shut his mouth wisely, but complained to the system in his heart: "Master, why is Yan'er like this! Why didn't I realize he was this kind of person before?"

The system squatted on the table and said coldly: "Is it possible that it is because someone has too thick a filter on Mo Ling?"

Feng Jiuqing was a little embarrassed for once: "That's because I was seduced by beauty. As the saying goes, food and sex are human nature."

The system shook its head and did not expose anyone. It only said in its heart: But the person being eaten seems to be someone who has no self-awareness.

Feng Jiuqing lowered his eyes and said, "How dare Qingqing say anything."

Mo Ling smiled and shook his head, "Are you feeling wronged, Qingqing?"

"Don't dare."

Mo Ling kissed someone on the face and said, "Okay, I won't deduct your candied fruit for next month."

Feng Jiuqing accompanied Mo Ling in Xuanshi Hall for the whole afternoon, and was finally carried back to Qianyuan Hall by Mo Ling.

There were spies monitoring him everywhere in Qianyuan Hall, so Feng Jiuqing went to Xuanshi Hall more diligently so that he could pass on messages along the way. Today, he happened to receive a message from Canglang.

Canglang said that they had found Wen Chu, but when they found Wen Chu, Wen Chu was already seriously injured and unconscious, but fortunately his life was not in danger. Mo Ling happened to send Jiazi to find Wen Ruo, so he handed Wen Ruo over to Jiazi. According to the time, they should have arrived in the capital by now.

Feng Jiuqing finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Wen Ruo was fine.

It has not yet been discovered where the relief grain was looted, but Canglang has already found out what happened at Xiao Qizi's home.

When Xiao Qizi was young, her family was poor and had no choice but to sell her to the palace. Later, Xiao Qizi's mother gave birth to a daughter, who was Xiao Qizi's younger sister. Because Xiao Qizi occasionally sent some money back home, Xiao Qizi's family gradually became better.

Xiao Qizi's sister was engaged to a simple and honest man from the same village. But this year, due to the earthquake in Jiangning, Mo Ling ordered to speed up the collection of summer taxes. Who knew that those who collected taxes actually took advantage of this to make money, especially Xiao Qizi's family was forcibly charged 200 taels of summer tax.

The family didn't have much spare money, and they had to prepare a dowry for their daughter, so they couldn't afford two hundred taels. So Xiao Qizi's father was framed by someone and borrowed two hundred taels from the casino. The interest in the casino compounded, and within a few days it had grown to one thousand taels. Xiao Qizi's family couldn't pay it back, so his sister was forcibly sold to a brothel to pay off the debt, and the news of her death spread the next day.

Xiao Qizi's mother was so angry that she died after hearing the news. Xiao Qizi's father also had his legs broken by the casino staff and became mute.

Feng Jiuqing clenched the hand holding the letter tightly. How could such a thing happen in the capital city, under the feet of the emperor!

Feng Jiuqing knew very well how strict the inspections were in the palace. Xiao Qizi was just a little eunuch. How did she manage to evade the layers of inspections and bring the dagger in? She must have had someone's help.

The person behind the scenes killed Xiao Qizi's family and used Xiao Qizi to kill the king. He really took advantage of her until her death.

These people are in high positions and have great power, so the lives of small people are not lives in their eyes, but just chess pieces to be used at will. But they are real people! Feng Jiuqing couldn't help but think of the time when he gave Xiao Qizi the silver, Xiao Qizi smiled so happily, and the light in his eyes when he said he wanted to be the manager of the imperial kitchen.

Who could have thought that in less than a month, everything would change?

But Xiao Qizi was just a little eunuch, he didn't know martial arts, and he didn't have any other outstanding qualities. Why did the person behind the scenes set up this trap? It couldn't be to scare Mo Ling, right? Even if he wasn't there at the time, Xiao Qizi couldn't kill Mo Ling.

"It's poison, Ajiu." The system suddenly appeared in front of Feng Jiuqing and said softly.

"poison?"

"Yes, that kind of poison is colorless and tasteless. There is no reaction at all after being poisoned, and it cannot be detected. It will slowly show up after a month, making people drowsy and eventually die in their sleep. But this poison has no effect on you."

Poisoning, it's really vicious, do they really want Mo Ling to die? It seems that the identity of the person behind the scenes can basically be determined. Whoever will benefit the most from Mo Ling's death is probably the person behind the scenes.

"Tongzi, can this poison be cured?"

"It's not that troublesome. There are detoxification pills in the mall, 999 points each." The system said seriously.

Feng Jiuqing: ...

So the person behind the scenes is trying to cheat him out of points, right?

Who on earth is so vicious to actually touch his points?

What can be tolerated by scholars?

If Yan'er was poisoned, he would definitely have to change the antidote. What's the difference between this and directly robbing his points!

This is too much!

By the way, Yan'er, Feng Jiuqing lowered his eyes and went to see Yan'er. He should try every possible way to remind him indirectly to be careful not to get poisoned.

Thinking of this, Feng Jiuqing went to the imperial kitchen to make a cold drink. After it was done, he spent 1 point to let the system check whether it was poisonous. He was relieved after getting a positive answer from the system. There was nothing he could do as he was scared by the fact that Yan'er was almost poisoned.
