After interrogating Fu Zixian, Huo Wuyou had an idea in his mind.

He took out a black pill from somewhere and handed it to Yan Gui beside him.

Yan Gui didn't understand why, but he still followed Huo Wuyou's instructions and forced the liquid into Fu Zixian's mouth.

Fu Zixian was frightened by the strange smell and tried to vomit it out: "What did you give me to eat!?"

Huo Wuyou chuckled and said calmly, "It's just a deadly poison. If there's no antidote, your intestines will be ruptured within a few days."

Fu Zixian's face turned pale, and he was stunned for a moment. He roared: "I confessed everything, why do you still want to kill me?! It was the Chai family who paid me a lot of money to sell grain, so I thought of taking the risk to do this business. Almost all the grain was given to the Chai family. I only kept some for private sales. If anyone dies, it will be the Chai family who dies before me! Why poison me?!"

After that, he suddenly had an idea: "I know, you are all Prince Cheng's men, you teamed up with the Chai family to harm me, and now you want to harm me and His Highness! Good on you, Tang Jinglei, you are looking for death!"

Fu Zixian had already said all the useful words he wanted to say, and what followed were some vulgar and dirty words to vent his anger. Huo Wuyou gave Yan Gui a look, and Yan Gui knocked the chattering Fu Zixian unconscious with a knife.

On the way back to the Tang Mansion, Yan Gui was a little worried: "My Lord, will this really be okay?"

But Huo Wuyou closed his eyes and rested in the carriage without even lifting his eyelids: "It's just a lump of mud, it's enough to scare him."

……

Tang Mansion.

After returning to the room, Xue Zhiyi was exhausted. She wanted to lean on the couch to rest for a while, but fell asleep in a daze.

When I woke up again, it was already bright daylight.

When I opened my eyes, I saw a person leaning against the window, looking very leisurely.

Even though she was used to Huo Wuyou's visits, she still couldn't stand him visiting without saying a word.

She propped herself up and sat up. Since she had just woken up, there was still resentment in her eyes. She stared at Huo Wuyou.

Seeing that she was awake, Huo Wuyou shamelessly walked forward, leaned against the bed frame and said, "Are you awake? Did you miss me after not seeing me for a whole night?"

Xue Zhiyi was glad that he was just taking a nap and did not take off his clothes, so he could still be seen neatly by him.

"I didn't have time to think about anything last night, unlike the Marquis of Lin'an who has so much free time."

"How heartless." He said shamelessly: "I was also busy last night, but I missed you many times."

Xue Zhiyi didn't want to chat with him, so he only asked him about the most important things: "Thank you for your hard work, Marquis Lin'an, but I wonder if you found out who was behind the ancient road last night?"

After Huo Wuyou told the truth, Xue Zhiyi was shocked when she learned the result. She could not sit still anymore and stood up and paced back and forth: "I understand. In other words, it was the Chai family who took advantage of Xue Ruoyu's weakness after giving birth and poisoned her. Only Doctor Zheng's expensive prescription could cure it. They forced Tang Jinglei to accept bribes and participate in the ancient road incident, and used a large sum of money as bait to involve the Fu family. If this matter is finally exposed, Gu Shichong's two important followers can be eliminated at once. After all this fuss, it turns out that Tang Lin's brother-in-law, Lord Chai Xun, the prefect of Jiangzhou, is a member of the King Cheng Party."

"Xue Ruoyu was poisoned?" Huo Wuyou was a little surprised: "From what Tang Jinglei said, he doesn't seem to know about this yet."

Hearing this, Xue Zhiyi's expression turned cold, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Huo Wuyou was also a little more ambiguous: "Marquis Lin'an, there is one thing we may have guessed wrong."

Seeing this, Huo Wuyou also became serious. He stood up straight and walked to a position close to Xue Zhiyi. Xue Zhiyi supported his shoulders, stood on tiptoes, and whispered in his ear: "Perhaps, the person who really harmed General Huo was not the Prince Gong Party."

Xue Zhiyi clearly felt Huo Wuyou's body stiffen, and after a moment, he seemed to regain his breath: "What... did you say?"

Retracting the breath that fell on his ear, Xue Zhiyi looked into his eyes, her voice still soft enough for only the two of them to hear clearly, she said seriously and solemnly: "The poison in Xue Ruoyu's body was done by the Chai family. I am 90% sure of this. And the poison, after Sui Yunlang's investigation, was the same poison that was used to harm the empress dowager."

Huo Wuyou's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he narrowed his eyes slightly: "The person who poisoned my grandmother was Zhao Xu, and the person who colluded with the enemy to harm my father and brother was also him. And now we suddenly find out that Zhao Xu is actually King Cheng's man?"

After saying this, he even found it a little funny and laughed at a very inappropriate time.

Xue Zhiyi thought of her past life. She now understood a problem that she had never been able to figure out in her past life.

In his previous life, Huo Wuyou collected evidence and sued someone in the court for collaborating with the enemy and killing Huo's father and son, but the evidence inexplicably pointed to Shen Chiyan.

Perhaps, at that time, Huo Wuyou did find evidence of Zhao Xu's guilt, and he always regarded Zhao Xu as Gu Shichong's man. However, he was powerless, so for the sake of checks and balances, he chose to cooperate with King Cheng.

Prince Cheng would never point a sharp knife at his own people, so he tampered with the evidence so that it pointed to Shen Chiyan, who was following Prince Gong at the time. This not only made Shen Chiyan a scapegoat for Zhao Xu, but also eliminated one of Gu Shichong's wings.

So that's how it is... Whether in the past or this life, Huo Wuyou has never harmed the Shen family for any purpose.

This discovery made Xue Zhiyi's eyes mist with excitement.

Her voice was still gentle: "It doesn't matter. It's not too late to know now. Anyway, I have always wanted Gu Shichong to die, and now, there is only one more Gu Shimin."

She originally thought that in her previous life, it was the Xue couple who pushed her into the abyss time and time again, and it was Gu Shichong who used her to defeat King Cheng and then stabbed her in the back. These two were the culprits who harmed her the most and benefited the most from her.

Reason told her that even though she said that she fell into prostitution because of Prince Cheng's frame-up of the Xue family, she should suppress her hatred in this life and use Prince Cheng to deal with Gu Shichong first.

But now, she finally found a reason to abandon her reason.

The surging hatred was evident in her eyes. Her eyes were slightly red, and she smiled. There was some bewitching in her voice: "Huo Wuyou, let's kill them all together, okay?"

Her eyes were filled with excitement and a chilling fear, but Huo Wuyou couldn't help but get closer.

There seemed to be something entangled between their eyebrows, which gradually brought the two closer.

"Okay." he responded.

When their foreheads touched, his eyes turned red and he said, "Kill me if you want."

Xue Zhiyi likes Huo Wuyou the most like this. His strong murderous aura seems to ignite into a raging fire with her, which has an incomparable attraction to her.

Especially, he is a young man who is so bright and casual on weekdays.

His breath also seemed to be extremely burning and hot... This made Xue Zhiyi want to take advantage of him.

She only felt Huo Wuyou's eyes lightly closed, and his lips gradually moved closer...
