Reborn as a rebellious son like a wolf

When Xiao Zhengting came back and heard that a tiger broke into the Huguohou's mansion, his heart suddenly lifted, and he felt relieved when he saw Tang Mo who was safe and sound.

"ink."

"I'm fine." Tang Mo naturally knew what he wanted to ask, pressed his lips and said, "A few episodes, I'm fine."

In the past six months, because of his leg injury, Zheng Ting was really in a hurry, but he was extremely nervous when there was any trouble.

Xiao Zhengting caressed his face, and said dotingly: "You still said that I made a fuss, if there were no Imperial Guards today, the tiger would definitely hurt people."

He also heard that his elder brother was in the garden at that time, but luckily the guards were quick to drag him away.

Tang Mo kissed him on the cheek and said with a smile, "It's all up to you."

"I have asked Wang Qu to send another Imperial Guard over to avoid further incidents."

"Zhengting, this is not good."

"You said the same thing before, and then."

"Ok."

Tang Mo had nothing to say, so he just let him.

At this moment, Steward Shi rushed in: "Your Majesty, master, a cat died in the kitchen."

"There's nothing strange about a dead cat, but there are other things."

With Steward Shi's calmness, he would never be so flustered if only one cat died.

Steward Shi said in a deep voice: "Just now the cook made your noodles and put them aside, and there was an extra bite. At that time, Wang Yuchu's cat was by her side. She was afraid that the kitten would jump on the table and knock over the bowl, so she gave it to you without permission. They ate half a bowl of noodles. They used to be like this, they would give cats and dogs some extra food, who would have thought that the cat would immediately fall to the ground and vomit black blood after eating a few mouthfuls of noodles, the noodles were poisonous."

Xiao Zhengting's eyes suddenly turned cold and startled: "Call Miracle Doctor He to take a look."

"The Marquis of Huguo's mansion is heavily guarded. Neither the imperial cook nor the cook will commit crimes. Has anyone been in the kitchen today?"

Tang Mo knew the up and down procedures of the Huguo Hou like the palm of his hand, and the one who delivered the food couldn't even get through the back door. The only possibility was that an outsider broke in today.

The housekeeper nodded and said: "The cook was terrified. After she calmed down, she remembered that the foreigner who raised the tiger went to the back kitchen today. She was also shocked and scolded him. The cook said that she heard When there was a tiger, she was so frightened that she hid in the firewood room next to the kitchen, and she never left the stove before the soup boiled, so it must have been poisoned by that foreigner."

Tang Mo said: "Let the imperial guards thoroughly investigate the entire Huguohou Mansion, and send people to find out where the foreigner came from."

Xiao Zhengting held Tang Mo's hand, and said softly, "You rest here, I'll go and have a look."

The moment he turned around, Xiao Zhengbing was horrified in his gentle eyes.

Tang Mo got the news in the afternoon that they found the body of the foreigner

In the place where he lived, they only found the medicine bottle on the corpse, and the people who helped carry the cage were hired on a temporary basis and didn't know it at all.

The other party wiped the clues very neatly, and there were no traces to be found at all.

Even so, Xiao Zhengting still found a clue.

"He came from Xijiang?" Tang Mo thought of everything, but never thought of Xijiang, after all, he just came back from there.

Xiao Zhengting handed him a piece of paper and said, "This is the news from the dark guard."

Tang Mo took it and unfolded it. It clearly stated that the foreigner was originally doing business in Western Xinjiang. He sold his shop more than two months ago and came to the capital alone.I didn't bring any tigers with me at all, they were all hunted from a mountain when I came to the capital.

"I'm afraid that the tiger's leg was also broken by him abruptly." Otherwise, the tiger would not be so aggressive.

The foreigners from western Xinjiang, with the nature of General Yu, they have no enmity, so naturally they have nothing to do with him.

Speaking of Xijiang, Tang Mo looked at Xiao Zhengting: "It's someone sent by King Pingjun."

"It's probably him. He regards you as a serious problem now, and he wants to take this opportunity to kill you."

In the beginning, because of his relationship, Prince Ping didn't pay much attention to Mo.

After he reacted, he realized that Mo not only controlled the Northern Wing Army by himself, but also turned Duke Quan into a toothless tiger.

How vigilant he is and how determined he is to want Mo to die, it can be imagined that in order to prevent himself from following in the footsteps of Duke Quan, he will definitely kill Mo by any means.

Tang Mo put the letter on the table, picked up the fruit next to him and gnawed: "I think this is our chance to catch one of his pigtails."

"what for?"

"How about the eyeliner?"

The eyeliner they placed in Pingjun Wangfu will definitely play a role, and the ones who can be sent are all powerful secret guards.

Xiao Zhengting knew what he meant, and said: "There is a secret letter from the eyeliner. The eldest son Murong Cheng has been to the western border, and returned to the Pingjun Palace half a year ago. When he came back, he did not bring any guards."

"Half a year ago, what a coincidence." He was injured and disabled just half a year ago, and the other party also happened to be in Xijiang half a year ago.

The son, the future king of Pingjun, why did he go to Xijiang with such an identity, and he didn't bring any guards with him.

This means that even the guards cannot know what he is going to do.

Or, the guard had been killed long ago, and he went home alone.

Rubbing his fingers lightly, Tang Mo looked at Xiao Zhengting: "I want to see that corpse."

"They carried the body to the Ministry of Criminal Justice. I don't know if they have arrived at the Ministry of Criminal Justice at this time."

"Have someone carry the body outside, I want to see it."

Foreigners are obviously someone else's eyeliner, so there must be other valuable clues that they haven't discovered.

Xiao Zhengting nodded and asked people to quickly go to the place where the foreigners lived.

In less than an hour, Tang Mo was pushed out of the gate of the Hou Mansion. This was the first time he appeared outside the gate since he was injured, but it was to see a dead person.

The corpse was placed in Miracle Doctor He's tent, and Miracle Doctor He was also there.

When Tang Mo entered, he was checking the hands and feet of the corpse, and he even lifted the clothes to see if there was any problem.

"Master Hou is here."

"En." Tang Mo signaled Xiao Zhengting to push him to the corpse, he wanted to check the corpse.

Tang Mo looked at the corpse in front of him. He had blond hair, deep features, and a particularly straight nose. He was indeed not from the Central Plains.

Looking sideways at Miracle Doctor He, Tang Mo said, "Senior, what can you find?"

Divine doctor He came to the chest of the corpse, pressed his chest and said: "I didn't find anything wrong. This man was not very healthy before his death. He had heart disease and other diseases. The reason why he was so tall is completely due to his race." It doesn’t matter, he was not poisoned, nor was he beaten or stabbed, so he died suddenly like this.”

Tang Mo put on his gloves and touched the man's head lightly.

Miracle Doctor He shook his head, and said: "I touched the head, there is no poisonous needle, and I pinched the face, there is no disguise."

All of this seemed flawless, and the killer was really powerful.

Tang Mo gently opened the man's mouth, and found a strange taste in his mouth. . .A drug, he had smelled it before, the juice of a poisonous cactus on a mission in Africa.

Miracle Doctor He saw him staring blankly, and said puzzledly: "But there is something wrong."

"Senior, there is a smell of medicine in his mouth."

"Let me smell it."

Doctor He covered his mouth with a silk handkerchief and approached, and found that there was indeed.

But he didn't think it was medicine: "Instead, it looks like a kind of unpalatable food. These foreigners like to eat messy things."

The diet of foreigners is completely opposite to theirs. They pay attention to the color, fragrance and taste of their meals.

"No." Tang Mo knew he didn't know, and said: "This is a poisonous cactus from a hot country abroad. Its juice is ground out and mixed with food for people with heart disease, and the heart will naturally stop."

The man already had heart disease, and it was normal for him to die suddenly after drinking the poisonous grass juice. .

Doctor He knew that he would not lie to him, and when he heard that it was a poison that he had never seen before, he was instantly excited.

Open the medicine box next to it, take out the tools and start sampling.

"Master Hou has seen this kind of poison?"

"I've seen it." Speaking of this, Tang Mo's eyes were full of nostalgia: "It was a long time ago. That year, I went to a place called Africa. The weather was hot all year round, and there was no trace of cold. The people there were all black charcoal. Yes, there are many infectious diseases, but the strongest grass vegetation in the world grows. We have cacti here, which are not only non-toxic but also edible, while the cacti in some places are not only impossible to eat, but also mixed with poison. This kind of cactus It was very rare. Even at that time, there were hundreds of species of cactus, only this one was poisonous. If my guess is correct, when a foreigner came to do a mission and wanted to kill me, his master would have already been prepared to silence him and send another killer ending."

Xiao Zhengting said: "Look, the juice is fresh. The other party didn't squeeze the juice, but took it to the capital. The purpose is to destroy the evidence faster. After all, no one knows that it is a poisonous juice."

"This kind of cactus juice can't be stored." Tang Mo nodded, looked at Xiao Zhengting, and said, "Immediately send someone to check in the restaurant, who has visited foreigners, and who has he been in contact with. Who brought some strange things to see him .”

There is no such thing as a refrigerator here, and to preserve the toxicity of the cactus, you need the whole plant.

This kind of cactus is not very big, the size of an adult's palm, its appearance is beautiful and dreamy pink, and its flesh is also pink, very beautiful.

Xiao Zhengting said: "Is the cactus different from the cactus in our country?"

"Not bad." Nodding, Tang Mo said, "These cactus are palm-sized, pink and dreamy, very cute. They are very confusing. The most special thing is that they emit a foul smell before they mature, which makes animals feel dizzy. After maturity, It will emit a faint fragrance. At that time, it was a drupe that was not poisonous, and all the toxicity was in the body. The reason for this evolution is to better attract herbivores to eat them. In this way, the seeds can They are excreted along the animal's feces, and when they fall to the ground, they are hidden in the feces and will not be eaten by birds. When the rain comes, they will quickly take root and germinate and grow again."

so amazing!

Although Xiao Zhengting has seen many things, he still feels that the creatures of nature are really great.

He obviously has no life and no brains, but he can evolve a complete breeding system to allow his blood to breed and grow from generation to generation.

Doctor He asked Tang Mo curiously, with a serious expression: "Master Hou, can this thing survive here?"

Such an interesting poison, he wants to keep it, maybe its toxicity will have an effect on his medical skills.

Tang Mo nodded, and said, "Of course it can. It is very thirst-resistant, and it can be fed only by watering it about once every ten days. I don't know if I can find it. I can try if I can find seniors."

The murderer will inevitably destroy the evidence and prevent them from finding any clues.

But he believes that unless he throws it into the cesspit, with their ability, he can definitely get it.
