Chapter 130: Smart and Confused

Chapter 130

Xiao Muyue paused with her fingers, then withdrew her hand, "Is there something in here?"

"En." The woman lightly retracted her gaze, responded, and continued to make medicine.

Xiao Muyue rubbed her nose in embarrassment, and almost got into trouble again.

"Son."

As soon as Xiao Muyue turned her face, she saw a woman standing beside her, "What's the matter?"

Xiao Muyue recognized this woman, she was the aunt who forcibly pulled Xiao Hua that day.

The aunt sighed: "I just want to ask you, young master, if you know what happened at the cemetery last night?"

Xiao Muyue raised her eyebrows slightly, and glanced at the woman making medicine, "Yes."

The aunt hurriedly asked: "The young master knows why we are in the cemetery, and even dug it—the cemetery."

A dark light flashed in Xiao Muyue's eyes, and she said: "This... I can't tell, anyway, we followed you to the woods last night."

As soon as Xiao Muyue said this, there was a burst of noisy discussion outside the room.

"How could this be?"

"I just remember that I went to bed early."

"yes--"

The aunt's face was panicked, "It's a crime, how could this happen! Could it be that the ancestors really showed their spirits."

"But we followed you all the way to the cemetery yesterday, and we saw another person." Xiao Muyue recalled: "A person wearing a yellow Taoist uniform, I saw him come out, said something, and then you started digging the grave .”

Having said that, the villagers couldn't help but look at each other, yellow Taoist clothes, who would wear yellow Taoist clothes?
"Yellow Taoist uniform, why do I feel so familiar?"

"What yellow Taoist clothes, you forgot, that Zhong Banxian is wearing yellow Taoist clothes! Could it be Zhong Banxian..."

There was a commotion.

Hua Jueqing raised her eyebrows slightly, looking at Xiao Muyue, she didn't expect this girl to be very smart, indeed, if she tried to reason with this group of villagers, she might not be able to talk for three days and three nights, let alone telling them that it was a Gu, and it might cause panic.

The aunt's face turned ugly for a while, she glanced at the woman smashing the medicine, then at Xiao Muyue, doubtfully said: "My lord, is it possible to misread it?"

"Of course not." Xiao Muyue affirmed: "At that time, he was about to do something to the corpse. This girl rushed out to stop him. Later, I saw his face. He looked about 50 or [-] years old, and he looked like this." high!"

All of a sudden, the faces of the villagers changed drastically, and their eyes also changed when they looked at the woman smashing the medicine.

"Is it really Zhong Banxian?"

"But why did Zhong Banxian harm us!"

"It's too much. I said you still don't believe it. That's a liar who cheated on food and drink. What kind of half-immortal has never helped us so far, not even this girl!"

Immediately, there was a burst of harmony, and they also said that they wanted to settle the score with Zhong Banxian.

Obviously, most of Xiao Muyue's words have been believed.

"But if it's Zhong Banxian, why did he want to harm us..." the aunt muttered, still a little bit in disbelief.

Xiao Muyue spread her hands and said, "I don't know about that."

She doesn't know how to calculate, how does she know why the poisonous king wants to harm the people of Pingnan City? Maybe, when Mo Qiancheng catches the poisonous king, she will know!

All in all, right now, I can only talk to the common people first.

In the government office in Pingnan City, because of the sudden arrival of two people, the atmosphere in the government office has become tense to the extreme.

In the hall of the government office.

Mo Qiancheng sat at the head, with the scenery standing beside him, and Hong Shichang, the prefect of Pingnan City, kneeling below.

"My lord, I didn't know my lord was coming, so I neglected my lord, please forgive my sin."

"It's fine to be negligent. Hong Shichang, I still remember when I came to Pingnan City when the king came, and Pingnan City was peaceful and peaceful. Why? After being an official for so long, did you become depraved?"

Mo Qiancheng's serious voice suddenly lowered the atmosphere in the hall and became depressed.

Hong Shichang's back stiffened, "My lord, I have tried my best..."

Mo Qiancheng snorted coldly, "Do your best? Hong Shichang, come and tell me, what kind of effort are you doing?"

Hong Shichang bit the bullet and said: "My lord, after the flood, the officials quickly opened warehouses and ordered people to rush to repair the dams. However, the imperial court allocated too little funds, it is really..."

"Then what happened to the spread of Gu poison in Pingnan City?"

Hong Shichang raised his head suddenly, and said in surprise: "Gu poison? Where did the Gu poison come from?"

With a playful smile on the corner of Jingjing's mouth, he said: "It seems that Lord Hong has not reacted yet. The 'plague' in Pingnan City is not a plague at all, but someone deliberately poisoned it. This kind of poison looks like a plague, but it does not have Contagious... Oh, Lord Hong, you are so smart and foolish for a moment, you actually have the Poison King as your guest, this is a big joke."

"Poison... Poison King."

Hong Shichang's face turned pale, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

Jingjing's face turned cold, and he said, "What are you doubting, maybe the prince can still harm you."

"No, no, no! My lord, I was a fool for a while." Hong Shichang hurriedly prostrated himself on the ground, "My lord, I was a fool for a while. I mistakenly believed that Taoist could cure the people in Pingnan City. I was wronged!"

Seeing this, Jing Jing immediately cupped his hands and said, "My lord, since Lord Hong is momentarily confused, it's better to let him take the blame and make meritorious deeds. Right now, the most important thing is to catch the poison king and save the people."

Hong Shichang prostrated himself on the ground, not daring to vent his breath, the thread in his brain stretched straight.

He didn't even dare to look up at the person in front of him, feeling extremely guilty.

"Hong Shichang."

"The subordinate is here!"

Mo Qiancheng tapped the edge of the table with his fingers, and said, "Do you know where the Poison King is?"

Hong Shichang shook his head hastily, thought for a while, and nodded again, "My lord, Zhong Daxian, no, no, the poison king should be concocting medicine in Dongcheng's mansion at this moment, and I will send someone to get him immediately."

As he spoke, he stood up tremblingly, and was about to exit.

"Stop." The cold voice sounded faintly, and Hong Shichang froze in place in fright, not daring to move.

Mo Qiancheng looked at the scenery, "Lead the way, I will go in person."

Hong Shichang's feet softened, "My lord, this—"

Knowing that Banxian is the Poison King, Hong Shichang has to be scruples, if something happens to Yan King in his Pingnan City, he will not be able to atone for his sin.

Mo Qiancheng said lightly: "Don't worry! I met him last night. If I go now, I'm afraid I won't be in the mansion anymore."

Only then did Hong Shichang breathe a sigh of relief, and he had no doubts about Mo Qiancheng.

Since Mo Qiancheng said so, there is a good chance that he is right. Back then, King Yan's 50 troops repelled Dongshu's [-] troops, relying on strategizing, and he certainly would not risk his life.

Immediately lead the way for Mo Qiancheng in front.

Behind him, Mo Qiancheng and Jingjing also got up immediately and left.

Although they knew that the Poison King was probably gone at this moment, they still had to go there, and they had to be led by the government.

The mansion is surrounded by falling geese poison, if you don't pay attention, you will die, there is no need to take the risk to test it.

A hidden house in the east of the city.

Hong Shichang came here with Mo Qiancheng and the scenery, only to find that the building was empty and the door of the house was easily pushed open.

Because this house is under the name of the yamen, Hong Shichang was familiar with the way, so he took Mo Qiancheng and the scenery to the place called refining medicine.
