Chapter 1440: It Turned Out To Be Him

rtainly won't let them off easily."A-Fu looked down at Dong'er, "Dong'er, I remember my big girl once saved you, and now she has saved you again. Two lives added together should be worth a lot of mone...Zhi'er didn't know that she had already been discovered by Hua Duo'er. The reason she left in a hurry was to chase after someone.

As she neared the bed, she distinctly heard a noise outside the room.

So he chased after it without hesitation.

As expected, as soon as she stepped out, she saw a dark shadow jumping over the wall and leaving. Curiosity got the better of her, prompting her to chase after it, ignoring the matter of what kind of flower the noble consort was.

Soon, Zhi'er recognized who the shadow belonged to.

At least she had spent so many years in the palace, by the emperor's side.

So when he saw this man's face clearly, he recognized him as the commander of the Imperial Guard.

Chi'er narrowed her eyes slightly, "So it's him!"

What time is it now How could this person appear in the inner palace

Why did he go to that place dressed like that Was he trying to sneak in and find something

And in her memory, wasn't this Imperial Forest Army Commander the Emperor's person

But looking at him like this... he seems to be hiding some kind of secret.

As far as she knew, this man had saved the emperor's life, so the emperor was also extremely trusting of him. If he had any ulterior motives toward the emperor, he would probably be more likely to poison him than anyone else.

At that moment, Chi'er became interested in this person.

He would secretly watch him for about half an hour.

But after this man searched several places in the palace, he disappeared. Chi'er followed him all the way back to his own mansion.

After he went back, he didn't do anything, so Chier had to withdraw first.

Back at the temporary courtyard in Beijing, she thought Ming Deng might have already rested, but unexpectedly, Ming Deng was practicing martial arts in the yard.

Seeing her return, Ming Deng stopped, throwing the sword in his hand to a subordinate beside him, and walked towards Zhi'er. "Have you seen her"

She didn't need to name names, and Zhi'er could tell who she was talking about.

She shook her head slightly. "No, I'm even more suspicious of the other person now."

"Who"

"The leader of the Imperial Guard, he has secrets, perhaps he is the one who poisoned them. This matter should be put on hold for now, the next steps need to be carefully considered."

Ming Deng had never cared about matters in the palace, so he nodded slightly at this. "Alright, we can find out who bought Zi Teng Huan Du in recent years by tomorrow."

This novel was first published on: Tadu Novels

Members of the Xiezhu clan from the Western Regions, when purchasing poisons on the black market, typically find ways to uncover the buyer's identity and keep a record of it.

However, those record books are not in Beijing. Ming Deng has already sent someone to retrieve them, and they should be back tomorrow.

Then you might be able to find some clues.

Chi'er hummed in response. She glanced at the sky. "It's getting late, everyone should get some rest. I'm going to bed too."

After saying that, she didn't give Ming Deng a chance to respond and turned back to her room.

Ming Deng looked at her retreating figure thoughtfully, and he could vaguely guess the reason for her low spirits.

She didn't go to see that favored concubine, I'm afraid it wasn't just because she had a more suspicious person in mind. It was also because she feared that seeing other women favored by him would cause her to lose control and act rashly.

Indeed, emotions can lower one's intelligence and completely change a good person's personality.

Seeing Zhi'er close the door, Ming Deng's bright eyes dimmed, and then he turned around and returned to his room.

The next day, the people from Ming Deng took back the record book all night. After breakfast, he and Zhi'er looked at the list above.

Few people purchased the purple wisteria phantom poison, but the list in this record book contains no women.

And what's even more curious, the list actually included someone from the Imperial Guard. Upon further investigation, it turned out to be an underling of the Imperial Guard Commander himself.

Although the Imperial Guards didn't buy the Purple Vine Phantom Poison, the fact that they could procure poison from the Western Regions Evil Clan indicates that they had heard of them and knew their poisons were unique and difficult to counter.

Through this incident, Zhi'er increasingly felt that the most likely person to have poisoned the emperor was the commander of the Imperial Guard.

The others on the list, Ming Deng sent people to check them out, and there wasn't much to suspect.

"This time, Zhi'er remained silent for a moment before saying, 'Keep an eye on him.'"

The Ming Deng nodded slightly, "Yes."

At this moment, Zhi'er reached out towards the lamp and said, "The antidote."

Since the poison that the emperor has been confirmed with is known, and we can't determine how much of the Zi Teng Huan Du he ingested, there's only one way: administer the antidote multiple times, little by little, until all the toxins are completely purged from his system.

This book is first published on Tada Read Novels - free of ads, and you can interact with fellow readers.

Ming Deng hesitated for a moment, though unwilling, he still handed the antidote to Zhi'er.

He didn't want Chi-er to focus all her energy again on a trivial man, but there was nothing he could do about Chi-er being headstrong.

He knows that man is nothing, but he just has to rush in again and again like a moth to a flame. You can't stop him.

Knowing the outcome, he was truly too lazy to say any more nonsense. Now, after handing her the antidote, he spoke in a low voice and reminded her:

"Does Master still remember why we are here, in the capital city of this Tianba Kingdom"

Zhi'er's face immediately sank. "I know, rest assured, I will do what needs to be done, and we will definitely get what we want."

They wanted revenge, to avenge their clan. All they needed was the "secret weapon" in the hands of the Northern Border Princess.

I originally thought I could use that little brat, Mo Junyi, but who knew even if she and Ming Deng personally took action, they still couldn't catch him.

Now we'll have to think of something else.

But it doesn't matter, she still has pawns in hand, already successfully placed beside the Northern Border Princess, and obtaining the 'secret weapon' is only a matter of time.

After she finished speaking, Zhi'er got up and left. Ming Deng could only sigh in helplessness.

......

And at this time, An Xuetang also received a letter from Huaduoer. In the letter, Huaduoer mentioned what happened last night.

She didn't know who the man was or who he was targeting, but the fact that he could move freely through the palace with his light kung fu skills meant he was quite capable.

She wrote to remind An Xue Tang to be more vigilant in the near future.

After burning the letter, An Xue Tang looked at Ning'er, "According to your previous investigation, are there any other women in the palace who are skilled in martial arts besides Duo'er"

Ning'er and Shour looked at each other, both shaking their heads. Ning'er explained:

"No, but the maids in the palace hide things quite well. If a martial artist were to live among them, we wouldn't be able to tell."

That's right, Ning'er makes a good point.

An Xuetang also realized this, she thought about it for a moment, and suddenly remembered the traitor in the mansion. It was very possible that the person who sneaked into Zhi'er's bedroom last night and the traitor in the mansion were from the same group.

Someone in the mansion might have revealed that Huaduoer belongs to someone else. If this is true, Huaduoer will be in danger.

An Xuetang's face darkened, and she suddenly stood up, "Where is Shuangshuang"
