Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 323

Chapter 323 Lure a Snake Out of a Hole
“What?”

After hearing Qing Mo’s words, the one who reacted the fastest was Zhou Jingrui, who was sitting on the main seat.

Zhou Jingrui strode to Feng Yan’s side and squatted down. He carefully stretched out his hand to test Feng Yan’s breath. There was still a shallow look of expectation in his eyes. However, when his hand touched Feng Yan’s breath, that expectation suddenly disappeared.

Zhou Jingrui’s eyebrows were filled with unconcealable anger, “Didn’t you say that the horse was still alive? Why didn’t it have a breath?”

He looked at Qing Mo without blinking his sharp eyes, his gaze filled with unconcealable threats.

However, Qing Mo did not place any of his thoughts on Zhou Jingrui. He only looked at him calmly and withdrew his eyes.

Yun Xiao and Qing Mo had also been together for a while, so they naturally knew that Qing Mo would not joke around with such words. Moreover, Yun Xiao could not imagine Qing Mo joking around. In this way, it was really as Qing Mo had said. Feng Yan seemed to be dead, but in reality, he was not.

Knowing this, Yun Xiao heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. She sized up Feng Yan and said loudly, “Qing Mo, what exactly happened? Tell me about it properly.”

Qing Mo respectfully nodded at Yun Xiao. Only then did he say, “There is not a single wound on the Wind Flame Horse, His eyes darkened, and he saw that there was still fine foam on his mouth. There was no breath at all. It was indeed a sign of death from poisoning. However, when this servant placed her hand on the Wind Flame Horse’s heart, she felt an extremely weak beat. If this servant’s guess was correct, someone should have fed a medicine to Feng Yama to make him fake death. ”

“Fake death?” A trace of doubt appeared in Yun Xiao’s eyes. How many people knew about the influence of the Wind Flame Horse on His Highness the Seventh Prince? To think that he would use such a large sum of money to feed Feng Yan such a difficult-to-find medicine.

Ordinary fake death medicines were obtained peacefully. In addition, there was a rare medicinal ingredient within, so this kind of medicine was simply not available on the market.

Since he could give the fake death medicine to a horse, it seemed that this person’s hand was really extraordinary!

Qing Mo nodded calmly and said respectfully, “Yes, fake death. However, when this servant inspected it just now, she also discovered that this fake death medicine is not the same. Normally, a fake death medicine can only be used after taking the antidote for at least three days. However, this medicine can only be used for one day. If there is no antidote within one day, then there is only one way to die.”

Originally, Zhou Jingrui did not look at Qing Mo in his eyes, but when he remembered that Qing Mo, who he met in the street the day before yesterday, was actually able to knock Feng Ya down, he became even more cautious.

According to what Qing Mo said, he carefully placed his hand on the Wind Flame Horse. Just as Zhou Jingrui was about to give up, he finally felt a faint beating. Immediately, an unconcealable joy surged in his heart.

However, he just happened to hear that Feng Yan could only live for one day. Even if he held his heart tightly, “Do you have a way to save Feng Yan?”

However, Yun Xiao looked at him with a smile that was not a smile. There was a hint of mockery in her expression, and her gaze was faint and calm. “Does His Highness the Seventh Prince mean to believe us? Is it the poison of our Yun Manor?”

Zhou Jingrui’s expression suddenly froze. The corner of his mouth revealed a hint of embarrassment, but he did not refuse at all. He said loudly, “Although Feng Yan is not dead, the Yun Clan has not escaped. If Fourth Young Lady helps me find the murderer, I will definitely thank you!”

When Yun Xiao listened to his words, she sneered, “Your Highness the Seventh Prince is serious. I am just a person from the back residence. How can I find the murderer? Furthermore, the matter of Feng Yan is still unsettled. If one of them is not settled, I’m afraid that it will bring us a life-threatening disaster.”

Zhou Jingrui’s gaze was filled with unconcealable hope as he said, “What do you want? Since you can tell that Fourth Young Lady’s people are not dead and have been drugged, they must be able to save Feng Yan.”

However, before Yun Xiao spoke, Qing Mo said loudly, “Your Highness, this servant can only see that Feng Yan was poisoned, but I don’t know who was poisoned with the fake death medicine and how to detoxify it.”

Yun Xiao’s eyes carried a hint of praise, and then she said, “Your Highness the Seventh Prince also heard it. It is not that we are unwilling to do it, but that we cannot do it. If Your Highness the Seventh Prince really wants to know who the murderer is and how to obtain the antidote, I have an idea.”

“What idea?” Zhou Jingrui originally thought that Feng Yan would undoubtedly die, but who would have thought that he would actually be so brilliant that he couldn’t help but ask.

Yun Xiao stared at Zhou Jingrui and said loudly, “Draw the snake out of the cave!”

Zhou Jingrui’s eyes suddenly lit up. There was a faint hope in his eyes, as well as a faint suspicion. “If I can’t draw out a snake, then wouldn’t my wind flame still die?”

Yun Xiao couldn’t help but sigh. In her previous life, everyone had passed down the Seventh Prince as a god-like existence. But now, the Seventh Prince was only interested in that horse. However, Yun Xiao was curious about what kind of story a horse had that Zhou Jingrui had such a fancy for.

“Don’t worry, if I can’t lure out a snake within today, I will definitely return a good Wind Flame to His Highness the Seventh Prince!” Yun Xiao’s expression was calm, and her words did not contain any vagueness. “Before that, I would like to ask His Highness the Seventh Prince to accompany me in a play.”

Seeing Yun Xiao say this, Zhou Jingrui also had a faint expression in his heart. “Good, it’s a deal!”

He wasn’t afraid that Yun Xiao would lie. The Yun Clan’s large fortune and Yun Clan were both in the capital, so he wasn’t afraid that Yun Xiao would run away. In addition, even if the Yun Clan wanted to escape, it was impossible!

“Someone, please let His Highness the seventh prince go down and rest for a moment!” Seeing that Zhou Jingrui agreed, Yun Xiao said loudly to the servants on the side.

Seeing this, Zhou Jingrui did not hold back. Butler Li also brought people to carry Feng Yan down, so he followed suit.

As soon as Zhou Jingrui left, Yun Maozhe and Madam Lu immediately rushed over and worriedly said, “Xiaoxiao, what exactly is going on?”

Yun Xiao forcefully sat down on the side. After last night’s poison attack and last night’s incident, Yun Xiao’s physical strength was unable to keep up. When she confronted the Seventh Prince, she seemed to have exhausted all of her strength.

Cao Bingrong saw that this place was filled with people from the Yun Clan. Even if he stayed, nothing would happen. Besides, he was accompanying the Seventh Prince on this trip.

Cao Bingrong walked forward and bowed respectfully to Yun Xiao. “Manager, since the manager has taken over this incident, I will take my leave. In addition, I have also sent people to bring along the books for the past few days. Please flip through them as soon as possible.”

Yun Xiao couldn’t react for a moment. Seeing that Cao Bingrong was about to leave, she immediately shouted, “Wait!”

Cao Bingrong immediately turned around and said, “Do you have any orders from the manager?”

“Take back those ledgers. I’ll leave all of Imperial Kitchen’s matters to you. Besides, this matter has something to do with Imperial Kitchen. You should stay here first. After today’s matter is over, you can return to the palace.” Yun Xiao was still thinking about how to meet Cao Bingrong without entering the palace. Bring him back to his master. Who would have thought that Cao Bingrong would send him to his door before she could move?

Since that was the case, how could Yun Xiao be willing to let go of this opportunity?

When Cao Bingrong heard Yun Xiao’s words, he felt that it made sense and respectfully said, “Yes.”

However, what made Cao Bingrong curious was that Yun Xiao trusted him a little too much. Why?

However, Yun Xiao would not explain it to him, so she had someone bring Cao Bingrong down first.

After the unrelated people in the room left, Yun Xiao looked at Yun Maozhe and Madam Lu apologetically, “Mom and Dad, I didn’t expect that this matter would still cause trouble for you.”

“Where did Xiaoxiao say this? However, what exactly happened today?” Yun Maozhe was still a little confused about the situation.

Yun Xiaoqing said a few words and Yun Maozhe sent her emotions. Then, she asked Qing Mo to send a letter to Rong Jin and ask him for help.

If it was related to poison, Rong Jin would definitely be able to help. Moreover, only Rong Jin could cure the poison that Qing Mo had previously poisoned Feng Yan’s body.

Thinking about what happened last night, only a short while later, he turned to Rong Jin for help again. Thinking about this, Yun Xiao’s expression became slightly ugly.

After Qing Mo left, the flying pigeon passed a letter to Rong Jin and told him everything that had happened in Yun Mansion.

With a thought, Yun Xiao asked Chun Lan to go to Liu Chan’s residence outside the city and invite her to come to the mansion.

At the same time, the people of the capital also focused their gazes on Yun Clan. Nuo Da Yun Clan had never expected that he would offend His Highness the Seventh Prince. It was really strange to say this. In addition, the Seventh Prince had brought people to Yun Mansion early in the morning, and his appearance of questioning him attracted the attention of many people.

Outside Yun Mansion, Quite a few people quietly looked at Yun Clan. His gaze carried a trace of inquiry. He saw a figure quickly running backwards. Not long after, he entered a restaurant. In the private room of the restaurant sat a gentle and elegant woman. She wore a cherry blossom powder long skirt and rotated a cup of tea in her hand. The tea cup was filled with water, but not a single drop fell. Just this calm energy was respectful.

The woman combed her hair in a simple bun. After listening to the servant’s words, she threw him a silver ingot. “Alright, I know. You can go down.”

However, what made her curious was why Yun Xiao would send people out of the city?

As well as the Yun Clan, they were actually unable to send out the slightest bit of news. Why was this?

Her beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly. Her beautiful face carried traces of worry. Her slender, plain hands turned the cup for a moment before she gently placed it down. Finally, she snapped her fingers and saw that there was already a black-clothed man in the room.

The woman did not show the slightest sign of fear, and her entire body seemed to be covered in a layer of light.

He looked at the black-clothed man first, and then a hint of mockery appeared at the corner of his mouth. However, the mockery was too faint. “The plan goes on.”

The black-clothed man’s voice was cold and deep, but he didn’t have the slightest bit of emotion. “My master said that since we have already done what the girl said, please give the prescription for the antidote to my master,” the black-clothed man said coldly.

‘”Wait a moment, it’s not time for the prescription to be given to your master. You can go back first. When the time comes, I will naturally give the prescription to your master.”

Sure enough, the people he cultivated were more loyal, so how could he use someone else’s people?

When the black-clothed man saw this, his face became somewhat unhappy. He looked at the woman for the last time and disappeared in just a breath.
