C23 Trap

Qingning nodded, and brought Zhinuan to follow the man into the simple hut.

Upon arriving at the door, the person extended his hand to stop the two little girls: "Master said, only Second Miss Lu is allowed in!"

"No way, I want to follow my young miss!" After Zhinuan heard this, he protested without thinking.

Although Miss has become smart now, but I don't know what this person is planning.

"Zhinuan, I forgot to bring my order badge!"

She touched her empty waist. Her clothes were thin and she did not have any other accessories, which was the complete opposite of Lu Mengyan.

"Without the order badge, how can we enter the city if we're late? Miss, please wait. I will go back and get it! "

Seeing Zhinuan, with a face full of anxiety, jogging back to the city, Qingning couldn't help but laugh.

The nature of that great disaster was unpredictable, not to mention the fact that such a secretive poisoning had involved one less person.

"Second Miss, please!"

The middle-aged man dressed as a groom pushed open the door and indicated for her to go ahead.

There seemed to be a gaze of unknown meaning drifting behind him. Qingning turned around to take a look.

Not far away, Qin Yixuan and Lu Mengyan were still busy trying to get along with each other and were being pursued.

Only Qiu Yun stood a few steps away with his hands folded obediently, seeing her turn her head, he immediately raised his smiling face and said: "This servant will wait for you outside the door!"

Qingning focused his gaze, and saw various types of medicinal ingredients piled up into mountains. There were a myriad of them, but there were no truly valuable items, so he planned to categorize them and use them for his analysis.

Suddenly, someone closed the door, bringing out a strong gust of wind that swept the medicinal herb ashes not far away to the front of his eyes. The Invisible Bracelet immediately began to slowly tremble.

Qingning turned around and walked towards the big pot medicine used to concoct the Cold Soup. The closer he got to his right hand's bracelet, the more intense the vibrations became.

There was something wrong with this medicine ?

As he approached the big pot, he saw the calabash shaped bottle lying beside the stove. There was still some white powder scattered on the side.

She had just picked up the gourd when someone burst through the door with a "Hua" sound.

Two young men that looked like servants stood at the door, and they were stunned for a moment when they saw her.

Afterwards, the servant with a slightly larger body pointed at her and asked loudly, "Second Miss Lu, what are you doing?"

The Invisible Bracelet had already clearly detected the composition of the powder in the bottle ? ? Heavenly Fairy.

Although it may sound like an elegant substance, and although it may be used medically, it is dangerous to eat it or to use it more often. Respiratory paralysis or sudden death occurs when the fever, restlessness, delirium, and hallucinations are severe.

"You stay here and watch. I'll go report it to the noble heir!"

After the other attendant said this, he immediately ran towards the awning across the way.

The last one, the four of them stood at the entrance like diamonds, guarding against her escape.

In this situation, if someone were to accidentally knock over this powder, it would be impossible.

Someone had just lured her here, and coincidentally, someone immediately came in to see her with a small bottle of fairy medicine in her hand.

This time, he was in a situation where he couldn't say it out loud.

Qingning quickly threw the bottle of medicine into the invisible space and swept his eyes over the exit other than the wooden door. The only window inside had been sealed shut by iron bars.

Everything happened too quickly and too coincidentally. It must have been a meticulously planned plan by someone ?

A wisp of white cloth had already reached the corner of his clothes by the door. The manservant behind him bowed and reported: "Mistress, Second Miss Lu had taken a bottle of medicine by himself and placed it in front of the soup. I don't know what he did!"

What's more, this master wasn't this master, so she was too careless.

The man frowned as he stretched out his hand, and looked at Qingning with disgust: "Hand over what you took!"

He didn't know why, but every time he saw this person, he would always have the expression of someone who was looked down upon by his superiors.

Disgusted, Qingning looked at him coldly, and asked: "What do you want me to take, and what do you want me to hand over?"

"You ?"

Qin Yixuan fumed and quickly grabbed her wrist.

Qingning casually spread open his hands, but his hands were empty; between his sleeves, half of his white wrist could be seen, and the jade bones that he touched felt warm.

He gripped her hands in disbelief. He had never imagined that the woman who had loved and admired him so much in the past would have such a pair of hands.

"Take good care of your man, lest he goes into a fit of thirst!" Qingning strongly brushed away his hand, and said to Lu Mengyan who entered the door with a face full of disgust.

Qin Yixuan released her hands as though she had been electrocuted, but her gaze was still fixated on the pair of phoenix eyes that held him in contempt.

"noble heir Xuan, you ?" Lu Mengyan called out, but she did not finish the words, they were already glistening with tears.

Qin Yixuan turned his face away, and said to the few teachers who followed behind him: "Go and check the soup over there!"

After the doctor took out a silver needle from his medicine box and walked towards the soup, Qingning interrupted: "There's no need to take the examination! The medicinal soup is poisonous! "

As she finished speaking, the eyes of everyone in the room fell on her body. A trace of barely discernible happiness flashed across Lu Mengyan's eyes, the flicker of tears from a moment ago had long since disappeared.

Qin Yixuan looked at her, raised his eyebrows and said: "What, you want to directly admit your wrongs!"

Qingning asked: "What crime have I committed?"

What kind of divine logic was this?

Could it be that since she was in the house and knew that there was poison in the soup, she was the murderer?

Lu Mengyan's beautiful eyes swept the room, and the two attendants who had entered the room first walked to his left and right side and said, "Master, Second Miss Lu was alone in the room for so long. When we entered, she was still holding onto a bottle of medicine, so it should be considered as evidence!"

"Before we entered, there was a servant girl who was looking around furtively at the entrance. When she saw us, she shouted towards us before running away as fast as she could! Master, if they weren't guilty of being thieves, they wouldn't have ended up panicking like this! "

The lines were so fluent that he was afraid he had practiced them more than once or twice.

Qin Yixuan looked down at her condescendingly with eyes full of contempt, "Lu Qingning, what else do you have to say for yourself?"
