Chapter 81 Mandarin Duck Wine Pot

However, the weapon He Zhiran used to kill people at that time was much larger than this.

Moreover, he could still vividly remember the power of that weapon. Even he couldn't see how the hidden weapon was thrown out, which shows how fast it was.

Seeing that Mo Jiuye had been attracted by the mini pistol, He Zhiran planned to take advantage of the situation and pursue him.

"You've seen my weapons. If I follow you, I won't be a burden. I can even be a help to you."

Mo Jiuye was still hesitating.

He Zhiran continued to persuade him: "Think about my medical skills. If Nan Qi tampered with the food or wine, I would be able to find out immediately, right?"

After listening to her clear and logical explanation, Mo Jiuye finally compromised.

"You can go with me, but if you encounter any danger, it's important to save your own life. Don't worry about me, okay?"

He Zhiran nodded vigorously: "I know, don't worry, I will never put myself in danger."

After the matter was settled, the two returned to bed. Although neither of them felt sleepy, they still tried to maintain the same posture, fearing that they would accidentally touch each other...

The next morning, Peng Wang did not make any arrangements to continue his journey.

For this reason, everyone is a little confused.

However, no one took the initiative to ask the reason. They were naturally happy to rest in the inn for one more day.

It was not until near noon that a carriage arrived outside the inn.

The coachman came in to invite Mo Jiuye, and the officers showed no intention of stopping him, and everyone suddenly realized what was going on.

It turns out that the reason why we didn’t continue our journey today was related to Mo Jiuye.

I just don't know who has such great ability that not only can they stop their journey, but also send a carriage to pick up the prisoner.

Old Madam Mo pulled Mo Jiuye with a worried look on her face.

"Jiuye?"

Mo Jiuye patted Madam Mo's arm gently and said, "Don't worry, Mom. An acquaintance of mine has prepared a farewell banquet for me. I'll be back soon."

Although Madam Mo was worried, she had seen big scenes after all.

She knew very well that she could not stop her son.

So he earnestly warned: "You are no longer the majestic Protector of the Country. Don't try to be the leader in everything."

"Mom, don't worry, I'll go with my husband, and nothing will happen."

In order to reassure her mother-in-law, He Zhiran took the initiative to help Mo Jiuye explain.

Hearing that He Zhiran was going with his son, Mrs. Mo felt a little more at ease.

"Okay, you two should take care of each other when you're out."

After comforting Madam Mo, He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye got on the carriage together.

The driver looked at He Zhiran deeply, wanting to say something but hesitating.

Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran tacitly chose to ignore it.

The carriage had a smooth journey and soon arrived at Tianfu Restaurant.

Nan Qi personally greeted him at the door.

To his surprise, He Zhiran also came along.

After being stunned for a moment, Nan Qi quickly put on a harmless smile.

"My sister-in-law, you came just in time. I specially ordered some nourishing soup. It's very suitable for women."

Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran also played their roles well, nodded gratefully to Nan Qi, and then followed him to the box on the second floor.

The two guards in front of the box door quickly made way when they saw their master coming.

Nan Qi ordered the guards: "No one is allowed to come in and disturb us without my order."

"yes."

When I entered the box, I saw eight dishes, one soup and an exquisite wine jug on the table.

The dishes are a combination of meat and vegetables, and they look very good. It can be seen that Nan Qi really put a lot of effort into it.

However, He Zhiran didn't feel anything about these dishes. All her attention was focused on the wine jug.

To ordinary people, this wine jug only looks valuable. However, He Zhiran saw the secret at a glance.

If she identified it correctly, this was the mandarin duck wine pot that often appeared in TV dramas in her previous life.

There are two layers inside the wine jug, and there is a very small mechanism button at the handle. The insider can control the wine poured out of the wine jug to be poisonous or non-toxic according to needs.

He Zhiran sneered in his heart. In order to take Mo Jiuye's life, Nan Qi really did everything he could.

Nan Qi was full of confidence today and smiled as he invited the two to take a seat.

He Zhiran deliberately chose to sit closest to the mandarin duck wine pot.

Nan Qi said some polite words and then stood up to get the wine jug, but He Zhiran got there first.

"Your Highness, despite all the criticism, invited my husband and I to dinner. We are truly honored. How could you even pour the wine yourself?"

While He Zhiran was speaking, he didn't even look at Nan Qi's face, which was about to become constipated. He first came to his side and filled the wine glass.

Nan Qi stared at He Zhiran's hand holding the wine jug without blinking. Seeing that she did not press the button, his tense heart relaxed a little.

He Zhiran pretended not to notice Nan Qi's fleeting constipated expression and quickly filled Mo Jiuye's glass with wine.

To verify whether the wine glass was poisonous, she deliberately said loudly: "This wine smells really good, but it's a pity that I can't drink, so I'll just smell it."

As she spoke, she quickly picked up Mo Jiuye's wine glass, put it under her nose and sniffed it. After making sure that there was no problem, she put it back in its place.

"I'm sorry to make you laugh, Your Highness. I've had a bad habit since I was little. I don't drink alcohol, but I like to smell good wine."

The corners of Nan Qi's lips twitched.

"It's okay, there are no outsiders here, sister-in-law, there is no need to be restrained."

Mo Jiuye could naturally understand He Zhiran's series of actions. She was telling him that there was nothing wrong with the alcohol.

So, Mo Jiuye took the initiative to pick up the wine glass.

"Thank you, Your Highness Prince Qi, for not looking down on my criminal status and seeing me off. Jiuye will drink first as a token of respect."

Seeing Mo Jiuye drink the wine in the glass in one gulp, Nan Qi did not hesitate and drank it all in one gulp.

Seeing that Nan Qi was about to take the wine jug again, He Zhiran quickly stood up and held the wine jug in his hand.

"It's better for the common people to come."

Seeing that He Zhiran still didn't press the button of the mechanism, Nan Qi guessed that she probably didn't notice anything strange about the wine jug.

However, she kept holding the wine jug tightly, so how could she pour the poisoned wine into Mo Jiuye's cup?

Thinking of this, Nan Qi felt depressed.

However, no matter how he expressed his desire to pour wine for his brother himself, He Zhiran always found opportunities to get the wine jug first.

At the same time, He Zhiran checked every dish on the table. After confirming that there was no problem with the dishes, he gave Mo Jiuye a wink, telling him to eat without worry.

Soon, He Zhiran poured out the non-poisonous part of the wine in the jug.

Seeing that Mo Jiuye's expression didn't change, she was sure that he could drink quite a bit.

Looking at Nan Qi again, although he was still sitting upright, his face was flushed.

I guess if these two were to compete in drinking, Nan Qi would definitely be the first to get drunk.
