Chapter 316: Was it Wen Heng who poisoned?



Xia Jiang also felt that being rich and having status made one live more cautiously.

It's not satisfying at all. It's nothing like when I was in the countryside. Although I was just an ordinary person back then, I didn't have to worry all day about someone poisoning me or trying to kill me.

At night, Xia Zhiliao took the antidote pills over, and since she was in charge of the matter, she had to see it through to the end.

It’s not good for me not to show up.

If Wen Chao had known that he had been poisoned before, he would have been scared to death.

But now he is much calmer. Xia Zhiliao said that she could handle it, so he really is not worried at all.

When he saw Xia Zhiliao coming, he also looked calm.

"I know, you're here."

Xia Zhiliao was quite surprised. She stared at him and she thought for a moment that this boy had also been possessed by a spirit.

But it seems she was overthinking it.

"You saved my life this time too."

"What do you mean?" Xia Zhiliao asked.

Since it was in his own tent, Wen Chao said whatever he wanted, "You saved the starling before, this time it's my turn."

After rescuing the starling, the two of them became familiar with each other and became close.

Wen Chao always felt that Xia Zhiliao was not good enough to him, at least not as good as he was to Wen Heng and Ba Ge.

If Xia Zhiliao didn't know that he was afraid of death, he would have thought that he was eager to be poisoned.

However, Wen Chao's words also served as a reminder to myself.

She secretly cried out to me, "Oh no!", thinking that she was afraid she would be exposed again.

"Zhiliao, what's wrong with you?" Wen Chao asked.

He was also someone who knew about it, so Xia Zhiliao said whatever he wanted to say, "That's bad."

"What's wrong? Your medicine won't cure me, right?" Wen Chao asked worriedly, "Will I die?"

Xia Zhiliao rolled his eyes and said, "You're scared now, but weren't you still laughing just now?"

"Tell me quickly, will I..."

"No!" Xia Zhiliao was unusually calm, "Because this time it's my turn to die."

"Who wants to kill you? Who dares to kill you?" Wen Chao stood up.

Xia Zhiliao paused for a moment, and analyzed the situation carefully for him, "Only we know that I detoxified the Eighth Prince. The person who poisoned him must be wondering why he didn't react even though he was poisoned."

"You mean, that person will suspect you?"

Xia Zhiliao nodded. It must be said that Wen Chao was actually very smart, which was very similar to the novel. It’s just that he would do stupid things occasionally, and no one knew if he had a split personality.

"That's right. He didn't know before that I was the one who was causing the trouble. Now many people know that you were poisoned, and they also know that I developed the antidote for you. Then, he must have been able to guess who poisoned the Eighth Prince. I just exposed myself like this."

Xia Zhiliao sighed, "Then I have to be careful about getting hurt."

"Oh, Zhiliao, you are so smart." Wen Chao said with admiration, "Don't worry, you are not afraid of poisoning, and you don't go out alone, so nothing should happen."

Wen Chao looked at Xia Zhiliao and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Didn't you realize that I came here by myself?"

Xia Zhiliao is used to being alone. To put it bluntly, she has not yet adapted to her identity. She could have had many people serve her, but she always felt uncomfortable with someone around her.

When she came, she didn't think much about it, it was just a few steps away.

But you have to know that if someone wants to do something bad, a few steps are enough.

Wen Chao smiled, "So you are afraid too. I thought you were fearless. I will take you back."

"Wait!" Xia Zhiliao said suddenly.

"What's wrong? Are you worried about me? It's okay. I've taken your antidote and I'll be fine soon."

Xia Zhiyi guessed that she had misunderstood, "What are you thinking about? I've come up with a plan to lure the snake out of its hole."

"Ah..." Wen Chao's eyes sparkled with excitement, "You are really so smart, luckily you are a girl."

"What do you mean?" Xia Zhiliao asked.

Wen Chao smiled and said, "Nothing!"

Although he didn't say it out loud, Xia Zhiliao guessed something. This topic was very serious, so she didn't ask any further questions.

"It's possible to lure the snake out of its hole, but what about your safety?"

Wen Chao looked at her worriedly, "Is it too dangerous?"

"Instead of me being in the open while he is in the dark, and worrying all the time, and everyone I see looks like that person, it's better to find out his identity right away, so I know who to be wary of in the future."

Wen Chao nodded, thinking that what she said made sense.

"and you……"

Xia Zhiliao prepared a handful of poison powder, and would kill anyone who wanted to get close to her.

"You really don't want anyone to take you there?" Wen Chao said loudly outside the tent.

"No, it's just a few steps, I can do it myself."

Wen Chao nodded, his voice still loud, "Zhi Liao, you are so amazing, I didn't know you were an expert in detoxification, I am so sorry for you this time, if it weren't for you, I would have lost my life, and last time, my big brother..."

He closed his mouth at the right time and said, "Go back now."

Xia Zhiliao nodded. She was really happy that Wen Chao didn't have to act. With this look, he could definitely play the role of a scheming young man.

I don’t know if I can bring him with me when I travel back in time. I can be his agent, and then I won’t have to worry about food and drink in the future.

Xia Zhiliao skipped back, although the road was not very far and there was a tent in the middle, but in fact, it would not look so good if there was someone hiding in the dark.

But there were guards on patrol, so Xia Zhi concluded that if the man wanted to take action, he would have to do it himself.

Even if it means losing my life, I will do something.

And in his eyes, I am just a simple little girl.

Xia Zhiliao curled her lips, and suddenly, she felt that something was wrong with the air around her.

Is it him?

Coming?

Xia Zhiliao held his breath and continued to walk slowly forward, but his whole body was tense. He didn't know if Wen Chao was following him secretly. He shouldn't be such a disloyal person, right?

Suddenly, a hand covered her mouth from behind.

Xia Zhiliao was shocked. Damn, did she miscalculate?

Her arms were also clamped, but fortunately, she could still move a little, and that was enough.

Just as she was about to sprinkle the poison powder in her hand on the man, the person behind her noticed her intention, lowered his voice, and kept dragging her back, not knowing where he was taking her.

Xia Zhiliao was extremely nervous.

However, a familiar voice rang in her ears, "It's me!"

Wen Heng?

Xia Zhiliao was stunned.

Did he do all those things?

Not only poisoned Wen Yan, but also caused Wen Chao to fall from his horse?

He is very likely indeed.

Xia Zhiliao felt a little complicated at this moment. Was he going to kill him to silence him?

It happened so suddenly that her head was a mess.
