Chapter 278: Poisoning again, the secret was discovered in the middle of the night

Xiao Jinyan glanced at the two of them and said, "You're half right."

Wei Chi and Qin Xiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, guessing half right was still right.

Fortunately, I guessed it right, otherwise who knows how the master would punish us.

The two were just rejoicing inwardly when Xiao Jinyan's cold voice clearly reached their ears, "So, hold on for another hour."

The handsome faces of Wei Chi and Qin Xiao instantly fell down from their crotches. If they kept pushing for another hour, it would be fatal!

After holding on for the last hour, the two grown men collapsed on the ground.

Shen Chuwei has been going to Xiyun Pavilion quite frequently in the past two days, mainly because the fruits are ripe. Seeing the trees full of fruits is as gratifying as if she has seen her own children grow up.

After looking at the fruits, she passed by the chicken coop and looked inside. She found a dead bird.

She called Xiao Guizi over and said, "There's a dead sparrow in there."

Xiao Guizi looked inside and found a dead sparrow. He opened the fence door, went in, and carried the dead bird out.

Shen Chuwei ordered again: "Take out some of the chicken food inside."

Xiao Guizi didn't know what Shen Chuwei was going to do, but she still took out some and handed them to Shen Chuwei.

Shen Chuwei took out a disposable glove from her sleeve pocket. Actually, she took it from the space. It was very convenient and not easy to be discovered.

She put on gloves, pinched some with her fingertips, put it to the tip of her nose and smelled it, and her brows frowned.

Xiao Guizi asked in confusion: "My dear, what's wrong?"

Shen Chuwei put the chicken food on her fingertips back and said calmly, "There is poison in the chicken food."

"Ah?" Xiao Guizi immediately had a headache after hearing this, "My lady, can these chickens and ducks still survive?"

Shen Chuwei said: "It's okay, I put some antidote powder in the water."

Shen Chuwei had felt the pain for a long time since the last poisoning incident, so from that day on, she put spiritual spring water in the water that the chickens and ducks drank every day, just in case.

The spiritual spring water was delivered by Chunxi every day.

Xiao Guizi breathed a sigh of relief. Half of them were already dead, and if any more died, there would be nothing left.

Shen Chuwei was a little confused. Who did Ji Ya offend again? Why did he poison Ji Ya again and again?

night

Shen Chuwei usually takes a shower and goes to bed first, because Xiao Jinyan often goes to bed in the middle of the night and she never stays up late.

Today, Shen Chuwei planned to wait until Xiao Jinyan was done with his work and then ask him whether that little eunuch had come out again.

After waiting for so long that he was so sleepy, Shen Chuwei simply went out for a walk.

At the end of May, the weather was getting hotter.

In the dark night, there is always a "ding-dong, ding-dong" sound, which sounds like the sound of metal hitting stone.

Shen Chuwei paused. Why did it sound like someone hitting the wall?

She walked towards the source of the sound with curiosity.

The closer you get, the clearer the ding-dong sound becomes.

When she reached the backyard, she saw a fire and the occasional sound of stones being moved.

No way!

How dare someone break the wall and steal things in the residence of the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace?

Where are the guards?

Didn't you find anything?

He is so blatant, he must be a habitual offender.

When she watched TV dramas before, she thought it was unreal that someone would dare to enter the palace to steal things. But now that it has happened to her, she can't help but believe it.

Shen Chuwei was walking around in the yard, holding her weapon in her hand, and saw a mop in the corner. She had drawn the diagram for the mop and taught the little rabbit how to weave it.

Because every time I saw Guixiang kneeling on the ground to mop the floor, she said she was too tired, so she got a mop.

Shen Chuwei picked up the mop, weighed it in her palm, and felt it fit her perfectly.

She took the mop and walked over carefully so as not to alert anyone.

Seeing a dark head sticking out, she swung the mop over without saying a word.

Wei Chi had just smashed a hole in the other wall and just stuck his head out when he felt murderous intent and immediately retracted his head.

When Shen Chuwei saw that his attack missed, he knew that the thief had good skills and could react very quickly.

Now that we've been discovered, we can only go for help.

Just as I turned around, a tall figure suddenly fell in front of me. To be more precise, it flew over from the other side of the wall.

Just as Shen Chuwei was about to swing his fist, a big red lantern appeared before him.

A surprised voice came from above, "Shen Liangdi?"

"Guard Qin?" Shen Chuwei was a little surprised, and suddenly remembered something. She asked, "Are you here to catch a thief?"

Qin Xiao was confused.

Shen Chuwei pointed at the hole behind him and whispered, "Someone is smashing the wall."

Qin Xiao finally realized what Shen Chuwei was referring to. He explained, "Shen Liangdi, there was no thief. Wei Chi and I broke the wall."

This time it was Shen Chuwei's turn to be confused, "Why are you smashing the wall?"

Qin Xiao also said in a low voice: "Make a secret door to facilitate the master's passage."

Shen Chuwei was stunned at first, but then she realized that Xiao Jinyan was planning to use a backdoor in the future.

Qin Xiao said, "Shen Liang Di, please go back and rest. Your subordinates will continue to work."

"I'll go find His Highness." Without waiting for Qin Xiao to speak, Shen Chuwei turned around and ran towards the hole. Although the hole was small, Shen Chuwei's figure was also very petite, which did not hinder her from passing through at all.

Qin Xiao: “…”

Wei Chi looked at a person who suddenly came over, shone the lantern and found out it was Shen Liangdi.

"Shen Liangdi?"

"Guards, you continue with your work." After saying hello, Shen Chuwei trotted towards the study.

Qin Xiao walked over and looked at Shen Liangdi who had already run away, "Shen Liangdi is very brave."

Wei Chi asked, “What do you mean?”

Qin Xiao said: "You almost got caught with the mop that Shen Liangdi used."

The mop came from the Hehuan Palace. The prince's bedroom also has a mop.

Wei Chi couldn't help but ask, "That mop shouldn't be used to sweep the toilet, right?"

Qin Xiao glanced at Wei Chi and said, "It's hard to say."

Wei Chi: “…”

*

Shen Chuwei ran all the way to the study. She gently pushed open the door and the lights were on inside.

In front of the desk, Xiao Jinyan was sitting there in a dark brocade robe. The candlelight cast a dim shadow, perfectly highlighting his handsome profile on the white wall.

The narrow eyes are hidden under the hair.

Xiao Jinyan, who was originally reviewing memorials seriously, suddenly raised his head and looked over. When he saw Shen Chuwei, his eyes paused, and there was an imperceptible smile in his eyes.

Shen Chu smiled guiltily.

Xiao Jinyan: "Come in."

After Shen Chuwei came in, she closed the door and then walked happily to the desk.

Xiao Jinyan raised his eyes and looked at Shen Chuwei, "Why haven't you slept yet?"

"I'm waiting for His Highness, so I haven't slept yet." Shen Chuwei glanced at the memorials on the desk. There was a huge pile of them. He couldn't help but complain in his heart that the emperor was too cruel. No wonder Xiao Jinyan was busy every night and couldn't get a good rest.

"Wait for me?" Xiao Jinyan was a little curious, "What's the matter?"

Shen Chuwei said, "Your Highness, please go ahead and do your work. I am not in a hurry. It won't be too late to talk to you after you are done."

Xiao Jinyan put down the memorial in his hand and looked at her steadily, "If you are not in a hurry, why would you come here at this hour?"

"I didn't think of it at first. It was Wei Chi and Qin Xiao who were breaking down the wall. I discovered them and took the back door."
