It wasn't Third Sister's doing, and Mr. Jing is an old man and trustworthy, so the only people who know about this are Qingyun and me. So the traitor is either Qingyun or me!"
"Yan'er! What nonsense are you talking about! Daddy has seen and remembered everything you have done for the Marshal's Mansion. He will never suspect you no matter what!"
"Then the Lord is suspicious of me?" Jing never talked much, but he wouldn't tolerate anyone who dared to offend him. Anyway, the young lady was married now, and if he didn't want to gather more information, he wouldn't bother staying in the Marshal's Mansion.
So if I’m in a bad mood one day, I can just leave.
Listening to Jing and Murong Xiao's veiled words, Murong Qingyu felt a sense of unease. While this matter was indeed strange, and he was a suspicious person, he knew Jing well. If he wanted to betray him, he would have done so long ago. If he wanted to kill Yang Yi, he would have killed him long ago. Even if everyone else was worthy of suspicion, he would not doubt this old subordinate who had followed him for over a decade.
"Jing, Yan'er is just a little girl, why are you bothering with her? You have followed me for so many years. No matter what you do, have I ever doubted you?
In this Marshal's Mansion, although you are my guard, you are also half my master. To receive such treatment is enough to prove my trust in you, isn't it? Don't bother with Yan'er anymore. As for today's matter, I will slowly investigate it. Don't say any more random suspicions.
Now that Yang Yi is dead, the Marshal's Office is missing someone proficient in poison techniques, making our work very difficult. Now that we've offended Mo Yunfang, if she sends poisonous bats against us again, we'll be in a very vulnerable position. Do you know anyone proficient in poison techniques? If we can recruit him to the Marshal's Office and use him, we'll certainly treat him well."
Murong Qingyu's words elicited a wry laugh from Murong Yan.
"Yan'er, what are you laughing at?"
"I laugh at Daddy. This person is both far away and right in front of me, but Daddy doesn't know it."
Murong Qingyu was stunned and shocked. He pointed at Murong Yan and asked, "Do you know about poison?"
Murong Yan smiled and shook her head, saying, "Yan'er doesn't understand, but Xiao'er does. And Yan'er can assure Daddy that Xiao'er not only understands poison, she's an expert in it. She even bluntly said that compared to her, Yang Yi is nothing but a small fry."
Murong Yan's words were like a bombshell exploding in everyone's heart. For a moment, no one present spoke.
"Dad, Yan'er has always said that Xiao'er and we are not on the same page, but you always make excuses for her. So do you know what Yan'er said?"
Seeing that Murong Qingyu and Murong Qingyun were still in shock, Murong Yan revealed a cold smile: "If Daddy thinks Xiao'er's heart is on the side of the Marshal's Mansion, then let Xiao'er accept Yang Yi's request. I believe that with her poison skills, she can do what Yang Yi can do, and she can also do what Yang Yi can't do."
After saying this, without even glancing at the people present, he turned and walked towards his own Misty Rain Pavilion.
Murong Qingyun originally wanted to pull Murong Yan to speak for Murong Xiao, but was stopped by Murong Qingyu.
After staring at Murong Yan's back for a long time, Murong Qingyu finally dismissed everyone and walked up to the Misty Rain Pavilion. Murong Qingyun didn't understand what was going on and followed him.
