Chapter 195 Doubts

Xie Zhuoning narrowed his eyes and immediately ordered, "Xia Ju, close the door!"

Seeing that they not only did not leave but stayed, Hongxiu's face suddenly showed a trace of panic, "What do you want to do?"

Xie Zhuoning raised one corner of his lip, "We should be asking you this question. What did you want to do by drugging him?"

"What do you mean by drugging? I don't know what you are talking about..."

Hongxiu's face changed suddenly. She pulled her clothes and stood up to run.

But Xia Ju was much faster than her. She raised her hand, pulled off a piece of gauze, and threw it out, wrapping it around her waist. She pulled and tugged, and the person was wrapped up like a silkworm pupa.

She immediately opened her mouth to call for help, but Xia Ju was quick to take off her shoes and stuff them into her mouth.

The room suddenly became quiet.

At this time, Yang Yijun had already rushed to the bedside, but saw that his brother had a confused look in his eyes. He was pulling at his own clothes and kept muttering, "It's hot... so hot... so uncomfortable..."

"Brother, brother, brother, wake up!" Yang Yijun called him several times but there was no response. He was so anxious that he turned around and asked Xie Zhuoning, "Sister Xie, what should I do?"

His brother looks like he's in bad shape!

Xie Zhuoning glanced at Xia Ju, who immediately went forward to check.

After all, she used to be a killer, so she was very familiar with these methods. She recognized it in a short while, "Yes, Meng Chunhuan."

A drug often used in brothels to enhance sexual pleasure.

But if you use it too much, you will lose your mind and turn into a beast that only knows how to vent, and eventually die of exhaustion.

So sometimes when they need to kill someone accidentally, they will use this medicine to make the person pretend to have a stroke.

After hearing this, Xie Zhuoning became suspicious.

She originally thought that Hongxiu wanted to use medicine to keep Yang Fangwen.

But according to Xia Ju, the amount of medicine under Hong Xiu was intended to kill Yang Fangwen!

Could it be that there is some personal grudge between the two of them?

Just as I was thinking about it, I saw Yang Yijun picked up the teapot on the table and took a big gulp, then pointed it at Yang Fangwen and sprayed him in the face!

However, after finishing the pot of tea, he still didn't wake up.

Yang Yijun then began to slap him, shouting, "Brother, wake up, brother, wake up!"

Xie Zhuoning was dumbfounded by the scene of "brotherly love and sisterly respect"!

Seeing that Yang Yijun thought slapping him didn't work and was about to kick him, she rushed over to stop him, "Stop hitting me, or your brother will die."

It would be OK if the dose was small, but with such a large dose, even if the person is beaten to death, he will not be able to regain consciousness.

"What should we do?" Yang Yijun looked at Xie Zhuoning with red eyes, looking like a helpless little girl.

Who could have seen that she had slapped his brother so hard that his head was almost crooked?

Xie Zhuoning turned around and took the shoe out of Hongxiu's mouth. "Where's the antidote?"

Hongxiu vomited for a while, and when she came to her senses, she immediately wanted to call for help.

But Xie Zhuoning was waiting with the shoes in his hand, so she stuffed them into his mouth again and again, until she lost her temper. In the end, she could only answer honestly, "Who has the antidote for that thing?"

"You're not telling the truth, are you?"

"That's the truth. Even if you kill me, I don't have an antidote."

She rolled her eyes and looked uncooperative.

Seeing this, Xie Zhuoning fumbled around his body without saying a word, and finally took out a small porcelain bottle and poured the powder in the bottle on her face and body.

Xie Zhuoning considerately smoothed the areas that were not stained by the powder with his hands.

Hong Xiu was stunned for a moment, "What are you doing? Putting makeup on me?"

Xie Zhuoning shook his head. "This is not powder, this is rotten face powder. Wherever it touches, it will first itch, then start to rot, and in the end there will be no healthy skin on the whole body."

"Don't worry, I won't let you die. I will make your flesh rot away, piece by piece, leaving only bones, but still with a breath of life."

Is death the scariest thing in the world?

No, it's a life worse than death.

"You, you are a liar..." Hongxiu said this with an extremely ugly look on her face.

She thought these words were meant to scare her, but at this moment, her whole body suddenly began to itch.

Especially on the face, the itching is accompanied by burning pain.

I want to squeeze it but I can't, I can only feel heartbroken and distressed!

At first, Hongxiu was able to hold on, but after a while, she couldn't stand it anymore. "The antidote... the antidote is in the secret compartment at the head of the bed!"

Xia Ju immediately went to get the antidote and gave it to Yang Fangwen.

After a while, his eyes gradually became clear.

Seeing that Hongxiu was not lying, Xie Zhuoning asked Xia Ju to fetch a bucket of water and pour it on her.

The anxious feeling disappeared in an instant.

Hong Xiu was stunned. "Is that all?"

Xie Zhuoning chuckled, "It's just some itchy powder, just wash it off."

After saying this, he ignored Hongxiu's eyes that were about to spit fire, turned around and walked to Yang Fangwen, "Master Yang, how do you feel?"

Yang Fangwen was now fully conscious. Seeing himself in this state, he was shocked, "Oh, what a sin!"

He has no face to see anyone with this old face!

After a simple tidy up, everything was finally back to normal.

Xie Zhuoning asked Xia Ju to press and listen to Hongxiu's mute acupoints. Several people sat at the table and asked about what happened.

Yang Fangwen sighed and said, "Some time ago, Jian Liang, the head of the Jingzhao Prefecture, fell into the moat after getting drunk and died accidentally. Although the coroner performed an autopsy on the body and found no other traces of human intervention, I have always suspected that his death was not an accident."

"Oh? Why?" Xie Zhuoning asked curiously.

"Because before he died, he had been investigating a case. He was very happy to tell me that he had found a very important clue. Unfortunately, he died before he could tell me what it was."

So during this time, he has been secretly investigating the cause of death of Captain Jian.

When he was preparing to go to the banquet today, he happened to get a clue that Captain Jian had been to Yihonglou on the day he drowned, and it is very likely that he drank here.

That's why he hurried here to find out what happened that day.

But I didn’t expect that I would be in trouble as soon as I arrived!

Yang Yijun didn't expect the truth to be like this, and immediately laughed twice in embarrassment, "Well, brother, drink some water."

Yang Fangwen was very touched, "Yijun is becoming more and more considerate. But why does my face hurt a little?"

Yang Yijun: “Hehehe…”

Xie Zhuoning, who was standing by, became more and more confused the more he listened.

In other words, it was the first time that Yang Fangwen met Hong Xiu.

Then why would Hongxiu want to kill him?

And he died in such a controversial and spine-tingling way?

Xie Zhuoning asked Xia Ju to untie Hongxiu's acupuncture points, brought her over, and asked directly, "Why do you want to harm Lord Yang?"

Hong Xiu cried and protested, "I'm just a prostitute, how could I hurt anyone? I just wanted to get excited, and I didn't control the dosage well."

"You've been busy here and there, I don't know how many times you've used this medicine, how could you not know how to control the dosage?"

"If a man makes a mistake, a horse will stumble..."

No matter what Xie Zhuoning asked, Hongxiu could always find an excuse to fool him.

Until Xie Zhuoning suddenly asked her, "Do you know Captain Jian?"

Her pupils shrank, and then she returned to her normal state, "I don't know him."

Xie Zhuoning stared into her eyes. "You haven't heard about the guy who drank with you not long ago and fell into the moat and drowned on his way back? "

"Oh, him. I remember him now." Hong Xiu said nonchalantly, "He was a bad guy, a bad ghost. He deserved to be drowned."

"Really?" Xie Zhuoning stared at her, his eyes calm and deep, "Then why are you sad?"
