Qiao Jiaojiao frowned tightly, looked at Madam Qiao and asked, "Mom, isn't it smelly?"

Mrs. Qiao shook her head and said, "Jiaojiao, mother didn't smell it."

Qiao Jiaojiao looked around with a puzzled look on her face, then got off Mrs. Qiao and sniffed hard to suppress the stench.

"That's right, Stinky!"

[Oh my god, what is this smell? Is there a sewer in the palace? ]

[Wait, let me smell it, where does this smell come from! ]

Qiao Jiaojiao turned around, finally locked on a direction, and walked towards it.

She can walk steadily now.

Seeing this, Mrs. Qiao quickly got up and followed.

Although Qiao Zhongguo was chatting with his colleagues, his attention was always on his wife and children.

Now seeing Qiao Jiaojiao walking out, he said something to the person next to him and hurriedly followed.

"Madam, what's wrong?" Qiao Zhongguo caught up with Mrs. Qiao and asked with concern.

Mrs. Qiao followed Qiao Jiaojiao's gaze and said in a low voice, "Jiaojiao suddenly said she smelled a bad odor."

Qiao Zhongguo also sniffed subconsciously, but found nothing.

But the next moment, he suddenly reacted.

Smelly?

The last time Jiaojiao said something stinks was when she smelled the secret potion of bliss.

Thinking of this, Qiao Zhongguo immediately became nervous!

Qiao Jiaojiao followed the disgusting smell and walked straight until she stopped in front of the source of the stench.

"Little sister? Father? Mother?"

Han Yaxian was sitting behind the desk, holding hands and chatting with Xiao Qianyue.

Seeing Qiao Zhongguo and the others suddenly coming over, she was startled and stood up quickly.

"Dad, Mom, what's wrong?"

Xiao Qianyue stood up with a confused look on her face. After she came to her senses, she quickly bowed to Qiao Zhongguo and Mrs. Qiao.

Mrs. Qiao was worried about attracting other people's attention, so she smiled and said, "Xian'er, Miss Xiao, it's okay, Jiaojiao just can't sit still and wants to get up and walk around."

Xiao Qianyue didn't doubt anything when she heard this, but since Qiao Zhongguo was also there, she couldn't stay any longer, so she bowed and returned to her seat.

Han Yaxian didn't think things were that simple.

However, she did not dare to show anything unusual. She just walked forward, held Mrs. Qiao's hand, and spoke as if nothing had happened.

Mrs. Qiao knew that her eldest daughter-in-law was very insightful, so she secretly squeezed her hand.

Qiao Jiaojiao stood in front of the table, looking at the fruits and snacks on the table one by one, and finally her eyes fixed on a cup of tea.

Her heart skipped a beat, but she was afraid that the Second Prince might be spying on her, so she didn't dare to do anything too obvious and took a long breath without making a sound.

The suction was so strong that it almost made Qiao Jiaojiao pass out!

[Oh my god, it smells so horrible! I found it, it’s this cup of tea! ]

Qiao Jiaojiao quickly pulled at the hem of Qiao Zhongguo's shirt.

Seeing this, Qiao Zhongguo bent down and picked her up. Qiao Jiaojiao pretended to be innocent and said in a low voice:

"Stinky! Dad, the tea stinks!"

[Dad, you must believe me! There must be something wrong with this cup of tea! ]

When Qiao Zhongguo heard this, he was extremely shocked!

During the last princess incident, Qiao Zhongguo had vaguely guessed that maybe Jiaojiao was blessed by God and had done good deeds, so poisons and drugs would emit an unbearable stench when they were in Jiaojiao's place.

In this way, Jiaojiao will not be harmed by these drugs.

If the facts are really as he guessed, then the cup of tea in front of the eldest daughter-in-law is poisonous!

Thinking about what Jiaojiao had predicted, that his eldest daughter-in-law would be infertile for life due to the poisoning and would live in sorrow, Qiao Zhongguo became furious and filled with murderous intent!

There really is someone who wants to make the Qiao family extinct. His intentions are so sinister and outrageous!

Qiao Jiaojiao immediately became concerned about Han Yaxian's safety and reached out to hug her.

[Sister-in-law didn't drink that cup of tea, did she? If she did, I'll use the Merit Mall to detoxify her now! ]

"Sister-in-law, are you thirsty? Do you want to drink?" Qiao Jiaojiao asked quickly.

Han Yaxian took Qiao Jiaojiao from Qiao Zhongguo's arms. After hearing these words, she vaguely guessed that there was something wrong with the cup of tea. She was immediately shocked and horrified!

Fortunately, she already knew that she might be poisoned, so she had planned not to eat or drink anything when attending the palace banquet this time.

She doesn't dare to take the risk.

So, she pretended to be relaxed and tapped Qiao Jiaojiao's nose, saying with a smile:

"Sister-in-law drank some tea before she went out, so she's not thirsty at all. Is it my little sister who is thirsty?"

When Qiao Jiaojiao heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief and quickly shook her head.

She doesn't drink sewer water!

At this time, Qiao Zhongguo suddenly leaned forward slightly, sniffed it carefully, and then frowned, "It really stinks!"

Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes lit up immediately, "Right, right!"

[Great, Dad can smell it too! Dad, there is definitely something wrong with this tea! ]

Qiao Zhongguo stood up, frowned, and asked, "Daughter-in-law, who poured this tea for you?"

Han Yaxian looked around and suddenly saw a pretty face, and the palace maid was also looking at her with eyes wide open!

Noticing Han Yaxian's gaze, the palace maid's expression suddenly changed, and she turned around and ran to the side door!

Seeing this, Han Yaxian hurriedly exclaimed: "It's her!"

Qiao Zhongguo was furious and started to chase after him. Because his movements were so large, everyone looked over at him.

Qiao Zhongguo no longer cared about losing manners, as his martial arts skills were so high that the palace maid had just run out of the side door when Qiao Zhongguo grabbed her by the back of the collar!

Unexpectedly, the next moment, the palace maid collapsed as if she had lost all strength.

Qiao Zhongguo's face changed slightly, and his hand loosened. The palace maid fell to the ground with a thud, and blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.

Xiao Hongda and Han Mingzhe hurried over to check, and Xiao Hongda squatted down directly.

He pinched the maid's mouth open with force, only to see blood oozing from her mouth.

"He had medicine hidden in his mouth and is dead!" Xiao Hongda shook his head and said in a cold voice.

Qiao Zhongguo's eyes were gloomy. The next moment he suddenly thought of something and quickly pushed through the crowd to return to the hall.

Qiao Jiaojiao noticed Qiao Zhongguo's gaze, turned her head and saw a palace maid reaching for the cup of poisoned tea!

[Destroy the evidence! This palace maid wants to destroy the evidence! ]

Qiao Jiaojiao opened her mouth slightly and almost shouted "Stop", but a jade pendant flew over and hit the palace maid directly between her eyebrows!

"ah--"

The maid screamed miserably and fell to the ground, covering her head.

Everyone gasped when they saw this and instinctively looked towards where the hidden weapon came from.

Under the bright lights, Qiao Zhongguo had a gloomy look, a stern expression, and an indescribable majesty!

The next moment, he strode towards his wife and daughter, his skirt fluttering, and wherever he passed, people gave way.

“Hmm!”

The palace maid only screamed once, and then she was no longer able to breathe. She was as decisive in her death as a death warrior!

Qiao Zhongguo walked to the table, quickly picked up the cup of poisoned tea, and then stood in front of his family to shield them from the bloody scene.

Qiao Jiaojiao couldn't bear to watch such a scene, so she simply stared at the cup of poisoned tea, thinking to herself:

[Since the other party wants to destroy the evidence, it means that the source of this tea...should be traceable! ]
