Chapter 67 You doubt me

Feng Jiuqing also arrived at the river in Lingshui County.

This river runs through the entire Lingshui County, but it is also the main culprit of floods.

She didn't know how dangerous the river was. She only knew that the river had calmed down now and the scenery was nice, but there was still some mud on both sides of the river bank.

Magistrate Wang saw her coming and hurriedly came to greet her.

At this time, he was convinced of Feng Jiuqing in his heart, and his tone was extremely respectful, "Your Highness, why are you here too? Just let us do the rough work."

"If I don't come, do you know what to look for?" Feng Jiuqing said.

This actually made a bunch of passionate big guys feel stupid.

Magistrate Wang thought for a moment and said, "Let's see if anyone has poisoned us?"

Feng Jiuqing was speechless.

"With such a big river, how many carriages do you think this person would have to use to pull the poison if he poisoned it?"

Magistrate Wang touched it and wondered, feeling stupid.

Yes, how could he forget this?

Feng Jiuqing already said: "Water is fluid, so this poison is unusual and may not have been thrown by humans."

After a pause, he added: "Well, let's see if there is anything in the river that was created after the flood."

Magistrate Wang was not stupid, and he understood as soon as he heard this, "What your Royal Highness is saying is that this poisonous thing may have been brought about by the flood?"

"This is also possible." Feng Jiuqing was noncommittal.

Magistrate Wang knew this, so he called a few people with excellent water skills and went down to the river to check.

After a while, these people came up one after another.

"No, sir, there is nothing special down here except some rocks."

Feng Jiuqing heard this and frowned, "Stone?"

She sent someone down to pick up a few pieces. The powder was tested and there was no reaction at all. It seemed that this was not the case.

Magistrate Wang was standing next to him, like a little eunuch waiting for Lafayette to speak, and he hurriedly asked: "Princess, have you found anything?"

"Not here."

"Then let's go to the next location." Magistrate Wang said immediately.

Feng Jiuqing nodded, but this time she didn't want to waste time. Seeing the direction they were going to Dong'an Inn, Feng Jiuqing thought about it and took a detour to the Liu Mansion in the town.

The flood was quite serious.

Although the Liu Mansion has a plaque on its door, it is not as good as a wealthy family like Chaodu.

At this time, everyone in the house was taking refuge outside. At first glance, the Liu Mansion looked like it had been abandoned for many years.

After taking a look outside, Feng Jiuqing felt a little timid because she didn't find An Qi.

But after coming, she gritted her teeth and went in anyway.

She had just entered the courtyard and found the well. Just as she was about to take a step, she saw a pair of hands suddenly stretching out from inside the well.

Feng Jiuqing was stunned.

The next moment, a black shadow suddenly climbed up vigorously from the well.

Feng Jiuqing was stunned and didn't know how to describe her current mood.

Luck or just too much luck?

She hid quickly.

Unexpectedly, he stepped on a piece of wood under his feet.

The click sound was particularly clear in this silent compound.

The man in black looked over, but Feng Jiuqing was unable to dodge. When their eyes met, a dart burst out from the man's hand!

Feng Jiuqing hurriedly dodged, and the dart immediately embedded itself in a pillar beside her.

Looking again, the man in black was not willing to fight at all. He failed to score a single blow and did not give up the chase. He just ran away in another direction.

Feng Jiuqing's sharp eyes saw that he was holding a strange red stone in his hand, and knew that that thing must be related to the poison this time.

"stop!"

I didn't care about anything at the moment and quickly caught up with him.

It was obviously not the first time for the man in black to come to the Liu Mansion, and he was familiar with the terrain. If the place hadn't been wide enough, Feng Jiuqing would have lost him long ago.

Looking for an opportunity, she picked up a stone and threw it hard.

This was a good accuracy. The black figure was hit and staggered, and the stone in his hand suddenly fell to the ground.

But Feng Jiuqing was already behind him, and he had no time to pick it up. He immediately kicked the stone to the corner of the back door.

There was a muffled groan immediately.

Feng Jiuqing didn't see his movements clearly and thought the stone was still on him, but she listened carefully to the voice behind the door and subconsciously took precautions.

Sure enough, a figure suddenly emerged from the corner.

Feng Jiuqing, with quick eyes and quick hands, endured the discomfort caused by the injury to her collarbone and threw her over her shoulder.

There was a sudden exclamation from below.

Feng Jiuqing lowered her head in shock and saw Miaoyu staring at her with a twisted face in pain.

"Why is it you?" she shouted.

Miaoyu's tears have already come out. She is so weak and pitiful, "Sister Princess, why did you suddenly attack me? Yu'er has never provoked you."

Feng Jiu suppressed the apology that came to her lips.

Yes! Who told you to pretend!

She let go of Wan Yu and continued chasing in the direction where the man in black was escaping.

Little did they know that the moment she turned around, Wongyu's eyes twisted from harmless to sinister.

And there was a strange red stone hidden under her body...

Feng Jiuqing chased him out, but naturally it was to no avail.

The man in black walked too fast and disappeared into the mountains behind him in the blink of an eye. She couldn't catch up even if she wanted to.

With no choice but to return to the military tent first.

But she never expected that good news would come from the camp.

"The poison was found, and it turned out to be a stone!"

As soon as she arrived at the door, she heard the sounds of people talking in surprise.

"Thanks to Miss Punchline this time!"

Feng Jiuqing was suspicious.

What is this situation?

As soon as she returned to the tent, she saw Nangong Ling already waiting in front of her.

And there was a red stone placed on the table. Wasn't that what she was chasing after the man in black?

"Why are you here?" Feng Jiuqing was so surprised that she forgot about her quarrel with Nangong Ling. She stepped forward and picked up the stone to examine it carefully.

Before Nangong Ling could speak, another soft and weak voice sounded, "Sister Princess, didn't this fall from you?"

Only then did Feng Jiuqing realize that there was someone standing behind Nangong Ling. Who else could it be if he wasn't a punchline?

And Nangong Ling had already said: "Yu'er also went to the palace."

"You left in a hurry, and she picked it up behind you. It looked weird, so she brought it back and soaked it in the water to try it. The water was indeed poisonous."

It was rare for him to explain so much.

But Feng Jiuqing was almost angry.

She threw the stone back on the table and said, "So you think this stone belongs to me and I was the one who poisoned it?"

Nangong Ling said nothing, wondering if she was acquiescing to his statement.

Miaoyu has already hurriedly defended, "Sister Princess, it's not that Yu'er doubts you, it's just that Yu'er only saw you when he went there, not..."

"That's because you didn't even see such a big person running past you!" Feng Jiuqing suppressed her anger, knowing that the witty words were causing trouble and ignored her.
