With Feng Qinran's ability, he had planted so many people in the Qin State before. Although Ye Sheng was dead, he must still have subordinates. It was not impossible to sow discord in front of the Qin Emperor and kill Wen Songzhi.
But no matter what, even if there is someone behind it, if they really want to kill Wen Songzhi, they have to do it through Emperor Qin. If he has no intention of killing Wen Songzhi, Wen Songzhi will definitely not be in danger of life or death. .
What Shen Mingzhu didn't say was that she didn't trust Emperor Qin at all. She even doubted whether it was his conspiracy? This would require her subordinates to step up their efforts to collect intelligence.
And Shen Mingzhu also had a plan, hoping to rescue Wen Songzhi and avoid war.
Early the next morning, Shen Mingzhu and Xiao Xian were about to say goodbye to the farmhouse and leave, but they even said twice but did not hear a response from their host.
The two of them immediately realized something was wrong. Shen Mingzhu stayed outside, while Xiao Xian rushed in, and then discovered that the landlord's family had been dead for a long time.
They were lying on the kang, apparently dead in their sleep, with no pain on their faces.
Shen Mingzhu rushed in immediately when she saw that there was no ambush. She was also surprised to see the dead body on the bed. She quickly checked and said in surprise: "It turned out to be poisoning."
Judging from the way they died, there was no pain at all, it was just a very powerful poison.
Xiao Xian said: "The food we eat and the water we drink are also prepared by the landlord. It is supposed to be the same as them. Why are we not poisoned when they die?"
He and Shen Mingzhu lived in the backyard, which was not far from the front yard. If someone sneaked in to kill someone at night, they would definitely know about it. But this family ate poison with little reaction and died in their sleep without pain or pain. Struggle, so they didn't hear anything strange.
Shen Mingzhu speculated: "This person probably didn't sneak in to kill people. Rather, he seemed to have made arrangements in advance. The poison was probably placed in the food."
She looked around but found nothing. It seemed that only an autopsy could determine the real cause of death.
She thought they might have eaten some snacks or something like that. The quantity was not large, and the two of them asked the landlord not to disturb them easily, so she and Xiao Xian didn't eat these snacks, but the landlord's family themselves. After eating it, he was poisoned to death?
They didn't have time to do more research. After all, they just stayed overnight, and something like this happened. This was obviously to delay their time.
So now they have no choice but to leave first, and then leave a secret order for Yanzhi and others to handle it, carefully examine the body, and then find out the exact cause of death.
If she waits for the government to intervene, then although she and Xiao Xian can leave, they will be delayed. I'm afraid this is the real purpose of the person behind the scenes.
After a brief discussion, the two set off on the road immediately without any further delay.
Just after they left the secret order and went on the road, several masked men immediately appeared in front of the farmhouse. Taking advantage of the dim light of the morning, they rushed into the farmhouse, poured kerosene in the house, and then grabbed enough firewood. A fire set the farmhouse on fire.
There had been no rain these days, and the weather was very dry. It was very hot early in the morning, and with kerosene fueling the fire, the small courtyard was soon covered in fire.
Neighboring farmers nearby clamored to come to put out the fire, and the scene was very chaotic for a while.
