Chapter 2236

Chapter 2236

He picked up Yan Yan's favorite bamboo shoots and put them in her bowl.

Liu Zhengchun poured wine for everyone and said, "I'd like to toast everyone."

Xiao Chengyi picked up the wine glass in front of him. He suddenly frowned, his expression changed and he said, "Don't drink."

Everyone was stunned, then saw Feng Changling smelling the wine in the cup and saying: "The wine is poisonous."

He stood up, checked the food on the table and said, "There is nothing wrong with the food."

Xiao Chengyi's eyes darkened slightly, and he said to Qingying: "Go and call the people from the kitchen."

Mu Yun'an was surprised: "Is someone trying to harm us?" She asked Xiao Chengyi: "Do we still have enemies?"

She thought that all dangers had been eliminated, but who would have thought that there were still unknown variables.

Who is going to put them to death?

Liu Zhengchun was also frightened. He quickly stood up and knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, this is an oversight made by a subordinate. Please punish me."

If something like this happens in the area under his jurisdiction, he will be held responsible.

Xiao Chengyi said: "You get up first."

Liu Zhengchun stood up and saw Qingying bringing the person in charge of the kitchen.

The person who came was the steward of the inn, his surname was Zhou. He didn’t know what was going on, so he asked curiously: “What are your orders, Your Majesty?”

Seeing that there was no panic on his face, Xiao Chengyi probably didn't know that the wine was poisonous.

He asked: "Where did this wine come from?"

Manager Zhou thought that Xiao Chengyi and the others liked the wine and wanted to reward him, so he said: "This wine is a small private collection, dedicated to honoring a few nobles."

Xiao Chengyi narrowed his eyes: "Then do you know that this wine is poisonous?"

Manager Zhou was stunned when he heard this, was there poison in the wine? When he realized it, his face turned frightened and he knelt down on the ground and said: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty is aware that the little one is not poisoned. This wine...

This wine is not a small one, someone gave it to me, it’s not..."

He was a little flustered and couldn't explain clearly.

Xiao Chengyi said: "Please tell me carefully. If you can't explain clearly, then you are a suspect. Poisoning this king is a capital crime."

Manager Zhou stammered: "Yes, it's Captain Yang. He knew that the prince was staying at the inn, so he sent several jars of high-quality daughter red, and wanted to use a small way to honor the prince.

The prince asked about the origin of this wine, and the young man thought that the prince liked the wine, so he lied and said it was his own."

He kowtowed a few times and said, "Your Majesty, even if you give me ten courages, I won't dare to murder your Majesty."

Xiao Chengyi asked: "Who is this Captain Yang?"

Liu Zhengchun said: "The lower official knows this person. He is an errand in the Yamen, and he used to be Meng Tonghui's subordinate.

After the lower official took office, he felt that there was something wrong with him as a person, so he found some fault and dismissed him from his post."

Mu Yun'an frowned: "Is it to take revenge on Master Liu?"

However, Xiao Chengyi felt that the matter was not simple. He raised his head and said to Qingying: "Take someone to catch this Agent Yang."

Qingying cupped his fists and said yes, then turned and left.

Mu Rufeng looked at Xiao Chengyi and said, "How many people have you offended? No wonder my Yan Yan is always in danger. I think you are a disaster."

The corners of Xiao Chengyi's lips twitched: "Dad, haven't we found out the matter yet? How do you know that you must have harmed me?"

Mu Rufeng said: "Don't you know if it's harming you?"
