Chapter 1557 Killing the chicken to scare the monkey (2)
The civil servants in the court are all ordinary people, and their physical fitness is far inferior to that of the generals who are warriors.
The military generals also consciously protected them. After getting the steamed buns, they gave priority to the elderly and weak literati, and finally it was their turn.
However, there is only so much food in total, so eat one less.
This little steamed bun obviously can't fill everyone's stomach, it just prevents them from starving to death and hanging on their last breath.
Several generals saved their own steamed buns and gave them to older civil servants. They were all so hungry that they felt dizzy and their stomachs growled.
The palace maids didn't say anything when they saw their actions, they just turned a blind eye and continued to throw the steamed buns in.
After the steamed buns were thrown away, they took out several water bags filled with water, passed them through the gaps in the iron bars, placed them on the ground, then picked up the empty bamboo baskets, stood up and left in silence.
Yun Luo saw this scene from a distance and couldn't help but frown.
She took Jun Wuchen's hand and wrote: "Those generals are all warriors, but they would not be so weak if they were hungry. I suspect that their drinking water has been drugged."
Jun Wuchen nodded slightly.
Yun Luo wrote again: "I have an idea, bring me a steamed bun and have a look."
Jun Wuchen was slightly startled, looking down at her and asking - what do you want to do?
Yun Luo thought for a while and summoned the puppet vine.
Thin vines emerged from her palms, swaying doubtfully.
Yun Luo pointed to the steamed buns under the steps of the main hall and conveyed his thoughts to it.
Puppet Vine quickly understood.
This is a trivial matter to it.
It quickly shook its body, slid to the ground, and swam forward quickly along the ground, like a thin snake, inconspicuous and unnoticeable in the night.
The puppet vine successfully rolled up the steamed bun, wrapped it up, and dragged it back little by little.
After a while, Yun Luo successfully got the steamed buns.
The steamed buns were cold and hard. After rolling on the ground, they became gray and unappetizing.
On the surface, there seemed to be nothing wrong with it, but when Yun Luo opened it and exposed the white steamed bun core inside, Jun Wuchen immediately smelled a strange smell
"Sure enough, he was drugged." Jun Wuchen narrowed his eyes slightly.
He was not familiar with drugs. Although he could smell it, he could not tell what kind of drug it was.
Yun Luo distinguished it carefully and wrote on the palm of his hand: "It's probably not a deadly poison, it may be something that makes people feel weak. The smell is so obvious, I'm afraid it's not the best stuff."
Really powerful poisons are often colorless and odorless, making them difficult to guard against.
But this kind of good thing is not common to ordinary people.
These civil and military officials are already the turtle in the urn. Even if Ji Xiuling had the best poison in her hands, she would not bother to waste it on them.
Just some low-quality ordinary drugs are enough to make them unable to escape.
While Yun Luo was thinking about it, Jun Wuchen suddenly patted her lightly and raised his finger to point to the main hall.
Yun Luo immediately retracted his mind and raised his eyes.
It turned out that the middle-aged nun saw that the maids had finished delivering food and water and were about to leave.
Between lightning and stone.
Yun Luo suddenly thought that this middle-aged nanny could walk freely in the palace, and even the Jinwu Guards were very afraid of her. She was probably someone close to Ji Xiuling.
Moreover, Mammy has the spiritual energy fluctuations of a warrior, and her strength is only around the seventh level, so it is not difficult to deal with.
"Follow us and have a look?" Jun Wuchen had the same idea and whispered.
Yun Luo narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded slightly.
The two men immediately concealed their figures and followed quietly.
