The murderous intent permeating Feng Wuji's body made him instinctively feel a sense of fear!
However, after all, he was a battle-hardened man, and he soon came to his senses.
"You brat, I, Cao Xuan, am not scared!"
"As the deputy governor of the Hou Mansion, you dare to kill me?"
Cao Xuan threatened.
When Feng Wuji heard this, he laughed directly.
This Cao Xuan really has well-developed limbs and a simple mind.
It's really funny that when death is imminent, he still wants to wear the tiger skin of the Hou family.
With such an intellect, can't you just stay under the command of Marquis Shanyin and become a deputy governor?
Do you still want to go out and make meritorious deeds independently?
ridiculous!
"Do you think that if you poison the Marquis of Shanyin, there will still be room for you in the Marquis' Mansion?"
"You're just a traitor. If I kill you now, the Marquis may thank me when he wakes up. Do you think so?"
Feng Wuji asked jokingly.
Cao Xuan's heart trembled, and he suddenly realized that what he had done had reached a point where even the Marquis Mansion could not tolerate it. What was the point of being the deputy governor of the Marquis Mansion?
"Sister-in-law, Feiyu..."
He subconsciously looked at the two of them.
"Cao Xuan, you are so disappointing. I owe you the Lord Marquis for treating you like a brother. Is this how you repay him?"
Fei Xin's face was cold and he scolded angrily.
Her attitude directly cut off Cao Xuan's last glimmer of hope.
"Sister-in-law, I was wrong, very wrong!"
"But sister-in-law, please believe me, I don't really want to kill my eldest brother, I..."
Cao Xuan said with regret on his face.
His words were tantamount to admitting the poisoning.
Fei Xin was okay, Sikong Feiyu looked at Cao Xuan, dumbfounded, as if the world had collapsed.
She is as simple-minded as she is. She has regarded Cao Xuan as a family member since she was a child. How could she have thought that he could do such a thing?
"Uncle Cao Xuan, my father is your sworn brother, how could you harm him?"
Sikong Feiyu's eyes became moist, with tears welling up in his eyes.
"Princess."
Cao Xuan's heart was trembling, his eyes were red, and he was filled with regret.
At this time, Fei Xin's sharp eyes were like a sharp sword pointing straight into Cao Xuan's heart, and he shouted: "Cao Xuan, do you still want to quibble?"
"You were the one who inflicted the poison, and it was you who harmed the Marquis."
"Where did Wan Rujue come from? You didn't recruit it from the real facts!"
Fei Xin deserves to be the Marquis's wife. At this moment, her strong aura is clearly on display.
Not only did Cao Xuan feel scared and dodge his eyes, Feng Wuji couldn't help but move his face slightly.
Sure enough, no one in a high position can save fuel.
Even though Mrs. Feixin is a female streamer.
Think about it too.
The Marquis of Shanyin has been ill for such a long time, and Cao Xuan secretly caused mischief. If she was incompetent, the Marquis's mansion would have been in chaos long ago.
"I……"
Cao Xuan was a little hesitant at first, but after meeting Fei Xin's eyes, he was instantly timid.
"It's Fushanluo!"
"Fu Shanluo gave me all the violence, and he also asked me to poison him."
Cao Xuan lowered his head and did not dare to face Fei Xin, and said in pain: "It's just madam, I really didn't want the Marquis' life at first. Fu Shanluo just said that Wan Rujue's poison will make the Marquis depressed for a period of time.
That way I will have better opportunities to perform..."
At this moment, Cao Xuan knew that he was no longer worthy of being the sworn brother of Shanyin Marquis, and he no longer addressed Shanyin Marquis and his wife Fei Xin as eldest brother and sister-in-law.
After a pause, he continued:
"This is also true. Ever since Mr. Hou was hit by Wanrenjue, his mental state has not been as good as before. I just feel relieved and thought that after a while, I can give Mr. Hou the antidote."
"But who would have thought, later on, the Marquis's body became weaker and weaker, and I realized something was wrong, so I wanted to ask Fushanluo for the antidote, but Fushanluo said that there is no antidote for Wanli, and I fired my bow without an arrow to turn back.
!”
Cao Xuan burst into tears, and it could be seen that he was indeed in pain at this moment.
"Fushanluo, Fushan clan?"
Feng Wuji frowned slightly, and a trace of doubt arose in his heart.
He and the Fushan clan have a huge hatred.
He was the one who killed Fushan Mang!
The former dean of Fenyan Academy, Fushan Xiujiu, always wanted to kill Feng Wuji and avenge his grandson.
The Fushan clan will definitely not let go of this hatred!
Feng Wuji also didn't expect that he would meet people from the Fushan clan in this royal capital.
It’s really a narrow road for enemies.
This is getting more and more interesting!
Fei Xin and others were also surprised by the name Fushanluo.
The Fushan Clan, although not as powerful as the Shanyin Marquis Mansion in the Longyuan Dynasty, was still a prominent hidden family.
Of course they have heard of it.
only……
It is difficult for them to connect the Fushan clan with the Shanyin Marquis Mansion.
After all, these are two unrelated forces.
To take a step back, even if there is a conflict between the two, it will be the Shanyin Houfu who uses the power of the dynasty to deal with the Fushan clan.
Where did the Fushan clan get the courage to take the initiative to attack the Marquis of Shanyin?
At this time, Feng Wuji asked again: "Who is Fu Shanluo from the Fushan clan?"
"Fu Shanluo is one of the four elders of the Fushan clan, ranking third and also known as the three elders of Fushan."
Although Cao Xuan was gnashing his teeth with hatred for Feng Wuji, now that he was exposed, he could only answer truthfully.
"So, the old man has remembered it."
"It is said that the Fushan clan has an elder who is good at the evil poison technique. He is not in the family all year round, but wanders around the world in order to practice the evil poison technique. His whereabouts are uncertain. Is this the Fushan Luo you are talking about?"
Weng Xi said suddenly.
"Yes, that's him."
"This person is very evil!"
Cao Xuan nodded, and the image of the floating mountain falling appeared in his mind, and he was still frightened.
"This person does have some strength, and he practices evil poison techniques, so he is really difficult to deal with."
Weng Xi looked solemn.
Madam Fei Xin asked Cao Xuan: "As far as I know, there is no enmity between the Fushan family and the Marquis. Why did Fushan Luo do such a vicious thing to the Marquis?"
Cao Xuan looked hesitant.
Fei Xin immediately scolded: "Now that it has happened, you still want to hide it?"
Cao Xuan gritted his teeth, no longer hesitating, and said: "Madam, it is true that the Hou Mansion and the Fushan clan have no grudges. The reason why Fushanluo dealt with the Marquis was not because of grudges, but... because of a painting.
"
"That painting is in the hands of the Marquis."
"I originally wanted to steal it, but the Marquis regarded the painting as a treasure and attached great importance to it, so I had no chance to do it."
"so……"
Cao Xuan was about to speak but stopped.
"Just for a painting, you actually teamed up with outsiders to murder the Marquis!"
Fei Xin was so angry that he was shaking all over.
"For me, Fushanluo is not an outsider."
"When I was young, I went out for training and encountered dangerous situations. He saved my life!"
"What's more, once the Marquis dies, everything in the Marquis's mansion will be mine! A true man should dominate the world and make contributions. How can he live under others for a long time and do nothing!"
Cao Xuan vomited blood, his eyes full of determination.
Now that there is no possibility of a comeback, he doesn't bother to hide it.
Hearing this, Feng Wuji couldn't help but sneer.
"It's really ridiculous!"
"Fushanluo is kind to you, but how innocent is the Marquis?"
"In the final analysis, it's just ambition, and I have to find a high-sounding reason!"
"I……"
Cao Xuan opened his mouth, subconsciously wanting to argue, but was speechless in the end.
What Feng Wuji said was all true, he was just trying to hide it.
Madam Fei Xin and Sikong Feiyu were so angry that they were shaking all over.
Is this the reason why Fushanluo dealt with Lord Hou?
Unfortunately, the poisoner is still Cao Xuan!
"Master Hou, you don't know people well!"
Feixin said sadly.
Cao Xuan lowered his head, not daring to face Fei Xin.
Feng Wuji said coldly: "Last question, where is Fushan Luo now?"
