After leaving the waiter at home, Gan Song became more cautious.
Although she usually doesn't talk much, but now that the waiter comes over, she doesn't even want to show up during meals.
Wen Qingzhu did not reveal his identity, but arranged for Feitian to bring her food.
After finishing the meal, Beidou and Feitian kept vigil all night without Wen Qingzhu's instructions.
Zuo Bingning couldn't sleep. She originally wanted to talk to Wen Qingzhu, but when she turned her head, Wen Qingzhu's breathing was long and calm.
In desperation, she had no choice but to hold it in.
Time slowly reached midnight, and there was indeed movement outside the tent.
Zuo Bingning suddenly woke up, and when she was about to stand up, she was grabbed by Wen Qingzhu and whispered: "Don't move, Beidou will take care of the matter outside!"
"Can Beidou solve it?" Zuo Bingning was still worried. She had spent more time with the Xiongnu than Wen Qingzhu, so she was naturally more afraid of the Xiongnu.
Wen Qingzhu held her down: "Not only Beidou is outside, Feitian and his sister will also go out. When it comes to using poison, no one is better than Gan Song."
After listening to her words, Zuo Bingning slowly calmed down.
The movement outside became louder and louder, and suddenly there were several muffled hums, and the sounds disappeared.
After waiting for about half an hour, there was no movement from outside.
Zuo Binning breathed a sigh of relief and was about to say something to Wen Qingzhu, but found that Wen Qingzhu fell asleep again.
But thinking about how Wen Qingzhu seemed to wake up before her before, Zuo Bingning felt that maybe she was pretending to sleep.
So he pushed Wen Qingzhu gently, and what he got was Wen Qingzhu's confused reply: "Go to sleep, it's really okay, Beidou is really powerful..."
Zuo Bingning had no choice but to say nothing, turned around and started trying to fall asleep.
When voices came from outside, Zuo Bingning turned around and found that Wen Qingzhu had already stood up, and she quickly got up as well.
When I came outside, I saw the old man from yesterday standing outside the door, with several people following him.
Wen Qingzhu was standing at the door, talking to them.
"Last night, bandits also attacked my side, but they were repulsed by my people. There are no injuries so far. Are two more dead on your side?"
The old man nodded: "It's still the same situation as the kid yesterday, so I wanted to come over and ask about the waiter. Since he's fine, there's nothing wrong with me."
Wen Qingzhu was silent for a moment: "Don't you plan to report this matter?"
"There is something going on in Tianying City now. The second prince is in a state of distress. How dare we bother him with such a trivial matter."
The old man shook his head, looking very helpless.
Someone standing behind the old man interjected: "Isn't there an adult here? They were fine last night, can't they help us?"
"Yeah, yeah! Why can't they help us!"
"That's right! The waiter is still doing things for them!"
"They can't just leave!"
Things were going more and more strange, and Wen Qingzhu's expression turned cold.
The old man yelled loudly while leaning on his cane: "This is our business and has nothing to do with adults! Why don't you get out of here!"
Wen Qingzhu felt a little interested as he watched them singing in harmony.
You must know that the Huns always come directly, but today they seem to be suffering miserably.
The young people behind the old man argued up and down, but finally fell silent.
Throughout this, Wen Qingzhu never said a word.
The old man bowed to express his apology. Wen Qingzhu quickly helped him up, thought about it and said, "Actually, there is no way at all, but this method is a bit desperate."
"My lord, just say it." The old man was very excited. He didn't expect Wen Qingzhu to be willing to help them.
Wen Qingzhu glanced at the crowd behind the old man and said, "Let's see, there are too many people here. You let them go back first. If anything happens, I will discuss it with you. It is not good for many people to know about these things."
"Okay." The old man could feel that Wen Qingzhu really wanted to help them.
After waving everyone to leave, Wen Qingzhu led the guests to his tent.
During this period, some people were worried and wanted to follow. Under Wen Qingzhu's eyes, the old man still asked them to retreat.
After sitting down in the tent, Zuo Bingning brought some tea and stood behind Wen Qingzhu.
The old man glanced at her but said nothing.
Wen Qingzhu said directly to him: "Old man, to tell you the truth, the person who came to my place yesterday to do something was actually not very powerful, but he was quite accomplished in using poisons, especially some common poisons used by the Xiongnu. Experience.”
"That's not quite right. There are very few people in the Huns who know how to heal, and even fewer people can use poison. Most people are poisoned by accidental ingestion, or they don't notice the poison around them. Only a few people can poison, and It’s still very rough, I’ve thought about what happened yesterday, and it doesn’t feel like it was done by the Huns, but rather like it was done by the Qi people!”
The old man touched his beard and looked very solemn.
Wen Qingzhu fell silent. The fact that the old man could see this showed that he was still somewhat capable.
She then asked: "Does the old man also know medical skills?"
The old man laughed out loud: "My skills are gained from decades of experience. It's not a medical skill at all. At most, it can cure some headaches, brain fever, bandage trauma and so on."
"But the old man is still very powerful. You can tell that yesterday's problems were still different from ordinary people." Wen Qingzhu praised him sincerely.
The old man pondered for a moment and said, "This is just my opinion. You said this is a person who is very powerful in using poison. What do you mean, it's our people who did it?"
"Well, I say that because I found evidence here." Wen Qingzhu turned around and asked Zuo Binning to bring a cloth bag.
Putting it on the table, Wen Qingzhu slowly opened it, and there was a broken sword blade inside.
Wen Qingzhu handed it over to the old man: "Look, my people left a section of the knife used by the people who came here yesterday. The old man is well-informed. Can you see where this knife comes from?"
The old man picked up the dagger and looked at it carefully. The more he looked at him, the more solemn his eyes became.
Seeing that he seemed to have seen something, Wen Qingzhu asked: "I don't want to say too much. This sword is definitely not something that Qi Ren can have, so I can be so sure."
The old man put down the knife and said after a long time: "This knife is indeed not something that Qi people can have."
"Does the old man know where this knife comes from?" Wen Qingzhu asked.
This time, the old man raised his head and looked at her: "Don't you know, sir?"
Wen Qingzhu laughed: "I really don't know, so I came to ask the old man."
"It's the sword of the Asan tribe."
The old man finally said it, and Wen Qingzhu was not surprised. With such ability to use poison, and with excellent weapons and equipment, it was not something that ordinary Huns could do.
After careful calculation, if the matter occurred here in Tianying City, it must not be the second prince.
That was either the fourth prince or the sixth prince.
Now that the fourth prince has just moved out, and now he wants to stabilize the tribe in Bailang Mountain, he definitely has no time to take care of things here.
So only the Sixth Prince had this leisurely mind.
Wen Qingzhu's face relaxed: "It seems that the old man has also seen the origin of this knife. Now I have thought clearly. I can't afford to offend the Sixth Prince, so I will go to the city as soon as possible. As for outside the city, the old man can wait. Wait for an opportunity, the opportunity for the second prince to leave the city."
"Will the second prince leave the city at this juncture?" The old man didn't believe it.
Wen Qingzhu looked at him deeply and said: "Don't worry, old man, you know better than me what kind of person the second prince is. He is not a person who lives in a turtle shell."
After sending the old man away, Wen Qingzhu sat at the table and looked at the short knife on the table.
Not long after, Tudan came in with Beidou.
Wen Qingzhu then stood up and asked, "Is your injury okay?"
Beidou shook his head. Wen Qingzhu knew that he would not be paranoid, so he asked him to sit down.
Feitian came in and saw Wen Qingzhu nodding towards him, so he went to take the waiter out.
The waiter, who had just woken up, was still dazed and obviously still a little uncomfortable with it.
He looked at the people in the tent and felt as if he had woken up too late: "I-could I have overslept?"
Wen Qingzhu called him to come and sit down: "Come and sit down, there is something I need to tell you."
The waiter came over and sat down anxiously, always feeling that something big had happened.
As expected, Wen Qingzhu told him the news that someone had died outside.
The waiter was so shocked that he broke into a cold sweat. Among the two people who died last night, one of them was an acquaintance of his.
Plus the one at the beginning, that’s two people!
Wen Qingzhu watched his expression change, and when he saw that the heat was about the same, he asked: "Xiao Er, tell me, who brought you into this job of being a middleman?"
"Yes... yes..." Xiao Er didn't think about it for a while.
Wen Qingzhu comforted him and said, "Don't worry, think slowly. I'm not in a hurry, but it's obvious that you are being watched, so you stay here and don't leave."
The waiter nodded repeatedly, but he asked again the next second: "Will my second uncle be okay?"
"He is currently in the city and should not be affected." Wen Qingzhu said carefully. According to her news, those people should also go to the city.
Wen Qingzhu took Tudan to look around the military camp, and now the news of constant deaths was everywhere.
Most people were looking for ways to get into the city, and Wen Qingzhu could only shake his head regretfully.
The city won't be that safe now.
Maybe it will be more serious than it is now.
In the afternoon, Zuo Bingning came over on horseback and shouted from a distance: "My lord! My lord!"
Wen Qingzhu quickly brought Tu Dan forward, while Zuo Binning got off his horse and said quickly: "It's Lu Ce, he has news! He said that the second prince killed an old minister of the late king this morning! Now the palace is in chaos."
"It's okay! Follow me to the entrance first." Wen Qingzhu immediately followed Zuo Bingning back.
It was soon discovered that the entrance and exit had been completely blocked.
Wen Qingzhu returned to his tent and soon discovered that his neighbors were packing their things.
Obviously many people have received the news and are preparing to flee here.
She entered the tent, and Feitian immediately came forward: "Sister's poison has taken effect! Are we going to follow the trend and leave now?"
"No! Let's go to the city!" Wen Qingzhu made a decision immediately.
Feitian and Beidou are both people who obey orders, so they have no objections.
Gan Song wanted to say something, but unfortunately she knew that she was not trusted now and did not dare to speak randomly.
In the end, only Zuo Bingning was left. She had a good relationship with Wen Qingzhu and asked bluntly: "Why do we go to the city?"
"Of course I'm going to help the second prince solve his major problem!" Wen Qingzhu smiled.
They waited patiently until noon, when the entrance and exit were finally opened.
People kept leaving the city, and the situation was too turbulent.
It was obvious that the people on the periphery were panicking. The place where Wen Qingzhu and the others lived was not too bad. It was not in a very central location, so they would not be bumped into by the crowd.
After about two hours, the flow of people was much less.
Wen Qingzhu soon felt that the army was about to move, so he quickly took Zuo Bingning and others to pack their things and go to the capital immediately.
At the entrance, someone who looked like a general asked, "Why are you in the capital at this time?"
"This is our token." Wen Qingzhu said nothing, only handed over the token.
