Monument Yangmen

Chapter 693 Poison

Zhao Guangyi will understand the movement of the army based on the letters sent back every day. At the same time, he will decide which army is slow and needs to be accelerated, and which army is fast and needs to slow down.

At Zhao Guangyi's invitation, Yang Qi stepped into Zhao Guangyi's temporary command post.

Stepping into the door with one foot, looking at the busy people inside, and hearing the quarreling voices, Yang Qi was obviously a little dazed.

Then there was a rapid twitch of the corner of the mouth.

Why did Yang Qi have such a reaction?
That's because almost all the people in this temporary command post are civil servants.

Li Jilong is also there.

But looking at Li Jilong's posture, and Li Jilong's current status, it is obvious that he has no right to intervene in the command of the battle.

He was more like a loyal and loyal chief guard, and Chen Lin followed Zhao Guangyi closely on the left and right, never leaving each other.

Yang Qi took a careful look at this group of civil servants, and he really felt a little urge to button his eyes.

Except for the old man Zhao Pu, the rest of the people have basically never participated in any battles, and some of them have not even been to the battlefield in person.

It's just such a group of people who secretly make up military books, and command nearly a million troops to fight impassionedly on the surface.

Yang Qi felt a little ridiculous for no reason.

Although Zhao Guangyi invited Yang Qi to enter the temporary command post, it was obvious that he had no intention of using him.

On the east side of the room, there were three seats, and Zhao Pu occupied one of them, and he was sitting leisurely drinking tea on it, and occasionally secretly pinched the maid who was waiting for him by his side.

Zhao Defang sat on the seat in the middle, like a clay bodhisattva, sitting there upright, not drinking tea, nor molesting the maid, feeling like she lost her soul.

After seeing Yang Qi come in, Zhao Defang's eyes lit up obviously.

However, he soon recovered his appearance as a clay bodhisattva.

Although the two have plans behind their backs, they can't be too close at this time.

Zhao Pu saw Yang Qi, squeezed Gong'e beside him hard, and then called Yang Qi to sit down.

"Smelly boy, come and sit down."

After Yang Qi sat down, a maid brought tea and pastries, and waited on Yang Qi carefully.

Entering the city from outside the city, Yang Qi had been away for a long time, and he was indeed a little thirsty. He picked up the teacup and blew away the foam on it. Just as he was about to sip, he heard a soft hum.

So subtle that it's almost inaudible if you don't pay attention.

Yang Qi was taken aback, and cast a vague glance at Zhao Defang.

He can say with certainty that the humming just now came from Zhao Defang.

Yang Qi paused with the hand holding the teacup, and was stunned for a long time.

Why did Zhao Defang snort for no reason?
And when he was about to drink tea.

Yang Qi subconsciously remembered the vial that Shen Lun had given him.

Drugged?
Yang Qi narrowed his eyes, stood up calmly holding his teacup, and walked in front of Zhao Pu.

He respectfully handed the tea to Zhao Pu, "The boy was abrupt, and he went to salute Zhao Xianggong. I think that when the boy was in Bianjing, he had always been helped by Zhao Xianggong, but now he has lost his courtesy in front of Zhao Xianggong. He deserves death.

The boy made a special cup of tea and apologized to Zhao Xianggong. "

When Yang Qi appeared suddenly, Zhao Pu was obviously taken aback.

Then he looked at the teacup in Yang Qi's hand and frowned slightly.

Afterwards, Zhao Pule chuckled and said, "You boy, now you know how to curry favor with this old man, it's too late."

While joking, Zhao Pu reached out and touched the teacup in Yang Qi's hand, then shook his head in disgust, "You're not real, you actually fooled this old man with a cup of herbal tea."

Herbal tea?

Hey!
The rim of this cup is still hot to the touch, how could it be herbal tea.

The old guy is well-informed, and probably saw something from the cup...

It seems to be [-]% accurate, there is medicine in this tea!
No wonder Zhao Defang sat there motionless like a clay bodhisattva, not touching the tea and pastries on the table.

Zhao Guangyi!Your uncle!

Yang Qi scolded Zhao Guangyi secretly in his heart, but apologized to Zhao Pu with a smile on his lips, "It's my fault, it's my negligence."

Yang Qi hurriedly beckoned to Gong'e who was waiting on him, "Go get a drink."

Gong'e just took the teacup from Yang Qi's hand.

I heard Zhao Pu say quietly: "The old man was full just now, and I can't drink any more."

Yang Qi nodded and waved at Gong'e, "Go down first, I'll call you later."

Gong'e left.

Zhao Pu and Yang Qi chatted awkwardly without saying a word.

Zhao Defang, who is a clay bodhisattva, occasionally interjects a sentence or two.

Yang Qi sat on the bench in the temporary command post for a whole day.

Didn't leave until nightfall.

When I went out of the city gate and was about to go back to the camp where the Scarecrow and Zamahe warriors were stationed for a big meal, I was stopped by someone in a remote corner.

An ugly young eunuch pouring night fragrance.

When passing by Yang Qi, he lowered his voice and said, "Someone asked me to remind you, during this period of time, be careful when eating and drinking. When you are forced to be helpless, remember to carefully look at the signs on the cups and bowls. If the pattern is different from the human, it must be added."

When Yang Qi was about to ask a few more questions, the little eunuch had already left in a hurry pushing the Yexiang cart.

Before leaving, he also sent Yang Qi a sentence.

"There are more than meds in the palace..."

The implication is that there are many poisons in the palace.

There must be chronic poison in it.

At this juncture, Zhao Guangyi would definitely not kill Yang Qi all at once.

But slowly poison Yang Qi until the poison accumulates until Yang Qi becomes paralyzed, deaf, or foolish, then Zhao Guangyi can easily do whatever he wants to Yang Qi.

Yang Qi felt a chill run down his spine.

If it wasn't for Zhao Defang's risky reminder today, he would have almost died.

Zhao Guangyi's ruthlessness is really everywhere.

Yang Qi headed sullenly and rushed into the camp. After returning to the camp, he asked Peng Pai to secretly get a large amount of food and water to store in the camp. They are not allowed to drink anything from others, nor are they allowed to drink any alcoholic beverages given by others.

The clever Peng Pai immediately realized the problem.

While delivering food to Yang Qi, Peng Pai quietly placed a silver hairpin in front of Yang Qi.

While eating, Yang Qi glanced at the silver hairpin on the table, then shook his head.

Peng Pai frowned, and said suspiciously: "Someone wants to poison the young master, isn't the young master on guard?"

Yang Qi chewed the tendons in his mouth, and said lightly: "Besides the most common arsenic, it is difficult to test other poisons from this silver hairpin. If you don't believe me, you can find a few hard-boiled eggs to try."

Speaking of this, Yang Qi said with gloomy eyes: "The real solution once and for all is to kill the person who poisoned you, so as to avoid future troubles forever."
