Chapter 309 The Poisoner
Seeing Xiao Xiannong's innocent and argumentative expression, even Xiao Heng felt angry and funny.

"Do you know exactly what you did? You made the decision without knowing anything clearly. Do you know that you almost killed your father?"

"Impossible, you are talking nonsense!"

"Why do you think my father has been in seclusion for half a year without seeing anyone? Why do you think my father has left his most important prince to go into seclusion now? How could he let go of state affairs if it is not a matter of life and death?"

Only now did Xiao Xiannong really start to doubt himself.

Xiao Heng said: "Tell me everything you know about the doctor, who recommended you, what you did there, and whether there are any medicinal roots left. The thinner the better."

Although Xiao Xiannong was a little reluctant, after all, the attitude of the fourth emperor brother clearly meant that he regarded him as the murderer of his father. But when it came to his father, he had to say that if the delay really led to some terrible outcome, he would definitely It is hard to escape the blame for death.

So that night, Xiao Xiannong racked his brains at Xiao Heng's place to trace back what happened more than half a year ago.

"I was recommended to go by the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance."

"Shang Shu of the Ministry of Finance? Are you sure? Did he tell you personally?" Xiao Heng frowned: "This is a serious matter, so you must speak carefully, otherwise it may cause irreparable losses."

Xiao Xiannong's eyes flashed and he bowed his head.

"I overheard it."

"..." Xiao Heng glanced at him feebly, feeling happy for nothing, thinking that there was finally substantial progress.

Xiao Xiannong continued to add: "That day I saw the ministers going to a wine shop for a party, so I followed them secretly on a whim. I heard them next door saying that they were under too much pressure and had a headache. Then the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue said that he found a man in the capital. A very effective miracle doctor..."

"So...you were eavesdropping?"

Xiao Xiannong nodded slowly.

"How dare you use the eavesdropping on my father?"

"I've tried it myself and it's really effective. Otherwise, I wouldn't have given my father the medicine."

"What are his characteristics? Have he ever told you anything about him?"

Xiao Xiannong shook his head: "I only go there for a short time every time, take the medicine and leave, and all he asks are questions about the disease."

"Do you have any medicinal roots?"

Xiao Xiannong shook his head: "But... the tube containing the medicine is still in my bedroom."

……

Xiao Xiannong stayed in Xiao Heng's mansion for a long, long time. At four o'clock in the middle of the night, Xiao Heng arrived at morning time before Xiao Xiannong was finally freed.

However, the imperial brother did not let him leave, and only told him to have a good rest here.

Where can Xiao Xiannong sleep?He tossed and turned, feeling more uneasy and frightened the more he thought about it, and finally sneaked away over the wall when no one was paying attention.

After leaving, Xiao Xiannong immediately went to the other hospital of the miracle doctor. A few months ago, there were apprentices of the miracle doctor in this hospital, but now the building is empty and there is nothing.

Seeing this, Xiao Xiannong was also confused.

His first reaction was that the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance had fooled him!

He couldn't wait to go to the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance to argue with him immediately and ask him why he framed him like this!However, after the impulse, he became silent again...

It’s not like the Minister of the Ministry of Finance told him this personally... Why should he blame others...

Xiao Xiannong was confused and thought about his father's appearance over and over again in his mind.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that my father at the banquet was just trying to keep his spirits up, and he... almost became a patricide.

Now that the imperial brother knows about it, his father will also know about it sooner or later. Can his father spare him if he knows about it?

Xiao Xiannong couldn't imagine it. He pursed his lips in fear, turned around and ran out of the imperial city towards his grandfather's military camp.

……

When Xiao Heng went to court, he also asked Wei Qiang to secretly go to Xiao Xiannong's palace. When he went to court, Wei Qiang lived up to expectations and found a small medicine pot.

Although there are no pills inside, there is still some powder left on the wall of the pot.

"Have someone send this bottle to Taihe Prefecture quickly."

"Yes." Wei Qiang bowed his hands and disappeared silently.

At this time, Wei Yan from the mansion quickly entered the palace and found Xiao Heng with a nervous look on his face.

"Sir, the Eighth Prince is missing."

"Gone?"

"Yes."

Xiao Heng couldn't help but frown, where could this guy go at this time?Was he caught by Xizuo or did he abscond out of fear of crime?

However, no matter which one it is, it is not a good thing.

"Send someone to retrieve him quickly, and remember to be careful not to alert others."

"Yes." Wei Yan also bowed his hands and stepped back.

Xiao Heng paced back and forth in the Jinluan Hall, his mind was engaged in a battle between heaven and man. After a while, he finally said: "If you let someone keep an eye on the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, report him immediately if there is any abnormality."

"Yes." Another shadow guard heard the voice and stepped back.

Xiao Heng looked into the distance with a heavy look. No matter what, it was always right to be on guard first. As for the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, he would not mess around as long as he made no mistakes, but if he had the slightest ambition, he would not let him go no matter what. .

Anyone who disrupts the Xiao family will be punished by everyone in the Xiao family's descendants.

……

About 20 days later, Wei Qiang, who went to Taihe Prefecture to have the medicine doctor examine the medicine pot, came back.

"Sir, the great witch doctor has confirmed that the powder in this medicine bottle is indeed a chronic poison. It will not cause any serious harm if taken in small amounts. However, its toxins will not be absorbed by the internal organs and will be accumulated in the internal organs. Over time, they will become poisonous. Human lives.”

Having said this, even a fool should understand that this is the real reason why Emperor Wuhou was poisoned.

No wonder Emperor Wuhou couldn't find out the details no matter how hard he checked.

I bet this man is his biological son.

Who could have imagined it?

"Sir, the saint also gave you a secret letter." Wei Qiang solemnly took out the letter hidden in his chest.

The letterhead has only five words:
【Capture Xiao Xiannong】

Seeing this Xiao Heng was a bit unexpected, but it was indeed reasonable.

It seems everything is destined.

He sighed and returned to the desk helplessly.

In fact, before that, he also received another secret letter from the east.

Xiao Xiannong appeared in Dongqi Camp of Dongdutong.

Xiao Xiannong, who he couldn't find in the imperial capital these days, has gone to Dongqi Camp.

He also negotiated with Dongdutong and wanted to summon Xiao Xiannong back privately, but Dongdutong refused.

The letter on the table at this time was that Dongdutong refused to let Xiao Xiannong return to the imperial capital.

The general content is that the situation in the imperial capital is strange. Until the situation is unclear, he will leave his grandson in the camp. Unless His Majesty leaves the country and returns to the capital, he will never let his grandson come back, lest he falls into someone else's trap.

As for Xiao Heng's request, foreign military orders will not accept it, not to mention that Xiao Heng does not have a tiger talisman.

All in all, the East Capital Unification Plan should not have been seen or heard.

……

Xiao Heng was having a headache when the sage's oral instructions arrived, telling him to capture Xiao Xiannong and return to the capital.

Now even if he wanted to kindly invite Xiao Xiannong back, he couldn't do it.
