Live Rescue the Villain: Watch My Brain in Love Online

Chapter 36 Eating Poisonous Mushrooms

The prince finally woke up.

This woman has turned against her!
He straightened his back slowly, and all the camouflage on his face faded away.

"Since this is the case, the prince will have a good talk with the emperor."

He glanced around, and at that moment, the aura of the superior rushed to the peak:
"It's reasonable for the emperor's uncle to hire an aunt, but Miss Qiao San has been pampered in the prime minister's mansion since she was five years old, until she reached the age of Ji, and in two months, she will be sixteen."

He smirked, grabbed the girl behind Jun Muxi, and said slowly, "Didn't the uncle show any kindness for the 11 years of nurturing?"

Qiao Qingqing slowly tightened the fingertips holding Jun Muxi's sleeve.

Why does he emphasize age so much?Five years at my aunt's house, ten years at the prime minister's house...

Could it be that this scumbag wanted to divide Jun Muxi's dowry into two, dividing it according to the number of years she lived?
In this way, two-thirds of Jun Muxi's dowry will go to the Prime Minister's Mansion!

Qiao Qingqing turned her thoughts based on her few experience in writing essays. As soon as this idea took shape, she hurriedly opened her mouth before the prince continued:

"My little mother once cured the empress dowager's stubborn illness, so that my father was appreciated by the royal family, and he was able to show his ambitions and become a prime minister. However, my father sent my little mother to the countryside and ignored her for so many years. These debts, How can he make up for it?"

"presumptuous!"

The prime minister raised his arm and was about to slap Qiao Qingqing's face, but she turned her head away.

"Why, you were poked in the sore spot by me, and you became angry from embarrassment?"

Qiao Qingqing embraced Jun Muxi's arms, pointed at Daddy's head without answering, "I'm in a hurry, he's in a hurry..."

The prime minister staggered, almost frustrated!

Qiao Qingqing walked to a safe place, shook Jun Muxi's sleeves, and pretended to pray:
"My lord, these debts and compensations have been cut and reconciled. His Royal Highness is right. The prime minister's mansion has indeed raised me for 11 years. If not, the lord will spend a fee and give the prime minister's mansion the lowest standard dowry as a thank you." ,Um?"

The girl frowned, soft and pleasant, but Jun Muxi couldn't hold back, and gave another short laugh.

He nodded, "Okay, it's all up to you."

"Thank you, Lord!"

Qiao Qingqing smiled, and raised her hand to wipe away the non-existent tears in the corners of her eyes.

On the other side, the prince's resolute face has long been shrouded in haze.

"Since that's the case, the crown prince wishes Miss Qiao San all the best in advance."

He clapped his hands, and a graceful maid walked into the hall with a plate of pastries.

Qiao Qingqing's heart sank to the bottom in an instant!

The smell of almonds drifted into her nostrils. Qiao Qingqing sniffed the salty scent, her throat seemed to be pinched by a pair of invisible hands, and she slowly began to have difficulty breathing.

"Qiao Qingqing, those who know the current affairs are heroes. Since you are looking for your own death, that prince, you don't have to worry about old love anymore!"

As he spoke, he smiled darkly, and slowly raised his brows:

"The prince remembers that sister Qiao loves almond cake the most. If you are really my sister Qiao, I will prove to everyone that you can eat this almond cake, or not, how about it?"

The aunt immediately turned pale, and she hurriedly waved her hands, "No, no, my girl can't eat almonds!"

"Can't eat almonds?" The prince was surprised, "This prince remembers that the disease of 'not being able to eat almonds' was brought from the mother's womb. I could eat almonds before, but now I can't eat them. What's the reason?"

"How do you prove that I ate well before?" Qiao Qingqing fought back not to be outdone.

The prince sneered, "Before Sister Qiao was five years old, the neighbors loved you very much. Who in the village never fed you almonds? You can tell if you have eaten almonds before, just ask someone to come over and ask."

Just as the aunt was about to continue her theory, Qiao Qingqing hurriedly pulled her behind to protect her.

She glanced at her anxious aunt. The swelling on her cheeks hadn't subsided, and the scratches on her forehead had just scabbed over.

At this moment, all the details in Qiao Qingqing's mind were strung together!
In the past, even if those villagers bullied my aunt, they would do so secretly, but last night they beat her openly. If there was no backing, which ordinary people would dare to kill her?
Seeing that she was silent, the prince raised the corners of his lips sullenly:

"Come here, invite the neighbors and folks who cared for Miss Qiao San into the prime minister's residence!"

Qiao Qingqing rolled her eyes speechlessly.

Will the people in the village take good care of her?

Heh, I'm afraid this scumbag prince has already sent someone to bribe all the young and old in a village, right?
Qiao Qingqing raised her eyes, and saw that the prince folded his arms confidently and looked down at her condescendingly, saying that it was a lie not to panic.

Just as she was turning her thoughts to think of countermeasures, Jun Muxi suddenly raised her hand and patted her on the shoulder:

"Don't be afraid."

Ok?
Qiao Qingqing subconsciously turned her head to look.

Why is Jun Muxi so calm?Could it be that he already knew about it and made arrangements in advance?
As expected of her man, he really has vision!
Seeing Jun Muxi's expressionless expression, Qiao Qingqing felt a little relieved.

Everyone waited for a long time, and the warm winter sun slanted around the branches and hit their shoulders obliquely.

Qiao Qingqing greedily looked at Jun Mu Xi who was in control of everything. For a moment, she even thought about the name of their child...

Just as she was immersed in her own imagination, a hasty announcement broke the silence in the room.

"His Royal Highness, it's bad, everyone in the village is dead!"

Dead... dead?

Qiao Qingqing's eyes widened!

Although these people bullied her since she was a child, but there are troublemakers in the poor mountains and rivers, and the punishment of missing arms and legs is enough, so they can't kill them all, right?

Looking at Jun Muxi's stern profile, Qiao Qingqing felt a chill suddenly rise from the soles of her feet and spread along her limbs.

She suddenly became afraid of Jun Muxi, so reckless about human life, could it be that after his rebirth, he really became a murderous demon without blinking an eye?
Her scrutiny made Jun Muxi somewhat astonished.

Soon, a look of innocence appeared on his eyebrows.

He turned his head, and slowly raised the eyebrows that flew across his temples in a silent inquiry.

Qiao Qingqing blinked and seemed to be saying, "Are you asking me? I know shit, didn't you do it?"

As if he understood Qiao Qingqing's response, Jun Muxi also shook his head slightly, as if to say, "It's not me."

Um?Who would that be?

The prince was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses:

"Check, let the prince check carefully inside and out! Such an act is simply vicious!"

The other party listened and did not respond.

The prince raised his voice again, "What are you still doing? The emperor broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people. Just investigate, the prince is the master, so you don't have to be afraid!"

As he spoke, he still didn't forget to cast a glance at Jun Muxi.

With that appearance, it seemed that Jun Mu Xi was the culprit.

The informer was silent for a while, then whispered, "Return to His Royal Highness, the villagers died of collective poisoning, the author has already experienced the corpse, and no one else committed the crime."

"...then someone must poison it!"

The prince took a step forward, with a sullen expression on his face, "Could it be that they are tired of living and poisoning themselves?"

The reporter kowtowed and said, "Last night, the villagers sat together and cooked a big pot of chicken stewed with sesame seeds. All men, women and children ate it. They... they ate poisonous sesame seeds..."
