The poisonous woman is frivolous, please be gentle with me, Your Highness.

Chapter 48: Not Death from Poisoning

"It's the Third Prince! The Third Prince is here! Something like this happened at the Herbal Medicine Shop, the Third Prince must be here to take charge of the matter for us!"

"Yes, our God of War is here. Now those who take human lives lightly will be punished!"

"Ahhh, the person I admire the most, the Third Prince seems to be more imposing than the last time I saw him."

"Hey... look, why is he walking towards the owner of the herbal medicine shop..."

"Yes, and why do I feel that the Third Prince doesn't seem to be here to deal with her, but rather..."

……

"What's the matter? This herbal medicine shop is funded by me! If something happens to you, do you plan to handle it yourself?
"He looked at Bai Qianxi and found that the woman showed no signs of anything unusual except for her initial surprise, so he shifted his gaze to Zheng Zheng.

"Mr. Zheng, long time no see!"

When Zheng Zheng's name was called, he felt as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake. The fear of being dominated by Ye Beiyi in the past was vivid in his mind. His legs went weak and he knelt on the ground with a plop. "Your subordinate, I greet your Highness. I didn't know you were coming. I hope you will forgive me for not coming to greet you!"

"Get up. It's okay to atone your sins, but you're still in shackles!" Ye Beiyi suddenly spoke.

"The shackles... the shackles... are on!"

"Very good!" Ye Beiyi raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Zheng Zheng, which almost made him kneel down again. Then he heard him say again, "Since you have brought it, then let me torture you!"

"What!" Zheng Zheng was confused and thought he had heard it wrong!
Ye Beiyi's expression became even colder, "Why, aren't you going to arrest the people from the herbal medicine shop? Unfortunately, I saw that Miss Bai Wu was good at pharmacology, so I invested in the herbal medicine shop!
So... I am from the Herbal Medicine Shop! "

There was another thump, and Zheng Zheng knelt on the ground in fear. "Your Highness, please forgive me! I didn't know that this herbal medicine shop was yours, otherwise I would never dare to come here even if I was beaten to death!"

"The herbal medicine shop belongs to her. I am just investing to get a share of the profits! But you are an official, and it is natural for you to seek justice for the people! How can you say that you won't come if you know it's me? What? Are you used to doing this kind of thing!"

"I don't dare!"

"Whether you dare or not, whether you do it or not, it's up to the people to decide. Since you want to investigate the case, and you don't want to take me to the government office, then find a coroner to investigate here!"

As he spoke, Ye Beiyi sat on the chair that Shisan had brought over.

Then he looked at the other chair beside him and waved to Bai Qianxi, "You are blocking my view."

Bai Qianxi looked at his awkward expression and didn't bother with him, so she sat down as well.

Zheng Zheng looked at the two people's casual appearance, and did not dare to say anything due to the pressure. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and waited for the coroner to arrive.

The people around were so frightened that they dared not speak. They all knew that although the Third Prince Ye Beiyi, the God of War, loved his people like his own children, he was not interested in women and was even extremely cruel to those who approached him.

But now it seems that he has a very good relationship with Bai Qianxi, and they even opened a herbal medicine shop together. Look at the occasional eye contact between the two.

This doesn't seem like the rumor at all!
And who said that the owner of this herbal medicine shop is an unfavored concubine!

Maybe she was a concubine, but considering her relationship with the Third Prince, how could she not be favored? No wonder so many noble families came to congratulate her on the opening day!

Of course, rather than caring about this kind of family background, they are more concerned about whether this person died from eating medicinal food!
Soon the coroner arrived!
"Greetings...Greetings to His Majesty the Third Prince, Greetings to Your Majesty!" The coroner was panting and it was obvious that he was running very fast.

"Get up and check it carefully!" Ye Beiyi waved his hand and took a sip of tea.

The coroner glanced at Zheng Zheng, but heard Ye Beiyi speak coldly, "I asked you to examine the body, but I didn't ask you to examine Mr. Zheng!"

After hearing this, not only the coroner, but also Zheng Zheng broke out in a cold sweat. The coroner squatted nervously, took out his tools and examined the body, occasionally glancing at Mr. Zheng.

Zheng Zheng secretly gave him a look, and the coroner stood up, walked to the two of them, and said, "Your Highness, this person has no external injuries on his body, and it is very likely that he died of illness or poisoning!"

Zheng Zheng couldn't help but stand up straight, and then asked the crying woman beside him, "Madam, I wonder if the deceased had any illness before his death!"

"No...my husband has always been in good health! Wuuuu...husband..." The woman couldn't help but cry out again.

What the two said caused an uproar in the crowd.

"It really is poisoning! It's all caused by this herbal medicine shop!"

"We beg His Majesty to help us! Capture the culprit!"

"...I beg Your Highness the Third Prince to make the decision!"

As the sound of conquest rang out, Ye Beiyi's eyes were terribly cold, "Do you know the consequences of lying in front of me?"

"The coroner has already come up with the results. I know that the Third Prince was deceived by the Bai family girl and invested in the herbal medicine shop. I am angry, but now the truth is out, please punish Bai Qianxi."

Zheng Zheng spoke with a righteous look on his face, and then he bowed deeply towards Ye Beiyi, also lowering his head to hide the pride in his eyes.

So what if he is Ye Beiyi? If he defends this woman like this now, it will become a handle for people to criticize him!
"Is the truth really out?" Bai Qianxi said in a cold voice. Then she gave a soothing look to Ye Beiyi who was about to get angry. Then she stood up and stood straight in front of Zheng Zhengdi.

Zheng Zheng, who had not yet resumed his movements, seemed to be saluting her at this moment.

"Master Zheng, please stand still and watch me teach your coroner how to perform an autopsy!"

Her attitude was not friendly, but it was not overbearing either. It was hard to find fault with her and one could only get angry.

Zheng Zheng was about to step forward, but was stopped by a look from Ye Beiyi.

Bai Qianxi walked to the corpse, threw the white cloth that was in the way aside, then bent down, and groped the top and back of the corpse with her white fingers.

Everyone was puzzled and surprised.

After a moment, Bai Qianxi's fingers moved to the back of the corpse's neck and touched a hard spot. Her eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of coldness and understanding, "Xiao Qi, the medicine box!"

Bai Qianxi took out a pair of special tweezers with pointed tips from the medicine box and looked at Thirteen who was standing beside her. "Please help me turn the dead man to his side!"

Zheng Zheng's face suddenly changed, "What are you going to do!"

"Of course it's to collect evidence!"

"you……"

"Lord Zheng, are you trying to stop the investigation?" Ye Beiyi's cold voice sounded again, and then he stood up. With every step he took, the pressure increased, making people feel suffocated.

But he ignored Zheng Zheng and walked straight to Bai Qianxi and said coldly, "Get out of the way!"

Bai Qianxi was stunned for a moment, shrugged helplessly, but still stood up, and pointed to the position behind the deceased, "Here!"

Then he stepped aside!
