Daughter's Poisoned Wife

Chapter 574 Fistful Mind (1)
Xiao Ze hurriedly tried to persuade him to stay: "Sir and the two uncles also know each other, let's stay and meet together, and I will toast you a few more glasses later."

Du Heng frowned when he heard this, and gave Xiao Ze a displeased look. Zhang Mujing also frowned when he heard this, and reproached him in a deep voice: "Ah Ze, how can you drink alcohol before you recover?"

Du Heng saw that Mr. said what he wanted to say first, so he followed suit and said: "Mr. is very right."

Xiao Ze scratched his head and smiled awkwardly, then said in a good-tempered manner: "I don't drink alcohol, why not replace wine with tea?"

After listening to Xiao Ze's words, the expressions of Zhang Mujing and Du Heng eased a lot, but Zhang Mujing still put on a serious face: "Don't eat too much tea, Ah Heng, I have recently researched a few new medicinal recipes for my teacher , write to you later, make it for A Ze to eat, it will definitely make him recover faster." Hearing this, Xiao Ze's feet softened, and he exaggeratedly shouted: "Thank you for your kindness, sir, I'm already healed, no need to make up any more !" Even tea is not allowed to eat more, and there is a new medicinal diet, ahh... such a life is so painful!

Seeing Xiao Ze's exaggerated playful expression, Du Heng pursed his lips and gave a shallow smile. Zhang Mujing clearly saw the warmth in his disciple's eyes, and also smiled slightly.He was willing to turn his affection into a heart of protection when he saw that Xiao Ze could make Du Heng, who was as cold as ice and snow, show a sincere smile.

Just kidding, Zhang Mujing and Xiao Ze went to meet the two uncles from Miaodi together, and Du Heng also took people to the second gate to meet the two aunts.After welcoming the people from Miao Jiang into the palace and meeting with them, more than half an hour has passed.

Princess Ning brought Du Heng and Xiao Ling to entertain the female guests in the back house, and Prince Ning also received the two uncles in person. Du Heng's two cousins ​​had just seen their niece, and seeing her brightly dressed, her face was radiant. When we met last time, she grew a lot taller and gained a little weight. It can be seen that she lived very comfortably in Prince Ning's mansion, and the two of them felt more at ease. When they returned to Miaojiang, they reported to their grandmother carefully. Also to reassure grandma.

Du Heng's eldest cousin was more careful. He noticed that his nephew and son-in-law's complexion was not so good, and his stature was a little thinner, but he looked pale and thin, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness. "My niece and son-in-law don't look very well, but what's wrong?" The eldest cousin was worried about the happiness of his niece, so he asked directly in a hurry.

Prince Ning felt a little embarrassed when he heard this, but Xiao Ze didn't take it to heart. He sat on the chair and said with a smile, "Back to uncle, my son-in-law was assassinated a month ago, but now he is safe, but he lost some blood at that time." A lot, I can't make up for it for a while, so my face is a little pale, and Ah Heng said that it will fully recover after another month of raising it."

"Assassinated?" The two cousins ​​immediately straightened up, with a look of hostility flashing in their eyes. The people in Miaojiang are the most protective, especially for Du Heng, a poor child who has suffered so much since childhood. They are even more protective. Otherwise, they would not have left Daliang only half a year before coming here to give Du Heng a birthday gift. You must know that the distance between Miao Jiang and Daliang is not close, and with the time to prepare the gift, it is estimated that the Queen Mother Miao and the others have just returned. Miao Jiang began to prepare.

"Niece and son-in-law, have you ever caught the assassin and the mastermind behind it?" the eldest cousin asked with a cold face, not hiding his anger.

Prince Ning frowned slightly. The inside story of Xiao Ze's assassination was really not for outsiders to know, but if he didn't say anything, he would feel sorry for the two in-laws who traveled thousands of miles. The reason why they got angry was because of their love for their niece. heart of.

Seeing this, Xiao Ze immediately said: "Uncle, the assassin was already captured alive, but at that time the son-in-law was seriously injured, and we were short of manpower on the Zhuangzi, so the thief took advantage of the opportunity and sneaked into the Zhuangzi and used corpse-resolving water on the assassin. Cut off all clues."

"Corpse water? Is it something that can completely dissolve a corpse?" asked the uncle with a frown.

Xiao Ze remembered that Du Heng once told him that there is a poison in Miaojiang called Xigu Powder, the effect is almost the same as that of the corpse water, maybe there is a relationship between the corpse water and the bone powder, so he explained: "My son-in-law once heard Ah Heng say that the medicinal effects of Huashi Water and Xigu Powder are very similar. I don't know if there is some origin."

The faces of the two cousins ​​changed when they heard the word "Cei Gu San". The second cousin looked at the eldest cousin, who nodded after thinking for a moment, and said solemnly, "Second brother, tell me." The second cousin's Daliang language was better, and it was easier for him to explain Xigu Powder.

The second cousin nodded, and said in a deep voice, "Ceigu powder is an extremely vicious poison. Fifty years ago, after the death of the only Xiadong black priest who mastered the formula of Xigu powder, no one in Miaodi could make it." When they came out, only Xiadong Miao Wang still had half a bottle of bone erosion powder left in his hand. Ten years ago, the black priest on the left side of Xiadong took in an apprentice, Ah Hen, and taught him all the skills of voodoo. During the Fire Jumping Festival, the black priest on the left side of the hole wanted to plant Gu for Ah Hen and passed on the position of the black priest to Ah Chi, but Ah Hen suddenly disappeared, and no one knew his whereabouts. Later, it was vaguely rumored that Ah Hen had rebelled. Shan, and stole the only half bottle of bone erosion powder. According to Ze'er just now, the corpse water is most likely made with bone erosion powder. If it is true, it must be Ah Hen who came to Daliang, and Right in the capital."

Prince Ning and Xiao Ze were both taken aback. There is such a monster lurking in the capital, it really makes people feel uncomfortable sleeping and eating.But Zhang Mujing frowned thoughtfully when he heard this, and after thinking for a while, he asked aloud, "May I ask the two mountain masters, what kind of person is that Ah Hen, and how old is he?" Priest Miaodi asked It can be done by a man, so Zhang Mujing doesn't have to ask about his gender.The princes of the Miao family will each lead a mountain when they are adults, so Zhang Mujing calls him the owner of the mountain.

The first cousin and the second cousin thought about it carefully, and then described in detail the description of Ah Hen.Following the two of them's detailed description, Zhang Mujing's complexion became more serious.Prince Ning saw it and asked aloud: "Mr. Zhang, do you know that Ah Hen?"

Zhang Mu nodded and said: "Go back to the prince, listen to the two mountain masters, that Ah Chi is most likely Xu Lihen whom I know."

"Xu Li? I seem to have heard of this surname somewhere before." When Prince Ning heard this rare surname, something seemed to flash through his mind, and his brows were tightly frowned.

Zhang Mujing said with certainty: "My lord must know that Xu Li's family was responsible for the massacre in Lindong Hutong that caused a sensation in the capital 25 years ago."

"Xu Li's bloody case? This king remembered it. But Xu Li's family has been wiped out, and now there will be survivors?" Prince Ning asked with a frown.Xu Li's family was originally a family of Xinglin in the capital, and they lived in Lindong Hutong for generations. There were seven imperial physicians in the family. I don't know who they offended. On a dark night with heavy rain 25 years ago, the total number of Xu Li's men, women, children and children 270 eight people were all killed at home.Because that day was the birthday of the old lady of Xu Li's family, all members of Xu Li's clan outside the capital also rushed back to the capital to celebrate their birthdays, so Xu Li's clan was wiped out and no one survived.At that time, the emperor was still a prince who had never left the palace to open a mansion. He had only heard a little about Xu Li's massacre and didn't know more about it.It's just that the follow-up process of this matter is very intriguing. Such a shocking case was left unsolved, and no one from top to bottom asked about it.
