"Today, Director Lu is not here, so the villain is afraid of making mistakes. The food box of the lord and Wei Beihou was put into the box by the villain and the two deputy stewards, and handed it directly to the young master Xiao. And... no one took over. The villains are really wronged! I also ask the lord to make a clear inspection, and Xiao Sikou to make a clear inspection!"

A servant who was serving in the main hall raised his head timidly: "Also... it's not that no one took over."

Xiao Jin shouted angrily, "Come on! Who are you referring to!"

The man raised his head and glanced at Mo Qiaosheng beside Cheng Qianye.

The eyes of everyone in the hall converged on Mo Qiaosheng, and in front of everyone's eyes, only Xiao Xiu and Mo Qiaosheng were serving by Cheng Qianye's side, and they were the only ones who had touched the dishes.

At this moment, Xiao Xiu was poisoned and fell to the ground. Mo Qiaosheng became the most suspected person.

Mo Qiaosheng stood up in shock, and a bad feeling filled his heart.

One of the cooks in the crowd raised her head and said, "Yes, yes, what I saw was this person who took the food box from Young Master Xiao on the way. It must be because of him, just check him, this fact. It has nothing to do with me waiting."

He Lanzhen, who was standing behind Cheng Qianye, grabbed Mo Qiaosheng by the collar angrily and threw him to the ground.

The two armored servants stepped forward and suppressed his arms from the left and the right.

"It's not me! My lord! It's really not me!" Mo Qiaosheng struggled to raise his face and looked at Cheng Qianye.

Cheng Qianye hadn't spoken yet, Xiao Jin bowed his hands and said: "Master, please don't be emotional, this person is the most suspicious right now. If the truth is found out, it has nothing to do with him, and it will not be too late to return him to innocence."

Here, Weibei Hou Huayu led his own people directly, and said with a haha: "It seems that this is a private matter of the virtuous brother, and the old man is not inconvenient to disturb him any more, so he will retire first."

Cheng Qianye socialized with him and sent the person away. She watched Weibeihou leave with a disappointment over her back.

It seems that he wanted to poison me, and then failed, disappointed?

Cheng Qianye touched his chin and felt that his heart was still muddy.

She decided to first observe what was going on.

Several soldiers entered the hall in a hurry, one of them was holding a wooden box with a lock in his hand. Mo Qiaosheng looked at the box with a look of horror on his face.

It was the box in his closet for his personal belongings.

The soldier knelt down on one knee and held the wooden box.

Xiao Jin stepped forward with a calm face and opened the box whose lock had been cut off.

The lid of the box was opened, revealing a box of brilliant gold and a small porcelain vase.

There was an exclamation from the hall.

It is impossible for a slave to possess so much gold. Unless he did something shady.

Xiao Jin opened the bottle and gave it to the military doctor beside him.

The doctor compared the medicine in the bottle with the food on the table, and nodded to Xiao Jin.

The hall suddenly sounded the sound of rustling discussion.

"No, it's not me!" Mo Qiaosheng's eyes were red and he struggled.

He Lanzhen punched him to the ground and kicked him twice.

"It's been a long time since I saw you, the guy who charmed the lord, is not pleasing to the eye, it really isn't a good thing!"

Cheng Qianye stopped him.

Mo Qiaosheng was pressed to the ground, he desperately raised his head and looked at Cheng Qianye with an almost desperate look.

Cheng Qianye glanced at him reluctantly, and sighed helplessly.

She invited Yu Dunsu to step forward: "General Yu, take him down and imprison him. You guard it yourself."

He attached to Yu Dunsu's ear and whispered, "Don't let anyone approach him before I come, and don't hit him."

Hearing Cheng Qianye's words, Mo Qiaosheng's face seemed to lose all hope for a moment, he gave up his resistance and let Yu Dunsu escort him out.

After the chaos, Cheng Qianye returned to his living room.

Sitting at the table, she slowly sipped the tea in her hands, sorting out the thoughts in her mind.

Xiao Jin came in from outside the house and bowed in salute.

"How is Xiaoxiu?" Cheng Qianye asked.

"The doctor said that fortunately, the amount of poison he ingested was very small, and the lord gave him vomiting in time. It should be fine. After taking the medicine, it will be fine in a few days."

Cheng Qianye nodded, as a matter of letting go.

Xiao Jin asked again: "That Mo Qiaosheng, please let the Lord publicize, what should be done?"

Cheng Qianye looked at him for a moment, and then sneered: "Do you really think this is what he did?"

"Why does the lord ask this question?" Xiao Jin asked in surprise.

Cheng Qianye sank his face, looked at Xiao Jin without saying a word, and watched Xiao Jin gradually panic.

"No. With your cleverness, you can see at a glance that there is something tricky in this matter." Cheng Qianye said slowly.

"Mo Qiaosheng is someone close to me. If he wants to poison me, there are so many opportunities. How can he commit murder in public and keep evidence of his crime in the house?"

"You and Zhang Fu can easily think of someone else who poisoned me. But neither of you told me, why?"

Chapter 19

"I..." Xiao Jin blushed and knelt down to plead guilty, "Xiaguan did realize that there was something wrong with this matter, but firstly, the evidence was conclusive, and there was no way to refute it. Second, Xiaguan also thought about stabilizing the situation first, so that he could investigate slowly. The man behind the scenes."

Cheng Qianye interrupted him, "One more thing, you are afraid that Qiaosheng and I are too close, and you will know my secret by accident. So I thought in my heart that it would be wrong to make a mistake, and take the opportunity to eliminate it.

It's okay to drop him. Is it or is it not? "

Xiao Jin was shocked: This is just a hazy idea in my heart, and I don't even have a clear idea about it myself.

Cheng Qianye sat on the top and looked at him indifferently.

For the first time, Xiao Jin experienced the majesty that belongs to the superior from this lord. He bowed his head to the ground and sincerely pleaded guilty, "I know that I am wrong, and I hope your lord will forgive you."

"Although the minister did have this thought, if the truth can be found out, it is impossible for the minister to waste his life and let innocent people die in vain. I hope the lord believes in the heart of the minister."

After a long time, Xiao Jin even felt a cold sweat on his back before he heard Cheng Qianye's voice above his head.

"Get up, forget it this time. I hope you don't do such a thing that disappoints me again. You are still excusable, that bastard Zhang Fu, I won't let it go easily this time."

"Come on, follow me to see Qiaosheng first."

...

Mo Qiaosheng was chained in a cold prison cell, and the moonlight cast mottled light and shadow on his body through the bars of the iron window.

General Yu Dunsu, who was guarding him, was mild-mannered and did not rude him. He just silently held the knife and stood at the door of the cell.

Except for the initial blow from He Lanzhen, no one had beaten him again, and no one had used any punishment against him.

But Mo Qiaosheng felt more painful than any previous injury or punishment.

Pain from the inside out.

Ah Feng's words are still in my ears,

"Don't give your heart to the master easily. Otherwise, only more embarrassment awaits you."

Mo Qiaosheng closed his eyes.

Maybe I shouldn't be delusional about this kind of happiness at all.

Cheng Qianye's gentle face appeared repeatedly in front of him.

When he was outside the city gate, he caught a glimpse of the man sitting on the high car, almost shining in the sun. He looked over lazily and smiled at himself.

...

"Qiaosheng?"

Mo Qiaosheng vaguely heard someone calling him, and raised his head blankly.

A real smile appeared in front of him, gradually overlapping with the imaginary face, and it became clear.

Lord.

My lord, he came to see me.

Cheng Qianye looked at Mo Qiaosheng who was imprisoned by chains in front of him.

But it was the middle of the night that shut him up, and this sapphire made him despair and lifeless.

He heard his own voice and looked in disbelief. He raised his head and saw himself. The circles of his eyes instantly turned red, showing a look of sadness and despair.

Cheng Qianye stretched out his hand, touched his messy hair, bent down, approached his face, and asked gently, "Qiaosheng, tell me, did you do it?"

Mo Qiao's gray eyes lit up with Liu Ying, he opened his mouth slightly and lowered his head.

It took a moment to say a word softly.

A sentence that he said countless times in his childhood nightmares, but was never believed by anyone.

"Not me. Master, you trust me. Trust me once."

This time, he heard the answer he had only dreamed of.

"Since Xiaomo said no, then no."

While the man touched his hair, he gently filled these words into his heart, word by word, into his scarred and dilapidated heart.

"My lord, the evidence of this crime is conclusive, how can you be so gullible?" Yu Dunsu clasped his fists in remonstrance.
