In the imperial study room, the emperor's eyes were cold, "You mean, melons, fruits, wine, and water are not poisonous?"
The commander of the Imperial Guard nodded.
"Are the wine glasses and flagons ready for inspection?"
"Your Majesty, everything that Yang Shu has touched has been carefully examined by the imperial physician, and no poison was found in it."
The emperor narrowed his eyes, "Then where did this poison come from?"
"I'm still investigating." The commander of the imperial army bent down, "Yang Shu came into contact with too many people when he came to Zhenghe Palace."
The emperor waved the memorial and said in a cold voice, "I don't care what method you use, you must find this person for me."
"By poisoning the celebration banquet, he really doesn't see me or the Yan Kingdom in his eyes!" The emperor gritted his teeth with murderous intent.
All the resentment and fear towards Mr. Yang were placed on the person who poisoned him.
After receiving the emperor's words, the commander of the imperial army no longer had any worries and inspected the officials attending the banquet one by one.
Yang Shu acted quickly and asked He Jie to see him that day and asked him to wait for three days to see how Sun Ju entered the Ministry of Punishment.
Sun Ju was the county magistrate who colluded with the Zhao family, sealed the He family shop, and made He Jie's mother angry to death.
After circling the names, Yang Shu handed the paper to Pai Gow, "Send this list to the Ministry of Punishment and bring more people to be more fierce."
There are a total of fifteen names on the paper, most of which are related to Prince Xi's Mansion. Yang Shu circled ten, and Sun Ju was among them. He did not climb up to Prince Xi's Mansion, but how can a playboy vent his anger so accurately.
The head on the city gate has not yet been removed, and several petty officials and the Ministry of Punishments will not even send messages to Prince Xi's Mansion.
"Let the people outside know that I woke up and shouted that Guo Tao was responsible for the poison." Yang Shu said softly.
Too busy to take care of himself, King Xi had no intention of paying attention to Sun Ju and others.
A seventh-grade petty official in Jian'an can't even make a splash. No one even bothers to scan such a trivial matter, and there is no risk of being exposed at all.
"Yes." Pai Gow folded the paper and put it into his sleeve. Seeing that Yang Shu had no other instructions, he strode out.
"Your Majesty."
A gentle female voice came from outside the door.
Yang Shu raised his lips, but here he is. Although the angina poison can't kill him, it will definitely damage his body and he must make up for it.
The cooking skills of the chef in the house..., it's better to take medicine.
"Come in." Yang Shu put on his clothes and sat down at the table.
Xu Yueyao stepped inside with a cup of soup in hand.
"fragrant."
As soon as the soup cup was opened, Yang Shu sniffed, praised it repeatedly, picked up the soup spoon and filled a large bowl for himself.
"Be careful, it's hot." Seeing Yang Shu devouring the food, Xu Yueyao couldn't help but remind her.
"Sit down, the yam and pork ribs soup you make is much better than the chef in the house."
Yang Shu served Xu Yueyao a bowl and then ate it.
The joy in the young man's brows was real and clear. Xu Yueyao pursed her lips and smiled. Seeing this, it was really easy to be satisfied.
"I'll have to worry about you next."
After wiping his mouth, Yang Shu went to the desk and took out a piece of paper and handed it to Xu Yueyao, "It's not free. As long as the conditions are not strict, you just need to write it on the paper and I will honor it."
Xu Yueyao was slightly stunned. This person was becoming increasingly difficult to describe. Call him arrogant, and he knew how to pay. Call him polite. Xu Yueyao had not forgotten how she got to King Ding's Mansion.
"Is my elder brother okay?"
"He left Jian'an. I don't want people to pay attention to it, but I think it went smoothly."
Yang Shu poured a glass of water for Xu Yueyao, "Before departure, he hired ten guards and followed the escort agency. Even if he encounters bandits, he can deal with them."
"Do not worry."
Xu Yueyao nodded and stood up to put away the dishes.
"I asked Pai Gow to hire a teacher. He will teach at Tinglanxuan every day at midnight."
Xu Yueyao paused as she walked out.
The family declined, and the Xu family only provided for Xu Jingzhou. On weekdays, Xu Jingzhou taught Xu Yueyao how to read and write, but they had to take care of their livelihoods, and after all, their energy was limited, and Xu Yueyao could only read and write.
"With beauty accompanying me, this prince can also learn from it." Yang Shu said jokingly.
The history of this place is completely different from that of the earth. It is very necessary to hire a gentleman. Otherwise, if someone quotes scriptures, you will look confused and you will be very out of place.
The scariest thing is being scolded and thinking that people are praising you. This will be recorded in the history books in the future and how many people will be entertained.
Even if you scare a child, you won't be afraid of not being able to find a story. Take that Yang Shu, look at him. He just doesn't like reading. It's so miserable. Others point at his head and scold him, but he still sticks his teeth in silly joy.
Xu Yueyao didn't dare to look back, fearing that Yang Shu would tease her again, so she walked away with the bowl in hand, her eyebrows unknowingly bowed along the way.
The family's money was limited. No matter how much Xu Yueyao longed to study, she could not open the door. She thought it would be a shortcoming in her life. After all, her current age was not suitable for asking for a husband. What she should start preparing was the wedding dress.
Once you get married, studying becomes more out of reach.
"Your Majesty." Liu Yun walked into the room with a look of resentment on her face, "It's been a long time, but you're not hard-hearted, you just don't care about me!"
"You can't change what you like in the corner." Yang Shu walked slowly in the room to eat.
Liu Yun asked him, "Do I have any other pastimes?"
"What's the rush? You'll be busy later."
"The prince treats me with a layer of separation." Liu Yun's charming look faded and her tone was a little light.
Yang Shu stopped and corrected seriously, "It's not one layer, it's several layers."
Liu Yun's face darkened, "All men in the world are the same. When they pull up their pants, they don't remember the intimacy of having a good time."
Yang Shu smiled, Liu Yun was really feeling uncomfortable, so much so that she wanted to go to him to be jealous and pass the time.
"No wonder the second prince hasn't made any move yet. I'm afraid he thinks you are completely devoted to him."
Liu Yun stroked her fingers and raised her eyes, as charming as a fox, "The prince's words frightened the slave family. The body of the slave family was given to the prince."
"I'm just helping the second prince manage Yihonglou. Everything else is innocent." Liu Yun poked Yang Shu's chest, showing annoyance.
"Liu Yun, have you ever relied on the second prince for a moment?"
As soon as the words came out, Yang Shu shook his head. Liu Yun subconsciously believed in the assassination he arranged. Anyone who has true feelings would not make a decision so quickly.
Liu Yun looked at Yang Shu, her expression calming down little by little, "In front of a great cause, women are as light as catkins, and they are not worth fighting."
"The prince's words are more pleasant than those of the second prince, but one day, if my interests conflict with the prince's, you will take my life without mercy."
"Your Majesty, my loyalty depends on the power in your hands."
"If you die, I can sleep in someone else's bed that night." Liu Yun's eyes were as calm as autumn water.
Yang Shu raised his eyes slightly. Liu Yun had many sides, which could be changed in a blink of an eye. They were smooth and natural and difficult to distinguish, but only this side was real.
She doesn't believe in men, let alone sincerity.
Sitting down on the chair, Yang Shu spoke softly, "Liu Yun, you are not so afraid of me anymore."
Before the change, Liu Yun couldn't say a word like this.
