By the way, Yu Wenmo went out of the city to attack Jianghuang's camp, and it was time for two sticks of incense, and Yu Wenmo returned with his victory.
When the people in the city heard about this, they all started singing and dancing. Nan Guozhen led all the soldiers out of the city gate to welcome Yu Wenmo's triumphant return.
After Yu Wenmo returned from Shengzhang, the Thirteenth Young Master asked Yu Wenmo again if there was any movement on the battlefield.
Yu Wenmo recalled today's battlefield in detail and didn't feel there was anything wrong on the battlefield.
"I'm sorry for being stupid, but I really can't see what the emperor is doing."
After hearing what Yu Wenmo said, the Thirteenth Young Master's ominous premonition became more and more intense...
Winning three consecutive games was so exciting that Nan Guozhen decided to hold a celebration banquet tonight.
At night, everyone was indulging in the joy of victory. Only the Thirteenth Young Master was frowning. He had an uneasy premonition in his heart.
"Who?" The Thirteenth Young Master asked sharply.
A figure quietly walked into the kitchen. His voice was as light as a cat's steps, but it could not escape the sensitive ears of the Thirteenth Young Master.
"It's us." Jiang Hui and Su Mu responded as they walked towards them.
A trace of surprise flashed across the face of the Thirteenth Young Master. No, the sound just now clearly did not come from the front. When the Thirteenth Young Master listened carefully again, the sound as light as a cat's steps stopped, but he smelled a faint fragrance.
"Commander, why are you so worried here?" Jiang Hui asked.
In the past few days, Jiang Hui noticed that the Thirteenth Young Master always looked solemn and worried.
"Military advisor, what's wrong with you?" Su Mu was stunned when he saw the Thirteenth Young Master.
"Just now I heard sneaky footsteps in the kitchen, and I was just about to go over to check on you when you came." The Thirteenth Young Master said.
"There's a voice. Who could it be this late at night? I'll go take a look." After saying this, Su Mu walked to the kitchen.
Su Mu came to the kitchen and took a closer look. No one was there?
However, Su Mu smelled a faint fragrance. Su Mu felt like he had seen it before when he smelled the fragrance.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …
In recent days, for some unknown reason, a strange illness has appeared in the army. Many soldiers have experienced abdominal pain and cramps, vomiting, fever, fatigue, and even occasional coughing.
These symptoms are very similar to typhoid fever, so everyone thinks this is a variant typhoid fever.
Why did typhoid fever appear in Fengzhou City, which was in good condition, and the typhoid fever symptoms became more and more serious day by day. At first, the disease only affected some wounded soldiers in the army, but later it spread to the entire army. Later, the typhoid fever got out of control and spread to the entire Fengzhou City. The most terrible thing was that at this time, Emperor Xian led an army to attack. city.
The army was about to approach the city. Nanguo Zheng was so anxious that he was at a loss what to do and immediately convened a military meeting.
"All the soldiers are in severe pain, and they are all weak. Emperor Jiang has come to attack the city again. How should we fight?" Nan Guozhen asked.
There was silence in the military tent and no one answered. All the generals and leaders participating in the meeting lowered their heads and expressed that they had nothing to do.
Nan Guozhen turned his attention to the frowning Thirteenth Young Master and asked, "Commander, what should we do now?"
The Thirteenth Young Master thought for a while and then said: "Now we can only defend the city and wait for reinforcements."
ah?
Even the resourceful Thirteenth Young Master was at his wits' end, leaving Nan Guozhen stunned.
Nan Guozhen took a deep breath. It seemed that the situation was more serious than imagined.
At this time, Yi Que walked in with a bag of medicine residue in his hand.
When such a situation occurred, the Thirteenth Young Master's first instinct told him that this was not really typhoid fever, and that this typhoid fever must have come at a very coincidental time.
So the Thirteenth Duke ordered Yique and Yilong to secretly investigate whether someone was causing trouble behind the scenes.
Yi Que can be regarded as a master in toxicology. After some investigation, she found that these typhoid patients had all drank the heat-relieving soup prepared by Jiang Hui for everyone.
Yi Que also found a small grass that he had never seen before in the soup residue of Jie Shu Tang. This small flower and grass looked beautiful, but it contained a rare and highly toxic substance. There was still a faint fragrance left on the flower and grass.
Because it is a rare poison, Yi Que has not been able to develop an antidote, so he can only use the usual methods of treating typhoid fever. Although Yi Que knew that such a method could only suppress or relieve the symptoms, it could only do this when there was no antidote.
Yique spread out the soup dregs, took out a small grass from the dregs, and said: "Don't underestimate this small grass, but it contains a rare and highly toxic substance. The typhoid fever that appeared in the army was actually caused by this small grass." Caused by.”
As we all know, Jiang Hui made the soup to relieve the heat in the hot weather.
As soon as Yi Que's words came out, everyone present was shocked. Everyone was stunned and looked at Jiang Hui in disbelief.
The incident happened so suddenly that Jiang Hui didn't know how to explain it for a while.
It is true that the Jieshu soup was made by myself for the soldiers to drink, but how could it be poisonous just by boiling the Jieshu soup? And I don’t even know where the grass in Yique’s hand came from, and why did it appear in the soup residue?
Jiang Hui picked up the grass and took a closer look, then looked at the bag of soup dregs, and said: "This bag of soup dregs is indeed the soup dregs I made to relieve summer heat, but I have never seen this poisonous weed, let alone I don’t know why it appears in the soup residue because it is highly toxic, I really don’t know.”
Nan Guozhen would not believe that Jiang Hui would be stupid enough to poison the lives of soldiers and push himself to a dead end. "How brave are you? What are you talking about? Why don't you slander the princess like this?"
"Yi Que did not mean to slander the princess. This grass was indeed found in the soup residue that the princess cooked. As for whether the princess put this grass down, that is another matter?"
"What do you mean by this?" Nan Guozhen asked.
Of course, Yi Que believes that Jiang Hui is a person and would never do anything like poisoning soldiers. There is no real reason to do so. It’s just that the physical evidence is in front of you, and sometimes you have to ignore it. There are also ten things that are related to this case. The lives of tens of thousands of soldiers were lost, so even if King Youzhou blamed him, he still had to report the actual situation.
"What do you mean by this?" Nan Guozhen asked suddenly.
"Wei Chen suspects that there is a mole in our army. This mole just wants to use the hands of the princess to stir up civil strife." The thirteenth son who had been silent said.
ah?
Everyone was in an uproar. You looked at me, I looked at you, and they all wanted to know who this mole could be.
Nan Guozhen angrily hit the table with his palm and threatened, "If this damn traitor is found out by this king, she will be cut into pieces."
Nan Guo Zhen glanced at everyone and asked gloomily: "In your opinion, military advisor, who is the traitor?"
Nan Guozhen's question scared everyone present to death. Everyone knows that until the culprit is discovered, everyone is suspect.
Everyone fixed their gazes on the Thirteenth Young Master's face, waiting anxiously for the Thirteenth Young Master's reply. They wanted to know who the traitor was, but were also afraid that the Thirteenth Young Master might mistakenly pronounce their name.
The Thirteenth Young Master frowned deeply and asked with a solemn expression: "If King Youzhou really wants to know who the traitor is, then he should first wrong Concubine Youzhou?"
Nan Guozhen was slightly startled at first and asked, "Is this what you want?"
"Here comes Princess Youzhou and puts her in death row." The Thirteenth Young Master did not answer Nan Guozhen, but instead ordered Jiang Hui to be put in death row.
"No." Jiang Hui was wanted to be convicted before the matter was found out. Of course, Nan Guozhen would not allow it.
"Didn't King Youzhou say that he wanted to find out the evildoer?"
"The king really wants to find out the mole, but if the princess is not the mole, why should he put her on death row? You know, the person on death row is the one who has been sentenced to death?"
"Whether the princess is a traitor or not, is it not the King of Youzhou who has the final say?" As soon as the Thirteenth Young Master said this, Nan Guozhen was so angry that he was speechless for a moment.
