Chapter 421: It's not the Zhou family

Walking to a deserted garden path, Wen Qingzhu bowed slightly, trying to show himself calm.

Fu Lie, who was walking beside her, had a strained face and looked ahead without squinting.

Because he clearly heard the heartbeat of two people bumping.

It turned out that he was not alone in being nervous.

In the past, the two of them were together, and they always got together because they had to discuss various things.

But today, they didn't come with any purpose.

Walking to the middle of the road, Wen Qingzhu quietly peeked sideways.

Unexpectedly, Fu Lie immediately felt a sense in his heart, and looked sideways in the next second.

Suddenly, Wen Qingzhu only felt that his face was hot, and then immediately turned his head to the other side.

Unconsciously, Wen Qingzhu quickened his pace.

Fu Lie immediately adjusted his speed and always kept walking side by side with her.

A step suddenly appeared in front of him, but Wen Qingzhu didn't notice it, but walked forward quickly.

Fu Lie immediately stretched out his hand, held Wen Qingzhu's shoulder weakly, and reminded: "Be careful of the steps!" ”

Suddenly hearing his voice, Wen Qingzhu stopped abruptly.

I looked forward nervously, and there was indeed a step.

Wen Qingzhu secretly scolded himself in his heart: It's really useless!

However, in reality, she said as thin as a mosquito: "Thank you." ”

This sudden thank you made Fu Lie stunned for a moment and froze.

Looking at Fu Lie's reaction from the corner of his eye, Wen Qingzhu secretly regretted it in his heart: Really! Say thank you!

With such a divergence, Wen Qingzhu once again ignored the steps in front of him.

I took two steps and stepped straight forward.

Who knew that his feet were empty, and Wen Qingzhu's body fell forward uncontrollably.

Fu Lie was almost a little reflexive on his toes, stepped forward quickly, stretched out his hand, and stopped Wen Qingzhu's waist.

Because it was before and after the steps, Fu Lie hugged her and took a step forward, and only when he reached the flat ground did he ask with concern, "Are you okay?" ”

"It's fine." Wen Qingzhu's face turned red instantly.

He reminded me just now, why did he still step on the air!

At this moment, at the bend not far ahead, a maid with tea appeared.

When she saw Wen Qingzhu, she hadn't reacted yet.

When she saw Fu Lie, this was the Marquis of Pingguo!

The maid lowered her head without hesitation, said sorry tremblingly, turned her head and left.

Wen Qingzhu almost wanted to dig a hole and bury himself, but he struggled lightly and found that Fu Lie had no intention of letting go.

She could only whisper, "Your hand ......"

Fu Lie immediately let go of his hand and wanted to explain something, but found that Wen Qingzhu had already walked forward.

As soon as he walked around the corner, Wen Qingzhu suddenly smelled a strange smell.

After stopping abruptly, Wen Qingzhu squatted down and looked at a water mark on the bluestone slab.

Thinking back to the situation just now, it seems that the maid spilled it when she turned around.

She sniffed carefully, and the tea went down—

"What's wrong?" Fu Lie rushed over and happened to see Wen Qingzhu half-squatting on the ground.

Wen Qingzhu raised his head, looked at the direction in which the maid retreated, and said in a low voice, "That maid's tea is drugged." ”

Wen Qingzhu stood up, the smell of this medicine was very light.

But her sense of smell is very sensitive, and she chases the smell all the way forward.

Fu Lie asked as he followed behind her, "Poison? Or something else? ”

"It's similar to the last time you were drugged, but it doesn't do any harm." Wen Qingzhu's footsteps became faster and faster, and he soon walked out of this small garden.

After leaving the Moon Gate, she saw two forks in the road.

It just so happened that there was a housekeeper on the path on the left, and a few mothers-in-law were walking in this direction.

When they walked in, Wen Qingzhu stretched out his hand to stop the mother in charge and pointed to where they came from: "What is it over there?" ”

The mother in charge knew Wen Qingzhu, and replied respectfully: "It's the old lady's kitchen." ”

Wen Qingzhu's eyes rolled, and he asked with a smile, "I'm thirsty, can you send someone to take me over there to make a pot of tea?" ”

"It's better for the slave to send someone to you." The housekeeper's mother thought that she was not being well entertained.

Wen Qingzhu saw her worries: "It's nothing, the tea I drank today feels pretty good, I want to go over and see what kind of tea it is." ”

The housekeeper's mother was suspicious, and arranged for someone to let the mother-in-law go first, and she took Wen Qingzhu and Fu Lie to the kitchen herself.

When he arrived in the courtyard, Wen Qingzhu smelled a light and elegant fragrance.

Looking along the scent, I found that there were freshly picked honeysuckles on the bamboo strip drying racks in the courtyard.

Usually, honeysuckle tea is good for the body.

But when combined with that tea, it will produce a lot of toxicity.

Wen Qingzhu immediately quickened his pace, and even took the housekeeper to the house first.

She glanced around the room quickly and headed straight for the place where the tea was boiling.

Looking at the several kettles in front of me, I found that each kettle seemed to have its own specifications.

Wen Qingzhu uncovered them one by one, and immediately smelled a residual smell after the third kettle was opened.

She turned to the housekeeper's mother and asked, "Who is this kettle for?" ”

The housekeeper's mother looked at it in fright, looking at this strange kettle, and for a while she didn't know who it was dedicated to.

A fire-burning girl behind her cautiously reminded: "Didn't Master Su come here to propose marriage today?" This is the ice crack kettle that the old lady specially took out from the warehouse, specially prepared for Lord Su. ”

"What!" Wen Qingzhu's breath stagnated, staring at the kettle.

Who wants to frame the Zhou family?

If something happens to Su Huo here, the Zhou family will finally turn over, maybe they will be beaten back to their original state this time.

"You, and you!" Wen Qingzhu immediately pointed to the housekeeper's mother and the fire girl, "Take down this teapot and follow me to the old lady's place!" ”

"I'll do it." Fu Lie directly lifted the sleeve of his right hand and picked up the delicate kettle.

Within a quarter of an hour, the two of them rushed to Mrs. Zhou's side.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I found that the house was quiet.

When I looked up, there was a maid kneeling in the middle of the hall, trembling all over.

After walking in, Su Huo turned his head to look over and saw the kettle Fu Lie was carrying in his hand.

"You found out over there, too?" Su Huo walked over, and Fu Lie handed him the cold kettle.

Su Huo opened the lid and sniffed the remaining smell inside the kettle.

"Sure enough, someone did it."

Seeing that Su Huo and Zhou Yi were fine, Su Huo even directly caught the maid who delivered the tea.

Wen Qingzhu laughed silently, how could she forget that Su Huo was a master of investigating cases.

Not long ago, he also helped secretly investigate Fu Lie's drugging in Jingping Palace.

Although it was not poisonous, that time was also the fuse for Wen Qingzhu to be locked up.

After sitting down, Su Huo began to interrogate the maid.

The people of the Zhou family were sitting around, and Su Huo came to propose marriage, but he found out that this kind of thing, if it reached His Majesty's ears, it would be really-

Old Madam Zhou has left, and it is the three masters of the Zhou family who are in charge of the overall situation here.

Wen Qingzhu listened to it and felt that this maid shouldn't know much.

Thinking of Fu Lie's incident last time, Wen Qingzhu felt very strange that he could start in the palace and reach out to the Zhou family.

"Master Su, I'm here to leave a little bit beforehand."

Fu Lie also got up, said goodbye and left.

After walking out of the house, Wen Qingzhu asked Fu Lie, "Did you think it was strange last time?" ”

"I ate that jade ribbon cake and fainted?"

Wen Qingzhu's eyes were solemn and he nodded.

Fu Lie thought about the events of that day again and again, and checked the rest of the pastries, but he didn't find anything abnormal at all.

So I can only shake my head.

Wen Qingzhu and Fu Lie went out directly from the front door of the Zhou family.

Inadvertently, I glanced at it, and I happened to see Pei Zhixuan put down the curtain.

"It's her!" Wen Qingzhu whispered.

Fu Lie immediately fell asleep: "I'll stop them!" ”

Without waiting for Wen Qingzhu to answer, Fu Lie's figure flashed, and he arrived next to the carriage in an instant, jumping the coachman.

"Miss Pei, can you get out of the car?" Fu Lie asked very respectfully.

Pei Zhixuan lifted the curtain, looked at Fu Lie and said, "But what's the matter?" I just happened to be passing by, and I heard that Master Su came to Zhou's house today to propose marriage, so I just took a second look. ”

Before, Wen Qingzhu told him that Pei Zhixuan liked Su Huo.

The most important thing is that Su Huo was injured before the thieves forced the palace, precisely because Pei Zhixuan used the girl of Qingyu Pavilion to assassinate Zhou Yi.

Su Huo was seriously injured in order to protect Zhou Yi.

After a while, Pei Zhixuan still got out of the car.

Wen Qingzhu, who was standing at the door of Zhou's house, was relieved, since Pei Zhixuan was willing to get out of the car, there was a high probability that it would not be her.

Pei Zhixuan came to the door and subconsciously looked inside the door.

Wen Qingzhu knew it and said directly: "Master Su was poisoned in the Zhou family. ”

Pei Zhixuan's expression tightened, but she quickly concealed her nervousness.

"How so? Is it because the people of the Zhou family don't like him? ”

Pei Zhixuan's pretended to be light-hearted, but unfortunately Wen Qingzhu had already seen through it.

She smiled: "No, it's not the Zhou family." ”

After speaking, his eyes looked directly at Pei Zhixuan.

"You suspect it's me?" Pei Zhixuan clenched her fists, she really wanted to murder Zhou Yi on impulse.

But Su Huo, she will never do it.

Wen Qingzhu smiled: "I didn't doubt Miss Pei, I was just curious that Miss Pei clearly wanted to see Master Su, since they all came to the Zhou family, they might as well go in and have a look together." ”

The maid beside Pei Zhixuan couldn't help but want to speak, but Pei Zhixuan stretched out her hand to stop her.

She turned her head to look at Wen Qingzhu: "Since Miss Wen sincerely wants to invite, then I might as well be respectful." ”

Wen Qingzhu's smile deepened, Pei Zhixuan, a cold beauty like Bing Qing and jade, noble and dignified, actually had a day out of control.

Instead of letting her linger all the time, it is better to completely cut off her thoughts now.

Wen Qingzhu turned his head and took Pei Zhixuan to find Su Huo.

At this time, Zhou Sang and the others took the suspect to investigate the matter.

Su Huo accompanied Zhou Yi at Zhou's house.

They happened to come out of Mrs. Zhou's courtyard and saw Wen Qingzhu and Pei Zhixuan walking over.

Su Huo immediately stopped, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to block and protect Zhou Yi behind him.

Although it was just a small action, it fell in Pei Zhixuan's eyes, and this action clearly represented that Su Huo was already guarding against her.

That incident last time was really an accident, if it weren't for that woman who bewitched herself!

Pei Zhixuan gritted her teeth and tried to calm down.

But her heart was still aching.

After the two sides met, Pei Zhixuan was still the first beauty in the capital with thoughtful etiquette.

Every move is pleasing to the eye.

"Master Su, Miss Zhou."

Su Huo glanced at Wen Qingzhu and didn't quite understand what she meant.

But Pei Zhixuan is here, and there is still a lot of etiquette.

"Miss Pei."

Zhou Yi knew that the last assassination was related to Pei Zhixuan, but she came over so calmly today, her mood was very complicated for a while.

Of course, Pei Zhixuan likes things about Su Huo, and she also knows it.

"Miss Pei."

After the greetings between the two sides, they were speechless.

Wen Qingzhu took in the changes in Pei Zhixuan's eyes just now.

Seeing that they were speechless, he smiled and said, "Miss Pei happened to be passing by just now, and I thought that you all knew each other, so I brought her in to meet you." ”
