The reborn sweet girl always wants to escape, but the abstinent prince hugs her and coaxes her!

The main road of Yuhe River pours in from the south of the city and traverses the entire Yuzhou City.

Finally, it heads north and merges into Guangtong Canal, a canal with hundreds of years of history.

Because it is connected to the canal, both sides of the Yuhe River have been full of life for hundreds of years.

Whether it is a prosperous shop or an inn, "riverside" will be used as a gimmick to attract business.

Even the academy is a little more elegant because it is "close to the water".

The same is true for private houses. Those who can buy a house by the river are either rich or noble.

But now, this means that this convenient Yuhe River has been used by evil people and turned into a source of poison for the people of Yuzhou.

When Xu Rongrong first told her her suspicions, Luo Xiao, who had grown up in Yuzhou, couldn't believe it!

But when Xu Rongrong marked the epidemic spots in the city on the map one by one with a red pen, the dense red patches on both sides of the Yu River stung her eyes deeply.

Luo Xiao finally believed with tears that the county leader's conclusion was correct.

This belief made her slumped on the ground, and Luo Yuqi threw herself into her arms, crying sadly.

"Why would someone do this?" Big tears rolled down Luo Xiao's cheeks.

They depended on each other for life, and her beloved husband died. She thought it was just an epidemic and a natural disaster.

She resented the injustice of God for taking away her husband at this time.

But today, the county magistrate told her... her husband's death was not a natural disaster, but a deliberate murder.

This was harder for her to accept than a natural disaster.

Why?Why would someone be so cruel!

To hurt innocent people like her husband one after another.

She was tired of crying and hugged her daughter in her arms.

He raised his eyes and looked at Xu Rongrong: "Why would someone do such a thing?"

Xu Rongrong thought about Mu Rong's errands for the East Palace, and her thoughts were opened layer by layer.

She bent down to lift up the Luo Xiao family and her daughter, looked at them, and murmured, "It's because someone wants to cause a big mess in Jiangnan."

"Once something happens in Jiangnan, the first person your Majesty will want to punish is the deposed envoy Chang Jing of Jiangnan Road. In this case, no matter what kind of punishment, one of the prince's arms will be cut off. But they did not expect that Lord Chang would actually The response was so quick that the flood did not have a great impact on the four states south of the Yangtze River."

"So, they came up with a more sinister idea: to infect the people of Jiangnan with the epidemic. Only in this way, the emperor will blame it on Mr. Chang's poor performance!"

That's how those people were successful in their previous lives.

Xu Rongrong sighed in her heart: In this life, they are about to succeed again.

She continued: "But now, except for the severe cases, almost all the patients in Yuzhou City have recovered. Even the seriously ill people have not died for many days. Therefore, the person in the dark must be unwilling to give up. I think, He’ll be poisoning again soon!”

"What should we do?" Luo Yuqi was a little scared. She grabbed Xu Rongrong's hand, "Will we still be killed?"

Xu Rongrong smiled and touched the bun on her head, and said with a smile: "No, I will find him!"

"Since the water of the Yu River is introduced from the south of the city and merges into the Guangtong Canal to the north, then we might as well set up an ambush in the south of the city and wait for him, and wait until he strikes again, and everyone will get the stolen goods!"

"If you find the poisoner, you can find the antidote."

Xu Rongrong's voice was not loud, but it was enough to shock everyone.

Even Mu Ai, who had been standing outside the door, heard clearly. As soon as Xu Rongrong finished speaking, he shouted loudly: I'm going!I'm going to catch that evil guy! "

What he said was true and confident.

Because, these days, he has watched Chu He behave in front of the eldest lady. If he doesn't work hard, he is afraid that when the Marquis comes back after finishing his work, there will be no room left for the Marquis beside the eldest lady!

Xu Rongrong originally preferred Chu He, but seeing Mu Ai taking such initiative and thinking that he was also very skilled, he nodded and said, "In that case, then there is Deputy General Lao Ai."

"You're welcome, young lady. I have been ordered by my Lord Marquis to protect the young lady, and I will certainly help you at any time." He did not forget to take the opportunity to win favor with his Lord Marquis.

Xu Rongrong saw through his careful plan at a glance.

At the moment, smile without saying a word.

He just asked Wen Yao to prepare some clothes for him to stay up late and keep out the cold.

After all, poisoning the entire city would not be done blatantly during the day.

Can……

Two days passed, and Muai still found nothing.

At this moment, he was standing in front of Xu Rongrong with a look of shame on his face: "It's because my subordinate is incompetent."

Xu Rongrong looked at his cheeks that were already chapped from the cold, and comforted him: "How can I blame you? Those people who dare to do such risky things will definitely be extremely careful not to reveal any flaws."

Mu Ai lowered his head and said nothing.

Luo Xiao asked in confusion: "Didn't that villain poison the Yu River?"

"No! They were moving in the river!" Before Luo Xiao could finish her words, she was interrupted by Shu Qing who hurried back.

He had just come back from outside. Because he had been walking in a hurry, thin beads of sweat were leaking out on his forehead: "In the past two days, some people in the city have suddenly suffered from high fever! And... the symptoms are more severe than before. I think it is Someone secretly increased the amount of poison!"

Xu Rongrong was surprised when he heard this: "Where are they from?"

Shu Qing raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead: "It's exactly what the eldest lady thought before! The closer the people are to the entrance of Yuhe River, the more serious their illness will be!"

After speaking, he said firmly: "There is indeed someone tampering with Yuhe!"

Mu Ai's head dropped even lower: "This subordinate is useless. It's been two days and I haven't found any clues."

I originally wanted to earn face for Mr. Hou, but I didn’t expect...

"However, with Vice Admiral Ai's skill, it is impossible not to see any trace of the other party." Luo Xiao asked doubtfully.

Xu Rongrong raised his head and looked at the towering mountains to the south: "That's because we always thought that the man was poisoning the city and ignored the true source of the Yu River."

Mu Ai heard this: "What does the eldest lady mean?"

Xu Rongrong said firmly: "That man is on Yushan Mountain! In the birthplace of Yuhe River."

Everyone was shocked.

Soon, Luo Xiao came to his senses: "Indeed, the Yu River flows down from Yu Mountain, and its name also comes from Yu Mountain."

Mu Ai immediately cheered up, and the fatigue on his face was wiped away: "Then my subordinates will go to Yushan now!"

After speaking, he turned to leave.

"Wait a minute!" Xu Rongrong called to him, "I'll go with you."

"No!" Chu He, who had been standing by silently, said, "It's too dangerous there! Just let him go by himself."

Muai: "..."

Seeing this, Xu Rongrong smiled and said: "Vice General Ai doesn't know much about herbal medicine. At least I know some pharmacology. If I can find traces of the poison, it will also be convenient for Dr. Shu to develop the antidote."

"But your illness is not cured yet!"

"Mr. Shu has been diagnosing my pulse every day. I'm very well now. Besides, Yushan is very close to here. We can be back in half a day."

Chu He still disagreed: "I'll go with you."

Mu Ai: "..." Do you look down on me?

Xu Rongrong persuaded again: "But if you go, what should Doctor Shu do? Now is the most critical time for him to develop the antidote. He must be protected by someone. Presumably the person who poisoned him already knows that there is someone in Yuzhou City. If you go against them, if they come to your door, not only Shu Langzhong, but everyone in this courtyard will suffer."

"I can rest assured that their safety is in your hands."

Mu Ai: "..." You all look down on me!

Chu He looked deeply at Xu Rongrong and saw through her pretending to be relaxed at this moment.

But the more he got to know her, the less he could bear to disobey her.

He turned to look at Muai...

He knew what this deputy general was capable of.

So, he walked up to Mu Ai and said, "Then you must protect her safety. If anything happens to her... I will let everyone named Mu be buried with her!"

His words suddenly gave Mu Ai a chill in his heart.

What he said...all people named Mu...

It actually gave him the illusion that he was referring to the entire Mu family army.
