All the money was emptied on the way to exile, and there was too much money to spend

"Waste, just waste!"

Yuan Che turned around and kicked Zhu Qiang, who was kneeling on the ground, on the shoulder.

Zhu Qiang groaned, but his body remained kneeling straight.

"I have given Xie Lin so many poisons, and the head of the Imperial Hospital has personally confirmed that his time is up and even gods cannot save him."

"It's only been a few days since he left Chang'an City. How did he come back to life? He's still alive and well, and he kidnapped my cousin?"

Yuan Che felt offended.

The prince's dignity was ruthlessly trampled underfoot by the traitor Xie Lin.

Zhu Qiang lowered his head and waited for Yuan Che to smash almost everything in the house. His anger had almost subsided. Then he said word by word: "Your Highness, do you know Miss Xia?"

"What are you talking about? She is my cousin. I have watched her grow up. How can I not understand her?"

"Your Highness, do you know that Miss Xia is very good at poisoning people?"

Zhu Qiang was still brooding over what Xia Chan had said before.

If the prince really knew that Xia Chan's poison was very powerful, but did not tell him, the person who was carrying out the mission, it would make him look stupid.

In other words, in the eyes of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, his life was not even as valuable as a weed on the roadside.

Although compared with the noble status of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he is indeed nothing, but if his master knew that he was in danger but did not say a word, he would feel uncomfortable.

Moreover, the prince is prone to bad temper. With such a temper, if he really becomes the emperor in the future and holds supreme power, will he really be good to the people?

Zhu Qiang raised a question about this.

Yuan Che was also stunned for a moment.

"What did you say? You said Qin Yu would poison someone? What are you talking about?"

"Go ask around, who in the entire city of Chang'an doesn't know that the eldest daughter of the Xia family is the most gentle, kind, and well-educated?"

"I didn't lie."

Even if Yuan Che didn't believe it, Zhu Qiang insisted on his point of view: "The eldest lady of the Xia family poisoned my subordinate and destroyed my internal strength."

"what?"

Yuan Che narrowed his eyes and glanced at the kneeling Zhu Qiang. He walked forward and put his hand on Zhu Qiang's wrist.

He probed with his thumb and found that the energy in his dantian was disordered, which was indeed like the symptoms of poisoning.

Could it be that this poison was really administered by Qin Yu?

That's impossible. How could she, the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Lin'an, get the poison?

Besides, even if Xia Chan managed to get the poison by chance, it was impossible for her to poison Zhu Qiang.

Zhu Qiang is one of the best fighters around him.

Anyone who wants to poison Zhu Qiang and is able to do so must be very skilled.

Putting aside other things, Xia Chan fails in terms of skills.

In Yuan Che's heart, he still regarded Xia Chan as the weak and helpless noble lady in his impression.

He didn't know what it meant that when a man has been away for three days, he should be looked at with new eyes.

Especially now that the soul in my body is a summer cicada from another world, after a few days of separation, I should look at it with new eyes again and again.

From Yuan Che's reaction, Zhu Qiang was sure that Yuan Che was indeed unaware of Xia Chan's skills.

He was originally feeling uncomfortable, but now he felt a little better.

"Your Highness, I dare not lie to you. Miss Xia is indeed not the Miss Xia you know."

"She knows how to use poison, and she's very good at it. Her skills are even more amazing. My subordinates fought with her several times, but not only did they not gain any advantage, they were even trampled under her feet."

"Are you telling the truth?"

Yuan Che would not repeatedly doubt his confidants.

Especially on Zhu Qiang's face, there was no sign of lying.

Yuan Che couldn't help but start thinking.

What's wrong here?

Why is Xia Chan so skilled? Could it be that his uncle has been secretly teaching Qin Yu kung fu without telling him and his mother?

So what is his purpose?

Support me to ascend to the throne smoothly? Or does he have other thoughts but refuses to tell me?

My uncle has changed his mind?

This suspicion is like a seed. Once it is sown, it will soon grow into a towering tree in your heart.

That’s right, Yuan Che began to suspect Marquis Lin’an.

He needs to verify this matter himself.

He wanted to go and ask in person what the Marquis of Lin'an was planning.

But before that, we still have to arrange for someone to hunt down Xie Lin.

"Just now, news came from the palace that my father summoned the commander of the Imperial Guards. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be the deputy commander of the Imperial Guards who is leading people to hunt down Xie San."

"Well, you will lead a team of men to chase them along the way. If you encounter any member of the Xie family, no matter whether they are old or young, you will kill them all."

Yuan Che became furious, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"What should we do with Miss Xia?"

This is what Zhu Qiang cares about.

As long as Yuan Che agreed to let him kill her, he would make Xia Chan live a life worse than death, so that he could relieve the hatred in his heart.

When mentioning his white moonlight cousin, Yuan Che's expression showed a hint of hesitation.

But soon, he figured it out.

"If she is willing to come back and her heart is still with me, then bring her back. If she has completely become an accomplice of the Xie family, kill her!"

"Yes."

Zhu Qiang nodded yes, slowly stood up and left the study.

Yuan Che stood in the study for a while. He wanted to drink tea, but when he stretched out his hand, he found that everything in the study had been broken into pieces.

The teacup was broken into several pieces and lying on the ground.

Yuan Che was extremely angry.

He flicked his sleeves, turned around and left the study, then quietly went to the Lin'an Marquis Mansion.

Lin'an Marquis Mansion.

No matter what time it is, the Marquis' Mansion is always quiet and cold.

No matter who lives in this huge courtyard, from the owner to the people who sweep the floor and pour the night incense, they are all very quiet.

There is never any loud noise here.

There's no way, the Marquis likes quietness.

The Marquis's wife also likes quietness.

Yuan Che hurried into the marquis's mansion through the side door and went straight to the study of Marquis Lin'an.

Lord Xiahou was admiring a painting by a great calligrapher. When he heard someone announce that the prince had arrived, he raised his eyelids slightly.

Yuan Che had already pushed the door and walked in.

"His Royal Highness."

Lord Xiahou put down the painting in his hand and turned to greet Yuan Che. Even though the other party was the prince, Lord Xiahou's tone was very light and gentle, neither humble nor arrogant.

Yuan Che waved his hand: "Uncle, there's no need to be so polite."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Lord Xiahou stood aside, folded his hands, and waited for the prince to speak.

Yuan Che was full of anger when he went out, but when he came here and saw the cold appearance of Lord Xiahou, his anger inexplicably dissipated.

He cleared his throat and said, "Uncle, have you heard? Xie San has woken up. He kidnapped the group of death row prisoners from the Xie family and took Chanchan away."
