One touch and one silence

"what's up?"

"Sir, the mother and son that the master just brought in today are dead. They died of poisoning."

"I watched as that yamen runner put arsenic in the food of the mother and son. I was clearly sick, but I didn't expect that the mother and son still died!"

"After I changed the food, I went to see Yang Xiaocui. Who knew that after a while, Yang Xiaocui was also poisoned!"

"I heard the two jailers talking on my way back. I didn't have time to check. What should I do now?"

Sanqi was so anxious that he was jumping up and down. Since his master had asked him to keep an eye on it, he didn't expect that it would fall into his hands.

"What are you still standing there for? Hurry and bring Doctor Xu over. This person is very important. The master has been so tired today for her. If this is in vain, you know the consequences."

Liu Yue stared at San Qi with an extremely stern tone.

Sanqi was completely ashamed.

"Don't worry, Commander Liu. I'll be there right away!"

Liu Yue returned to Nanzhi's bedroom with a gloomy face. She looked at her master's sleeping face but still did not open her mouth to wake her up.

Nothing is more important than the master's health. The master is indeed tired today.

When Nanzhi woke up, Liuyue had disappeared. What was rare was that she saw Nanny Qin standing by her side.

"Morning, Mammy!"

Nanzhi stretched lazily, yawned, and said good morning to the nanny.

The nanny looked at the prince and saw that he was just like a child, with a soft and fair face. Even the way he stretched was so adorable that it could melt one's heart.

"Good morning, Your Highness! Master Liu Yue has gone out to do some work, so he asked Nanny to look after Your Highness!"

Nanzhi stopped in her tracks after hearing what Mammy said, "Going out? To do business?"

She remembered that she hadn't arranged anything for Liu Yue. What on earth was it that made Liu Yue come here in person?

Nanzhi didn't figure it out until she finished breakfast. As soon as Nanzhi stepped out of the palace gate, Liuyue came back.

"What a coincidence!"

Liu Yue saw that his master was in a particularly good mood, so he told him what happened last night.

"Your Highness, did Liu's mother and son die at midnight last night?"

"They died of poisoning. Even Yang Xiaocui died!"

Nanzhi was stunned, and her tone became a little higher, "What did you say?"

"Yesterday, Sanqi was keeping an eye on those people. Sanqi had already replaced the poisonous food, but the three people still died. Doctor Xu tried to save them all morning but was unable to do so."

Nanzhi couldn't help but secretly curse himself for being careless.

"Let's go! Go and have a look!"

At this time, Nanzhi no longer cared whether her identity was exposed or not.

He walked towards the county government office at the speed of wind. A small county government office actually dared to kill people to silence them under his threats from many sides. Did they really think that her position as a prince was in vain?

When Nanzhi arrived, the three bodies were neatly arranged. She then looked at Yuan Wuqing who was standing beside them. Seeing the haggardness on his face, she was afraid that he had not rested yesterday.

"Thanks for your hard work!"

After Nanzhi finished speaking, she squatted down and lifted the white cloth. She wanted to see who was so brave.

Nanzhi took Yang Xiaocui's hand and took a look. To outsiders, it seemed like he was taking her pulse, but in fact, Nanzhi was looking at how Yang Xiaocui died yesterday.

It turns out the water is poisonous!

Nanzhi suppressed the anger in her heart, picked up the hands of the other two people and looked at them one by one.

It turned out that when she took people to investigate yesterday, the old woman had already made up her mind to die, and someone from the government actually tipped her off.

No wonder Liu Yue said that even though Sanqi had changed their food, the three people were still poisoned to death. Were they poisoned to death?

Who would have thought that those bastards would poison the water in order to achieve their goal, and even the mother and child were poisoned. How could they not die quickly?

Do you really think that no one knows about their evil deeds?

Nanzhi looked at the pale-faced old woman with blood coming out of all her orifices, and had a deeper understanding of her cruelty.

At this time, Fatty Chen ran in anxiously.

"Master Yuan, people are saying that you forced the mother and son of the Liu family to death for Yang Xiaocui!"

"You also said that Yang Xiaocui was your lover, so you are reviewing the case for Yang Xiaocui!"

Nanzhi laughed out of anger, this was really a good plan.

"Okay! Liu Yue will send someone to investigate where the rumor started. By the way, take my token and go find the garrison in Jiangnan and ask him to come see me!"

Since they don't take him seriously, they will keep it in mind. Every time they think of her in the future, they will be scared!

Nanzhi sneered and walked out with Yuan Wuqing.

At this time, the county magistrate and the legal advisor did not know that they were about to meet with a disaster. While they were still celebrating, all three of them died.

Now no one knows what happens in prison.

Just when the two were so happy that they forgot themselves, a bailiff came over to report that the prince had arrived at the government office.

Magistrate Wu was so frightened that he lost his balance and dropped the teacup to the ground. The scalding water burned his feet, but he did not care about the pain and immediately ran towards the prison, shouting "Master".

When he arrived, Nanzhi was leading his men towards the lobby of the government office.

"Your Highness! I am late, I hope Your Highness will forgive me!" He had known for a long time that Prince Anle was a child, but he did not expect that he was the one who followed Yuan Shaoqing at the beginning.

Thinking about what she said, the county magistrate felt a chill all over his back.

He knew that once this matter was discovered, his life would be over.

"You came just in time, let's go together!"

Nanzhi led everyone to the lobby and sat down on the highest seat.

"Someone, bring all of Yang Xiaocui's family members here, as well as Liu's nanny and housekeeper!"

Naturally, the yamen runners did not dare to be negligent and ran out quickly. Some of them were sharp-eyed and quickly poured tea for Nanzhi.

Nanzhi sat on it, glanced at the people below with cold eyes, looked at their different expressions, and sneered in his heart.

They waited for two hours until a large group of people walked into the county government office.

Magistrate Wu was so frightened that his legs went limp and he fell to the ground. The legal advisor behind him quickly supported him.

Nanzhi looked at Magistrate Wu and sneered.

"Your Highness, Li Chang, the fourth-rank governor of Jiangnan, is here to pay his respects to Prince Anle!"

Nanzhi looked at the man kneeling on the ground. He was wearing armor and looked energetic. Judging from his appearance, he should be around thirty years old.

He has a good figure and doesn't have the big belly like County Magistrate Wu.

He seemed quite respectful to her, but one can't judge a person by appearances.

Nanzhi took a quick look and asked in a deep voice, "Did the county magistrate bring many people with him?"

Li Changliu replied respectfully, "In reply to your Majesty, I brought three hundred soldiers."

Nanzhi heard three hundred and thought it was enough.

"Okay! That's enough!"

"Then please ask the county magistrate to surround the entire county government office for me, and also arrest the jailers in the prison, especially those on death row."

Li Changliu responded and gave instructions to his trusted men. The entire hall was filled with the sound of these people's heavy footsteps.
