Sister, you traveled through time too?

Chapter 97 The food is poisonous!

"Your Highness, what are you looking at?"

Xiaoyu lay quietly by the window of the carriage, watching the changing light and shadows along the way with a lazy and relaxed expression.

The group traveled along the way, heading towards the grassland.

Jiang Hao saw Xiaoyu looking into the distance and asked softly.

"See that river?"

Xiaoyu curled her lips and smiled, then asked softly.

Jiang Hao looked and saw a small stream along the road.

The stream is graceful, slender and gentle, and it cannot be any smaller. Looking at it one can only feel that there is no telling when the water will disappear.

"Saw."

Jiang Hao nodded and replied.

Xiaoyu smiled and said nothing.

Then, the carriage went over the hill, and we saw the trickle of water merging into the rushing river, with its majestic and mighty momentum.

"I wonder if this stream will surprise me by becoming surging and flamboyant."

Xiaoyu smiled lightly, her eyes calm and indifferent.

……

【Wu'an Marquis Mansion (He Family)】

"Come on, big brother, this cup is for you!"

There was joy in the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion because He Chen was favored by the emperor and appointed as General of Cavalry.

Marquis Wu'an specially set up a family banquet to celebrate.

He Jue's face was also filled with smiles, and he toasted He Chen with a very happy look.

"I hope my brother can get a good ranking in the science exam this year."

He Chen said with a smile, and stood up to respond to He Jue's toast.

The two brothers looked at each other, showing brotherly love and respect for each other. The atmosphere seemed very friendly.

They both drank it in one gulp, closed their eyes and raised their heads, each of them feeling tense inside.

"You idiot, you're just bringing up all sorts of issues. Haiying is the one who's in charge of the imperial examinations. How can I get a good ranking?"

He Jue complained silently in his heart and really wanted to roll his eyes a thousand times at his brother.

Then He Jue thought of his plan again and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

"You idiot, just laugh, and soon you won't be able to laugh anymore."

He thought about it, his face still respectful and bright, but in his heart he had already thought about how to bring down his brother.

The reason why Hai Yi attached so much importance to the transportation of food and fodder this time was because the supply was extremely important and almost determined the outcome of the battle on the grassland.

Once the supply of food and grass is not in place, the Xia family's troops will suffer heavy losses, which is also the result that Hai Yi wants to see.

This batch of food and fodder must have been tampered with secretly. If we follow the clues, we will find out.

As long as the evidence is obtained, He Chen will be doomed.

But Haiyi is cunning, and Hechen is Haiyi's right-hand man. I think Haiyi will not easily push Hechen out to take the blame.

Even if the food and supplies were tampered with and something happened, someone else would definitely be the one to take the blame.

If you want to defeat He Chen and make Hai Yi lose an arm, you have to come up with something else to make sure He Chen has no way to escape from his mistake in the matter of food and fodder.

He Jue drank with a smile on his face and congratulated He Chen, but in his heart he was already thinking about what to do.

If something happens to He Chen, the entire He family might be investigated as well.

But I have already discussed this with His Highness secretly, so I don't think it will be a big problem.

These days, He Jue used Xiaoyu's power to investigate and do many things.

He was ready to arm wrestle with He Chen.

"Brother, let's see who will have the last laugh."

He Jue thought to himself, and smiled brightly at He Chen, his two little fangs sparkling.

He Chen looked at his brother's sweet smile and felt that his two canine teeth were too bright and dazzling.

He has always hated He Jue, and hated the two fangs that appeared when He Jue smiled.

No matter how innocent and bright He Jue looked, He Chen still found her extremely disgusting.

It's like a wild beast lurking beside you, wanting to bite you so much but unable to do so.

They can only lie dormant, baring their harmless fangs at you, flattering you and waiting for the right opportunity.

That kind of smile would always make He Chen wary, the more innocent it was, the more wary he would be.

He understood, how could a wild animal's fangs not hurt people?

It's all just an illusion.

……

The night gradually deepened, and Xiaoyu and his group finally found an inn to stay.

The group stopped to rest at an inn along the way. To put it nicely, this inn was an inn, but at best it was a farmhouse.

However, Jiang Hao and Xiao Yun'er did not complain.

After they put away their luggage, they went to the courtyard of the inn to have dinner.

There was a big table and everyone sat around it. As soon as Chun Ke sat down, he started to polish the bench next to him until it was shiny.

The dirt on the bench that had been there for years was all dried away and polished.

"Your Highness, please sit down." Chun Ke raised his head, his eyes bright, and looked at Xiaoyu eagerly.

Xiaoyu smiled and nodded, rubbed Chunke's head and then sat down.

Jiang Haoben, who was standing by, was also wiping the stool next to him with a piece of silk.

But he didn't expect Chun Ke's hands to be so quick, so he had to put the silk back into his sleeve without making a sound.

An Er immediately sat down on the stool next to Jiang Hao.

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang, for wiping the stool for me." An Er scratched his head embarrassedly and said with a silly smile.

Jiang Hao twitched his lips and said awkwardly, "You're welcome."

Xiaoyu couldn't help laughing when she saw this, and then she asked everyone to eat quickly.

The innkeeper was an old woman.

There were only two employees in the store, one was the woman's husband who had difficulty walking, and the other was her somewhat mentally retarded son.

The woman came forward with the dishes and smiled warmly at everyone.

"Don't be surprised, this is just a small shop in the countryside, with only simple food and drinks."

The woman spoke stiffly with a smile on her face, and her eyes couldn't stop looking at the little fish.

Xiaoyu did not avoid such gazes and said with a smile that it was okay.

The woman then stepped back, but her eyes were still secretly observing everyone.

"It smells so good." An Er held the bowl and ate the rice without any hesitation.

After a long journey, they all took their bowls and ate with relish.

Xiaoyu always felt that someone was staring at her, so she just picked and chose, ate a few bites, and then put down her chopsticks.

"Your Highness, aren't you going to eat anymore?"

Seeing this, Jiang Hao swallowed the food in his mouth and asked.

Xiaoyu shook her head and looked around vigilantly, and saw that the woman was not looking at them, but was feeding her stupid son.

Xiaoyu thought, was it because he was too suspicious?

After all, this woman looks very kind, her husband is old and has injured legs and feet, and her son is a fool.

There's no threat anyway.

"Your Highness, did you feel anything?" Chun Ke put down his bowl and chopsticks and asked calmly.

While chewing, An Er said casually: "Who came up with this pheasant stewed with mushrooms? Why is it so delicious?"

As soon as he finished speaking, An Er's expression froze, and then his eyes became dazed and he fell straight off the bench.

"Oh no! It's poisonous!" Chun Ke quickly stood up, pulled the little fish back and protected it.

Xiao Yun'er was stunned for a moment. Before she could swallow the food in her mouth, her eyes turned black and she fell down.

Jiang Hao just wanted to get up, but he fainted.

"Your Highness, this is not good! I think the food was drugged. I just ate it." Chun Ke was anxious and secretly put the knife on his waist to Xiaoyu's waist.

Xiaoyu felt Chunke's actions and said nothing, just stared at the woman who was still feeding her son.

The man sitting not far away stood up. The woman's husband had no problem with his legs at all!
