Back and forth: I brought supplies to help the impoverished prince

"I heard from Qingyu that you know something about poison." Mu Qingchen wanted to find a topic to talk to Qiao Shinian.

Qiao Shinian shook his head decisively: "No, I didn't, he's talking nonsense."

After saying that, he looked at Qingyu who looked innocent, "How could you tell the prince that I knew something about poison! You don't even know, why are you talking nonsense?"

Qingyu frowned as she watched Qiao Shinian accuse him righteously, and said in a cold voice: "Have you forgotten what you said to me at the back of the Marquis's wedding last time?"

"Ah? Then you know how to make a fire, so you must be a great chef!" Qiao Shinian was annoyed, then turned back and looked at Mu Qingchen seriously: "Xian Wang, please believe me, I swear to God, I really don't know poison."

"I only know the principle of silver needle testing for poison, and I have a superficial understanding of the poisons of our time." Qiao Shinian looked at Mu Qingchen sincerely, trying to make him understand from his sincere eyes that what he said was true.

Mu Qingchen smiled slightly and nodded: "I believe you, Miss. Could you explain it to me in detail?"

"Okay!" Qiao Shinian responded, "According to what I know, our poison is not purified enough due to technical reasons. Poisons like arsenic contain impurities of sulfur and sulfide, so silver and sulfide can produce a chemical reaction, which causes the silver needle to turn black."

"Some poisons cannot be detected by silver needles, and some non-toxic foods will produce chemical reactions with silver needles, causing them to turn black." Qiao Shinian carefully told Mu Qingchen what he knew about silver needle testing for poison.

She looked casual, but her hands were tightly grasping the corner of her clothes.

Just now she was a little more presumptuous and questioned his guards in front of Mu Qingchen.

Mu Qingchen was not angry, but asked himself about the silver needle turning black.

She listened to her sixth sense, and her sixth sense told her that Mu Qingchen's emotions had not changed, as before.

But the fact that there is no change now does not mean that Mu Qingchen will not suddenly turn hostile after she finishes speaking, so she carefully observes the subtle changes in Mu Qingchen's expression.

But this kind of direct gaze made Mu Qingchen feel a little uncomfortable. He turned his head slightly to avoid Qiao Shinian's gaze.

Seeing him tilt his head, Qiao Shinian's heart sank slightly. It was time to kneel down and apologize!

She immediately stood up, but before she knelt down, she was stopped by Mu Qingchen. Mu Qingchen said uncomfortably, "I'm not angry, and you don't have to be afraid all the time. If possible, please don't stare at me, Miss Qiao."

"Ah?" Qiao Shinian's nervous mood eased a little. She realized that this might be an innocent big boy. No, this had nothing to do with innocent big boys. It was because she forgot that the ancients were reserved. She had been staring at others. She was being rude.

"Oh oh." Qiao Shinian lowered his head immediately.

Seeing Qiao Shinian's reserved look, Mu Qingchen said, "Being with you and Wen Jiu makes me feel a little more comfortable, so you can relax and treat me like you treat Wen Jiu. I won't get angry or lose my temper, this is my promise to you."

"Oh, okay. Then can you let go of my arm?" Qiao Shinian lowered his head.

"I can slap Wen Jiu on the head, but I can't slap you on the back and say, 'Good buddies share happiness, remember to protect Wen Jiu and me more.'"

"Oh, Your Highness, the Virtuous Prince is in such a good mood!" Just when Mu Qingchen let go of Qiao Shinian and was about to say something, Mo Lin, who was wearing a dark blue gown, came over without any hesitation and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since we last met. I thought Your Highness, the Virtuous Prince, had left the capital again!"

As he spoke, he set his eyes on Qiao Shinian. Seeing Qiao Shinian standing aside with his head lowered, he asked, "Where is your Thirteenth Prince?"

"In reply to the young general, His Highness the Thirteenth Prince is accompanying Princess Yu'an to a lotus viewing banquet." Qiao Shinian replied in a low voice.

Mo Lin frowned and was about to speak when a young man following behind him sneered, "Your master is not here, but you are! It seems that you are quite ambitious. If you want to climb up to the high branch of the wise king, it depends on whether you are worthy enough!"

"That's right! Your Highness, please be careful and don't let this lowly slave climb into your bed and tarnish your reputation!" The other man spoke with contempt, but his eyes were always on Qiao Shinian's chest without moving his eyeballs.

"Shut up!" Mo Lin growled.

Mu Qingchen looked at the two men with a dark face and asked in a cold voice: "Is this king familiar with you? You want to make decisions for this king? It seems that you are living a comfortable life and want to teach this king how to do things! That's really good!"

Seeing Mu Qingchen's dark face, the two young masters were stunned at first, and then bowed and apologized repeatedly: "Your Highness, we are all doing this for your own good. We are afraid that you will be deceived by this lowly maid."

Everyone in the capital knows Mu Qingchen's temper. He never loses his temper. He is like a smiling doll, always with a gentle smile on his face, and always treats people gently. Even if someone offends him, he will just give a warning and will not pursue the matter too much.

"Yes, Your Highness, we are sincere and we hope you will understand!"

Qiao Shinian felt a little uncomfortable. She looked up at Mo Lin. Before she could say anything, Mo Lin asked, "What's wrong with you? Do you need help?"

He didn't think Qiao Shinian would go against Wen Jiu, so he guessed that Qiao Shinian was forced to follow Mu Qingchen.

Others may not understand Mu Qingchen, but he knows Mu Qingchen's nature very well. Although he looks gentle, he is very ruthless and decisive in his actions.

This stupid woman Qiao Shinian must have been targeted by Mu Qingchen!

Qiao Shi-nian lowered her head immediately after she made eye contact with Mo Lin, and replied, "I volunteered to go out of the palace with His Royal Highness the King to listen to music, so I don't need any help. Thank you for your kindness, General."

"Tsk!" Mo Lin looked at Qiao Shinian unhappily, feeling a little anxious, and said, "Are you sure? If you need help, I can still help you."

Qiao Shinian was curious. She was not familiar with Mo Lin and they had hardly even talked to each other.

Why is he coming forward to help me now?

Mo Lin seemed quite kind-hearted when she asked for help before, but she hardly saw Mo Lin since then.

Even though he owed Mo Lin a favor, he couldn't be afraid that something might happen to her and he wouldn't be able to repay the favor, right?

Qiao Shinian thought about it, and suddenly thought of a possibility that he had always overlooked. This world is a world of power, and power is naturally divided into factions. So could it be that Mo Lin wants to use this opportunity to discredit Mu Qingchen's reputation?

"Qingyu, break their legs and throw them out." Mu Qingchen looked at the two people behind Mo Lin, his eyes full of coldness: "I don't want to meet you in any play occasions again. If I see you again, I will pull out your tongues and beat you every time I see you!"

"Your Highness!"

"Your Highness, we..."

As the voice faded away, Mu Qingchen set his eyes on Mo Lin and said in a cold voice, "Young Master Mo, do you think that I am the kind of person who uses my power to force others?"
