Gao Sheng took the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, feeling a little familiar and a little scared.

"This is unlucky, don't eat it."

"What are you afraid of?" Mrs. Liu disagreed. "We only prepared four of those things, and we saw them all eating them. They must have bought this on the road. It's okay."

Seeing an official coming this way, Mrs. Liu quickly stuffed the sweet-scented osmanthus cake into her mouth for fear of being snatched away, and ate it in a hurry.

I ate so fast that I almost choked.

Hearing that what she said made sense, Gao hurriedly ate the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in his hand.

He also ate so quickly that he didn't even recognize the taste.

It wasn't until he swallowed it all that he said doubtfully: "Why do I feel that this osmanthus cake looks a bit like Jiqingfang's?"

Mrs. Liu finally swallowed the sweet-scented osmanthus cake and guessed, "Maybe the boy named Chu brought it from the capital as a gift to them. It's nothing strange."

When Gao Sheng heard this, the little doubt he had in his heart was eliminated.

There were only four poisonous osmanthus cakes, and they saw with their own eyes that the four members of the Ye family ate them without leaving any crumbs. There could be nothing wrong with these two osmanthus cakes.

They didn't know that Ye Weiyun had extraordinary ears and was attached to the edge of the tent, hearing the conversation between the two clearly.

Ye Weiyun sneered. They really wanted to kill his family, so the two sweet-scented osmanthus cakes could be considered a gift in return.

Do not live by committing sins.

Seeing Yan Ruoli look at him, he nodded towards her.

While Ye Weiyun was listening to the conversation between mother and son, Yan Ruoli had already complained about stomachache and briefly told Cheng Zhilan and Ye Feiran about the situation.

Cheng Zhilan was so shocked that her hands and feet were cold, she couldn't believe that human nature could be so vicious.

Ye Linyuan valued Gao Sheng very much and promoted him from a soldier to a deputy general. He actually betrayed Ye Linyuan and wanted to poison his family.

Ye Feiran was smart and quickly held his stomach, pretending that he had a stomachache.

When the officials came to check on the situation, they saw all four members of the Ye family holding their stomachs and looking in pain.

"What's wrong?" You Yong asked.

Yan Ruoli replied: "Sir You, maybe we had a stomachache due to the cool breeze blowing on the road and eating some spicy food. I got some medicine and took it. It should be fine after a sleep."

"It really doesn't matter?"

You Yong wanted to confirm again, mainly because he saw that the faces of these four people were not good-looking.

The expressions on the faces of the four of them are not entirely fake. Anyone who knows that they are being plotted and poisoned by someone they trust will not look much better.

"It really doesn't matter. Don't worry, Master You." Yan Ruoli said.

You Yong has seen Yan Ruoli's medical skills in the past two days, and he felt relieved when he heard what she said.

He warned: "I know you are a doctor, but doctors don't treat themselves. If there is any problem, I will ask the official to go to a nearby town to ask for a doctor."

"Okay, thank you, Master You." Yan Ruoli said with great gratitude.

You Yong gave a few more instructions and left with the officials.

After walking out of the tent, he ordered the people below to let the four members of the Ye family have a good rest and not to disturb them.

Zheng Tiangang and Chu An also came to see the situation, but were dismissed by Yan Ruoli with the same rhetoric.

When Gao Sheng and Liu's mother and son saw this, they secretly smiled and turned around and left.

The two of them complained in their stomachs about catching a cold or eating spicy food. What a quack.

It will be fine after a sleep. Well, that's true. It will be over after a sleep, so of course everything will be fine.

The two returned to the Gao family and listened carefully to the movements of the bullock cart.

The sleeping area is not big, so you can hear any movement.

At first, you could still hear painful groans coming from the tent. After a while, the tent gradually became quiet and there was no sound anymore.

The mother and son looked at each other and smiled.

They could fully imagine what they would see when the officials went to wake those people up early tomorrow morning.

Gao Sheng took advantage of others' unpreparedness, pretended to go to the toilet, and sneaked into the woods.

He took out a knife and made a mark on a tree.

He was about to turn around and leave when suddenly his neck felt cold and a cold blade pressed against his neck.

"Don't make a sound. If you dare to make a sound, I will kill you." A deep and hoarse voice said behind him.

Gao Sheng didn't dare to say anything or move, and let the man carry him deep into the woods.

With a "plop", Gao Sheng was thrown to the ground so hard that his eyes flashed with gold.

He thought it was the person who ordered him to poison, so he struggled to get up and said, "Brother, I have completed the task. Those four people are already dead."

"Really?" A familiar voice came from behind, accompanied by a sneer.

Gao Sheng turned around and took a look, and was so frightened that he almost screamed.

Impossible, absolutely impossible, isn't Ye Weiyun dead?How could it appear here?

Also, he is a paralytic and has to be pushed when walking. How could he carry himself here?

Ye Weiyun played with the knife in his hand, looked at Gao Sheng mockingly, and asked coldly: "Tell me, who sent you to poison me?"

"What, what's poisoning? Why can't I understand?" Gao Sheng wanted to pretend to be confused.

Ye Weiyun exposed him mercilessly: "I pretended to be exiled, pretended to be hostile to us, deliberately broke Gao Liu'er's arm to get close to us, and gave us poisonous osmanthus cake. Do you think it is important whether you answer or not?"

Ye Weiyun flashed and came to Gao Sheng, holding the sharp blade in his hand against his chin.

"I only give you one chance. If you don't tell me, I will cut off your flesh piece by piece."

The icy voice and cold eyes made Gao Sheng feel like he had fallen into an ice cave.

He was trembling, fearful to the extreme, and kept saying: "Little Marquis, spare your life, I say, I say."

After a while, Mrs. Liu felt a little pain in her stomach. She thought she wanted to go to the toilet, so she went into the woods.

A black shadow suddenly fell from the sky and took her deep into the woods.

She saw below that Gao Sheng had his hands and feet tied and his mouth gagged, and she was so frightened that he was out of his mind.

Soon, she found that her hands and feet were also tied, her mouth was gagged, and she was thrown next to Gao Sheng.

Ye Weiyun sat cross-legged in front of them, Yun Danfeng said softly: "I could have spared your lives, but you were so mean-spirited that you ate the sweet-scented osmanthus cake from the oxcart. Even if I wanted to spare you, I couldn't. rise."

The two people instantly realized that the package of the osmanthus cake had been dropped, and what they were eating was poisonous osmanthus cake.

However, they never figured out how the sweet-scented osmanthus cake was dropped.

The two of them looked at Ye Weiyun in horror with abdominal pain as severe as cramps, making "wuwu" sounds in their mouths and struggling desperately.

Ye Weiyun looked at them indifferently.

If Yan Ruoli hadn't dropped her bag and their family of four had eaten the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, they would have looked like this now.

The Gao family was only allowed to lose two lives, which was an advantage for them.

Ye Weiyun looked at them coldly until they died completely, then untied the rope that tied them, pulled off the cloth that blocked their mouths, and took them to a shallower part of the forest, to a clump of poisonous mushrooms.

He returned to the place where Gao Sheng had just marked and hid in the shade of a big tree.

In the middle of the night, the camping ground was extremely quiet, with only the occasional beeping sound of the campfire and the yawn of the night guard.

A dark figure came from a distance, looked in the woods, and soon found the mark on the tree.
