Wearing a secret agent with many tricks, the cold and proud prince flirts easily

Suddenly, the prefect's courtyard was surrounded by guards. After searching for a long time, they could not find the assassin.

"Master Wei, my subordinates have not found the assassin. The assassin left something behind." The guard reported outside the main house.

Master Wei heard the silence outside and opened the door.

"What is it?" Lord Wei took the dart from the guard and there was a note on it.

He opened the note, and the font that looked like a startling dragon made him feel very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

He looked at the note and it clearly said:

"The poison this time is red mystical lotus. It can be found in salt, soy sauce and bean paste. The special silver needle I sent you can detect it. Please inform the people quickly and don't let them suffer again."

The note was unsigned, and looking at the familiar font, Master Wei opened the wooden box with doubts and found a pile of silver needles neatly placed inside.

"Come here, take these silver needles to any of the sealed restaurants to check for salt, soy sauce and bean paste. Go back as soon as possible!"

"Yes, my lord."

The guard beside him took the box of silver needles and led the group out of the government office.

The guards acted quickly and returned to the main hall of the government office in a short time.

"Master Wei, my subordinates used these silver needles to check the sealed restaurant. They did detect poison in the salt, soy sauce and bean paste. The poisonous needles turned black."

The guard presented the poisoned salt, soy sauce, bean paste and blackened silver needle.

"Come here with the doctor." Master Wei looked at the blackened silver needle in front of him and ordered immediately.

Soon the doctor came to the main hall.

"Doctor, have you ever heard of the poison Red Mystic Lotus?" Master Wei asked directly when he saw the doctor coming.

"Red Mystical Lotus? Sir, I have been to the border of Northern Mu Country when I was young and have heard of this poison. This poison is tasteless and extremely poisonous. It only takes a small amount to cause death, and it cannot be detected by a silver needle."

The doctor looked at the poisons and blackened silver needles placed in front of Master Wei, thought of something, and asked.

"Sir, is this incident caused by the Red Mysterious Lotus?"

"Well, an anonymous person came to report that the poison in this incident was Red Mystic Lotus. Do you have any way to find out the Red Mystic Lotus?" Mr. Wei has a delicate mind and cannot confirm the note just based on the blackened silver needle on the table. What you said above is correct.

"I'll try it."

I saw the doctor took out his silver needle, stirred it in soy sauce, and then wiped it clean with a handkerchief. As a result, his silver needle did not turn black.

Then, he took out a small jar of medicinal powder from the medicine box he brought.

He used a small silver spoon to take out his white medicinal powder, put it in a clean small dish, and then used a silver spoon to scoop out a small spoonful of poisonous salt and mix it with the white medicinal powder.

In an instant, the mixture of medicinal powder and table salt turned red and finally black.

"Sir, this is indeed the poison of Red Mystic Lotus. I used its color-developing herb Ma Xincao to develop its color. From red to black, it is Red Mystic Lotus. I didn't expect the poison to be hidden in these seasonings. No wonder Your Excellency has been searching for many days but still can’t find it.”

As the doctor said, he put away his things and shook his head with emotion.

"That's easy to handle. Come here and post a notice for me. The poison is hidden in salt, soy sauce and bean paste. Let the people know about it as soon as possible and don't let them eat it by mistake again."

Master Wei's heart dropped halfway. He found the poison, and the subsequent investigation should be quick.

"Yes, sir." The master of the government office agreed and took a few people down to write the notice.

"Zhao Xing, you go out with a group of troops, temporarily seal the city gate, and seal the city for a few days to check the source of the salt, soy sauce and bean paste. I want to get to the bottom of it." Master Wei looked at the guard Zhao Xing on the side and ordered road.

"Subordinates take orders."

"Such a big thing has happened. We need to report it to the Emperor. Liu Decai, please study the ink for me. I have to rush 800 miles to deliver the letter to the Emperor."

Master Wei came out of the pain of losing his son and started writing memorials.

Murong Hao and Lin Yunxi watched everything happening in the government office in the science and technology library, and Lin Yunxi nodded.

"Husband, Master Wei is pretty good, isn't he?" She saw that Master Wei had issued so many orders overnight, so she thought he must be a good official.

"I personally appointed him as the prefect of Dongtan City. I hope he won't disappoint me." Murong Hao looked at Master Wei in front of him with expectation.

"I hope no more people will die because of this matter." Lin Yunxi sighed.

"I hope so." Murong Hao nodded.

"Husband, if something happened to Xi'er's soy sauce and bean paste, would you blame Xi'er?" Lin Yunxi looked sad as she thought about something happening to her seasoning.

"Fool, Xi'er loves the people the most. How can my husband blame you? It's Xi'er's property that is being targeted by evil people. It has nothing to do with Xi'er."

Murong Hao took the person into his arms and comforted the uneasy person in his arms.

"Husband, will Xi'er be impeached by the ministers? After all, it is Xi'er's property."

Lin Yunxi's heart felt clogged when she thought of how many people had been killed by her property. She thought that the ministers in the court would not make it easy for her.

"As long as my husband is here, nothing will happen to my queen. After my husband goes to court tomorrow, let's come over and take a look at the situation here. How about it?"

Murong Hao hugged her tightly. She needed his company most at the moment, and he would accompany her.

"Okay." She hugged Murong Hao, and with him around, the anxiety in her heart slowly subsided.

The two flew to the capital. That night, it was Lin Yunxi's turn to be worried. She really wanted to know who was behind this.

That night, Murong Hao did not torment her. He held her with a worried face and comforted her gently.

"Xier, have a good sleep. It's not your fault. You don't need to worry. Your husband is here, eh?"

His voice was filled with warm comfort, and Lin Yunxi, who had been bored all night, was comforted by the ironing. Seeing her falling asleep, Murong Hao slowly closed his eyes.

"Xier, it's okay, I'm here." He hugged her tightly and had a good night's sleep.

Early in the morning, Lin Yunxi saw Murong Hao getting up, and she got up too.

"Xi'er, it's not yet dawn, you can sleep a little longer. It won't be too late for you to get up when your husband comes back." Murong Hao said gently as he watched Xi'er changing his clothes.

"Xi'er can't sleep. Yesterday, I promised Lian Ruoyin to start working on penicillin today. Today, my husband and I are going to check on the seasonings. I want to take a look at the workshop. After arranging everything, I will set off with my husband."

She was thinking about something in her mind. She couldn't sleep, so she might as well get up and finish the matter.

"That's good, Xi'er doesn't need to worry too much about Dongtan City. You can just be busy with your own property and leave other matters to your husband."

He held Xi'er's frowning face and comforted her softly.

"Okay, my husband is my supporter, Xi'er doesn't have to worry." She forced a smile and tied the jade belt for him.

"Husband, please tie Xi'er's hair. I haven't tied your hair for a long time." Murong Hao held her shoulders and led her to sit in front of the dressing mirror in the villa's bedroom.

Murong Hao slowly smoothed her hair and gently tied up her hair.

Lin Yunxi looked at herself in the mirror. In just one night, her face became so melancholy? She instantly understood Murong Hao's intention. He must have brought her to the mirror because he wanted to make himself happy.

She smiled, her eyes filled with the light of the past again, and her lips curled into a smile...
