Early in the morning, Qi You and Wei Jiuchao came to Wucheng Bingmasi to look for Zhao Zhao.

They originally planned to come last night, but they heard that Lu Weishi had already left and stayed in the prison overnight, thinking that based on the relationship between the two, he would definitely take care of Zhao Zhao.

The two men went back to their respective homes, but to this day, they are still worried and came together as companions.

Lu Weishi had just walked out of Wucheng Bingmasi, he never thought to bump into Qi You, and frowned imperceptibly.

Qi You also saw him, and hurriedly said, "Wei Shi, is Zhao Zhao okay?"

"He's fine, I stayed with him all night." Lu Weishi stopped them with a slightly tired look on his brows: "You don't have to go, it's not clean inside, go back and go to class together."

"We have already told the school for leave." Qi You said with a smile: "It's all at the door, let's go in and have a look."

Lu Weishi's smile faded: "Alright, seeing you guys will make him feel more at ease."

After saying that, he left lightly with his hands behind his back.

Qi You couldn't help but look back at him.

Wei Jiuchao frowned: "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Qi You paused, "Let's go see Zhao Zhao."

As soon as he stepped into the cell door, he saw a few doctors walking out of the cell surrounded by soldiers.

Someone anxiously asked: "Those people, it's true that none of them can be saved?"

"It looks like I've been poisoned." The doctor sighed, "It's just that my medical skills are limited, and I can't see the clue."

"Do you want to try again?" The jailer grabbed Lang Zhong's sleeve with a mournful face, "You must think of a way. How can you explain why you will die so many times?"

Wei Jiuchao glanced at the jailer who was about to cry without tears, and wondered: "I don't know who has the accident, but the jailer is quite anxious."

Qi You kept walking: "Look at Zhao Zhao first."

"We are also from the Imperial College, our classmates." Qi You was anxious: "What's going on?"

The jailer pushed open the door of the side room, and Zhao Zhao was fast asleep.

The two whispered and discussed: "There is still a living here."

"Young Master Lu specially called it out."

The jailer looked at Zhao Zhao, who had his eyes closed tightly, and heaved a sigh of relief: "He doesn't know the truth, so let's wake him up and let him go."

Zhao Zhao sensed that someone was pushing him, and slowly opened his sleepy eyes as if he had just woken up.

"Wake up." The jailer said impatiently: "It's dawn, let's go quickly."

Zhao Zhao went out and looked around: "Where are the classmates?"

"It was Mr. Lu who protected you and let you go home first."

"What about them?"

"With Prime Minister Lu as the guarantor, there is nothing wrong with it." The jailer was already impatient: "Are you going?"

Qi You and Wei Jiuchao happened to see him and hurried over: "Zhao Zhao, are you not with your classmates?"

Before Zhao Zhao could answer, the jailer was already chasing him away: "You are also from the Imperial College? Hurry up and go to school, and don't wander around our place."

Just as Qi You was about to answer, Zhao Zhao had already grabbed his sleeve and said in a low voice, "Let's go out first."

Qi You glanced down at Zhao Zhao's white knuckles from excessive force, and pulled Wei Jiuchao out of Bing Ma Si quickly.

The three of them left the Army and Horse Division, Zhao Zhao walked quickly, dragged the two of them far away with a sullen face, and did not intend to speak.

Qi You faintly felt that something was wrong: "Where are those people? When we came in, we happened to see a doctor passing by, saying that something happened to someone in the prison?"

"En." Zhao Zhao took a deep breath, his face pale: "They should all be gone... I heard the noise outside early in the morning, and I heard the jailer yelling that those classmates foamed at the mouth overnight and died... And hastily called the doctor to come."

Qi You's heart was shocked: "Is it torture?"

Those in prison are all descendants of aristocratic families, and they are in prison because of the matter of grace. If this matter is not clear, it will definitely provoke criticism from the court.

Zhao Zhao shook his head, as if trying to get out of the nightmare: "I don't know, they were fine when I left."

Early this morning, when he heard the commotion and pushed open the door, he realized something in a blink of an eye: his heart trembled heavily, he quickly closed the door and ran to the bed to take a nap.

Fortunately, those people were busy negotiating with the doctor, so they didn't notice him.

Hearing the footsteps of the two gradually drifting away, he slowly opened his eyes.

Qi You recalled the great poison that the doctor said, and suddenly said: "What did Lu Weishi do when he came here?"

"Him?" Zhao Zhao coughed, "He wants to visit me and give me something."

Qi You paused and said, "What did he give?"

"It's nothing special." Zhao Zhao recalled: "It's all our usual homework, oh, there are also quilts, candles, and potted plants."

Qi You was startled, and his lowered eyes happened to see the wound on Zhao Zhao's face: "Are you injured?"

"En." Zhao Zhao stroked his cheek indifferently: "It's not serious, they have it too."

Qi You's heart trembled, and he suddenly remembered an unremarkable plot in the original book.

The reason why Xiao Langyin was able to succeed to the throne was because the Marquis of Zhenyuan rebelled immediately, and something happened suddenly.

As for the cause of Zhenyuanhou's death, it was just because of a small incident. When he went out, he accidentally bumped against the door frame, and there was a bruise on his knee. As a result, there happened to be money grass in the room. Money grass can repel mosquitoes. There is no harm to people, but if there are wounds on the body, the grass can kill people in an instant, which can be called blood sealing the throat.

The book does not directly state where the money plant comes from, but it is mentioned that Lu Weishi often puts money plants on the window sills in order to repel mosquitoes in summer.

Later, Xiao Langyin succeeded to the throne, and Lu Weishi was also the chief assistant.

Thinking about the poisoning that the doctor said again, Qi You shuddered.

After a while, Zhao Zhao said: "But the injury is not serious, it's just a bruise caused by the dispute during the arrest. What to do now, this matter will not be kept secret for long, the father and brother of those classmates are all respectable people in the court, I'm afraid there will be chaos this time."

Qi You breathed a sigh of relief: "The Bing Ma Si people definitely don't want this matter to be known to others too early, we still have a few days to find out."

"It's impossible even if we haven't found out." Wei Jiuchao knew that Qi You was worried about Yongchi, and comforted him: "Your Majesty still doesn't know about this matter, it's all the idea of ​​the Bingmasi, and it will be a matter of executing a few of the Bingmasi's people at that time." gone."

Qi You shook his head: "Those students are in the Bingma Division, and they are afraid that it will be too late for something to happen. This matter must have nothing to do with them, and we still have to find out the culprit."

A few people walked back to the Imperial College, Qi You said unintentionally: "Zhao Zhao, let's go to Weishi together, he also helped you this time."

The three walked along the eaves to Lu Weishi's window sill, and Qi You knocked on his window: "Weishi."

"Zhao Zhao came out quite quickly." Lu Weishi smiled: "All the classmates came back together?"

"Not yet." Qi You also said with a smile, "I heard it will take a few days."

Lu Weishi smiled: "That's good."

Qi You lowered his eyes and fiddled with the green potted plants on the window sill: "Wei Shi, you are really leisurely and elegant, and you even serve flowers and plants."

"How can the things I raise be useless?" Lu Weishi said with a smile in the corner of his eyes: "This can repel mosquitoes, put it on the window sill, and no mosquitoes will bite me all summer."

Qi You smiled: "Brother Lu, give me one too?"

Lu Weishi looked up at him and said, "It's already autumn, next year."

Qi You smiled, and was about to speak, when Zhao Zhao saw that Lu Weishi was so mean to his friend, he was already displeased, and said, "It's just a potted plant, if you want it, give it to him."

Lu Weishi paused, and said with a smile: "I only have this pot, if Ah You wants it, just take it away."

Qi You thanked him with a smile, and went home holding the potted plant.

The leaves of money grass are thick and big, with a palm-like sensuality, and they are soft and cute when pinched. Qi You looked at it for a long time and felt that it was no different from the green plants that often appear in the flower market in later generations. He could hardly believe it. It is the plant that can kill people as mentioned in the book.

Qi You pondered for a while, pulled out a leaf, examined it carefully under the lamp, and thought hard about the way to prove it.
