Striving to be the successor of the age of Chuanshu

?? In the center of the gorgeous dance floor, there are couples of elegant and handsome couples spinning. The girls' fluffy skirts sway with the music, and the gentlemen with their hands behind their backs tap their toes on the bright tiles.

??A huge golden candlestick hangs from the bright dome, countless burning candles exude dazzling light, as if immersed in this extravagant and dreamy ball.

?? Qianyan stood beside the princess, keeping her eyes on the woman next to the throne—the queen.

??The queen is wearing a wine-red brocade dress. It is said that the fabric comes from the far east. The pattern is exquisite and noble.

??The princess turned her head suddenly, "Rose, please help me go to the kitchen to fetch an apple."

??——Rose is the name of Qianyan's character after she wears the book.

??apple.

?? poisonous apple.

??Thousands of book-traveling experiences told Qian Yan that this apple will open the main line of the story of "Poisoned Apple".She tried to ask the princess about her intention to take the apple, but she was worried that the princess was a villain, so she agreed silently for the time being.

?? In the kitchen there is only one pastry chef fiddling with the shapeless net of brushed sugar.

?? Seeing Qian Yan, Zhang Di was shocked, "God Yan, why are you here? Hurry up, help me, the chef asked me to make a sugar cover for chocolate desserts, but how could I do it? I tried it It's been five or six times, and I can't stand still!"

?? Qianyan couldn't understand, "Do you know you are taking a midterm exam now? Why are you so serious about being a chef? Shouldn't you be looking for clues, pushing the plot, and saving the decent?!"

"Oh, yes, yes," Zhang Di remembered, "Just now Li Hongqi came to me and said that the prince asked him to bring some red wine to the dance, and that the prince gave him medicine to drink in the wine .”

??——Li Hongqi is the envoy who accompanied the prince to visit.

?? Qianyan saw the clue, and asked quickly: "Who is the wine prepared for?"

??"Princess."

?? Qianyan thought silently for a moment.

?? Zhang Di saw the needle: "So the prince is the villain, and the princess is the decent, right?"

"Not necessarily," Qian Yan picked out hot sugar from a small iron pot, twisted it in the air a few times, and a bird's nest-style brushed cover was formed, "It's also possible that the princess is a villain, and the prince wants to get rid of the The villain poisoned the princess."

?? Li Hongqi looked at the transparent and delicate sugar silk cover on the desk, and was about to blurt out countless sentences of "Niu Pi", but was interrupted mercilessly by Qian Yan: "Has the wine been given to Li Hongqi?"

?? Zhang Di: "Yes, he took it. I don't know if the medicine was taken or not."

?? "Okay, get me an apple." Qian Yan said quickly.

"Oh good." Saying that, Zhang Di hurried to the storage room behind the kitchen.

?? At this time, another person came to the kitchen.

??As soon as he entered the door, he lifted the heavy skirt and rubbed against Qian Yan, "Yan, you are still here!"

??Lu Xi is the most gorgeously dressed among them-her identity is the mistress of the king.

??According to her own statement, the reason why she chose this role is because this role has the highest status in the NPC. If something happens during the exam, the palace guards can be mobilized in time to help.

?? Lu Xi looked Qianyan up and down, "Why did you choose the princess maid? It's hard to wear back to the book, and it's so shabby."

??Qianyan didn't bother to pay attention to her nonsense, and asked directly: "You are not staying with the king, what are you doing here?"

"Woooo..." Lu Xi was pitiful, "You don't know, not long after you left, the king died suddenly and died at the ball. I was so scared. It was the first time I saw a dead person. It was so cruel. "

??Qianyan pushed her hands away from her body, "What are the symptoms of the king's sudden death?"

??When Lu Xi thought of that situation, goosebumps all over his body, "He... He fell down suddenly, then kept cramping, and vomited a lot of white foam, which was terrible."

?? Typical symptoms of poisoning.

?? Qian Yan: "Before that, did he drink red wine?"

??Lu Xi thought for a while, "Drink it, it was sent by the princess."

?? Qianyan: "Princess?"

?? Lu Xi: "Yes, when the prince introduced it to her, he said that the wine was brought from their own country, and the taste was different from that here. Then the princess said that the king should have a taste first."

??At this time, the kitchen door was broken open again, and Li Hongqi rushed in, wearing a gold and white envoy robe. Seeing the two of them, he gasped and said, "It's good that you stay here, over there at the ball... Lin Xiaoguo is dead! He's dead!"

??Lu Xi was shocked, "How did you do it?!"

?? Qianyan seemed to be expecting it, "Did they ask her to observe the stars, but she didn't say anything, and then she was executed?"

??Li Hongqi nodded frantically.

??Qianyan sighed, and mourned for this disappointing team member for a second, "When Lin Xiaoguo chose that role, I wanted to say that, usually in palace literature, an astrologer will be asked to observe the stars on the spot, and then tell everyone Explain. In addition to being able to read Tarot cards, she also has something to do with fortune-telling, hey... Her early death is expected."

?? Lu Xi seems to have seen his end.

?? "And you," Qianyan's attack naturally won't let her go, "Don't go in front of the protagonist if you have nothing to do. Senior sister Yi Wu is also at the ball, she must have recognized you."

?? Lu Xi was frightened, "ah? Am I so easily exposed?"

?? Qianyan shook her head speechlessly, "Apart from your clothes, you are a bit flabbergasted, you don't walk or talk like a king's mistress at all. If senior sister is really as powerful as you say, she should know that you are not the first time she sees you. An NPC."

?? Lu Xi looked pale.

?? What did Qian Yan think of, "Huh? Why did Zhang Di go there for so long? Just take an apple..."

??! !

??A terrifying thought flashed through her mind like lightning, Qian Yan rushed to the storage room like a wind, and when she opened the door, she saw——

?? Li Hongqi ran after him, and the moment he saw Zhang Pastry Chef Di's body, he yelled hoarsely, but Qian Yan covered him, "Don't shout, you will attract everyone later. coming."

??Li Hongqi nodded stiffly.

??Qianyan let go of her hand, grabbed Lu Xi who was about to run away when she saw the corpse, "When you were at the ball, did you see any of the protagonists eat the snacks sent by the kitchen? "

??Lu Xi almost cried in fright, "Yes, yes... yes, the queen ate it, and then said it tasted strange..."

?? Li Hongqi was nervous, "What does it have to do with dim sum?"

??Qian Yan frowned and explained: "The taste of the dim sum made by Zhang Di is definitely different from that made by the royal pastry chef. If senior sister Yi Wu is wearing a queen, then when she tastes the dim sum, she should I already guessed that someone in the back kitchen is not an NPC..."

?? Lu Xi rushed to answer: "So the senior sister secretly sent someone to the back kitchen to knock out Zhang Di?"

??Qianyan was noncommittal, thinking for a while, "No, I have to go back to the ball, you two... hey, forget it, let it be."

?? As soon as the voice fell, the person left.

??Leaving the two rookies staring at the other rookie reflected in each other's pupils, they sighed at the same time...it was too difficult.

??The dance scene was in chaos, the king's body was moved away, and all the guests were detained by the palace guards.

??Qianyan found the princess at a glance, and walked over in three steps at a time, "Dear Your Highness, something happened in the back kitchen. A pastry chef was found dead in the storage room. I can't get the apple you asked for."

?? The princess nodded slightly.

??——The movements are elegant, and there is no trace of a real person. There is a high probability that she will not be the senior sister, Qian Yan analyzed it in this way.

?? "His Royal Highness, may I ask what happened here just now?" Qian Yan asked in a low voice.

??The princess's voice was gentle: "Father accidentally drank poisonous wine and died of poisoning."

?? "Where does the poisoned wine come from?" Qian Yan asked.

??The princess looked sad, "It was... Prince Jialai sent it to me. I just wanted my father to taste it, but who knows..."

?? Qian Yan searched around, but did not see the prince.

?? He secretly thought that the prince should have been detained, so he found an excuse to leave here.

??Going down to the dark and messy dungeon, Qian Yan found that Li Hongqi was hiding in a corner. She avoided the guard's sight, crawled beside him, and lowered her voice, "What are you doing here?"

?? Li Hongqi seemed to see a savior, "I am an envoy brought by the prince. Now that the prince has been arrested, I am afraid. I am afraid that they will find me. The most dangerous place is the safest place. I..."

??'Speechless' is the feeling that Qianyan repeated the most times today. She really hates iron and steel: "This is an exam, and every action you take means that you will expose yourself to NPCs, but this is not where you hide The reason is that you have to bear the danger, and you have to take the initiative to find clues."

??"But……"

What did Li Hongqi want to say, but Qian Yan suddenly raised the question, "I'll lure the guards away, and you go talk to Prince Jialai, ask about the accomplices, and his purpose of poisoning the princess."

?? Li Hongqi was extremely resistant, "Isn't the answer obvious? The princess is a good person, why don't we just rescue the princess?"

?? Qianyan patted him on the head, "You don't even know the relationship between the three protagonists, so don't draw conclusions so early."

"It's getting late," Li Hongqi's words were full of prayers, "The time hourglass shows that there are only six or ten minutes left..."

??It has been grinding for half an hour?

??Qian Yan picked up Li Hongqi and said in a dangerous tone, "If that's the case, I'll trouble you to go out and lure him away!"

??After speaking, he kicked Li Hongqi out.

?? Li Hongqi staggered a few steps, flapping the air with his hands and feet. After standing still, he found that all the guards were attracted to him.

?? Everyone was stunned for a while, reacted for a moment, and suddenly ran towards him.

??Li Hongqi can't do anything, Survival No.1, immediately ran away, causing all the guards to catch up!

??The cell lost its guard in an instant.

??The sound of footsteps went away, and the cell became quiet.

??Qianyan came out from the corner, squatted at the cell door, and lowered her voice: "Prince Jialai, I'm here to save you."

??The prince turned around when he heard the sound, "Who are you?"

?? Qian Yan: "I am your father's spy in the castle. You are in danger now. I will rescue you. The horses are ready outside, and someone will take care of you."

"No, you were not arranged by my father," the prince immediately exposed her, "I know you, you are the maid of the princess, did your highness ask you to save me?"

??Could it be that he and the princess are in the same group?

??Qianyan thought for half a second, and immediately reacted: "Yes, Her Royal Highness secretly ordered me to rescue you, but I hope you can keep this secret."

??The prince breathed out, "Okay, please tell the princess, thank you for her kindness. After I marry her in the future, I will definitely do my best to help her win the queen's throne."

?? NPCs with 80% humanoid level are actually not difficult to distinguish—at least not difficult for Qianyan, but she is not sure how strong the camouflage ability of senior sister Yi Wu is.If the prince was dressed by his senior, then any words he says now may lead him in the wrong direction.

??The prince was waiting with great anticipation for Qianyan to open the prison door for him.

?? Qianyan suddenly showed a smirk, and the prince's heart trembled when she saw it, and she said, "Your Highness, I'm sorry, but I'm actually the queen's eyeliner next to the princess, so I can't help you, and I will go to The banquet hall exposes the relationship between you and the princess, thank you for your information, and may the Lord bless you."

??The prince's expression changed, "You...you lied to me?!"

??His reaction is very real, which is completely in line with the demeanor that NPCs can show when they are deceived.

??But the psychological hint of 'Senior Yi Wu will confuse the public' is like an empty plastic bottle floating on the water. No matter how you press it down, it pops out from time to time. Qianyan suspects that she is a little bit dazed.

?? After the exam is over, we must find someone to investigate Yi Wu's performance in various subjects in the past two years, to see how good she is.

?? After clearing up these messy thoughts, Qianyan has reached a preliminary conclusion.

??The prince is one of the villains, and there is a high probability that he is not a senior——

?? I don't know why, although Qianyan doesn't know this senior, she always feels that an excellent person will leave a way out for herself at any time, instead of being trapped in a cell alone like the prince is now, At the mercy of others.
