====================

The figure Yuan Xiaoyan saw before he fell into a coma was indeed Nan Fengjing.

Two days ago, Nan Fengjing left the city, rushed thousands of times, and finally brought the antidote back before Yuan Xiaoyan fell into a severe coma.

The poisonous powder that Yuan Xiaoyan used was a kind of poisonous voodoo powder from the Western Regions. It was a chronic lethal poisonous powder. The poisoned person only needed to inhale a small amount, and the poison would pass through the lungs and spread throughout the body.

Weakness, drowsiness, and succubi are only the initial symptoms of the poison. As time goes by, the poisoned person will become more lethargic, and even have symptoms such as coughing up blood and tingling all over the body. In just 20 days, after the inhaler suffers, the final Died of poison.

And tonight, it happens to be the No.20 day.

During this period of time, Lin Jinnian used medicine to relieve Yuan Xiaoyan's painful symptoms when the poison occurred, but it could not cure the poison on Yuan Xiaoyan's body.The poisonous Gu in the Western Regions is extremely vicious, Lin Jinnian tried many methods but couldn't eradicate it, so he could only turn to Xun Yuandao who happened to be in the Eastern Lu of the Western Regions for help.

In Xiyuanchuan, which was renamed Donglu, lived a master who made Gu poison.

By coincidence, Xun Yuandao knew this old man.

When Nan Fengjing rushed back with the antidote, Yuan Xiaoyan was already on the verge of death, his face was as pale as paper, and his facial features were shriveled and lifeless, all exuding a breath of death.

During this period of time, Nan Fengjing was busy with Lei Tingjun's case, and he was at a loss for resources. He seldom went back to his residence. After many days, he brought the antidote back, and saw Yuan Xiaoyan, who was as thin as a stick, and had already stepped into the gate of hell with half a leg. The situation, the heart is like tearing open a long giant scar.

Nan Da Shizi's face seemed to be mourning, Lin Jinnian felt very upset when he saw it, and kicked him out, "There is still half a breath, don't put on a mourning face in advance."

Nan Fengjing's heart was heavy.

About two hours later, Xun Yuandao rushed to the second mansion of the Nanfu.

Nan Fengjing rode every five hundred miles, and returned to Pangzhuang City with the antidote, while Xun Yuandao, who had driven all the way back from Donglu, arrived at a slower pace.

Xun Yuandao was travel-laden, and when he came to the second mansion, what he saw was Nan Fengjing's face that looked like he had eaten half a catty of shit.

Originally thinking that something happened to Yuan Xiaoyan, Xun Yuandao was so frightened that he hurried to Yuan Xiaoyan's room. After asking, he found out that he had been rescued and was resting.

Master Xun Shao was so tired from being shocked that he really didn't bother to complain about Nan Fengjing who had eaten half a catty of shit.He first sent someone to notify Ying Qihong in the capital. Taking advantage of this time, he quickly washed and changed his clothes, and even asked someone to prepare a table for food.

So when Ying Qihong arrived, what he saw was Nan Fengjing with a face as dark as ink, and Xun Yuandao who was eating happily.

Looking from a distance, Nan Fengjing's face was so dark, as if he was watching Xun Yuandao eating shit.

How weird and weird.

Ying Qihong solemnly sat down in front of the two.

The three of them sat facing each other, and when Xun Yuandao had finished eating, Ying Qihong ordered people to take away all the dishes.

"I'm exhausted." Xun Yuandao took a big sip of tea contentedly, "In order to get back, I lost count of the number of horses I lost along the way. I feel like I'm going out of shape."

Nan Fengjing's face was still ugly, Ying Qihong glanced at him, and then asked Xun Yuandao, "Where's the antidote?"

"Bring it back." Xun Yuandao asked Nan Fengjing back, "Didn't I give you the antidote and ask you to come back first?"

Nan Fengjing let out an 'hmm'.

"Has Yuan Xiaoyan been rescued?" Ying Qihong asked.

Nan Fengjing gave another 'hmm'.

"Isn't that enough? There is an antidote, and girl Jin is here, so why are you making such a sad face?" Ying Qihong didn't understand why this fellow was still suffering from a cold, so he couldn't help punching him.

Nan Fengjing sighed, as if he was thinking about something, and asked Xun Yuandao after a while, "How is Donglu doing now?"

At the mention of Donglu, Xun Yuandao's expression turned dark. "It's very chaotic. The imperial court has reduced and exempted local taxes for a year. I didn't expect that Liao Gou, the official in power, is still taxing heavily and illegally collecting taxes for personal use."

"It's unreasonable!" Nan Fengjing couldn't help but punched the table heavily.

"East Lu is located at the junction of Xiangguo and the Western Regions. It was originally located in a remote place, with barren soil and barren fields, and it was difficult to harvest crops. No matter, under the cover of the government, the whole Donglu has become a place of lawlessness."

The rest of the two people at the table were silent, and Xun Yuandao continued: "The government is corrupt and incompetent, and the people are complaining. As far as I know, many aborigines have moved away. Many of the people who stayed were abandoned old people or Orphans, the current Donglu is actually an empty shell, a living city."

The land is small, and no matter how diligent the incumbent is, it is difficult for the incumbent to deceive and benefit from it. It is not a matter of a day or two that there are loopholes in Xiangguo's supervisory system. easy job.

Thinking this way, Ying Qihong felt hesitant, and after a moment of contemplation, he said, "Lei Tingjun's case involved a lot of ministers in the court, and even his power in Donglu was found out by Dali Temple. Two days ago, my father secretly sent my fifth brother to Donglu, and I must have found some evidence to bring my accomplice to justice."

Xun Yuan said: "When I left Donglu, I didn't receive the news that King Xiao was going to Donglu. According to the time calculation, King Xiao should have been ordered to set off after I left Donglu, but I left Gu Li behind. That dog official surnamed Liao disregarded human life and had nothing to gain, so it's hard to guarantee that he would abscond to avoid crime after learning that Lei Tingjun was arrested. Also, I found this item in the local government office."

Xun Yuandao said, and took out a thick book from his body, "I flipped through it, and it was full of accounts. I thought it was the light and dark account books of the Donglu government, but after careful reading, I found out that it was not. The account holder of this account book all wrote the same person, a man named Hana Shiro. I couldn’t figure out who this Hana Shiro was, so I brought the whole book back.”

Ying Qihong took over the account book and looked through it carefully. Sure enough, as Xun Yuandao said, at the end of each account collection clause, the name written by the payee is Hua Shiro.

"Hua Shiro?" Ying Qihong stared at the slightly scribbled name in front of him, searched the handwriting in his mind, but couldn't think of any handwriting similar to this name.

"Looking for such a person without evidence is equivalent to finding a needle in a haystack." Nan Fengjing frowned and said, "If all these accounts come from the government of Donglu, then this 'Hua Silang' is probably just a Just a middleman."

"Lei Tingjun will go to prison, and capital punishment is inevitable. What is more important now is to find out the officials he has colluded with. Anyway, this account book is still useful."

Ying Qihong said, put the book away, and said: "Lei Tingjun belongs to Sixth Brother. Among the military officers, Sixth Brother is most handy in using it. I am afraid it is Lei Tingjun's chess piece. Now this chess piece is taken We uprooted, Sixth Brother will definitely not let it go, he must want to regain the military power of Lei Junying."

Nan Fengjing interjected: "But now the Lei Army is under the temporary control of King Xiao, and according to the court regulations, the prince cannot have actual military power. Sooner or later, the emperor will send another general to take over the Lei Army Camp."

"So, it is very likely that King Zhao will recommend his person to the emperor to take over Lei Junying?" Xun Yuandao asked.

Ying Qihong nodded, "Fifth Brother seldom interferes with government affairs. The person who takes over Lei Junying, Father will definitely choose one of the people recommended by me and Sixth Brother."

Xun Yuandao nodded, "Then who do you plan to recommend?"

Ying Qihong looked at Nan Fengjing, and said slowly, "I would like to recommend His Royal Highness."
