Chapter 26 The Uninvited Guest

The re-lit candle made a 'chi chi' sound, and the flame danced strangely with the night wind. The man was still dressed in black, with a frosty face...

Yu Xun looked at Bei Yaofei who was walking slowly, and got up to greet him, "Why is Hero Bei coming to the pavilion when you have time? Isn't he planning to go to Yue Kingdom?"

Bei Yaofei walked up to him with a cold face, suddenly squinted his hawk eyes, and shot like lightning, directly grabbing Yu Xun's throat.

Startled, Jiang Tian instantly pulled out the golden rattan sword hidden in his waist, and slashed at Bei Yaofei's wrist with his backhand.Bei Yaofei withdrew his hands and turned around, turning his palms into fists, attacking Jiang Tianyi's chest.As soon as Jiang Tian didn't hide, he drew out his sword, met Bei Yaofei's fist and stabbed it out.

A cold smile crept onto Bei Yaofei's flirtatious purple thin lips, as soon as he let go, a puff of blue smoke flew straight towards Jiang Tian's door.Jiang Tianyi flew back immediately, but the room was too small, and some powder got into his nose.He felt dizzy and weak all over, but he didn't let go of the sword in his hand, and returned to Yu Xun's side with the last bit of strength he had left, protecting him with his body.

Bei Yaofei smiled ironically, "It's quite loyal."

Yu Xun supported the crumbling Jiang Tianyi, and looked at Bei Yaofei anxiously, "What poison did you poison him? Untie him quickly."

When Xie Ximing heard that he was poisoned, his face immediately turned pale, "Hero Bei, let's talk if we have something to say, Xiaotian is still young and ignorant, so don't argue with him."

Bei Yaofei sat at the table calmly and looked at everyone coldly.

Jiang Tianyi gradually lost his strength, Xie Ximing hugged him in his arms.Seeing this, Yu Xun frowned and said, "Bei Yaofei, what do you want?"

"Not much. Let him be quiet."

Yu Xun looked at him a little depressed, and thought, "Why can't this person speak well?"

"Hong Yuxun, your wishful thinking is good!" Bei Yaofei gave him a mocking look, and the undisguised bloodthirsty and murderous aura slowly filled the room, Yuxun couldn't help but his heart trembled, but he didn't show it.

Although Jiang Shuihan lacked confidence due to Bei Yaofei's aura, he still raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "Bei Yaofei, tell me clearly, why did His Highness plot against you? We have been helping you find someone! Well, Your Highness has been tortured by that Chi Pengyan, you ungrateful villain!"

Bei Yaofei's eagle eyes slanted, and another wisp of green smoke flew out with the flick of his fingers.

Jiang Shuihan also had some skills. He picked up the tea on the table and poured it on the incoming poisonous smoke.

"Hmph, I have some brains. But, if you don't want this kid to have something to do, just be honest." He picked up an empty cup on the table and made himself a cup of tea, and began to sip carefully.

Yu Xun sat opposite him feeling helpless, and asked, "What do you mean by coming to me?"

"You don't know?" Bei Yaofei squeezed out four words between his teeth, then lowered his eyes and sipped his tea.

"Okay, if you don't tell me, I'll guess." After Yu Xun finished speaking, he looked at the three people standing beside him and said, "Sit down, too."

Xie Ximing hugged Jiang Tianyi horizontally in his arms, looked at Bei Yaofei coldly, "Can Hero Bei please detoxify Xiaotian first?"

Bei Yaofei ignored him and looked at Yu Xun.

Yu Xun frowned, and said to Xie Ximing, "Don't worry, Xiaotian will be fine."

Xie Ximing nodded helplessly, and hugged the person in his arms tightly in distress.

Yu Xun said to Bei Yaofei: "You came to Xingshi to inquire about the crime? Do you think I sent someone to kill Wei's father and son, and then wanted to blame you on Caohetang?"

Bei Yaofei's eagle eyes slanted slightly, the cold light was piercing, and there were three words clearly in his eyes: Isn't it?

"What good does it do me to blame you Caohetang? Your Caohetang is nothing more than a sect in the Jianghu. What use is there for the court and Hongguo?"

Bei Yaofei was silent, he really didn't think so much, but after knowing that Wei's father and son were killed, his first reaction was to come to Yu Xun to settle the score.He rushed to the Chu Palace in a hurry, but not only failed to find him, but also had a fight with the brothers and sisters He Borui. Although He Borui recognized him and apologized to him, he was very upset and always felt that he was being used by Yu Xun .

"To be honest, we are also wondering if you did it."

"what!"

Two murderous auras approached Yu Xun, and Yu Xun shook his head helplessly, repeating what he knew.Bei Yaofei gradually calmed down, looking at Yu Xun's clear eyes, he was speechless for a while.

"Now it's obvious that someone is going to blame Yue Guo and start a war. As for you, you may have been used, but it's not me." Yu Xun paused for a moment, then said: "It's better for you not to get involved. .Only a few of us know that you went to the Wei Mansion to arrest people, and I promise you to keep it secret. So," he frowned slightly, as if he had made up his mind, and said, "You can hide as far as you can, don't Get involved with me and my brother again."

"We want to throw it aside when we're done using it?"

"Don't be ignorant! His Highness has let you go and removed your suspicions, what else do you want?" Xie Ximing was really a little annoyed, and said again: "In my opinion, who knows if you are acting! You really should You turn it over to the yamen for a proper trial!"

Bei Yaofei still ignored Xie Ximing, staring at Yu Xun coldly, "I want to see Mando Rosemary."

Yu Xun froze for a moment, shook his head and said, "Don't get involved, if something goes wrong, I may not be able to protect you."

"Don't you want to know if the murderer is from Yue Kingdom? I can help you find out."

"but……"

"Mando rosemary is not planted by us. We use black birch rosemary and Wangyousan. Only our Caohetang has these two medicines. And I can guarantee that no one will be able to find out, because these two medicines are inherently harmful. There is no harm to the human body, and there will be no residue, at most it will give people the illusion of sleepwalking."

Xie Ximing still stared at him hostilely, and said, "Why should we trust you? How do I know that you approached His Highness not to destroy the evidence?"

Yu Xun looked at Jiang Tianyi in Xie Ximing's arms, and said in his heart: "If you don't agree, I'm afraid Xiaotian's life will be confessed. It's good to let him follow, and we can see what he is doing. If they really did it Yes, I’m not afraid that he won’t show his feet.”

After thinking about it, he immediately smiled and said: "Okay. How about this, you go to the government office with me tomorrow, watch Feng Wenda's trial together, and just look into that mandala rosemary, how about it?"

Bei Yaofei nodded.

Yu Xun said again: "Then you go back to the Chu Palace with me. I'll get you a bodyguard's clothes, and you will go to the yamen with me tomorrow."

Bei Yaofei was silent for a while, then reached out and took out a black porcelain bottle from his bosom, unplugged it, and a faint fragrance of plum blossoms wafted into the room.He put the mouth of the bottle under Jiang Tianyi's nose, Jiang Tianyi immediately regained his strength, stretched out his hand, one grabbed Bei Yaofei's right hand holding the medicine bottle, and the other directly hit Bei Yaofei's face.

Bei Yaofei raised the corner of his mouth, and raised his hand to get entangled with the danger coming from his face.After four or five moves in the blink of an eye, Jiang Tianyi couldn't catch him. With a flick of his right hand, Bei Yaofei broke free from Jiang Tianyi's restraint. With a circle and a hook with his left hand, he bypassed Jiang Tianyi's fierce attack and went straight to Xie Ximing's throat.Jiang Tian broke out in a cold sweat in shock, and rushed over desperately...

Yu Xun helplessly reached out and grabbed Xie Ximing's collar, dragging him out of danger.

Jiang Tian stopped on the spot in a daze, looked at Bei Yaofei who suddenly stopped, and Xie Ximing who had reached the safe area, and retreated to Yu Xun's side with some fear.

Yu Xun smiled wryly, and pushed Xie Ximing to Jiang Tianyi, "Little Tian, ​​stop being rude to Hero Bei."

Jiang Tianyi clutched the corner of Xie Ximing's clothes tightly, and looked at Yu Xun with some grievances, "Your Highness, this person cannot be trusted."

"why?"

"Because... Ming said!"

Xie Ximing looked at Jiang Tianyi with a serious face, and said softly: "Xiaotian, Your Highness has decided to trust Hero Bei and the others, so we don't need to talk much."

Jiang Tianyi still looked at Yu Xun worriedly, and Yu Xun smiled and said, "Maybe Xiaotian will go with me too?"

"Really?"

"Well, if you can disguise yourself as a fool, you can follow."

"Hmm, yes."

Yu Xun smiled mischievously, "Little Tian, ​​you are a head shorter than Meng, how can you pretend?"

"Your Highness..." Jiang Tian became anxious when he heard this one by one, "Does it have to be He Bomeng? Can He Borui do it?"

"How can you bring a girl to investigate the case? You, accompany your little crab to Fumanlou to eat crabs tomorrow, and I will spend the money."

Jiang Tian looked at Xie Ximing, shook his head and said, "No, I have to follow Your Highness. I'll pretend to be He Borui. It should be normal for His Highness to have a guard and a maid by his side."

Bei Yaofei watched them frolicking coldly, feeling very upset. He was an outsider, but when he saw Yu Xun getting close to others, he felt inexplicably restless.He gritted his teeth secretly, and directly said against this irritability: "Let him follow, so that no one will feel uneasy."

For a moment, Yu Xun saw the displeasure in Bei Yaofei's eyes, and it disappeared in a flash. Without waiting for him to think about it, Jiang Tianyi smiled proudly: "You still know a little bit about yourself. Your Highness, Your Highness, take me there?"

Yu Xun nodded hesitantly, "Okay then."

On the second day, Yu Xun brought Bei Yaofei's bodyguards and Jiang Tianyi's He Borui to the Youcheng government office.Feng Wenda greeted him from afar.Yu Xun lied that Bei Yaofei had been a headhunter for a few days, and wanted him to see the evidence.Feng Wenda thought it was Yu Xun's helper, and presented the evidence he had collected without saying a word.

Bei Yaofei took a little ashes from the smoker, sat at the table and began to tinker.Jiang Tianyi followed Yu Xun, looked left and right, and then stood beside Bei Yaofei.Bei Yaofei quickly identified the type of drug, but he frowned and said nothing. Instead, he picked up the dart that killed Sun Wan'er, and began to study the drug carefully.

When Jiang Tian saw Bei Yaofei's eyebrows furrowed deeper and deeper, he thought he didn't understand, and said with a smile: "Isn't Guard Bei very powerful? Why? Can't tell?" He also took some ashes from the smoker , tasted it a little, a string in his mind suddenly tensed, he reached out and snatched the dart from Bei Yaofei's hand, put it under his nose and sniffed it, and then he was shocked, "Your Highness, this is... um..."

Before Jiang Tian could finish his sentence, he was gagged by a steamed stuffed bun that Bei Yaofei got from somewhere.Bei Yaofei winked at Yu Xun, and said loudly: "Your Highness, this is just ordinary mandala rosemary, called Changzui, which is made of mandala rosemary and orange Roko grass. And this dagger The poison on it is not uncommon, it is the purple blood dew made from the narcissus root and the juice of the poisonous arrow wood. Both can be obtained in the rivers and lakes."

Jiang Tian took a bite of the steamed stuffed bun, looked at the natural Bei Yaofei with some doubts, and thought, "Why is he opening his eyes and talking nonsense? He thought I didn't understand. These two poisons are clearly unique to the Yue Kingdom. How did it become an ordinary poison in his mouth?"

Jiang Tian opened his mouth to argue, but Yu Xun pulled him, blinked, and said with a smile, "I said it couldn't be Yue Kingdom. Ruier, are the buns delicious?"

Jiang Tian couldn't catch his breath, and was so choked that he rolled his eyes. Yu Xun hurriedly moved the water in front of him. He drank the water, looked up at Yu Xun who was smiling kindly, nodded and said, "It's delicious."

Feng Wenda looked at Yu Xun in embarrassment, then looked at Bei Yaofei, frowned and said, "Your Highness, what the guard Bei said is true, but I have asked Mr. Wang from the Royal Hospital to see the two poisons. The raw materials and formulas of the two are only available in the Yue Kingdom." Looking up at Bei Yaofei again, Feng Wenda said again: "I don't know if the rivers and lakes mentioned by the guard Bei belong to the Hong Kingdom, or to the Yue Kingdom?"

Bei Yaofei laughed and said: "How can the world be divided into Hongguo or Yueguo? As the saying goes, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes."

Yu Xun didn't expect Feng Wenda to move so fast, and actually invited Doctor Wang.He knew that this old man was not only a master of apricot forest, his ancestors practiced medicine for generations, with superb skills, but also a number one figure in the court and even in the whole country.Sighing secretly, he thought: "Feng Wenda's words are probably true, but Bei Yaofei knew that I didn't want to get involved in Yueguo, so he stopped Xiaotian and lied that it could be obtained in Jianghu."

Bei Yaofei cupped his fists at Feng Wenda, "Lord Feng, please forgive me. Doctor Wang has been in the palace for decades, and he certainly doesn't know anything about Jianghu. How can he be sure that these two kinds of poison are not available in our country?" ?”

Feng Wenda looked at the domineering Bei Yaofei, and said in his heart: "This person is by no means a simple bodyguard, maybe he is an extraterrestrial expert invited by King Yi for the prince."

"You kid is so unreasonable. I've been in the palace for decades and don't know what's going on in the Jianghu?!"

Just as they were at a stalemate, a thick and powerful voice came to everyone's ears.Bei Yaofei raised his eyes, and saw a half-blown old man in his fifties entering through the door.A piece of gold inlaid jade carving in the style of mountains and rivers around his waist shone with dazzling golden light as he walked steadily. Bei Yaofei was startled for a while. Mountain Sacred Hand Wang Shibi, Mr. Wang?"

The old man smiled and said, "I still have some eyesight. This old man is." After finishing speaking, he turned around and saluted Yu Xun, "The old minister has seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"You're being polite, sir." Yu Xun knew that the old imperial doctor belonged to Han Qi's gang, and he had refused to save him many times, so this time there might be some trouble.Looking helplessly at Bei Yaofei who twitched his brows slightly, he thought to himself: "This one is probably going to be cheated..."

Sure enough, the old man turned around leisurely and said to Bei Yaofei: "Black hair and silver gray eyes, and he knows the raw materials of these two special poisons, hehe, you are number one in the Jianghu."
