Chapter 1157 Suspicion Cannot Convict

refore, Little Green can connect with you spiritually.""Even if you don't enter the space in the future, you can still contact Xiao Lv and give him instructions."Fāng Jǐnxīu was stunned for a moment....Chapter 1157: Suspicion Cannot Convict

Zhao Yun stood there, utterly dumbfounded. What did it mean to just be satisfied

After a while, Zhao Yun came to his senses and was so angry that he wanted to slap himself.

It's all his fault for talking too much along the way. He kept saying how the first place would be taken by Herrely, and the Marquis thought he was dissatisfied and wanted to get first place.

Indeed, he didn't want Hellrie to take first place to show off. But it wasn't for himself.

He just felt that Hellrie's hunting was simply no match for the Duke. If the Duke lost to him, he would definitely be ridiculed and mocked by his spiteful words. He was doing all this for the Duke!

Zhao Yun handed a sack full of game to his guard. He looked at himself, covered in dirt and twigs, with leaves stuck in his hair, and his clothes torn in several places.

"All of you, take the prey to His Majesty first. I'll go back and freshen up and change my clothes, then I'll join you."

"Yes!"

On the way back, Zhao Yun was still thinking, the lord's all-out hunting appearance was too frightening. Perhaps the lord hadn't even used his full strength.

He was hurrying along, hunting as he went, which was terribly alarming.

Luckily, he and the Marquis were on the same side. If the Marquis became an enemy and they had to fight each other with swords and guns, that would be truly terrifying. Just thinking about it is a nightmare.

How could he possibly win

Zongyu hurried back to the tent and saw Mujin guarding outside from afar.

When he walked in, Hibiscus's expression visibly panicked, and she immediately shouted.

"The Marquis is back!"

Zongyu walked up to her, "Go down."

The hibiscus was afraid of him, so she hurriedly nodded and went down first, crawling into the tent next to it.

Zong Yu pushed open the tent flap and strode in. The first thing he saw was Fang Jinxiu's surprised expression, who then got up to greet him.

"How come you're back so early"

It seems like there's still half an hour until the hunt ends.

How was your harvest today

Zongyu's gaze never left Fang Jinshu's face, trying to find a clue.

But there was not, not a single flaw.

Fang Jinshi's expression was so natural, as if she hadn't been anywhere and had just been waiting for him to return in the tent all along.

Zongyu sighed inwardly. His wife was just that capable. If she didn't want you to see through her, there wouldn't be a single clue.

Let's just be straight about it.

"Jinxiu, you shouldn't have taken this risk."

Fang Jinshu was stunned, "What are you saying I don't understand."

"Have you been hunting for so long You must be thirsty. Drink some water."

She poured a glass of water and handed it to Zong Yu. Zong Yu reached out to take it, but hesitated when he brought it to his lips.

"What did you add to the water again"

Fang Jinshi was starting to feel uneasy. She had secretly come on this adventure to assassinate Hellie, and felt deeply guilty about it. Knowing Zong Yu's temperament, he must have discovered something. Otherwise, there wouldn't be such a probing question in his voice.

"It's medicine."

"It won't hurt you."

As soon as Fang Jinxiu's words fell, Zong Yu opened his mouth and drank the water from under the quilt in one gulp.

"Don't you ask what kind of medicine it is"

Zongyu looked at her, "Wife, whatever you do, I'll be on your side, so don't keep anything from me."

"I know you were just at the hunting grounds, there are your footprints."

"Did the Mulberry Clan disguise you as Zhao Xingzhou"

Fang Jinxiu smiled wryly, as expected, she had been seen through by Ah Yu.

“You're really perceptive. It's scary how much you can see.”

Zongyu followed her back to the chair and sat down, saying, "They were all trained in the army."

"Tell me, what did you do to Hellie"

She went to so much trouble to hide and enter the hunting ground, wasn't it just to take Helrith's life

"Why didn't you do it"

"Why are you appearing with Herdle" Fang Jinshi retorted angrily.

Zong Yu said, “I sensed something was amiss. My intuition told me that following him would lead me to the answers.”

Upon hearing this answer, Fang Jinshi was both angry and amused.

"Then I guess I still have to be one step ahead of you, smart guy."

"Marquess Wuding is truly both intelligent and valiant! This little trick of mine is nothing compared to your prowess."

Zongyu frowned, "I didn't mean that."

"Jinxiu, don't risk your safety for something like this, I'll worry."

Fang Jinxiu instantly retracted her smile, "I know."

"That's why I chose to hide it from you. If I had told you about my plan to infiltrate the hunting grounds beforehand, would you have agreed"

"Of course not," Zong Yu immediately said.

Fang Jinshui smiled with amusement.

"I knew it."

"Don't worry, I'm not desperate enough to sacrifice myself for an enemy."

"That wild goat, I put poison on its fleece."

“This time, even Heaven seems to be on my side. Herle never bothers to pick up prey himself, yet he went out of his way to grab that goat. It seems his fate was sealed here.”

"He is destined to die by my hand!"

Zong Yu glanced at the teacup on the table, "So, was I poisoned just now Was there an antidote in the cup"

Fang Jinxiu shook her head.

"Actually, there's only half. This drug powder was made by me to kill Hereltte. Inhaling it alone does no harm; at most, it will just give you diarrhea."

"Once alcohol is consumed and enters the bloodstream, it combines with drug powder to form a highly potent toxin that acts instantly. This poison is so deadly that even a god would be unable to save someone from its effects."

"So I have 100% certainty that I can kill him and walk away unharmed."

"You really don't have to worry."

"What I just gave you was medicine to relieve your diarrhea, and I certainly don't want you to have another bout."

Zongyu nodded, listening to his wife's entire plan and finally feeling much more at ease.

Next time, you can tell me, and I'll give him the drug. Wouldn't that be faster

When it comes to this Fang Jinshui, she gets a little angry again.

"And you, what do you say I had everything arranged perfectly, Herleith would die from poison at the bonfire gathering."

The Xixia delegation, even if they wanted to investigate, found no poison in the food or drink. They were completely unable to find anything.

"You're something else, while everyone else runs away from Herlle as far as they can, you just have to hang around with him for over an hour."

"When he's dead at night, the mission people won't find anything unusual in the alcohol and will surely turn their attention to those who had contact with Herrle. You, as his close associate, will be the first suspect!"

Zong Yu nodded.

"I guess so."

But his expression seemed to be indifferent.

"Your drug powder, would it be that easy to find out"

Fang Jinshu shook her head. "Of course not, I was very precise with the dosage. Herre and his guards have rubbed most of the powder off the sheep."

And to my knowledge, the sheep has already been skinned and sent over the fire to be roasted. The mutton is poison-free.

Even if they thought this far ahead, they wouldn't be able to figure out what kind of powder it was.

"Then what are you worried about" said Zong Yu, nodding.

“They also have no evidence, suspicion cannot convict.”ruth, are they really your illegitimate children from outside"Before, she wasn't against the idea of taking a concubine for Zongpingchuan. Instead of waiting for men to cheat outside, it was better to...
