After the Legend Chapter 129: Spy (Part 1)
As soon as the attendant in charge of cleaning found the jug, he immediately reported it to Jada. Jada rushed over to see that it was the jug, and immediately called someone to check. Who brought the jug back, last night to this morning In between, someone has been in and out of the front palace.
Mint looked at the jug carefully and found that it was much heavier than the normal jug. Although it was gold with gemstones, the weight... He shook the jug, and the remaining wine in it collided with the jug. Wall, made a crisp sound, smelled the wine, and then tapped it with a poison stick. This wine... seems to be non-poisonous, right?
But is this wine really left over that day? The aroma is clear, not like the residual wine from a few days ago.
Mintel suddenly felt a little weird, shook the jug again, tapped the body of the jug again, and immediately found the clue. Open the lid and check carefully along the rim of the spout.
Jada noticed his movement and raised his hand to tell Sargent to stop talking and walk over to him.
Minte took out a dagger and pried it off, prying off the rim of the pot. It turned out that the mouth of the pot could be separated from the body of the pot. Once removed, it revealed the interlayer inside, and in the interlayer, there was still wine remain. Minte put the poison test stick in, and when he took it out, the silver tip was completely black. Mint frowned.
Sargent's eyes widened and he took a deep breath: "So the poison was poured out from here!" Jada silently took the jug, looked at it, and suddenly reached out and moved near the handle of the jug. Only a slight "click" sound was heard, and the hole in the pot leading to the spout was sealed by a piece of deep metal, and the pot could still pour out wine, but it was already inside the interlayer of the pot wall. of poisoned wine.
Jada sighed: "It seems that Lawler intends to use this jug to pour normal fruit wine for the Queen Mother, win my trust, and then ask me to pour poisonous wine to His Majesty. I remember he handed me the jug to me. At that time, my fingers kept rubbing the area near the handle. I didn't notice it at the time. Now that I think about it, it must have been done at that time. But I don't understand. Why the wine he poured to the Queen Mother was also poisoned What?"
Minte picked up the lid of the pot and looked at it, then looked at the body of the pot, and frowned, "There seems to be some slight scars next to this gem, has it been damaged by someone? Also, the metal that seals the pot's mouth. It doesn't seem to be in harmony with this pot, and anyone who sees it will think it's weird, right?"
Jada thought about it. He put down the pot: "You don't need to think about these trivial things. Now there is material evidence to prove that Lawler did intend to murder Your Majesty, or the real murderer who killed the Queen Mother, those who spread rumors should also shut up. !”
Since Prince Lawler was taken into custody, there have been rumors among the nobles. He was wronged because it was impossible for him to kill his loving grandmother. He is just a victim of the royal family's power struggle. Even Prince Lawler's omissions in the Queen Mother's Palace are said to be someone with ulterior motives who deliberately guides him to say it when he is sad and insane. Besides, it all implies that Jada is inseparable from this matter. I have already called someone to find out who threw this thing into my house. Don't worry about this, Your Excellency, the key now is, is the content in the letter true? "
The corner of Jada's mouth curled up: "Although I don't know who sent it, but if it's true, then..."
He and Sargent looked at each other and laughed.
Mint stayed by Gale II's side, keeping an eye on his physical condition. The newly appointed court physician is the place where the uncle came. Feeling a little wary and afraid to express her opinion, Mintel had to spend more time and force the doctor to express her opinion. Only then did Gal II's body gradually recover.
He was a little restless. He hadn't returned to the small courtyard for several days. I wonder if there is any new news from the colleagues in the security department? Judging from the current situation, Nuojia should not fight again, right? When will he find a chance to return home? But looking at Gale II's faintly sad and haggard look, he couldn't let go.
Gail II saw that he was holding a book in his hand and looked at himself frequently, and smiled reluctantly: "What's wrong? I'm fine, you are too nervous."
Minte twitched the corners of his mouth: "You'd better mourn. There are still many things to do. You have to take care of your health early before you can handle state affairs."
Gael II shook his head: "I'm getting old... Leave this country to the young people, Jada they are doing very well." God seems to be very discouraged.
Mintel frowned and tried to persuade him a few more words, but was interrupted by Jada who entered the door. Jada took out a letter. Handed it to Gal II and whispered something. The latter opened the letter and read it twice, frowned, and said, "Go, let Sargent assist you, but remember, you must grasp the key evidence, and don't give them the opportunity to return to the barracks to incite the soldiers. "
Jada answered loudly, and was about to turn to leave, but was stopped by Gal II and hesitated for a while. Then he said, "As for Mario...he is my brother after all. The Queen Mother just passed away, you..." After a while. With a sigh, "Forget it, you just have to remember that according to the current situation, if you act too hard, it will cause the people to rebound. You must maintain your own image and have confidence in yourself."
Jada was a little unwilling at first, but after hearing this, her expression suddenly brightened: "I understand, thank you uncle for your reminder." After saying this, she nodded to Mint with a smile, and turned away.
Minter approached Gal II and saw him staring at the letter in a daze. He picked up the envelope and read it. It only had the words "For Duke Jada" written on it. He glanced at the letter and vaguely saw it It was written that Prince Mario had made an appointment with whom and who to hold a secret meeting, and attempted to use the army to stage a coup d'etat. He also listed a few names. Minte could see it clearly. The bottom one was the newly appointed Qiangong. The captain of the guard, there is another officer in charge of guarding the gate of the palace. He is also a new recruit. He replaces Sargent's dead deputy. Every time he enters and leaves the palace gate, the other party greets him.
Are these people the people behind Prince Mario's ambush? !
Looking further up, there are still several officers on the list, and the titles and the numbers of the troops they belong to are also indicated on the back. Many of them belong to the king, the great lord and the royal family, although these people are only deputies. , but if they want to take over control of the army, even if they can't persuade the soldiers to attack the king's city, they can at least prevent them from becoming the king's help.
Mint was secretly shocked that Prince Mario's power had infiltrated to this point, and Jada was so lucky to get this information before it happened!
Gael II sighed and put away the letter. Mintel quickly retracted his head, pretended not to be interested, and handed the envelope over. Seeing his sullen face, he knew that he must be doing this for Prince Mario. The younger brother refused to give up, but he felt sad that he had to deal with him, so he cautiously said: "Are you tired? Do you want to rest?"
Gael II shook his head, walked to the desk on crutches, locked the letter in the drawer: "I'll read the book for a while, you go down."
Mintel helped him to sit down on a chaise longue by the fireplace, then backed out, walking alone in the hallway, rubbing his chin, wondering who the **** sent that letter?
He suddenly stopped, put his fingers under his nose and sniffed it a few times, making sure it wasn't his hallucination just now! The aroma on your fingers... is it the envelope? It seems to have smelled somewhere...
He has been exposed to all kinds of spices since he was a child, and learned potions. His nose is more sensitive than ordinary people. As soon as he smelled this fragrance, he immediately searched in his mind, where did he smell this smell, and soon , a purple-red figure appeared in his heart.
In the urban area of Normon Kassi, there is a Weisha settlement called Spiling Street. The residents here are all expatriates. They are the Noga people of Weishan origin who have obtained a settlement permit, and many of them have proliferated in this country. Ten generations of families, most of them are engaged in manufacturing, they are famous for producing exquisite high-end swords, and occasionally they make utensils and jewelry, but the most famous is steel weapons. The noble children in Normonka City like to come here to buy a few steel daggers decorated with gold, silver and precious stones, and wear them around their waists to show their prestige.
At No. 72 in this block, there lives a husband and wife who moved to Nuojia less than ten years ago. The man is in the jewelry business. He is quite famous on this street. Citizens of Weishan descent will be attracted to Nuojia. People looked sideways, but he was not discriminated against, so he usually lived quite comfortably.
However, at the moment, he is standing in the guest room of his own house tremblingly, reporting the news he has inquired to the woman in front of him, and occasionally glances at his wife who is standing by the side, who bows his head a little guiltily .
"Very well, you can go back to the store. Once Unard comes back, tell him to come back to see me immediately." It was Namu who Minte was looking for. She is now wearing a long milky white linen gauze dress that Nuojia young women like to wear in summer. The turban completely covers her black hair, her face is exposed, and she has no makeup at all, and she looks a bit upright and elegant. If you are not very familiar, you will not be able to recognize that this is the beauty dancing in the stars that night. The man nodded and bowed in response, before turning to leave, he glanced at his wife again: "Old, wife, I'm going out, the child...let's pick it up early, or you can go with him, he's alone in someone else's house. "..." His wife bit her lip and didn't speak, but her eyes were red.
Nam gave her a light look: "Go, I don't need you here." The woman hurriedly thanked her, glanced at her husband, hesitated for a moment, but still held his hand and dragged him out. His face was ecstatic, and he looked back at Namu with gratitude.
Nam finds it a little boring. Even a loyal subordinate will take her husband and children more seriously after marrying and having children, right? I am afraid that this secret agent can no longer be used.
She touched the belt around her waist, the stiff touch made her feel a lot more at ease~IndoMTL.com~ The important information has been sent back to China before, and now, as long as she sends what she has on hand, she The mission of this country is accomplished. This secret stronghold will be abandoned in the future, and let the couple live their lives by themselves.
She looked up at the sky outside the window. It was getting late, and her companion Unard went out early in the morning to deliver a letter to Sargent, the chief of the palace guard. Had he been found detained?
If that's the case, bad!
Thinking of this, Namu stood up a little uneasy, pacing back and forth in the room, suddenly someone knocked in the door, it turned out to be the man of the house, she frowned when she saw his panicked face: "What happened? What's wrong?"
"Scholars and soldiers are searching the streets. I heard that they will search from house to house. You..." The man was already a little confused, but he just told him rationally that this woman could not be allowed to stay here.
Nam also knew this, so she had to retreat first. After telling the man to pass a message to her companions, she hurriedly packed up the most important things, covered her head with a big scarf, and slipped into the alley through the back door of the house. Run to the neighborhood block.
As soon as she ran through two intersections, out of the corner of her eyes, she saw the shadows of several soldiers dangling on the ground not far away. She hurriedly stopped and returned to the original alley, only to find that there were soldiers passing by the entrance just now. , she had to hide behind a big tree by the roadside, using the trunk to cover her figure. Seeing that the shadows of the soldiers in front were getting closer, but the soldiers behind showed no signs of leaving, she looked up and looked around, looking for a place to hide. Suddenly, a pair of hands stretched out from behind, covered her mouth, and dragged her into a dark corner.
(Guess who this person is?)
