Queen of flowers - chapter 155

Feng Liao was half-lying on the bed, and Yong Ruo sat on the edge of the bed and told him something.

With the excuse of going to pray at the tomb, Feng Liao went out of Beijing with his brigade.

But just less than a hundred miles from the capital he quietly left the brigade. He only took An Zimo, Su Mingjian and other confidants, first took the Emperor’s secret, and went to Mingzhou to take the 500 elites of the Mingzhou generals. And then turned to Tong province to investigate the case.

Wu Renxin, the chief soldier of Tong province, was the one who was suspected of killing good people, exploiting them, and selling the country to the enemy.

In the past ten years, the Chief Soldier had colluded with the Tulus in the north, not only smuggling food and ordnance to them, but also let the enemy attack the border, loot the population, slaughter the border people and reward the court with the people’s head.

Officials in Tong province were ones who either got along with Wu Renxin or were transferred or conspired.

In recent years, although there had been rumors of him killing good people in Beijing and Tong province, no one had obtained evidence.

The Emperor sent Feng Liao there just to find out what happened.

After Feng Liao and others arrived, they made some investigations in the dark, and obtained some witnesses and physical evidence.

Then they split their troops in two ways. An Zimo dressed as a ministry visitor, visited the abandoned villages that had been scourged and deserted.

Under the turmoil of Wu Renxin, his men pretended to be Tulu to assassinate An Zimo, trying to kill him and shut his mouth, but it was the trap set up by An Zimo.

Wu Renxin, who was posing as a Tulu, was captured. An Zimo deliberately let two people go back to send the letter.

Wu Renxin had no choice.

In a panic, he took the rest of his confidant out of the border, wanting to formally go to the enemy or go outside the border but Feng Liao was waiting outside the border with 500 elite soldiers.

Later, the Ming province General Bingfu was escorted as a confidante to Beijing, and Feng Liao rushed for the ancestral praying.

After the prayers were completed, Feng Liao once again broke away from the brigade and quickly returned to Beijing, but was secretly plotted on the way back to Beijing.

“Was Wang Ye plotted by the underdog of Wu Renxin, or someone else?” Yong Ruo asked.

“Who knows?” Feng Liao smiled, his face inexplicably sentimental, “But no matter who it is, one thing is certain, their good days are over!”

Yong Ruo sighed slightly, ‘This is also true!’

“Is Wang Ye regretful?” She said sadly, “Does Wang Ye regret taking the job given by the Emperor?”

Feng Liao reached out, squeezed her hand and smiled, “I don’t! As long as I can be with you for a long time, no matter what kind of things I encounter, I can face it!”

Yong Ruo smiled at him, but was sad in her heart.

She thought, ‘If I can stay with you, I will be happy.’

‘Unfortunately, I don’t know how many good days there are.’

But when did Feng Liao eat “unclean things”?

For this problem, Su Mingjian already had an idea, but there was no evidence.

Although eager to return to Beijing, Feng Liao had been very careful where to stay at night; there was no station, they had to stay at those old hotels.

From check-in to departure, guards kept eyes on the cook and even the water used to wash was seen by the guard.

Such precautions had been taken very tightly, but Feng Liao ended up sick.

Everyone else was fine.

Su Mingjian locked his suspected target on something that only Feng Liao had eaten and no one else had touched.

In the morning he started having diarrhea, he ate a bowl of chicken noodle soup alone.

That was made under watch of the guard, but the chicken soup stayed up all night.

Although the chicken soup was also under the watch of the night guard but working every day, everyone was exhausted. It was difficult to ensure that no guard took a nap when he was on the night shift. More seriously, maybe there were spies in guards.

However, there was no proof of the matter, and Su Mingjian could only unfold it slowly.

Feng Liao rehabilitated in Jinfeng Town for a few days, and then returned to Beijing when his body was basically recovered.

When leaving the Inn, Xu Taiyi smiled and said to Yong Ruo with a smile, “I don’t know if it’s a coincidence that there are always some amazing things happening around Madam.”

“Last time, Madam saved her mother with a recipe of Yiyuan porridge. This time, you saved Wang Ye with a bowl of sugar and salt water. I feel more that my knowledge of medicine is shallow and there is a lot to learn!”

Yong Ruo smiled, “Xu Taiyi is too humble. I just have good luck.”

Xu Taiyi laughed and boarded his carriage directly.

After returning to Beijing, Feng Liao bathed, changed clothes, and first went to the palace to convey everything to the Emperor.
