"All of you, stop arguing!" Gu Heng suddenly stood up and interrupted the noise in the room, "Which one of you came over to take a look at Eldest Miss? Do you know how she disappeared?

Xie Jingqi almost burst into tears. She really did not dare to look at Eldest Miss again, she could still vividly remember the way her big brother died, and how could she not wake up even if she carried him in her arms. Her child loved to sleep so much, how could she not wake him up?

Just as Lady Xu was about to go forward and pick up Eldest Miss, she was stopped by Xie Jingxi, "I don't care how much you misunderstand me, but Eldest Miss can't move now.

Lady Xu pointed at Xie Jingxi's nose and cursed: "What reason do you have to stop me, that's my granddaughter.

"Big Sis, can I trouble you to help mother down?"

Xie Jingxi endured the anger in her heart, and asked Xie Jingyi to help him down, causing Lady Xu to become angry, "You're a big shot now, aren't you?

"Mother, let's not talk about that for now. Leave the matters of the Eldest Miss to brother-in-law to investigate. I'll help you leave first." Xie Jingyi knew what was at stake, so she pulled Lady Xu down without any explanation.

Without the two women's noise, Xie Jingxi's rowdy mind finally quieted down. She squatted in front of Eldest Miss's bed and carefully looked at her small body.

Although he did not like Xie Jingqi, he had the heart and soul of two children. Right now, no matter how silly he was, he could tell that there was something strange about his two children's deaths, and when Xie Jingxi had warned him before, he did not ignore her reminder. However, this kind of thing was impossible to guard against, and no one knew who was so ruthless about it, to the point where even a child would not be let go.

"I'm sorry." Gu Heng painfully touched his face, and in a barely audible voice, said to Xie Jingxi: "You've suffered, I should have listened to you back then .."

"Shh .." Xie Jingxi interrupted him, "Now is not the time to talk about this, help me roll over on Eldest Miss's behalf."

Seeing her serious expression, Gu Heng also removed the pain in his heart, and stepped forward to help support Eldest Miss. Xie Jingxi lifted Eldest Miss's clothes, and checked the skin on his back, but there were no scars on his body at all. Those who did not know actually thought he was sleeping, Xie Jingxi could not wrap her head around it, and his eyes suddenly saw the jade bracelet in her hands.

"The Imperial Physician Pei is here!"

hurried over, and with just a glance, he said, "This is poison."

Xie Jingxi stepped aside for Pei Zixi, "Imperial Physician Pei might be able to see what kind of poison it is. "I've just checked and found no signs of poisoning."

It was definitely not just any normal poison. When she died in her previous life, she seemed to have been poisoned by this poison, although she did not see how she died, but all of these things were very similar.

Pei Zixi felt it was strange when he first saw them, there were traces to look for, usually when he first saw them, he could easily guess what they were, but other than Eldest Miss's small face that was extremely pale white and filled with an aura of death, he could not see anything else.

This was the first time Pei Zixi encountered such a thorny cause of death, he examined Eldest Miss's body for a long time before saying with a serious expression: "I think it might be Wuhen."

"Wuhen?"

Yes, it's Wuhen. Although I have never personally seen it before, but I have heard of such a powerful poison, colourless and tasteless, dead and unaware, I had thought at one time that it was only a poison from the rumors, but the death of the Eldest Miss conforms to its symptoms. Other than this, I do not know what other poison could cause people to become like this.

"Fourth Uncle, I'll have to trouble you to send people out to take a good look at all the exit doors to Marquis Mansion. From now on, no one is allowed to go out, and there are also grandmother and Sixth Miss.

Gu Wan knew that the situation was serious, without saying a word, she went out to make the arrangements. Xie Jingxi then looked at the bracelet in Eldest Miss's hands, and was about to grab it, but was stopped by Pei Zixi.

Pei Zixi held onto the specialized gloves, gently opened Eldest Miss's small hand, and took out the bracelet as he tried to pull it out. He first looked at the light for a while, then placed it under his nose and took a whiff, "There's the smell of malt candy."

Sugar? Xie Jingxi suddenly realized that she was just smearing a sweet candy on the bracelet, telling her why elder sister was holding onto the bracelet so tightly.

However, why was it that she had been extremely cautious before, and why did she have to do it so blatantly this time? Could it be that it was all to frame her?

"Imperial Physician Pei, if you have any news about this poison, please let me know.

Pei Zixi cupped his hands, "There's no need for you to say anything, I also want to research this poison. I didn't manage to help this time.

"Please ask Imperial Physician Pei to look at Mother, she just passed out."

"That's fine. Just leave it to me."

Clenching her fists tightly, Xie Jingxi said to Gu Heng in a deep voice: "Now is not the time to be sad. We still have to rely on you for the matters of the Eldest Miss.

Gu Heng pulled Xie Jingxi who was about to leave, "Don't hide anything from me, if there's anything I can help you with, I will definitely help. Don't get yourself into danger."

Xie Jingwan had locked up everyone who had come into contact with the bracelet, but it was also equivalent to looking for a needle in a haystack. There were simply too many people who had come into contact with these things, let alone the fact that the bracelet belonged to Ceng Shi, and everyone else in the house was a possibility.

She could imagine that if she tampered with the food and drinks, who would be able to guard against such things? If she was at the point where she had to be on guard against even a single needle and line, then she really wouldn't be able to live the rest of her life.

He did not stop Xie Jingxi from doing this kind of strict defense, and even personally sent people to help her. This was because now was not the time for her to cover her face, and accidents happened one after another in the palace.

From the incident to now, Xie Jingxi had relied on her instincts to take care of everything. She sent back Lady Xu, Grandma Dagu and the others, and instructed them to clean up the leftover food, his brain did not have a moment of leisure, and almost had its string snapped. Not long later, the chaos in her residence was completely suppressed, and everyone knew that the situation was serious.

Xie Jingxi did not eat anything at noon, and in the blink of an eye, half of the afternoon had already passed, and she was already feeling dizzy, but Eldest Miss's life was gone, and she could not care about anything else, after all, she still had a series of things to take care of.

"Grand Mistress!" "Grand Mistress, Marquis wants me to inform you that a group of soldiers has suddenly surrounded Marquis Mansion. I do not know what exactly happened, but it is very likely that they are related to Eldest Young Master. You have a rough idea in your heart, will go and ask around, please stabilize the mansion first."

Xie Jingxi was confused, the taut string of the bowstring suddenly snapped, and a feeling of vertigo filled her entire body. She almost couldn't stand up, "Miss, don't panic, it might not be Young Master's fault, let's see what's going on first."

Xie Jingxi's fingernails fiercely dug into the meat, allowing her to regain some clarity in her mind. Now was not the time to panic, she took a deep breath, "Is Zhao Zhang here?"

Zhao Zhang did not come in, but Fang Dai came over and said, "Madam, don't worry, just now when the soldiers were not around us, Zhao Zhang took the chance to run out. As long as he went out, he would be able to get news of Eldest Young Master.

Xie Jingxi finally understood why Gu Yun had sent Fang Dai to her side. This person! He had already known that such a day would come. This was too hateful. If anything happened to him, she would definitely not forgive him!

"Good Fang Dai, follow me to the front yard to take a look. Ming Yu, stay in the house, don't go out no matter what happens."

Xie Jingxi brought Fang Dai to the front yard, while Lady Zeng laid on her bed half-dead from Eldest Miss's attacks, Gu Heng stayed in his courtyard to guard Eldest Miss and Xie Jingqi, leaving Marquis as the only one in the outer court.

"Father, do you know what is it? Everything is fine, why are there officers and soldiers surrounding our Marquis Mansion? "

"It's because something's happened to the Ministry of War, and people outside are keeping their mouths shut. I only heard that it was a Ministry of War explosion, and it seems that it was Gu Yun who committed something, which is why he is taking care of us, the Marquis Mansion."

Xie Jingxi's heart sank, if Ministry of War were to explode, could it be that there was a problem with the gunpowder Yang Shouli developed, but how could it explode like that?

Marquis took note of her expression, "What has Gu Yun been busy with recently? It looks like, what do you know?"

Xie Jingxi knew that she could not hide any of her actions from Marquis, but she did not know if she should speak of Yang Shouli's matter, and could only consider it: "Father, husband only said that his Ministry of War is lacking people, and is rather busy. It seems like General Sheng is returning to the capital, where Ministry of War is busy preparing for the upcoming matters."

Marquis looked at her and only said one sentence, "Gu Yun is lucky, nothing will happen to him."
