Let An Lingge and Mu Junhan stay in the same room alone?
She felt that it was dangerous even if she wanted to. This was the first time she violated the orders of her young mistress, so she stood still. "But, young miss, he …"
"It's fine, you can leave." An Lingge did not have time to explain to her what had happened between the two of them, she could only let her down with a stern face.
Seeing that she seemed to be angry, Ming Xin pursed her lips and unwillingly withdrew.
Mu Junhan leisurely ate a mouthful of food, and after a while, he said, "Your servant girl seems to hate me."
An Lingge rolled her eyes at him, "After all, you went before the emperor to annul your engagement with me. It would be strange if she didn't hate you."
But this was something the two of them had discussed!
Mu Junhan's face revealed a look of being wronged, on the face of the evil being, he looked a little pitiful.
An Lingge burst out laughing as her eyes curved into a pair of Yue Ya, "If others were to know that the dignified Hereditary Prince is acting so cute like a child, I'm afraid they would be so shocked that their jaws would not even be able to pick it up."
Mu Junhan kept the wronged expression on his face and started to talk about proper matters, "You said that there will be a plague in the capital, how confident are you?"
Back then, An Lingge had said that there would be a plague in the capital at the height of summer. However, it was already the beginning of summer. He had sent people to patrol the capital and did not find any signs of plague.
"Ten." An Lingge put down the chopsticks in her hand, her expression solemn, "Although I cannot explain the reason, in less than three months, there will definitely be a plague in the capital."
If it was anyone else who heard An Lingge's words, they would only think that her mind was muddled, or that she was speaking nonsense, or that she had evil intentions.
But Mu Junhan knew that An Lingge would never do something that he was not confident of, nor would he act in such a manner.
He nodded, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
"The Emperor has already ordered me to set off for the Mo Bei in three days." "If you need help at that time, ask your Dark Guard to send a message to me. They know how to contact me."
She thought that Mu Junhan would at least stay in the capital for half a month, why would he need to go through the Mo Bei so soon?
The Emperor was too impatient.
"Then be careful."
Thousands of words, at this moment, converged into one sentence. An Lingge's eyes were filled with worry, which warmed the bottom of her heart.
He was about to speak when he caught a glimpse of a few figures flying past the teahouse across the way.
When did all these people appear in the capital?
Suspicion flashed past his heart, he hurriedly spoke a few words to An Lingge, then jumped out of the window with his slender figure, chasing after the few figures.
The few people in front had pretty good martial skills, but their movements were a bit sneaky. They seemed to have avoided the crowd and didn't walk on the streets. They just chose the eaves of the houses and those remote alleys to pass through.
They crossed most of Chang'an Street before they entered a village and found their way to a well in the village.
Mu Junhan followed behind them without a change in expression, his feet lightly tapped on the roof of the building, not letting out a single sound.
He lay prostrate on the eaves of the house, lowering his body. His dark phoenix eyes were fixed on the group of people in front of him.
They carefully looked around to make sure there was no one around, then they quickly took out a bag of things and opened it quickly, pouring all the contents into the well. After doing all these things, they stealthily turned around and headed in another direction.
The doubt in Mu Junhan's eyes grew deeper. As he looked around, he just happened to see one of the men turn his head, and the deep three-dimensional features of his face did not seem to belong to someone from the Great Zhou Empire.
There were actually people who resembled Qingyue Kingdom in his appearance.
Mu Junhan's pupils constricted and the corner of his mouth curled up subconsciously. He followed them quietly to the next village and only after seeing them do the same thing over and over again, did he quietly return to the restaurant.
"How is it?"
An Lingge poured him a cup of tea and passed it to him.
Mu Junhan took a shallow sip, the playful expression fading into a serious one.
"Those people seem to be from Qingyue Kingdom." He told An Lingge everything that he saw, "I saw them sneaking into the village near the capital to pour a bag of stuff into the well. After doing all of this, they ran to the next village and did the same thing."
That was to say, these people had a plan and they were going to drug the water well in the village near the capital!
An Lingge and Mu Junhan looked at each other and saw the heaviness in each other's eyes.
Right now, the Great Zhou was at war with the Qingyue Kingdom, so if these people were truly from Qingyue Kingdom, then there must be a conspiracy behind these actions.
"Can we be sure of their identities?" An Lingge asked. If those people did not belong to Qingyue Kingdom, the matter would not be as serious as she had imagined.
Mu Junhan frowned slightly, "I can see the appearance of one of them. His facial features are profound and are different from the people in the Zhou Dynasty. After that I followed them to another village, and heard them speaking faintly, and the accent was not from anywhere in the Zhou Dynasty. "
Although Mu Junhan grew up in the capital, he still gathered business students from all over the capital. Even if he did not say that he knew every accent like the back of his hand, he could roughly guess what happened.
However, the accents of those people were not from any part of the Great Zhou, so they could only come from other countries.
An Lingge thought of the person with the weird accent that she met in the jewelry store and tried to imitate that person, casually saying a few words.
"That's the accent!"
Mu Junhan's face was filled with certainty, and then he became worried: "Little girl An, you also met these people?"
"I saw one like that in the jewelry store." An Lingge received confirmation, and the expression on his face became even more grave, "At that time, the person's expression was in a hurry, as if she was avoiding something, and directly crashed into Ming Xin's body. I heard his accent and looked at him, but he immediately covered his face. However, Brightheart said that there was something dark red on the man's shoes that looked like blood. "
He secretly drugged the water well, and his shoes were stained with a dark red substance that seemed to be blood stains. He was acting in a hurry, and when these things were linked together, he could not help but think about conspiracy.
Mu Junhan thought for a moment: "The security in the capital is always tight, these people are not from the Zhou Empire, but they snuck in, and must have some plan, I will send people to investigate this matter later."
An Lingge nodded, and after discussing the matter of hoarding medicinal ingredients with him, she took the initiative to look for Chu Yu.
