Chapter 329: Did Something Happen?

“This person is an insult to the royal bloodline!”
The soldier’s face flushed red with anger as he glared at the tent.
Prince Lei Ting was in the tent. He was grievously poisoned by Young Master Tan.
When they brought him back, he was almost on his deathbed. He was treated for a few days, and his measly life was finally saved. However, when he woke up, he could not regain his freedom.
He was furious. He was a royal prince! How could Qian Jiyun, a prince of the second rank, restrict his personal freedom?
!!
He wanted to see Qian Jiyun and instructed the soldiers serving him to summon Qian Jiyun. However, the soldiers acted as if they could not hear him and did not take his words seriously.
He could not use his authority to suppress Qian Jiyun if he could not see him. The soldiers loyal to Qian Jiyun still did not treat him as the high and mighty Prince Lei Ting.
Hence, he kept scolding Qian Jiyun, wondering if he could make him so angry that he would charge in.
However, he was wrong. His throat was hoa.r.s.e from all the cursing, but he still did not see Qian Jiyun!
“Qian Jiyun, wait and see!”
“Sure, we’ll wait.”
An Jiuyue had just left her tent when she heard the soldiers gossiping about Prince Lei Ting’s shrewish behavior.
With so much evidence against him, Prince Lei Ting would be executed or severely punished after the evidence was presented. Yet, Prince Lei Ting still believed Qian Jiyun was only exacting personal revenge on him by restricting his freedom.
How could someone so ridiculous be conferred with the t.i.tle of a prince?
She looked around and was about to ask someone where Qian Jiyun was when she heard his voice.
“You’re finally willing to come out?”
“Why did you come here?”
The epidemic outbreak in the military camp had not yet been suppressed.
Qian Jiyun was quite busy. Of course, she was also busy watching over the bamboo rats to prevent them from dying.
The marrow apricot trees in the Microcosm also seemed like they were about to bloom. She expected to be able to develop the antidote soon.
Can’t I come over for no reason?
Qian Jiyun thought to himself but did not tell her.
“There’s news from the Jade Kite Garden Villa. I’ve already arranged for the messenger to rest. Take a look at this.”
He reached out and handed a letter to An Jiuyue.
An Jiuyue raised her eyebrows and opened the letter. Soon, she frowned.
“What’s wrong? Is there something tricky to resolve?” Qian Jiyun asked when he saw her frown.
Elder Huang would not have sent a letter if it was an ordinary matter.
“Elder Huang said that the people who made the poison were all killed. You’ve also…”
They had killed everyone at the two poison production sites except for Young Master Tan, whom Elder Huang had sent back to the Tan family to be punished.
“Did something happen?” Qian Jiyun knew something was amiss.
“Mhm.” An Jiuyue nodded.
Although her points did not decrease as much as before, 10 to 20 points were still deducted occasionally.
This was not a good sign. Someone was still using poison to harm people.
“There should be another site you haven’t discovered,” she said.
Qian Jiyun’s eyes darkened.
There’s more? That means we only found the places that are visible on the surface. There are even more people causing harm in the shadows!
“These people really don’t want to stop!”
