"When did he get poisoned?" asked an elder.

Qin Huaizhou shook his head. It was hard to say. We would have to do an autopsy to find out what kind of poison he had been poisoned.

Jiang Ning was thoughtful when he heard that the man in gray clothes had been poisoned.

At this time, an attendant suddenly rushed in front of everyone.

"To report to you elders, Mr. Huaizhou, someone came to report just now, and all the guards at the back door were knocked unconscious!"

"What!" an elder said angrily, "Today is the succession ceremony of the family head. How do you guard it?"

"Elder Lie, the guard responsible for guarding the back door was knocked unconscious. I'm afraid someone broke into the Qin family. Now is not the time for accountability. Finding the intruder first is the top priority." Qin Huaizhou comforted the angry elder.

"That's right. Moreover, there are many guests in the Qin family today, and most of them are people with extraordinary status. They cannot cause trouble in the Qin family." Elder Yuan said, "You can send out all the inner court guards to search the Qin family. Remember, secretly Go ahead and don’t disturb the guests.”

"Yes." Manager Qin accepted the order and immediately left the main hall.

Elder Yuan looked at Jiang Ning again. Before he spoke, Jiang Ning knew what he was going to say.

"Don't worry, Elder Yuan, I will keep it a secret. If the guests know that thieves broke into the Qin family, it will only cause panic and give those thieves more opportunities to strike." Jiang Ning said.

Elder Yuan nodded slightly, "Thank you, Mr. Jiang."

After all the guards were sent to search for the thief, the elders in the main hall also left one after another.

Qin Huaizhou asked someone to send the body of the man in gray to the Qin family's medical clinic. He wanted to check the body of the man in gray immediately.

Before leaving, Qin Huaizhou did not forget to send Jiang Ning to the banquet.

After coming out of the main hall, Jiang Ning followed a maid who led the way to the banquet to join other guests.

On the way, Jiang Ning carefully recalled the details just now, and felt that he had overlooked some key points.

At this time, he happened to bump into Ling Chuge walking towards him.

"Hey, where have you been? I looked around among the guests and didn't see you." Ling Chuge saw Jiang Ning's absentmindedness and waved his hand in front of Jiang Ning.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Ning came back to his senses and looked at Ling Chuge doubtfully.

"Ask me? I'm going to ask you what's wrong? What are you thinking about?" Ling Chuge asked.

Jiang Ning shook his head, "Nothing."

"It's best." Ling Chuge curled his lips.

"Why did you come here by yourself?" Jiang Ning asked casually.

Ling Chuge said what he meant, "Before going out today, Teacher Shen asked me to look at you. Qin Wenyu was just poisoned. Who knows if there are other assassins in the Qin family? If you are also poisoned, how can I help Teacher Shen?" Explain."

After saying that, Ling Chuge added, "I'm not worried about you, it's Teacher Shen. If anything happens to you, she will miss me when you go back."

Ling Chuge's words suddenly awakened Jiang Ning.

"Yes, that's it!" Jiang Ning suddenly shouted.

Ling Chuge, who was already feeling guilty, was shocked.

"What are you shouting about? What about this and that?"

"I know! Hurry, senior brother, go and notify Qin Huaizhou and ask him to take someone directly to Wenyu's residence." Jiang Ning quickly explained to Ling Chuge.

After saying that, without waiting for Ling Chuge's answer, he turned around and ran in the other direction.

"Looking for Qin Huaizhou?" Ling Chuge, who was left behind by Jiang Ning, stood there with confusion on his face.

On the other side, at Qin Wenyu's Wenxin Courtyard, King Yu and several maids sent Qin Wenyu back.

Standing at the door of Wenxinyuan, Qin Wenyu said in a weak voice, "Thank you, Brother Yi, for sending me back."

King Yu's voice and expression were full of gentleness, "Yu'er, your poison has just been cured. During this period, you must cultivate yourself well."

"Okay." Qin Wenyu nodded with a gentle smile.

Just as the maid helped Qin Wenyu turn around, several poisonous arrows suddenly flew into the air.

The poisonous arrows passed by Qin Wenyu and hit several maids beside him.

The maids didn't even have time to struggle, and they all fell down one by one.

But without the support of the maid, Qin Wenyu's body became weak and he was about to collapse.

King Yu immediately stepped forward to catch Qin Wenyu.

Qin Wenyu forced himself to speak weakly and asked, "Who is it? Dare you act so arrogantly in the Qin family!"

Prince Yu held Qin Wenyu in his hand and glanced around with horrified eyes.

"You must be the new head of the Qin family." A woman's voice suddenly sounded from behind.

King Yu turned his head and saw a girl in white standing behind him.

Qin Wenyu looked at the girl and said, "Who are you? What is your purpose?"

"My purpose is very simple. Come with me." The girl stretched out a hand towards Qin Wenyu with a charming smile on her face.

It seemed like it was just an ordinary friend's invitation to go out.

"What do you want to do?" Qin Wenyu looked at the girl warily and couldn't help but take a few steps back.

The girl still smiled, "Someone wants to see you, don't worry, I won't do anything to you."

When King Yu saw that the girl had a harmless face, the fear in his heart subsided a little.

"Girl, if you want to take Yu'er away, you are not taking this king seriously." King Yu showed his majesty and protected Qin Wenyu behind him.

"Who are you? I'm looking for Miss Qin, please give way." The girl said.

"This king is King Yu of Chuxia Kingdom." King Yu raised his chin and said confidently.

"Oh~ It turns out to be His Royal Highness King Yu." The girl nodded.

King Yu thought that the girl had been frightened by him, so he patted Qin Wenyu's hand reassuringly and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Qin Wenyu nodded slightly.

"Tell me, who asked you to come?" King Yu asked.

"Why should I tell you?" the girl chuckled.

King Yu's expression froze. No one had ever dared to speak to him in such a tone, let alone in front of Qin Wenyu.

Just when King Yu was about to show off his princely posture again, the girl suddenly moved.

The girl suddenly turned her fingers into claws and attacked King Yu.

King Yu didn't take the girl seriously at first, but when he saw the green light in the girl's palm, King Yu was frightened and backed away.

Because he retreated too quickly, he accidentally tripped over the body of the maid next to him, allowing King Yu to barely avoid the girl's poisonous claws.

The poisonous claw failed, and the green light from the palm hit the ground, immediately corroding a large pit.

Seeing this situation, King Yu was so frightened that his whole body could not stop shaking.

"Good luck." The girl moved her poisonous claws and looked at King Yu.

Being stared at by the girl, King Yu trembled even more.

At this moment, a sword was suddenly placed on the girl's neck.

Qin Wenyu supported his weak body, gripped the long sword tightly and said, "Tell me, who are you!"

The girl smiled coldly, "As expected of the new head of the Qin family, he is much braver than this useless prince."

"you!"

Without waiting for Qin Wenyu's reaction, the girl stretched out her hand and grabbed the sword. The green light in her palm melted Qin Wenyu's sword into two pieces.

Then the girl kicked Qin Wenyu in the stomach and knocked him to the ground.

"If you don't have the strength to resist at all, don't show off." The girl reminded her kindly.
