The Marquis Is Innocent
Chapter 77.1

Zong Ji and Xiao Qiao saluted each other. He said, “I am honored to be entrusted by you. Last night, I heard something, but I don’t know if it will help you. For fear of delaying your affairs, I have invited you to meet me early in the morning, and I hope I did not disturb you.”

Xiao Qiao: “You are very attentive. I am all ears.”

Zong Ji said, “The day before yesterday after you left, I went to the house of the country marquis. I hired a beggar to guard the front door, and I watched from the back door. Throughout the day, there was no movement. The door was always closed. Yesterday, when it was dark, I saw a man hurrying through the back door. He was acting suspiciously. When nobody was around, I went over the wall and heard some secret ……”

Zong Ji glanced at Xiao Qiao. Seeing her concentrating and focused, he was stunned.

Last night he climbed over the country house’s wall after the night, avoiding servants, and arrived at the main room. In the dark, he saw the man who entered through the back door inside this room. He climbed naked into bed and laughed with a naked woman.

The woman was less than 30 years old, with some beauty. Judging from her room, she should be the mistress of this room. They were performing sexual intercourse. The unceasing sound of lust, and one can hear they are having sex. Zong Ji was outside and waited quietly. When the matter in the room was over, he finally heard something interesting.

To the Lady of the Wei Manor, Zong Ji naturally won’t describe what he saw last night, only vaguely bringing a sentence forward. He said: “They were talking, and the woman said she had a rare poison in her hand called Bodhisattva. It was coming from India. Refined from snakes and incomparably poisonous. Colorless and odorless. Just a drop and the person who took the Chinese medicine will have difficulty swallowing. The whole body becomes paralyzed, but the mind is clear and can not speak. Three days later stopped breathing and died. The best thing is there is nothing unusual in appearance. It is like a sudden attack of illness caused by wind. The man was curious and asked to see it. The woman took out a small porcelain bottle, saying she had used out some days before, but because she couldn’t pass up such a strange medicine, she left this bit in her hand.”

Last night, after the pair of men and women flirting, the woman laughed and spat at most men in the world was heartless. She said if the man dared to disappoint her in the future, she would use this strange poison on him. The man naturally swore and wanted to look at the poison. At first, the woman just said it out of her mouth, but she seemed to regret it as soon as she said it and gave the drug to the man to watch.

Zong Ji looked at Xiao Qiao and continued: ” After looking at the poison, they went back to sleep. I waited for a few more moments, expecting there should be nothing else, and went out over the wall. I’m afraid you’ll have a lot on your mind, so I asked you to come to see me in the morning and tell you everything I saw last night.”

Xiao Qiao frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, raised her eyes, and asked, “Who is that man? Do you know?”

Zong Ji said, “The man is in his early twenties, tall with an eagle nose, wearing a purple robe ……” he carefully recalled, “Yes, I heard the woman had ‘Su Lang.’ The rest is unknown.” sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ NʘvᴇlFire.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

When Zong Ji described the man’s appearance, Xiao Qiao’s mind jumped to Su Xin’s appearance. She confirmed when she heard the name ‘Su Lang.’

The woman Zong Ji spoke of, who was nearly thirty years old, naturally could not be Su E Huang. It must be the widowed wife of the country marquis surnamed Li.

It seems the thread she strung out last night was not wrong. Su E Huang should indeed have left Yuyang. But her nephew Su Xin stayed behind and hooked up with the wife of the country marquis.

The snake venom from India. The ulterior relationship between Su Xin and the wife of the country marquis. A few days ago, Old Jiang came to the Li family. The wife of the country marquis said she had used out some…

The previous doubts suddenly became clear in a flash.

In the back, Su E Huang was stealthy manipulating Old Jiang, Mrs. Marquis of Xiang, and her nephew, Su Xin, in the front.

The only thing she doesn’t understand was why Old Jiang willing to be used by Su E Huang and become her puppet to extend her hand into the Wei Manor.

As far as Xiao Qiao knows, Old Jiang came to Mrs. Zhu’s side twenty years ago. At that time, Su E Huang was only four or five years old. It was impossible to plant a person so early. It seemed Mrs. Zhu had done a favor to Old Jiang in her early years.

But Xiao Qiao had no time to think about this in detail.

She already understood the relationship of everyone in this line, and her heart thumped.

Zong Ji finished his speech and looked at Xiao Qiao. When he saw she looked slightly changed, and her lips seemed to have lost some color, he hesitated and said, “Is there anything else you need from me? Just give me an order. I am willing to serve.”

The tone of his voice was sincere.

Xiao Qiao returned to her senses and smiled at him: “Thank you very much, Mr. Zong! These few days have been hard for you. What you said just now has helped me a lot! I can’t tell you how grateful I am. If I can repay you in the future, I will do so! I have nothing else. I had something to do at home. I will leave now.”

Xiao Qiao gave him a deep bow and turned to leave.

Zong Ji followed her and stopped outside the door. He watched her hurriedly depart back and slightly out of breath.
