Chapter 230: Peace of Mind

Chapter 231 Peace of Mind

"Which one do you mean?"

“The kind that’s as red as if the sky is bleeding, I don’t think that kind looks good.” Tie Hongyan said.

Wu Xunsheng didn't expect her to say that, and didn't know how to answer for a moment, but he immediately thought of the blood on Dong Su's clothes that day. At this time, Wu Xunsheng's stomach growled with hunger, and he felt that he and Tie Hongyan seemed to have played longer today than before, and it was late but no one came to take them back to eat.

"Isn't it already past the time to go back and eat?" Wu Xunsheng asked.

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Qi ran towards them and told them to go back and eat.

When he saw Wang Qi, Tie Hongyan was stunned again - there was blood on Wang Qi's clothes!

Wu Xunsheng also saw the bloodstains on Wang Qi's clothes, and then looked at Tie Hongyan.

Tie Hongyan asked: "You...did you help others slaughter livestock just now?"

Wang Qi shook his head and said, "I hope the blood on my clothes didn't scare you."

"If it's not the blood of livestock, then it must be from human beings?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"Ah."

"What's going on?" Wu Xunsheng asked.

"This blood belongs to Dong Su, he is dead." Wang Qi replied. "Ah? He...how did he die?" Tie Hongyan asked.

"He was poisoned and just vomited a lot of blood and died. I don't know who the murderer is. The blood on my clothes was from when I carried him just now." Wang Qi said, "Let's not talk about this. The clan leader asked me to take you back to eat. Let's go back quickly. It's late today and you must be hungry." After that, he took Tie Hongyan and Wu Xunsheng to Ao Qian Palace.

As Wu Xunsheng walked, he wondered if what Wang Qi said was true. In fact, when Dong Su said that the blood on his clothes was from livestock, Wu Xunsheng noticed that Dong Su and Tie Hongyan had strange expressions, and he was a little suspicious of Dong Su's words at the time, but he did not show his suspicion, because his father had told him before he died: "Don't ask impulsively when you just start to doubt something. It depends on the environment. Sometimes one more word may cost you your life." Wu Xunsheng felt that the environment he was in did not allow him to ask about certain things, so he did not know the truth behind the blood on Dong Su's body later. This time, although he also doubted it, looking at Wang Qi's expression, he felt that what Wang Qi said did not seem to be false.

Chapter 50

In the cave where the fake "Iron Warehouse Secret Book" was buried.

"What? You have poisoned Dong Su to death?" Tie Jinjue said in surprise.

"Yes. This time I did it on my own without telling you in advance. Now I am here to report the results to you. I hope you can rest assured." Qin Ding said.

"Are you trying to reassure me? Do you know how dangerous it is for you to do this now? If the target is exposed at this time, the consequences will be disastrous! You are too impatient. Why are you so anxious to act?"

"A few days ago in Hongfeng Hall, I was by your side helping you handle official business. Every time you felt tired, you would lie down at your desk and take a nap. I heard you talk about killing Dong Su in your dream more than once, so I knew that you couldn't sleep well because of Dong Su. He killed Han Song with his own hands, and I think you must be uneasy because of this, so I took the initiative to poison him and then report to you, so that you can rest assured. Only when you calm down can you handle official business more steadily and do the best we can do." Qin Ding said sincerely.
