I, who disguised myself as a woman, turned out to be a queen! ?

Chapter 1241 The Cat's Deduction

After last night, Shen Yuanhao was interrogated, and the questioning focused on how many people Rao Jiang had besides Qian Rui, and where they were.

Although Shen Yuanhao's tongue was cut out, he was still alive. At first, he had no intention of speaking about it, but for some reason, he came to a realization, or perhaps he had originally planned to speak out. In any case, he wrote down an answer.

do not know.

He only knew Qianrui, and that there were also people in the capital who had fled from Raojiang and rebelled against the Gu Xian Sect, and that their goal was to kill.

How many people were there, where were they, and who did they kill?
Shen Yuanhao didn't know, and Qianrui didn't say either.

However, Shen Yuanhao also wrote that he speculated that these Raojiang disciples had no intention of living. Besides receiving orders, their other purpose in coming to the capital was revenge.

Within the capital
In broad daylight, everyone saw the woman wearing a veil and holding a little girl in one hand as she jumped around on the rooftop.

Su Chang'an frowned deeply.

Those hidden Raojiang disciples must have known about Qianrui's death.

That's why they did this because cats can smell poison.

But what made Su Chang'an nervous was...
Why choose the Jiang family!

Because the Jiang family requested to marry into the Su family.

In this way, one can make contact with the Su family.

revenge
Now everyone in the world can see that even the King of Shu has lost his power. The battles in the northern deserts and the western regions have established the prestige of the Great Xia. The envoys from foreign countries who come to the Great Xia every now and then are examples of this.

There are also those foreign envoys who, despite refusing to meet with their wives, still come to pay their respects every day.

So what can they retaliate against?

It's nothing more than wanton revenge; they'll kill as many people as they can.

As for the Su family, regardless of their own status or their connections...
Bear the brunt!

Inside the Su residence, Su Qingning was squatting in her parents' courtyard, wanting to reach out and rub her bottom, but she didn't dare to touch it, mainly because it hurt.

"Although the beating was worth it, it hurt way too much. That old woman hasn't seen me in so long, she really doesn't treat me like her own daughter. It's a good thing I didn't have a second child with my dad, otherwise..."

Muttering to herself, Su Qingning endured the pain.

He wasn't speaking loudly; his mother, third aunt, and eldest aunt were inside.

Moreover, with the door open, it was easy to hear.

If they hear this, they'll beat me again.

That old woman was too ruthless!

Before she could finish speaking, Su Qingning looked up and saw a person wearing a veil and holding a dizzy girl in the other hand land in her yard.

Su Qingning reacted immediately, pointing her finger at him: "How dare you, you little cat?"

Su Qingning suddenly saw the cat who was being pulled "flying" by Su Chang'an, which made her a little dizzy.

Then, blinking at the person wearing the veil, she asked, "Big sister?"

Su Chang'an glanced at Su Qingning, then removed his veil. Noticing that his second aunt, third aunt, and mother were inside, he immediately walked towards the house. But seeing Su Qingning's crooked posture, he said, "Why aren't you lying down when your butt hurts? What are you doing outside? Be careful the marriage proposal people might come and see you like this."

The three women, Su Liu and Su Shi, inside the house also saw Su Chang'an: "Chang'an?"

Su Chang'an looked at the three of them, smiled slightly, and then bowed.

Madam Su Liu and her third aunt, Madam Su Zhang, were used to Su Chang'an bowing to them whenever they met.

But Second Aunt Su Qinshi hesitated and quickly returned the greeting.

When Su Liu saw that the cat looked dizzy, she quickly went over and pulled the cat to sit down.

Looking at the cat's appearance and then at Su Chang'an's hurried demeanor, she wondered if something had happened again.

Su Chang'an stepped forward and looked at Su Qinshi, saying, "I should have come to see you, Second Aunt, but I had too much to do and thought I would come after I finished."

Since parting ways with Su Chang'an in Yuzhou, Madam Su Qin had been very concerned about her eldest niece. Hearing this, she naturally knew that something had happened in the palace yesterday, since her husband still hadn't returned.

However, Su Chang'an got straight to the point, looking at Su Qinshi: "Second Aunt, are those things that the Jiang family from Jiaozhou sent before still here?"

Su Qinshi was taken aback. She thought that when she arrived yesterday, the Jiang family should have received the news and sent some everyday items.

At the time, Su Qinshi was unwilling to accept it, but when the old man saw it, he smiled and said to accept it, it was no problem.

So he accepted it.

But Su Qinshi did not open it.

Upon hearing this, he immediately said, "They're all worthless little things. I've put them all away, afraid they might cause trouble for the family."

Madam Su Qin, naturally perceptive, looked at Su Chang'an and quickly said, "I'll go get it."

As she spoke, Su Qinshi quickly turned around and walked briskly to the side of the house.

From the cabinet, Su Qinshi took out a box of moderate size. "Jiang Yanping knows I really like the seashell-based household items made by fishermen on the coast of Jiaozhou, so she brought these all the way from Jiaozhou. What's this?"

Su Chang'an quickly went over to take the box while looking at the cat.

The cat had just felt nauseous. Su Chang'an had used to tuck her under his arm and jump around like that before, but to be fair, she was okay and could handle it.

But today's pace was too fast. I can't take it!
However, upon seeing the box and realizing it was poisonous, the cat immediately overcame its dizziness and ran over.

Su Qinshi was pulled aside by Su Chang'an and stood far away from Su Liushi and the others, but she looked on with curiosity.

“Yes.” The cat opened the box, sniffed it, and looked at Su Chang’an: “It smells the same as that person’s.”

As the cat spoke, a small spider crawled out from her sleeve.

However, the cat frowned and looked at Su Chang'an, "But these things only have a smell, none of them are poisonous, it's like they were left here on purpose."

"Poison?" Su Liu was startled.

Su Qinshi and Su Zhangshi, who were standing to the side, also looked astonished.

Su Chang'an watched the cat carefully examining itself again.

Only taste, no poison?
Threat?

Su Chang'an's expression immediately turned serious.

The saying "It's not the thief you should fear, but the one who has his eye on you" certainly applies here.

But if it's about retaliation, this isn't the best time; it's just a threat.

Using poison here would have had unimaginable consequences, but it was useless.
Su Chang'an clenched his fist. Although he didn't really want to look for the seniors, if all else failed, he would have to go find the dozens of experts at the Limitless Realm.

Let them help find the person!
The cat looked at Su Chang'an: "It's not poisonous, it just has a bit of a smell on it."

As she said this, the cat picked up a beautifully crafted seashell rouge box, opened it, and sniffed it. "I'm not mistaken, it's definitely Gu poison. But this shouldn't be happening. If it's contaminated with poison, it means the poison was applied. Even with the antidote, it shouldn't smell like this. No matter what, it shouldn't smell like this."

At this point, the cat brought the seashell to its nose and sniffed it, then looked at Su Chang'an and said, "This doesn't count as putting poison on it, because it only has a smell. If someone deliberately put poison on it to scare people, even if it's diluted with other medicine, it's still poison. If the Second Madam touched it, she would definitely show signs of poisoning."

As they spoke, the cat stood up and walked to Su Qin's side, carefully examining her before saying, "She's not poisoned. Huh?"

The cat turned its head to look at the contents of the box, a look of great joy on its face: "The Gu worms crawled on these things!"

As she said this, the cat picked up the bowl from the table, which was obviously left behind by Su Liu after she drank her medicine.

After quickly rinsing the bowl with tea to remove the dregs, the cat took out a small medicine bottle from its small handbag and poured the clear liquid inside into the bowl.

Then he threw something with a toxic smell into the bowl, and looked at Su Chang'an excitedly: "It might be a gu worm that looks like a mosquito. There are a lot of them. Then they control the gu worms to land on these bowls or something, so they left a smell, but they are not poisonous."

After saying that, he stared at Su Chang'an and added, "I've always wanted Gu worms like these! Give them all to me once you catch this person!"

Su Chang'an rolled her eyes, but was too lazy to say anything about the cat, and instead looked at the bowl.

Su Liu and the others nearby also looked into the bowl.

Su Qingning blinked, wondering what she was thinking.

But nothing happened in the bowl.

The cat, who had been looking excited and expectant, looked at the food in the bowl and, puzzled, picked up another one and threw it into the bowl.

But nothing has changed.

The cat picked up the bowl thoughtfully.

"You're not allowed to drink!" Su Chang'an said immediately upon seeing the cat's actions.

The cat immediately turned around: "What do you take me for! This stuff isn't poisonous at all. Would I drink something that isn't poisonous?!"

Upon hearing this, the others in the room fell silent.

This doesn't sound right.

But the cat frowned: "But that's not right. If poisonous insects had left any trace here, there should be some mark left, even a black dot. How could it only leave a non-toxic smell? Unless it was just touched? But then..."

The cat paused, blinked its big eyes, and then couldn't help but smirk, "Hasn't another one appeared?"

At this point, the cat looked at Su Chang'an with great delight: "I want this person, I must have him!"

Su Chang'an looked at the cat with a puzzled expression: "Explain yourself."

The cat said, "It's not that she came into contact with them, but rather that this person passed by these things or something, and her scent picked up from them. The reason there's a lingering scent is because that person is a Gu, just like Lu Cai. This person has cultivated herself and the Gu together! She herself has Gu poison, so the things she touched have a scent. It's not that she deliberately hid the scent from me."

At this point, Cat said, "Lu Cai should be able to find that person; his snake is incredibly powerful! He should be able to smell it."

Upon hearing this, Su Chang'an immediately said, "Come out."

Immediately, a figure appeared.

They were secret sentries left behind at the Su residence.

Su Chang'an immediately said, "Summon Lu Cai to the Thirteen Valiant Guards' residence."

Cat stood up and looked at Su Chang'an: "Even if I have to kill him after I catch him, I still want him!"

Su Chang'an looked at the cat: "I told you before, you can't touch a human body."

The cat looked stunned, then put on a righteous expression: "What are you talking about! I have a conscience too, how could I possibly experiment on a corpse! I just want that Gu!"

……

PS: I fell asleep last night.
