The official in Zhao State's official guesthouse stared at Su Qin with a humble attitude and said, "We have prepared some wine and food for the noble envoy of Yan State. I wonder if it suits your appetite. Please use it slowly."

After saying that, the man said goodbye slowly. Su Qin checked in the room and found nothing unusual. He sat down with confidence.

When he saw that the official store prepared the famous "Handan mash" for them, he picked it up and smelled the fragrance. When he was about to drink it, he felt a head protruding from the window.

Su Qin looked carefully again and found that there was nothing there at all, but Su Qin was still worried. He couldn't help but doubt the wine and food.

Su Qin quietly took his bag over, pulled out a thin embroidered scarf and put it in the sleeve of the robe. He then raised his glass again, this time he deliberately used the robe sleeve to block the wine in front of him and poured the wine in the glass on the underwear.

Then, he smacked his lips and said loudly: "Good wine is truly the famous Handan mash, it is really delicious."

Not long after, he raised another glass of wine and pretended to drink it all, but in fact he fell on his underwear.

After drinking two cups in a row, Su Qin pretended to have a severe stomachache, then stretched out his legs and kicked his feet, and fell on the seat. He waited motionlessly for more than a moment, and there was a knock on the door. Su Qin ignored it and continued to lie there.

The person outside the door knocked several times and found that there was no response in the room, so he pushed the door open and came in. Su Qin saw that it was a strong man in black with a face covered, holding a sharp dagger in his hand, and the man rushed towards Su Qin.

Su Qin quickly dodged. Seeing that Su Qin was alive, the man in black avoided his own attack. After being stunned for a moment, he then stabbed Su Qin with another sword.

Su Qin had reached the bottom corner of the bed at this time, and there was no room for him to hide. His Qingshuang Sword could not be pulled out in the cramped space. At this time, in desperation, he slid the crossbow at the cuff into his hand, pulled the mechanism, and made a crossbow at the man in black's head.

The man in black did not expect that Su Qin had such a clever dark crossbow besides the sword on his body. In a panic, he turned his head outward and barely avoided the short crossbow on his face, but his right ear was hit by the short crossbow, which cut off a large piece.

Su Qin took advantage of the time when the man in black paused for a moment and stood up. He pulled out the Qingshuang sword and stabbed the man in black directly in the chest.

The man in black used the dagger in his hand to block the Qingshuang sword. Su Qin originally thought that the dagger would break into two pieces, but the dagger just bounced away and was still intact. Su Qin had already understood at this time that the man in black was the short sword of Mrs. Xu, the national treasure of Zhao State. This sword was very tough and sharp, and was a famous close-fitting fighting weapon among the weapons at that time.

The man in black was also jumped by Su Qin's Qingshuang Sword. He probably didn't expect the tenacity and power of the Qingshuang Sword. Seeing that he could not win for a short time, he was bleeding from his right ear wound and stopped fighting. He turned around and ran away, his figure was quick and flexible.

Su Qin couldn't catch up, so he pulled the crossbow again. The man got another crossbow on his left arm, but his speed of running away did not decrease, and there was no trace in an instant.

Ning Jun next door heard the sound of fighting and came out to observe with his sword. He also saw the shadow of the man in black. The man jumped onto the wall of the official house and disappeared quickly into the night.

Ning Jun looked at Su Qin who was chasing out of the room again, and found that everything was normal, so he felt relieved. Su Qin invited Ning Jun to his room and told Ning Jun about what had just happened. Ning Jun also checked the handan mash, and felt that something must be strange.

The two of them found a silver hairpin used by a man to fix the crown and looked into the wine. The part of the silver hairpin that was immersed in the wine slowly turned black.

This time they could clearly determine that the wine was poisonous. Fortunately, Su Qin was alert. He felt that Xuan Yang Jun was kind to staying guests from noon, not like his usual style. Later, he noticed a figure outside the window, so he didn't drink it. Otherwise, he would be poisoned, and coupled with the sneak attack by the masked man in black, he would not have any life.

Ning Jun was particularly angry and said, "The official who managed the official house must be a co-conspirator. Otherwise, why did he pretend to be nothing if he had such a loud noise? Why did the wine and food provided by the guest house be poisoned for no reason?"

Ning Jun said that, holding a sword in his hand and wanted to find the official to settle the score. Su Qin quickly stopped him.

Su Qin analyzed: "The reason why that official resident was so bold and dared to poison the wine and food of the envoy of Yan State was that someone would support him. The backer behind him might be Zhao Yun, the king of Xuanyang. We go to find him now, and he will ask him a question and we can't do anything to him. After all, we are on his territory."

Ning Jun said anxiously: "Then we can't be persecuted by them so unknown and worried all day long."

Su Qin thought for a while and said, "We can't afford to offend, can't we hide? We will move out tomorrow if we don't adapt to the conditions here. No matter how they try to keep them, they will not agree to force us to stay here."

Su Qin then said: "As for the matter tonight, we can't make a big deal, which has caused a lot of controversy, and has diverted the goal and direction, which is very unfavorable to our actions."

Ning Jun nodded in agreement after listening to Su Qin's analysis, but was still angry. While the two were discussing what tonight, there was another movement in the yard of the official house. After a while, someone came outside their door.

Su Qin and Ning Jun couldn't help but become nervous again. Su Qin pressed the hilt of the sword and shouted loudly: "Who is the person coming?"

The person outside the door reported: "It's me, Meng Ting, I heard that you have arrived in Handan City, so I came to visit at night. I wonder if it has disturbed you."

Su Qin and Ning Jun looked at each other, Su Qin nodded, indicating that Ning Jun should not be nervous, and the person who came to hear the sound was Meng Ting. Su Qin calmed down his nervousness for a while and said calmly: "It turns out that it was Miss Meng Ting's visit. It's welcome. How can I disturb you now? I'll open the door for you."

As Su Qin said, he went to open the door. He saw Meng Ting standing outside the door in a simple and tight dress.

Meng Ting was also surprised when she saw Su Qin and Ning Jun were together and said, "So Mr. Su, oh, no, it's Prime Minister Su. You have a guest here. It seems that I'll still disturb you."

Su Qin gave Meng Ting to the room, Ning Jun nodded at Meng Ting, saying that he had seen the gift. Meng Ting bent slightly and returned the gift.
