"Why don't you say anything? Do you think I'm being reckless?"
Zhan Ling'er asked, twisting the servant's ears.
She was originally an unruly young lady, and now that she was in a bad mood, her true character was naturally revealed.
The servant subconsciously blocked it with his hand, and then immediately lowered his head. Although it was just a small movement, Ye Jiuzhou still noticed it.
There was a clear flash of panic in the servant's eyes, and he immediately said: "The wine is here, it's just hot, drink it while it's hot."
"No rush."
Ye Jiuzhou said: "The weather is so cold, why don't you sit down and have a few drinks to warm your stomach."
After saying that, Ye Jiuzhou couldn't help but push him on the chair, poured a full glass of wine and handed it over.
"This...isn't this good? I'm just a lowly servant. How can I sit down?"
The servant looked very flustered and his hands were trembling.
Zhan Ling'er also realized something was wrong and said coldly: "What's wrong with the servant? Isn't the servant a human being? If I hadn't been lucky, my fate would be similar to yours, so drink quickly."
"But...but..."
The servant's eyes were moving around, as if he was trying to find some excuse, but he couldn't even form a complete sentence.
"If you don't drink, you won't give me face or the chief elder's face. You know the consequences."
Zhan Linger continued to threaten.
But the servant was holding the wine, but he didn't dare to drink it. The reason was very simple. The wine was poisonous and it was his own hand.
And this servant is none other than Wang Yu.
He took a hint from Elder Qu and wanted to kill Ye Jiuzhou, so that no one would compete with him for the position.
But he had also heard about Ye Jiuzhou's deeds and thought he was no match. To be on the safe side, he knocked out the servant who brought the wine and brought poisoned wine.
He planned very carefully, but when he was entangled with Zhan Ling'er, he accidentally revealed his martial arts background. Ye Jiuzhou could tell at a glance that such skills could not be as simple as a servant, so he forced him to drink.
Now, he is riding a tiger, and he can't even think about not drinking.
However, this poisonous wine seals the throat with blood, and there is no cure. Once you drink it, it will really be over.
Just as he was thinking hard about countermeasures, Ye Jiuzhou had already brought the wine glass to his lips, "If you don't drink, I will drink it."
After hearing this, Wang Yu was also stunned, and then asked in a dark voice: "You have already seen it?"
"It's hard not to see it. Your acting skills are too bad."
Ye Jiuzhou snorted and took off his hat.
"Hey, it's you!"
Zhan Ling'er was stunned and said: "Elder brother, why is it you!"
Whether in terms of age or seniority, Wang Yu is not high, but because he is the son of the clan leader, everyone is accustomed to calling him senior brother.
"Yes, it's me!"
Wang Yu snorted coldly and said: "It's a pity that I couldn't poison you, that's all. You can hand me over to the execution hall."
His plan was seen through, and he could only admit defeat, but it was not a big deal. At most, he would be punished to shut up and think about his mistakes. Anyway, he was the son of the sect master, so he would definitely be able to make big things and trivial things into small things.
"Poison...poison me?"
Zhan Ling'er's voice became trembling.
Although she was unruly and willful, she had never offended anyone. The reason why Gong Yue, Zhao Lei and others were angry with her was mostly because of Ye Jiuzhou. Therefore, she could not believe that someone actually poisoned her.
And that person is the son of the sect leader!
"That's right, I'm going to poison you to death. Who made you plot evil and want to compete with me for the position of sect leader!"
Wang Yu said: "Now that we have spoken out, there is no need to hide it. Zhan Ling'er, don't think that because you are my father's illegitimate daughter, you are qualified to fight with me. Let me tell you, the entire Qingming Sect will listen."
Mine, even if you send me to the execution hall, I will come out soon, and by then, even my father will not be able to protect you!"
Originally, with his status, countless people were willing to sacrifice their lives for him with just a word. However, this matter was really not very honorable, so he decided to take risks with his own life, but he did not expect to be exposed.
At this time, he was so regretful that his intestines were green. If he had known this, he should not have come!
"Torture Hall?"
Ye Jiuzhou smiled and said: "Does the Qingming Sect still have such a hall? I have never heard of it. Forget it, it's better not to trouble them and let me deal with you personally."
"Wha...what?"
Wang Yu's voice trembled with fear, "You... you want to set up a private court? This is a serious matter that violates the rules of our ancestors!"
"Who cares about the rules? As the chief elder, don't I even have this power?"
Ye Jiuzhou said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Wang Yu immediately withered.
Because the chief elder does have this power, and the matter itself is his own fault.
The son of the dignified sect leader actually resorted to such despicable means as poisoning, and was dirty by everyone. Once this matter was exposed, even his father would not be able to protect himself.
Moreover, for the sake of reputation, my father might even commit suicide.
When he thought of this, he broke into a cold sweat.
Seeing his expression, Ye Jiuzhou couldn't help but laugh. This was the effect he wanted.
He needs to make the other party feel scared first, so that he can ask the person behind it.
After all, a person with such a special status would definitely not take risks if no one instructs him.
"You dare to kill me?"
Wang Yu stared at Ye Jiuzhou, with a hint of stubbornness on his face.
"Why don't you dare?"
Ye Jiuzhou asked back: "You want me to die, why should I keep you in this world?"
His tone was very calm, as if he was telling an insignificant matter, but Wang Yu was trembling with fright.
Because he could tell that Ye Jiuzhou was not trying to scare him.
"I...actually I don't want you to die either."
Wang Yu lowered his head and whispered: "I just want to scare you."
"Scare me? So this poisonous wine won't kill anyone? How about you take a sip and I'll pretend it never happened?"
Ye Jiuzhou smiled.
Zhan Ling'er on the side also added fuel to the fire, "That's right, just take a sip and forget about it. No one other than the three of us will know about it."
Wang Yu was speechless and seemed to have accepted his fate.
"But..."
Zhan Ling'er suddenly changed the subject and said: "If you are willing to recruit honestly who is behind this, maybe we will give you a lighter sentence."
As soon as he heard this, Ye Jiuzhou felt bad.
Sure enough, Wang Yu suddenly laughed loudly and said: "So you are scaring me! Haha, I am the son of the sect master. If you kill me, you will never be able to gain a foothold in Qingming Sect. If you don't believe it, just give it a try."
"Do you think I really don't dare to kill you?"
Zhan Ling'er couldn't hold it in any longer, so she unsheathed her sword and put it on Wang Yu's neck.
