Qi Jue instantly understood that someone had deliberately stimulated the horse, causing it to suddenly lose control and go crazy.
He stretched out his hand to take the oiled paper and said, "Leave this matter to me, the King, for investigation. You just go and take care of the injury on your foot."
"No, time is running out. Anyone who has been exposed to this drug will have this scent lingering on their body for half an hour after burning the incense. Once this time is exceeded, checking again will be like looking for a needle in a haystack."
There was a dull pain in her right foot. Yan Mingzhu endured the discomfort and grabbed Qi Jue's arm.
"Your Highness, believe me, if you give me a cup of tea, I will definitely be able to find out the person behind the scenes. My fall cannot be in vain."
Yan Mingzhu has always been clear about grievances, and she was in such danger just now. Although she was not seriously injured, she still sprained her foot. How could she let the person who caused trouble behind her escape?
"Okay, I will accompany you, but I will only have a cup of tea. If you can't find the person who caused the trouble, you must treat your leg first."
While talking, Qi Jue held one of her arms, and at the same time, put his other hand around her shoulders, almost holding half of her in his arms, showing full protectiveness.
At this time, Princess Anyang had already run down anxiously from the stands.
"Bao'er, are you okay? Are you injured? You are all a bunch of trash. Even the princess can't protect you. I will definitely punish you!"
A group of guards hurriedly knelt down and apologized: "This subordinate deserves death!"
"Mom, I thought I was going to be finished and would never see you again, wuwuwu..."
Ning Zhenbao threw herself into the arms of Princess Anyang, crying like a pear blossom with rain.
Princess Anyang is such a precious daughter. She has been pampered in the palm of her hand since she was a child. If she accidentally bumps into her, she will feel distressed for a long time.
Now that I see my precious daughter feeling so sad, I feel even more heartbroken.
"Bao'er, be good, it's okay. Mother is here. No one can hurt you. Why are you still standing there? Take the princess down to rest quickly and call the doctor over to see if there are any external injuries on Bao'er's body.
!”
When the maid was about to help Ning Zhenbao go down, a clear and beautiful voice sounded: "Your Highness, the eldest princess, wait a moment."
Hearing the sound and looking over, he saw Yan Mingzhu walking in this direction with Qi Jue's personal support.
"Is it the third girl of the Yan family? Thank you so much just now. If you hadn't caught up with Bao'er at the critical moment and rescued her, otherwise the consequences would have been disastrous. The girl's life-saving grace to Bao'er,
I will keep this in mind. If you have any difficulties in the future, just come to me and I will do my best to repay you."
Princess Anyang is Emperor Zhao's only biological sister. She has a distinguished status. It is not easy to get a promise from her.
Today Yan Mingzhu risked her life to save her only daughter Ning Zhenbao. She will definitely become a guest of the eldest princess's mansion in the future. This is really enviable to others!
"Your Highness, the Princess, is serious. When Your Highness celebrated her birthday, the Princess helped her. Today, it was just a little help. However, the Princess cannot leave now. It really frightened the Princess's horse and almost harmed the Princess first.
The person has not been caught yet."
Hearing this, Princess Anyang couldn't help but darken her face, "What are you talking about, someone deliberately frightened the horse? Who is it that is so bold and dares to touch my daughter? I will not forgive you lightly!"
"This packet of oily paper was just seen falling from the horse. The herbs in this oily paper have the effect of stimulating the nerves, especially those livestock, which are very easily affected."
Princess Anyang looked at the oil paper in Yan Mingzhu's hand and was quite annoyed.
"Bring all the grooms to me immediately!"
Princess Anyang immediately thought that if she wanted to do anything to the horses, the grooms who were responsible for raising the horses would have the best opportunity to do so.
"Your Royal Highness, the groomsmen should not have done this."
Hearing this, Princess Anyang raised her eyebrows in confusion, "Why do you say that?"
"According to the properties of this medicine, it only takes half a stick of incense from the time when the medicine package emits fragrance to when the horse smells it and is affected. From the beginning of the competition to now, it is almost at this time.
In other words, someone secretly hid the medicine bag on the horse when it was on the field. In short, only the person who just entered the competition had this opportunity."
Pei Ninghe was so scared that she almost lost her soul when she saw the medicine bag actually appeared in Yan Mingzhu's hand.
How could the medicine bag be discovered by Yan Mingzhu, a bitch? She couldn't be suspicious of her, right?
No, it won't happen. So what if Yan Mingzhu found the medicine bag? She has no evidence to prove that she put it there!
Don't panic, don't panic, stay calm, and never let others see the clues!
After Qi Ruyue heard Yan Mingzhu's words, she sneered disdainfully.
"Yan Mingzhu, what do you mean by this? Are you saying that this princess wants to harm Ning Zhenbao? What a big joke. You don't want to show off in front of the emperor's aunt, so you just bite people here if you catch them?"
Maybe you secretly put this medicine bag in, and wanted to take this opportunity to deliberately save Ning Zhenbao in full view of the public. In this way, the imperial aunt will regard you as her savior and get the promise of the eldest princess's palace.
You, the daughter of a guilty minister, are about to turn over, what a good plan!"
As soon as Qi Ruyue said the words, the gloating smile on her face had not even finished when she was startled by a sharp shout.
"Qi Ruyue, who gave you the courage to talk nonsense here!"
Qi Jue's face sank, his cold and indifferent gaze fell on Qi Ruyue, and his compelling aura moved toward Qi Ruyue without concealment.
Qi Ruyue is a paper tiger who is strong on the outside but weak on the inside. She was originally afraid of Qi Jue.
This Nine Emperors Brother is a true murderer without batting an eyelid, and is much more terrifying than the Crown Prince and the others.
Qi Ruyue had seen with her own eyes that the throat of a person targeted by Qi Jue was sealed by his own sword!
When he took the sword back, there was no blood on the blade, but the opponent had already fallen to the ground with his eyes open and lifeless.
This was an incident that happened when Qi Ruyue was younger than Qi Ruyue. At that time, Qi Ruyue was frightened. She even had nightmares for several days, and when she saw Qi Jue later, she was instinctively scared.
"Jiu...Brother Jiuhuang, I...I'm not wrong, you...how can you speak for an outsider, I...I am your sister."
Qi Jue didn't even give her a look.
"I don't have a sister who is as stupid as a pig. Shut your mouth and say some random words, that horse will be your fate."
Qi Ruyue shrank her neck and was so frightened that she didn't dare to say another word. She just pulled Pei Duqin's clothes and hid behind him.
But Pei Duqin's eyes kept falling on Yan Mingzhu. He felt someone tugging at the corner of his clothes. He instinctively wanted to pull him back, but Qi Ruyue held on too tightly.
"Miss Yan, you just said that someone on the field took the opportunity to put a medicine bag on the horse. Is there any way to find this person?"
