What he can think of, other family heads present can think of.
More probing eyes fell on Ling Xuewei.
Ling Xuewei completely ignored those glances, walked aside and began to analyze the toxin components.
"Medical officer, could the poison in my brother's body be a problem?" Yan Beixiong asked.
"It's okay for the time being. It just needs to be completely cleared. Otherwise, the toxins will backfire and the city lord will still be in danger." The medical officer said.
"Humph, I know that outsiders really can't be trusted!"
"Master Yan Er, don't forget that the Lord of the City's life was saved by Miss Ye." Jing Jie'an looked dissatisfied.
"She?" Yan Beixiong glanced at Ling Xuewei, and then snorted coldly, "I don't know if there is any hidden conspiracy in it. Maybe she was the one who poisoned me. Otherwise, how could she find a solution in such a short time?
"
"Master Yan Er, please be careful what you say!" Jing Jiian was really angry.
Murderous intent suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"Second brother, you are so rude. The poison was not caused by Miss Ye."
At this time, Yan Beisheng spoke.
With Wang Lei's help, Yan Beisheng stood up with difficulty.
"Brother! You were unconscious at the time and had no idea what happened..."
"The poison was not caused by Miss Ye." Yan Beisheng affirmed, "Miss Ye is an honored guest of our city lord. I believe in Miss Ye's character."
The whole place was in an uproar instantly.
The city lord’s distinguished guest?
Isn't this Ye girl a member of the ancient sect leader?
When did you become the city lord’s honored guest?
"Gu Sect Master, thank you for taking care of Miss Ye before. Now, I am seriously poisoned, and I have to trouble Miss Ye to go back to the City Lord's Mansion with me for treatment, so..."
Yan Beisheng looked at Gu Hao.
He originally didn't know how to protect Ling Xuewei's safety without revealing his identity, but now he just used the excuse of detoxifying him without making others feel awkward.
Although Ling Xuewei will still be probed and suspected by others, this is the best way for now.
Gu Hao's eyes flickered and he looked at Ling Xuewei.
"Your Majesty the City Lord, you are too polite. This... depends on Miss Ye's own wishes."
Ling Xuewei turned around and said, "That little girl would rather be respectful than obey your orders."
Disappointment flashed in Gu Hao's eyes.
Mrs. Shen could see it clearly from the side. She gritted her teeth bitterly and felt uneasy in her heart.
With the City Lord's Mansion as a backer, things will be different from before. If that woman settles the scores later...
"Brother, do you really want her to take care of your body? Let the doctor treat you? This way, my brother can feel more at ease..."
Yan Beixiong looked worried.
Yan Beisheng waved his hand, "Second brother, I have already decided on this matter."
Yan Beixiong narrowed his eyes, then smiled and said, "Then just follow what brother said."
"Second brother, should you also apologize to Miss Ye for your previous rudeness?"
Yan Beisheng said calmly.
He already knew what happened when he was unconscious.
Yan Beixiong's eyes flashed with evil thoughts, but he was a man who could bend and stretch, so he quickly said with a smile, "That's what the elder brother said."
While speaking, Yan Beixiong had already looked at Ling Xuewei.
"Miss Ye, I was too reckless and disrespectful before. I hope you, sir, have enough money and don't argue with me. I was also worried about my brother's safety, so I misunderstood you..."
"It doesn't matter."
After saying this, Ling Xuewei ignored him.
The rest of Yan Beixiong's words were stuck in his throat, neither rising nor falling, and his face looked a little ugly for a moment.
Smelly woman! If you dare to ruin his good deeds, they will have a bad relationship! Let's see.
"Well...that's it for tonight's banquet. The Lord of the City needs to rest."
Wang Lei came to smooth things over.
"But the person who poisoned me has not been found yet..."
"Yes, we must not let him go!"
"How dare you poison City Lord Yan..."
…
Yan Beixiong turned around and said, "Brother, leave this matter to me to investigate! I will definitely give you an explanation!"
"Wang Lei."
Unexpectedly, Yan Beisheng did not reply to him, but called Wang Lei to stop him.
"City Lord."
"I leave this matter to you. Make sure you check it out clearly for me and make sure there are no mistakes."
"Don't worry, City Lord, my subordinates will do their best to track down the real culprit."
"I'm tired too, so let's do this for now."
Wang Lei hurriedly handed over to the distinguished guests, "Everyone, today's dinner is over. The city lord needs to recover from his injuries. I apologize for any rudeness."
"The city lord made a serious statement."
Soon, the guests at the banquet dispersed.
I actually watched a good show tonight.
No matter who is behind the poisoning, it is not easy for this person to break through the tightly guarded banquet and attack the city lord.
It seems that it is not easy to be the city lord.
"Miss Ye gave me a big surprise."
Nanfeng Jue slowly walked over, "I didn't expect that the girl would actually meet Lord Yan City. A real person cannot be judged by his appearance."
His words were profound.
After saying that, he bowed his hands to everyone, turned around and left.
Gu Hao's expression was complicated, and he understood at this moment that the girl he rescued was not who she said she was, and her memory was completely lost.
That being the case, why should she hide it?
Ling Xuewei naturally noticed Gu Hao's expression, and she walked over and explained.
"I hope the ancient sect leader will forgive me. For some reasons, I have to hide this."
After all, it was true that Gu Hao saved her, and she didn't want to antagonize him.
"Now that Miss Ye has climbed a high branch, she naturally doesn't need to make excuses with us anymore."
Shen sneered.
"I will remember the life-saving grace of the ancient sect master."
Ling Xuewei's indifferent attitude made Ms. Shen choke.
Gu Hao's eyes flickered, "I saved you, not because I need the girl to repay me, but because I am willing to do so."
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Shen next to her suddenly looked extremely ugly.
Jing Jie'an frowned and caught the remark, "I admire the ancient sect master's benevolence and righteousness. Miss Ye... I am an old friend of the city lord. We were in trouble before, and it was thanks to the ancient sect master's rescue."
"That's right, the ancient sect master must not be humble. Why don't you and your wife come to my city lord's mansion as a guest? If you two don't mind, we will go to Jinghuang City together in a few days. What do you think?"
"That's great. We are honored to be invited by the city lord. Don't you think so, sir?"
Shen was the first to respond, and then pulled Gu Hao's arm. Only then did Gu Hao come back to his senses, "Then I'd rather be respectful than obey."
"You're welcome, the ancient sect master. Wang Lei, please take the two guests down. There is nothing wrong with entertaining them properly."
"Yes, you two, please come with me."
Gu Hao took a deep look here and then left with him.
"Let's go back too, second brother. You will be responsible for receiving distinguished guests these days."
"Second brother, please rest in peace and recover, and leave the rest to me."
"Um."
…
Ling Xuewei was arranged in an elegant courtyard. She returned to her room and breathed a sigh of relief.
Although what happened today was inevitably eye-catching, she had to step forward.
It was impossible for Ling Xuewei to watch Yan Beisheng die just to hide her identity.
Right now, the most important thing for her is to find a way to detoxify.
