tions, but hearing that these people were just passing through and looking for lodging, with patients in their car, she couldn't help but think of her own son who was also traveling far away. 。Thus, s...Li Lao Si didn't want to hide it, so he said: "Second brother, Mr. Wen, something really happened."

"This morning while I was training the soldiers, a soldier named Chen He suddenly died. But the training was as usual, there was no difference.

The Lord Hou investigated, but didn't find many clues. All he discovered was that Chen He carried a strange smoking pipe and jade box. He valued these two things very much in his daily life, and no one else was allowed to touch them. He would only secretly fiddle with them himself.

But recently, he suddenly changed his temperament drastically, demanding to leave the camp. He occasionally bumped into walls, rolled on the ground like a madman. As a result, during today's training with the team, he suddenly died.

Their family has arrived, claiming I harshly trained Chen He to death. The Marquis came forward to assert his authority, promising a thorough investigation.

The Chen family took Chen He's body away, but something didn't feel right to me. I went home to ask around, wondering if I had overlooked something.

"Second brother, Mr. Wen, you guys help me think about it!"

Mr. Wen just stopped, only frowning, but Li Lao Er's eyes were bright and frightening.

Everyone looked at him in surprise. He, however, remained calm and took out a jade box from his pocket, asking, "Fourth brother, are you familiar with this jade box"

Li Laosì took a closer look and jumped up directly.

"Oh my, Second Brother, how did you also get this jade box!"

Li Laoer glanced at the door, and Jia Yin immediately sent Shui Ling to guard it.

Li Laoer then said: "Didn't the Chang Princess previously instigate the Third Princess to snatch Fooniu'er's snack shop

“I always feel that the esteemed Grand Princess's mansion shouldn't stoop to this level for a mere shop. They know full well that there are the Marquis and the Emperor backing up Funiang, yet they keep coming back again and again to scheme.”

Unless the Long Princess's mansion is completely broke, a mere shell of its former wealth, I had people investigate further.

Everyone in the Chang Princess's mansion was normal, except for the Chang Princess's son who frequently went in and out of one place, spending money like water. That place was called Yaochi, heavily guarded and very mysterious.

Today, I had Zheng Sanjiang investigate. He said the people inside were spending money like water, smoking long pipes that looked like they were possessed, and using things taken from this jade box.

“He also went to a lot of trouble to get one, and brought it out for me. I was going to wait until tomorrow to show it to Doctor Zhang, but the fourth brother came back unexpectedly, what a coincidence.”

Mr. Wen narrowed his eyes.

He had spent the longest time navigating the court, and being from a noble family himself, he was more sensitive to schemes and power struggles than the Li family.

He waved his hand, signaling the Li brothers to calm down, then carefully asked several questions. Hearing the answers, his face turned even worse.

He sighed and said, "It seems Lao Si was right. There's someone behind this plotting against us."

Li Lao Er and Li Lao Si didn't react at first, but Jia Yin spoke up: "Second Uncle said that this thing comes from the Xiāo Jīn Kù (meaning 'Small Gold Cave'), mainly bought by young masters from wealthy families and young officials."

"And my father's soldiers are all from noble families!"

Li La'er and Li Si looked like they had been slapped, their muddled minds suddenly clearing, but buzzing with shock.

No wonder people are dying in the barracks!

It turned out to be the Li family, a marquis, and it was because of his troop recruitment that he cut off other people's financial resources!

People expected to get money from these aristocratic young masters and rich heirs, but with a single conscription order, all their walking "silver treasures" were locked up in the military camp!

If the guess is right, the next step for this person behind it all is to incite chaos among different parties.

If we can get all those young masters out of the army camp, Yaochi will naturally have a steady flow of wealth!

I just don't know who is behind this Yaochi. Their scheme is so huge!

Even, for silver, to disrupt the military camp!

Li Lao Si was getting a little anxious. "Just a moment, I'll send someone to report to the Lord. This is no small matter. If we are tricked by those behind the scenes and the new soldiers disperse, the Lord's prestige will be ruined, and I will also be branded with the crime of murder!"

Li Laer also said: “I've also asked people to investigate the details of Yaochi. Knowing yourself and your enemy is essential for a better response.”

Li Lao Si stood up, about to find paper and pen to write a few words for the Marquis.

As a result, Jiayin didn't know when she got the jade box in her hands, and even dug out some ointment to examine it carefully.

Li Laer was startled and quickly snatched the box, afraid of hurting his niece.

He anxiously scolded, "You little girl, you haven't figured out what this thing is, how dare you just touch it randomly What if it's poison!"

Jia Yin's expression was very bad, her eyes full of anger!

Because the things in this box are opium!

Or, more vividly, it's opium paste!

This thing in her past life almost caused the five-thousand-year-old ancient civilization to collapse!

Is more formidable than a warship or cannon, able to silently and insidiously corrode the backbone of a nation!

Even before she arrived in this world, countless people had risked their lives and fought on the borders of their homeland, enduring hunger and hardship, all to keep this vicious evil from crossing the line.

To be honest, she could recognize this thing because of the annual promotional education at school.

Back then, when reciting relevant knowledge, the first-place student in each exam would receive a beautiful notebook.

For this beautiful notebook, she has to get first place every time!

To her surprise, she actually saw the real thing in a different world!

"Second Uncle is right, this is poison!" Jia Yin looked at Li La Er who was wiping her hands, and said: "This is a slow-acting poison, also the most powerful poison in the world!"

"Do you recognize this" Mr. Wen and Lao Si asked in unison.

Mr. Li's handkerchief in his hand was rubbed even harder.

Jia Yin hesitated for a moment; she really didn't know how to explain the source of the news.

I've heard of this thing, it's probably called Rose Petal Ointment. It's made from a beautiful flower that wilts and produces a gourd the size of a walnut after it dies. You cut a small slit into the gourd with a knife, and white sap flows out. Once it dries half way, it becomes this ointment-like consistency.

This balm can also be considered a kind of medicine. A tiny bit of it can treat dysentery, relieve pain, and even after being boiled, it can be used to treat burns.

But if you were to rub this ointment into a stick or small ball and put it on the fire to soften, then stuff it into a pipe bowl and continue roasting it, it would produce a kind of smoke.

When someone inhales this smoke, they feel euphoric and invincible.

For example, if someone wants to marry a princess, after consuming it, he will have hallucinations, marrying the princess as his wife, having a wedding ceremony, enjoying the spring breeze and being happy until the hallucination disappears.

This thing is highly addictive. If you don't use it for a while, you will feel weak all over, with pain in your limbs and a heart-wrenching feeling like being eaten by ants.

"When it comes to getting some Fuhong paste, this person can even kill their parents and sell their wife and children. There is no morality left in them at all. "

"But if consumed for a long time, just three to five years, a strong man would become as withered as firewood, his flesh and bones diminishing, his complexion pale and sickly, like an evil spirit. Let alone going into battle, he wouldn't even be able to walk properly!"her grandmother's arm coquettishly, causing Li Laotai to quickly plead for mercy, "Alright, alright, you're right. The reason belongs to your family, so you can say whatever you want. Anyway, the empe...
