The third prince and Duke Qi went to the study room. As soon as he sat down, Duke Qi took out the letter and handed it to him.

After reading the third prince, "My grandfather meant to wait for the news to come to Beijing and ask me to find a way to take over the errand?"

"The old man is famous all over the world. The news of his poisoning spreads, and everyone in the world is paying attention. If you go to Qingping County and can quickly find out the poisoned person, you can leave a good impression in the court and the country. The most important thing is..."

The Duke of Qi lowered his voice, "We can take this opportunity to determine Gu Yi's identity. As long as he is the son of the king, we will escort him back to the capital immediately. As long as the emperor is happy, there will be more and more important chores to you in the future."

The third prince included the eldest prince and the second prince. Both of them were much older than him. They had done a lot of errands for the emperor over the years and were also very high in the hearts of civil and military officials. There was only the third prince, who had just established the mansion for a few years and had never received any important errands. His impression among the ministers was that of Concubine Shu and the grandson of Duke Qi.

"I guess the news will be spread to Beijing soon. The emperor will definitely pass it to me by then. I will suggest you to go, you can prepare it."

"Listen to my grandfather."

The next evening, a fast horse had already entered the capital at the gate of the city, headed straight to the Ministry of Personnel, and presented the note.

Just as the Minister of Personnel who was about to go to the yamen finished reading it, he immediately got up and hurried into the palace and presented the note to the emperor. After reading it, the emperor was furious and threw the note to the dragon's desk. "It's so bold that I am so brave. I'm here to tell you that the Duke of Qi will enter the palace."

The Duke of Qi quickly entered the palace.

"I just received a memorial from the magistrate of Qingping County. The old man was poisoned while giving lectures in Qingping County. I ordered you to set off for Qingping County, find out the poisoned person and behead him."

"I obey the order."

After receiving the order, the Duke of Qi did not retreat immediately. "Your Majesty, this person dares to poison the old man in front of everyone. I think it will not be that simple. I think it is better to send a prince with me to come over. If you find any major conspiracy, you can make a decision in time."

"Accurate, I'll send..."

Thinking of the eldest prince and the second prince being sent out by him, "I sent the third prince with the imperial physician and then over there."

The Duke of Qi withdrew.

The emperor announced the third prince to come over and asked him to take the imperial physician to set off for Qingping County immediately, "If you can't help the old man, you don't have to come back."

"My son follows the order."

After the third prince left the imperial study room, he went directly to the Imperial Hospital to order several imperial doctors, asked them to go home and clean up a little, and took them out of the city with them.

In just half an hour, the Duke of Qi and his men hurried out of the city, and then the third prince. The civil and military officials quickly received the news and sent people to inquire. Only then did they realize that the old man was actually poisoned in Qingping County.

The Dingguo Duke's Mansion also received news.

Gu Yi had already told Duke Ding and Xiao Zheng that the two were not worried, but Duke Ding could not sit still and hurriedly ordered someone to call Duke Ding and said, "Master, that old guy from Duke Qi was not for Xiao'er, right?"

Duke Ding did not dare to tell his wife about Gu Yi's plan, and comforted her after hearing this, "Don't worry, Xiao'er knows it. Even if Duke Qi goes to Qingping County, he can't find anything."

The Duke of Dingguo was not stupid. Seeing that he was not worried at all, he became suspicious and stared at him for a long time, "You can't hide anything from me, right?"

"How is it possible? I was very panicked when I got the news just now. I called Zheng'er over. He said that as long as we don't move, no matter how treacherous Duke of Qi is, he will not get clues from us, and Xiao'er will be safer."

The wife of Duke Dingguo nodded, "What Zheng'er said makes sense, but if I care, it will be messed up. The old Duke of Qi may have arranged someone to monitor us, so we will not move and will piss him to death."

Duke Ding smiled, "Mrs. I'm right, let's not move, and I'm so angry that he's an old guy. However, I think someone should be sent to Si'er and let him tell Mr. Second, that Mr. Second, is not an official in the court, and the news is not so well-informed."

"What are you waiting for? Master, please send someone to deliver a letter to Si'er."

Duke Ding called the housekeeper to come in and asked him to send a servant to deliver a letter to Song Si.

The butler probably called a clever servant to come out and gave a few instructions. The servant rushed to the backyard, took out the horse and went out of the side door, turned over, galloped all the way to Nancheng, got off the horse, and went forward to knock on the door.

Song Si lived alone in the house there. He had just carried Chai He and was about to cook by himself when he heard the knock on the door, he came out of the house and walked quickly to the door to open the door.

"Mr. Song, the Duke of the State asked me to tell you that the old man was poisoned while teaching in Qingping County. His life and death are uncertain now. It is not convenient for the Duke of the State to go to Mr. Second, let me go and let you go."

Song Si didn't even have time to take off the apron, and hurried to the pastry shop.

"Young Master Song, the door has not been locked yet."

When Song Si heard the servant reminding him, he didn't stop, "You locked me up."

The servant took out the lock behind the door, locked the door, led the horse to follow Song Si, and gave him the key.

Song Si took it and hurried to the pastry shop, calling a pastry shop clerk to drive a carriage to take him to Xu Mansion.

The door of Xu's mansion was closed, and Song Si got out of the carriage and went forward to knock on the door.

Since the old man and Meng went to Qingping County, the door here has not been opened for a long time. Suddenly, when Xu Bo suddenly heard the rapid knock on the door, his heart trembled violently, and he took two steps in three steps to open the door.

"Young Master Song?"

"Is Mr. II here?"

"exist."

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Si raised his foot and hurried to Mr. Second, and Xu Bo closed the door and followed behind.

Song Si stopped a servant, "Hurry up, go and report to Mr. Second, what happened to the old man."

Xu Bo's heart skipped a beat.

The servant had already run over to report, and Song Si didn't stop. As soon as he walked past the moon gate, the second gentleman had already come out of the house, "Song Si, what happened to my father?"

"The old man was poisoned while giving lectures in Qingping County!"

Mr. Er's head buzzed and he almost couldn't stand steadily.

Song Si quickly walked a few steps to support him.

"Come and prepare a carriage and go to Qingping County immediately."

Xu Bo's feet shaking and went to give orders.

The second wife also came out of the house and couldn't believe it when she heard the news, "I'll go with you."

Mr. Er was shaking all over, and his lips opened a few times before making a sound, "Stay at home and ask Yan'er to accompany me. Send someone to tell Yan'er."

When Xu Yan heard the report, he didn't even have time to put on his shoes and ran over barefoot, "Who sent the news, is it true or false? How could his grandfather be poisoned?"

Song Si replied, "It was Duke Ding who sent someone to tell me that the emperor had sent Duke Qi and the third prince to Qingping County with the imperial physician."
