Seeing him again in the west courtyard of the White Mansion, Jiang Xuanjin's black eyes moved slightly, and he snorted very lightly.
"Yufeng." He said, "Let him in."
Lu Jingxing paused, looked up and saw him at the door of the wing room, his expression became even uglier. Pushing away Yufeng and walking over, without even thinking about it, he pinched Jiang Xuanjin's lapel and slammed him against the door leaf with a "bang".
"Why are you here again?"
Looking down at his twisted skirt, Jiang Xuanjin frowned slightly, and slashed him back two steps with his backhand, then brushed the folds of his clothes.
"I should ask shopkeeper Lu about this."
What does it mean for a man with a foreign surname to always run into Bai Zhuji's boudoir
The phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, Lu Jingxing didn't have much time to tangle with him, so he walked around him with a cold snort, and walked towards the bed first.
The person on the bed was lying on his stomach with his eyes closed tightly, his face was pale and pale, very much like the appearance of Danyang lying on the soft couch of Feiyun Palace after drinking poison.
With a tight heart, Lu Jingxing stretched out his hand to check her breath.
Jiang Xuanjin stood behind him and said, "There's no need to investigate, she's still alive."
Lu Jingxing ignored him, he had to wait for his fingers to feel her breathing before he breathed a sigh of relief.
He listened to her words yesterday and went to Han Xiao's mansion to discuss matters, but he didn't even know that she had suffered such a big crime. Just now when I came back, I heard a message from the eyeliner, saying that Miss Bai Si was "in danger", so I climbed over the wall and came to the Bai Mansion. Look at her like this, although she is still alive, she really has suffered a lot.
Reaching out to take out a small nanmu box and opening it, Lu Jingxing squeezed the small pill inside and wanted to stuff it into Huaiyu's mouth.
"What are you doing?" Jiang Xuanjin frowned, and stopped him very quickly.
Lu Jingxing said angrily, "What else can you do? You took this medicine last time, so you don't recognize it?"
As he spoke, he waved his hand away and stuffed the medicine into Huaiyu, looked around at the end, and poured tea for her to feed, his movements were smooth and smooth, as familiar and close as if he had been a close friend for many years.
"Who beat her like this?" Seeing her swallowing the medicine, Lu Jingxing finally looked back at Jiang Xuanjin and asked with a serious face.
Jiang Xuanjin stared at the person on the bed for a while, saw that she had no bad reaction after swallowing the pill, and then reached out to check her pulse, before answering him: "Mistress Bai."
"Madam Bai?" Lu Jingxing was a little surprised, "Bai Mengshi, the daughter of drug dealer Meng Hengyuan and the wife of Bai Dezhong?"
"is her."
Looking at the injuries on Li Huaiyu's body, Lu Jingxing frowned: "At any rate, she is also Miss Bai Si's mother. Why are you so ruthless?"
After thinking about it, he asked again: "Did Bai Dezhong uphold justice for Miss Fourth?"
"After all, we are a family." Jiang Xuanjin said casually, "It's just a few words of scolding and two slaps. What else can I do?"
Bai Mengshi's behavior today can be described as extremely absurd, but Bai Dezhong didn't punish her severely, and when Jiang's family left, he just reprimanded her to go back to her room and think about her mistakes, without saying anything else.
Lu Jingxing closed the folding fan with a "slap", and said with a frown, "This is too unreasonable! You majestic Ziyang Lord, faced with such an injustice, you just let it go?"
"It's the Bai family's business after all." Jiang Xuanjin said, "I can't punish Bai Yushi's wife for me."
It's really... It's not appropriate for outsiders to intervene in this kind of thing. Lu Jingxing squeezed the fan bones unhappily, looked at the person on the bed, and suddenly remembered the time when Princess Danyang was still there.
The eldest princess acted arrogantly and domineeringly. As long as she judges that it is a bad person, who cares about your family affairs or which adult wants to favor your wife, she will definitely find crimes and put people in prison, so that people can't live or die!
He used to be quite critical of doing this way, and he always felt that he couldn't make it morally. But now that he encountered such a thing, Lu Jingxing felt that Danyang's actions were quite relieved, at least he would not let the villain go at ease.
"Do you know Bai Mengshi's father?" Just as he was thinking, Ziyang Jun next to him suddenly asked.
Lu Jingxing returned to his senses, and said angrily, "Meng Hengyuan is also a big businessman in the capital, can you not recognize him?"
"If I remember correctly, it seems that someone went to the capital's Yamen to sue this person last month." Jiang Xuanjin said, "If shopkeeper Lu is free, you might as well inquire about who sued him and what, and why it disappeared later. movement."
Hearing this, Lu Jingxing was startled.
Listening to this, why does it sound like you want to trouble the Meng family? But looking at the upright person in front of him, he shook his head, feeling that it was impossible.
Everyone knew that Lord Ziyang never cared about his own business, so why would he seek trouble with the Meng family just because Bai Zhuji was wronged? Maybe it happened to be involved in another case.
But no matter what, Lu Jingxing was willing to help when he wanted to investigate Meng Hengyuan, so he nodded and agreed.
It was the first time that the two people who were at odds with each other got along harmoniously because of the unconscious Li Huaiyu on the bed. However, this harmony only lasted less than half a stick of incense.
"Should you go?" Jiang Xuanjin was slightly displeased to see that he was sitting by the bed and didn't intend to move.
Lu Jingxing said angrily, "I'm not in a hurry to reincarnate, so I have to wait for her to wake up and say a few words?"
"What can I say?" His eyes were dark, "You know her very well?"
Those friends who have been friends for so many years must be more familiar with the murderer than him. Lu Jingxing snorted coldly, spread his fan in front of his chest, and raised his eyebrows to look at him: "What, are you jealous?"
"Why should I be jealous?"
"If you're not jealous, why do you say these sour words?" Lu Jingxing sneered, "It seems like I didn't like me getting close to Danyang back then."
Jiang Xuanjin was also very unhappy when Princess Danyang flirted with him in the past, so she almost posted a notice at the entrance of the palace, stating that "Lu Jingxing and dogs are not allowed to enter". Whenever they met in the palace, they would always try to run him down with a sullen face.
Lu Jingxing even wondered for a while whether this person was interested in Danyang.
Meeting the meaningful eyes of the person in front of him, Jiang Xuanjin paused, and then sneered.
Why don't you like Lu Jingxing getting close to Danyang? In the past two decades, he was appointed as the etiquette tutor of the young emperor and the eldest princess by the senior officials in the court, teaching them how to stand, how to sit, how to behave, right and wrong. Li Huailin was quite obedient, but Li Huaiyu, the Eldest Princess of Danyang, was lawless. She not only made friends with merchants, but also invited people like Lu Jingxing to drink in the palace, disturbing the order in the palace, causing criticism from all officials and ridicule from all over the world.
Under such circumstances, how could he be expected to show a good face to Lu Jingxing who was wandering around in the palace
"However, you treat Zhuji much better than Danyang." Looking down at the familiar string of Buddhist beads in Huaiyu's hand, Lu Jingxing looked complicated, "A lively and lovely girl is more affectionate."
His tone was very strange, like teasing, but also like annoyance.
Jiang Xuanjin thought he was aggrieved for Danyang, so he snorted and looked at the person on the bed.
The eldest princess Danyang and the fourth young lady Bai, one is deeply scheming, the other is foolish; Putting these two together, anyone would treat the latter better, right? What's wrong
While watching, the person lying on the bed suddenly moved.
Jiang Xuanjin was taken aback, stepped forward and sat down on the bed, reached out and rolled her eyelids.
Li Huaiyu had been in a coma all day, feeling his body was burning in the fire and frying in the frying pan for a while, his whole mind was full of buzzing and piercing sounds. Finally, the fire was extinguished and the oil was dried up, but his whole body was weak and he couldn't open his eyes no matter what.
While she was struggling, someone suddenly helped her and shone a bright light for her.
Opening her eyes in a daze, it took her a while to adapt to the surrounding environment. She felt that her posture was uncomfortable, and just as she wanted to move, pain surged up from her limbs.
"Hmm." Huaiyu frowned and snorted.
Someone next to her immediately scolded her: "What are you doing!"
The voice was so fierce that she felt guilty when she heard it. With difficulty moving his eyes to look, Huaiyu saw Jiang Xuanjin whose eyes were bloodshot.
Ziyang Jun has high requirements on his appearance, even if she jumped off the wall and pressed him to the ground, he still looked good and elegant. What's the matter now, I can actually describe myself as haggard.
Huaiyu really wanted to open his mouth to tease him, but his body was in severe pain, his pale lips muttered for a long time, but he couldn't utter a word.
"I know what you want to say." Jiang Xuanjin looked at her with unfriendly eyes, almost gritted his teeth and said, "Who do you think dragged me down like this?"
Huaiyu took a light breath, bared her teeth and smiled.
Seeing her expression, Jiang Xuanjin was annoyed and found that instead of feeling angry, his throat was a little tight.
Don't start in embarrassment, he looked at Lu Jingxing next to him: "She's awake. Talk. Then go."
Lu Jingxing rolled his eyes at him, imitating his tone and said, "Hurry up, go reincarnate? Anyway, I'm not in a hurry."
Huaiyu laughed aloud, pulling at the wound on his body, and gasped for breath in a hurry.
Jiang Xuanjin glared at her with a sullen face: "Do you think your life is too hard?"
Huaiyu blinked pitifully: No wow!
Still laughing? Jiang Xuanjin was very upset, and looked at Lu Jingxing with more indifference: "When she wakes up, Bai Yushi will definitely come over. If you think it's okay, then don't leave."
Lu Jingxing's fanning hand froze.
He came over the wall today, it would be embarrassing if he bumped into Bai Dezhong head-on.
After glancing at Jiang Xuanjin angrily, Lu Jingxing got up, took out a blue and white porcelain vase from his sleeve and put it beside the bed.
"This is the elixir. I brought all the rest. You can eat whatever you can. There are only advantages and no disadvantages. Seeing that your body is still weak, don't worry about it. You will keep it alive. When you have the strength to speak, Let Lingxiu come and let me know."
After thinking about it, I added another sentence: "It's best to choose a time when this annoying person is not around."
Li Huaiyu turned his eyes to look at him, blinked his eyelids lightly: I know!
The "annoying person" next to him said coldly, "Walk slowly."
With a soft snort, Lu Jingxing turned around with his fan, paused, and then left very quickly.
Jiang Xuanjin looked at the medicine bottle on the bed strings, and said calmly: "He treats you very well, and he gives you clothes and jewelry, as well as precious elixir."
Huaiyu listened and moved her nose slightly.
"Smell what?" He was puzzled.
Pursing her lips, she finally spit out a word: "Vinegar."
Jiang Xuanjin's face darkened: "It's all like this, and you're still talking nonsense?"
How is this nonsense, it is simply conclusive evidence! If it wasn't for his lack of energy to speak, Li Huaiyu would definitely have teased him. But right now... She could only move her eyes, trying to make him understand what she meant.
However, just when her eyeballs were spinning, Jiang Xuanjin reached out, took a clean white cloth strip beside her, and tied a knot around her eyes.
Huaiyu: "..."
This is too bullying, right
She opened her mouth, aggrieved and trying to gain some status for the patient, but unexpectedly, her lips softened.
Something cold touched her lips and rubbed gently, and the feeling disappeared after just one click.
Li Huaiyu froze, pursed his lips, and didn't recover for a while.
This breath... Did he post it
"Be honest and rest." Jiang Xuanjin's voice came from the front, indifferent and serious, "I'll get someone to prepare some porridge."
Said, got up and walked out the door.
The voice sounded so normal that nothing happened, Huaiyu froze for a while, thinking that she might be thinking too much. Why did Jiang Xuanjin stick up to kiss her? At most, she saw something on her lips and reached out to wipe it off.
think too much!
Shaking her head lightly, Huaiyu continued to close her eyes and meditate, with a white cloth covering her eyes, she couldn't see the light, she couldn't see the surroundings, and naturally she couldn't see the slightly red ears of Ziyang Jun who walked out.
Fourth Miss Bai finally woke up!
As soon as the news got out, everyone in the Bai family ran to the west courtyard.
Naturally, Bai Dezhong was the first one to come. When he was sitting by the bed, Li Huaiyu ate a bowl of medicated porridge, and he already had the strength to speak. However, she didn't really want to talk to Bai Dezhong, so she simply pretended to be dumb.
"Just now I asked the doctor for my father, and the doctor said that your external injuries will heal in half a month, but your internal injuries need to be healed slowly. The Jiang family sent a lot of medicinal materials, and all of them were given to Lingxiu for my father."
Bai Dezhong still put on his airs with a straight face, his tone was stiff, but his words were good: "Your room is too small. For my father, I asked someone to clean up the main room in the south courtyard. The place is spacious. , suitable for your recovery."
After being punished by the family law, did Bai De feel sorry for her as if he had reopened his senses? Huaiyu was very surprised, she didn't know what happened when she was in a coma, she just felt that the old man suddenly became more pleasing to the eye.
If Bai Dezhong's appearance was considered "pleasing to the eye", then the relatives of the Bai family who came to her next could be called "flattery".
"Zhuji, you must take care of yourself and get better soon! We are all still waiting for the wedding wine."
"When you were not awake, I was so anxious to death that my aunt even went to the temple and lit incense for you."
"Look at this injury, it's really pitiful, Bai Mengshi has gone too far! Don't worry, Zhuji, we will ask De Zhong to explain to you."
Sending away these faces she had never seen before with a blank expression, she finally asked Lingxiu in a hoarse voice after the door closed, "Am I going to be enthroned as emperor tomorrow?"
Lingxiu was startled by her words, subconsciously looked at Ziyang Jun sitting next to her, and shook her head anxiously: "Don't talk nonsense!"
"No nonsense." Huaiyu was puzzled. "If it wasn't for me to ascend the throne, why are they so courteous?"
Lingxiu whispered: "You are about to marry Jun Shang as his wife, and you will be a distinguished wife Jun in the future. Those people have offended you a lot before, so why don't you rush to curry favor now?"
Huaiyu was taken aback, then turned his neck stiffly towards Jiang Xuanjin: "You've got it all done?"
Jiang Xuanjin closed the last booklet and nodded.
Amazing, she can lie under his big tree to enjoy the shade without doing anything? Huaiyu thought happily, this feeling of being covered by someone is really good.
"Hey, by the way, it's already this hour, why hasn't the kitchen delivered the medicine yet?" Lingxiu looked out suspiciously, thought for a while, and said, "Maidservant, let's go to the kitchen to have a look."
Jiang Xuanjin nodded, watched Lingxiu run out, and stood up as soon as she put down the folder in her hand.
"I'll return this thing to you." He took out the golden thread and eight treasures pearl hairpin and put it in her hand, "It's getting late, I should go back."
Huaiyu heard it. Pouted unhappily.
Jiang Xuanjin glanced at her: "What?"
"When you were sick, I never left." She coughed aggrievedly, "But now, I'm still in such a miserable state, you actually want to leave."
As he spoke, his eyebrows drooped, and his eyes were watery.
Jiang Xuanjin said angrily: "I've been staying in your room, is it plausible?"
"Why is it outrageous?" she said, "Our marriage is settled. If you stay and take care of me, others will surely praise you for your kindness and righteousness. Who will say that you can't gossip?"
Jiang Xuanjin choked, and frowned: "Can you really say that your body doesn't hurt anymore?"
"It hurts..." Huaiyu wrinkled her face and acted coquettishly with tears in her eyes, "This time it really hurts, especially on the back, it took twenty sticks."
His heart tightened slightly, Jiang Xuanjin sat back on the bed and asked her with an uneasy expression, "Why was he punished?"
"Why else?" Huaiyu snorted, "The mother and daughter of the Bai family didn't want to make me feel better. They found excuses to beat me. I was not convinced, so I started a fight with my slave."
After taking a breath, she went on to say: "I'm amazing. I knocked down several of them by myself. It's just that I don't have enough strength, otherwise I wouldn't be held down by them in the end."
Jiang Xuanjin looked at her gloomyly: "Should I praise you for being world-class in martial arts?"
"Thank you." She grinned, "Martial arts are unrivaled, just praise me for my agility."
"..."
Jiang Xuanjin gave her a sneer, the voice was like an ice knife, which made Li Huaiyu instantly honest.
"It hurts so much..." She coquettishly weakly.
Standing up with a sullen face, Jiang Xuanjin went to find the medicine left by Lu Jingxing, and fed her one. When she put her hand on the bed and stuffed the medicine into her mouth, the person on the bed moved.
"What are you bothering about?" He was slightly annoyed, followed her gaze and lowered his head, and saw her hand that was trying to move.
Huaiyu didn't say a word, concentrated on exerting force on his hand, endured the pain in his arm, and moved his fingers to his hand next to him little by little.
Both hands were close at hand, but it took her a lot of effort to touch him.
Jiang Xuanjin was taken aback for a moment, his heart seemed to be scratched lightly by something, itching so much that he subconsciously raised his hand. He took the initiative to touch her finger.
Huaiyu grinned and smiled, his eyes shining brightly. Jiang Xuanjin was stunned, looked at her for a while, then withdrew his hand with a straight face.
"Are you in a hurry?" He asked coldly.
Li Huaiyu giggled and didn't speak.
When Lingxiu came back with the medicine, she saw Mr. Ziyang sitting by the bed, his face was slightly red, and his eyes were full of displeasure. And her young lady was lying half sideways on the bed, smiling mischievously.
This scene is really embarrassing to enter. But looking down at the medicine in the tray, Lingxiu went forward with her head down, and handed the medicine bowl to Jiang Xuanjin.
Jiang Xuanjin blew on the medicine and handed it to her lips. Huaiyu smelled the bitter taste and frowned: "I don't want to drink it."
"You think this is a vegetable market, and you can still bargain?" He raised his eyebrows.
"Do you have to drink it?"
"certainly!"
"Then you test the medicine for me." Huaiyu said very vindictively, "I tried it for you back then."
Tried the whole bowl!
"..." Jiang Xuanjin felt that the phrase "It is better to offend a villain than a woman" may not be fallacious. Look at this one in front of her, how long ago did that happen, and she is still reading it.
Scan the room. Chengxu and Yufeng were waiting outside, and he should not be seen by them if he took a sip secretly. Thinking about it, Jiang Xuanjin scooped up a spoonful of the medicine and quickly swallowed it into his mouth.
Huaiyu asked him nervously, "Is it bitter?"
Swallowing the medicine, he said: "Testing the medicine is to test whether it is toxic, not to test whether it is bitter or not."
"How can medicine be toxic? I just want to know the taste." She frowned.
Glancing at her, Jiang Xuanjin was about to say: It's bitter, but you have to drink it too.
However, as soon as the word "very" came out of his mouth, he felt a sweetness in his throat and frowned to suppress it, but his heart also ached. He clenched his fists and struggled for a while, but he still couldn't hold back, and he vomited blood as he lowered his head.
The jet-black color was splashed on the ground and dyed into palm-sized marks, which is shocking to look at.
The blood vomited suddenly, Huaiyu was startled, her eyes widened suddenly, but she couldn't move, she could only hoarse and shout: "Lingxiu, give him a medicine!"
Lingxiu hurriedly took orders, poured out a medicine from the blue and white porcelain bottle, and handed over water, then turned her head and wanted to call Chengxu and Yufeng outside.
"Shut up." Jiang Xuanjin swallowed the medicine, frowned and said, "I'm fine."
There was something wrong with the bowl of medicine, but he only took a sip, so he shouldn't die. If two people from outside are allowed in now, the entire White House might be implicated.
Huaiyu looked at him with a frown, struggled to move on the bed, and said in a hoarse voice, "Lie down for a while."
Lying beside her? What kind of words! Jiang Xuanjin shook his head, sitting still to recuperate his inner breath. Lingxiu didn't dare to move, Huaiyu also stared at him without saying a word, the room was silent for a moment.
After a few sticks of incense, Jiang Xuanjin opened his eyes and his complexion improved a lot.
"The medicine that Lu Jingxing sent is indeed a rare treasure. From now on, you will take one every day, and let them boil the soup and medicine."
Li Huaiyu looked at the medicine bowl on the low table next to the bed with complicated eyes: "You know that some people have evil intentions, why let them stay here?"
"Evidence," he said.
Huaiyu immediately understood what Jiang Xuanjin was thinking, but after coughing twice, she sighed: "It's useless, if I was really poisoned to death, this thing can still be used as evidence in court. But if I didn't die, even if I knew There is something wrong with the medicine, and it can’t do anything to people.”
The only people in the White House who dared to drug her and want her to die were Bai Xuanji, mother and daughter. If they are found out, Bai Dezhong will definitely not sue them in court just as he favored Bai Mengshi this time. No matter how much evidence there is, it will be gone in the end. What's the use
Jiang Xuanjin didn't answer her, pondered for a moment, and said in a low voice: "It seems that I really have to stay in the White Mansion for two more days."
Fortunately, he tasted it first, if she didn't taste it, she would lose her life that was so hard to save. Murderous threats are everywhere in this White Mansion, her injury is still not healed, where can he go
Huaiyu looked at him quite moved, and replied with a smile, "Okay."
If he wanted to stay, she would naturally not refuse. It's extremely boring to lie on the bed to recuperate from an injury. Wouldn't it be a good thing to have someone around to tease and amuse you? What's more, if someone wanted to harm her, Jiang Xuanjin went to investigate, which saved her trouble and gave her peace of mind, which is great!
So that night, Jiang Xuanjin and Li Huaiyu moved from the wing room in the west courtyard to the main house in the south courtyard. Although they hurt from being bumped by the stretcher, Huaiyu was still very happy seeing the spacious and exquisite room.
After Bai Dezhong heard the news, he knew that Lord Ziyang would continue to stay in the mansion to take care of him, so he quickly ordered someone to clean up the wing next to the main house in the south courtyard. The meaning is very clear: it is okay to take care of patients, but we still need to pay attention to decency.
Jiang Xuanjin was very obedient. As soon as the wing room was cleaned up, he fell asleep first. He didn't close his eyes for two days, and was injured by the poison. He slept very deeply this time, and it was noon the next day when he woke up.
Compared with the weakness when he woke up on the first day, Huaiyu is much more energetic today. After taking the medicine, the pain all over his body has eased a lot, and his voice has become louder.
"With you here, my food has improved a lot." She looked at him and smiled.
Jiang Xuanjin walked over and glanced at the dishes on the table. Looking at the things Lingxiu was holding to feed her, he asked, "Have you tried poison?"
Huaiyu nodded: "I have tried the silver needle, and the medical lady has also seen it, so there is no problem."
Nodding, he sat down at the table and began to eat very quietly. One of the Jiang family's family rules: don't talk when you eat. So every time he picked up the chopsticks, Jiang Xuanjin would not speak.
However, the man behind him was a house sparrow with a loud voice, and when he saw him, he began to twitter: "I was very uncomfortable yesterday, and I couldn't speak fluently. I thought I was going to die for a long time, but when I woke up today, I found that my voice was fine. .”
"The doctor girl said that I was too noisy. She said that all the other girls she met were gentle, and they didn't like to talk when they were sick. She never saw me talk so much."
"By the way, the robe you are wearing today is really beautiful."
The veins on his forehead twitched, Jiang Xuanjin put down his chopsticks and turned around: "Can you shut up?"
Huaiyu, who was biting the vegetables, was taken aback for a moment, and said quite aggrieved: "Lingxiu said that you loved me very much before, why are you yelling at me again!"
Who cares about her! Jiang Xuanjin's eyes were cold: "If I knew you would be so noisy after being rescued, I should have let it go."
After swallowing the food, he took another mouthful of rice. Huaiyu smiled and said: "Don't be stubborn, I know you are reluctant."
Before saying that he was reluctant to part with himself, it was simply teasing him. Now Li Huaiyu found out that this person was really reluctant to bear her, and he was not forced out by her.
This is a great thing.
Looking at her with disgust, Jiang Xuanjin turned around and continued eating.
He didn't go to the court for two days, many people in the court asked what happened to Lord Ziyang, even the emperor asked a question in the court hall, so Bai Dezhong had no choice but to come out and answer like this.
Therefore, the doggerel poem "Beauty in the Baifu bows down, and the emperor will not go to court early" spread all the way from the court to the market, and the people in the capital expressed shock: Dare to love Jiang's stunned betrothal gift, not Jiang Yan marrying Bai Er Miss, but Mr. Ziyang wants to marry Miss Bai Si
For a while, countless people rushed to the White Mansion to watch, saying that they were visiting a sick man, but in fact they were going to meet the rumored Mr. Ziyang who was "excessively pining for a beautiful woman".
Jiang Xuanjin was in a bad mood, and closed the gate of the South Courtyard with a wave of his hand, and put Chengxu and Yufeng at the gate, and no one was allowed to enter.
Li Huaiyu lay on the bed with a smile on his face: "It seems very lively outside?"
glance at her. Jiang Xuanjin said: "If you talk too much, I will throw you out together."
Once she closed her mouth, Huaiyu fell silent, but the smile still came out from her eyes, shining brightly.
"Miss, Your Majesty." Lingxiu came in with the medicine and told them as usual, "The afternoon medicine is here again."
The pitch-black bowl of decoction smelled similar to the ones he had tasted before. Jiang Xuanjin didn't let Lingxiu put it in the cabinet again, but handed it over to Chengxu.
"Go find someone to identify the medicinal ingredients inside." He ordered, "Be clean so that no one can see it."
"Yes." Take advantage of the empty answer and go away.
Huaiyu watched, yawned lazily, and moved her body to lie on Jiang Xuanjin's lap.
"What are you doing?" He said in a bad tone.
Holding his hand aggrievedly, Huaiyu said, "It's uncomfortable lying on the pillow."
The pillow is uncomfortable, but the legs are comfortable? Jiang Xuanjin said with a stern face: "Don't push yourself just because I don't want to care about the injuries recently!"
"Look at you, you're pissing me off again!" Huaiyu adjusted her posture and said comfortably, "I'm also your future wife. How can this be an inch?"
"Have you forgotten what I said again?" Jiang Xuanjin frowned, "You and I get married. It's a stopgap measure."
Compared with the bridal chamber, he may prefer the Buddhist hall. When the time comes when she walks through the door, the two will still go their own way.
Yawning, Huaiyu didn't bother to talk to him at all, anyway, he didn't turn her away, and rubbed his face against his leg, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
The material of Jiang Xuanjin's robe was not thick, and when she rubbed against her, he could almost feel the touch of her face. His body froze, and he stared down at her with a look of looking at a monster.
Staring and staring, he found that her untwisted hair was scattered all over his arms, it was long and smooth, and he wanted to look at it...
By the time his brain came to his senses, his hand had already been put on it.
What a crime!
So, half an hour later, Lu Jingxing came in with Chengxu, and what he saw was "Su Xi didn't comb his hair, and his silk hair was wrapped around his shoulders. Wan Shenlang's lap, what a pity."
Lu Jingxing kicked the door with an ugly expression.
With a bang, Huaiyu woke up startled. He glanced sideways blankly.
"Shopkeeper Lu?" She blinked, "Why is this hour here?"
After moving a stool to sit by the bed, Lu Jingxing asked her very seriously, "Are you really going to marry this person?"
Huaiyu naturally knew what Lu Jingxing was worried about. Scratching her head, she struggled to get up from Jiang Xuanjin's lap, trying to figure out how to explain it.
When her legs felt cold, Jiang Xuanjin's jaw tightened, and she looked sideways at the person on the bed.
"Your Majesty." Without paying attention to his eyes, Huaiyu asked cautiously, "Can you let shopkeeper Lu and I have a few words alone?"
Okay, once Lu Jingxing came, it's okay to rush to avoid suspicion with him, and talk to him alone? Jiang Xuanjin sneered, and really wanted to tell her that even if she didn't pass the door, she would be immersed in a pig cage if she didn't obey women's morals!
As soon as this thought came out, he himself smelled a little sour.
Slightly startled, his hostility disappeared, and after he was stunned, he felt a little ridiculous. what is he doing Do you really care about her? Just now they were thinking about their own lives, but now they are thinking about this mess, are they slapping themselves in the face
stand up. Jiang Xuanjin walked out without looking back, stepped out of the main house, and closed the door thoughtfully.
You can say whatever you like, he is a friend and he doesn't care.
The door closed, Huaiyu sighed: "Do you think it's not good for me to marry him?"
"Could it be any good?" Lu Jingxing was about to die of anger, "You said before that you wanted to marry Jiang Yan to get close to Jiang Xuanjin, I have no objection, after all Jiang Yan is just a brat, you are more than enough to deal with him. But Jiang Xuanjin? Have you forgotten what this man has done?"
"I haven't forgotten." Huaiyu leaned against the head of the bed, looked down at the bruises on her hands, "It's because I haven't forgotten, so I think it's better to marry him."
As a nephew and daughter-in-law, there are many rules to be followed, and there are few opportunities to get close to him. But Mrs. Jun is different, she can gain Jiang Xuanjin's trust step by step, know his most secrets, use him to achieve her own goals, and then send him to die!
Such a revenge plan is more interesting than simply killing him.
Lu Jingxing frowned: "I can help you with whatever you want, but this method is too dangerous."
"Jing Xing." She smiled at him, "You have to trust me, there is nothing I can't do if I want to do it."
Yes, she has done everything she wanted to do for so many years. But in the end? Lu Jingxing lowered his eyes, he almost couldn't hold the jade bone fan firmly in his hand.
"Did you come back alive just for revenge?" He asked hoarsely.
Thinking about this question sideways, Huaiyu replied: "Not only, but this is the best thing I can do right now."
As he spoke, he laughed again: "When I'm doing this, maybe I can help Huailin."
Huailin, Li Huailin again. Lu Jingxing laughed, and finally understood: "The person you love the most is your younger brother, and the person you hate the most is Jiang Xuanjin."
So when she came back alive, she wanted Li Huailin to be well, and secondly, she wanted Jiang Xuanjin to die.
What about him
Hearing that something was wrong with his voice, Huaiyu was startled: "What's wrong with you?"
"...It's okay." Spreading his fan, Lu Jingxing blocked his eyes, paused for a while, and then returned to normal, "I just feel a little angry because I can't persuade you."
"Oh, what's so angry. It's not the first day you know my temper." Huaiyu comforted him, "I can't persuade him anyway, so why don't you encourage me?"
"Encouragement?" Lu Jingxing took down the fan and rolled his eyes, "If you don't listen to my good advice and insist on going your own way, I won't care about you if something happens to you in the future, but you still want to encourage me?"
Saying that, he got up and shook off the hem of his clothes to leave.
"Hey!" Huaiyu called him hastily, "Are you really angry?"
Lu Jingxing didn't turn his head back, and snorted coldly, "I didn't come here to look for you today. There is some clue about how Jiang Xuanjin asked me to help yesterday. I have to tell him."
"Huh?" Huaiyu was shocked, "You help him?"
"Who do you think it's all for?"
After leaving those words behind, Lu Jingxing opened the door and went out.
Li Huaiyu leaned against the head of the bed, frowning and looking at his back, vaguely feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
Jiang Xuanjin copied Buddhist scriptures in the guest room, and after copying most of them stroke by stroke, Lu Jingxing finally came to him.
"Meng Hengyuan was sued in court before because he secretly traded imperial banned drugs." As soon as he entered the room, he closed the door and said, "This crime is serious, but the person who sued has no power and power, and it was just to vent his personal anger, so later It's over."
After a pause, Jiang Xuanjin looked up at him: "Prohibited drugs?"
"Yes, the imperial court has issued a document stating that there are several precious and special medicinal materials that are prohibited from being bought and sold by the people, and only in the palace. Meng Hengyuan is in the medicinal materials business, so he understands what cannot be sold. But he is very greedy for money. Regardless of everything. It is inevitable that some people who don't like him will take advantage of it and sue him."
However, Meng Hengyuan is Bai Dezhong's father-in-law and has friendship with other officials in the DPRK and China, so it is not easy to really convict him.
Jiang Xuanjin put down her pen, nodded and said, "Thank you."
Looking at him, Lu Jingxing sneered, "Thank you, I'll take it as a congratulatory gift to you in advance."
Hearing this, Jiang Xuanjin raised his eyes: "The most dignified businessman in Kyoto, how many words are you sending as a congratulatory gift?"
"A few words for your congratulatory gift are enough." Lu Jingxing smiled, "As for Zhuji, I naturally have to prepare separately."
The dowry was given yesterday, but this man saw him yesterday, but he didn't say a word, which made him almost die of fright when he heard the news on the street today!
What kind of heart do you have!
The more he looked at Jiang Xuanjin's face, the angrier he became, Lu Jingxing flicked his sleeves angrily: "Farewell!"
Seeing his distraught appearance, Jiang Xuanjin's gloomy heart suddenly cleared up.
"Shopkeeper Lu, go slowly." He said, "When the wedding invitation is finished, I will send someone to send it to the residence."
Pick the one with the scariest face and the biggest letter to give away.
With a "bang", shopkeeper Lu kicked his door again.
Jiang Xuanjin pursed his lips, received the Buddhist scriptures, and said to Yufeng, "Find the name of the imperial court's banned medicine."
"Yes." Yu Feng responded and left.
At night, Huaiyu finally waited until Jiang Xuanjin came to her room, and happily said: "My hands don't hurt so much anymore!"
Most of the bruises on her wrists were from fighting with someone, and it wasn't the worst at all. Jiang Xuanjin looked at her expressionlessly, and gave a cold "hmm".
Li Huaiyu said unhappily, "Why did you become like this again?"
It was fine before, and I let her hug and cuddle, and even fed her water. Is it winter weather outside or what? Go out and freeze his iceberg back
Sitting down at the table, Jiang Xuanjin said, "I've found out something."
"Huh? What's the matter?"
Reaching out and handing her two pieces of letter paper, Jiang Xuanjin asked, "Are you literate?"
Nonsense, she even learned calligraphy from him! Li Huaiyu pursed his lips, and asked Lingxiu to pass the things to her, and held them in his hand to look at them.
These two pieces of paper were written on medicinal materials, and the name of the medicinal materials on one of them was very familiar to her, and they were all available in the palace. The medicinal ingredients on the other sheet are more common, and it looks like a prescription.
It's just that, in this ordinary prescription, there is a name that is repeated with the other one.
a little blood.
Slightly startled, Li Huaiyu said: "Could this be the prescription for the bowl of medicine you drank?"
Jiang Xuanjin glanced at her unexpectedly: "How do you know?"
"This bit of blood is poison." Huaiyu said subconsciously, "You vomited blood after drinking that bowl of medicine yesterday, maybe it was caused by this thing."
Originally, I planned to trick her and then explain it again, but I didn't expect her to know? Jiang Xuanjin stood up and looked at her with a frown: "Why do you know that a little blood is poison?"
This medicinal material is forbidden by the imperial court, that is, it is only available in the palace. How could she, a young lady of the White House, know it
In his heart, Li Huaiyu rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "What's so strange? There are many medical books in my father's study. I went in and read them before, but I didn't remember anything else. I just memorized them in the books. drawing."
As he spoke, he gestured again: "Such a small red fruit is called a bit of blood, 'very poisonous in nature. If you eat it, you will cough up blood and die with weak Qi'—this is what is written in medical books."
Her eyes were clear, and she didn't feel guilty when she looked at her for half a minute. She didn't think she was lying. Jiang Xuanjin pursed her lips, secretly thinking that she was suspicious, and sat back slowly: "That's right, I asked Chengxu to find someone to deduce this prescription based on the boiled medicine. It's what the mansion boiled for you. One piece is a forbidden drug by the imperial court."
Pretentiously staring in surprise, Li Huaiyu tried his best to look like an idiot who had never seen the world: "Is the imperial court banned drugs?"
"Well, that is to say, this kind of medicinal material should not appear in the folk, but it happened to appear in your medicine bowl." Jiang Xuanjin said, "It just so happens that Meng Hengyuan, Bai Meng's father, is a drug dealer. He was accused of selling and selling prohibited drugs."
Once the hatchback is combined, it becomes very clear who is trying to harm her.
Huaiyu was stunned for a while, then asked him, "Are you going to attack Meng Hengyuan?"
What he said was so ugly, Jiang Xuanjin couldn't help but frown: "Someone has done something wrong but got away with it. I use the evidence to bring him to justice. What kind of start is it?"
"Okay, bring it to justice!" Huaiyu laughed. "Then are you going to bring the evidence to the palace to sue him or something?"
Sue a private businessman? Jiang Xuanjin gave her a white look: "I shouldn't do this anyway."
Who should do it? Huaiyu was puzzled.
However, she soon knew the answer.
"I said..." Seeing the man put the empty medicine bowl back to her hand, and poured another bottle of pig blood on the ground, Li Huaiyu had a bad feeling, "I'm still recuperating, so you have the heart to drag me into the water?"
After putting away the pig's blood bottle, Jiang Xuanjin looked at her expressionlessly and said, "Next, you just need to lie down."
After saying that, he got up and gave Chengxu and Yufeng a wink.
Chengxu Yufeng understood, walked out of the door of the main house, took a deep breath, and shouted in unison: "Come here! Fourth Miss is poisoned—"
Li Huaiyu's mouth twitched.
The quiet and peaceful White Mansion became lively again, Chengxu and Yufeng's voices were so loud that the news that Miss Fourth was about to die of poisoning quickly spread throughout the mansion.
When Bai Mengshi heard the news, she was so happy that she got up and went to find Bai Xuanji. However, as soon as she stepped out of the door of the east courtyard with one foot, she was detained by Chengxu and Yufeng.
"What are you doing?" Bai Mengshi panicked and scolded, "I am the mistress of the Bai family, how dare you attack me!"
Yufeng ignored her, but took advantage of his temper and said: "Your Majesty and Lord Bai are waiting for you in the front hall."
wait for her? Bai Mengshi was startled, and his heart sank. Immediately struggled: "I don't believe it, you are not from the White House, why arrest me! You still don't let go!"
Turning a deaf ear to it, he took advantage of the wind and escorted her away.
"It's really presumptuous! Even if you are Ziyang Lord's people, there is no reason to bully others in my Bai Mansion!" Bai Mengshi kept making noise, "There is no law!"
Standing in the front hall, Jiang Xuanjin heard scolding voices from far and near, and said to Bai De, who was sitting in the main seat: "Here comes the man."
Bai Dezhong looked at Bai Mengshi who was escorted in, and bowed to him with complicated emotions: "Your Majesty, is there... something wrong?"
Glancing at him, Jiang Xuanjin said: "If Mr. Bai thinks it's inappropriate to escort you to the front hall, you might as well follow me to the Yamen of the capital. This case should have been tried in the Yamen."
Upon hearing this, Bai De fell silent.
"Master!" Bai Mengshi twisted her body and broke away from the restraints of the two people behind her, and knelt down towards Bai De again while holding the handkerchief, "You want to make the decision for this concubine! These two people..."
"Meng Shuqin." Bai De spoke again, interrupting her crying, "Did you make someone boil the medicine Zhuji took these two days?"
Bai Mengshi was startled, and immediately shook her head: "My concubine listened to the master's words and thought about it in the room, why would I ask someone to make medicine for Miss Fourth?"
"But the girl in the kitchen said. You pointed to the girl in charge of decocting medicine."
Shaking his head again and again, Bai Mengshi said: "I don't know anything, I never pointed anyone to the kitchen."
It was really clean. Jiang Xuanjin sneered, waved and asked someone to bring a few people up.
"Ma'am!" The little maid who made the medicine came up and hurriedly knelt beside Bai Mengshi. Later, the butler came forward with a booklet in his hands, and said, "Master, this is the list of servants and maids in the mansion. This maid is called Fu Lu, and she works in the madam's yard. She has been helping in the kitchen for the past two days."
Bai Mengshi's face turned pale, and she knelt with her hands clasped, her back straight.
Jiang Xuanjin looked at her and asked, "Do you still have to say that you don't know anything?"
Shaking his head stiffly, Bai Mengshi said, "Even if this maid is in my yard, I don't know what she did."
"I don't know what you did, but you left it so clean?" Bai Dezhong's face was ugly.
Bai Mengshi pouted her neck and said: "The concubine's identity is cleared because I know that the king intends to make trouble with my concubine. Even if I stay in the room for two days honestly, there will be unwarranted charges against my concubine. Prove it."
"If you have a clear conscience, why bother to defend yourself?" Jiang Xuanjin said in a low voice, "Madam, this servant girl boiled medicine for Fourth Miss Bai. But she put something unclean into the medicine, causing Miss Fourth to be poisoned and comatose. Her life is hanging by a thread. This is The crime of murder, Madam thinks, is it clear?"
Bai Mengshi shook her head, gritted her teeth and repeated: "I don't know anything about myself!"
Stubborn.
Jiang Xuanjin shook her head and looked at Bai Dezhong: "In my lord's opinion, what should I do about this matter?"
Bai Dezhong stared at Bai Mengshi, with a fierce and terrifying look in his eyes: "There are all the witnesses and material evidence, even if you refuse to admit it to death, what should you do? Come, please ask the family law!"
