Chapter 20: Poisoning (1)

Lan Zhi lit the candle in the room, found the basin with water in the house, and walked to the girl a few times, and splashed the water in the basin at her!

The water extinguished the incense burner, drenched the robe, and made the girl excited. She originally closed her eyes, but at this time she opened her eyes in confusion and looked at Lan Zhi, and Banxiang Fang smiled lowly: "It's you." She looked down at the incense burner, and was not annoyed, but muttered, "Don't you like the smell?" I'm sorry, I didn't ask you first......"

She struggled to sit up, but she was obviously unable to do so, and she tried for a long time before finally giving up. Then she simply collapsed to the ground, staring blankly into the void.

Lan Zhi leaned over, snatched the incense burner from the girl's hand, and went to the bathroom to pour the spices into the sink. Seeing that the spices were washed away by the water, she returned to the bedroom, squatted down beside the girl, looked down at her and asked, "Do you still have this thing?" โ€

The girl's phoenix eyes were half closed, and she reacted slowly: "Oh, do you ask the jade pill...... Yes I bought a lot of ...... Oh, what I have is money. โ€

As she spoke, she wanted to close her eyes, but Lan Zhi reached out to shake her: "Where are you there?" โ€

The girl was disturbed again, so she wrung her eyebrows: "Don't make noise......" But the displeased expression quickly faded away, replaced by an ethereal smile: "My mother is teaching me how to embroider clothes......

Lan Zhi sighed. Obviously, the medicinal properties of the jade pill have attacked, and the girl is immersed in beautiful hallucinations and cannot extricate herself. She dragged the girl out of her coat, carried her to the bathroom, and threw her straight into the bath!

With the sound of popping water, the girl sank into the water and stopped moving for a while. But in a moment, she struggled to her feet, her limbs staggered to the surface, and then she threw herself on the edge of the pool and vomited.

Lan Zhi watched quietly. The girl spat out several mouthfuls of water, panting desperately, and finally regained her senses. She shrank naked into the corner of the bath and asked tiredly, "Why haven't you left yet?" Do you really want me to serve you? โ€

Lan Zhi ignored her nonsense and said directly: "Do you know that the jade dirchey is a chronic โ–กโ–ก, and it will be addictive if you use it too much." โ€

The girl didn't answer, apparently knowing about it. Lan Zhi's tone was almost commanding: "Quit it." โ€

The girl put her hands in her wet hair and did not speak for a long time. Xu is full of steam, so that this child, who should be living comfortably under the protection of his parents, looks a little mature and decadent. Her voice was rigid: "How do you quit?" I would have nightmares. Even when I woke up and found myself in this kind of place, I felt that I couldn't live. โ€

Lan Zhi was speechless. The girl lowered her head slightly, her face was dead, and she said slowly: "Maybe that day, I should let you kill me." โ€

For a while, all I could hear in the room was the sound of gurgling water. For a long time, Lan Zhi broke the silence. She spoke, but still only three words: "Quit it." โ€

This sentence was unexpectedly firm, and the girl stopped speaking. Lan Zhi suddenly walked to the girl's side and sat down cross-legged on the shore of the bath near her: "There was a time when I also used jade dirche. โ€

The girl finally looked up and looked at Lan Zhi in slight surprise. Lan Zhi stared at the swaying water waves in the bath and said in a low voice, "After losing my family, I met a young son. He was from the Central Plains and treated me very well, but many of his friends could not tolerate me. There's a guy who's been following

Speaking of this, Lan Zhi seemed to fall into a memory, and her voice became deeper and lower: "The doctor said that this thing is a rare medicine, and Xiao Gongzi often takes it. And I have indeed seen Xiao Gongzi take it, so I am convinced. I smoked incense every night according to the doctor's prescription for more than a month. During this period, I really had a good night's sleep, but my body gradually deteriorated, and Xiao Gongzi realized that something was wrong. โ€

"He used to be gentle with me, but that time he was not negotiable and forced me to quit, and sent someone to take all my jade pills and lock me up in the house. I actually knew in my heart that he was doing it for my good, but when the addiction came up, I couldn't control it, scolded him fiercely, threatened to kill him, and asked why he could take it. And he let me beat and scold, and repulsed all the men who came to protect him, and left all his affairs behind, and stayed alone with me in the room. โ€

"I really almost killed him...... I don't know why he had such confidence in me, but if that cut deeper, it could kill him on the spot. He was suffering from a strange disease, and the pain in the cracks of his bones every night was unbearable, and the chalcedony could suppress his pain, but because of the angry words I said when I lost my mind, he never used the chrysalcedony again. โ€

"He spent the most difficult half a month with me. When the addiction came up, I shrunk under the quilt and shivered uncomfortably, so he wrapped his arms around the quilt and sang low for me. Speaking of this, Lan Zhi paused for a long time and sang softly: "In March twilight, the flowers fall more affectionately." People go to the swing to hang the moon, and the horses stop the willows and neigh. โ€

Her low voice echoed in the empty bathroom, looking a little vicissitudes, but extremely warm. At the end of the song, Lan Zhi raised her hand and touched the girl's soaked black hair, as if she had asked if she wanted to kill her, and said softly: "I can't hold you and sing for you every night, but tonight, it's okay." โ€

The girl looked at her in a daze, and there was love flashing in her eyes. She seemed to want to put on a disgusted or mocking expression, but after trying hard for a long time, she finally buried her head in Lan Zhi's lap and cried bitterly.

Early in the morning of this day, Lan Zhi left Xinfeng Courtyard at 6 o'clock. She and Duan Ling met at Huweiwei half an hour later, but her clothes were dirty, so she wanted to rush back to the dormitory to change into new clothes first. Unexpectedly, when she returned to the women's barracks, she saw Duan Ling waiting in front of her door.

Seeing this scene a few times, Lan Zhi was no longer surprised, but reluctantly stepped forward. Seeing that no one was paying attention, she said in a low voice: "Brother, it's so early in the morning, why did you go out of your way again." โ€

Duan Ling smiled slightly: "You and Du Lianxue are going to fly together, can I not chase after you?" โ€

Du Lianxue is yesterday's girl. Lan Zhi was slightly embarrassed, knowing that her actions last night must have reached Duan Ling's ears. Even the girl's name was found out, and it must have taken a lot of thought. She didn't know if Duan Ling believed that she liked women, so she asked tentatively, "Brother doesn't seem surprised?" โ€

Duan Ling hooked the corners of his mouth: "I'm surprised." He paused for a moment and saw Lan Zhi's puzzled eyes, then continued: "I'm surprised that you would act in public in order to dissociate yourself from me, pretending to be drunk, and saying that you like women. He glanced at Lan Zhi and said meaningfully: "With such a calculation, Ah Zhimo doesn't want to do something bad to break the sky?" โ€

was seen through. Lan Zhi coughed lightly: "Brother thinks too much." "Go to the door. Duan Ling didn't entangle, Pian Pian followed, but he took out a cloth tiger from his sleeve and handed it to Lan Zhi: "New Year's gift." โ€

With the gentle shaking of Duan Ling's wrist, the little tiger shook his head in front of Lan Zhi. Lan Zhi blinked, took it curiously, and looked at it over and over again. To her surprise, this tiger is not much different from the toys of ordinary children, and even the fabric is still old, and it looks very old. The corners of her mouth curled slightly, she put the tiger in her sleeve, and said, "Thank you brother for bothering." I didn't even have a gift for you. But I secretly thought in my heart: Give me this kind of child's little things, does my brother still treat me as a child?

Although she thought so, Lan Zhi still felt in a good mood. She took out the key to open the door, but heard Duan Ling say, "It's okay, this is not something I specially prepared." After that oath 16 years ago, didn't I find someone to bully you with? Speaking of which, I was used to being lawless at that time, but when I returned home that time, I couldn't let go of anything in my heart, so I went to the street to buy some gadgets, and planned to find an opportunity to give them to you. When my family saw me and asked me, I replied confidently that I had flattered King Nalan since I was a child, and I would definitely get twice the result with half the effort when I grew up in the future. โ€

Lan Zhi's movements paused, and she turned her head to look at Duan Ling. Duan Ling stood beside her, and when he saw her, he smiled: "It's a pity that I haven't found a chance since then." I'm just giving it to you now, I'm afraid it's too late. โ€

For no reason, Lan Zhi suddenly felt that Duan Ling was very gentle like this. She was embarrassed to say the inexplicable feelings in her heart, but she blushed slightly. She lowered her head and pushed the door open, but her expression changed.

Duan Ling immediately sensed that something was wrong. The two of them walked into the house, and Duan Ling asked, "What's wrong?" โ€

Lan Zhi was silent, squatted down behind the door, looked carefully at the crack in the door, stood up after a while, and said to Duan Ling: "Last night...... Someone came into my house. โ€

Duan Ling saw that she had two more strands of hair in her hand, and he knew it in his heart. Obviously, Lan Zhi is very vigilant, and every time she goes out, she will tie a hair on the door. Now that her hair is broken, it means that someone has sneaked in while she was away.

Duan Ling frowned: "Although it is a big year, Huweiwei's defense is not loose, and he should be from the military camp." โ€

Lan Zhi nodded: "Perhaps...... It's the guy who stalked me last night. โ€

Duan Ling's expression changed slightly: "You were still being followed last night?" โ€

Lan Zhi hurriedly said: "It's okay, I found out when she came out of the barracks, and she didn't hear any secrets from me." โ€

Duan Ling's face sank: "You are all targeted by the people around you, is this still called 'nothing'?" โ€

In the face of such Duan Ling, Lan Zhi felt a little weak. She knew that she had been emotional before, and she had caused trouble by killing Nakahara Xizuo, but she couldn't say anything, so she had to walk away a few steps and look around the room.

She stopped at the coffee table and picked up the teapot on it. The patterns of the lid and body of the pot are complicated, but Lan Zhi remembers that when she went out, the lid of the teapot and the body of the teapot did not correspond like this, and someone had touched it. She plucked the silver hairpin, inserted it into the teapot of water, and took it out a moment later, and saw that the silver hairpin was blackened.

Duan Ling had been watching from the sidelines, and his face was already gloomy at this time. He remembered that the last time he followed Lan Zhi, he had seen two female soldiers, and he thought they were sent by Si Yang. And Si Yang's good friend Yuan Qiaoqiao is good at using poison......

Duan Ling opened his mouth and said, "You offended Yuan Qiaoqiao? Or did you offend Si Yang? โ€

Lan Zhi knew that Si Yang was suspicious of her. It's just Yuan Qiaoqiao...... She shook her head: "I don't remember offending Yuan Qiaoqiao, Si Yang...... This person has a calm and cautious personality, and he shouldn't poison me for no reason. โ€

Duan Ling snorted coldly: "Is it these two people who hurt you, you will know if you try." He lifted the hem of his clothes, sat down at the table, forcibly suppressed the chill in his eyes, and said to Lan Zhi: "You go next door and send the two of them to see me." โ€
