Chapter Forty-Nine: Poison in the Body
Shangguan Yinling lowered his eyes slightly, there was indeed a black spot three inches below the root of Lu Li's ear, he frowned slightly, and turned his head to look at the steward.
"This poison Zhou divine doctor may be cured?"
"What did the adults say about Zhou Zheng's divine doctor? The miracle doctor has excellent medical skills, so you may want to give it a try. The steward said, but sighed, "But it's only five days, even if it's Doctor Zhou, I'm afraid it will be difficult to develop an antidote in such a short time." ”
"I responded to the state to invite Senior Zhou, before I come back, don't act rashly." Shangguan Yinling turned to face Lu Li, Lu Li looked up at him, his expression was firm, "If five days pass for me, you will discuss with Duan Lang Xu Yun and pretend to agree to Jingxiao, but you have to fast for three days, he will not be willing to let you die in vain, and will give you a part of the poison first, then you can wait for me to come back with peace of mind, remember, don't make a hasty decision, let alone easily entrust yourself to this kind of person because of the threat of such a villain." ”
He put his hand on her shoulder, and the heat in his palm was slowly passed to her, Lu Li raised his eyes to look at him and nodded firmly.
"My lord, I will definitely wait for you to come back."
Shangguan Yinling nodded, and then went to the stable to lead the horse, traveled thousands of miles every day, and soon left Qizhou City.
Liang Song finished buying hibiscus cakes on the street and returned to the post station, Shangguan Yinling was no longer in the post station.
After Xu Yun and Duan Lang woke up, they found a lively welcoming team parked outside the door of the post station, and they were curious about how the team could guard outside the post station if they didn't go to greet their relatives, and when they went downstairs, they saw a room full of dowry gifts.
Lu Li and Liang Song were sitting at the table with a headache, and the two of them sighed in line.
"What's the matter? Who wants to get married? The two sat down at the table, poured themselves a cup of tea, and drank it all.
"Sister Lu wants to get married." Liang Song said, the two of them were fighting, and they were almost choked to death by the water, "It's just forced." ”
After listening to the cause and effect, the two sighed.
"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect that you girl is usually rough, it's rare to restore your identity as a daughter, and you have caused such a big peach blossom debt." Duan Lang couldn't help but worry, "This Jingxiao is not a good stubble, the things he is eyeing are rarely missed." ”
Duan Lang also traveled to the north and south of the river in his early years, and also stayed in Qizhou for two years, those two years were the time of turmoil in Qizhou, the old patriarch of the Mengqi clan died, and several of his sons competed for the position of patriarch, and several brothers did not fight for the youngest Jing Xiao, and the last few brothers died of the crippled, or they became wasted people who could not do anything, Jing Xiao should have become the patriarch, and inherited the position of the prefect, and in recent years, he has also governed Qizhou rich and prosperous.
This shows that he is indeed capable of something.
The Mengqi people are a side lineage, more than 100 years ago when Qizhou was not founded, they lived in the deep mountains and dense forests, and they had a lot of research on poisonous insects and poisonous weeds.
It is expected that he can become the patriarch, and he is inseparable from these poisonous insects and poisonous weeds.
This time Lu Li is really dangerous.
When the sun set, the black spot on Lu Li's neck had spread into a small black line, Lu Li looked at the bronze mirror, and saw it slowly growing towards the root of his ear, and couldn't help but sigh deeply.
It's too difficult, she just wants to be promoted and make a fortune, find relatives, and have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life, why did she encounter this kind of thing?
As the night deepened, the people who had already left the city stopped in an alley in the city.
Shangguan Yinling walked out of the alley, and directly opposite was Jingxiao's mansion.
Originally, the Mengqi people did not live in the city, and it was only after Daliang set up the state and county mansions that the patriarch moved into the mansion arranged by the imperial court as the prefect.
Jingfu was not very big, and he jumped in from outside the courtyard wall, but the courtyard was full of all kinds of plants, and he walked through it, and before he knew it, he lost his way.
Thanks to the attendants on the night patrol who led the way, he followed the direction of the guards' procession and successfully walked out of the labyrinth.
He followed behind the squire, grabbed a man by the neck, and dragged him into the shadows.
"Where is Jing Xiao's alchemy?"
"In, in the southeast corner!"
At the critical moment, his life was at stake, and the man told him the location of Jing Xiao's refining pharmacy without reservation, and in addition, he also took the initiative to say that some of the medicine carefully refined by Jing Xiao would be placed in the bedroom.
Shangguan Yinling slashed him with a sharp palm, and then put on the clothes of the attendant patrol, quickly followed the patrol team in front, followed them around the courtyard, and generally knew the distribution of the houses in the courtyard.
Jing Xiao's bedroom was not easy to sneak into, so Jiang Feng stopped and went to the refining pharmacy first.
The door in the alchemy room is very high, he took the **** that Lu Li quietly handed him in the afternoon, opened the lock of the alchemy room, pushed the door in, and there was a considerable space for alchemy, and there were several very large wooden tables in the innermost, on the wooden table were potions of various colors, behind the table were rows of shelves, on which were placed various books on alchemy, in front of the table, there was a row of cabinets, and the cabinets were labeled on them, which were all poisons and antidotes refined by Jing Xiao.
He searched for a long time in front of the cupboard, and at noon in an inconspicuous corner, he found a poison called Gorisan.
Next to the poison was the antidote, and he paused slightly, opened the poison bottle, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it.
After a while, he picked up the bronze mirror next to him and took a photo, and sure enough, a black dot appeared on the side of his neck.
He opened the antidote bottle, and it was the antidote inside.
He took an antidote first, waited for a while, the black spot on the side of his neck really disappeared, he lucked his luck, and felt that there was no discomfort, so he left the alchemy pharmacy with the antidote.
"Lord Shangguan really values love and righteousness." Outside the door, Jing Xiao clapped and approached, Shangguan Yinling saw him standing outside the door, with many guards standing beside him, and knew that he had been fooled today.
He frowned slightly, but did not respond, but Jing Xiao smiled.
"My lord is well-planned, pretending to be in response to the state to let me let down my guard, sneak back at night to steal the antidote, and do my best for Miss Lu, but how can I be defenseless, otherwise I would not have survived to this position." Jing Xiao pointed to the antidote in Shangguan Yuling's hand, "This antidote is indeed true, but it is not the amount of two people, I know that the adults will test the poison for the safety of Lu Li, so only one person's antidote is left, and now the medicine in the bottle can only save one of the two of you, depending on how the adults choose." ”
Jing Xiao smiled, didn't do much to stop it, and led people out of the courtyard, Shangguan Yinling looked at the antidote in his hand, his hand clenched the bottle slightly, without hesitation, got up and went over the wall to leave the hospital, and returned to the post station.
At this time, a few people at the post station were still worried in the front hall, and the four of them sat around the table and sighed vigorously.
"Why don't we break into Jingfu at night and steal the antidote!" Duan Lang slapped the table violently, and was about to get up, but the door of the post station was suddenly pushed open.
Facing the hazy moonlight, I saw a handsome figure standing in front of the door.
