Chapter 10 The Crisis of Civil Strife

The apricot smoke smiles with her lips and teeth, and the pear nest on her cheeks is also very cute.

"Brother Chicken......"

Ji Fuyu's face does not change color, and he is calm.

Apricot Smoke followed Ji Fuyu's side, watched him select medicinal herbs, and took out a pen and paper to write them down one by one.

"This is basil, which has the effect of invigorating blood and detoxifying, you should remember it."

Apricot Smoke took the herb called basil, carefully traced its appearance, and wrote the effect underneath.

"This verdant herb is called black fern, and it has a lot of benefits, so it needs to be remembered."

Xing Ziyan nodded, listened carefully to Ji Fuyu's slow words, and then took the pen to write.

After a long time, the sun faded away.

The herbs were almost picked, and Ji Fuyu stopped talking.

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on his handsome face, which was very charming, and even the white clothes added a bit of color, which made people's hearts warm.

"How do you remember?"

Ji Fuyu took the notebook and flipped it slowly, and the knuckled fingers made people unable to take their eyes off.

He looked sideways slightly, his eyelashes dyed with the color of the sun, covering his watery eyes, oozing boundless tenderness.

"Generally speaking, there are no problems."

Apricot Smoke took the notebook back and put it in his arms.

"Ji Fuyu can't see that you still understand herbal medicine."

……

"Naturally, there must be an antidote to the production of drugs."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

This man is very good at making drugs, and he is really terrifying.

Ji Fuyu smiled lightly, seeing that the twilight on the horizon was approaching and the mountain rain was coming, he said softly

"It's time to go back."

The light rain flew obliquely, and the two of them walked quickly in the mud, and after a while, they arrived at the place of the carriage.

When I got home, it was late at night.

Apricot Smoke lay on the bed, exhausted, and fell into a deep sleep.

…………

And at this moment, the darkroom in the house, the candlelight is dim.

Ji Fuyu was dressed in green clothes like an immortal, and he saw him holding a cup and wanting to drink.

"Black rider, has there been any movement in the household department recently?"

"Tell the lord that Guo Mingyi, the head of the household department, was seriously ill when he returned from the dynasty this morning, and the affairs on his hands were temporarily taken over by his son Guo He."

The Black Rider bent down and bowed, his eyes lowered, not daring to look up at the man in front of him.

Ji Fuyu's dark eyes glanced at the tea in the cup, paused for a moment, and Heshen, who was standing on the side of the room, raised his eyes and stared at the teacup, his eyes gloomy.

Ji Fuyu looked calm and drank it all.

"Guo Mingyi is a rare loyal minister in the court, and now that he is seriously ill, it is beneficial to me."

The Black Rider immediately understood.

"But the Lord wants me to get rid of him?"

Ji Fuyu put down the teacup and smiled.

"Why don't you borrow a knife to kill people, so as to subdue Guo He and control the household department?"

Sweat broke out on the forehead of the black horseman, and the person in front of him was thoughtful, although he seemed to be gentle, but in fact he had a murderous intention.

"My subordinates understand."

The black rider understood what Ji Fuyu meant, so he hurriedly ran errands.

The red kite saw that the tea was cold and wanted to take the teapot away.

Ji Fuyu got up and stood up, but unexpectedly his body was unstable, his eyes were dizzy, he suddenly coughed twice, and blood flowed from the corners of his mouth.

"Lord!!"

The red kite immediately held Ji Fuyu, and his tone was eager and panicked.

He Shen stepped forward slowly, sword in hand, and his eyes were full of greed and joy after success.

"Ji Fuyu, it turns out that one day, you will die in my hands, I have put the most insidious poison in the world in your tea, this poison is colorless and tasteless, there is the pain of burning the heart and bones, within half an hour, you will die violently."

The red kite was shocked and angry.

"Heshen, you want to rebel?!"

Crane Shen smiled contemptuously.

"So what? Now that the situation has been decided, Red Kite girl, you have to see the situation clearly and plan for the future, not to mention, our Lord is a vicious person, if you don't rebel, he will become a pawn in vain one day, you and I know too much, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be destroyed. ”

The red kite was stunned for half a second, there was a hesitation in his eyes, Ji Fuyu had no joy or sorrow, no mercy and no heart, he was ruthless, never soft-hearted, and he would become a soul under the knife if he couldn't keep it.

Ji Fuyu saw that the person beside him was shaken in his heart and was about to defect.

But his face was still the same, and he was not shocked.

"Ten years ago, your family was ruined and cornered, it was Ji who took you in, He Shen, have you ever believed me in the past ten years?"

He Shen drew his sword and pointed at Ji Fuyu, his face full of mockery.

"What do you have to trust me?! From the very beginning, I wanted to kill you and seize power. ”

Ji Fuyu brushed away the residual blood from the corners of her mouth with her slender fingers, rising and falling indifferently, elegant and soft.

"I didn't want to kill you."

"You knew I was rebellious?"

He Shen knew that this person was ruthless and cold-blooded, if he had known that he had a rebellious heart, he would definitely not let himself survive so far, so Ji Fuyu was lying at the moment.

Ji Fuyu smiled lightly, her eyes cold.

"Changlin."

As soon as Ji Fuyu's words fell, he saw a person flying out of the shadows, with vigorous skills and deep internal strength, this person was Ji Fuyu's secret guard, his right-hand man.

"Abolish his martial arts, pick off his muscles and bones, and throw him to mass graves."

When Changlin heard this, he took his sword and walked towards Heshen.

Crane Shen staggered back a few steps, and suddenly laughed maniacally.

"Ji Fuyu, you have been poisoned, and you are not far from death."

Changlin effortlessly caught Heshen and dragged him out of the door, covered in blood all the way.

The red kite saw that there was no one else in this house, only her and the lord were left, not to mention that the lord was poisoned.

She trembled and took out the dagger from her cuff and suddenly stabbed at Ji Fuyu.

Ji Fuyu coughed weakly twice, and the clear qi between his eyebrows was a little sickly, and he seemed to be weak.

He stroked his hand over his bleeding left chest and smiled gently.

"Red Kite, you stabbed the wrong one."

Ji Fuyu's heart is different from ordinary people, his heart is born on the right side.

Blood splattered on the red kite's face, and her pupils gradually dilated, discolored, and at a loss.

"Thorn... The stab is wrong..."

She staggered back half a step, her whole body trembling with fear, and she looked at her blood-stained palm, her eyes scarlet.

Suddenly, she shook her head as if she was frightened, as if she didn't believe that she had assassinated Ji Fuyu.

"Lordβ€”" The red kite was terrified.

"Do you want to continue?"

Ji Fuyu's tone was calm, and the red kite raised his eyes to look at him, his cold eyes made people sink.

At this moment, the night rain outside the window has not stopped, and a flash of thunder has been split in the dark clouds.

Apricot Smoke was awakened by the thunder, cold sweat was thick on her forehead, she lit the lamp and put on her clothes, picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea.

"Sassy ......"

Outside the house, there was the sound of footsteps and dragging.

Apricot Smoke opened the crack in the door and quietly peeked into the situation outside the house, only to see a man in black dragging a bloodstained person, wading through the wet and cold stagnant water, and walking towards the outside of the house in dark red.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Apricot smoke held her breath, the murder on a rainy night was actually bumped into by her, it seems that this place is also the Longtan Tiger's Den, fighting openly and secretly, and if you are not careful, you will lose your life.

In a house not far away, the candlelight was not extinguished, and there were peach blossoms outside the house, scattered, as if they were shaking down from above.

"Boom~"

Another lightning bolt struck, the peach blossoms on the ground brightened, and the miserable white light swept over a hairpin, and the ink jade was elegant.

"How could Ji Fuyu's hairpin fall to the ground? Is it ......?"

Apricot smoke frowned slightly.

Could it be that something happened to him when he returned home? She stroked the headband around her neck again, and without thinking much she hurried towards the room with her sword in hand.

She picked up the ink hairpin from the peach blossoms on the ground and held it in her arms.

The candlelight in the room was dim, and the air was filled with the drunken fragrance of peach blossoms, but mixed with the smell of blood.

The red kite trembled with her hands, and gradually stretched out the knife in front of Ji Fuyu's chest, she held the handle of the knife tightly with both hands, and suddenly pulled it out.

Ji Fuyu snorted and spit out a mouthful of blood, his starry eyes were threatening, and his eyes were cold.

I saw the red kite holding the knife, ready to attack.

"Ji has always been retributional for doing things, since you treat me like this, I can't keep you ......"

Ji Fuyu held the sleeve arrow hidden in his sleeve, and as long as he pressed the mechanism, the poisoned arrow would kill him with one blow.

"Night to the third watch, the two of you are so close at the moment, the wind and snow, Brother Ji, don't throw the hairpin outside the door, I can't bear it, I don't blame you, it's just that I don't sleep at night and worry about a ......."

Apricot Smoke said these words as gently as possible, and there was imperceptible anger in his tone.

Red Kite and Ji Fuyu were both stunned when they heard this, and then fell into a terrible silence.

"Apricot smoke, what are you doing here?"

The red kite turned sideways slightly, and the candlelight reflected their current situation into the eyes of the apricot smoke.

The corner of the apricot cigarette twitched slightly, Ji Fuyu really had an accident, the red kite's martial arts didn't seem to be weak, if she wanted to save Ji Fuyu, she could only outwit.

"Nothing to hang out."

Apricot Smoke stepped forward and pretended to observe in the house, his eyes full of admiration for the scenery in the house.

"This window is so beautifully carved, this teacup is also a high-grade celadon, and the table next to you is also extremely precious."

Apricot smoke quietly approached the red kite, trying to find an opportunity to start.
