Hua Xiangrong paused.

Xiao Zirang turned around and looked at her, she lowered her head and thought about something, without saying a word.

He asked, "Am I not right?" ”

Hua Xiangrong raised his eyes to look at him and said, "No, it's just too right." ”

Xiao Zirang chuckled and said, "The way you look at me now is exactly the same as the way you looked at me when I first saw you at Weifeng Pass." ”

Full of suspicion and inquiry, as well as distrust.

When Xiao Zirang said this to her, he was also indirectly asking her, are you doubting me again?

Hua Xiangrong retracted his eyes and said, "Xiao Shaoxia smiled, I don't mean anything else." ”

It's a word to avoid him.

And perfunctory.

Xiao Zirang didn't care much, and asked her instead: "You can stay here and see the progress of the case, or you can find a carriage in the afternoon and go to Zhongshan." You can't ride a horse, and it will take you two days at the earliest.

"You arrived in Zhongshan two days later, and there may be three hours before the text becomes poisonous."

Xiao Zirang's tone was light and unwavering, as if he was stating a fact.

Hua Xiang clenched her hand suddenly.

Then she let go, walked forward quickly, and said, "I'll go to Zhongshan at noon today, what about you?" ”

She didn't look at Xiao Zirang, but asked him what he said.

Xiao Zirang thought for a moment and replied to her: "I still need to stay for two days." ”

Hua Xiangrong can't influence his decision, after all, they are not friends, but they have known each other for more than half a month.

She only thought about how to save Wen Yan and how to get the antidote.

She thought that the two-day journey from Tonglin Town to Zhongshan was really too far.

She was afraid that she would rush over in two days, but she would just see Wen gradually for the last time.

But she didn't have anything to do.

There was nothing she could do.

It was another half an hour back to Tonglin, and the government had already sent someone down to investigate the matter.

According to Wen Gradually, he found the old man and interrogated him, and then asked who the person who boiled the lotus root soup was, but he didn't ask for a result until Hua Xiangrong prepared the carriage.

When she was leaving, Xiao Zirang came to see her off and told her that the old man was dead.

It was self-inflicted.

Her heart was half cold again.

She didn't say anything, turned to the carriage.

She's going to be gone for two days, and she can't be delayed for a moment.

It's night, Tonglin Town, Yuexia Inn.

Xiao Zirang sat at the table, boiled water, and made tea.

A woman's voice came from outside the door, knocking on the door and saying, "Childe." ”

Xiao Zi said, "Come in." ”

The door was pushed open, promised to come in, and closed again.

Xiao Zirang fiddled with the tea set and asked, "Did you find it?" ”

Xu Yu replied: "Hui Gongzi, it's Wu Yuesong." ”

Xiao Zi let the hand of making tea pause.

He smiled sarcastically, continued to make tea, and said, "Interesting." ”

Then he put down the teapot and said, "Does he know that I am the one I saved from under the Mingyue Sect?" ”

Promises are silent.

Xiao Zirang picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said with a smile: "He must know." ”

Xu promised to reply: "I should know, with the lotus banquet in Lin Town, he should also know that the son is there." ”

Xiao Zirang narrowed his eyes: "That means that he wants to kill Hua Xiangrong, and he doesn't care about my life or death?" Knowing that I am still daring to poison, is he betting that I don't know this heart-eroding grass? ”

Xu promised to lower his eyes and said: "Wu Yuesong is such a person, in order to achieve the goal, he will do whatever it takes. ”

Xiao Zirang seemed to have found something more interesting, put down the teacup, laughed, and said, "You never judge the rights and wrongs of others, what's the matter, this Wu Yuesong provoked you?" ”

Xu Yu was stunned for a moment, knelt down on one knee and bowed, and said, "Childe forgives sins." ”

Xiao Zirang stopped smiling, and asked her instead, "How is Hua Xiangrong's identity checked?" ”

Xu Promise's heart tightened, and he bowed his head and said: "Hui Gongzi, Xu Promise has been investigating the poisoning of the Lotus Banquet all day long, so for the time being, I haven't started to investigate her life history." ”

"Promise," Xiao Zirang chuckled and said, "Are you too late to investigate, or, out of selfishness, don't want to investigate?" ”

Promise to close your eyes.

Finally, she opened her eyes again and said, "I don't dare to promise." ”

"It's best not to dare," Xiao Zirang said to her without a smile on his face, and his voice couldn't hear any emotion, "You just said that you won't delay your business because of personal matters." ”

The promise said: "The promise will naturally be remembered, and it will never be forgotten." ”

Xiao Zirang touched the jade spike on his waist and lowered his head to think about something.

After a while, he said: "Hua Xiangrong's background doesn't need to be checked, I already know who she is." ”

Hearing this, Xu Promise raised his head and blurted out, "Does Childe already know?" ”

As soon as she said this, she regretted it.

She lowered her head, not daring to look at him again.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Zirang laughed and said, "I said I knew, then I naturally knew." You didn't check when I asked you to check, what, do you want to know? Do you want me to tell you? ”

The palms of the promise were sweaty, but there was no difference on his face, and he said: "If you don't dare to promise, the son will forgive you." ”

Xiao Zirang didn't answer her, took out the teapot that had just made tea, took out the tea chopsticks, put the tea leaves back that had been clipped, shook the teapot, the tea leaves scattered, and the clean tea was instantly turbid.

He said to the people on the ground: "Get up and look." ”

Hearing this, Xu Promise stood up and looked at the pot in his hand.

Xiao Zi said: "The residue has been taken away, without the residue, the tea will be clear, and when you take it back, the tea will be turbid." If you don't shake the tea, the residue will sink to the bottom, and the tea will be clear, but if you shake it slightly, the tea will be turbid again.

"No one likes to drink turbid tea, if it is turbid, it is wasted, useless, and can be discarded."

Promise to bow your head.

Then, her voice was still cold, and she said, "I promise to know, thank you for your advice." ”

Xiao Zirang said with a smile: "Promise has always been smart, so I naturally understand what I'm talking about." ”

Tea is a metaphor for the heart, which can be clear and clear. If you can't calm down, you will be turbid, your heart will be turbid, and your heart will be wasted, and your waste can be discarded.

Either remove the foreign object, or distract from it.

This is a warning to her.

When Xu Promise heard this, he smiled bitterly in his heart, thinking, I have followed Childe for eight years, how could I not know the meaning of Childe's words.

She bowed her head and saluted, returned to what she had said at the beginning, and asked, "Childe, how to deal with Wu Yuesong now?" ”

Xiao Zirang sneered and said, "You tell him that I want the antidote to this heart-eroding grass in two days, and if he doesn't give it, I will personally go and get his head." ”
