Chapter Forty-Three: Side-Knocking

In the early morning, rice paper brought breakfast to Yanxin, and Yanxin handed her the note prepared in advance.

Because it is also necessary to find the real culprit who poisoned him, and to understand the danger one step earlier, the banquet can be prepared early, and this time only rice paper is the most suitable thing to do.

She expected that Liu Tang'er's injury should be almost healed at this time, and if Xuan Paper lowered her status to make friends, Liu Tang'er would definitely be unable to ask for it, and she should be able to get some useful news.

On Jing'er's side, Yanxin arranged for her to go to major pharmacies to ask for clues about the nine-leaf clover, maybe she could find some clues from the purchase records, so that she would have enough evidence.

As soon as Xuan Paper heard that Yanxin had doubts, he didn't stay, and packed up some gifts early and went to Liu Tang'er's yard.

With the intelligence of rice paper, Yanxin is not worried.

At this time, my father happened to be returning from a camp outside the city, and when he learned of this, he came around to see her.

Yan thought that not being able to speak was a big problem, and if it reached the ears of the Su family and the others, he didn't know what kind of crooked brains they would have.

Luan'er, who was staring at the movement outside at the door, was also very anxious, and kept asking about the banquet.

"Miss, the master is coming over soon, can't we really say it?"

Luan'er was also a little worried at the moment, after all, she didn't know the real state of getting along with Yanxin and her father, and it was not easy to interfere at will.

Yan Xin nodded affirmatively, after taking the medicine given by Luo Yunxi, she had already improved, and she could almost make "um" and "huh" sounds.

Not only can this not be said, but the signs of poisoning must be deliberately directed in other directions.

Luan'er destroyed all the notes used to deliver the news before, "Don't worry, when the time comes, when the master asks, I will answer for you." ”

Su Shi, who didn't see the state of Yanxin smoothly that time, still didn't give up, and followed Liu Valve into the courtyard with a swagger, probing his brain, for fear of missing any details.

Yan Xin lay on the bed and lowered the curtains, so that the people outside could not see it really.

Liu Valve strode in, looked at the figure on the bed and fell into deep thought, only then did the Su family roughly tell him some information, in recent days, the Liu family has been in turmoil, and the court has spread the news that the prince will come to Lanzhou City to observe clearly, and he really can't take care of it.

"This matter is really strange, there are so many women in Hongwen Garden, why are you the only one who is poisoned, what kind of trouble did you make outside, and who did you offend?"

In the face of his father's groundless accusations, although Yanxin was angry, he couldn't speak, so he could only let it go.

But Luan'er is different, seeing that the old man is angry, she wants to say two fair words to him.

"Master, you misunderstood, Miss never took the initiative to make enemies with others, this time the murderer has not been found, I can't tell if Miss is in trouble, plus so many things have happened recently, there are more than one or two people who regard the Liu family as a thorn in their eyes."

In a word, Liu Valve felt that it did make sense, after all, Zhang Yi, Pingnan Wang, and Zhong Qing were all possible.

"Besides, when I was in Hongwen Garden, the slaves and maids also listened to some rumors, and those noble ladies were discussing the love of the second lady, and even the eldest lady couldn't raise her head......"

Seeing Liu Valve's hesitation, Luan'er continued to sort out the affairs of Hongwen Academy, with the purpose of pointing the finger at Liu Yanxin again.

"Don't talk about it again."

He paused, and was also a little impatient, the matter of Zhong Qing was finally settled last time, but the kid of King Pingnan saw the opportunity to withdraw from the marriage, and let outsiders see the joke twice......

Listening to Bai Luan'er's tone, Yanxin's girl should be fine, so he directly handed it over to the Su family to take care of.

"As long as you don't have to worry about your life, leave the rest to your aunt to deal with, and if there is no major event, don't go out and walk around for the time being, so as not to cause trouble again."

Yan Xin quietly listened to his father's arrangement, and after he finished speaking, he turned around and left, and did not have any other words of condolence, as if although he was in the Liu family, he was an outsider who was not related by blood.

Even the unidentified man cares about him, but his father never has the warmth of a word.

Yan Xin smiled bitterly and shook his head.

But the matter didn't end like this, Liu Valve's arrangement was in the hands of the Su family, she immediately greeted her, looked left and right outside the curtain, and found a reason in the middle of the sound.

"Ouch, Yanxin, I am very distressed that you poisoned my aunt this time, but we are very worried that you avoid seeing us like this, so I have to see you to come down with confidence."

Luan'er naturally couldn't let her succeed, so she deliberately scared her.

"Aunt Su, the doctor told me before, this disease is uncertain, I'm afraid there is a possibility of infection."

When Su Shi heard this, he immediately covered his mouth and nose, and asked Luan'er tremblingly, "It's so serious, I only took a look at it from a distance, it should be fine." ”

Looking at Su's appearance, it doesn't look like she's pretending, it seems that she really doesn't know what kind of poison she has been in, so she is so eager to know the situation.

But the more Yanxin didn't let her see it, the more she wanted to find out.

It's really a woman in the house.

Yan Xin pressed his temples that were faintly painful, lifted the curtain with one hand, and pretended to look at Su Shi weakly.

Without waiting for Su Shi to take a closer look, Yanxin pulled back the curtain and hinted at Luan'er to send off the guests.

"Auntie, I see that you have also seen this, please go back, my young lady has no strength now, and it is difficult to even speak."

Su Shi was suspicious, and walked to the door of the house and turned back reluctantly.

When the time came, Xuan Paper and Jing'er returned home one after another, and the four of them gathered in a circle around the round table in the banquet room, exchanging information about today's information.

Xuan Paper poured himself a glass of water, and it seemed that he had a good chat with Liu Tang'er, otherwise he would not have been grinding to this time.

"I chatted with your second sister for a while today, and she still had scruples about protecting you in front of Aunt Su before, but she was not moved until I said that I had always admired her talent and wanted to take this opportunity to get acquainted."

Luan'er got to the point and couldn't wait to ask.

"Then Miss Xuan has asked about the nine leaf clovers?"

"I gave her the gift and specially instructed that the sachet was made of ground nine-leaf clover into powder, but she was not uncomfortable at all, but came to the front to smell it, and asked me what nine-leaf clover was, and it seemed that she really didn't know."

Speaking of the situation at that time, even Liu Tang'er's subtle facial expressions were described as the head of the Tao, and the banquet combined with his Su Clan's actions today, in case it was really poisoned by one of them, it was impossible for such a big thing to be carried out secretly from the other party.

Since neither mother nor daughter knew about it, the murderer must have someone else.

Seeing that the rice paper was answered, Jing'er took out the notes she made today, which were densely packed, not only recording the name and location of the medicinal herb shop, but also recording some other information.

"Today, the slave maid went to several pharmacies, but the shopkeeper said that there was no such medicinal material, first, because this medicinal material is extremely rare, and second, its effect is too much and there are side effects, in case something goes wrong, it is difficult to solve, so I simply gave up using it."

Luan'er noticed that there were other things on Jing'er's paper, and couldn't help but point to those words and ask questions.

"Then what are you writing about, what Huaiyin Road, Lingxiu Road?"

"This is the location of the pharmacy, if Miss Ning or Miss Second wants to buy poison, they will definitely ask someone to ask, but they will definitely not look for it at the door of the house, they must have sent someone to a distant place."

Hearing this statement, Yan Xin showed an expression of appreciation, although Jing'er usually talks less, she can do things a little bit, and she will draw inferences from Yan Xin after learning some things.

"I asked the shopkeepers if anyone had bought sexual poisons or strange medicinal herbs these days, but for more than a month, only Wang Po had bought arsenic medicine rats, and nothing else."

Jing'er did a good job in this matter, and nodded frequently along with the rice paper.

Judging from these two things, it shouldn't look like Liu Tang'er did it. Then the most likely one now is Ning Shuying......

Not only did the Mid-Autumn Festival save her face, but also the fact that she was embarrassed in front of so many noble ladies in Hongwen Academy, which was indeed enough motivation.

But to verify this, another person is needed to help.

Yan Xin took the pen and ink himself and wrote a letter to Ning Buqu, in which Yan Xin expressed it very tactfully.

Roughly speaking, it means that I hope to be able to go to the house to explore first, first, to understand the situation of Ning Buqu's arrangement, and secondly, to find the location of the sacred tree, so that people can prepare first.

After writing it, she instructed Jing'er to find someone to deliver the letter tomorrow, preferably ordinary people who are not familiar with each other, so as to prevent others from identifying them.
