Without the attention of the elders and the follow-up of the palace maids, the two of them stood at the end of the corridor in the cool breeze, and their hearts were much clearer.

Meng Xilan looked around and felt that this was a good place to talk.

Zhu Lu and Zhu Qing were watching not far away, and naturally they would not let others approach at will, and they would hear something in their ears.

Chu Jingwen didn't speak, only followed Meng Xilan, she took her and left, and she stopped when she took her.

Meng Xilan groaned slightly: "Jingwen, are you okay?" ”

After thinking about it again and again, she couldn't think of the words to ask her, even if she asked knowingly, she still chose this sentence to begin.

"Hmm." Chu Jingwen replied softly.

Meng Xilan reached out and lifted her cuffs, and when she saw that she was still wrapped in a medicine cloth around her wrist, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

"Jingwen, stop hurting yourself. After you enter the palace, you still have me. ”

She couldn't think of any words of comfort, but she felt that this one was the most useful.

No matter what, they can still have the opportunity to help each other together, even if they can't live together, at least when something happens, there can be someone by her side who can be discussed.

"Lan'er, I won't do anything stupid." Chu Jingwen's eyes were far away, and he said in a calm tone: "Since I promised my mother to live well, I will definitely do it." ”

She originally wanted to die, but her mother's words convinced her. If she dies, she will not obey the will, and the Chu family will also suffer, and everyone will not have a good life. As long as she sacrifices herself, everything will be fine, and as long as she endures it, the family will live better.

Chu Jingwen slowly turned around and showed a bitter smile to Meng Xilan: "Lan'er, I was really stupid that day, and I hurt you." Brother, he cares about you so much, how distressed he should be when he sees you hurt. Actually, this is obviously a good thing...... Crown Princess, such a noble status, isn't it what many people dream of all their lives? It's just me, I don't know how to cherish ......" As she spoke, she suddenly couldn't speak, raised her head, and held back the tears in her eyes.

"Don't force yourself to say this, I know you feel wronged. But maybe...... Nothing is as bad as imagined. Meng Xilan felt that she was so helpless. Jingwen, you and me, I can face it with you. ”

Chu Jingwen's eyes flashed with emotion, and she held her hand back: "Thank you, Lan'er." yes, I still have you as a friend, my best friend. ”

The two immediately looked at each other and smiled, slowly calming down.

As everyone knows, outside the long pavilion in the distance, someone is looking at her back and smiling meaningfully.

Zhou Shili's thin lips pursed slightly. He couldn't hear what they were saying at all, but he kept paying attention to their every move, especially Meng Xilan. For some reason, every time he saw her, he couldn't take his eyes off it......

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a deep dissatisfaction with himself: It's not a hairy child who has never seen a woman, why do you stare at people so sneakily? The big thing is still done, but I think about the woman first, confused! Zhou Shili, Zhou Shili, when you sit on the supreme throne, you can have everything you want, anything and everything.

…

At the end of the twilight, Jiao Changqing came to Cining Palace again under the pretext of examining Meng Xilan's wounds.

The scar on Meng Xilan's palm has grown, and the originally slender horizontal lines have been forcibly divided into two sections, which seems to bring some bad meanings.

Jiao Changqing put down the medicine box and took out the homemade ointment: "This is a secret medicine handed down from the ancestors in the next family, please try it." ”

Meng Xilan gave Zhu Lu a look, asked her to put away the ointment, and asked lightly, "My lord, is this time here to bring me medicine?" Let's have something to say. ”

It's such a trivial matter, and he can't afford to come and run it in person.

Jiao Changqing's eyes were clear, and he said bluntly: "Forgive me for daring to ask, what are the festivals between the girl and His Royal Highness the county lord?" He knew he shouldn't have asked, but he had to.

Before coming over today, Jiao Changqing's mood was slightly entangled, he entered the palace on an errand to inherit his father's life, as for other things, he should not have listened or watched, no matter what he asked...... But he couldn't sit idly by and watch this matter.

Meng Xilan glanced at Jiao Changqing and said lightly: "It's okay." ”

Jiao Changqing pursed his lips meaningfully, the lines of his cheeks tightened slightly, and his expression instantly became serious. "Then I have to remind the girl to take care of yourself, I'm afraid your life will be in danger."

Meng Xilan's hand holding the Jinpa tightened slightly. "Looks like you've figured out what it was last time?"

Jiao Changqing's eyebrows frowned slightly: "Yes." It is a synthetic light spice, although it looks colorless and odorless, but it is actually toxic, and once it is burned, the fragrance overflows, and the toxicity in it will volatilize and spread. ”

Zhu Qing beside him was so frightened that his hand shook, and the tea bowl that was about to be delivered fell to the ground with a bang.

"I'm sorry......" She squatted down in a panic to clean up the mess, so frightened that she didn't listen to her call.

Meng Xilan's expression didn't move at all, and she couldn't see any changes.

Her overly "calm" or bland reaction made Jiao Changqing feel surprised and puzzled.

What he just said was not an innocuous triviality, but a matter of life and death.

Jiao Changqing stared at Meng Xilan a few times in surprise, "Girl, don't be careless, let's protect yourself like a foolproof strategy." ”

It's her luck to be able to escape this time, if there is a next time...... The consequences are unimaginable.

Meng Xilan stared at him: "To be honest, what I want to know more now is, how poisonous is that poison?" What's in it? ”

At this moment, her curiosity outweighed her fear. Because, she wants to know how much effort Zhou Lier has put into harming her, and how sure she can cover up the evidence.

Jiao Changqing was slightly stunned when he heard this, and his slender eyebrows frowned into the word "Sichuan".

This was only the third time he had seen Meng Xilan, but he had been completely confused by her.

Who the hell is she? Is it too stupid and naïve? Or is it too arrogant? Why can't I see the word "afraid" on her face?

After not getting a response for a long time, Meng Xilan raised her eyes and looked at Jiao Changqing in front of her, with a face like an ice cube, her eyes were full of doubts, entanglements and doubts, and she smiled slightly: "I don't know medical science, and I hope that the adults will give me some advice." If the poison did get into the stove that day, how would I react? ”

Jiao Changqing replied in a calm voice: "This poison contains Bali hemp, musk, poinsettia, poison ivy flowers and succulent ginseng, all of which are poisonous. Their toxicity complements each other, can be dissolved in water, but can also be emitted in the air, once invaded the body, it will not be fatal in a short time, but the body will change accordingly, limbs weak, tired and emaciated, unresponsive, diarrhea and vomiting, indigestion, and finally toxic erosion of the five organs, it will be a life. ”
