Chapter 385: Burns
In the evening, Xie Jingchen returned from the Criminal Department.
Just like the previous two days, I came with a dark guard and a food box.
Although the old lady said that she would not take it as an example, Xie Jingchen did not take it to heart.
He still came to the Buddha Hall to eat with Su Jin, the old lady knew, and she didn't say anything, but everyone in the house was saying that the relationship between the eldest young master and the eldest young grandmother was very good, and the eldest and young grandmother was punished in the Buddhist hall for reflection, and the eldest young master tried to accompany him as much as possible.
The eldest young master is helping in the criminal department, and he only has time at night, if he is not in the criminal department, will he accompany the eldest young grandmother to copy the house rules.
The feelings of the eldest young master for the eldest young grandmother are really: one day is like three autumns.
Apricot took the food box from the dark guard and set the meal in place.
Xie Jingchen came to the table and served Su Jin with vegetables.
Su Jin looked at him.
Xie Jingchen said, "What's wrong?" Dirty on my face? ”
Su Jin took out the purse wrapped in a handkerchief in his arms and put it on the small table.
Xie Jingchen frowned slightly, not understanding what Su Jin meant.
"I found this purse from under the bed," Su Jin said.
Xie Jingchen's ears were slightly red.
He couldn't remember what kind of purse he was wearing yesterday.
Xie Jingchen looked at the purse and said, "I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to sleep last night, so I came to the Buddha Hall to sleep with you." ”
Su Jin, "....... ”
Su Jin was stunned.
She looked directly at Xie Jingchen.
Xie Jingchen picked up the purse and wanted to put it in his arms, but was snatched by Su Jin.
She looked at Xie Jingchen and said, "You slept in the Buddha Hall last night?!" ”
Xie Jingchen's face turned black into the bottom of the pot.
was hugged by her all night, and she didn't even know that he slept in the Buddha Hall.
How did he feel that he had slept in vain this night?
Xie Jingchen said in a sullen voice, "The purse should have been accidentally dropped when I was wearing a wide coat last night." ”
Su Jin is really about to squirt blood.
That's not what she meant when she showed him her purse.
Su Jin pointed to the purse and said, "It's true that this purse is yours, but this purse contains snake attracting powder, which is used by hunters to catch snakes." ”
Xie Jingchen's face changed.
Su Jin supported his forehead, and finally reacted.
He didn't drop this purse.
Someone stole his purse, put snake powder under her bed, and was bitten by a snake when she was playing chess with Zhou Gong at night, and returned to the soul for nine days in a dream, and the purse was found to be his.
Su Jin showed Xie Jingchen the purse, so that he could pay attention to it, there should be snakes in the Buddhist hall at night, and asked him to send someone to keep an eye on it, touch the melon smoothly, find out the person who started it, and give a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye.
Who would have thought?!
He actually took the initiative to take the black pot to himself, and also took the initiative to confess that he slept with her in the Buddhist hall last night.
Su Jin blushed and had a thick neck.
Immerse yourself in rice.
After dinner, Xie Jingchen went back to Agarwood Xuan.
Xing'er looked left and right worriedly, and under her startled search and brain supplement, she felt that the Buddha Hall was full of snakes.
Su Jin shook his head and laughed, this maid was explaining to her what a cup bow snake shadow is.
Since he told Xie Jingchen, he would definitely not let the poisonous snake enter the Buddhist hall.
Tonight, there should be a lot of excitement and voila.
Su Jin has nothing to do to turn over books to pass the time.
The night is dark.
Outside the Buddhist hall, Xie Jingchen and the secret guard hid in a tree, and a man approached the Buddhist hall at night, carrying a bamboo basket in his hand.
Before he could put the snake into the temple, he fainted in the neck.
The secret guard took the people with bamboo baskets, and came back after a while and said, "The eldest young master, it's the person from the county lord of Nanzhang." ”
The corners of Xie Jingchen's mouth hooked up a sneer.
This is to be expected.
He glanced towards the Peony Courtyard, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
Peony Courtyard.
The night is beautiful.
The lord of Nanzhang admired the moonlight in the courtyard.
Mother Zhao took the cloak and said, "County Lord, it's late at night, it's time to rest." ”
The county lord of Nanzhang was also a little sleepy, so she got up and went back to the house.
Zhao's mother served her wide clothes, and as soon as she put the clothes on the hanger next to the bed, she heard an exclamation.
The county lord of Nanzhang saw a snake swimming from the foot of the screen, turquoise, spitting snake letters.
Frightened, her face turned white and her face was pale.
She was about to run, but there was another one over there, and the Nanzhang County Lord's legs were weak, and she retreated again and again.
knocked down the lotus candlestick behind him.
As soon as the candlestick toppled down, the candle rolled down and burned the veil.
Suddenly, the house was ablaze.
The snakes were afraid of life, and this one caught fire, so frightened that they turned around and left.
In front of the snake, no one noticed that it was on fire, and the clothes of the county lord of Nanzhang were burned, and Zhao's mother hurried over to extinguish the fire.
Outside the house, the maids shouted, "It's out of the water, come and put out the fire!" ”
The Buddhist hall is remote, the town and the government are big, and the maid's call can't be heard.
But the firelight could be seen, and Apricot cried, "Girl, come and see, there's a fire over there!" ”
Su Jin put down the book, and when he came out to take a look, he saw the skyrocketing fire.
"It seems that the Peony Courtyard is on fire," Xing'er smiled and couldn't see her teeth.
Schadenfreude shouldn't be.
But the Peony Courtyard is the residence of the lord of Nanzhang, she is unlucky, and Xing'er feels that she is very kind if she doesn't laugh unbridledly.
Looking at the firelight, the corners of Su Jin's mouth hooked up a bright smile.
Xie Jingchen walked over and said, "It's cold outside, why don't you go into the house?" ”
Su Jin asked with his eyes if the fire in the Peony Courtyard was his handiwork.
Xie Jingchen shook his head.
After all, it is not a trivial matter that the Guogong Mansion is on fire, if you don't know, it's just that, if you know, you must go and see it.
Xie Jingchen and Su Jin went towards the Peony Courtyard.
The second master, the second wife, the third master, and the third wife are all there, and the maid is struggling to splash water.
The county lord of Nanzhang is not there.
Su Jindong looked around and didn't find anyone, and asked, "What about Mother, is she okay?" ”
The second wife sighed and said, "The county lord's hand was burned, and her hair was burned a little, and Mother Zhao helped her to Qihe Hall." ”
Still burned?
This was really unexpected by Su Jin.
Since the injury is so serious, it is even more necessary to visit.
Xie Jingchen and Su Jin went to Qihe Hall.
Although it was getting late, the lord of Nanzhang was burned, even if the imperial doctor fell asleep, he had to get up and rush to heal.
Looking at the burned hands of the county lord of Nanzhang, as well as the hair with the smell of burning, it was really distressing.
But except for Su Jin, if she wasn't alert enough, she would have been the one who encountered it like this.
If you don't have the intention of harming others, how can you be counterattacked?
The county lord of Nanzhang looked at Su Jin's eyes cold, and he could freeze to death.
The imperial physician was terrified, and when the lord of Nanzhang asked him if there would be a scar on his hand, the imperial doctor said, "Even if there is a blue mark ointment, it is difficult not to leave a scar." ”
The old lady said, "It's a blessing to survive, how can there be snakes in the house?" ”
"Someone must have hurt me!" The county lord of Nanzhang gritted his teeth and said.
Su Jin nodded, "The person who poisoned him is really bold, we must find out, otherwise we won't dare to sleep at night." ”
Outside, Mr. Li walked in, and the old lady asked him, "Can you find out who put the snake?" ”
Manager Li replied, "By the window behind the county lord's house, I found a small house, he was bitten to death by a poisonous snake, I should have not noticed that he was bitten by a snake when he released the snake." ”
