Chapter 54: The First Signs
Hearing this guard say this, Su Xiaojin just felt very strange, she had never thought that people outside the cell, except for her younger brother, would care about her.
"Who sent this?"
She knew that Xiao Qian was naturally worried, but the Su family's current ability could not enter this cell at all, not to mention that without a silver dot, how could the guards be so pleasant.
"The people in the Hou Ye's mansion sent it over, you girl is really a blessing, now that there are people in this field, I'm afraid this cell won't be able to stay for a few days."
The guard sighed and turned away directly, leaving her confused.
"Hou Ye's Mansion...... Tang Muchen? She muttered to herself, then denied her own expectations.
"He's so ruthless, not to mention that he's usually extremely suspicious, he won't think about me when I go to prison, it should be an ancient rumor......"
At this moment, Tang Muchen sneezed heavily in the room, "It's weird, who is muttering to me behind my back......"
The weather was very cold, but the clue of this case was still confusing, Tang Muchen was really a little anxious, and got up early in the morning to go for a walk on the street.
Before he knew it, he came to the vicinity of the Li Doctor's Hospital, and he suddenly had an idea in his heart, maybe some of the connections must be related to this place.
Thinking like this, I don't want to go in without any hesitation.
Li Wanwan was yelling at the medicine boy in the room at this time, when suddenly there was silence in the air, she looked back and found that the man she had been thinking about suddenly appeared in front of her.
"Miss Li has such a big temper, I never thought that you were pretending to be like that." Seeing this scene, the bamboo spirit beside Tang Muchen couldn't help but quip, as soon as these words came out, Li Wanwan suddenly became cramped.
"Guard, where is that? Usually discipline people, after all, you have to deter them, otherwise if something really goes wrong, the gains outweigh the losses, and it's not good for you to generalize like this. ”
Li Wanwan said these words in her mouth, but she was not arrogant or impatient.
She looked at Tang Muchen's cold and handsome appearance, her heart was already excited, and she walked towards him without hesitation in a moment.
"What is the reason why Master Hou came to the medical hall today, does his body need other herbs? Wanwan's medical skills are also very good, and she must be much stronger than that Su Xiaojin. ”
Li Wanwan directly recommended herself, eager to stick to Tang Muchen's body, and Zhu Ling hurriedly helped him keep his distance when he saw this.
Tang Muchen waved his hand, "That's it," he turned his head to look at Li Wanwan, "Miss Li, the world is like this, this king just wants to ask, why did you suddenly appear in the palace that day?" ”
Li Wanwan was a little cramped, and the pink bubbles in her eyes burst in an instant, and the purpose of coming with this Hou Ye was to ask the ins and outs of that day.
Her mind was racing, and she just wanted to find a suitable phrase.
"That day, Doctor Lu was in a hurry to the Houfu, and I happened to be wandering around the street, thinking that things were not good, so I wanted to take a look. In fact...... Wanwan has always been very worried about Master Hou, and Su Xiaojin's ill-intentioned mind is naturally not reassuring. ”
After she finished speaking, the stone in her heart slowly fell, this statement was seamless, not only giving others face but also revealing her heart clearly, waiting for Tang Muchen's answer.
"In that case, what did you do with the doctor, did you expect that this king would be poisoned?"
As soon as these words came out, they exploded in Li Wanwan's ears like thunder, she never expected Tang Muchen to be so thoughtful.
"What's that? How could I have expected that Hou Ye would be in danger, if I can guess this ending, how could I let Su Xiaojin lean on your side? It's just that there are too many surprises these days, and Wanwan has no choice, and now she only thinks about taking care of Hou Ye. ”
Although these words were full of love, they couldn't help but give Tang Muchen a little headache.
I can't ask anything here, Li Kaiyuan and Shen are not in the pharmacy, and he is too lazy to tell the woman in front of him, Zhou Xuan, even if he orders Zhu Ling.
"Let's go home."
Li Wanwan couldn't help but feel a little helpless as she watched her sweetheart leave, but the other party's forces were really strong, and she didn't dare to be as arrogant as usual, so she could only watch Tang Muchen leave with affection.
"Master Hou, why do your subordinates think that what Miss Li said doesn't seem to be so simple?"
"That's right, if you think about it, it looks like a plan. It doesn't matter, if you pay more attention to the details, this king has some clues. ”
And at this time, some clues were also found in the ancient rumors.
That is, the housekeeper has not purchased medicinal materials from outside recently, as we all know, all the medicinal materials used by Tang Muchen are from Su Xiaojin's medicine field, and since the destruction of the medicine field that day, no other medicines have been arranged, so the source of the medicinal materials is suspicious.
I didn't want to let go of the old rumors when I found out the truth, and went directly to the old housekeeper's room.
"Master Butler, I just want to ask you clearly, where does Master Hou's medicinal materials come from?"
"This ......" The housekeeper never thought that he would find out about himself, but now that the Hou Ye ordered a thorough investigation of the matter, he didn't know how to shirk this responsibility.
"It's Li Kaiyuan......" he replied hesitantly.
The ancient rumor couldn't help but be a little puzzled when he heard this, Li Kaiyuan Houfu is not a relative, if you want to climb high, you can pay tribute to some jewelry and other utensils, but you don't receive a penny for sending medicinal materials, and you don't let people know, is this an olive branch thrown or to open the door to enter the Hou Mansion?
Although I don't know what to do now, I have a general context.
"Butler, have you worked hard for half your life and still don't know the rules of the Houfu? Hou Ye has always put an end to outsiders giving us small favors, and taking people short, what will happen if this matter is spread! If the prince knows about this, I am afraid that you will be severely punished. ”
The housekeeper was a little flustered, "Li Kaiyuan's daughter has always admired our Hou Ye very much, but the door is not right, Li Kaiyuan is really anxious, maybe this is just a moment of confusion, I do covet a small bargain for a while, but I have no ill intentions towards Hou Ye!" ”
…………
Although it was extremely cold, with this cloak to help Su Xiaojin survive the crisis of being frozen to death.
She drooped her head in a daze, her eyes falling on the clothes on her body.
The embroidery on the cloak is extremely delicate, not only the double-sided embroidery is not cotton, but the fine down of birds.
A piece of silver is worth a hundred taels of silver, although the ancient rumor is a person in the Hou Mansion, but after all, he is a maid, how can he have such a precious thing for himself? I couldn't help but have doubts from my heart, but suddenly I knew something in my heart.
This cloak may have been sent by Tang Muchen!
