"Master, Miss is back."

"Xi'er is back?" Zhan Mingxuan, who originally had a sad face, suddenly stood up.

Before the words fell, Zhan Yunxi, who was walking in a hurry, came in.

"Dad, what's wrong with my mother? The words in the letter are unknown, what is going on? As soon as Zhan Yunxifu came in, he hurriedly asked.

Zhan Mingxuan frowned, "Your mother suddenly fainted, she has been asleep for two days, you let Ziyi show her!" ”

When Zhan Yunxi heard this, he also frowned, knowing the seriousness of the matter, he made a look, and directly asked Ziyi to rush over to see it with light skills, and then rush to the backyard with Zhan Mingxuan.

When Zhan Yunxi and the others arrived at the room, Ziyi was already taking Lin Elegy's pulse. Zhan Yunxi looked at Lin Wangge lying on the bed, her face was ruddy, and the corners of her lips were lightly raised, if she hadn't known that she had been like this for two days, Zhan Yunxi would have thought that she was just asleep, and even had a good dream.

"Dad, what the hell is going on?"

Zhan Mingxuan sighed, and was just about to speak, but was interrupted by Mama Zhao.

"Let's let the old slave say it!"

Mama Zhao sighed and slowly recounted the events of three days ago.

It turned out that three days ago, "Mama, Xi'er and Du'er have left, and the house is really deserted!" ”

Mama Zhao walked in with a plate of lotus cakes and quipped: "Madam, now the young master is only leaving the house for a short time, and if the young lady gets married in the future, you should be in a hurry." ”

Lin Elegy also smiled, "Mama, what you say, I want to recruit a husband for Xi'er to come back, so that it is convenient for us to take care of Xi'er, if Xi'er marries, I don't know how many grievances I will have to suffer!" ”

"Madam, your idea is good, but now which family is willing to give the boy to someone else's family, even if there is, I guess you don't like it."

"Eh, forget it, if that's the case, I'll keep my son for a few more years. Let that bastard who dares to kidnap my daughter be in a hurry. Lin Elegy said in a somewhat angry tone.

Mama Zhao smiled, "What Madam said is that our family is such a well-behaved and lovely little master, you can choose the little master." ”

"Fortunately, Xi'er is still young now."

"Madam, don't think too much, children have their own children and grandchildren, if you want me to say, now these years are your most idle years, you might as well take advantage of these years to do more things you like."

Lin Wangge's eyes lit up, "Mama's words are reasonable, let's go, let's go out for a walk today, we haven't seen this Cloud City for so long." ”

Two hours later, Lin Wangge looked at the large and small boxes held by the people around him, and finally decided to leave for home.

Lin Elegy was just about to turn around and leave, when he swept to a group of people bustling together.

"Huh, what's going on?"

Jingyi's face was bitter, but she still followed quickly and protected Lin Elegy's side.

It turned out to be a little girl who was selling herself to bury her father. The little girl looks like she is about ten years old, the whole person is small, she looks thinner than Zhan Yunxi, a delicate goose egg face, a pair of apricot eyes and watery eyes, and a white filial piety dress makes the whole person more pitiful.

"It's good-looking, but it's a pity." Although Lin Elegy is kind-hearted, he is not a stupid and sweet person, even if this little girl seems completely harmless, she will not lead people to the mansion without knowing it.

"Ma'am, let's go."

"Well, Jingyi, you send someone to guard here, if it is evening, and no one has redeemed this little girl, you can ask someone to give her a few taels of silver, help her bury the person, and then let her leave by herself!"

"Yes, ma'am."

No one saw it, and just as Lin Elegy and the others turned to leave, a dim light flashed in the eyes of the little girl with her head down.

At dusk, Lin Wangge was holding a notebook and reading it with great taste, when he was disturbed by the hurried arrival of his subordinates.

"Ma'am, the girl has been brought back."

Lin Wangge frowned, "Didn't I say that let her leave on her own?" ”

Xiao Si, who came to the newspaper, made a bitter face, "Madam, the villain also told her so, but the little girl insisted on coming over to thank the benefactor in person, and after the villain refused, she followed the villain all the way back, and the villain couldn't do anything with a little girl, so she could only take her back to the house." ”

Lin Wangge rubbed his eyebrows, "That's it, you let her come to see me!" ”

"The folk girl Bai Qingqing has seen Mrs. and thanked her for her great kindness, and the folk girl is grateful. The folk girl is willing to be a cow and a horse to repay the great virtue of the lady. A crisp Lolita voice, with a bit of hoarseness after crying, is very easy to arouse people's sympathy and pity.

But what kind of person is Lin Elegy, how could he be moved like this, so Lin Elegy said softly with a gentle smile on his face: "Little girl, it's just a matter of helping, this matter is really nothing to me, I donate not thousands of dollars to Yuci Hall every year, but also hundreds, if everyone wants to make cattle and horses for me like you, wouldn't I have to feed many people in vain, you say?" ”

Bai Qingqing bit her lip tightly, her face was full of panic, "Mrs. misunderstood, the people's daughter doesn't need a monthly example, she just wants to repay Mrs. for her kindness." ”

"You're only about ten years old, you're so young, you can't do anything, why don't you take the rest of the silver and make a living, and when you grow up and have the ability, how about repaying the favor?"

Bai Qingqing hesitated for a moment, leaned over and kowtowed to Lin Elegy, "Thank you, madam, the folk girl has taken her leave." ”

Lin Elegy saw that Bai Qingqing seemed to be listening, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the back of the little girl's thin departure, looked at the dark sky, and sighed, "That's it, you stay for one night first, and then leave tomorrow!" ”

Bai Qingqing's face was full of panic, "The folk girl has already received the great favor of her wife, and she does not dare to accept the favor of her wife again." ”

"I also have a daughter as old as you, how about you accompany me?"

Bai Qingqing's eyes were full of gratitude, "Thank you, madam, thank you, madam." ”

"Alright, you get up!"

Bai Qingqing stood obediently beside Lin Elegy. Lin Elegy estimated that dinner would take a while, so he picked up the book on the table again, and didn't care about Bai Qingqing. Keeping Bai Qingqing for one night is already the maximum, don't expect her to entertain an unknown person as a guest.

Bai Qingqing was also very knowledgeable, and he didn't even make a sound when he stood next to him. Lin Elegy gradually forgot about her. Bai Qingqing handed over the tea at the right time and offered snacks. When the others came over to report that dinner was ready, Lin Wangge realized that Bai Qingqing had been waiting by the side just now.

Lin Wangge took Bai Qingqing to dinner, and briefly explained to Zhan Mingxuan, who was puzzled and inquiring. Zhan Mingxuan nodded casually, knowing that she had always been measured, and didn't say anything.

There was nothing unusual when I went to bed that night.

The next day, when Zhan Mingxuan got up, he found that Lin Wangge had not woken up yet, thinking that she was asleep, so he went to work after washing lightly. However, at noon, the next person hurriedly came to report.

"Master, Madame hasn't woken up yet, it's useless to shout, that girl from yesterday disappeared early this morning."

Zhan Mingxuan's face changed, and he immediately rushed out and rushed to the county guard's mansion. When I got home, I saw Lin Elegy lying on the bed who seemed to be asleep, and told my subordinates to find a doctor. However, one doctor after another shook his head and left.

"Miss, that's probably how it is."

Zhan Yunxi lowered his hand, his fingers lightly tapped on the tabletop, "When Bai Qingqing was standing next to me and waiting for my mother, was anyone beside him?" ”

Jingyi, who was crying and red-eyed on the side, said with a crying voice: "Miss, the slave maid was by Madame's side at the time, but the slave maid really kept staring at Bai Qingqing at that time, and found that she didn't do anything, so she was asked to serve tea." ”

"If it's a master, ordinary people can't detect their movements at all." Lizhu said with a cold face.

As soon as these words came out, Jingyi blamed herself even more and felt remorseful, and her eyes turned even redder.

"Ziyi, how's it going?" Zhan Yunxi saw Ziyi come out and hurriedly asked.

Zi Yi wrung her eyebrows, her face was heavy, "The poison in Madame is called 'Ghost Dream', and people who are poisoned by this poison will fall asleep for fifteen days and die unknowingly in their sleep." ”

"Is there a solution?" Zhan Mingxuan asked with a pale face.

"Yes, but ....."

"Ziyi, can't you prepare an antidote?"

Zi Yi shook her head, "No, master, it's not difficult to prepare the antidote to 'Ghost Dream', but it is difficult to find the medicinal materials you need." In particular, one of the herbs called 'Zhuyu' is extremely difficult to find, this herb often grows in the hollows of the tree, the leaves are green, but the texture is black, and the flowers are blue, the flowers are shaped like orchids, and the flowers are shining. ”

Zhan Yunxi pursed his lips, "No matter how hard it is to find, you can't give up." Ziyi, you write down the list of medicinal materials, warm smoke and tassels go to the various pharmacies in the city to find the medicinal materials that can be found, Lizhu, you go to find Yin Li, scatter all the people in our hands, and inquire around for news of Zhu Yu. ”

Zi Yi stopped: "Master, Zhu Yu estimates that not many people know, so it is better to directly inquire where there are large trees." ”

Zhan Yunxi thought for a while, "You do what Ziyi says." ”

After everyone dispersed, Zhan Mingxuan looked guilty, "Xi'er, I've worked hard for you, I have to do everything, these should not be what you have to bear." ”

"Dad, what are you talking about, we are a family, what does it matter. You should take a rest first, you probably haven't slept in the past two days. There are still three in the house, and you still need to watch them! ”

Zhan Mingxuan cheered up, "Don't worry, I won't collapse like this." I'm going to find out who is behind it. ”

Zhan Yunxi was relieved, nodded, returned to his courtyard, and hurriedly changed his clothes.

"Ziyi, you asked Xiao Mu and Xie Zheng to take the remaining ten of us to find out who did it?" There was a thick chill in his voice.

"Yes, master."

"I'll go to Shuangjinglou."

Zi Yi retracted the steps she was about to take out, and said disapprovingly: "Master, there is no one to protect you, how can you do it?" ”

"I'll bring the government soldiers, don't worry, my mother still needs you to take care of it."

Zi Yi knew that no one could change what the master decided, so she had no choice but to go to Xiao Mu and them.

Zhan Yunxi boarded the carriage and said, "Go to Shuangjinglou." ”

Zhan Yunxi clutched an embroidered handkerchief in his hand, it seemed that he had to trouble him this time, hoping that he could help.

The two guards hidden in the shadows glanced at each other.

"Miss Zhan, this is going to Shuangjinglou?"

"It seems that it is, I will go and inform the shopkeeper first, you protect Miss Zhan."

"Okay."
