Chapter Seventy-One: Careful Care
Hearing Ji Qiu's words, Ji Ling'er shook her head and said, "I don't recommend you to do this, I'm not worried that it will affect you, but you don't have conclusive evidence to prove that Wang Laoqi is innocent, how do you know that the aconitum under the stove was not burned by Wang Laoqi himself?"
"If he burned it himself, why did he take the initiative to tell me? Wouldn't it be better to sit back and wait for things to deteriorate?" Ji Qiu paused here and continued, "If it was him who poisoned him, how could he try to detoxify it? Besides, he knew that this matter would affect him, so why didn't he stay after poisoning, but stayed in the alliance and waited for the criminal law hall to be held accountable and severely punished?"
"You're talking about reason, not credentials. Ji Ling'er shook her head and said, "As I said, what the Criminal Law Hall values is credentials, and you can't come up with real evidence to prove that the poisoning has nothing to do with him." ”
"What you mean is that if you can't find the real culprit, the black pot will have to be carried by Wang Laoqi?" Ji Qiu said in a hurry, affecting the injury, and coughing again and again.
Seeing this, Ji Ling'er hurriedly sat on the edge of the bed and stroked his chest and calmed his breath, "Don't worry, the Criminal Law Hall will not easily punish the crime without real evidence, and in my opinion, Wang Laoqi will not be seriously punished, but he will definitely not be able to wait for the Soul Suppression Alliance." ”
Hearing Ji Ling'er's words, Ji Qiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he still felt sorry for Wang Laoqi, "Although Wang Laoqi has a smooth tone and has little responsibility, he is really not a bad person, you have to believe that I will not look at the wrong person." ”
"Everyone is a good person in the eyes of a good person," Ji Ling'er said, "You still say that Ji Haoran is a good person, is he?"
Ji Qiu had already stopped coughing, but Ji Linger's words made him cough angrily, so he pulled Ji Linger's hand away, and didn't need her to soothe her chest for herself.
The eldest lady has one thing in common, that is, she has a big temper, seeing that Ji Qiu actually opened her hand, Ji Ling'er was a little annoyed, but she was reluctant to get angry at Ji Qiu, and after taking a deep breath, she whispered, "Don't worry, I'll go to my father and see what he says." ”
"Okay, I'm sorry for you," Ji Qiu said, "I have a friend of him in the Soul Suppression League, and you have taken him away, and I won't even have anyone to talk to in the future." ”
"You have nothing to say to me?" Ji Ling'er looked at him with disgust.
Ji Qiu was worried, and had no intention of talking to Ji Ling'er, and closed his eyes after taking a long breath.
Ji Ling'er only thought that he was tired, so he stood up and walked towards the door, and turned around when he walked to the door, "Do you want to relieve yourself?"
Ji Qiu shook his head.
Only then did Ji Linger step out and close the door.
People are in good spirits on happy occasions, they are sleepy in their hearts, and they have lost too much blood before, Ji Qiu fell asleep after Ji Linger left, and it was sunset when he woke up again, he didn't wake up by himself, but was awakened by the sound of the door opening, and after opening his eyes, he found that Ji Linger was walking in from the door.
"How is it, what does the alliance leader say?" Ji Qiu asked eagerly.
"I'll tell you later. Ji Ling'er walked to the table, put a small flat box on the table, and then picked up the fire fold and blew the lamp.
Lighting the oil lamp, Ji Linger tilted her head to look at him, "Do you want to relieve yourself?"
"I'm not a dung bucket, where can I get so many solutions," Ji Qiu sighed helplessly, "Say quickly, what are they going to do with Wang Laoqi?"
"Not for poisoning, but for dereliction of duty. Ji Linger said.
"Then you mean to drive him away?" Ji Qiu was not satisfied with this result.
Ji Ling'er suppressed the eldest lady's temper and said patiently, "Even if he didn't poison him, there will always be dereliction of duty, and if he does something wrong, he must always bear the consequences." ”
"Autumn is dry, he used andrographis and honeysuckle to be symptomatic, the problem is in the aconite, but it was not he who did it, he was not derelict in his duty, he was framed. Ji Qiu said.
Ji Ling'er shook her head helplessly, "Okay, okay, what you said is right, I won't argue with you, anyway, you have to go to the Soul Suppression Hall tomorrow, you can say whatever you want." ”
"What am I going to do in the main hall?" asked Ji Qiu.
"My father and a few sect leaders will see you," Ji Ling'er came to the side of the bed with the small flat box, "Lie down, I'll give you a dressing." ”
"What is this, how can there be a smell of fat powder?" Ji Qiu asked casually.
"This is the rejuvenation paste I asked for from the Youyun Sect, which is made from the snow bee honey of the Falling Cold Snow Region and the ghost needle grass of the Southern Wilderness, which is not easy to obtain and is very precious. While speaking, Ji Ling'er dipped the tip of her right index finger a little and showed Ji Qiu.
"Why is it so dark?" Ji Qiu was puzzled, "I'm not a woman, why should I wipe this kind of thing?"
Ji Ling'er reached out and grabbed Ji Qiu's hand and asked him to touch his cheek, "Why do you say." ”
Since he had never looked in the mirror, Ji Qiu didn't know how swollen his head and face were, and this time he finally knew, his head and face were full of bags, big bags and small bags, small bags were not counted, there were five or six big bags taller than his nose alone.
"Rejuvenation cream can reduce swelling and remove stasis, you have to go to the main hall tomorrow to reply, take medicine earlier, and take effect earlier. Ji Ling'er began to apply ointment to Ji Qiu.
"Can the swelling be completely reduced?" Ji Qiu asked.
Ji Ling'er shook her head with a smile, "You can't completely reduce the swelling, you can only let you have a face." ”
Ji Qiu didn't speak again, he lay down honestly, and Ji Ling'er applied the medicine.
Although this rejuvenation balm is black and sticky, it is very cool when applied to the face, and the original swelling and numbness are greatly relieved.
"The Anti-Blood Guardian sneak attack on the Soul Suppression Alliance, do you have a big loss?" Ji Qiu asked in a low voice, not that he deliberately lowered his voice, but that his mouth and nose were coated with ointment, making it difficult to open his mouth.
"Thanks to your prior warning, the monks in the alliance were able to deal with it in time," Ji Ling'er said, "There are many injured in this battle of the Soul Alliance, but there are not many casualties, but because of poisoning, there are many dead and wounded on the mounts in this battle, and we are going to go to Juguo Prefecture later, which is a settlement of foreign races, and there are many birds of prey and beasts." ”
"You're going to capture the mount?" asked Ji Qiu.
"Recruitment. Ji Linger corrected.
"Oh. Ji Qiu was thoughtful.
Ji Ling'er said, "Since you have practiced the Samadhi True Fire, you are a disciple of my Yanjian Sect, you can't do this miscellaneous work, when you see your father and the sect masters tomorrow, you will officially join the alliance, and then they will go to the Cave State, you can also go together." ”
Ji Qiu didn't answer.
Ji Ling'er didn't know what Ji Qiu was thinking, and said, "There is one thing I haven't been able to figure out, the secret book that my father gave you has been torn off by you, I have secretly come over to see you a few times before, and I haven't seen you meditate and practice qi, how did you practice the true fire of samadhi?"
Ji Qiu was still silent.
Women only talk a lot in front of the people they like, but in fact, Ji Ling'er is not a good talkative and easy-going person, this time she has been talking, but Ji Qiu is silent, Ji Ling'er is a little unhappy, "Let me ask you." ”
"If I hadn't practiced the Samadhi True Fire, would you still want me?" Ji Qiu asked.
Ji Ling'er didn't expect Ji Qiu to ask such a question, and was a little stunned, but after a little silence, he understood why he asked, "You didn't want to join the Yanjian Sect that day, it's not that my father won't accept you." ”
Ji Qiu said, "At that time, everyone thought that I was trying to repay the favor in order to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, except for you, no one gave me a good face, and those senior brothers of yours looked at me with disgust, and even the third aunt advised me to stay away from you, I wanted to leave, but I was worried that you would not be able to save face, so I accepted the true fire of samadhi that no one has practiced for thousands of years." ”
"What do you care about others, I only ask you, when did I, Ji Ling'er, disappoint you?" Ji Ling'er confessed.
"No," Ji Qiu said truthfully, "but you once chased and slashed Feng Tianlun with a sword, and those senior brothers of yours are familiar with him, so they can't be angry with me, even if I worship the Flame Arrow Sect, they won't be too kind to me." ”
Ji Ling'er frowned and asked, "If you don't enter the Flame Arrow Sect, do you want to worship other sects?"
"Is it possible?" Ji Qiu asked casually.
"Logically speaking, no, but my father didn't admit you when he passed on your Samadhi True Fire, and if you insist on joining other sects, no one can interfere with you. Ji Linger said.
"Oh. Ji Qiu responded.
"You don't really want to worship other sects, do you? Don't forget to dig wells, you are practicing the stunt of the Flame Arrow Sect, and it's not good to worship other sects?" Ji Ling'er didn't want the fat water to flow into the fields of outsiders.
"But I really don't like those senior brothers of yours. Ji Qiu said.
Ji Ling'er sighed and didn't persuade again.
Ji Qiu asked, "Don't be angry, I haven't made up my mind yet, and even if I want to join other sects, people won't necessarily want me." ”
"Why don't they?" they can't ask for," Ji Ling'er pointed in the direction of the Soul Suppression Hall, "I won't hide the truth from you, several sect masters had just left when I went to look for my father during the day, and they went to find my father in order to obtain my father's consent and want to take you into the sect." ”
"What did the Alliance Leader say?" asked Ji Qiu.
"What else can I say, it's your business, it's up to you. Ji Linger said.
"Oh. "Ji Qiu has a bottom in his heart.
Ji Ling'er was originally applying medicine to Ji Qiu, but when she said this, she was angry, so she got up and left, and sat down at the table to get angry.
"I haven't wiped my forehead yet, but there are two bags here. Ji Qiu reminded.
"Don't wipe it, keep it......"
