The clouds obscured the sun, the breeze rustled through the bamboos, and only a few cicadas were left in the silent courtyard.

"Okay, I'm sorry for you to make a trip, let Zhuqing send you back." Qingyang said, raised his hand and gestured to Zhuqing.

"And what exactly is his purpose?" After the old man left, Qingshu asked puzzledly.

"Purpose?" Qingyang provoked and said, "Purpose, little sister, do you know?" ”

Jiang Tao was slightly stunned, "This... I..."

How embarrassed am I to say that maybe it's because he likes me? Jiang Tao thought to herself.

"Earlier, this eldest lady always put some content in the little sister's diet, but she was secretly stopped by the second brother a few times and it didn't work." Qingshu's right hand slammed heavily on the solid wood square table, "I definitely didn't have any good intentions this time." ”

"Still." Qingyang muttered, "Today, I see that our eldest lady is uncomfortable. ”

"You mean, Liang Qingchen didn't consult with her?"

Jiang Tao looked at Qingshu and Qingyang and discussed with me a word, and quickly recognized an important piece of information.

At the entrance of the bamboo temple, there were two tall families, and the courtyard was empty.

After entering, a cobblestone path winds its way, and the road is lined with dense bamboo forests, and the temperature in the yard is two minutes lower than outside.

The three brothers and sisters were discussing the "prescription incident" in the main hall.

"Wait." Jiang Tao stretched out her hand to interrupt the conversation between the two.

"What did you just say?" Jiang Tao looked at Qingshu, then at Qingyang and said, "You mean that my stepmother put cold things in my diet, do you know this?" ”

Qingshu and Qingyang glanced at each other, and then looked at Jiang Tao's puzzled look.

"Of course we do." Qingshu replied hesitantly, "Didn't the second brother let Zhu Qing secretly tell you many times that you were not allowed to eat those shrimps and crabs." ”

"My second brother and I have also blocked it a few times, and since then, the eldest lady has reined in." Qingshu shook his head and said.

Qingyang looked up at Jiang Tao, his eyes were as calm as a deep pool, "I just don't know why you almost died of illness again." ”

"Yes, it's good that you didn't die, fourth sister, otherwise..."

Qingyang's words pierced Jiang Tao's temple like a stinger, and a pain scattered from the stinger.

Qingshu's words were gradually inaudible, and the pain repeatedly hit every inch of nerves in Jiang Tao's mind, and fragments of memory gradually emerged......

"Fourth Miss, the tonic soup sent by the lord king..."

"Fourth Miss, the tonic soup that the second young master called to send..."

"Fourth Miss, this is a tonic soup sent by the eldest young master..."

"Tonic soup..."

Suddenly, Jiang Tao woke up from her dizziness, and the pain receded like a defeated army.

"Tonic soup..."Jiang Tao muttered, raised her head and looked at Qingyang with a complicated expression.

"What doesn't hurt?" Qingshu listened to Jiang Tao's subtle voice and repeated, "Little sister, are you hysterical?" ”

"No, the second brother won't harm me, and neither will my father..."Jiang Tao muttered.

"What's wrong with this silly girl?" Qingshu looked at Qingyang and said, "Don't be stupid, didn't you say that it was almost good?" ”

Qingyang couldn't help but tighten the distance between his eyebrows when he saw Jiang Tao, who was in pain, leaned over to Jiang Tao, and gently comforted him.

"Tonic soup?"

"But what do you remember?" Qingyang asked in a low voice.

Qingshu was also stopped by Qingyang's eyes, smacked his lips, and waited for Jiang Tao's answer with concern.

"Second brother..."Jiang Tao's eyes were a little cold, and his face was a little pale, "Second brother, someone poisoned me, who could it be?" ”

"If someone in this courtyard harms you, then who else can be, it must be..."

When the words came to his lips, seeing Qingyang's sharp eyes, Qingshu swallowed the rest of the words back.

Jiang Tao looked at Qingshu, who wanted to speak and stopped, and also understood something.

"Someone poisoned?" Qingyang's pupils are slightly retracted.

"I remembered that people had been bringing me tonic soup before." Jiang Tao said coldly, "Every time, it was sent by my father, eldest brother and second brother. ”

After a moment of cleanness, there was a slight rustling of bamboo leaves outside the house.

"Shameless!" Qingyang flicked his sleeves violently and knocked all the tea cups on the table to the ground, and the sound of porcelain pieces breaking stirred for a long time before calming down.

The tea soaked the bluestone slab floor, which looked extremely cold.

There was such a big movement in the house, and there was no sound of movement outside the house, Jiang Tao was secretly frightened, not only was the second brother so worried about himself, but more importantly, the second brother was afraid that it was not simple.

"How could my father and brother poison you?" Qingshu also frowned tightly, and a question pulled Jiang Tao back from his thoughts, "Are you mistaken?" ”

"yes, how could my father and brother poison me." Jiang Tao turned his head to look at Qingyang and muttered.

"Naturally, someone is pretending to be a father and brother." The tumbling red mist around Qingyang gradually receded, and Jiang Tao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Jiang Tao had already concentrated his willpower to probe the emotions of the two, and after Qingshu and Qingyang heard Jiang Tao's words, a violently tumbling red mist rose around them, indicating that the anger of the two was not faked.

If it was really Qingyang who participated in the poisoning, then hearing Jiang Tao's words, there should be an anxious, nervous yellow mist or an orange mist of fear surging at this moment.

"That is, someone poisoned me in the name of my father and brother, who could it be?" Jiang Tao already trusted Qingyang very much at this moment.

In addition to his father and brother, this family is his father's concubine and stepfamily, and that Aunt Wang rarely showed up in the past, and never had a conflict with her brothers and sisters.

Instead, it's this stepmother, who is simply lice on a bald head - obviously.

Thinking of the emotions he had just crossed over to see his stepmother, Jiang Tao's heart was a lot firmer, and the answer was already very obvious.

It seems that I am already a thorn in the side of this stepmother, and she did not hesitate to poison me? Jiang Tao thought of this, with a little chill in his eyes.

Qingshu couldn't help but shudder when he saw Jiang Tao's eyes, how could Jiang Qinghe, who had been sick and weak since childhood, have such "murderous" eyes.

couldn't help but swallow his saliva and said, "That, little sister, you drink some water." "I want to interrupt this situation.

Qingyang was also slightly stunned, and turned his head to look at Jiang Tao.

"That's all for today, you don't have to worry about it." Qingyang looked at Jiang Tao and said firmly, there was no trace of emotion in his eyes, "You can take care of it according to this prescription, and when you grab the medicine, you must have a henchman by your side." ”

Hearing this, Jiang Tao was stunned.

"Yes, yes, you don't care, you have me and my second brother." At this moment, Qingshu was also busy comforting.

The two obviously didn't want Jiang Tao to get involved in the infighting, Jiang Tao's heart warmed, after all, everything in the previous life needed to rush to the front line by himself, and he was used to the rain of bullets and dangers.

"Let Zhuqing follow you for a few days until you finish taking this medicine." Qing Yang paused, and added: "The matter of catching the medicine is near, you can rest assured that he will do it." ”

"How's that going to work?" Jiang Tao hurriedly said: "I'll just keep an eye on it myself, he is your henchman, what should you do if you give him to me?" ”

"Hey, just listen to the second brother!" Qingshu also stepped forward to admonish.

Qingyang also nodded, reassuring Jiang Tao.

The warm two people in front of him made Jiang Tao's heart soften, he couldn't let the people who cared about him worry, thinking in his heart, his face was also a lot soothed, he nodded, and said, "Okay." ”

But he himself cannot be a lamb to the slaughter.

On the way out of the Bamboo Cultivation Academy, Jiang Tao kept thinking about it, and the Qingshu beside him chattered endlessly, not knowing what to say, and Zhuqing followed behind the two without saying a word.

After thinking for a while, Jiang Tao suddenly stopped.

Qingshu, who was beside him, walked out far away with hindsight, only to find that Jiang Tao had not followed.

"Huh? Why don't you go, how far have you walked and you can't walk? Qingshu turned around and said, "You haven't been to your yard yet, and you still want me to carry you?" ”

Since he didn't offend this stepmother, could it be because of Liang Qingchen? Jiang Tao thought of this, and felt that things seemed to be a lot more reasonable.

"Does that Liang Gongzi come often?" Jiang Tao asked, walking forward slowly.

"Call the third brother." Qingshu Road.
