295 Husband and wife night talk(1/2)

Su Xiaoxiao left the ointment and anti-inflammatory medicine for Jing Yi to apply internally, and also prescribed a prescription to warm Qi and blood.

When Jing Shengming and Marquis Weiwu saw that Jing Yi's mental state was indeed better than before, they couldn't help but be secretly surprised that the other party had such medical skills at such a young age.

Looking at the retreating figures of the group, Marquis Weiwu suddenly said: "Father, do you think she looks familiar to you?"

Jing Shengming thought thoughtfully: "Maybe he looks like Qin Canglan?"

While waiting outside, Marquis Weiwu also learned about Su Xiaoxiao's identity from his father.

Marquis Weiwu wondered: "But Qin Canglan is not so good-looking..."

"Why are you staring at a little girl who doesn't look good?"

"Father, you have misunderstood. My son has no other intentions."

Marquis Weiwu is really wronged.

Thinking of something, Marquis Weiwu asked again: "She grew up among the people. How did she acquire medical skills?"

Jing Shengming said: "I heard that she became a disciple of a doctor in the town."

Marquis Weiwu asked: "Are the doctors in this town good at medicine? Why did you accept a country girl as your apprentice? Father, don't you think that girl is a little weird?"

Jing Shengming looked at the figure disappearing into the night and said nothing.

After leaving Jing's house, Xiao Chonghua's coachman drove the carriage over.

Xiao Chonghua glanced at the two of them and stopped talking.

He stepped on the footstool with one foot, suddenly turned around and said to Wei Ting: "Thank you for last night."

After that, he got into the carriage.

The carriage leaves.

Su Xiaoxiao asked strangely: "Why does he want to thank you?"

When he was assassinated last night, Su Xiaoxiao had already gone to rescue Su Ergou, and he didn't know that Wei Ting saved Xiao Chonghua's life.

Wei Ting told him about the assassination.

"That's it." Su Xiaoxiao suddenly realized.

"But." Su Xiaoxiao asked again, "Was the assassination an accident?"

Wei Ting muttered: "Maybe Xiao Chonghua and I just happened to appear together. This is a rare opportunity. If we don't take action, we may not get it again."

While talking, the two got into the carriage. Wei Ting opened the curtain and placed one hand on the door frame.

The top of her head lightly brushed against his palm.

When she sat down, he lowered the curtain and took the seat next to her.

Fusu drove the carriage in the direction of the medical center.

"I allow you to come and treat Jing Yi's injuries," Wei Ting said seriously.

Su Xiaoxiao yelled and looked at him with raised eyebrows: "Are you so kind all of a sudden? Aren't you afraid that I will attract bees and butterflies outside?"

Wei Ting said nonchalantly: "Hehe, you're a boy who doesn't even have a full head of hair!"

Su Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes: "Did you hear what he just said to me?"

Wei Ting said calmly: "I don't have a habit of eavesdropping."

Su Xiaoxiao said: "Yes, you didn't eavesdrop, you listened openly. Who told you to have good ears, right?"

Wei Ting looked serious and said nothing.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at him funny.

Wei Ting decisively changed the subject: "The poisoning of Marquis Zhenbei has nothing to do with the Wei family, it's someone else."

Su Xiaoxiao touched her chin: "Oh, the two families have a deep hatred. Why can't your Wei family hold back?"

Naturally, Wei Ting couldn't say that he had planned to do it but failed.

He coughed lightly and said seriously: "Our Wei family is upright and aboveboard, so naturally we don't bother to do such a thing."

Su Xiaoxiao blinked: "Oh."

Wei Ting looked at her coldly: "What's your expression?"

"Nothing!" Su Xiaoxiao smiled, "By the way, you just said that when we were planning to leave a few people alive last night, the eldest prince led the imperial army to arrive and killed those few people alive."

Getting back to the topic, Wei Ting's expression corrected: "That's right."

Su Xiaoxiao said: "From this perspective, isn't the eldest prince's suspicion very high?"

Wei Ting nodded.

Su Xiaoxiao added: "Who does he want to kill? Is it you and the third prince, or one of you two?"

Wei Ting paused and expressed his speculation: "It's best to kill both of them together. If you can only kill one, kill Xiao Chonghua and blame the Wei family."

Su Xiaoxiao thought: "Killing Xiao Chonghua and putting the blame on the Wei family... can not only exonerate myself, but also remove a stumbling block on the road to seizing the throne. Most importantly, it gives the emperor a reason to clean up the Wei family. "

Su Xiaoxiao rubbed her double chin and said, "This eldest prince knows his father's thoughts very accurately."

The Wei family has great achievements. Emperor Jingxuan had long wanted to take back the military power of the Wei family. However, the Wei family was full of young men, and almost all of them died in the border battles. Such achievements can be seen from the sun and the moon. Emperor Jingxuan was bound to suffer disaster if he wanted to attack the Wei family. People all over the world questioned and despised him.

It may even leave a very disgraceful mark in the history books.

Emperor Jingxuan wanted to be remembered in history, so he couldn't be careless.

What could be more effective in discrediting the Wei family than assassinating the prince?

Wei Ting said: "There is still one alive. He is an archer in the forest. Let him escape for the time being."

Su Xiaoxiao asked: "Is he also a member of the eldest prince?"

Wei Ting frowned slightly: "It's hard to say."

Su Xiaoxiao was confused: "What do you mean it's not easy to say?"

Wei Ting told the news he got from Mrs. Wei: "The token that fell from that man's body belonged to a martial arts sect that has long since disappeared. My grandfather personally led the troops to eradicate it."

Su Xiaoxiao hesitated: "Does the imperial court also care about the affairs of the Jianghu?"

Wei Ting said: "Normally I don't ask questions. However, that Jianghu sect is so short-sighted that he actually kidnapped the imperial envoy sent by the imperial court to provide disaster relief and also took away the money used for disaster relief."

"Oh, that means they are seeking their own death." Su Xiaoxiao thought for a while and said, "If the eldest prince colludes with them, wouldn't he be violating the emperor's taboo?"

"That's right." Wei Ting tapped his fingertips twice on the table, "When we catch the assassin, we'll have a good show."

Su Xiaoxiao only knows two princes in total, the third prince Xiao Chonghua and the eldest prince Xiao Duye. Judging from the current situation, neither of them is simple.

Wei Ting's eyes were deep and he said: "The emperor has not established a prince so far just to prevent his sons from killing each other like he did back then. It's a pity that the dragon chair is made of blood, and no one can sit on it cleanly."

Su Xiaoxiao was deeply convinced.

Thinking of something, Su Xiaoxiao said again: "Do you think...the corpses under the attic are related to the eldest prince?"

Anyway, she didn't believe that the eldest prince happened to be passing by nearby.

Wei Ting pondered for a moment and said: "The case is still in the preliminary investigation stage, and there is currently no definite evidence to prove that it is related to the eldest prince."

If there were, it would be too terrifying. With so many corpses, I don’t know what kind of shocking murder it was.

Su Xiaoxiao asked: "What did you see down there?"

Wei Ting recalled: "Skeletons... countless skeletons... some were sitting or lying... some were curled up... some were lying on their stomachs... in different postures."

Su Xiaoxiao said: "It sounds like they lived in the cellar and were not carried in after death."

Wei Ting stared at it and said, "I had the same feeling when I saw it for the first time."

Su Xiaoxiao sniffed.

"What's wrong?" Wei Ting looked at her strangely.

Su Xiaoxiao leaned over, grabbed his collar and sniffed him, then opened the car curtain and sniffed outside.

"Wei Ting, do you smell it?"

Wei Ting asked strangely: "What do you smell?"

Su Xiaoxiao said: "The aroma, the aroma in the cellar."

Wei Ting frowned: "Is there a scent in the cellar?"

He only smelled the rotting corpse gas and stench.

"Stop!" Su Xiaoxiao said seriously.

Fusu quickly stopped the carriage.

Su Xiaoxiao opened the curtain and jumped out of the carriage.

Wei Ting hurriedly followed.

Su Xiaoxiao's steps were much faster than in the countryside, and her movements became particularly flexible. She entered a study.
