Xiao Jingliang got up early. He wanted to see Wanyang and ask her about the poison.
As soon as he arrived at the courtyard, the servants automatically retreated because Governor Xiao had ordered that the fourth young master and Miss Wan should not be disturbed when they were alone.
Wanyang was still sleeping, but she heard a knock on the door. She opened her eyes in a daze, rubbed her sleepy eyes, got up and opened the door for Xiao Jingliang, who was outside, and asked, "Is something okay?"
Xiao Jingliang saw that she was still wearing her pajamas and long skirt, and her eyes averted to the side: "There is a century-old breakfast shop in Liangcheng. You can finish your meal a while, and I will take you to have a try today."
Wanyang looked behind him and saw a piece of cloth from a servant's clothes at the door of the courtyard. She knew that he had something to say and it was not convenient to talk about it at home.
So, she pretended to be very interested and said, "Really? Master, wait a moment, I'm going to wash up and change clothes." After that, she ran into the house.
Xiao Jingliang waited in the yard for a while and saw Wanyang come out after changing her clothes. She was wearing a light blue cheongsam, which accentuated Wanyang's slender waist.
When Wan Yang saw Xiao Jingliang staring straight at her, she raised her hand and touched her cheek, pretending to be confused and asked: "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"
Xiao Jingliang shook her head quickly: "No, I just think this outfit suits you very well today."
Wanyang smiled, feeling happy.
Xiao Jingliang drove Wanyang to a breakfast shop called ‘Chen Xi Ju’.
"Excuse me, what do you two want to eat?" The waiter inside saw Xiao Jingliang and Wanyang coming in and greeted them.
"Today I brought my friends here to serve you a special breakfast." Xiao Jingliang took care of Wanyang and walked all the way in. He was very familiar with this place.
"Okay! Just a moment!" the waiter responded, then turned around and went to the kitchen to prepare.
Xiao Jingliang and Wanyang sat down in the private room, and the food they ordered was quickly served.
"Try it, the breakfast here is from the palace, it definitely tastes good." Xiao Jingliang scooped up a bowl of white porridge for Wanyang and pushed it in front of her.
"Thank you!" Wanyang took the bowl and took a sip. It tasted okay.
Then he put down his spoon and went straight to the topic: "Tell me! What do you want from me today?"
"You said yesterday that there is a poison that can make people miserable without killing them. What is it?" Xiao Jingliang did not beat around the bush.
"Why, do you really want to use it for your second aunt?" Wanyang raised her eyebrows when she heard this.
"Yeah." Xiao Jingliang responded.
Wanyang reached into her embroidery bag, took out a small red porcelain bottle from the system space, placed it in front of Xiao Jingliang, and began to introduce it in detail.
"This medicine can make people want to die but not die, but it cannot be taken directly. It needs to be taken orally slowly. As long as you take it according to the dosage for three days, the toxin will be with you for life. Although the effect of this poison is obvious,
But no doctor will detect poisoning in people who take it."
"Why do you carry this kind of thing with you? And why are you so sure that other doctors can't detect it?" Xiao Jingliang looked at Wanyang in shock.
"When you go out, you have to take something for self-defense. I personally researched this medicine at the former Wanjia Pharmacy. I have tried it many times and the effect is excellent." Wan Yang said nonsensically.
In fact, this medicine was developed by her in another world. The formula for developing the poison is not available in this world.
Therefore, doctors in this world will not recognize that people who take this poison are poisoned.
"Since you know how to develop poisons, you must be knowledgeable about medicine, right?" Xiao Jingliang picked up the small red porcelain bottle on the table and looked at it carefully.
"I only know a little bit about it, I dare not claim to be proficient." Wanyang replied humbly.
Xiao Jingliang played with the small porcelain bottle and fell into silence for a while.
Wan Yang knew that Xiao Jingliang was considering whether he should be wary of herself. After all, a person who could develop poison was considered a dangerous person to everyone.
After breakfast, they returned to the Governor's Mansion and heard reports from their servants that the second concubine had been knocked unconscious by Governor Xiao with a whip.
No matter how they felt about the second aunt in their hearts, they still had to pretend and hurried over.
The second aunt was in the bedroom, lying on the bed covered in blood. The pain in her body made her groan and she looked miserable.
"Mom, are you okay?" Xiao Jingliang asked pretending to be anxious.
When the second concubine saw Xiao Jingliang and Wanyang coming in, she immediately felt that she had a life-saving straw. She hurriedly took his arm and asked for help: "Jingliang, you have to help me persuade the warlord! He said he wanted to take away my life.
Steward Quan wants to divorce me... Wuwuwu! How can I live if I leave the Governor's Mansion!"
"Don't worry, mother, father will not divorce you. Don't be afraid. Recuperate well first. I will definitely advise father!" Xiao Jingliang comforted you.
"Really?" The second aunt looked at Xiao Jingliang in disbelief.
Xiao Jingliang nodded solemnly.
"Okay, okay... I feel relieved with your words." The second aunt wiped her tears, and then started to wipe her tears again, not forgetting to complain to Xiao Jingliang: "I have worked hard to serve your father for so many years.
How could he do this to me...wuwuwu!"
"Mom, don't think too much. You also know that my father has a good reputation. What Su Momo said yesterday was indeed inappropriate. He was just angry. He will definitely regret it afterwards."
"Regret?" The second aunt snorted coldly, "He won't regret it! He doesn't even treat me as a human being. He beats and scolds me when he is unhappy..."
Xiao Jingliang held back his patience and frowned: "Mom, you better not say nonsense. If it reaches father's ears, he will probably be angry again, and he will still be the one who will suffer the loss!"
"Okay!" The second aunt nodded in agreement, and then asked Xiao Jingliang: "You must not let your father divorce me, otherwise, I really won't be able to live..." The second aunt said,
I burst into tears again.
When Wanyang saw her second aunt crying so sadly, she probably acted it out for Xiao Jingliang.
After all, Xiao Jingliang was also very dissatisfied with her actions yesterday. If she didn't desperately hold on to the snatched son, she might really have to leave the Governor's Mansion.
She stepped forward, supported the second concubine, and comforted her softly: "Second wife, please stop crying now. Take good care of yourself and I will work with the fourth young master to help you persuade Uncle Xiao."
"Thank you! Thank you! I'll trouble you, Yangyang!" The second aunt said to Wanyang gratefully while wiping her tears.
"Second Madam, you are serious!" After Wan Yang finished speaking, she turned to look at Xiao Jingliang and motioned for them to go out together.
He nodded in agreement and followed Wanyang out of the room.
The servant said that Governor Xiao was still in the front hall, so the two of them rushed over.
