Yu Xijiao's hand fell on Xiwang's wrist, her eyes narrowed slightly, then dropped, and she waved her hand. Shiba stepped forward and dragged Xiwang back a few steps before letting go.
"You've been poisoned." Yu Xijiao said calmly.
"Girl... girl, it was the eldest son who sent someone to poison the slave and forced the slave to make a false report... I beg the miraculous doctor to save the slave, save the slave." Xiwang kowtowed like garlic, every one of them knelt.
Sincerely, he also secretly visited several doctors when he was in Jiangnan, but everyone said they didn't know what it was.
Some doctors even said that maybe he had been a little tired recently, but in fact, nothing happened and he just needed to take a short rest.
Later, Xiwang followed Yu Shuxing's words and did not dare to do anything wrong. He even poisoned the prince, just because Yu Shuxing's people said that as long as he behaved well and followed the eldest son in the future, the poison on his body would be nothing.
"Poison is nothing." Yu Xijiao looked at the young man in front of her coldly, biting the corners of her lips hard, and there was a bright red line of blood on her lips.
For a person who deserves to die, this poison is indeed nothing.
"Girl, please help me!" Xiwang was overjoyed. In fact, he didn't really believe in Yu Shuxing's character.
"Girl, this is a matter of the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion and has nothing to do with us! Mr. Yu has offended you. You can't let him go. Break his legs first and see if he dares to offend you next time." Qing Qing.
Yue's indignant voice.
Xiwang pricked up his ears and listened carefully. This was clearly the eldest son's enemy. He didn't know how the eldest son had provoked such a girl. But now it was him who was in trouble. It seemed that he had suffered a disaster, not because of the prince.
What happened, I couldn't help but feel relieved.
But then she looked happy, and this girl sounded much more reliable than the eldest young master.
"Don't worry, I won't make it easy for Yu Shuxing. Didn't he ask this boy to go to the Yamen to report the case? Now... just ask him to send a letter to Zhengyuan Hou Mansion." Yu Xijiao said disapprovingly.
"What message did the girl ask him to send? He's just a useless boy. The girl doesn't have to bother to detoxify him. She just let him die of the poison. What kind of person is Mr. Yu? This boy actually believes in Mr. Yu.
If that’s the case, it’s really better to trust a dog. Even if a dog knows how to leave a way out for itself, I’m afraid this boy doesn’t understand!”
Qingyue mocked unceremoniously.
Xiwang's heart skipped a beat when he heard that, and he kowtowed a few times in the direction of Yu Xijiao, wiping his eyes and saying, "Girl, I also want to leave some way for myself to escape, but... but the eldest master won't let me.
, I have no choice but to do it. Our prince is no longer here, so I... I can only listen to the eldest son now."
"A letter, a letter sent to the Marquis of Zhengyuan's Mansion, a letter to the Madam of the Marquis of Zhengyuan's Mansion, saying that your prince got a letter from the Madam of the Marquis of Zhengyuan. He was originally going to return to Beijing, but he encountered bandits on the road south of the Yangtze River.
He was seriously injured and had no choice but to recuperate in Jiangnan and wait until his health is better before going to Beijing."
Yu Xi said delicately.
"Aunt...girl?"
"Can you say these words?" Yu Xijiao asked softly.
"Yes... yes, I can." Xiwang said repeatedly.
Yu Xijiao pointed at Qingyue's sleeve. Qingyue understood, went to the next door to find a bowl, poured the medicinal powder that Yu Xijiao mixed up at will into the sleeve, then took it in and said impatiently: "Drink it.
This is what our girls have prepared for you."
"Girl... girl, what is this?" Xiwang struggled desperately and tilted his head back. The pungent smell made him realize that this should be medicine, but what kind of medicine was it? What would be good in this situation?
The medicine doesn’t work?
How dare Xiwang drink medicine casually?
"You'll know after you drink it." Shiba came over impatiently, reached out to take the bowl, pinched Xiwang's mouth and drank.
Xiwang struggled desperately, half of the medicine went into his mouth, and half of the medicine came out. The pungent smell made Xiwang want to vomit and cough violently.
Eighteen took a few steps back.
"This medicine is good for your poison!" Yu Xijiao said.
The violent coughing stopped, and Xiwang looked in the direction of Yu Xijiao in embarrassment, almost unable to believe his ears: "Girl... girl, this is... this is the antidote."
"Half! I'm only taking half of your medicine now. When you're done, I'll give you the other half." Yu Xijiao looked at the young man in front of her coldly.
Xiwang was stunned at first, then overjoyed, and kowtowed vigorously to Yu Xijiao above.
Xiwang was taken back to the previous room to wait again, and the surroundings became quiet again. The girl must have gone to write a letter, and Xiwang's heart was restless.
He didn't know who this girl who appeared suddenly was, and why the eldest young master could have enmity with a girl. Hearing this, he still chased the eldest young master here.
If he was really cured of the poison this time, he would leave the Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion. When he followed the prince before, he had been careful and secretly bought a few things from the prince. He also had some money in his hand, and the banknotes were there.
In my arms, as long as I leave Zhengyuan Hou Mansion, what happens after that has nothing to do with me.
Although the prince has saved his life, he has no choice at the moment. He still wants to live, and it was the eldest son who forced him to do so.
But after sending the letter this time, will the eldest young master directly kill her? Can she escape? Can this girl protect herself in the eldest young master’s hands? The medicine just now is really not poisonous...
After thinking wildly for an unknown amount of time, Xiwang hurriedly cheered up when he heard footsteps approaching.
"Xiwang, right?" It was the maid who sounded impatient.
"Yes, yes, the little one is." Xiwang said hurriedly.
"Send the letter to the gate of Zhengyuanhou's Mansion and give it directly to the guard guarding the door. Say that you are sent by the Crown Prince of Zhengyuanhou. Our girl has also told you the reason why the Crown Prince does not come. Can you say no?" Qingyue
asked.
"Yes... yes, Xiaohui, the prince received the letter from the wife. He was originally going to Beijing, but he encountered bandits just after leaving Jiangnan. The prince was injured and had to return to Jiangnan to recuperate. He will go to Beijing as soon as he is better.
I'm going to visit the Madam, Madam and the County Lord." Xiwang said intelligently.
"What if someone asks you if you know about the death of Mrs. Zhengyuanhou and Lord Lanxuan?"
"No... I don't know, and neither does the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince returned to Beijing after receiving a letter from the Madam. The Madam said she missed the Crown Prince." Xiwang said repeatedly, shaking his head vigorously.
"Yes, you're not too stupid to die. Remember, you still have half of the antidote left, and you can leave the capital soon. After all, you have to go to Jiangnan to report the news to the Crown Prince Zhengyuan Hou, right?" Qingyue?
Tips.
"Yes... that's right. I'm leaving after sending the letter, and I'm going to Jiangnan to serve the prince." Xiwang's bound eyes lit up, and the things he was struggling with suddenly disappeared.
Even if the eldest son wanted to pursue him afterwards and left after detoxifying himself, he would still be there. Even if the eldest son sent people to Jiangnan, he would not be able to find him.
From now on, the world will be so big that you can go anywhere.
"Very good, as long as you do well, our girl will definitely reward you generously. Not to mention the antidote, there will be other rewards, and then we will send you out of the capital. Even if Mr. Yu has the ability, what can he do?
?" Qingyue smiled very openly, and she was a maid with an extremely flamboyant personality.
From what she said, it didn't sound like she had any deep grudge against Yu Shuxing. It was possible that the eldest son had inadvertently offended the daughter of a certain family. Of course, this identity might be very unusual, otherwise she wouldn't have secretly dealt with the eldest son. Xiwang
He guessed, but it had nothing to do with him, and even made him feel relieved.
It's not a deep hatred, that would be more true.
Since there was no deep grudge, and he was not guilty of taking the life of a young servant like himself, it seemed that he was really a blessing in disguise this time.
The letter was placed in Xiwang's arms. Shiba left with Xiwang and got on the carriage again. The carriage finally arrived at an alley.
"Not far from this alley is the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion. Do you know what to say?" Shiba's voice sounded sharp, and Xiwang guessed it was a guard.
"Yes, yes, I understand, I will definitely do it well." Xiwang said repeatedly.
"Still come here after you escape. I will come to pick you up." Shiba's voice did not fluctuate at all.
I am so happy that the last stone in my heart has fallen to the ground. Sure enough, I will come to pick myself up. This matter has a beginning and an end, so I will not break my faith with myself.
"Thank you, big brother. I understand that I will definitely be here waiting for big brother."
This is about half an antidote and the heavy reward that girl may give, and he will definitely come back.
Shiba untied Xiwang's hand, took him out of the carriage, turned towards the depths of the alley and stood there, and told him to count his breaths ten times before taking off the black cloth tying his eyes and turning around.
Xiwang responded one by one. After taking ten breaths, he did not dare to turn around immediately. He first called out in a low voice: "Brother, guard!"
When there was no sound, he called out again, "Brother, guard?"
This time there was still no sound. Xiwang pulled off the black cloth that bound his eyes, and his eyes were filled with stars. The binding was too tight and he couldn't relax for a while, so he could only close his eyes again.
When he opened his eyes again, he looked around and saw an alley. When he slowly turned around, there was nothing behind him. The guard had left with the carriage. Then he breathed a long sigh of relief and reached into his arms. There was an envelope in his arms.
The letter and a jade pendant belonging to the crown prince are all proof.
Looking up at the entrance of the alley, Xiwang didn't know where he was for a moment.
After coming out of the alley, I asked a passerby about the Zhengyuan Hou Mansion. Sure enough, it was nearby. I only had to turn an intersection and I would see it.
He reached out and touched his arms again. Compared to the eldest young master, this girl was obviously much more trustworthy, and there was no need to silence herself.
He wiped his face randomly twice, tugged at the corner of his clothes, then picked up a tree on the side of the road, rubbed it hard twice, rubbing some leaves and dust on himself, and then walked towards the intersection.
.
After crossing the intersection and turning in the opposite direction, everything became familiar. When I saw a few government officials guarding the door, I wiped my sweat and hurried forward...
