"Girl, you...are you looking for me?" Although he was extremely confused, Qi Hu still came to the pavilion.
It's just that Bai Li kept looking at him with a smile, which made him feel frightened and have pimples on his body.
"Yes." Bai Li put his chin in his hands. Seeing him making arrangements, the smile on his face became brighter. "Just now, your prince said that he has left the search for my two sisters to you, right?"
"Yes." Qi Hu answered truthfully, but did not dare to look at Bai Li.
For some reason, the more Bai Li smiles, the more uneasy Qi Hu feels. Coupled with the hot weather, even in this pavilion, sweat breaks out on his forehead.
"Oh, look at how nervous you are. It's true that I love eating, but I'm not interested in a tiger like you." While he was nervous, Bai Li's voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
Qi Hu was startled and raised his head suddenly, only to find that Bai Li had arrived at his side without knowing it.
This... why didn't he notice it?
The sweat on his forehead increased. Bai Li had no martial arts or internal strength. This was something he and Yin Haoyu had verified. Could it be that he was distracted just now, so he didn't notice her approach?
That must be the case.
Qi Hu instinctively stepped back and quickly lowered his head and said, "Girl, you are joking."
"Hehe, of course I'm joking." Bai Li smiled, his big eyes rolling around Qi Hu's body, and finally his eyes fell on Qi Hu's sweat-covered forehead: "I just think this big
It's a hot day, and Brother Qi has to help me go out to find someone. I feel very sorry, so I want to treat you to a small tea and some snacks..."
While talking, Bai Li circled Qihu in a circle, until Qihu's heart tensed up and his face tensed up. It was really difficult for this tough man.
"This is the responsibility of my subordinates. Miss, you..." Before Qi Hu finished speaking, he heard a soft "Gulu" sound. Before he could react, Bai Li's voice suddenly sounded: "Ah.
,What's this?"
Following Bai Li's finger, Qi Hu lowered his head and saw a small porcelain vase with blue and white background falling beside his feet, which looked very familiar.
Wait... isn't this the porcelain bottle that the prince gave him before?
It contains...
Qi Hu was shocked and was about to pick it up, but Bai Li picked up the porcelain bottle one step ahead of him.
She looked through it in her hands with a curious look on her face, "Hey, this bottle is so beautiful. Brother Qi, is this yours?"
Seeing Bai Li playing with the poison, Qi Hu was so anxious that he could only bite the bullet and said: "It's mine, please give it back to me, girl."
But Bai Li had no intention of returning it to him and continued to ask: "What is in it? Is it medicine?"
"Yes...it's medicine." Qi Hu swallowed his saliva and responded weakly. He felt so regretful that if he had known it, he would have been beaten to death.
"Oh..." Bai Li nodded as if he understood. Just when Qi Hu thought it was time to return it to him, Bai Li suddenly said, "So you are sick?"
"..." Qi Hu was about to cry without tears. He wished he could grab the medicine and swallow it directly. How could he be so careless and let such an important thing fall out?
Looking at Bai Li's big shining eyes, he knew that if he didn't answer, she wouldn't let him go.
Taking a deep breath, Qi Hu whispered: "Yes, I am sick."
It's a pity that Qi Hu underestimated Bai Li's patience.
Hearing his answer, Bai Li glanced at the corner of his mouth, with sympathy in his big eyes, and continued to inquire, "Oh, is that serious?"
Oh my god, my lord, please come and save me!
Qi Hu wailed in his heart, but gritted his teeth and said: "Serious, very serious, if you don't have this medicine, you will die! So, girl, please return the medicine to me quickly."
"Ah, then take it quickly." When Bai Li heard that it was so serious, he quickly returned the porcelain bottle to Qi Hu, and then said with worry: "It seems that your face is really serious, I won't keep it."
You've had your tea, and you should go back and take your medicine."
Holding the lost porcelain bottle tightly in his hand, Qi Hu almost burst into tears. He could only hold back and said: "Thank you for your concern, girl. I'll leave first."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Hu's figure disappeared into the pavilion. The speed was so fast that Bai Li was shocked.
"Hey..." Looking at the direction where the figure had long since disappeared, Bai Li sighed softly and said with regret, "It's such a pity that someone at such a young age should be so seriously ill."
If she had known he was a patient, she would have stopped stealing the medicine just now. He must be very sad now.
Bai Li felt sympathetic and guilty here, but Qi Hu, who finally escaped from her "magic clutches", was already sweating profusely.
It was really too dangerous just now. Fortunately, this girl was simple-minded and didn't understand medicine, otherwise the prince's plan would have been ruined by him.
At that time, he will not need to take this medicine, but will just take arsenic.
The first thing to do now is to find someone to test the medicine.
Qi Hu's mind changed and he strode towards the gate of Prince Yu's Mansion.
Soon, he arrived at the busiest street in Feilong Town. Looking at the crowds coming and going, Qi Hu's eyes fell on a beggar squatting in the corner.
Although her clothes were ragged and her face was sloppy, she could still tell that she was a woman in her twenties. She was about the same age as Bai Li and even had a similar figure. She was huddled in the corner pitifully, with a pair of pitiful eyes.
She looked at the pedestrians passing in front of her.
It's her!
After a slight pause, Qi Hu turned around and walked to a cake selling shop. He bought a freshly baked sesame cake. Then he walked to a deserted corner and sprinkled a little of the medicine in the porcelain bottle on the sesame cake. Last night, he
After everything, he walked towards the female beggar.
Looking at Qi Hu who suddenly stood in front of her, the female beggar looked at him nervously, then timidly lowered her eyes.
It can be seen that she is very afraid of herself.
Qi Hu was about to hand the cake in his hand to her, but suddenly thought that if the beggar was originally a fool, wouldn't the effect of this medicine be impossible to test?
With this in mind, Qi Hu thought for a while and said in a friendly voice: "Do you want to eat?"
Maybe she didn't expect that he would ask her. The female beggar looked at Qi Hu in astonishment. Seeing that he didn't have any ill intentions, she nodded slowly.
Seeing her reaction, Qi Hu took out the cake hidden behind his back and waved it to her: "Then can you tell me your name? And why are you begging here?"
Looking at the steaming biscuits, the female beggar's eyes lit up and she swallowed hard. After a while, she finally said: "The little girl's name is Tu Xin. She lives in Tujia Village thousands of miles away. Due to drought, there is a shortage of food.
I was the only one in the whole family who died. I came to the imperial city alone to seek refuge with my distant relatives, but I didn’t expect that my distant relatives had already passed away, so I had no choice but to live on the streets and beg for a living.”
Her voice was weak, but soft and clear, and she even seemed to have some knowledge.
Qi Hu nodded, hesitated for a moment and handed the sesame seed cake in his hand to her: "Eat it."
"Thank you, benefactor." Tu Xin took the sesame seed cake, thanked him, and started eating it eagerly.
She was really hungry.
Seeing her eating with gusto, Qi Hu sighed softly in his heart, and a trace of guilt slipped through his eyes.
