Chapter 42: Fortunately
How could she not fall in love with such a man.
Baili Huaqing poured water, stood in front of the bed and put down the bed curtain, thought for a while, he took off his robe again, climbed on the bed and hugged Xia Xiaoyu, "Xiaoyu, I'll sleep with you for a while, and when the tiger girl wakes up, I'll go over to take care of her." β
"Good! But don't oversleep. β
"Hmm."
Baili Huaqing hugged Xia Xiaoyu from behind, let her nest comfortably in her arms, bowed her head and kissed her hair, and said in a low voice: "Xiaoyu, sleep." β
"Good! You sleep too. Xia Xiaoyu's mind began to be hazy, she was so tired these days, she fell asleep quickly.
Early the next morning.
Kang Lin and Dongzi hurried to the [Jing Courtyard] and stood in front of Hu Niu's door, "Master, Kang Lin has something urgent to report." β
Baili Huaqing got up, glanced at the sleeping tiger girl, and went to open the door lightly, "What's the matter?" β
"Master, let's go to the study." Kang Lin and Dongzi both had solemn faces.
Baili Huaqing gently closed the door, and the three of them walked towards the study. Entering the study, Kang Lin immediately said, "Master, something is wrong." The people in the other courtyard are all vomiting and diarrhea, I don't know what's going on? β
"How so? Did you let Rong Zhi see it? β
Kang Lin nodded, "Doctor Rong Shen has been busy early in the morning and has not stopped until now, and the medicinal materials in our [Pharmacy] are not enough, I just received information that there are many people in the villages outside who have the same symptoms." β
"What did Rong Zhi say?" Baili Huaqing frowned and asked in a deep voice.
"Food poisoning!"
"Food poisoning?" Baili Huaqing thought for a while, and immediately said: "Water, there must be something wrong with the water." β
People in this area all drink the water of Guling Lake, and everyone's usual food is different, the only thing that is the same is water.
Kang Lin responded: "I'll go and check the water of Guling Lake immediately." β
Dongzi remained silent.
Until Kang Lin came out of the study door, he also stood still with a pensive face.
Baili Huaqing looked at him and asked, "Dongzi, what did you find?" "Master and servant for so many years, Baili Huaqing still knows Dongzi very well.
Dongzi shook his head, "Master, I'll check it out right away." After speaking, he didn't wait for Baili Huaqing to speak, and left for the first time so rudely. Dongzi rushed all the way into the [Lotus Courtyard] and directly kicked the Lingling's room.
Jiu'er was coming out of the clean room with water, and was startled by him, and with a bang, the copper basin fell to the ground and sprinkled the water. She was stunned for only a few seconds, but she couldn't stop Dongzi who rushed to open the bed curtain. Thinking that Ling Ling was sleeping with only his underwear, Jiu'er rushed forward with a red face.
"Hey, you dare? Offending the princess is a great sin to cut off the head. β
Dongzi looked at the sleepy-eyed and relaxed Ling, and couldn't help but be angry, "You still sleep?" β
The coldness in Dongzi's tone made Ling Ling's sleepiness disappear in an instant, and she squinted her eyes slightly and looked at him, "You'd better have a good reason, otherwise, you will wait to be the eternal sinner of the Hundred Miles Country." "This man is really crazy, does he still have himself as a princess in his eyes?
Is he really bullying himself?
"Humph!" Dongzi snorted coldly, his eyes stared at her eyes tightly, and his tone was even colder than just now, "I think this eternal sinner should be you, don't you want to push the responsibility on me." Today, I just killed you, and that was just a warning to the Xilin Kingdom. We are a hundred miles of country, and we are indisputable everywhere, but it is not because we have no strength. β
"Excellent! I will convey this to my brother as it is. He got out of bed and put on his shoes, and did not care about Dongzi's presence.
Jiu'er was on the side, dumbfounded.
She forgot to take a cloak to cover the spirit's body.
Dongzi reached out and grabbed Ling Ling's hand hard, glaring at her viciously, "What medicine did you pour into Gu Ling Lake yesterday?" β
He was stunned.
Dongzi was even more angry, and sure enough, every qiΔ was a good thing she did.
Jiu'er came back to her senses and hurriedly clarified, "You can't talk nonsense, how can our princess pour medicine into Guling Lake?" You don't want to spray people with blood. β
"I'm squirting blood?" Dongzi smiled coldly, "Yesterday I watched her very nervously pour the medicinal powder into the Guling Lake, and then, she ran down the mountain as if she was running away. Early this morning, people in the courtyard and the surrounding villages were vomiting and diarrhea. She didn't do it, and who didn't do it? β
Dongzi took out a small porcelain vase from his arms, "This is what you threw on the mountain yesterday, what else do you have to say now?" β
"Do the people in the courtyard and the nearby villages really vomit and diarrhea?" Qian Ling answered the question, but listening to her tone, Dongzi and Jiu'er both knew that this matter had nothing to do with her.
Jiu'er was in a hurry.
"Princess, you didn't do this, you can't admit it."
Lingling stood in a trance, letting Dongzi pull her hand.
Dongzi was so angry that he couldn't help but increase his strength, only to hear the crisp sound of bones, Jiu'er cried and reached out to hit Dongzi, "You let go!" You've hurt our princess. β
"Huh? I ......" Dongzi came back to her senses, looking guilty, but when she thought of what she had done, the little guilt that had just risen disappeared, "She deserves it!" After saying that, he let go of her hand and blew past Jiu'er like the wind.
There was a loud bang, and the door collapsed.
Jiu'er was startled, looking at the door that fell to the ground, and trembling with anger.
"Princess, they are so deceitful."
Qian Ling sat on the edge of the bed like a deflated ball, and muttered in a low voice, "Brother Huang really did it......" Tears couldn't help but slide down.
Why?
Why did the royal brother have to cause a war?
Isn't it good for everyone to get along in harmony?
"Princess, are you in pain? Jiu'er immediately called for a doctor. Jiu'er saw her crying, so she hurriedly wiped away her tears, thinking that she had a sore hand. Qian Ling ignored her, and Jiu'er hurriedly explained, "Princess, you wait for Jiu'er here, and Jiu'er will go to ask for a doctor immediately." With that, she ran out.
"Go to the doctor." Jiu'er stood at the door of the room and shouted, looking at the courtyard, Huizheng, the personal guard of the Lingling, was entangled with Dongzi, Jiu'er did not stop it, but ordered, "Catch this assassin, he hurt the princess." β
Assassin?
Dongzi glanced at Jiu'er sarcastically.
Are they in such a hurry to turn against the customer?
This is the territory of their Baili Guoan Prince, and the invasion is them, not themselves.
The sword in Dongzi's hand was even more powerful, and his moves were fierce, but it was also measured and did not hurt the important parts of the guards' bodies.
"Stop-" The two voices sounded at the same time, Ling Ling only put on her clothes, not even her hair was curled, she stood at the door of the room and looked at Dongzi coldly, and stopped her guards. And under the gate of the courtyard, Baili Huaqing, who rushed to hear the news, also stopped Dongzi at the same time.
"Master." Dongzi jumped and landed in front of Baili Huaqing.
Baili Huaqing raised his hand and intercepted his words, "Dongzi, do you know what you're doing?" β
Dongzi turned his head and glared at Lingling with an angry face, and handed the small porcelain bottle in his arms into Baili Huaqing's hand, "Master, yesterday Dongzi saw Princess Lingling pour powder into Guling Lake, she must have been poisoned, so many people will vomit and diarrhea." β
Baili Huaqing glanced at the small porcelain bottle in Dongzi's hand, and raised his eyes to look at the pale Lingling, "Princess Lingling, what's going on?" I believe in Xiaoyu's eye for making friends, so you'd better explain it clearly. β
If the mastermind behind the scenes is really charming, then she has been in [Jingchu Valley] for so long, and she won't wait until this time to do it.
Qian Ling said word by word: "There is nothing to explain. β
Dongzi listened, and was angry, "Master, have you seen it, she is admitting." β
Baili Huaqing frowned, "Princess Lingling, you should know what this thing represents?" β
Silent spirits.
"Dongzi, send the porcelain vase to Rong Zhi and let him see what was once in it?" Baili Huaqing looked at the panic in his eyes, and he was even more sure of some guesses in his heart.
It wasn't the Spirit's doing, but she probably knew what was going on?
"Princess Lingling, I'm going out to investigate this matter, and I'm going to see how the people are doing. Xiaoyu and Tiger Girl, I'll leave it to you. These words were meaningful, and the soul trembled, could he see something?
However, even if he doesn't confess, she will protect Xia Xiaoyu and Hu Niu.
I hope that the royal brother will not come here, and I hope that the imperial brother is not the idea.
"Good! Leave this matter to me, don't worry! Qian Ling nodded solemnly, Baili Huaqing breathed a sigh of relief, turned back to the [Jing Yuan] to remind Rushuang, and also asked Kang Lin to secretly send more people to protect the [Jing Yuan].
Baili Huaqing left with his front foot, and Qian Ling came in with the guards.
Xia Xiaoyu listened to the sound outside, and when she was suspicious, she saw Ling Ling coming in, and hurriedly asked: "Ling Ling, there seem to be a lot of people outside, is this what happened?" β
Ling Ling sat on the edge of the bed, smiled, and said, "Nothing happened, Baili Huaqing just let people move things into the study." What do you think? Are you feeling better today? β
"I'm as strong as an ox, and I don't have anything. It's just that Rong Zhi said it too strictly, and Baili Huaqing didn't let me get out of bed at all. Xia Xiaoyu's little face wrinkled, stretched out his hand and shook Ling Ling's arm, and said, "Ling Ling, let's go see the tiger girl together, okay?" β
Qian Ling remembered Baili Huaqing's advice and shook his head slightly.
"I want to go see the tiger girl, okay?"
The spirit still shook his head.
Xia Xiaoyu didn't give up, and continued to coax Ling Ling, "Ling Ling, why don't we go to the kitchen together to make delicious snacks and send them to Hu Niu, okay?" β
"You can't get out of bed yet, and you can't go to the kitchen. If you have something you want to eat, tell me and I'll have someone make it for you. I have a cook underneath, and although the craftsmanship is not as good as yours, it is not bad. As soon as he changed his old appearance as a foodie, his eyes lit up when he heard about eating, which made Xia Xiaoyu suspicious.
She looked Ling Ling up and down, and her eyes were fixed on Ling Ling's eyes, "Ling Ling, are you hiding something from me?" β
"Nope!"
"Really?"
"Really!" Qian Ling gradually felt a little weak, so he got up and poured a glass of water for Xia Xiaoyu, taking the opportunity to restrain his feelings.
Xia Xiaoyu took the water, and the more she looked at it, the more suspicious she became, "Ling Ling, we are friends, if you hide something from me, this is very hurtful to friendship." β
Sure enough, after hearing her words, Ling Ling's eyes flickered a few times, and Xia Xiaoyu became even more determined, "Say it!" If you don't say it, it's the same if I go out to ask, and if I really want to get out of bed, you can't stop me. β
Crunchββ
Rong Zhi pushed the door in, looking tired, he held the medicine in his hand, walked to the bed and handed it to Xia Xiaoyu, "Miss Xia, drink the medicine, drink the medicine, go to accompany the tiger girl, just now Miss Rushuang has already cleaned up the soft couch in the tiger girl's room." β
With their separate protection, it is better to bring them together, so that everyone can feel at ease.
Xia Xiaoyu took the medicine bowl, drank it in a few gulps, she didn't feel as bitter as in the past with this medicine today, a smile bloomed at the corner of her mouth, and she looked up at Rong Zhi, "Rong Zhi, you can just call me Xiaoyu in the future, don't be a girl, it's weird." β
Rong Zhi smiled and nodded, took an osmanthus candy in one hand to her, and took the empty medicine bowl in the other, "Okay!" I know. β
"Doctor Rong, Baili Huaqing told me that he couldn't let her get out of bed." Ling Ling was very worried about Xia Xiaoyu's body.
Rong Zhi shook his head, "It's okay!" Since I dared to let her get out of bed, I was sure that nothing would happen. Princess Lingling, you should also go and see the tiger girl, she was still shouting bored. β
Hearing this, Ling Ling nodded, and reached out to personally help Xia Xiaoyu get out of bed.
"I still have something to do, so I'll go out first." Rong Zhi took the empty bowl out of the room, Xiao Wu stood at the door, and when he saw him come out, he immediately greeted him, and said in a low voice: "Childe, there are not enough medicinal materials." β
Rong Zhi walked towards the courtyard gate and said, "Let's go out and talk." β
He didn't want Xia Xiaoyu to know that the lake water was poisoned.
Xiao Wu hurriedly chased after him.
"Childe, just now Prince An's people reported that all the pharmacies do not have ghost needle herbs, and the medicine for diarrhea cannot be matched."
Rong Zhi said as he walked: "You go find someone to help immediately, let's go dig up the grass." β
"Yes, Childe." Xiao Wu hurried away.
Rong Zhi walked out of the gate and asked Comber to help find some people.
Rong Zhi picked the herbs, let people take them to every village where the disease occurred, let people dig according to them, and passed on the decoction method. He stayed alone in the [Pharmacy] for a day, and it wasn't until it was dark that he walked out with a tired face.
He asked Rushuang to take medicine to purify the water of Guling Lake, and now Guling Lake is heavily guarded, and people who are not Baili Huaqing can't get close to the water source at all. The empty porcelain bottle that Dongzi brought in the morning, he had already checked, and it was not filled with medicine, but flour.
Although this poison was not poured into the spirit, as Baili Huaqing guessed, Rong Zhi also thought that this matter was a little strange. Why did the people get poisoned when they sprinkled flour? Why would the spirit sprinkle flour when it was fine?
All of this proves that there is something to do with the Soul.
Perhaps, she didn't mean to hurt anyone, but she must have known who poisoned her?
γJingyuanγ
Ling Ling was absent-minded all day long, and Rushuang also had a solemn face, but the two of them were of the same voice, no matter how many times Xia Xiaoyu asked, they all said that nothing happened.
Tiger Girl looked out the window from time to time, it was dark outside, and her little face was overflowing with anticipation.
"Mother, why hasn't my father come back yet? Did he say where he was going today? β
Xia Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Your father has something to do, so he shouldn't come back so early." Saying this, her eyes glanced at the Ling Ling silently, and sure enough, when she saw the Ling Ling's expression, she instantly became nervous, but she soon returned to normal.
What's going on today?
Everyone seems to be hiding something from themselves.
"I'll go to the courtyard and I'll be back with you later." The room was too depressing, she was not a person who could hide things in her heart, in the face of Hu Niu's questions from time to time, Xia Xiaoyu's visiting gaze, she had the urge to confess and be lenient every minute.
She knew that she couldn't tell!
She was very worried, worried that the war would ignite, and that she would become a stranger with Xia Xiaoyu and turn friends into enemies.
This is not what she wants to see!
In the middle of the moon, Baili Huaqing and Kang Lin, Dongzi hurriedly came back from outside, and when Qian Ling saw them, he reflexively stood up, and the nervous expression on his face swept by.
"You're back!"
Xia Xiaoyu looked at a few of them, and couldn't bear to ask after holding back for a day, "Can any of you sue me, what happened today?" Do you know that the more you don't say it, the more worried and suspicious I become. β
Ling Ling glanced at Xia Xiaoyu guiltily.
Baili Huaqing stretched out his hand and wiped his face, making himself look less tired and less dusty. He tore the corners of his mouth, walked over with a smile, and took Xia Xiao's hand, "I'm sorry!" Don't worry anymore, everything has been resolved, and there will be no more trouble. β
A qiΔ has been resolved?
The heart of the soul was pounding.
One qiΔ has been solved, what does this mean exactly?
Dongzi silently watched the change in Ling Ling's expression, and took all her nervousness into her eyes, and at this moment, the guilt that had been hidden in her heart for a day disappeared in an instant. This matter really has something to do with the Lingling, otherwise, she wouldn't have such an expression.
"Can you tell me what's going on now?" Xia Xiaoyu looked at him and asked.
Baili Huaqing nodded, with a stern expression on his face, "Doctor Qin sneaked back, he threw medicine into Guling Lake, but, I don't understand, why did he only put some poison and immortal medicine?" β
"What about others?"
"I committed suicide by taking poison."
"What? Suicide by poisoning? "Intuition told Xia Xiaoyu, this matter is not simple, it is said that he has worked so hard, it is impossible to just make people vomit and diarrhea? He also died because of this, why on earth?
Gently bowing his head, Baili Huaqing let out a long sigh, "Fortunately, Rong Zhi is back, otherwise, I really don't know how to clean up these messes." Raising his eyes to see the tiger girl who was already asleep on the bed, Baili Huaqing's heart finally calmed down.
Home is the harbor of the soul.
Men also need a harbor, a home with children, women, love, and warmth.
"Rushuang, I'll leave it to you here." Baili Huaqing confessed, bent down and hugged Xia Xiaoyu, "Let's go back to the room to rest." β
Xia Xiaoyu blushed shyly, "You let me down, everyone will watch it." β
"It's okay! Let them envy it. Baili Huaqing hooked his lips and smiled, turned to look at Ling Ling, and said, "Princess Ling Ling, thank you so much today." β
Ling Ling shook his head ashamedly, "No thanks! I'm tired too, and now that things have been dealt with, I'll go back and rest first. β
Baili Huaqing nodded.
Xia Xiaoyu hurriedly instructed Jiu'er, "Jiu'er take care of the princess." β
"Yes, Miss Xia." Jiu'er blessed her body and hurriedly went to chase after her. When she chased out the door, she saw Dongzi leaving with the spirit in her arms, "Princess......"
"I'm fine! Don't chase. Jiu'er, you wait for me in the courtyard. The voice of the soul became quieter and quieter.
Jiu'er had no choice but to take the guards back to the [Lotus Courtyard].
T
