Xie Fengyue's face showed no pretense of confusion: "Why do you dislike it?"
Is it possible that she, Xie Fengyue, is still the delicate girl in the high pavilion who doesn't even want to go out and get her shoes and socks dirty when it rains?
She is not!
She was a girl who could safely travel from Chen County to Lingnan with only three masters and servants. When she climbed Qishan Mountain, the mud on the mountain was up to her ankles. She took off her shoes and socks and went down to push the cart barefoot.
Can you still dislike this bit of dirt?
Ye Wan took a deep look at Xie Fengyue and then said calmly: "I know why the girl wants to make oleander."
She didn't mention it, and Xie Fengyue almost forgot that she had asked her to make poison.
"I will give the medicine to you when I return home tomorrow." Ye Wan said.
Xie Fengyue was silent for a long time before asking: "So you made it a long time ago and never gave it to me?"
Ye Wan's face was expressionless: "The girl didn't ask why I gave it to you. The medicine is extremely poisonous. If it is not used to save lives, it is harmful to others. Wouldn't I become the executioner?"
"I didn't say anything just now, why did I give it to you again?"
Ye Wan crushed the plaster in the medicine basin and seemed to answer or murmur: "I just hope I didn't make a mistake in my bet."
Xie Fengyue didn't know how to respond to her. She simply joked: "Come on, today the Japanese princess is having fun with the people. Please teach me how to apply a perfect plaster."
It was rare for her to mention the title of Princess, and she did so just to relax the atmosphere.
Ye Wan is a smart person, she also arched her eyebrows and said cooperatively: "Then I am really honored today."
Xie Fengyue stayed here until the sun set, and then the branches began to rush.
When night falls in Pingkangfang, the lanterns are hung high, and the identity of the people coming and going is almost impossible to check, and even the broken branches are worried.
Xie Fengyue obviously thought of this, and after giving Hua Rui a few words to help, she got on the bullock cart and returned home.
In the evening, bullock carts drive steadily along the main street.
Suddenly several children rushed out from the side and ran after the ball. Li Xiaobao had quick eyesight and quick hands to rein in the reins, but the old scalper got stubborn and turned a corner directly into an alley. He let the whip in Li Xiaobao's hand " "Pap-pap-pap" hits it, and it just gasps and doesn't turn around.
The green bricks and white walls on the roadside in the alley are mottled, and moss has covered the corners. In this weak light, the setting sun cannot completely penetrate the alley, leaving only a shallow afterglow. The air here is even duller, and a few lizards are motionless at the base of the wall.
Several dusty windows were closed tightly, and faint voices could be heard between the windows.
Xie Fengyue glanced at Li Xiaobao, who was still in a stalemate with the stubborn cow, and said: "Someone lives in this alley, so just go through it."
Li Xiaobao stretched his neck and glanced at the endless alley, hesitating: "This alley in Fangshi is not very safe. Why don't you go back to the drug store first? I will go around here and pick you up again. It won't take long." ”
Xie Fengyue thought for a moment: "It makes sense, maybe some drunkards and thieves are sleeping inside."
Ever since, Xie Fengyue and Zhezhi returned to the medicine shop along the same route.
The two of them waited at the drug store for at least two sticks of incense, but they didn't see Li Xiaobao driving there, so they couldn't help but feel worried.
Xie Fengyue waved to Hu Er, who was carrying water not far away.
He immediately put down the pole on his shoulders and trotted over: "What do you want from the lady?"
"How soon will your off-duty brothers be back here?"
Although Hu Er was the only one guarding the medicine shop during the day, Ye Wan still wanted to be cautious and asked his brothers to go back to the medicine shop in Pingkangfang after finishing their errands at night.
One is to prevent them and others from being squeezed out by the guards in the Princess's Mansion, and the other is because Pingkangfang is not very safe at night. During the afternoon chat, she mentioned this arrangement to Xie Fengyue, which made her ask this question.
Hu Er's head was drooped, still looking resigned: "As for Miss Jun, the brothers are scheduled to come back at this time. Do you want to check on them? Then I will go outside and wait."
Hu Er is also afraid of his brothers, who come back disheveled after leaving their errands one by one. If he is caught by the girl, wouldn't it be disrespectful? He knew how much the nobles valued etiquette and manners.
Seeing his eyes rolling, Xie Fengyue simply explained: "When they come back, you take them there."
Zhe Zhi continued: "After leaving this shop, go straight to the right. At the entrance of the third alley, the window of the house at the entrance of the alley still has faded cutouts."
"Well, that's the alley. You go back to the drug store along that alley and look for the guard who was with me today."
Hu Er was stunned for a moment, and then he agreed.
Xie Fengyue didn't have much worries in her heart. She knew Li Xiaobao's ability. Even if he encountered a group of drunkards and ruffians, he could easily deal with them. He was just afraid that he would be entangled by the young ladies along the road who came out to solicit customers. .
Another time of burning incense has passed, and the sky outside has completely darkened. Xie Fengyue can clearly hear the noise in Pingkangfang in the closed shop. As time goes by, Xie Fengyue also begins to Confidence to the point of worry.
In her opinion, Li Xiaobao was more than just a coachman and a palace guard.
He was her friend every step of the way.
There was a loud banging sound at the closed drug store.
"Open the door, hurry up!"
Hua Rui quickly moved the door panel open, and what she saw was Hu Er carrying a man covered in blood on his back with an anxious look on his face.
"He was slashed and thrown into the alley next door. Hurry, there was a very deep wound on his chest."
Zhe Zhi bit her lip, the color on her face had faded. She rushed to the backyard in a panic and shouted: "Doctor Ye, help me! Doctor Ye!"
There was another burst of chaos.
Xie Fengyue held the handle of the fan and asked Ye Wan who had already come out of the room: "Is he seriously injured?"
Ye Wan shook the needle and thread on her hand: "It's just that he bled a little too much. He looks scary and can't move at all. He is strong and will be fine in a few days."
Zhe Zhi stamped his feet: "It's been sewn and patched, but it's still fine."
Xie Fengyue actually meant the same thing. In the eyes of these doctors, as long as the person can't die immediately, it doesn't matter.
Ye Wan shook her sore neck and explained: "The person who cut him didn't want to kill him. Judging from the edge of the knife, there were more people on the other side. Li Xiaobao was knocked unconscious again, so he suffered so much for nothing. Knife.”
Seeing the tired look on her face, Xie Fengyue also stopped asking: "I will stay here today. When he wakes up tomorrow, I will ask him again."
The expression on Ye Wan's face became unusually vivid: "There are only three rooms here. Hu Er and his brothers live in one big room. Hua Rui and I share the same room. If you sleep here, do I want to sleep with Hua Rui?" Crowded together? I don’t want that girl talking in her sleep at night and hitting people!”
"Then you sleep with me." Xie Fengyue made the final decision.
