The absence of Shen Xingwan had no impact on the hunting conference, and it still started lively.
Qinghong opened the way with money and personally took the clothes out to see a nearby doctor.
Shen Xingwan didn't come back until he finished lunch, and said with a not-so-good look on his face, "The doctor said there is no problem."
"Sure enough, it won't be found out so easily." Shen Xingwan said as expected.
Qinghong was worried and washed all the clothes that Shen Xingwan brought with her in hot water several times and put them on a fire rack to dry.
In the afternoon, the eldest lady, who usually didn't care about anything else, came over in person with two maids.
"Madam, please sit down." Shen Xingwan stood up to greet her.
The eldest lady looked her over and said, "You don't look very sick?"
"I'm probably just tired from the long journey and I've recovered." Shen Xingwan said.
The eldest lady sat down by the window, "Weren't you still very lively and energetic at the banquet last night?"
The eldest lady didn't believe her lies. Although she had not taken care of things in the past few years, she was once the head wife of the Shen family. How could she be a fuel-efficient lamp?
"Tell me what happened."
Shen Xingwan hesitated for a moment, and quickly made a decision in his mind. There was nothing that couldn't be said, and the eldest lady would not harm her.
Shen Xingwan told the story in a low voice.
The eldest lady asked, "Where are the clothes?"
Qinghong glanced at Shen Xingwan and saw that she had no objection, so she took out her clothes.
"Muxiang, go and take a look." The eldest lady said.
A completely inconspicuous girl walked out from behind the eldest lady, took the clothes and inspected them carefully.
"Can you please sister to get me a basin of water?"
Qinghong responded and went to fetch a basin of water and put it on the table.
The maid named Muxiang also went back to the yard where the eldest wife lived and brought a small bottle over.
"Slave, can you put your clothes in the water?" Mu Xiang raised her head and asked Shen Xingwan.
"Okay." Shen Xingwan nodded.
Mu Xiang put the clothes in the water, then put a few drops of transparent water in the bottle, and then retreated behind the eldest lady.
The eldest lady said calmly, "Just wait."
Then he looked at Shen Xingwan curiously, "You are really a troublemaker. Who wants to deliberately kill you?"
Shen Xingwan said with an innocent face, "I want to know too."
The eldest lady chuckled twice, knowing that she wasn't telling the truth, so she didn't ask further.
The amazing thing is that after about half an hour, the clothes in the clear water exuded traces of green.
"What is this?" Qinghong asked in surprise.
Mu Xiang took out a silver needle and tested it, "This is Ran Zui."
"What is that?" Shen Xingwan asked curiously.
"This is a secret medicine passed down from the small country in the Western Region. Just like its name, once an animal is exposed to it, it will act like a drunk, going crazy and irritable and losing control, hence the name Ranzui." Mu Xiang explained.
Basically, it was similar to what Shen Xingwan guessed, it was to use force to induce the animals to go crazy.
"You're quite ruthless." The eldest lady chuckled, "It seems that you have provoked a very special person. This kind of medicine is not easy to get."
Although the eldest lady intervened, she didn't seem to have any intention of handling the gift, and left quickly with the others.
Shen Xingwan looked at her back, it was indeed not easy to find this secret medicine casually.
"Miss, why don't you send a message to Chanyi to come over?" Qinghong said worriedly.
Although Shen Xingwan felt that the other party could not use the same method twice, he did not stop Qinghong from sending the message.
The first day of the hunting conference seemed to be uneventful and everything seemed to be going well.
Dinner was quickly served in Shen Xingwan's room. As soon as he took a bite, he heard some maids chatting in the yard.
"I heard that something happened at the hunting ground. It seems like someone died."
"Who died?"
"It seems something happened to Miss Xie..."
Shen Xingwan couldn't eat anymore. Qinghong whispered, "Slave, please go out and inquire?"
Shen Xingwan stood up directly, "I'd better go take a look."
Why did something suddenly happen to Xie Zhuohua?
As a result, as soon as he walked out of the courtyard, he saw the eldest girl in Qi Zhiwei's room walking hurriedly with red eyes, and met Shen Xingwan head-on.
"What happened?" Shen Xingwan frowned.
Mo Ju said with a choked voice, "The young lady was surprised and kept having fever and convulsions. She is usually the best with the young lady. Can the young lady go and comfort the young lady?"
"Qinghong goes to Sister Xie's place to take a look." Shen Xingwan said, "Dongqing is coming with me."
Shen Xingwan sighed. It was indeed a troubled time, and it was only the first day that he was so restless.
Mo Ju led the way, and Shen Xingwan followed. After all, the garden near the hunting ground was quite large, and there were many people coming this time. She didn't know exactly where Qi Zhiwei lived.
As we walked, there were fewer and fewer people around, and the lights became dimmer and dimmer.
"Zhiwei lives here?" Shen Xingwan asked.
"My lady's status is not high enough. The location of the courtyard I was assigned is relatively remote. Please be more considerate of me."
Mo Ju walked faster and faster as she spoke, as if she was rushing to be reincarnated.
However, Shen Xingwan stopped and stared up at the front, which seemed to be a bamboo forest, looking dark and dark.
A dark moonlit night with high winds is perfect for murder and arson.
Dongqing immediately took out the soft sword from her waist and became alert.
Mo Ju finally noticed something was wrong, stopped and turned around, her face was frighteningly pale, and she asked in a trembling voice, "Miss, why did you stop? The lady is still waiting for you?"
Shen Xingwan looked at her coldly, "Are you really going to ask Zhiwei to ask you to come?"
"Of course." Mo Ju pointed at the bamboo forest opposite, "Go through there and you'll get to where the lady lives."
Shen Xingwan looked at her expressionlessly and didn't say anything for a while. Mo Ju's legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.
Shen Xingwan suddenly raised his hand and saw a short arrow shooting towards the bamboo forest with a silver light in the night.
This is the sleeve arrow specially made for her by Mo Beichen.
"Walk!"
Almost at the same time as the arrow was sent out, Shen Xingwan and Dongqing turned around and hurried back.
"咻咻咻..."
Three arrows from the bamboo forest shot back quickly, heading straight towards them.
"ah!"
Shen Xingwan, who was running away, heard a rapid scream and couldn't help but look back.
Mo Ju was pierced through the heart by a sharp arrow and slowly fell down.
Shen Xingwan and Dongqing quickened their pace and quickly turned back to where there were people, but the people behind them didn't catch up.
"It is indeed a trap." Shen Xingwan whispered, "It seems that there are quite a few people who want my life."
Just know what it is for.
She would shoot an arrow just to test whether there was an ambush in the bamboo forest. Sure enough, the other party was ready to lure her in.
"Rather than killing you, I seem to want to capture you alive." Dongqing said calmly, "There are archery masters in the woods."
If it was for Shen Xingwan's life, they wouldn't leave so easily.
