Li Xu quickly shuttled through the woods. He had used the name of a descendant of the Li family to gain experience in the army, and he had some experience in tracking this matter. What's more, Song Chengxuan had just left, so it would be easier to find him.
Sure enough, we saw several figures not far away, and Song Chengxuan was among them.
There was a faint smell of blood.
Li Xu walked a few steps quickly and saw a man nailed to a tree trunk. One of the man's arms was cut off and his clothes were soaked in blood.
Li Xu frowned. Song Chengxuan had already interrogated that person and must have gotten what he wanted from that person.
"Master Song," Li Xu stepped forward, "this man..."
Song Chengxuan turned his head: "This is a dead soldier of the Zhang family. He must have come out of the capital to deliver a message. When I wanted to capture him, I used a harsher blow and he was already dead."
Li Xu's eyes fell on the dead man. The dead man's head moved slightly, obviously he was still alive.
Don't wait for Li Xu to speak.
Song Chengxuan pulled out the long sword from the dead man's body. The dead man's body lost support and was about to fall off the tree trunk. Song Chengxuan's hand moved again, and the tip of the sword pierced the dead man's chest.
Blood spurted out.
This time he was really dead.
Song Chengxuan walked forward: "I will have the body sent to the Yamen."
When Li Xu saw this, he couldn't help but admire Song Chengxuan. After he discovered his whereabouts, Song Chengxuan did not cover up and killed people in front of him.
He is so courageous, no wonder he has such a high reputation in the military.
So what if he kills someone? Is it possible that the court would punish Mr. Song for such a trivial matter? The most important thing is that Mr. Song has already achieved his goal.
Just when the two were about to pass each other, Li Xu suddenly said: "Did you get it? Is it the antidote or the poison pill? Mr. Song has killed someone, so he is not going to hand it over to the court."
Song Chengxuan continued to walk forward.
Li Xu continued: "I hope Lord Song can find an antidote for Miss Xu."
Song Chengxuan narrowed his eyes slightly. Li Xu knew what he was doing. Was he caring about Qing Huan when he said this?
Song Chengxuan didn't want to talk to Li Xu, but he didn't know why he heard his own voice.
"Master Li, do your duty well."
Internal affairs.
Li Xu thought about the marriage negotiations between the Song family and the Xu family.
Yes, why did he come here, and why did Song Chengxuan come here for his future wife?
Li Xu stood there and watched Song Chengxuan's guards take away the body.
In the end, only he and the dark red blood stains were left in the woods.
After a long while, Li Xu walked out of the woods.
"Master Li," there were already subordinates waiting for him on the official road, "where have you been?"
"Has anyone been caught?" Li Xu asked.
"Caught him," the subordinate pursed his lips, "but someone caught him before we did, and now he has to be sent to the Yamen."
Someone is still one step ahead.
Li Xu was about to ask who that person was when he heard someone laughing and saying, "This is the first time I have seen so many gold cakes. Where did these things come from? Did you steal the treasury?"
I don't want to talk about it now. I will go to the prison later and I will interrogate you thoroughly.
I have long disliked you. If someone hadn’t had a fight with you, I would have to stretch my muscles."
Xu Qing'an was riding on the horse, looking at the tied up shopkeeper, and kept hitting him with the wooden stick in his hand: "You are still babbling when your mouth is gagged. What are you talking about? When you arrive at the Yamen, Mr. Huang will interrogate you.
, if you dare to pretend to be dead, I’ll see if I don’t beat you until you have teeth all over the floor.”
Xu Qing'an straightened his back, but his twisted and triumphant look made him look like a silly son of a squire driving pigs into the city.
Li Xu looked at the scene in front of him.
"Hey, isn't this Mr. Li?" Xu Qing'an raised his hand to Li Xu on the horse, "What a coincidence, Mr. Li is also out of the city?"
After saying that, Xu Qingan raised his head and looked at the sky: "Master Li, do you have anything to do quickly? Do you have to rush back to the city before dark?"
The subordinates next to Li Xu frowned: "Sir, he is clearly..." He clearly took the credit, but still wanted to ridicule them.
Li Xu stood there, and suddenly the corners of his mouth curved, and a smile appeared on his face.
Xu Qinghuan, when she appeared, he felt inexplicably that she understood him very well. In her eyes, he could clearly see his own shadow reflected in them.
After experiencing so many things, his suspicions seemed to be constantly confirmed.
She can always get the upper hand in front of him.
But this time, she lost. She must not have expected that he did not stop the merchant at all, but followed Song Chengxuan into the woods.
In her mind, he may be a person who only seeks profit, and he will disappoint her this time.
Xu Qing'an was slightly surprised when he saw Li Xu's appearance. Why was Li Xu so happy when he obviously didn't get anything? Could it be that he was so angry that he was stupid?
When his sister came back from the palace, he wanted to tell her about this matter. She really thought highly of Li Xu. He told them to be careful about Li Xu, but Li Xu didn't show up at all.
…
Inside Kunning Palace.
Mr. Liao carefully removed his fingers from Queen Yu's wrist.
Queen Yu looked calm: "Sir, if you have anything to say, just say it!"
Mrs. Yu clutched the handkerchief nervously. The wound on her forehead had not yet healed, but because she was worried about her daughter, she requested to enter the palace to see the Queen. The Emperor was particularly gracious and allowed their mother and daughter to reunite.
Seeing that Mr. Liao looked heavy and silent, Mrs. Yu couldn't help but ask: "Sir, how is the Queen's condition?"
Mr. Liao stood up and knelt down to salute.
"Sir, there is no need for this," Queen Yu said, "I just want to hear the truth."
Mr. Liao sighed: "The queen's poison has penetrated into the internal organs, and the common people's medical skills are shallow and they can't think of a way to cure her."
When Mrs. Yu heard this, her last glimmer of hope was suddenly shattered. Her face was full of sadness, and tears burst into her eyes. In order not to cry, she picked up the handkerchief and covered her mouth tightly.
Queen Yu seemed very calm. She gently pulled Madam Yu's sleeve: "Don't worry, mother, it's good that my daughter has been redressed. You can't ask for too much, otherwise the Buddha will be disgusted."
After saying this, Queen Yu looked at Xu Qinghuan again: "Mr. Liao, please diagnose Miss Xu's pulse now. I only hope that Miss Xu's illness can be cured."
Mr. Liao nodded.
Xu Qinghuan sat on the brocade stool and stretched out his wrist. Mr. Liao once again placed his fingers on his pulse.
Xu Qinghuan turned to look at Queen Yu. Queen Yu nodded slightly to her, as if to appease her emotions. Queen Yu's concerned expression made Xu Qinghuan feel even more sad.
Mr. Liao stroked his beard and finally nodded: "Ms. Xu's poisoning is not serious. Let me think of ways to treat it slowly. Even if it cannot be completely cured, I can try to eliminate the poison. Fortunately, there is still plenty of time. If you can know
What are these poisons...then we will be more sure."
