Chapter 150 Are you poisoned?

Xue Xiao suddenly became quiet, and the corners of his mouth that were raised seemed to be pulled down by a thousand-pound weight.

The heart that had just floated to the clouds was dragged back to the bottom of the sea in an instant.

She still wanted to leave.

Xue Xiao opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but his throat felt like there was a piece of coptis in it, and his mouth was filled with bitterness as soon as he opened it.

Xue Xiao took a deep breath, he knew what he should say: The sword is given to the hero, the hairpin is given to the beauty, if you like it, you don’t have to return it, you can keep it. And other ambiguous and thought-provoking words. Nonsense.

But he didn't want to say it.

Don't want to say a word.

To Shan Yue, such words would be frivolous, abrupt and offensive.

Xue Xiao tightened his arms, revealing the slender and strong thin muscles on his forearms, and he held the girl tightly in his arms.

You have to say something, right?

"Today I am meeting Jing'an. Apart from forcing me to observe mourning, do you have any other requests?"

Xue Xiao chose the safest topic for Shan Yue.

Shan Yue hid the "pulling machine" and made the whole story clear. Thinking of the folded note on the table, he lowered his voice and said, ".Ding You matter."

"It's not difficult for me."

Xue Xiao said calmly, "The Xue family is weak-willed and has been coerced and bribed by others. Except for Brother Liang, everyone is trying to persuade me to quit my job. Rather than standing at the center of the storm and being watched by thousands of people, it is better to retreat bravely and quietly do things that are inconvenient on weekdays."

The clues to the Duzhou dam breach case are still hidden in the booklet stolen from Liu Hezhou.

Shan Yue leaned on Xue Xiao's shoulder, nodded silently, and said softly: "Thank you."

Then he added: "When I enter the palace, finding Shui Guang is one thing, and finding out who Qing Feng is another important matter. Don't worry, I won't let personal matters affect the overall situation."

He discovered very early on that Shanyue always followed a simple and crude logic: you need to give her everything you ask of her, and only then will she feel comfortable accepting the convenience you provide. They are clear about the distinction and will never take advantage of you.

Xue Xiao pursed his lips, and after a while, he whispered: "There is not only one rule for everything, which is barter."

"But this rule is the safest." Shan Yue still hooked her hands around Xue Xiao's neck, the girl's jade-like wrists pressed against the dark satin. The two had already walked far away, and even if the people from the Bei Mansion stood in the corridor and looked over, they couldn't see clearly whether the two were standing, standing or lying down.

But Xue Xiao didn't say to let go, and Shan Yue didn't say to stop.

Xue Xiao still held her in his arms.

The girl with slender bones and a slender figure raised her head from the man's neck, her eyes were red, bright and stubborn, and she stared at him motionlessly.

Although Shan Yue didn't say anything, all the emotions swept in like a violent storm, making people terrified and confused.

Xue Xiao would never be a deserter who avoids attention.

Instead, he went straight up to her and raised his eyebrows: "Safe? When did you become someone who plays it safe?"

He assassinated Liu Hezhou, forced Zhu to death, set up a trap to throw Xue Changfeng into the imperial prison, stole things, killed people and set fires, and did all kinds of bad things. The only thing he did was force women into prostitution and betray the country. Yet such a person always talks about "safety"?

Shanyue was speechless for a moment.

Xue Xiao raised his lips in joy: So what if she wants to leave? Once a contract is signed, it cannot be false!

"Since we have formed an alliance."

The matchmaker's appointment is also an alliance.

“We have become allies.”

Holding your hand, we are teammates. "Don't worry too much about everything. I ask you for help, you ask me for help, don't worry about everything."

As for love, if you keep owing it, won’t it come true?
There is one good thing about being a mad dog: don't get stuck in a rut, otherwise you'll either go crazy, have a seizure, or go insane.

Even if she doesn't want her mother's hairpin, isn't it now clearly on her head?

Xue Xiao hugged Shanyue, and lowered his head seemingly unintentionally, his lips just brushing Shanyue's temples, and smiled: "It's really a waste of time and energy. Instead of thinking about getting away with it, why don't we work together and finish the work as soon as possible, ma'am - don't you agree?"

It seems to be quite right.

Shanyue thought it was quite right and did not refute it.

Under the cloak, in the darkness, accompanied by the "boom boom boom" of Xue Xiao's heartbeat, Shanyue blinked and swallowed with difficulty the fishy and sweet blood that surged up - that bowl of Qianjiyin was indeed not as harmless as Jing'an said.

Since Xue Xiao had asked for a doctor in public, within half an incense stick of time, Cheng Xingyu came hurriedly with a medicine box.

When passing by the outer hall, he happened to see Xue Xiao coming out from among the flowers.

Xue Xiao called Cheng Xingyu and pretended to be indifferent: "Please, Doctor Cheng, take care of my wife. She is too weak. I brought her back from the North Palace to the South Palace without having to use any strength."

Cheng Xingyu:
He had been doing good deeds for most of his life. How could he meet a shameless mad dog when he was about to die?
Cheng Xingyu frowned and glanced at Xue Xiao, then decided not to bother with a villain and walked straight inside.

It was just a show. Shan Yue explained the whole story, then poured Cheng Xingyu a cup of warm tea and said with a smile, "Prescribe some medicine to calm the mind and gather energy to deal with it."

Cheng Xingyu looked weak, not because of the way he dressed, but because his clothes were too big, with the sleeves so wide that the wind could flow in.

After listening to Shan Yueqi's words, he was quite speechless: "Let's see how you end it!"

If the month is small, everything will be fine, but if the month is big, do you have to stuff a pillow to pretend?

Just thinking about it makes me feel that there are dangers everywhere.

Shanyue felt that Cheng Xingyu was worrying too much - when the end came, she would be dead too.

Shanyue smiled and his eyes curved.

Cheng Xingyu suddenly frowned, squinted his eyes and stared at the scarlet color inside Shanyue's eyelids, then moved his gaze to the abnormally red fingertips: "What have you taken these days?"

Shan Yue's heart skipped a beat: "No, nothing."

"wrong!"

Cheng Xingyu lowered his voice, his pale face revealed a bit of haste, and even his voice became faster: "From the bottom of the eyelids to the crescents on the fingertips, they are all red--"

He then pinched Shan Yue's hand and felt the temperature of his palm with the back of his hand: "Your palm is hot."

He turned his hand over again and pressed his fingers lightly on the meridians on his right hand: "The meridians are beating like water drops, the breath is flowing from bottom to top, from right to left, the meridians are messy and weak - you are poisoned!"

Er Niang and Evil Gardenia are outside the house! Xue Xiao is outside the hall!
Shan Yue immediately pulled his hand away and put his index finger to his lips: "Sh ...

Cheng Xingyu was puzzled: "You know?"

"Of course I know." Shan Yue pursed her lips. "I drank the medicine myself, how could I not know? The name of this medicine is 'Qian Ji Yin', I don't know where this prescription came from, but its effect is quite strange - the poisoner can use the antidote to control the time when the poison will take effect."

Cheng Xingyu looked worried: "Why do you want to drink?"

"Don't worry, it's okay."

Shan Yue made a big deal out of a small matter, and a small matter out of nothing. Zhan Mei was relieved: "Ten days later, I will take the first dose of the antidote. The next dose will be a year later. No one can tell what the situation will be like then. Anyway, they can't let me die. You can rest assured--"

Shan Yue added solemnly: "This matter is between you and me, and no one else should know about it."

Cheng Xingyu rarely gets angry, but now he felt a surge of rage rising in his chest: "Isn't Xue Xiao a high-ranking official in red and purple? How could he let you take poison!?"
