Chapter 203 Injured
At this time, Song Anning was led by Qingxuan to the outside of the inn.
I saw the body just lying there, without even a piece of white cloth. The people in the embroidery department hated him so much that the shopkeeper and waiter in the inn didn't dare to come close. It was so lonely and scary.
Qingxuan originally thought that Song Anning would also be frightened.
However, she saw that her expression was as usual. After walking over, she first felt the man's breath to make sure that he was dead, then opened his clothes and started groping around him.
Qingxuan walked behind her and sighed helplessly: "Miss Song, you don't have to look for him anymore. We have already searched him all over. There is really no antidote."
Song Anning didn't answer him.
After searching around, she finally went around to his feet and took off his shoes.
Qingxuan's eyebrows moved.
Song Anning was a girl, and her fingers were thin and white, like onions. When he held the dirty and worn shoes on the corpse, he felt a strong sense of disobedience, which made him want to stop him. .
But before he could make any move, Song Anning had already taken off her shoes.
She held the corpse's ankles and looked closely at his feet.
After a while, he said: "He is not a farmer, he is lying."
"what?"
Qingxuan was shocked.
Earlier this man came to Pei Qingyan to complain, clearly saying that he was a tenant farmer of Huang Yuan's wife's family and should be working in the fields every day.
But Song Anning carefully observed his hands and feet. Although there were calluses on his hands and feet, the calluses were mostly at the tiger's mouth, and the calluses on his feet were not like those produced by farmers.
Because people who grow crops often have to go to the fields and take off their shoes when going to the fields. This causes their feet to be often stained with pollution, but if they are washed and put on, they are not particularly dirty, but they are often soaked in water. In water, it is easy to produce many cracks after drying.
But the insteps of this man's feet were extremely smooth, and the calluses on the soles of his feet were only caused by walking too much, not caused by blisters.
Looking at his figure, although he is also strong and strong, his back is straight. People who grow crops know that whether they are planting, transplanting rice or harvesting wheat, they have to bend down and work. Over time, over the years, the back will become weak. I feel a little hunchback unconsciously.
To sum up, this man is not a sharecropper at all, he is an assassin!
Coming to a conclusion, Song Anning said: "Go and count the people your master has offended in daily life, and what kind of people can afford to support such a dead soldier assassin, and who has the conditions and motives to do so. If you find these who assassinated your master, you may be able to find out the real culprit who poisoned him and save your master from danger."
When Qingxuan heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he was seeing fog through clouds, and he said in a deep voice: "I'll go check it out immediately."
When you're done, leave.
After taking two steps, he realized something and turned around, "My lord..."
"Don't worry, I'm here, your family will be fine."
Song Anning said calmly.
Her body is obviously very thin, as if a gust of wind can blow her down, but when she says these words, she is so great, like a big tree, which can protect people from the wind and rain.
Qingxuan's face darkened, he bowed to her without saying another word and then left.
Song Anning ordered people to guard the body and then returned to the room upstairs.
After taking the Purple Gold Pill, Pei Qingyan's complexion improved a little, but only a little. His lips were still blue and his brows were furrowed. It was obvious that he was feeling uncomfortable.
Song Anning's heart couldn't help but ache.
She didn't know why she was heartbroken.
Even though she was a close friend, she had done everything she could to help the other person. Logically speaking, she should not feel heartache anymore, but now when she saw Pei Qingyan lying on the bed, unconscious, she actually had an urge, I wish I could replace the other person and not let him suffer so much.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for the doctor to come.
After diagnosis and treatment, it was discovered that although the poison in Pei Qingyan was ferocious, it was not profound.
Soon, the doctor detoxified him.
Although the poison has been cured, it is impossible to say that there is no impact at all after this experience.
Pei Qingyan sat on the bedside and looked weakly at the woman in front of him.
"I must have scared you." He smiled weakly.
Song Anning blew the hot soup for him and glanced at him, "No."
She would never admit that she was scared.
As if he could see what she was thinking, Pei Qingyan chuckled and said, "Okay, if you say no, I won't."
Song Anning handed him the cold medicine.
Pei Qingyan took it and drank it in one gulp. Song Anning saw that he was frowning in pain and couldn't help but laugh. Only then did she realize that he was also a mortal with a mortal body.
"I thought you weren't afraid of hardship, but I didn't expect you were."
As she spoke, she brought a plate of preserves to him.
Pei Qingyan picked up a candied fruit and threw it into his mouth. As he chewed it, he frowned and said, "I am a human being and not a god. How can I not be afraid of suffering? But who prepared this medicine? It is too bitter. It is worse than what I used to have." Anyone who drinks it will be bitter.”
Next to him, Qingxuan said angrily: "Good medicine is bitter. My lord, you'd better be patient. We are going to Beijing soon. You hope that after entering Beijing, the emperor will see how weak you are." Do you look like you are lingering on your last breath?"
Pei Qingyan suddenly froze.
He glared at Qingxuan and said angrily: "Go, go, why are you lingering? Can you speak? If you can't speak, go down and read more. Don't embarrass me here."
Song Anning couldn't help but laugh.
Fortunately, after drinking the medicine, Pei Qingyan's mental state was obviously much better than before.
She originally thought that if there was nothing important, she would rest here for a few more days at the inn and wait until Pei Qingyan's injuries healed before heading to Beijing.
However, Pei Qingyan shook his head.
When it came to business, his face no longer had the previous cynicism, and his handsome eyebrows were lightly frowned, with a touch of worry.
"The Emperor doesn't usually come to me easily. I usually find out some information and take the initiative to go to the palace to find him. Now that he has summoned me back to the capital urgently, something big must have happened. I must go back as soon as possible."
Song Anning choked.
Seeing Pei Qingyan's determined look, she suddenly felt a little unworthy of him.
She could see that Pei Qingyan was very loyal to the emperor.
It would be fine if the emperor always treated him very well. At worst, it would be a story about the emperor and his ministers that everyone admired, but in fact it was not the case.
Although she didn't know the reason, she knew very well that in the previous life, the emperor killed Pei Qingyan and cut him into pieces.
That is a cruel death penalty that even the most vicious and rebellious thief cannot have.
How much hatred and resentment must there be for the emperor to treat him like this.
Song Anning was silent for a while, and finally sighed.
"Okay, if you want to go, I won't stop you, but you sit in the carriage obediently, and I will ask them to drive the carriage slower. Although you are injured on your shoulder, you should not be careless, in case one of you gets a bad knock. If it hits you and the wound becomes more serious, then you will suffer."
