The woodshed was filled with firewood, but no movement was found. The two men in black carefully identified the house for a moment, and then made sure that nothing unusual was found in the house. Then they returned to the yard and climbed over the wall again to leave.
Hearing the movement outside disappear and the palm on his lips leaving, Xia Luotong felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, there was suddenly a muffled sound beside her. Thinking that Wu Zechen was suffering from poison, she quickly turned around and grabbed his hand to feel his pulse without hesitation.
Fortunately, although he was poisoned due to the influence of the poison, he had taken the pills she made specially for him, so the toxicity has been weakened and it is not too critical.
At this time, Wu Zechen and Xia Luotong were still nesting in a corner of the firewood shed, surrounded and blocked by firewood. The small space made the two of them very close, and Xia Luotong was almost leaning on Wu Zechen's chest.
The breath between the two seemed to be in his ears. Wu Zechen even smelled the faint fragrance coming from Xia Luotong's body, with a slightly intoxicating aura that constantly surrounded him...
Seeing the person in his arms frowning slightly and taking his pulse seriously, he was dazed for a moment.
For the first time in his life, he could actually notice the beauty of a woman, and found it so fascinating. Before, in his eyes, all women were the same, and there was no distinction between beauty and ugliness...
Inadvertently, he remembered the time when he had wronged her a few days ago, her gradually cold eyes, and her increasingly indifferent attitude in recent days, and the depressed feeling in his heart rose again.
He suddenly regretted his previous prejudice and coldness towards her. If he had not looked at her with the prejudice against the Minister of Rites at the beginning, what would have been the result?
In a daze, the man in his arms suddenly raised his head and looked at him steadily with beautiful eyes like stars.
"I will give you the acupuncture now. After I finish the acupuncture, your toxicity will be temporarily suppressed. However, this is not today's detoxification treatment, it is just emergency treatment. You will have to undergo today's detoxification treatment when you return to the palace. "
Her serious look made him stunned for a moment, but the alienation in those beautiful eyes did not escape his eyes.
He lowered his eyes, covering up the loss that even he himself had not noticed yet.
"It's all up to you." He replied subconsciously.
Xia Luotong nodded, satisfied with his obedience, but she didn't care about anything else.
After this period of getting along, she has come to understand that as long as she is the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Rites, he will hate her. No matter how much the Minister of Rites harmed her life, and how she expressed her hatred towards the Minister of Rites, it was of no use.
Even if she worked hard to detoxify him, it would only buy her temporary stability and leave him alive afterwards.
After thinking about this, she made up her mind to detoxify him honestly, take revenge, and leave without looking back.
She didn't want to pay attention to the turmoil in the capital.
After Xia Luotong got his answer, she left his chest without any hesitation, pushed aside the firewood covering her body, stood up and walked to the open space in the house.
Instructing Wu Zechen to lie down in an empty space, Xia Luotong immediately took out the silver needle he carried with him, removed his coat, and used the poison-sealing needle technique.
He has a lean and powerful body, strong muscles, and perfect proportions. He is not exaggeratedly strong, but his lines are extremely attractive.
Such beautiful scenery fell into Xia Luotong's eyes, but it did not cause any waves. You must know that if other women saw this scene, their cheeks would turn red, and those bold women would probably scream.
Her calm look fell into Wu Zechen's eyes, but it made him feel a little dissatisfied and uncomfortable.
You must know that on the western border, the folk customs there are fierce, and the military camp does not care much about other things. Sometimes he will even take off his shirt when he is sweating from training. Occasionally, he will be seen by the families of the soldiers who happen to pass by, and they will all scream in excitement.
Although I didn't think it was anything at the time, now I think about it, maybe I was still a little complacent. But in Xia Luotong's eyes, he couldn't see any mood swings in her. I have to say that this made him feel a little frustrated.
He quietly watched Xia Luotong administer the acupuncture, and for the first time he looked at her face as she administered the acupuncture. He had always closed his eyes during the previous detoxification treatment.
Unexpectedly, her appearance when she was focused seemed to have a slight glimmer of light, which was dazzling and charming, making people's eyes follow her involuntarily and reluctant to move away.
This is what Wu Zechen thought and did. He kept staring at Xia Luotong, and finally noticed that her face was getting paler and paler when she was applying acupuncture, but her eyes were like that from beginning to end. Determined, as if nothing could shake her.
After she tightened the needles, her eyes finally showed a look of exhaustion, and her figure swayed, sitting on the pile of firewood behind her, gently rubbing her temples.
It was only then that Wu Zechen came back to his senses and suddenly realized that the pain from the poison had disappeared. At some point, the poison in his body had been suppressed.
Was he looking so intently just now...?
"Are you okay?" Wu Zechen put on his clothes and looked at Xia Luotong, who was sitting on the firewood pile and looked particularly weak, and asked hesitantly.
"It's okay, I can leave as soon as I can." Xia Luotong didn't look at him, just closed his eyes and rested with a calm expression.
Seeing her looking like she didn't want to communicate, Wu Zechen didn't know what to say for a moment. The quietness he liked most in the past seemed a little uncomfortable at the moment.
Thinking of her indifference during this period, it seemed that she no longer even smiled in front of him. During the period of detoxification, although she would not smile at him, she would joke with Xu Laoqianlao. Now it is almost I won’t say another word in Shaoguang Pavilion.
And this situation started exactly from the night when she was poisoned by the sachet and he suspected that she had ulterior motives to frame Liu Yingxue...
Now it has been confirmed that what she said is true. On the contrary, the reason why there are broken blue leaves in the sachet sent by Liu Yingxue has not been found yet.
Regardless of whether Liu Yingxue intentionally harmed Xia Luotong or let it in accidentally, she still owes Xia Luotong an apology...
Glancing at Xia Luotong, who had his eyes closed to rest, Wu Zechen felt uncomfortable in his heart. He had been holding back the words he had been unable to say for so many days. Now the time might be right. After hesitating several times, he finally spoke——
"I'm sorry, I have wronged you."
As soon as the words came out, he suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, and the obstacles in his heart seemed to be lifted. Then he looked at Xia Luotong anxiously, not knowing how she would react.
