Memories of the past came roaring back.
It turns out that Pei Yanzhou also has his own stubbornness. He used to be unwilling to look at her in Zhuya Courtyard, but now he is afraid to wake up from the pain. He is so awkward that he seems to be a different person.
Song Jinyin suddenly stopped moving her arms and just looked at the person on the bed, gradually lost in thought.
"Thank you."
Lin Jingxiu came to the side at some point and said softly, "And the questioning in the inn that day, I was a little impulsive."
Pei Yanzhou's eyebrows wrinkled again, as if he wanted to open his eyes, but he was swept away by pain in the struggle, and his eyelashes trembled slightly.
Lin Jingxiu looked at Song Jinyin while he was talking, not knowing the reaction of the sleeping person on the bed.
"I didn't seriously apologize to you later. Even when I came to find you today, I didn't ask you if you were willing. If he knew, he would probably really blame me."
Song Jinyin kept looking at Pei Yanzhou.
She even noticed that he held her hand and relaxed for a moment after hearing the words "Go find her."
But when Song Jinyin took advantage of the situation and tried to retract her arm, the loosened restraint was closed again.
I don't want to force her, but I don't want her to really leave. I don't know who I'm angry with.
"Young master Lin, you don't have to be like this. Today is the day I agreed with him."
Song Jinyin's voice was as soft as ever, slightly soothing the discomfort between Pei Yanzhou's brows.
She didn't take what happened that day to heart, let alone mention it to Pei Yanzhou. She thought he must have listened just now, and thought she was forced by Lin Jingxiu to come to see him today, so she struggled to wake up.
But the person who clearly wanted her to leave held her wrist tightly.
Song Jinyin shook her head, her eyes a little sore.
If she really didn't want to come, even if Lin Jingxiu put a knife on her neck, she would not step foot here.
Pei Yanzhou should know her temperament, but the person lying on the bed now still refuses to believe that she still has a will.
After a while, Song Jinyin came back to her senses and sniffed.
"Where's sister Wanqing?"
"The poison was quite difficult. She couldn't cure it, so she took people to find a way to cure it."
Speaking of this matter, Lin Jingxiu's tone couldn't help but become a little heavier.
But remembering Pei Yanzhou's instructions before he fell into coma, he wanted to say a few more words, but instead he only had one sentence left.
"If the whereabouts of the antidote cannot be found from the mouths of those assassins, and Li Wanqing cannot find an antidote, maybe..."
As soon as the words came into her ears, Song Jinyin noticed that her hands and feet were cold, and the warmth she finally felt dissipated in an instant.
The sentence may not have been finished, but Lin Jingxiu's expression clearly stated what he meant.
One day it just showed its bright color.
Xuanwei and Doctor Mu next to him already had anxious expressions on their faces, not to mention those who were out looking for medicine.
Poisoning is not like other diseases. If the poison cannot be detoxified early, after time passes, even the gods will be unable to save people.
Until this moment, Song Jinyin was not sure how dangerous this person was facing at this moment.
She looked at the wrist held by him, and a mist formed in her eyes.
In these difficult moments, he still remembered to let himself go. Thinking about it this time, he probably really made up his mind to give her freedom.
In this case, she would not be so heartless and anxious to leave him at this moment.
Lin Jingxiu and Doctor Mu were all seen walking around the bed.
Song Jinyin has always been quiet.
It wasn't until Doctor Mu withdrew the injection, but Pei Yanzhou didn't look any more relaxed because of it, that her calm eyes fluctuated for a moment.
Song Jinyin held the handkerchief with her other hand, took the initiative to wipe off the blood for him, and tightened the mattress.
When her fingertips traced his cheek, she suddenly spoke in a low voice, not knowing whether she was comforting him or comforting herself who was suddenly worried.
"Go to sleep, the antidote will be back when you wake up."
She was sure that Pei Yanzhou was half awake, could hear the sounds outside, and could feel her beside him.
But she didn't know whether he was holding on and refusing to fall asleep, or whether he was in pain and could only do this.
Song Jinyin suddenly felt uncontrollable fear in her heart.
Luo City is not like Kyoto. There is only Dr. Mu beside him. Dr. Ruomu is helpless, and Li Wanqing really can't find the antidote...
She didn't dare to think about what would happen tomorrow, and she even couldn't believe that the man who reminded her of her past last night was lying on the bed so quietly at this moment.
You can hear a needle drop in the room.
Pei Yanzhou seemed to sense that she was afraid.
His wound hurt.
But what was more painful than the wound was his heart being pressed by the boulder at the moment.
From the moment Song Jinyin appeared, he gradually woke up from the chaos.
But I still couldn't open my eyes, so I could only struggle to wake up, feeling the burning and pain of the wound.
Song Jinyin had not cared about whether he was sick for a long time, and he did not want to fall asleep again and waste her last concern.
It wasn't until Lin Jingxiu spoke that those words suddenly made him sober.
He was the one who went to find her, so Song Jinyin came and was willing to stay temporarily.
Maybe it has something to do with the brief reconciliation between the two in the past two days.
Although Song Jinyin is stubborn, she has always been a kind girl.
Pei Yanzhou held her hand tightly, his fingertips trembling uncontrollably. He was afraid that she would notice, so he avoided her wrist slightly.
But even after hearing Song Jinyin's murmur just now, he still didn't want to let go or sleep.
He was afraid that after sleeping, Song Jinyin would be gone when he woke up, and she would no longer be his little girl.
In the haze, Song Jinyin's whisper came softly, with a comfort that he had not heard for a long time, just like every time he was drunk in Zhuya Courtyard.
The man's heart tightened.
Thinking of her fear just now, the danger here now, and the departure she was looking forward to, she finally became cruel to herself.
When he finally managed to stay awake for a while, Pei Yanzhou gradually let go of her hand, and also let go of his last thoughts.
Just let her go.
Today was supposed to be a good day, and He should do something to make her happy.
...
The Yi family in the Mao period.
Luxuriousness is evident everywhere in the Yi family's house. Even the lamps hanging under the eaves that swayed in the wind were all precious items bought from caravans from outside.
But something that could be regarded as a treasure in the eyes of others could not even enter the Yi family's house.
It's just that it was supposed to be a lively day, but the Yi family felt a little heavy. The servants coming and going didn't know what was going on. They just lowered their heads and moved lightly, for fear of offending the master.
In the study room, the somewhat muscular Master of the Yi family was putting down the teacup in his hand, his gleaming eyes filled with anger.
Waiting in front of him was Yi Xudong, the young master of the Yi family.
The young master of the Yi family has been looking for trouble with Feng Qiyu in the past two days, trying to confront her, but he has never seen her come to his door. He came here several times, and he just felt weird in his heart.
"Father, do you mean that hundreds of assassins failed to kill those two people?"
The young master of the Yi family was filled with disbelief and exclaimed: "The young masters of Kyoto City are indeed different from the young masters of the official family in this small town."
"They are just ordinary young masters. Now the eldest son of the Pei family is conducting a thorough investigation on the assassin. He does not hesitate to drag all the officials in the city into trouble. He is determined to find out about our two families. If the whole matter cannot be blamed on Feng, Everything our Yi family has on us will be destroyed in one day, and it will be difficult for us to make a comeback!"
Yi Xudong had always known that there was a rift between his father and Prefect Feng.
Because of their official position, the Feng family used the help of the Yi family to do many things that were impossible for officials, and they made a lot of money as a result. However, it was originally a matter of profit, but the Feng family's ambitions grew stronger and stronger. , dissatisfied with the benefits that Yijia got.
This time, two powerful figures came to Kyoto City, especially the Pei family's eldest son, who had very sharp eyes, and for some reason he focused on their family.
It would be fine if we checked some trivial matters, but if the water is extremely clear, there will be no fish, and no one can be so clean.
But there happened to be another incident involving disaster relief funds from two years ago. If this matter was also found out, the Yi family would definitely be involved.
"Father, didn't the person who came just now say that although the matter has become serious, the prince was also poisoned, didn't he?"
"It's just poisoning. As long as he doesn't leave Luocheng for a day, or doesn't breathe for a day, we will always have to worry about it. And now that this matter has become a big deal, if we don't lead these things to Governor Feng and let them bite each other, Maybe others will use our Yi family to protect themselves!"
"Father said so."
Yi Xudong's narrow eyes revealed a ruthless look, and he suddenly lowered his voice.
"Father, since there is no turning back, it is better to take advantage of Governor Feng's absence and do it to the end. If it succeeds, our Yi family will be able to sit back and relax. The Feng family is the only one we have to watch out for. If we lose, we will connect these with the assassins. Blame it all on Governor Feng."
"How are you doing?"
"My son thinks that since the eldest son of the Pei family has been poisoned and stopped at Qian Lai Inn, it is better to attack the inn together and just buy assassins. Our Yi family is not short of money."
The study fell into silence again.
The master of the Yi family seemed to be considering his son's proposal.
He actually didn't want to take the risk unless it was absolutely necessary, but the Feng family had been pressing hard recently and wanted 70% of the property in his hands. They also used the collusion incident to threaten him, trying to put all the responsibility on him.
No matter how rich he is, he can't defeat the governor of a city, so he might as well make the water muddy.
"Let's check the current situation of Qian Lai at the inn first."
After a long while, Master Yi half-squinted his calculating eyes and said coldly: "I heard that not many people in the world can cure the poison. If the eldest son of the Pei family dies because of it, there is no need to do anything more."
"Then what if..."
"Wait for two days at the latest. If that doesn't work, I'll do as you say."
