Yutang knew that Lu Jing's reputation was very good in Wujiang City and he was a famous hero far and wide.
But she still didn't dare to gamble.
After all, you only have one life.
But Yutang really couldn't think of any other reason to persuade Lu Jing not to let her drink this bowl of tea.
However, at this moment, the door of the main room was suddenly pushed open from the inside.
A red figure rushed out from inside.
Zhuo Tang was startled. Before she could react, a long sword was already placed on her neck, making the hair on the back of her neck stand up.
"Hero, if you have something to say, please tell me."
"You drugged me?"
Xia Huai's voice sounded colder than the cold winter in the twelfth lunar month.
"This is a bit of a misunderstanding..." Yutang said with a bitter smile.
"What misunderstanding?"
"This..." Zhuo Tang hesitated, and she just rubbed it for a while, and blood was already visible on her white neck.
Yutang turned her pleading eyes to Lu Jing, only to see that the latter had no intention of rescuing her.
Yutang felt regretful now. She didn't expect Xia Huai to wake up so early.
If I had known this, I wouldn't have gambled on that bowl of tea.
Now it’s better, there’s no need to drink tea anymore, you can go straight on your way.
Just when Yutang was about to close his eyes and wait for death, the long sword stopped swinging, and Xia Huai's voice sounded again, "Do you want to die or live?"
"I want to live, I want to live." Zhuo Tang said hurriedly.
"If you want to live, hand over all the remaining poison in your body." Xia Huai said.
"ah?"
Yutang was stunned for a moment, but the blood on her neck flowed down her collarbone.
Zhuo Tang didn't dare to neglect, and quickly took out a small bottle from his arms, "I didn't bring much with me when I went out this time. There are three pieces left in the bottle. I just need to melt them in..."
As a result, before Zhuo Tang finished speaking, Xia Huai took the bottle away, poured out one and said, "Eat it."
Yutang was so shocked that he could not speak.
When Xia Huai saw this, he was not polite. He stretched out his hand and tapped the acupoints on her body, and then stuffed the Yi Lu Tan Huan into Yutang's mouth.
Then he poured half a ladle of water down, waited for a while, and then unlocked Zhutang's acupuncture points.
Zhuo Tang immediately stretched out his hand to grab his own throat.
But her movement was once again stopped by Xia Huai with his long sword.
"Exercise meritorious service." Xia Huai said calmly.
Yutang already knew that he could not escape this time, so he could only grit his teeth and start performing the exercises as Xia Huai said.
After two weeks, her body began to feel warm.
A moment of greed was a poison specially prepared by the Paradise Palace, and Zhuo Tang had always used it on others. He never thought that he would suffer disaster one day.
It was also the first time she had tasted the poison.
She really couldn't resist it, and soon her breathing became rapid.
Big beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he begged, "Hey, I...I can't make it anymore."
Xia Huai was unmoved.
Yutang was ashamed and scared, "Xia, Xia Xia Nu... I was wrong. I really know that I was wrong. I will never use this medicine indiscriminately in the future. You... just let me go. If it's too late, it will be too late." That's too late."
"What's too late?"
"I...I..." Shen Tang was going crazy with anxiety at this moment. She felt like her body had turned into a furnace and might explode at any time.
After a while, Zhuo Tang couldn't bear it any longer, so he reached out and took off his shirt.
But she found that her actions did not alleviate her bad situation at all.
She was still struggling to hold on, until the last trace of reason in her head collapsed, but she could no longer care so much. valley
As a result, Xia Huai's voice finally sounded again, "Okay, go back to the house."
Yutang almost stumbled into the main room.
Xia Huai also put away her sword, followed in, and closed the door behind her.
Two hours later... the two came out of the house again. Xia Huai looked refreshed, having swept away the previous gloom in his heart.
Zhuo Tang, on the other hand, looked aggrieved, and while arranging his clothes, tears fell down.
This was the first time in her life that she had been tortured and humiliated like this.
But she couldn't say anything. Xia Huai was just repaying the other person with his own treatment.
Lu Jing outside the house didn't know what to say.
He didn't expect that Xia Huai, who always looked gentle and gentle, could be so fierce when he started to fight. Wait... It seems that his journey of three wives and four concubines will also end in a hatchet.
"Don't cry." Xia Huai frowned.
Hearing this, Yutang trembled and quickly stopped crying.
Xia Huai walked up to Lu Jing and said, "Master Lu, I want to ask you a favor..."
"Don't worry, I didn't report what happened to you, and I won't tell anyone else." Lu Jing said thoughtfully.
"That's not what I'm talking about." Xia Huai shook his head, then pointed at Yutang, "I want to talk to you about her."
"What's up with her?"
"I wish you wouldn't feed her the guest tea."
"Why?" This time it was Lu Jing's turn to be surprised, "Si Tianjian has regulations..."
"Rules are dead, people are alive... Don't be so rigid. She is right. Keeping her and the Paradise Palace behind her will be of great use to us." Xia Huai said.
"…………"
"Is there something wrong with what I said?"
Seeing that Lu Jing didn't speak and just looked at him with a shocked expression, Xia Huai asked again.
"Well...if you are sure you can control her, then it's not impossible to do as you say. But is this still the Xia Huai I know?"
Lu Jing couldn't help but said, "Are you sure... you haven't been snatched away by something? Isn't it usually the case that I raise the issue first and you act as the person to oppose it?"
"No, I'm feeling very good now. It should be said that I've never felt so good before." Xia Huai said seriously.
"Are you... talking sarcastically?"
"No."
"you sure?"
"I really don't." Xia Huai insisted.
"Okay, this case is over... You should also take a good rest. I will come back to you when the next case comes."
Lu Jing now felt that Zhuo Tang was on tenterhooks before. He didn't know why, but he always felt that the aura of Xia Huai in front of him was a bit scary.
Forget it... let’s wait to bring up the plan of three wives and four concubines.
There is no rush to do this in the next three or five days.
Lu Jing decided to use the Thirty-six Stratagems as the best strategy.
He put away the tea cakes on the table and was about to get up when Xia Huai's voice sounded again, "Is Master Lu leaving now?"
"Nvxia Xia, do you have anything else to do?"
"Master Lu, did you hear it..."
"Hear something."
"Our voices, and you should have seen them too." Xia Huai said generously.
"Do you want to see me too?" Lu Jing smiled bitterly.
"Daxia Lu is joking. You are different from her. After all, you were trying to save me before. In fact, I am very grateful to you for not taking advantage of others."
"Well... I just did what I should do at the time, so I don't have to worry about Lady Xia." Lu Jing scratched his head and said.
"But the responsibility... still needs to be borne." Xia Huai added lightly.
