Outside, the cold wind blew.
Lin Yunyan pursed her lips as she listened to the howling wind.
"How did she get sick at that time?" Lin Yunyan asked.
Xu Jian recalled: "The doctor said it was spring cold, which only lasted seven or eight days."
Having said this, Lin Yunyan knew that Xu Jian had some judgment without saying anything.
Xu Jian has been asking doctors to take care of his grandma for more than a year, which shows that he is worried, and his worries have gradually turned into doubts.
Although Grandma He is no longer young, she is still tough in action and in good spirits.
It's not like she spent many years in a hospital bed and wasted her life. Logically speaking, she shouldn't be cut off by a sudden illness.
Xu Jian lowered her eyes, pondered for a while, and said, "I just didn't expect that she was once an errand in the palace."
"If I hadn't tasted her craftsmanship, I wouldn't have imagined it." Lin Yunyan sighed. .
Starting all over again, no one can afford to think deeply.
Sort through the past events over and over again, looking for various ways to break the situation.
But no matter how carefully I familiarize myself with it, I can't find it in an old lady who has passed away.
The same is true for Xu Jian.
Furthermore, she is also used to her current status.
Commonly known as black under the lamp.
"Such an invisible means of harming people," Lin Yunyan's eyes darkened, "could it be the poisonous prescription that killed King Ding and Zhu Xuan's mother?"
"It's very possible." Xu Jian said.
At this moment in the past, the British government was still in great glory.
Zhu Cheng obtained two boxes of gold bricks from Laoshi Lane through Li Yuanfa and Xi Dongjia. Zhu Xian's mother was still "sick" and eunuch Wang was still hiding in the dark for six years. No one knew that the Zhu family and his son had come into contact with such a person. .
No one doubted how Zhu Xiang's mother became ill, and no one would link the illness of the female family members in the back house with the death of King Ding.
Everything is under the water.
And Nanny He just left.
"That kind of thing," Lin Yunyan frowned, "How could it be used on a grandma?"
The poison recipe is not complicated at all.
The medicinal materials used are commonly found in pharmacies. If you go to the shop to buy them on a daily basis, it will not arouse anyone's suspicion. It's just that the combination produces "miraculous effects".
But at that time, the only people who knew about Fang Zi were those in the sixth year of Wang's life. What did they do to Aunt He's family?
Lin Yunyan murmured, asking and answering questions to herself, sorting out her thoughts.
"Maybe grandma accidentally discovered something," she paused, then added, "or maybe they found out that grandma worked in the imperial kitchen and thought she knew something."
The former one is unlikely.
Aunt He's family usually works in the backyard of Taohe Zhai, and her daughter-in-law goes out for most of her daily shopping. Occasionally, she goes out just to bump into something or discover something, but it's just a coincidence.
The latter type is also difficult to judge.
It has been too long, and even if grandma really knows something, she may not remember it, or in other words, she may not care about it.
It's like it's dark under the lamp, and you won't think about the implications at all.
Or maybe she actually didn't know anything, but the other party was guilty and thought she had discovered some clues, and Xu Jian went in and out of Taohe Zhai again. Maybe those things would fall into Xu Jian's ears in the end...
Since it is a guess, it should be more thorough.
Lin Yunyan finally smiled and said: "Maybe we have overthought it. Grandma is really a cold..."
From the past life to the present, to infer things that happened in the past life but have not yet come in this life, we can only say that no matter how many ideas we have, there are no clues to prove it.
Xu Jian reached out to lift the teapot and drank a cup of tea with Lin Yunyan.
Then, he said slowly: "There is no use thinking about the former one. If she goes to Beijing three times next month, she won't meet Wang Liuliu and Zhu Cheng. She may also run into others, but Unknowable. The latter kind can only let her recall slowly, even the smallest details."
This is the truth.
The two of them analyzed it for a while. The dishes were heated in the kitchen, and Shenchen was heavy again.
Newly delivered.
When you cook it again, the taste will naturally be a little different from before, but with good ingredients and good craftsmanship, the taste is still very good.
Or maybe she was hungry after talking about a lot of things, and Lin Yunyan was very satisfied with her meal.
Xu Jian warmed a pot of wine and took a sip.
Lin Yunyan put down the bowl and glanced at the wine bottle.
According to what she had just watched, Xu Jian was taking his time, eating more vegetables and sipping less wine, and there was probably half of the pot still in it.
And the wine has a floral aroma, so it should be brewed osmanthus wine.
Seeing her eyes falling on the wine bottle, Xu Jian raised his eyebrows subconsciously, and spoke slowly and in a calm tone: "What? The princess also wants to share a drink?"
Lin Yunyan heard his tone, which was obviously looking for trouble, and replied: "What? Is the Duke unwilling to score points?"
"It's just wine, there's nothing to be reluctant to part with," said Xu Jian, but Xu Jian took the wine pot and only added it to his own cup, without taking another cup at all. "I don't dare to share it with the princess. You bring it." Let’s go back to the house with some wine. I’ll visit you in a few days to pay New Year greetings. It’s hard to say whether I can leave the uncle’s house standing.”
Even though she guessed that Xu Jian didn't have anything "nice to say", Lin Yunyan was still angry and laughed.
This man's ability to tease is really improving with each passing day.
What is Xu Jian's drinking capacity?
What's your father's drinking capacity?
She had heard Shen Chen mention it before, saying that when Xu Jian was fourteen years old, he followed the old Duke Guo on his first battlefield.
At that time, we were encountering a great war. The Anxi General's Mansion was destroyed, and the Zhao family was full of heroes. There was an unyielding determination to retreat on the front line, but the morale of the soldiers was severely affected.
The arrival of the old Duke Guo slightly stabilized the morale of the army, but everyone had their own ideas about young Xu Jian.
It's too immature, and it's really not time for the young man to go into battle.
With such a grandson under his knees, the people of Xiliang are coming fiercely, and it is the time of high tide. If Xu Jian breaks here, then...
The old man didn't say much and just let Xu Jian fight on her own.
On the school field, they compete for martial arts, and off the school field, they compete for drinking.
There may be some people who dare not be cruel to Xu Jian when it comes to fists and kicks, but no one will let him go when drinking.
In the end, I am truly convinced and convinced.
With the fierceness of a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, he boosted his morale.
It wasn't that Lin Yunyan was "cowardly", but the level gap was really too big. Even if her father asked the two uncles to join the battle, they still couldn't beat Xu Jian.
Why couldn't Xu Jian leave the uncle's house standing?
It's just that he "respects the elderly" and is "filial".
Tsk!
Just give him a pat on the back.
Xu Jian received a few mild blows to the eyes and took a sip from the wine cup.
Rubbing the smooth white porcelain with his fingertips, he added, "If you don't have a taste in your mouth, there is sweet soup in the kitchen. I think I put a lot of sugar in front of you."
Now that she was at a disadvantage, Lin Yunyan did not insist on regaining the victory.
When Shenchen brought the sweet soup, she tasted it several times in a row. It felt sweet on the tip of her tongue and she felt extremely comfortable.
"I didn't bother to ask before," Lin Yunyan said, "How did your leg get hurt this time?"
