Lin Jian followed A Wan to the courtyard and heard her whisper: "You should keep watch in the courtyard. If you find anything unusual, make some noise and let me know. I will take care of Mr. Fang. If nothing happens, After an unusual two hours, we followed the woman to the ancestral hall."
Lin Jian nodded in agreement. Awan walked back and saw Fang Zilan still lying peacefully on the bed, and couldn't help but feel a little relieved. She went through the woman's words and deeds just now in detail in her mind. She always felt that something was wrong with every move she made, but she couldn't explain it. She frowned slightly and felt that her head was dizzy. She had been very sleepy after being through so much for the past few days. She sat on the edge of the bed and fell asleep with her head tilted in a daze.
I don't know how long it had passed, but Awan suddenly heard a loud bang coming from the courtyard. He couldn't help but wake up with a start. He was about to stand up and go outside to take a look, but suddenly found that he couldn't exert any strength and his legs were weak. He slumped to the ground obediently.
She subconsciously grabbed the bed curtain, and the bed curtain fell with a hiss, landing on the sleeping Fang Zilan. Only then did she remember what Fang Zilan said before - that woman was also involved in Miss Yan'er's death...
The woman's words flashed through my mind in a flash of lightning. Is she talking about a family? Speaking of men who have never met her, and Lin Jian said that only men can enter the ancestral hall, could it be that there is something in the ancestral hall?
Awan felt unspeakable regret, he should have killed the woman just now. She took out a dagger from her arms and cut her palm to keep herself awake. However, she couldn't help but feel fear in her heart. When did she get tricked? What method did the woman use to get her tricked?
While she was thinking, she leaned against the bed, tremblingly took out the pills, straightened her arms and stuffed the pills into Fang Zilan's mouth, "I'm sorry, I still failed you after all."
With tears in her eyes, Awan slowly took the antidote, but she still felt weak and weak. She looked out the window and saw that the sky was getting bright and the two hours were coming soon. She couldn't help but pray in her heart that Fang Zilan would wake up soon.
When Fang Zilan woke up, she saw this scene. Ah Wan was sitting on the ground, her head leaning on the bed and her face was haggard. Seeing this, she quickly stood up to check her condition, but she felt dizzy and actually vomited a mouthful of blood.
"Don't worry, I'm fine." Awan's voice was weak, and he looked up at her and said, "The child is dead. There is something wrong with the woman. She knows how to use poison, and the poison she uses is not simple..."
Fang Zilan raised her hand and pressed her temples, her face turned pale, "Have you taken the antidote?"
"It's no use after eating." Awan's breath weakened a little, "The poison she gave is not fatal, but it is enough for me to sleep for a day. Lin Jian is in the courtyard, and he must have been infected."
"The poison you can't even detoxify?" Fang Zilan frowned, and Awan used her last strength to grab her wrist, "It's not that you can't detox it, but there's no time. The poison, that woman, is from the Su family..." She Before he could finish his intermittent words, he fell asleep.
Fang Zilan was shocked. After regaining her breath, she quickly stood up, carried Awan on her back, pushed the door open and walked out, only to see Lin Jian being gagged and tied up in the courtyard. He couldn't help but whine a few times when he saw her coming out.
"What's going on?" Fang Zilan quickly untied Lin Jian. He breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Master Fang, I fainted without knowing what happened. When I woke up, I found myself tied here."
"Can you walk?" Fang Zilan pulled Lin Jian to stand up. He staggered and said, "You can barely walk."
"Then let's go and find that woman." Fang Zilan helped Awan who was behind him, and Lin Jian said hurriedly: "I know where the woman is. She said she wanted to send the child to the ancestral hall."
"Lead the way." Fang Zilan dragged Lin Jian's arm without any explanation and walked out quickly.
"Master Fang, please slow down." Lin Jian's legs and feet were still a little weak, but Fang Zilan turned a deaf ear, "What happened last night?"
Lin Jian told her everything he saw and heard last night. After listening, she pursed her lips into a straight line and remained silent.
"Master Fang?" Lin Jian called her tentatively, but saw her stop and said coldly: "Is this the ancestral hall of Linjia Village?"
Lin Jian nodded, and Fang Zilan stepped in without hesitation. However, she stopped before she went far. Lin Jian followed her and stopped, "Master Fang, this smell?"
"It's pine oil. That woman is going to set fire to it." Fang Zilan's face grew colder. She looked up at the eaves and asked the white figure, "Am I right?"
Lin Jian followed her gaze and found the woman sitting on the eaves holding a torch. He couldn't help but said in a daze: "She injured her hands and feet. How did she get up there?"
"Master Fang is right, I want to set fire." The woman smiled slightly and said: "It doesn't matter if I hurt my limbs, as long as I have one breath left, I will destroy Linjia Village."
Her words and demeanor were completely different from before. Lin Jian looked confused, while Fang Zilan's expression remained unchanged. "Miss Su family, what is the deep grudge between you and Lin family village that you must destroy?"
"Miss Su family?" the woman repeated softly, with red eyes and a smile on her lips. She stood up shakily and bowed to Fang Zilan and said, "Su Yuexi, the daughter of the Su family, has met Mr. Fang."
Lin Jian stared blankly at the person on the eaves who was almost unsteady on his feet. He saw her with serious makeup and said: "Master Fang, can I tell you a story?"
Fang Zilan was silent, and Su Yuexi continued talking to herself, "When Emperor Ningshun came to the throne, my father Su Che left Beijing on the pretext of resigning and returning to his hometown, and went to the East China Sea to find the elixir of immortality. My father was an upright and upright official for half his life. But he was influenced by his family and believed in the elixir of life overseas. He took my mother and my sisters to the southeast, but he never thought that he would encounter gangsters when he passed near Linjia Village. "
She paused, and her voice trembled a little, "It is not appropriate to make public the search for medicine, so our family did not bring any guards, which gave the gangsters an opportunity. They killed my parents and arrested My sister and I were humiliated in every possible way..."
Her tone suddenly became fierce as she spoke, and she gritted her teeth and said, "What's more, they actually used the money they robbed from my family to buy the position of Linjia Village's security chief from a minor official under King Rongan. He bullies men and dominates women and does all kinds of evil things! My poor father was always clean, but how could he have thought that after his death, someone would use his money to do such unconscionable things as selling out his official position?"
Fang Zilan listened to her words carefully and interjected quietly, "Seven years ago, a small official under King Rong'an was investigated and punished by General Xiahou, which caused an uproar in the court. Does this matter have anything to do with you?"
"Master Fang is really powerful. You guessed it right. It was me who risked my life to run out of Linjia Village and handed the evidence to Miss Yan'er." Su Yuexi shed tears at the corners of her eyes, "If Miss Yan'er hadn't helped, how could General Xiahou have done this? Reaching into King Rongan's jurisdiction? But I didn't expect that my escape would be discovered. My sister was beaten to death by them in order to protect me. At that time, she had just given birth to Heng'er less than a month ago. …”
Fang Zilan was stunned for a moment, then blurted out: "Do you know Miss Yan'er?"
"More than just acquaintance?" Su Yuexi burst into tears, "Master Fang, it was I who killed Miss Yan'er."
