The character design of the Flower of the High Ridge has collapsed

Chapter 137
At noon on the second day, it was the time when the sun was at its peak, and the entire sacrificial altar was scorched by the sun.

Jiang Youzhi stood up and saw He Qiren walked over supported by several slaves. The burn marks on his body had not fully recovered, and his leg was also injured.

It was already an hour after the ceremony ended, but after the whole process, He Chengqi seemed a little sluggish, his face was pale, his eyes were dark and bulging, and he had to rely on the support of others to keep from falling down .

Jiang Youzhi glanced at his purple lips, always felt that something was wrong, he looked like he had been poisoned.

After the ceremony was over, He Qiren was sent back immediately, and Ah Chang observed secretly.

He followed behind He Qiren, wanting to see where he was usually hidden, only to see four or five house slaves took He Qiren to an abandoned woodshed that looked very dilapidated in the west courtyard.

Ah Chang frowned. The demolished house looked very small and dilapidated on the outside, but after several people went in, they didn't come out for a long time.

Ah Chang, who was watching everything from the tree, felt that there might be something hidden in the woodshed, because the servants still didn't come out for half an hour.

Suddenly, the door opened, and several servants came out. After locking the door, they did not leave, but continued to patrol nearby.

When Ah Chang returned to the room, he told Pei Xun and Jiang Youzhi what he had just seen, and Jiang Youzhi asked in surprise, "The firewood room?"

Ah Chang nodded, and then said: "It's true, but I feel that it is not easy to pair up in that firewood room, and the four servants who escorted He Qiren today are all masters of martial arts, and they have been around the firewood room all the time. , breaking in is not advisable."

Jiang Youzhi nodded, and said, "That makes sense, but He Chengqi has absolutely no way of letting He Qiren out of his control."

Ah Chang said: "Why don't you ask my subordinates to go to the woodshed tonight to have a look."

However, Pei Xun shook his head and said: "No, if we rush in rashly, we will definitely startle the snake. If He Chengqi notices it and moves He Qiren away, then it will be difficult for us to find him."

Early the next morning, Jiang Youzhi was awakened by the sound of footsteps at the door. After she got up and opened the door, she saw the servant girl and the servant all running to the south, each looking very anxious.

Jiang Youzhi followed, and saw outside the door of the master room in the south, surrounded by maids and servants, all of them were in a hurry.

She went up to a maid and asked, "What happened?"

But before the maid had time to speak, she heard a sharp shout from the door, followed by the sound of throwing things randomly.

Then I saw a servant girl being pushed out of the room roughly, fell to the ground, and spilled the soup in her hand all over the floor.

Immediately there was a roar in the room: "I don't take medicine! I don't take medicine! Get out!"

Jiang Youzhi frowned, feeling confused about the situation for a while, so she helped the maid who was pushed to the ground and asked, "What's wrong?"

The little maid was very wronged, she cried and said, "Miss lost her temper again, she won't drink medicine no matter what."

He Chengqi did have a daughter, but after hearing that she was always well educated, how could she be as domineering as the one inside, so he subconsciously asked: "The one inside is Miss He Mingxiang."

The little servant girl wiped her tears indiscriminately, nodded and said, "Yes, it's our young lady."

Jiang Youzhi nodded knowingly, and looked at the blister marks on the little girl's arm that had been scalded by the soup. She rolled her eyes and said with concern, "I'll take you to treat the wound first."

The little maid looked at He Mingxiang's room worriedly, and said with some scruples: "But... but miss..."

But Jiang Youzhi pulled her up: "Treat the wound first, anyway, your lady won't be able to calm down for a while."

After Jiang Youzhi helped the little girl deal with the wound, she looked grateful, and Jiang Youzhi asked unintentionally, "How many years have you taken care of you miss?"

The little maid said: "I have been in the He Mansion since I was a child, and I have always stayed by Miss's side, taking care of me personally."

Jiang Youzhi nodded and said, "What's wrong with your lady? What kind of medicine are you drinking?"

Hearing this, the little girl sighed sadly, and said with a sad face: "Hey, my young lady has been suffering from hysteria since two months ago, when the young master suffered a tragic accident and died in a fire. The situation went back and forth, but it didn't get better, and her temper changed drastically. Today, I went to fetch her medicine, and she fell ill again, so the situation just now happened."

After hearing this, Jiang Youzhi comforted her, "Miss is also a poor person, hurry up and prepare another bowl of medicine, and send it to her."

When the little maid left, Jiang Youzhi saw no one was around, so she opened the medicine pot and took a look, smelling the medicine dregs. Suddenly, her eyes froze, looking thoughtful.

When she returned to the room, she handed the handkerchief covered with oil and medicine residue to Pei Xun, and said, "My lord, what is this?"

Pei Xun took the handkerchief, smelled the medicine dregs, and asked, "Where did these things come from?"

Jiang Youzhi quickly said: "This is He Qiren's younger sister. He Mingxiang drinks the medicine every day. Her personal maid told me that He Mingxiang suffered from hysteria because of He Qiren's excessive grief. I also happened to meet her going crazy this morning. scene."

Seeing that Pei Xun frowned slightly, Jiang Youzhi continued: "But this medicine is not for treating hysteria at all. If you take this medicine for a long time, you will become depressed, and then the false hysteria will become real hysteria."

After Jiang Youzhi finished speaking, she thought for a moment, and said, "He Mingxiang must know something, otherwise no one would have planned to harm her so much. Tonight, I'm going to her room."

But Pei Xun said: "If that's the case, He Mingxiang must be watched by those hiding in the dark all the time, so you must be careful in everything."

That night, with the help of Ah Chang, Jiang Youzhi slipped into He Mingxiang's room smoothly. She slowly approached the bed, but the person on the bed immediately opened his eyes very vigilantly.

Jiang Youzhi immediately controlled He Mingxiang's arm, but found that He Mingxiang seemed to be limp and weak, so she let go of her hand.

He Mingxiang half leaned on the bed with some difficulty, and asked, "Who are you?" Then she was about to yell.

Jiang Youzhi quickly covered her mouth with his eyes and hands, and said, "Miss, I'm here to help you and He Qiren, so don't shout."

When He Mingxiang heard the words He Qiren, she no longer struggled, but she still looked at Jiang Youzhi with vigilance.
