Chapter 20
"What did the doctor say?" Xiao Ning asked the servant who was whispering outside the door just now.
She recognized this person because she had been with Lao Song for many years. Except for Lao Song, he was the most trustworthy second person in the entire Song family.
The little servant nodded and whispered: "The doctor has already prescribed the medicine, and we have prepared the medicine and sent it. But the young master may not know who we are, so we didn't take a sip if we didn't believe it."
Xiao Ning nodded, this was Si Ruiyan's temperament.However, he was really sharp. If he wanted to harm him, he would just stab him to death with a single knife, and why would he be decocted.
Thinking of this, her eyes flashed suddenly.
Si Ruiyan is a proton, and people disappear from time to time.Maybe he has a lot to deal with and a lot of people to deal with him.Some wanted his life, while others wanted to capture him alive and ask him for something.
Suddenly she thought of what Qin Fufeng had told her, that Xiao Wanying might be holding onto Si Ruiyan.
She became more certain of this idea in her heart.
"Bring the medicine here." Although Xiao Ning doesn't understand medical principles, he also knows that the poison on his body must be treated with an antidote, and it is impossible to recover on his own.
Even though he was reluctant in every possible way, Xiao Ning returned to the house with the medicine in his hand.
She took a sip of the concoction into her own mouth: "This is a decoction for you. I have already tasted it. If it is poisonous, we will die together."
Si Ruiyan frowned, his face was still cold, but his head was slowly turned back.
His body knew very well that it was impossible to force the poison by relying on internal force alone.If he didn't take the antidote, the toxin spread in his blood, and he was still in danger.
Xiao Ning was not surprised to see him drink the medicine obediently, after all no one would make fun of his own life.
The medicine will not take effect so quickly after taking it, and the potency of Baoxin Pill has not yet passed.But Si Ruiyan was already sleepy due to the weakness of Qi and blood, Xiao Ning asked the boy to come in and help him to lie down, as soon as his head fell on the pillow, he was already in a deep sleep Xiao Ning shook his head helplessly, this person who is usually so stubborn, Still weak after being injured.
"It's good to take care of you." Xiao Ning wanted to go back to the restaurant and ask Lao Song to see if Si Ruiyan had any violent conflicts with anyone before she came here, to the point of killing someone to vent her anger.
She guessed in her heart that the person who murdered Si Ruiyan would definitely not be from his own country, otherwise he would not have been allowed to live until now and as a hostage, it would be more beneficial for their country that Si Ruiyan lived.
If the murderous intent was provoked after entering the Song family, it might not necessarily be Si Ruiyan, but the Xiao family that those people wanted to deal with.
Xiao Ning thought a lot about the matter of killing her, she would rather think about it than make any omissions.
When Xiao Ning returned to the restaurant, he found a group of people standing outside the door, dressed in brown-red neat clothes, standing in two rows, their chests were straight and looked unusual.
"Miss Xiao is back."
As soon as Xiao Ning entered the restaurant, he heard a deep and arrogant voice.
She searched for the sound, and saw a man in his early forties, wearing a silver-blue gown trimmed with gold thread, with a silver crown, neat beard, and narrow eyes hanging upside down. A cunning fox.
Although this person looks treacherous, but the clothes are decent, showing a sense of nobility.
Xiao Ning saw that there was no one in the restaurant, needless to say, this person must have driven all the guests away.Her eyes flickered, she dared to smash her business in broad daylight, it was not a good person.
"This is?" She temporarily suppressed the anger in her heart and asked politely.
"Bold! You are rude to Mr. Wei Guo! How dare you ask for his name!" A person standing beside the man glared at him and shouted in a cold voice.
Xiao Ning glanced at him coldly, frowned and shook his head: "It's broad daylight, someone's dog doesn't take good care of it, it barks everywhere, it's making a lot of noise."
The veins on the man's forehead popped up, and he said angrily, "How dare you call me a dog! You are next to my lord..." "The dog next to me must be carefully controlled, let it out and bark incessantly , What if it bites someone? As the saying goes, it depends on the owner to beat a dog, but as long as it is a vicious dog, I will not be polite. Duke Li has always been very clear about right and wrong, so he certainly would not let a dog do violence, would he? "
Xiao Ning looked at the barking servant, and cast his cold eyes on Duke Li.
"Duke, this girl is indeed as arrogant and domineering as the rumors say. Why don't you let the humble official show her some color and let her know what the rules are!" The man lowered his head and clasped his fists, his whole face turned red like a persimmon.
Li Juegong didn't change his expression, he just picked up the tea and took a sip: "Miss Xiao is right, this vicious dog can easily hurt people by barking, and it should be beaten with a stick."
"That's right, all the guests in my building must have been scared away by the vicious dogs. There is no business for the day, and the young people who run errands outside have no work. King Yin's urgent need has just been resolved, I didn't expect it to be so We'll be in trouble soon." Xiao Ning sighed again and again, following Li Duke's words, he was defeated again.
The man was taken aback, he didn't expect the lord to speak for the wicked girl, and Duke Li didn't expect the wicked girl to be more cunning than he imagined, but his face was still calm, and he said slowly: "Today, the old man is doing it for you." It’s a matter of business, so don’t let outsiders know about it, or it will hurt Miss Xiao’s reputation. It’s good for the girl if the guests in the building are cleaned up, don’t worry, girl, as long as you tell the truth, we won’t delay for too long.”
Xiao Ning could tell that there was a hint of threat in these words.
The business was discussed in the restaurant, obviously there were personal matters mixed in with the business, otherwise Xiao Ning would have been directly invited to Duke Wei's mansion or government office.
"It's down to business, but the duke doesn't think he should discipline the evil slaves around him, and tell me the business again?" Xiao Ning glanced at the person who had yelled at her just now, and saw that he was still full of dissatisfaction.
Duke Li also glanced at the servants around him: "This guard is a rough man, and he does things like this, but he definitely doesn't have any ill intentions towards Miss Xiao. There are a lot of young ladies, so there is no need to argue with her."
Xiao Ning sneered, and looked up at the sky: "It turns out that Duke Li has such a style. The rudeness of his subordinates makes people magnanimous. If I care about it, it will appear that I am narrow-minded. I don't know if the Duke is begging the courtiers every day in the court. Be magnanimous and forgive yourself for your mistakes."
Duke Li's face darkened slightly, but before he could speak, Xiao Ning stood up.
She walked up to the man and slapped him hard.
"You!" The man stared at him, he was the first-class bodyguard of Duke Wei's mansion, and he was a fifth-rank official, and she, a woman without official position, dared to beat her.
"This slap is to reward you for His Royal Highness." Xiao Ning's voice was cold, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up into a hidden and stern smile.
The man's shoulders trembled for a moment, and he was inexplicably speechless.
"Li Juegong, you were originally a minister of Wei State, and your Li family has lived on Wei State's salary for generations. Now you have only served the new master for only a few years, and you dare to indulge your slaves in front of me. Do you know that I am the Xiao family? Female, but she is also the concubine of His Highness the Fourth Highness!"
Xiao Ning's gaze flickered, and his words were loud.
A proton is a proton, but Si Ruiyan's prince status has not been abolished.Marriage belongs to surrogacy, but the identity of the prince and concubine is still there.
After a while, the breath in the entire restaurant was stagnant.
"Miss Xiao is right." Duke Li continued to speak after being silent for a long time, "The Li family has been favored by the emperor of Wei for generations, and they should be loyal to repay it. Now Wei is subordinate to the Great Zhou, but it is also the old head of the Li family. , the old kindness cannot be forgotten."
Xiao Ning lightly smiled, and there was a lot of contempt in this laugh.
She didn't believe that Duke Li dared to deny the old master in broad daylight. This person who was ungrateful to the old master would certainly not have much loyalty to the new master.
