Chapter 137 Chapter 137

Qiu Niang went to Jiang's house to take care of Mrs. Jiang.

On the surface, only Liu Su and Lu Kui were seriously injured and unable to move.

It was different from when Shen Qingci went there before, Lu Kui was either writing medical books or grinding herbs.

This time, before she stepped into the yard, she smelled a strong aroma of wine.

From afar, I heard Lu Kui say vaguely: "Ziwen, I never thought that a farewell back then would be a farewell forever."

"We won't have a chance to drink together again. If I had known, you shouldn't have stopped me from drinking. We'll be happy when we get drunk!"

"I'm a living dead, I can't see the light of day."

"But you..."

"Come on, I respect you for this glass of wine. You love your wife and daughter like your life. Now your family is reunited below."

……

Shen Qingci's footsteps paused, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Lu Kui who was leaning on the bamboo chair and pouring wine into his belly while holding the wine jar, without any trace of his usual elegance.

After hearing his muttering under the drunken eyes, Shen Qingci realized that he was missing her father Jiang Zhizhou.

Shen Qingci knew that Lu Kui had a heart disease and could not drink alcohol.

She stepped forward quickly, and raised her hand to press the wine jar that Lu Kui was holding: "Doctor, stop drinking."

Lu Kui had already drank a lot, and his body was shaking a little at this time.

"Who are you? Why do I look familiar?"

Shen Qingci snatched the wine jar from his hand, and persuaded: "Just say that Mr. Jiang fell into the river, as long as we don't find... the body for a day, we can't say for sure..."

Lu Kui didn't take the wine jar anymore.

He waved his hand: "That's Li Jiang, he doesn't know how to water..."

After saying that, he sighed heavily, leaned his head back on the bamboo chair, and closed his eyes.

Even though he raised his hand to cover half of his face, Shen Qingci could still see tears flowing from his fingers through the light from the room.

She also wants to cry, and she also wants to get drunk and die.

However, she can't.

"It'll be fine."

Shen Qingci gritted his teeth.

She remembered what she told Liu Wu to do in the afternoon.

She asked him to lead someone to follow the place where her father fell into the river, and look for it all the way.

Not only to find the whereabouts of the old man, but also to inquire secretly, who else is looking for the old man like them.

She had a strong intuition that although her father's death seemed to have nothing to do with Gu Qiuli's people, it was definitely not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

Maybe it has something to do with her mother's death that year, and because she was hunted down by Gu Qiuli and others all the way.

In the past, Jiang Yuwan lived a simple and happy life, trusting her parents wholeheartedly.

It never occurred to her that her parents might keep something very important from her.

She has to figure it out.

Thinking of this, Shen Qingci sat down on the bamboo chair opposite Lu Kui, lowered his voice and said: "Doctor, do you know Li Huozhu?"

As soon as the words fell, Lu Kui, who was already a little confused from drinking, was quick-witted, and looked at Shen Qingci with wide eyes: "What do you ask it for?"

His alcoholism has faded a lot, and before Shen Qingci can explain, he waved his hand: "Good girl, the less you know about this stuff, the better, listen to me, don't ask."

However, Shen Qingci was not willing to give up so easily.

Anyway, Lin Yue also knew that she was being targeted by Gu Qiuli because of Li Huozhu.

Therefore, she didn't care about Lin Yue's spies who were guarding in the dark outside the yard, and said bluntly: "That's right, I'm good friends with the eldest girl of the Jiang family. I heard that she died tragically. I wanted to investigate the cause of her death, so I went there." her grave."

"Unfortunately, I met your Master Lin there, and was misunderstood by him. Since then, he has been pressing me about the whereabouts of Li Huozhu."

"However, I don't know what pigs are not, so I asked around."

Shen Qingci was speaking to Lu Kui as well as Lin Yue's spies for these series of explanations connected in series.

Ever since Tassel was injured and she asked him for something, the relationship between them was no longer the same as before.

Shen Qingci was also not sure, whether he expected that she would not escape with Tassel in his hands, so he did not use interrogation methods on her, or whether he believed her words.

This man is cloudy and moody.

In any case, she would not let go of any chance to "blame" herself.

Lu Kui's eyes gradually cleared up.

Shen Qingci continued, and got to the main point: "Later I met a lunatic, and he told me that the glass fire bead is the top poison in the world. It can not only cure all poisons, drive away evil spirits, but can even... bring the dead back to life?"

"The doctor is well-informed, do you know the truth of this statement?"

Lu Kui shook his head first, and finally sighed: "After all, we have never seen that bead before, so who can tell whether it is true or not."

Shen Qingci saw that he was pretending to be sophisticated again, thinking that he was going to show off again, or avoiding answering, but unexpectedly, he frowned the next moment and said: "However, I have heard people say that that thing can indeed Eliminating all kinds of poisons, as for bringing the dead back to life...it's a bit mysterious after all."

If Jiang Yuwan heard these words, she would definitely feel that it was outrageous, but for Shen Qingci who died after the soul wear, is there anything more outrageous than her experience?

But right now, her focus is clearly not here.

"I just heard that the doctor has been talking about Mr. Jiang in the Yong'anbo Mansion. I thought you should be his best friend. You should have heard him talk about this bead, right?"

As soon as the words fell, Lu Kui suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at Shen Qingci: "What are you talking about, girl?"

Shen Qingci blinked his eyes with an innocent and bewildered expression.

Lu Kui took a deep breath, as if he didn't want others to hear, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Did he tell you?"

Shen Qingci nodded.

Lu Kui's expression froze, and he looked up and down Shen Qingci in shock, trying to confirm the truth of what she said.

In fact, her father Jiang Zhizhou didn't say anything to her.

Shen Qingci said this on purpose to test how much Lu Kui knew and how much her father knew.

From Lu Kui's reaction, she knew that these two people should have known about Li Huozhu a long time ago.

And, most likely, it's more than just knowing!
Shen Qingci suppressed the excitement in his heart, and explained with a calm face: "It may be because I am Jiang Yuwan's good friend, who loves the house and black, and he kindly reminded me a few words when I was at a loss and was hunted down by Mr. Lin."

"However, he only said that it was a sacred object of the Dongyi tribe, and ordinary people would not easily see it. He didn't say anything else. I learned about detoxification from that lunatic later on."

As soon as the voice fell, Shen Qingci saw that Lu Kui's expression was obviously relaxed.

"Doctor, what's wrong?"

Lu Kui waved his hand: "It's nothing, I just acquainted with Mr. Jiang, so I don't know much."

He was clearly here on the front foot because of Jiang Zhizhou's affairs and disregarded his own body to get drunk, so he wanted to distance himself from him on the back foot.

Totally unreasonable.

But he didn't care, and stood up before Shen Qingci could speak: "I really drank too much, I have to go to rest."

"If I say anything, it's just drunk, girl, don't take it to heart."

While speaking, he hiccupped and went back to the room trembling.

It's not easy for Shen Qingci to press too hard, not to mention, he did drink a lot right now.

It is confirmed that Lu Kui knows some inside information, and she will find a way to talk later.

After Lu Kui returned to the room, Shen Qingci first took a look at Liu Su.

Tassel's external injury has healed a lot, but the internal injury still hasn't made any progress.

He has six senses.

As early as when Shen Qingci stepped into the courtyard, he already knew she was coming, and when he heard her sitting down and talking to Lu Kui, he wished he could get up and greet her.

However, his internal injuries were too severe and he couldn't move at all.

Seeing Shen Qingci coming in, Liusu's deer-like eyes blinked and blinked.

Even though he didn't say anything, Shen Qingci could already see the mixed emotions of excitement and grievance from his pure eyes that were not a bit of worldly affairs.

"Okay, didn't I come to see you?"

"You recuperate here obediently, let the doctor heal you, and we will go back."

Liusu nodded, and stared at Shen Qingci with a wrong look.

He seemed afraid that Shen Qingci would leave again.

Shen Qingci leaned down, tucked up the quilt for him, and said: "I'm a little busy these days, so I can't come to see you often. When I come next time, I'll bring you jujube cake, okay?"

Liusu seemed to want to nod vigorously, but his injuries were too severe, just a slight movement touched the injury on his chest, and the pain caused his facial features to wrinkle together.

But he was silent.

It was just that Shen Qingci would be worried and sad.

For such a silly child, how could Shen Qingci not soften his heart.

She raised her hand and rubbed Liusu's head: "We'll all be fine."

She originally wanted to tell Liusu not to easily disclose the fact that she lived in the Shen family to the people here.

Looking at it now, although he was a bit stupid, after realizing that he had been infected with tracking Gu, he would rather die on the street than be traced to her whereabouts.

How could he tell people her address and identity like this.

Sitting with Liusu for a while, guessing that the time was almost up, Shen Qingci got up and said, "I still have things to do, so I'm going back first."

Tassel nodded.

Shen Qingci turned around only to find that his hand was still tightly tugging on her sleeve.

"Heal your wounds obediently, get better soon, and stay with...Mother?"

Although he was used to being called "mother" by Liusu, it was still a bit weird for Shen Qingci to use this kind of self-proclaimed name for the first time.

Hearing her comfort, Liusu let go of her fingers a little bit.

Shen Qingci patted his head again, then got up and left.

It will be dark.

She has to hurry up and go to Jiang's house.

Although it is not certain that her father's death was caused by the second prince Sheng Tingjing, it is reasonable that Sheng Tingjing should have a private meeting with Jiang Yuzhi again after such a big incident happened.

Even if it wasn't for Jiang Yuzhi, Sheng Tingjing would go to Jiang Yuzhi to make arrangements for Jiang Zhizhou's next step after Jiang Zhizhou's accident.

Shen Qingci didn't want to miss such a good opportunity to hear the news.

As soon as night fell, Jiang's house was closed and locked, she turned over and entered the backyard of Jiang's house, and found the Haitang courtyard by familiar means.

Sheng Tingjing was surrounded by a cloud of masters, and with the lessons learned from being eavesdropped last time, he would definitely be more cautious and careful in the future.

So, this time Shen Qingci hid in Haitang Courtyard, her boudoir in advance.
