The wife of the power minister's family

Xu Jing said: "Doctor Yan, please tell me."

Yan Ci took out two medicine jars from the purse at his waist, one black and one white. She poured out a pill the size of a woman's pinky fingernail from the black medicine jar, handed it to Xu Jing and said: "This is the poison I developed. If you don't take the antidote within three days, you will bleed to death. The antidote is here." In a white medicine jar.

I will leave this medicine jar to my son, so that the only person who has the antidote in the world is my son.

If Madam Xu is willing to take this pill, I believe no one here will doubt Madam Xu. "

Cheng Xiao was shocked and said: "No..."

Xu Jing took the pill directly from Yan Ci's hand and said with a faint smile: "Okay, but I am willing to accept such an unequal treaty not because of anything else, but because of my trust in Doctor Yan.

Because I trust Doctor Yan, I am also willing to trust Cui Langjun and Cui Shijun. "

After saying that, she raised her head and took the medicine without hesitation.

At this moment, there was nothing anyone else could say. Cui Han took the white medicine jar handed to him by Yan Ci, suddenly turned to Xu Jing, bowed deeply, and said, "Don't worry, Madam Xu. As long as Madam Xu's identity is confirmed, I will immediately hand over the antidote with both hands. We have been rude to Madam Xu a lot in the past, and I hope Madam Xu will not take it to heart."

Xu Jing's attitude had already convinced them of her identity.

Just to be cautious, we can't make a final decision yet.

Cheng Xiao was so anxious that he glared at Cui Han and his son angrily and said, "This medicine will take effect in three days. We have to act as soon as possible. Now that things have happened, Cui Shijun can tell us openly and honestly, where is this place?" , and how far is it from Lingzhou?"

Cui Han was very talkative now. He looked at Cheng Xiao and said, "Don't worry, this is the Wuming Mountain outside Lingzhou City. This is a valley in the Wuming Mountain. Because the surrounding terrain is rugged and dangerous, it is difficult to be discovered. My grandfather was the same way back then." I accidentally discovered a path leading here and learned about the existence of this valley.

If you go back to Lingzhou City from here, you can get there in half a day if you hurry.

If Madam Xu is not afraid of being too tired from running around for days, she can set off now. "

Although he felt sorry for his mother and hoped to let her rest for a night before leaving, Madam Xu was willing to bet her life on him, and they had to show some sincerity.

Based on his understanding of A Niang, A Niang would also choose to leave immediately.

Sure enough, Yan Ci nodded and said, "I can leave at any time, it's up to Madam Xu to decide the time of departure."

Cui Shidu on the side had a serious face and opened his mouth to say something. Yan Ci immediately said: "Ms. Xu, don't worry about the indifferent attitude of others around you."

Cui Shidu: "..."

Xu Jing glanced at Cui Shidu who looked resentful in a funny way and said: "Li Yuan will take action in two days. Naturally, the sooner we take action, the better. I think it is most appropriate to rush to Lingzhou City tonight." of."

"it is good!"

Yan Ci nodded decisively and said, "Haner, I leave the preparations for the trip to you."

Cui Han immediately responded with cupped fists, then turned around to prepare.

Cui Shidu: "..."

He seemed to have become an irrelevant person.

Until before they set off, Yan Ci didn't even look at Cui Shidu. Cui Shidu was so anxious that he was scratching his head and head. He was in his forties, but he was still as pitiful as a young boy who couldn't make love.

Xu Jing and Yan Ci were riding in the same carriage. It wasn't until the carriage moved forward that Xu Jing saw Yan Ci quietly lift the curtain of the carriage and take a look outside. She couldn't help but chuckled and said, "Mu Qing is right. Doctor Yan actually cares about Mr. Cui very much."

Yan Ci was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Xu Jing, with a calm expression, "You can't say you don't care, but I have been entangled with him for decades. In order to avoid him, I even went to the palace that I disliked the most. , he also chased me, but actually I already recognized him, I will never be able to get rid of this old guy in this life."

Xu Jing looked at Yan Ci and said: "The knot in Doctor Yan's heart is actually not Cui Langjun, but the title of Jiedushi of the Cui family?"

Cui Shidu deceived Yan Ci, and Yan Ci was indeed very angry, but no matter how you look at it, Yan Ci still has feelings for Cui Shidu, and she is not unwilling to forgive him for decades.

Yan Ci's face suddenly became sad, and she said in a deep voice: "I didn't know until today that father and son were burdened with so many things. In the past, because I hated Jiedushi, I was unwilling to know more about them or get close to them. , fully believing that they were unwilling to give up the power in their hands because they had dissent in their hearts towards the imperial court."

But she never thought that sometimes when a person reaches that position, many things cannot be decided by him/her. Their concerns and involuntary actions are beyond her imagination.

Yan Ci paused, let out a long sigh, and said, "After all these years, I only discovered today that I live so self-consciously."

Xu Jing looked at her and couldn't help but smile slightly: "The fact that Dr. Yan can live such a self-centered life is probably the result that Cui Langjun and Cui Shijun want to see. I can see that until the last moment, they didn't want to see Yan." The doctor girl is involved in this.”

Maybe Yan Ci didn't want to interfere too much in their affairs, but they were happy.

Just like last night, Xiao Yi was trying to persuade her to leave Lingzhou first.

Xu Jing never doubted that if she was willing, Xiao Yi would be happy to keep her firmly behind him.

Seeing Cui Han and his son defending Yan Ci tonight, she inexplicably thought of Xiao Yi and Xiao Huaian.

Unknowingly, she actually had a family in this world who cared about her wholeheartedly.

Xu Jing said, her thoughts couldn't help but become a little empty.

I don’t know if Chunyang has sent her safety letter to Xiao Yi.

But even after receiving her letter, Xiao Yi must be worried.

I just hope that her disappearance will not affect him too much and allow the enemy to take advantage of it.

Before dawn, they walked out of the valley and walked on the road to Lingzhou.

Xu Jing and Yan Ci were closing their eyes and concentrating in the carriage. Suddenly they heard the rapid sound of horse hooves approaching behind them. Their motorcade suddenly stopped. Cheng Xiao, who was walking at the front, and a general sent by Cui Han said in deep voice almost at the same time. Said: "What's so urgent?"

Immediately, a slightly tight voice was heard, "Report Captain Zhong! The spies we sent out came to report that a group of night soldiers were seen in the village ahead. It looked... like the tail left behind by the army when it passed through. !”

"what?!"

Lieutenant Zhong's voice couldn't help but contain a hint of surprise, "It's not like Li Yuan's people could have arrived in Lingzhou so quickly!"

"I don't know, but the military flag held by the night marchers is clearly the white tiger flag with a black background commonly used by the emperor. However, according to the spies at the front, their marching lineup and the way they do things are very unfamiliar and not at all like Send your troops to your command!"

Now, there is nothing I don’t understand!

I'm afraid Li Yuan acted in advance!

Lieutenant Zhong couldn't help but look at Cheng Xiao. They were about to turn back to Xu Jing and Yan Ci for instructions on what to do next. Xu Jing helped Yan Ci get out of the carriage and looked at the soldier who came to deliver the news. , said: "What happened to the villages that the army passed by now?" (End of this chapter)
