letter?

Gu Qian looked at him suspiciously and asked curiously: "Master Li, I have some guesses about this case, but this letter..."

Li Jinyuan smiled slightly and said, "You will know after reading it, young lady." Then he took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Gu Qian.

Gu Qian took the envelope and when his eyes fell on the handwriting on it, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Senior Brother!"

She looked at Li Jinyuan in surprise and disbelief.

Li Jinyuan nodded and explained, "Yes, I am even good friends with Brother Long Yu. When he heard that I had received this difficult question and happened to receive news that you were in Hengcheng, he introduced you to me. He said that you are a skilled doctor, even better than him, and might be able to help."

After a pause, he continued, "He was worried that you might be angry because he didn't tell you in advance, so he wrote a letter and asked me to pass it to you to apologize."

Gu Qian opened the letter, and Long Yu apologized to her in the letter, saying that he shouldn't have arranged things for her casually. But Li Jinyuan was his friend, and Gu Qian happened to be in Hengcheng, so he couldn't bear to see Li Jinyuan at a loss, so he recommended Gu Qian to him.

He also said that he would prepare a lot of gifts for Gu Qian as an apology when they met next time, and hoped that Gu Qian would not be angry.

Gu Qian put down the letter and said, "Of course I won't be angry with you, brother. Besides, I'm interested in understanding this matter anyway, so it's not a big deal. Sir Li, feel free to ask any questions you have."

Upon hearing this, Li Jinyuan quickly spoke up: "That's great. I have already obtained some clues about this case, but there are still many unanswered questions."

"I'm sorry, young lady. To be honest, I happened to overhear what you said to this gentleman in the teahouse. The 'hallucinogenic' drug you just mentioned is the key to this case. Do you have any more clues or evidence?"

Gu Qian thought for a moment and replied, "I happened to see this medicine in an ancient book. I don't have this book anymore, but I can write down the specific prescription and effects. Perhaps you can start from the source of the medicinal materials and look for clues."

Li Jinyuan nodded in approval. "Miss, you are right. I will send someone to investigate the source and flow of this drug to see if we can find anything. In addition, I will trouble you to assist with the autopsy to determine whether the deceased was really poisoned."

Gu Qian readily agreed, "Of course, Senior Brother has asked me to do this, so I have no choice but to do it."

Luo Yunchen interrupted and said, "I will also help collect intelligence and lend you a hand."

Seeing this, Li Jinyuan's confidence increased. "With your help, the case will be solved in no time!"

Gu Qian immediately wrote down the prescription and its efficacy, and then handed it to Li Jinyuan.

After Li Jinyuan took the prescription, he read it carefully and said to Gu Qian, "I will arrange the autopsy immediately after I return today. I will send someone to pick you up and take you to the government office for an autopsy tomorrow."

"Okay, thank you, Lord Li." Gu Qian nodded with a smile.

After Li Jinyuan and the other two left, Luo Yunchen said, "How could it be such a coincidence?"

"Yes, I thought it was just because they heard our conversation, but I didn't expect that my senior brother was also involved." Gu Qian said.

The next day, Li Jinyuan arranged a carriage and sent someone to escort them to where the bodies were kept.

After arriving at the destination, Gu Qian cooperated with the coroner to carefully examine the body of the deceased, and indeed found some subtle symptoms that were consistent with the signs of poisoning recorded in ancient books.

"It seems that the deceased was indeed poisoned by this hallucinogenic poison." Gu Qian stood up and said affirmatively.

"This makes the case clearer," Li Jinyuan analyzed. "All we need to do next is follow this clue and we will definitely find the real culprit."

"Miss Gu, I have a favor to ask." Li Jinyuan said.

"Master Li, just speak directly. There is no need to be polite."

"It's like this. The people I sent to investigate reported that the families of the deceased all had henbane planted around them. I wonder if they wanted to use these henbane plants to make hallucinogenic drugs to achieve some purpose."

"So I would like to ask Miss Gu and Mr. Luo to go with me tomorrow to investigate what is going on. Maybe we can find some clues." Li Jinyuan said.

Gu Qian glanced at Luo Yunchen, and when he nodded, she said, "No problem, we will be ready tomorrow."

"Okay, thank you Miss Gu and Mr. Luo for your great help. Why don't you two stay at the government office today so that it will be convenient for you to travel tomorrow." Li Jinyuan said.

"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Lord Li." Gu Qian said with a smile.

"It's not a problem. I'll arrange for the servants to clean up the guest rooms. Please come with me to have something to eat first. I'll have someone take you back to your rooms to rest later."

"Okay. By the way, I would also like to trouble Lord Li to send someone to the restaurant to inform the owner so that he won't worry." Gu Qian said.

"I will arrange for someone to notify the shopkeeper now."

Gu Qian and Luo Yunchen ate something simple and went back to their room to rest.

The next morning, the sun was shining brightly.

Gu Qian and Luo Yunchen got up early, washed up, and then came to the gate of the government office to wait.

After a while, Li Jinyuan also came over with a few guards.

"Good morning, Miss Gu, Mr. Luo." Li Jinyuan greeted with a smile.

"Good morning, Lord Li." Gu Qian and Luo Yunchen responded.

"Let's go." Li Jinyuan said.

The group headed towards the place where the angelica seeds were grown.

Along the way, Gu Qian observed the surrounding environment and thought secretly in his heart.

After walking for a while, they finally came to a barren land, which was covered with dense nymphs, emitting a strong smell.

"Sir Li, this is the Qingxin Pill. If it is true as you said, that there are fairy seeds planted here, we will be easily affected if we get close. After taking the Qingxin Pill, it may ensure that our minds are clear and not affected." Gu Qian said, taking out a bottle of pills from his arms.

Gu Qian didn't need it herself, but she didn't want to expose her invulnerability to all poisons, so she took one anyway. After handing one to Luo Yunchen, she handed the remaining pills to Li Jinyuan.

After Li Jinyuan poured out a pill and swallowed it, he said, "Thank you, Miss Gu." He then passed the pill to the rest of the guards.

After taking the pills, everyone felt much clearer-headed and no longer affected by Tian Xianzi.

They continued to move forward, and the closer they got to the fairies, the stronger their aura became.

Finally, they arrived at their destination.

Gu Qian carefully observed these angelicas and was secretly surprised. She found that the growth conditions of these angelicas were very strange and very different from normal wild angelicas.

"These fairies are indeed artificially planted, and they seem to have been specially treated by someone." Gu Qian said.

"Why do you think so?" Li Jinyuan asked.
