I traveled through time with my best friend.

Chapter 52 I seem to be a little drunk.

The voice inside continued to come out, "What about her? What can we tell from her wounds?"

The coroner quickly looked at Yu'er who was standing beside him. "This woman was injured by the sword and seems to be poisoned."

Pei Zhijin frowned slowly, "Do you know what kind of poison he was poisoned with?"

"Please forgive me, sir. I am not very familiar with those poisons."

Jiang Xue frowned outside. Not good. Pei Zhijin was still investigating Yu'er. When Pei Zhijin was about to speak, Jiang Xue walked in. "I heard that the master didn't eat much all day. I came to bring him some food."

Jiang Xue walked towards Pei Zhijin with a smile.

"Why are you here?" Pei Zhijin asked.

"Since your Excellency has said this, I cannot care about your health any more."

The coroner was stunned when he saw a woman entering the morgue without any hesitation. Jiang Xue looked at the coroner and said, "Sir, this has nothing to do with you. Go back quickly."

The coroner glanced at Pei Zhijin, who said, "Thank you for your hard work."

The coroner then packed up his things, then bowed slightly and said, "Then I'll take my leave first."

After the coroner left, Jiang Xue walked to Yu'er's body with her hands behind her back, looked at it carefully, and then said, "If you want to know what kind of poison Yu'er was poisoned by, you can ask me. Have you forgotten that I am proficient in poison techniques?"

As he said this, he looked up and blinked at Pei Zhijin.

Pei Zhijin had forgotten that Jiang Xue could be poisoned, so he asked, "Then what can you see?"

Jiang Xue said directly: "I was the one who poisoned her."

"What?" Pei Zhijin looked at Jiang Xue in surprise, "You?"

"That's right." Jiang Xue stood up and said, "Yu'er held me hostage that night and wanted to kill me, so I poisoned her."

"Why did she want to kill you?"

"Because she is King Cheng's person." Jiang Xue said with her hands spread out.

Pei Zhijin didn't expect that Yu'er was King Cheng's man.

Jiang Xue thought Pei Zhijin would blame her, but unexpectedly, Pei Zhijin took out a whistle from his arms and handed it to Jiang Xue.

Jiang Xue asked in confusion: "What is this?"

"If there is any danger in the future, you can blow it and I will come over."

Jiang Xue reached out to take the whistle, and placed it in her palm. She looked at the small brown whistle and asked doubtfully, "How far can you hear it?"

"kindness."

"You are in the capital, and you can hear me playing it in Anzhou?"

Pei Zhijin: "...Give it back to me."

Jiang Xue quickly put the whistle into her arms and said, "You gave it to me, how can I take it back?"

"Okay, okay. I heard from Prince Yan that you haven't eaten much all day. I brought you some food at Baoyue Tower. Want some?"

If Jiang Xue hadn't said anything, Pei Zhijin wouldn't have felt hungry. Now he felt hungry and nodded, "Okay."

"Walk."

Jiang Xue walked out first, and Pei Zhijin followed behind.

The two sat in the pavilion. Zhu Feng left the pavilion after setting the dishes. Standing not far away, Jiang Xue poured Pei Zhijin a glass of wine and said, "I heard that the mulberry wine in Baoyue Tower is delicious, but it's a pity that we went too late and there's no more. You can just drink a little."

He poured himself a glass and drank it down in one gulp. Then he looked at Pei Zhijin with sparkling eyes and said in surprise, "This wine is good. Try it."

Pei Zhijin took a sip and put down the glass, while Jiang Xue drank several glasses in a row. Pei Zhijin looked at Jiang Xue drinking happily and reminded her, "Be careful not to get drunk."

Jiang Xue had already drunk half a bottle of wine. Her face was slightly red. She looked at Pei Zhijin with a dazed look and said, "The waiter said this wine is very strong. I think it's just so-so."

"you sure?"

"I'm sure." Jiang Xue stood up with the help of the table and staggered towards Pei Zhijin.

Suddenly he bent down and approached Pei Zhijin and said, "Look if you don't believe me, I'm not drunk."

When Jiang Xue approached him, Pei Zhijin's body obviously stiffened, a look of discomfort flashed across his face, and he was about to move back, but Jiang Xue reached out and held Pei Zhijin's handsome face.

"Why are you running? Do I look scary like this?" Jiang Xue said with a pout.

Pei Zhijin was stunned, looking at Jiang Xue's fair and rosy face and pink lips, and he didn't know what to say.

"I'm asking you a question." Jiang Xue spoke again.

Pei Zhijin suddenly came back to his senses, and after a long while he spoke: "Jiang Xue."

"Hmm?" Jiang Xue answered with blurry eyes, and her body began to shake.

Pei Zhijin was about to raise his hand to steady Jiang Xue's body, but unexpectedly Jiang Xue fell headfirst into his arms.

Pei Zhijin's Adam's apple moved nervously, and he looked down at Jiang Xue, "Are you...are you okay?"

"Yeah...it's okay." Jiang Xue covered her head and stood up, patting her head: "I seem to be a little drunk."

Pei Zhijin stood up and supported Jiang Xue, saying, "I'll take you back."

Jiang Xue nodded, "Okay."

But the next second Pei Zhijin saw Jiang Xue didn't move, so he asked, "Why don't you leave?"

Jiang Xue suddenly said like a child, "I'm so tired. I don't want to walk. Carry me on your back."

Pei Zhijin: “….”

However, in the end, Pei Zhijin still carried Jiang Xue out of the morgue. Zhu Feng still followed not far away. Seeing Lord Pei carrying his own lady, Zhu Feng obviously did not react.

But I was still very happy in my heart. It seemed that the young lady's path was now on the right track and she no longer had to be threatened by King Cheng.

Just as I was thinking about it, my heart sank again. It seemed that the lady from before had not appeared for a long time, and I didn't know when she would show up at any time.

The moon was high in the sky, its light filling the streets. Pei Zhijin walked slowly down the street carrying Jiang Xue on his back. The moonlight lengthened the shadows of the two people. The night was quiet, with only Jiang Xue's humming being heard.

"My Lord, I am not drunk."

Pei Zhijin replied calmly: "Yes."

Jiang Xue closed her eyes and lay on Pei Zhijin's shoulder, murmuring, "Sir, this is how it feels to be carried on someone's back. It's so comfortable."

Pei Zhijin was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Are you Jiang Xue?"

Jiang Xue opened her eyes and asked, "Why do you ask this, sir?"

Pei Zhijin said calmly: "The previous Miss Jiang was arrogant and domineering. She is not as smart as you."

"Are you praising me or insulting me, sir?"

Pei Zhijin stopped and asked, "Do you think I am praising you or insulting you?"

Jiang Xue closed her eyes and rested her chin on Pei Zhijin's shoulder, and said with a smile: "My Lord is testing me again. Well, okay, since you want to know, I will tell you."

Jiang Xue paused and continued, "I grew up in Baishan. Although I was arrogant and disrespectful to my elders when I was young, I learned a lot in Baishan and my temper has become more restrained."

"As for King Cheng, he saved me on Baishan Mountain and has been wanting me to work for him ever since, but I have always been unwilling."

Pei Zhijin asked: "Why does he want you to work for him?"
