I'm already dressed like a fool, what's wrong with taking the regent into the bridal chamb
Chapter 85 Increase the stakes
When Chang Baicao arrived, the atmosphere was a bit weird.
Wen Qingzhi was lying on Feng Yunxiao's bed. You have to know that he is a mysophobe. Not to mention the bedding, even if someone accidentally touched the corner of his clothes, his hand would be chopped off.
Today, the sun rose from the west, and he actually saw someone sleeping in Feng Yunxiao's bed?
He stepped forward and was about to cut off Wen Qingzhi's sleeves for the examination. Just as he raised his hand and before it touched her sleeves, Wen Qingzhi's eyes opened instantly like sharp swords.
Cold, fierce eyes.
Chang Baicao was startled. His hands holding the scissors stopped in mid-air and he stammered, "Master... I, I want to see your wound."
After realizing it was Chang Baicao, Wen Qingzhi's eyes softened and she said, "No need."
She struggled to sit up, and the simple movement made her break out in a cold sweat.
Chang Baicao felt distressed when he saw her like this.
Ever since learning about Wen Qingzhi's unknown past, Chang Baicao has been wondering, if he had the same experience as Wen Qingzhi, could he be as free and easy as Wen Qingzhi?
Seeing that she was not in her room, Wen Qingzhi slowly got out of bed and asked Feng Yunxiao, "The Yuan family's affairs must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise... my injury will soon heal."
She staggered up, thinking about what she could do to increase her chances of success.
"The news of my assassination will soon spread throughout the capital. I plan to enter the palace tomorrow to seek a way out. By then, I will need your help in making arrangements."
"How confident are you? Don't you need to let this matter continue to ferment?"
"No need. The longer the night, the more trouble you have. Besides... don't you have the people in your hands? On some matters, our goals are the same. I think one day is enough for you to collect the necessary evidence, right?"
Feng Yunxiao has connections everywhere, so it would be easy for him to find out who did it, but... why would he help Wen Qingzhi?
At present, there are conflicts among the forces in the court, and he can stay out of it.
If I help Wen Qingzhi, I'm afraid I'll get myself into trouble.
He is most afraid of trouble.
"it is good."
Feng Junxiao agreed immediately, not forgetting to discuss the bargaining chips with her, "I can help you, the condition is that I give you that antidote, plus twenty more."
He almost had to break up with Wen Qingzhi before to get thirty sticks, but now he wanted twenty. He wasn't sure if Wen Qingzhi would agree, but he wanted to give it a try.
Feng Junxiao seemed to have a...successful look. Wen Qingzhi looked at his cowardly words and nodded in agreement.
"can."
His tone was gentle and his expression was calm, and he did not refuse harshly as Feng Junxiao had imagined.
"Can?"
"We have to wait until it's done."
Wen Qingzhi smiled for the first time. She was not as cold as she was towards Baili Xuance and the others. Instead, she looked relaxed.
There was a gentle smile on her soft cheeks, and the dim light reflected on her face, making her look peaceful and lovely.
When it has no thorns, Wen Qingzhi is like a lovely flower, making people want to pick it at any time.
"Think of your words for tomorrow morning court."
Feng Junxiao sat on a stool, sipping his tea leisurely and comfortably, and reminded him, "It's hard for you to win in the current situation."
“Winning or losing has never been important to me.”
When Wen Qingzhi got off the bed and was putting on her shoes, Chang Baicao took two steps in front of her and blocked her way.
"I am the Emperor's ghost. Wherever he points, I will hit him."
She smiled and came to Feng Junxiao's side.
The scent of pear blossoms on her body was overwhelmed by the smell of blood. Feng Junxiao frowned in displeasure, "Don't let blood flow in the hall tomorrow."
Wen Qingzhi paused, "Are you worried about me, or are you worried that I'll go crazy and hurt someone?"
Feng Yunxiao laughed out loud, raised his head and looked over, his eyes flickering, "I'm afraid you won't be able to hold back in court tomorrow and will stab the Yuan family to death right there in the courtroom."
During the time he was recuperating in the Marquis' Mansion, Feng Junxiao had some understanding of Wen Qingzhi's temper.
She was alone and had no ties. Given her behavior, she might really draw her sword in the hall and stab the Yuan family to pieces.
"Uh……"
Wen Qingzhi restrained her emotions and said, "No, I won't stab you."
Wen Qingzhi felt a little frustrated when her thoughts were exposed. She turned around and left without saying anything.
Chang Baicao followed her and asked worriedly after she left the room: "Master, are you really okay?"
"Nothing, I can handle it myself, don't worry."
She knows what's going on and won't joke about herself.
"Master, I have written down some of the less toxic prescriptions I use on a daily basis. You can try them first."
"If it doesn't work tomorrow, I'll poison them for you!"
Chang Baicao quickly stepped forward and supported the unsteady Wen Qingzhi, "Master..."
"I am fine."
She waved her hand, indicating she was fine, blinking dizzily, "Go keep an eye on the small mountain village. It's getting colder these past two days. Tell them to speed up and not be lazy. The sooner they cover themselves up, the sooner they'll stop freezing."
"Don't worry, Master."
Even if Wen Qingzhi's age was used, Chang Baicao could still be considered her elder. After learning about her past, Chang Baicao began to treat Wen Qingzhi like her own child. Seeing her like this, how could he not feel distressed?
"You are calmer than Wang Yi. I am naturally confident in your ability to handle matters."
She used to be unafraid of pain because no one paid any attention to her. Besides her teammates' ridicule, she had no other words.
now……
Everyone in the mansion would ask her "Does it hurt?" Gradually, she developed a sense of pain and could feel it.
The pain in her arm clearly reminded her that she was also a flesh-and-blood person and was cared for by others.
Her eyes gradually became sore, and although there was no ripple, it was enough to leave a mark on her heart.
After sending Wen Qingzhi back to the room, Chunyu, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately ran over, his eyes red, and asked with a choked voice: "Miss, are you okay?"
She looked at Wen Qingzhi's sleeves covered in blood and cried even louder, "Why is it always you who gets hurt? You've been through a lot, sob sob..."
She cried and wiped her tears, led Wen Qingzhi to sit down, and sobbed, "My servant, my mother, made you a hen soup, stewed with red dates. You have been bleeding these past few days, so you need to replenish your body."
Chunyu served the soup and asked her to come over and sit down. "You drink the soup first. I'll go get you some hot water."
Looking at Chunyu's back as she trotted away, Wen Qingzhi's cold heart warmed up, and she lowered her head and drank the soup obediently.
The temperature was just right, a little hot, just the temperature she liked.
The hen soup is very sweet and fresh, maybe because of the dates?
She wasn't good at cooking, so she didn't know the exact reason, but it tasted good.
While she was drinking a bowl of soup, Chunyu came in with warm water, washed her and applied medicine to her wound.
Looking at the horrific wound on Wen Qingzhi's arm, Chunyu couldn't hold back her tears again, but they were wiped away by Wen Qingzhi's fingertips.
"No pain."
"How can it not hurt..."
Chunyu lowered her head and muttered softly, extremely dissatisfied, "The Yuan family is really going too far, and they dare to call themselves generals, aren't they ashamed?"
In Chunyu's heart, a general should be as upright as the men of the Wen family, and definitely not an ungrateful person like the Yuan family.
"If they were afraid of being embarrassed, they wouldn't do these things to embarrass themselves."
Wen Qingzhi finished speaking, waited for Chunyu to tie the knot, rinsed her mouth, and sat on the bed. "How is my sister-in-law? Did she say anything inconvenient?"
"No,"
Chunyu shook her head. "Young Madam and the young master have rarely come out since they moved into the young master's courtyard. They eat all the food we deliver to them every day, leaving nothing behind."
"Chun Shuang said that she would occasionally hear the young lady crying quietly late at night... She went to ask about it a few times, but the young lady always said nothing was wrong, so she never went back."
"..."
Wen Qingzhi was silent for a moment, and finally sighed.
"I've been so busy lately that I haven't been able to visit them much. I'll take her for a walk after the Yuan family's affairs are settled."
She knew that Jiang Yao couldn't let go of her brother, and she must be feeling uncomfortable staying in her brother's yard, constantly thinking about him.
I have been in this world for quite some time and have been dealing with trivial matters. I have not had the opportunity to inquire about the specific cause of death of the Wen family.
After the Yuan family incident is over, she will start investigating this matter.
I promised Wen Qingzhi to give her justice, and I will definitely do it.
