Pei Jinzhi is very heavy.

The poison made his whole body stiff as a rock.

Sang Wan felt breathless, and something was poking at her waist and abdomen, making her feel very uncomfortable. She couldn't help but twist her body and adjust her posture:

"Just say it. You, you are not allowed to treat me lightly again."

In the darkness, Pei Jinzhi blushed:

"Don't move around anymore."

This was even more unbearable for him than killing him.

Sang Wan became rebellious and twisted like a maggot.

Pei Jinzhi couldn't help but bite her lips, kissing her even more fiercely than last time. Sang Wan couldn't even breathe and didn't dare to move anymore.

"Have you behaved yourself?"

Pei Jinzhi let go of her lips, reluctantly.

Sang Wan groaned as a response.

"The night is long, there's plenty of time. First, tell me how you knew about your father's death, how you entered the Tianxuan Sect, and what your intentions are in approaching me."

Pei Jinzhi asked questions in an organized manner, but with a touch more tenderness than when he was interrogating a criminal.

Perhaps it was because the two of them were too close, or perhaps it was because his voice was no longer cold, Sang Wan hesitated for a moment, and then told her how Madam Cheng had set a trap for her to get on the pleasure boat, and how she had told her about Sang Jun's death.

But she still concealed the matter of the imperial edict.

If Pei Jinzhi didn't mention it, she naturally wouldn't bring it up on her own initiative.

Pei Jinzhi listened to her quietly and said softly:

"She let you get close to me in order to kill me?"

"Yeah." Sang Wan felt a little regretful, "It's a pity that I don't know martial arts."

Li Jiu and Pei Jinzhi were almost inseparable, so she had no chance to attack at all.

Fortunately, she did not act impulsively. Pei Jinzhi did not look like a sickly person tonight, and his martial arts skills were not weak.

"Humph, you're still feeling wronged."

Pei Jinzhi was annoyed.

"The hatred for killing my father is irreconcilable."

Sang Wan took advantage of his unpreparedness and bit him hard.

It was hard to see clearly in the darkness, and he bit Pei Jin's chin.

Pei Jinzhi hissed, his throat rolling and his voice changing: "Are you born in the Year of the Dog?"

"You are the dog. You bit my shoulder and the teeth marks haven't gone away yet." Sang Wan held a grudge.

Pei Jinzhi sneered:

"Then we're even. Why didn't you poison him before?"

Sang Wan bit her lip and said unhappily:

"If I regret it, I should poison you to death."

"Why do you still want to ask Jianing about what happened back then?"

For some reason, he was always looking forward to hearing her true feelings.

"I don't believe everything Madam Cheng said."

Sang Wan thought about it and said truthfully: "After all, you and Li Jiu are pretty good to me."

Not bad... Pei Jinzhi was somewhat satisfied with this answer, if Li Jiu was removed.

"It's not stupid, there is still hope."

Sang Wan couldn't help rolling her eyes.

"Now, it's your turn to speak." Sang Wan also wanted to know whether he had killed Sang Jun.

"That day, I went to the temple to burn incense and pray for my deceased mother, and I happened to pass by. When I arrived, the people from the Tianxuan Sect had already started a massacre. The servants of the princess's guard were either dead or injured. Princess Jinghe fainted, and a man in black was raising a sword to kill a baby..."

This is consistent with what Princess Jianing said, that the baby was the unlucky one pushed out by Princess Jianing and killed.

"It was your father who stopped the accomplice. He swung his knife to block the man's sword, and the baby was able to survive."

Sang Jun protected Prince Yun Xiao Yi, which Pei Jinzhi did not expect.

What he didn't expect was that fate would push Sang Wan to his side again.

Sang Wan was also shocked: "My father? Didn't my father go to assassinate him?"

"Yes, I can't figure it out."

Pei Jinzhi continued:

"Sang Jun got into an argument with his accomplices, and someone took advantage of the situation and stabbed him. The knife pierced his abdomen."

Sang Wan gasped and blurted out:

"It's Jianing! It's her!!"

Jianing did say that she stabbed someone, so she also had a contribution.

Unexpectedly, the person she stabbed was Sang Jun.

"It's not her, don't guess blindly." Pei Jinzhi denied.

Sang Wan bit her lip tightly and did not argue with him.

It must be her, it must be the Princess of Jianing County.

Seeing her silence, Pei Jinzhi continued:

"Sang Wan, do you know what happened next?"

"Don't keep me in suspense. Tell me now."

Sang Wan pinched his face with both hands, wishing she could squeeze out everything at once.

Pei Jinzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he could only pout and continue, it was really funny:

"For some unknown reason, Sang Jun turned his gun around and engaged in a fierce battle with his accomplices."

"Why is this?"

Sang Wan didn't understand, did Sang Jun betray him at the last minute?

"Madam Cheng was also going to die, but when your father put the sword to her neck, she knelt down and begged for mercy. Sang Jun spared her. And I spared both of them because he protected Prince Yun, Xiao Yi. One of the conditions I spared them that day was that they would never do evil again and were not allowed to appear in the capital again."

Is that baby King Yun? He has such a great background.

No wonder the Jianing County official was scared to death.

"Sang Jun's injuries are too severe. I think he's also..."

Pei Jinzhi didn't say anything else.

Sang Jun knew that his injury was beyond saving, so he endured the pain and went all the way south back to Fengshui Town. He died only after seeing his family.

"My dad, my dad..." Sang Wan burst into tears.

"You should thank your father for stopping before it was too late and leaving a way out for your Sang family."

Pei Jinzhi looked at her. He couldn't see her face clearly in the dark night, but her eyes were still shining.

"Sang Wan, I don't want to kill you. Don't do anything stupid. Leave Fengshui Town, the farther away the better."

Sang Wan was startled: "Aren't you here to kill me tonight?"

"Why should I come to kill you?" Pei Jinzhi murmured.

It was more of a farewell than a warning.

"But you know that Madam Cheng and I are in the same group."

"She is she, and you are you."

Sang Wan couldn't help but pinch his collar, feeling uneasy:

"Pei Jinzhi, the servants in the medicine shop are all innocent, don't kill them."

"Whether he is innocent or not, I will find out for myself."

"But..." She felt very uncomfortable.

"Don't worry. How can I get rid of the poison in my body?"

"It's not poison, it's just a paralyzing drug. It will wear off in two hours."

Pei Jinzhi frowned: "Two hours? Is there no antidote?"

Sang Wan shook her head, really not.

"I can only poison, not detoxify."

She made this herself to escape.

"Oh." Pei Jinzhi looked helpless.

A low chuckle was gentler than usual, and it felt inexplicably doting.

But the smile was so fleeting that Sang Wan couldn't catch it.

"You've done me and the Sang family a favor, and I want to repay you. There's something wrong with your medicine."

Cheng Buyu's method was very secretive. He put conflicting substances in different prescriptions, one for soaking and the other for internal use. When viewed separately, both are good detoxifying medicines; but when used at the same time, the drugs would conflict with each other and instead stimulate internal toxins, leading to nerve paralysis.

Sang Wan had learned how to use poison and knew the strangeness of this.

Pei Jinzhi was silent for a moment: "I know."

Sang Wan blushed and turned away: "I'm sorry for talking too much."

Pei Jinzhi looked at her deeply: "Do you believe me?"

Sang Wan lowered her eyes, bit her lip and said nothing.

There was another long silence.

Pei Jinzhi pressed his lips tightly against hers:

"Leave Fengshui Town. Don't force me to kill you."
