Chapter 265 Xiang Lan and her husband
The silver needle that shot into her body was not only poisoned, but also had a bone fragrance.
The medicinal effect of Bone Incense can last for one month. During this month, the person who is infected with Bone Incense will radiate a peculiar fragrance from the inside out. The medicine is the blood of the person who applies the medicine, so only the person who applies the medicine can smell the aroma of Bone Incense on her body.
So within this month, no matter where she escaped to, Su Chenyu would be able to find her.
From the very beginning, Su Chenyu had never thought about getting anything out of Madam Mei. This woman was too determined. But if she let her go, maybe there would be other clues.
"Yanyu, you guys should pack up and leave Ning County first."
"Son, won't you come with us?"
"As you said, these bandits still have secrets. We plan to go to the Yun Village. It's not safe for you to stay here. Leave first."
Yanyu was worried about Su Chenyu, but knew that if she stayed here she would only be a burden to them, so she obediently packed up her things and prepared to leave.
Aunt Xu asked, "Sir, what should we do with Miss Xiang?"
"Is she awake?"
Madam Xu nodded, and Su Chenyu went upstairs: "I'll go see her."
Xiang Lan has woken up and is sitting at the table seemingly calmly. She has regained her strength and could have left directly, but she doesn't know where to go.
Su Chenyu knocked on the door. Xiang Lan immediately stood up and went to open the door. When she saw that it was Su Chenyu, she pursed her lips and said, "Honey, you're back."
"Have you recovered?"
Xiang Lan nodded, and Su Chenyu sat down at the table. Seeing that she was standing awkwardly, she smiled and said, "You don't need to care about these etiquettes when you are out and about. Sit down."
"Thanks for saving me today."
"It was Mu Cheng who saved you. If you want to thank him, just tell him later." Getting back to the point, Su Chenyu asked, "Miss Xiang, do you want to go back to Beijing? I'll send a few people to escort you back so that you don't run into danger on the way again."
Xiang Lan didn't know where he got the courage from, and replied: "Husband, can I go to Xixia with you?"
"What?" Su Chenyu was a little surprised.
Xiang Lan quickly explained: "I definitely don't want to find out any information, it's just that I can't find the place I want to go."
"Lord Xiang must be very worried about you. Aren't you going back to the capital?"
"He always puts his ideas on me, doing everything for my own good. But I don't want to live like that, trapped in the backyard for the rest of my life, never able to get out."
Mucheng walked to the door and happened to hear these words. He slowly put down his hand that was about to knock on the door.
Su Chenyu smiled and said, "You are different from other girls."
"It's probably because of my grandmother. I was raised by her since I was young. When I was young, my health was not good. My grandmother personally took me to seek medical treatment everywhere. I traveled across mountains and rivers and saw too many beautiful scenes. Maybe it was from that time that I didn't want to be constrained. Even after I recovered from my illness, I kept traveling around, always wanting to see more. Maybe one day, I really couldn't leave the capital anymore."
Listening to Xiang Lan's words, Su Chenyu felt the same way. After seeing the vast world outside, how could she be willing to be trapped in the small backyard?
"Your grandmother is a strange person."
Speaking of her grandmother, Xiang Lan's tone was filled with nostalgia: "My grandmother was not a lady from a wealthy family. She was an embroiderer when she was young. She liked to travel around and learn different embroidery techniques. If it weren't for my grandfather, she would not have been willing to stay in the capital. Unfortunately, my grandfather passed away early. My grandmother once said that I was her only joy for the rest of her life."
At this moment, Su Chenyu finally understood why Xiang Lan insisted on observing mourning for her grandmother for three years. She traveled to so many places, wasn't she also seeing this beautiful land for her grandmother?
