Chapter 1044 No One Is Innocent
"Don't worry, Princess. I will definitely take care of this matter."
Old Madam Xu naturally knew that Xiao had bad intentions, and her face was full of anger.
"How dare she appear before me? She has harmed my son..."
The old lady interrupted her words. Jiang Wan knew that she wanted to say that it was the Xiao family that caused the Marquis to lose the ability to have children.
If it weren't for Xiao's jealousy, the Marquis' Mansion would have been full of descendants by now.
"This princess doesn't know what she wants to do, but she just wants to remind the old lady to protect Xiao Lei."
Jiang Wan said with a smile: "As for Xiao Qiong, don't worry, old lady, the people in the palace will protect her.
Now, is the old lady still determined to let Xiao Qiong go back with you?"
There were dangers everywhere. Old Madam Xu finally understood her grandson's worries. She sighed and said:
"Please take good care of Xiao Qiong, Princess."
She finally gave up the idea of taking Xiao Qiong with her. When they returned to the front hall, Xiao Lei had said almost the same thing as Xiao Qiong.
This was the first time the brother and sister were separated since they grew up. Although they were extremely reluctant, they remained determined.
Xiao Qiong watched her grandmother and brother leave the palace, secretly wiping away her tears.
"Don't be too sad."
Jiang Wan comforted him softly, "Our separation now is for a better reunion in the future."
"Um."
Xiao Qiong nodded heavily, "But Princess, I still want to go back to the Orphanage Hall to learn embroidery and literacy with my sisters, is that okay?"
There are many children of her age in the orphanage, and Xiao Qiong has already fallen in love with life there.
"Wait a little longer, until Xiao and her people leave Jiuzhou, and I'll arrange for someone to take you there."
Jiang Wan was also considering Xiao Qiong's safety, she was afraid that the Xiao family would do something desperate.
"Yes, princess."
Xiao Qiong nodded obediently. Jiang Wan couldn't help but stroke her belly gently. It would be great if there was such a well-behaved little girl in her belly.
Just as he was thinking about it, Song Jiuyuan came back from outside. He was exhausted and there was a faint smell of blood on his body.
So he didn't get too close to Jiang Wan, and just said, "Those people will be executed at noon.
The scene was a bit bloody, and Wanwan was pregnant, so I'll just go to the execution ground."
"Um."
Jiang Wan nodded, and thinking of Xiaoxiao, she couldn't help but ask, "Xiaoxiao and Madam Meng..."
"Mrs. Meng is involved in many things, so it's hard for her to escape death."
Song Jiuyuan thought of Xiaoxiao and said, "She is innocent and her crime does not deserve death.
But I also encountered a lot of dirty things, so I was exiled to the border."
The situation on the border of Jiuzhou is also very difficult, and Xiaoxiao's life may not be easy, but she is lucky to be alive.
"Um."
Jiang Wan did not plead for Xiaoxiao. Song Jiuyuan was so busy that Jiang Wan took a short rest.
"Sister Jiang."
A familiar voice came into Jiang Wan's ears. She slowly opened her eyes and met Ruoshui's big eyes.
"Why are you here?"
Jiang Wan glanced at Ruoshui who was standing beside her bed with a hint of shock, and said speechlessly:
"People who scare others will scare them to death."
"I just saw that you were sleeping well."
Ruoshui scratched her head awkwardly, and then shared it with Jiang Wan excitedly.
"Sister Jiang, I have researched the poison recipe you gave me."
As she was about to take out the packet of poison from her sleeve, Jiang Wan stopped her speechlessly.
"Wait, are you sure you want to open these in front of a pregnant woman?"
Ruoshui: ...
She realized what was happening and took the medicine bag back awkwardly, "I was just eager to share it with you."
"Hold on."
Jiang Wan yawned lazily, changed her clothes, and took Ruoshui to her pharmacy.
First, the two put on homemade masks and then put on homemade protective clothing.
Ruoshui stared at the place full of pharmacies, her face full of envy, "Wow, Sister Jiang, your pharmacy is amazing!"
There were so many things inside that she was extremely envious.
"poison?"
Jiang Wan stretched out her hand, and Ruoshui finally reacted and took out a poison bag and gave it to Jiang Wan.
While Jiang Wan was carefully observing the poison package, Ruoshui was carefully observing Jiang Wan's pharmacy.
There were some machines in there that she couldn't understand, and she couldn't help herself.
"Sister Jiang, what is this?"
“For filtering.”
Jiang Wan drew the blueprints and asked Song Jiuyuan to hire someone to make small machines such as distillation and filtration.
There are also many tools for traditional preparation of medicinal materials.
Ruoshui was overwhelmed and wished she could stay in the pharmacy.
"Sister Jiang, your pharmacy has so many things."
"Well, if you like, you can have someone build one."
Jiang Wan thought for a moment and said, "Many of these things were collected by the prince.
If you want something, I can ask him for you."
When Song Jiuyuan was mentioned, Ruoshui had an awkward expression. Although she wanted him very much, she didn't really want to find Song Jiuyuan.
"Your poison is pretty good."
Jiang Wan has already checked the poison developed by Ruoshui, "But there are still some minor flaws."
She explained it softly to Ruoshui, who listened attentively and suddenly understood.
"Sister Jiang, you are so amazing, but I heard from people in the palace that you are a very good doctor?"
"Can't a doctor know poison?"
Jiang Wan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and threw another poison prescription to Ruoshui, "The medicinal materials are all available in the pharmacy.
You can study it and ask me if you have any questions. "
"Wow……"
Ruoshui was so surprised that she held the poison recipe and was unwilling to leave. Jiang Wan could only laugh helplessly. She waited for Song Jiuyuan to come back and told him.
"Ruoshui is back."
"Um?"
Song Jiuyuan looked confused. With Ruoshui's personality, would she easily come to the palace to find him?
"Come to me to discuss the poison recipe."
Jiang Wan talked about Ruoshui's performance, and finally said to Song Jiuyuan: "You build her one similar to my pharmacy.
I believe she won’t want to run around and will definitely be reluctant to leave.”
"I'll think about it."
Song Jiuyuan was somewhat tempted, but he hadn't thought it through completely, and Jiang Wan didn't force him.
All in all, it is good progress.
Perhaps out of reluctance, Xiaoxiao wanted to see Jiang Wan. When Jiang Wan heard what Song Jiuyuan said, his expression was full of helplessness.
"If you don't want to see her, don't force yourself."
"Let's meet her and see what she wants to say."
Jiang Wan thought that she was just sitting there doing nothing, so she finally decided to meet Xiaoxiao.
When she arrived, Xiaoxiao was squatting in the corner, holding a wooden stick in her hand, drawing circles on the ground.
Seeing Jiang Wan, Xiao Xiao's eyes lit up, "Princess, thank you for coming to see me."
"You want to ask for mercy?"
Jiang Wan looked at Xiaoxiao in front of her. She seemed much more haggard.
The girl is only in her teens, her eyes have lost their luster, but she is still maintaining her own personality.
"Princess, I want to plead for my mother. She is actually very pitiful."
"Your mother was executed at noon."
Jiang Wan simply told Xiaoxiao the answer directly. Xiaoxiao almost fainted and she held on to the iron bars of the cell.
“Princess, my mother was sold to someone else as a child bride by her parents when she was a refugee. That family often abused her.
When she was escaping, she met people from Blackback Ridge, and that’s when she started on this path of no return.”
