Li Sisi heard this and said, "Xiao Yunchen, he's been playing all these tricks behind my back. If I hadn't seen it today, I wouldn't know what he's been up to outside."
When she arrived at the backyard, Li Sisi was dumbfounded.
With so many rooms, which one should Xiao Yunchen choose?
Li Nian held her back and whispered, "Sisi, keep your voice down!" She pointed to one of the houses and said, "Xiao Yunchen is in that room."
Li Sisi asked in surprise: "How do you know?"
"I asked Xiaohong to follow Ruliu in advance." Li Nian pulled Li Sisi and tiptoed towards the window. They could vaguely hear the conversation inside.
Xiao Yunchen's usually clear and gentle voice was now filled with gloom: "Where are they now? Have they returned?"
Ru Liu replied, "I came over when they were inside. They couldn't find you, so they must have gone back."
"Should?" Xiao Yunchen said in a cold tone.
Ru Liu's voice was noticeably nervous. "Sir, they've already found Princess Su's room. They're probably going to keep her here for a while. Why don't you leave now?"
Li Sisi didn't expect that it was actually arranged by Xiao Yunchen.
With a dark face, she walked to the door and knocked: "Xiao Yunchen! Come out!"
Inside the house, Xiao Yunchen was startled and glanced at Ruliu beside him.
Ru Liu shrank her head and watched Xiao Yunchen go to open the door himself.
The man who had a cold expression just now was stunned for a moment when he saw Li Sisi, and his facial features softened.
"Madam, why did you come here?"
"If I hadn't come, I wouldn't know what you were doing hiding from me!" Li Sisi brushed past Xiao Yunchen, walked into the room, and looked around.
There were only simple furnishings, which were in the uniform style of the inn. There was only a map and a letter on the table.
Li Sisi walked towards the table.
Ru Liu hurriedly spoke up to stop him: "Madam, these are all important matters in the court..."
"Ru Liu!" Xiao Yunchen interrupted Ru Liu and walked over to Li Sisi, whispering, "I've been investigating the Su Mansion lately. I suspect they're colluding with bandits in the south and secretly raising private soldiers."
Li Sisi was stunned and frowned as she asked, "So, was it really you who designed the drug that Su Muyan was given? What do you want to do? Sell your body?"
Xiao Yunchen's face was full of surprise, as if to say, "You actually think of me like this?"
He quickly shook his head. "No, my original intention today was just to get close to Su Muyan's eldest brother, Su Jingming, because we found out that most of the bandits in the south were contacted by Su Jingming. But I didn't expect him to drug my wine today. It just so happened that Su Muyan's cousin has long had feelings for her, so I did him a favor."
Li Sisi suddenly understood: "So it was Su Muyan who drugged you? Then what about you? You didn't drink it, right?" As she spoke, she looked up and down at the person in front of her carefully.
Xiao Yunchen soothed her gently, "Don't worry, my lady. I exchanged the ginseng wine with Su Muyan's cousin."
Li Sisi felt relieved after hearing this, and thought of the man in the moon-white robe she met when she and Li Nian went to catch the adulterer.
"It seems that Su Muyan and her cousin didn't make it. I went there too early and they didn't make it in time."
When Xiao Yunchen heard her words, he was stunned for a moment, but after reacting, he said with a smile: "No problem, given Zhao Ju's temperament, he will not give up the opportunity to marry Su Muyan."
Xiao Yunchen sighed softly: "Today's events are my fault for not thinking things through. However, this matter involves so many things, and I don't want to drag you into it."
Li Sisi glared at him angrily: "People say husband and wife are one. If something happens to you, how can I hide?"
"My lady is right."
Seeing the atmosphere between the two gradually becoming awkward, Li Nian whispered, "Ru Liu!" and pointed outside the house, mouthing, "Let's get out!"
————
Room No. 1, on the second floor of the inn.
The door was suddenly kicked open.
Su Jingming rushed into the room with a group of people.
A smile of triumph welled up in his heart, and he scanned the room with a sharp gaze.
But there was only Su Muyan on the bed. Her clothes were disheveled, her face was flushed and tears were in her eyes.
The guards who followed Su Jingming in widened their eyes and felt their whole bodies become hot and stiff in an instant.
Su Muyan, who was lying on the bed, seemed to notice someone entering the room. She immediately forced herself to look up, and when she saw who it was, she felt like she had finally seen her savior.
The whimpering moan in his mouth turned into a crying cry for help.
"Brother, help me... I feel so uncomfortable..."
Su Jingming coldly ordered everyone else to leave.
Su Muyan's forced rationality collapsed after seeing her loved ones. Half of the strap on her shoulder fell off, but she was completely unaware.
She staggered as if drunk, trying to get closer to Su Jingming, murmuring softly, "Brother... help me, please..."
A hint of sinisterness flashed across Su Jingming's eyes, and he asked coldly, "Where is Xiao Yunchen?"
His younger sister's hot body crashed into his arms. Su Jingming frowned and took a big step forward to pull the bed sheet over her.
He took out an antidote from his sleeve and roughly stuffed it into Su Muyan's mouth, saying in a cold tone: "Eat it."
The medicine gradually took effect, Su Muyan's continuously rising body temperature gradually cooled down, and her blurred consciousness gradually became clear.
Feelings of anger and humiliation swept over her instantly. Su Muyan clutched the bed sheet tightly and looked up at her own brother.
Her voice trembled slightly with anger: "Brother, you were the one who gave me the medicine, right?"
Su Jingming looked down at her with an indifferent expression: "So what?"
Su Muyan didn't expect him to admit it so naturally. Her eyes, which were already filled with tears, could no longer control her emotions and fell down in an instant.
