She looked back at Mrs. Li, feeling a little annoyed:
"I don't know the names of those women, nor the name of the poison, so I can't collect it for now."
Mrs. Li hurriedly comforted Qin Nian: "Don't be discouraged. When you meet them, you will find out."
Qin Nian was thinking about Su Bi and was about to go out, but Li Pozi continued to encourage him:
"Xiao Nian, you are the smartest kid. Don't panic when something happens. Think it over in your brain and work hard."
Qin Nian looked at the wise old man in front of her, and her mood instantly improved. She blinked her big, bright eyes:
"Grandma, I'll remember what you said."
After saying that, the man came out.
Qin Nian thought for a moment, opened the door of the guest room, and called out, "Hey, please send me a kettle of hot water."
"Okay, wait a moment."
The waiter's voice came from downstairs, as if he had just gone downstairs.
Qin Nian observed for a while.
From east to west, there is a long corridor running through the building, with the staircase in the middle of the corridor and guest rooms on both sides of the corridor.
On the easternmost side of the corridor, there is an octagonal lantern, and on the westernmost side, there are two octagonal lanterns.
Are the guests living in the innermost part of the west side more distinguished than those in the east side?
Su Bi opened the door and came out, looking at Qin Nian and asked, "Ask the waiter to bring some hot water?"
Qin Nian smiled and nodded: "It's a long night, I can't sleep anyway, so I'll make some tea.
Would you like a drink too?"
"good."
Su Bi followed Qin Nian into her guest room.
The guy came up carrying a pot of water.
Qin Nian gave him a piece of silver: "My dear brother, thank you for your hard work."
Nowadays, few people would look down upon an innkeeper, let alone give him money.
The waiter quickly put down the kettle and clasped his hands together in front of Qin Nian: "Thank you, young lady. Thank you so much."
"Hey, are all these guest rooms of yours the same price?"
The guy shook his head and said, "No, the ones on the east side of the corridor are cheaper, and the ones on the west side, which is where you live, are more expensive."
Qin Nian said casually, "Indeed, there is one more lantern in this corridor than over there."
Because of the silver, the clerk was willing to say a few more words, but his voice was very low: "Originally, there was a lantern hanging on both sides of the corridor.
A few days ago, Princess Lanling moved in, and the shopkeeper ordered people to hang two lanterns in the corridor to facilitate their entry and exit."
Qin Nian seemed shocked by the waiter's words: "Princess? You have a princess living here?
The princess of our Daliang Kingdom?"
"Of course, it's very expensive. Sometimes when I want to eat something, I ask the maid to bring it to my room.
You saw it in the tavern just now. The woman being flirted with by those three men was her maid.
Ouch, the man who was scalded has all the skin on his face fallen off. He can’t live without skin.
Okay, I have to go downstairs. The shopkeeper will say I am lazy and scold me now."
The guy went down with great speed, his legs were really fast.
Su Bi's eyes were filled with praise, and he whispered, "Now we know who our opponent is."
"Princess Lanling?"
Qin Nian raised her eyebrows slightly, questioning: "Why does she come to this border instead of staying in the capital or the palace?
No matter what she did, no matter who she was, if she killed someone, she must pay with her life."
“Xiao Nian, I just observed that the windowsill outside the window of this inn is very narrow.
People can't stand, so it's unlikely that they'll come and poison you in the middle of the night.
You can sleep peacefully, I'll be next door, nothing will happen to you."
Su Bi didn't understand why Qin Nian's little face was suddenly filled with smiles.
"Su Bi, that Princess Lanling must have thought that she was very skilled in poisoning and it was unlikely that she would do it in the inn.
If they want to deal with us, they should be on their way tomorrow."
Su Bi snorted coldly: "Even if she doesn't make a move, we have to make a move. We must avenge our uncle."
After chatting for a few more words, Su Bi went back to his guest room next door.
Qin Nian entered the space: "Grandma, I know who that woman is."
She didn't want the poison to fall into the room, so Qin Nian came to the yard and thought: All the poisons of Princess Lanling - collect them!
With a "click", two exquisite little boxes fell at the feet.
Qin Nian kicked it to the wall and looked at Mrs. Li and told her:
"Grandma, there must be a mechanism on this box. Once you press the mechanism, the poison will come out.
You must not touch it."
"Don't worry, I'll be counting the bills in my own space and won't touch that thing."
After taking Princess Lanling's poison in, Qin Nian was no longer worried about Su Bi. She did not go out, but stayed in the space that night, and went out early the next morning.
After checking out, we went to the pub on the first floor.
Breakfast consisted of meat-filled buns, a bowl of rice porridge per person, and a small plate of pickles.
After finishing their meal, the two men came out of the tavern and led their horses out of the inn.
After leaving the town, Qin Nian looked at Su Bi and said, “We all left, but they didn’t come out.
Didn't he recognize you? Don't you want to punish us?"
"The maid yesterday, I'm sure she recognized me. She was harassed by the drunken man and retreated towards us. He must have wanted to poison her.
Don't worry, they will catch up."
Su Bi's eyes moved slightly, and he considered for a while:
"After I was injured, I couldn't understand why that woman killed me as soon as we met.
I don't even know her, let alone celebrate with her. Not to mention my uncle, who was imprisoned in prison for ten years, there is no way he could offend her.
Forget about that for now. When that woman catches up, the answer will come naturally."
Two people rode their horses slowly.
As they got farther and farther away from the town, a winding mountain road appeared in front of them and the two began to walk around the mountain.
Just then, the sound of horse bells was heard behind.
Su Bi snorted coldly: "Here it comes."
His eyes fell on Qin Nian's face: "Xiao Nian, you must be careful, don't get poisoned.
As long as she is not poisoned, she can't hurt us with her abilities."
The poison was stored in the space, so how could she be poisoned? However, she didn't want to expose the space, so she couldn't tell Su Bi.
Ten women came up next.
The first person was wearing a blue skirt and had a blue feather more than two feet long stuck in her hair.
Her skin was as white as snow, and every feature of her face was beautiful, absolutely gorgeous.
Among the maids and women following behind him, there was indeed the woman who scalded people with chicken soup.
"You two, stop right there for this princess."
An extremely arrogant voice came out of the blue-clothed woman's mouth.
Su Bi looked at her coldly: "Even if you don't tell us, we can't leave.
We have to avenge ourselves from last time."
Princess Lanling sneered: "Revenge? Just the two of you?"
Qin Nian looked at her: "Yes, just the two of us."
Princess Lanling pointed the whip in her hand at Su Bi with an extremely arrogant attitude:
"This princess is asking you, who helped you get rid of the poison last time you were poisoned?"
"Why should I tell you? Don't think that just because you are a princess, everyone in the world has to respect you.
In our eyes, you are just a fool who uses poison to do bad things."
