Chapter 354 Send the Coffin
Qiao Jibai stood at the door and watched the master and servant leave. He slowly turned back into the house, walked to the table, picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and took a bite.
Jiang Ying said, "Sir, let's just tell the Second Miss, okay?"
Qiao Jibai said calmly, "What's wrong with that? Isn't that what King Jing meant? Just wait and see. It won't be long before a good show will be staged in the capital."
Qiao Wanyan returned to the Shangshu Mansion and did not speak the whole way. Zi Yuan finally could not help but said, "Miss, if what the Second Young Master said is true, then King Jing gave you a bowl of his heart's blood to cure the poison. Should we prepare some supplements and send them over?"
Qiao Wanyan sat on the couch and frowned slightly when she heard this, "Blood in my heart."
She said calmly, "A doctor once told me that blood is the dirtiest thing. Is it a quack to use something like this as a medicine to make an antidote? Is he lying on purpose because he has a grudge against He Yanli?"
Zi Yuan was stunned for a moment, "The dirtiest one? Will the young lady have diarrhea?"
Qiao Wanyan looked up at her and said, "Little idiot, go play somewhere else."
Zi Yuan pouted and stepped back, and the room became quiet again.
Qiao Wanyan closed her eyes and placed her hands on the armrest, gently rubbing her solar plexus. The sound of "heart blood" was scary, and drinking a whole bowl of it might put her life in danger.
"Lu Jinye."
After saying that, Lu Jinye opened the window from the outside, put his hands on the window frame and replied lazily: "What are you doing?"
Qiao Wanyan ordered: "Go check what's going on in Prince Jing's mansion recently."
"The gates of Prince Jing's mansion have been closed since the day before you went to Yuxiu Garden, and have not been opened to this day. Prince Jing is ill and has taken leave and has not even attended court. He should be dying." Lu Jinye told the truth in the first half and made a wish in the second half.
After he finished speaking, he added: "Why don't you just send a coffin instead of supplements?"
Although I didn't go to the old house with her, I heard what she and Ziyuan said just now.
The love poison was solved by King Jing.
"How do you know so clearly?"
Lu Jinye suddenly choked up and didn't say a word for a long time because he didn't know how to start.
Qiao Wanyan stretched out the last syllable meaningfully, "Oh~ When dealing with a loved one, one must be careful of every move. I was careless, please don't blame me."
With a "bang", the window was slammed shut.
Lu Jinye walked away with a dark face.
Qiao Wanyan shouted, "Come back!"
Lu Jinye came back with a dark face again, "What?"
Qiao Wanyan hooked her finger and said, "Come in."
Lu Jinye went in, and Qiao Wanyan asked him to get closer. He probably guessed what she wanted to do, and moved his face closer.
"Hmm——" a light hum was heard.
Lu Jinye had been beaten up by Qiao Wanyan many times, and he had never uttered a word even when he was covered in bruises. This was the first time he cried out.
Lu Jinye took a step back and looked at her in disbelief.
"What are you looking at? I slapped you and you don't even feel any pain now. Do you think I will slap you? Remember, next time you dare to fall and fight in front of me, I will pinch you like this again."
When pinching someone, you have to pinch them a little bit, and use your fingernails, because that hurts the most.
Lu Jinye covered his neck and didn't like this punishment at all.
"Go away."
Lu Jinye turned and left, closing the door with force, then loosened his grip and gently closed it.
Qiao Wanyan withdrew her thoughts. Prince Jing's Mansion had not been opened to this day. He Yanli must be extremely ill and his life might even be in danger.
As for guilt and uneasiness, she didn't feel a bit.
This was not something she begged He Yanli to do, but something he was willing to do. If you give, you must get a certain reward, so his original purpose was not purely for himself, but to kidnap her softness and kindness, forcing her to feel that she owed him for the rest of her life.
At present, the prince still doesn't know that his love poison has been cured, so Yun Heng should know the prescription for the antidote. Where did He Yanli get the antidote for Qiao Jibai?
Putting all this aside, the prince still doesn't know that he has been cured, and he believes in his heart that he still likes Prince Jing, so no matter what he has done during this period, he will not think it is his fault.
During dinner, Qiao Yihuan came over.
Qiao Wanyan hadn't seen her for a while. She watched her walk in and took out a bowl of Codonopsis pigeon soup from the food box in her hand and put it on the table.
"Even after such a mess with my family, you still brought me soup as if nothing had happened. You are really tolerant."
Qiao Yihuan smiled and said, "Sister, you are joking. After all, we are a family. This is the Codonopsis pigeon soup that I personally made. I heard that you were ill in Yuxiu Garden, so I made it specially for you to nourish your body."
Qiao Wanyan chuckled, "A family? If it weren't for your mother's efforts, we wouldn't be a family."
The smile on Qiao Yihuan's lips froze.
Zi Yuan said faintly, "What pigeon soup? What doesn't our Yongning Pavilion have? We don't even know if they are using this soup to poison our young lady. The young lady can even slander her father, so what else can't she do?"
Qiao Yihuan knew that the master and servant were mean, and even though she was mentally prepared, she still found it extremely harsh to hear.
She scooped a bowl and drank it all. "Don't worry, sister, it's not poisonous. I just have good intentions, and I don't have any other intentions. I was confused before, and I just wanted to get along well with my sister in the future."
After Qiao Yihuan finished speaking, he said, "Sister, please have your meal first. I will go back and not disturb you anymore."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Qiao Wanyan asked, "Has she been in contact with anyone recently? Where has she been?"
A maidservant who was well-informed replied, "I heard that the eldest lady has been going to the national temple recently. She said that she would pray for the master and mistress of the family and for you. She leaves early and returns at sunset. This has been going on for several days in a row."
A maidservant nearby also said, "I heard that the young lady went to the National Temple to be a benefactor and help the temple with what she can. I heard that the abbot of the National Temple said that the young lady has wisdom and gave her a talisman and a rosary!"
Zi Yuan frowned, "The abbot of the National Temple, Jingxin, is a highly respected monk. I heard that he was raised by the previous abbot of the National Temple. He is only 21 years old now. He became the abbot at such a young age. He goes to the palace every month to chant sutras and mantras for the Queen, so he is quite respected. No one looks down on him because of his age."
Maid: "Sister Ziyuan is right. Because Abbot Jingxin gave the young lady the amulet and rosary, people are now saying that the young lady is a person of wisdom, and there are fewer rumors."
Zi Yuan waved her hand, "All of you go down, take this bowl of pigeon soup down and throw it away, it's just an eyesore and unlucky here."
Upon hearing this, the maids immediately nodded in agreement and left with the pigeon soup.
