Chapter 261 Not everyone wants to meddle in other people’s affairs!
What's going on?
Ran Qingxuan had a question mark on his face and glanced back and forth at Gu Yanchen and He Fanxiong.
He Fanxiong was completely limp, as if in his eyes he and his family had already become four people.
Ran Qingxuan just took out the poisonous insect because she didn't want them to act rashly. Unexpectedly, she ended up making things worse and made He Fanxiong believe that she was sent by Master Lan Yu to take his life.
Coupled with the appearance of Gu Yanchen, He Fanxiong has already determined that his family has been exposed long ago.
With his heart broken, He Fanxiong stopped struggling, pushed away the middle-aged man blocking his way, and spoke to Ran Qingxuan with a calm face.
"You can kill or chop them up as you wish, but please let Qingqing and Qingtuo go. Even if you put a curse on them, don't take their lives..."
The man standing next to him should be the secret guard protecting the He family. He became anxious when he heard this.
"Master, you can't do that!"
"It's okay, it's already a foregone conclusion..."
The master and servant were talking to themselves, and Ran Qingxuan was completely confused.
"What do you mean by finality? I don't understand what you are talking about. My husband and I never intended to take your lives. Coming here is just a coincidence. Why don't you believe it?"
When He Fanxiong heard Ran Qingxuan repeatedly mention that this was all a coincidence, he couldn't help but look at the two of them with suspicion.
Although Gu Yanchen didn't understand why He Fanxiong looked the same as Emperor Lan Yu, he could still realize from a few words that it was all a misunderstanding.
Ran Qingxuan felt that no matter whether he had any relationship with the Blue Rain Royal Family or not, it was not appropriate to confront them head-on at this time.
Walking up to Gu Yanchen and standing beside him, Ran Qingxuan said sincerely.
"Mr. He, the truth may not be what you think. In order to avoid your misunderstanding, I think it is necessary to explain it!"
She exchanged a glance with Gu Yanchen, who understood what she was about to say and nodded.
He Fanxiong looked alert; he wanted to hear what explanation the two would give.
"Old sir, we have not formally introduced ourselves to you since we came here."
"This is my husband, Gu Yanchen from the Northern Qi Gu family."
"And I am Gu Yanchen's wife, Ran Qingxuan."
He Fanxiong's eyes suddenly turned stern, and he was completely shocked.
In order to avoid being discovered by the Blue Rain Royal Family, he knew something about various major events that happened in Northern Qi. Naturally, he knew that the Gu family had been sentenced to confiscation of property and exile by Emperor Mingde.
He was naturally aware of the character of the men in the Gu family, and Ran Qingxuan's act of introducing himself made him let down his guard temporarily.
"Then... your rescue of Qingqing and your rescue of the Lu family father and son in Qianchong Mountain, was it really just a coincidence?"
Seeing that there was a chance, Ran Qingxuan forced a helpless smile on his face and stepped forward to explain.
"Qingqing was poisoned because Adong picked up a cat that had played with a snake, and Qingqing was accidentally scratched when she tried to hug it."
"The reason I helped him was because I happened to meet him. As a doctor, how could I watch someone who could have lived die in front of me?"
After saying that, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Gu Yanchen again.
"At the time, a family that was traveling with us was unhappy about being exiled together, so they took the opportunity to push my husband and me off the cliff. We were lucky to survive."
Ran Qingxuan tried his best to explain the matter clearly, otherwise this family would live in fear for the rest of their lives.
“We happened to rescue the Lu family father and son who were trapped by jackals when we were looking for an exit. The man living in the He family is the official. If you don’t believe me, you can go and ask him.
We came to the village because we were not familiar with the route. Uncle Lu said he would take us out and go to the village to be the witnesses for Qingqing's wedding, so we came. ”
How could she know that there was such a huge Buddha in the village? If she had known, she would never have gotten involved in this mess!
After Ran Qingxuan explained it clearly, he felt like his throat was about to smoke. He Fanxiong stood still, and the man next to him still had a vigilant look on his face.
"It's too risky to trust you!"
Rolling his eyes, Ran Qingxuan spread his hands and threw them away.
"That can't be helped. We've explained everything that needs to be explained. If you don't believe us, what else can we say?"
"I believe it!" Before the middle-aged man could open his mouth, He Fanxiong spoke first.
He slowly sat down beside the bed and looked at Ran Qingxuan.
"Girl, we are all in trouble, but I have to consider my children and grandchildren. I hope you can forgive my behavior just now..."
Ran Qingxuan was relieved to see that he had really persuaded the man to stop.
"It's good that you believe me. Otherwise, I will attack you again to save my life, and Qingqing and the others won't accept it when they wake up."
"You are just casual acquaintances, why do you care about what they think?"
He Fanxiong felt that Ran Qingxuan was too kind-hearted and still had some doubts in his heart.
"As a human being, I think there is nothing wrong with being kind. Besides, Qingqing is a good girl, and your family is kind. I just don't want things to get out of hand."
There was helplessness in He Fanxiong's eyes, and he couldn't help but shake his head with sarcasm.
"The Gu family has been kind all their lives, but the end result is that they are suspected by the emperor..."
"That's different. I remember the saying that good deeds will be rewarded. As for the things that Emperor Mingde did that damaged his virtue, it's up to God to take him away. It doesn't conflict with our kindness!"
"That's right. It's a twisted logic, but it's true. Otherwise you wouldn't have fallen off the cliff and remained intact."
He Fanxiong sat on the edge of the bed and returned to his normal state, as if the tension between the two sides just now did not exist.
After a long while, He Fanxiong finally spoke: "Our family lives in seclusion here just to stay away from disputes. No matter what the reason is, I hope you two can keep the secret for us after you leave."
Gu Yanchen had given some thought to his request.
"We are not nosy people. After all, we are in a helpless situation now. We don't have the time to care about other people's affairs."
He Fanxiong's attention was attracted by the old man on the bed. He nodded reluctantly and murmured, "Okay, okay..."
The two looked at each other, neither of them understood his true thoughts.
Before they could speak again, the people outside who were drugged woke up slowly and looked at each other with confused faces.
"Why am I sitting on the ground..."
"Why am I so cold..."
He Qingqing got up from her mother's arms, and when she saw her father sitting on the ground, she quickly went forward to support him.
"Dad, what happened to us?"
The two men who knew the inside story held kettles in their hands and each poured a bowl of water.
"Miss Ran said that there was a poisonous plant mixed in the firewood we burned, so she fainted when she smelled it."
This was the first time the villagers had encountered such a situation, but no one was suspicious. After all, they had heard of people being sent to the hospital after accidentally eating poisonous plants, so they didn't take it seriously.
"This water contains the antidote prescribed by Miss Ran. Everyone will be fine after drinking it."
The villager didn't understand what was going on, so he took the bowl and even thanked Ran Qingxuan in the house repeatedly.
Ran Qingxuan was in the house listening to the conversation outside, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the old man was very scheming.
