When she mentioned the poison, Wu Weian, who was lying flat on his back, suddenly turned over. No one knew how he turned over, but the next moment he was next to Ji Yunxi.
He stretched out his arms and embraced Ji Yunxi in his arms.
Ji Yunxi didn't struggle. She said coldly, "Let go."
The two have been married for half a year, and he probably has figured out Ji Yunxi's personality.
Not only did Wu Weian not let go, he even held the person tighter.
He rested his head against the top of her head, and his voice was low, sleepy, and a little pitiful: "I'm so sleepy."
Ji Yunxi was quiet for a moment and said nothing more.
In the darkness, she looked thoughtful.
She didn't seem to need to struggle or refuse.
She is not a chaste woman.
Ji Yunxi thinks that the three things that many modern Aquamans don’t do are quite good.
Don't take the initiative, don't refuse, don't take responsibility.
Her eyelashes moved slightly, her eyes flashed slightly, and then she closed her eyes.
After a while, when Ji Yunxi was half asleep and half awake, Wu Weian said softly, with a hint of forbearance in his words that even Ji Yunxi didn't notice: "I really want to get rid of the poison."
Ji Yunxi: "Yeah."
When she was about to fall asleep, her voice would be softer than usual.
Wu Wei'an gently traced the embroidery on the waistband of her nightgown and said in a low voice, "Do you want to know why?"
Ji Yunxi woke up instantly and held his hand: "I don't want to."
Wu Wei'an: "Oh."
The two were silent for a moment.
This time, no one could fall asleep.
Ji Yunxi suddenly asked, "Did you use my bath soap?"
It's actually bath soap.
It didn't exist in that era. Ji Yunxi was not used to using bath beans and the like, so she specially hired a professional perfume maker, told him her requirements, and he made it for her.
At first, Ji Yunxi even thought about starting a shower gel business, but later she gave up the idea.
Because it's not realistic.
This bath liquid was more complicated to make than modern bath liquids and was also more expensive. It was simply impossible to promote it among the people in the Dayu Dynasty like it is today.
Therefore, Ji Yunxi only used it for herself.
Wu Wei'an did not deny: "Yes."
He lowered his head slightly and sniffed her neck gently, and the sweet fruity scent filled his nose.
He said, "It smelled so good that I couldn't resist."

Over the past decade or so, the people didn't know much about the Fifth Prince.
Because the fifth prince was really unknown and did not have the good reputation of virtue and virtuousness like the crown prince, he was not valued by the emperor.
But some time ago, after the Heichun bandit incident, the fifth prince came into the public's attention.
Therefore, after the death of the fifth prince, the people talked about it for several days.
"Could it be that those Black Chun bandits came to the capital to seek revenge?"
"Oh my god, if that's the case, wouldn't it be very dangerous to go to the capital?"
"No, no, I heard it was a murder of passion."
"A murder of passion?"
"Yeah, didn't you notice? After the Fifth Prince died, the Xing family's cloth shop and inn were both closed! And it's said that Xing Shuyue is dead too!"
"Ah? The Fifth Prince and Xing Shuyue actually have this kind of relationship? I've never heard of these two having any connection before."
"Xing Shuyue's aunt is a consort in the palace. Xing Shuyue has attended many banquets hosted by young masters and ladies over the years. This must be how she met the Fifth Prince."
"This is absolutely true. I have someone in the palace who heard that the lady from the Xing family is also dead."
After all, since it involves the current emperor and the empress in the palace, the people dare not say too much, and they only say a few words in private and confidentially.
Within a few days, their attention was attracted by the new winter clothes in Ji's Cloth Shop.
And the fifth prince completely disappeared from the sight of the entire Shangjing City.
After all, the fifth prince was still a prince. After Xing Shuyue killed the fifth prince, the emperor ordered the execution of all nine members of the Xing family. Even the concubine Xing in the palace died tragically in the cold palace.
The positions of the Minister of Justice and the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court became vacant. The leaders of the prince's party wanted to push their people to the positions, but they failed in the end.
The emperor directly arranged his own people.
The matter of the fifth prince could not be traced back to Wu Weian, and the Wu and Ji families remained safe and sound.
The pool of water in Shangjing City seemed to have returned to its former tranquility.
Late that night, at Ji Mansion.
Jianhe carried her bag and sneaked out of the back door of Ji's house.
She looked around. It was already late and there was no one on the street.
Jianhe breathed a sigh of relief, closed the door, took a step back, and was about to turn around and leave when her back suddenly stiffened.
Because Jianhe felt that there was a knife against her back.
She turned her head palely and caught a glimpse of Wanxiang's cold face out of the corner of her eye.
Jianhe was brought to Ji Yunxi.
Ji Yunxi sat on the couch, placed one hand on the table, slightly frowned, and looked quietly at Jianhe below.
Jianhe knelt on the ground and looked around.
Behind them is Wanxiang, and the person writing at the table with his back to them should be the son-in-law.
Then she withdrew her gaze and looked at Ji Yunxi in front of her.
Ever since she learned of Miss Xing's death, Jian He has been in constant fear.
She was shaking like a sieve, and her face was pale.
Jian He dragged her legs and knelt in front of Ji Yunxi's feet, crying, "Third Miss, Third Miss, I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong. Third Miss, please have mercy on me and let me go. I really have no choice. If I don't do what Miss Xing said, no, if I don't do what Xing Shuyue said! She will kill me! Third Miss, there are many things I didn't tell Xing Shuyue. Really, I only told her a little about my brother-in-law..." She glanced at the back of the person in front of the table with some fear, "Whereabouts. I didn't tell anything else. My heart has always been with you, Third Miss!"
Ji Yunxi raised her head: "Oh? What are these many things?"
