"Girl, are you awake?"
Hearing the sound of tea sets clinking in the house, a woman immediately came in with a lamp.
The woman was shocked to see Li Qingluo standing by the table in the dark.
But when she realized that it was the noble who woke up, she quickly walked over happily and helped Li Qingluo sit down.
"Miss, you are finally awake! Don't worry, I will get you some hot water."
Li Qingluo called out to the woman, "Wait."
"Excuse me, what is this place?"
The woman smiled and said, "This is Yangzhou City. The young lady fainted and lost consciousness a few days ago. Your people brought her to knock on my door."
"Those gentlemen were very generous and gave my family twenty taels of silver."
"I would like to borrow this courtyard of my house for a few days."
"My husband and the children will go to stay at my uncle's house, and I will stay to take care of the girl."
"These past few days, I have been feeding the girl water and medicine, changing her clothes and cleaning her."
Li Qingluo understood his situation and asked the woman to go out and pour water.
After she had taken two sips, a familiar voice came from outside the window: "Girl, are you finally awake?"
Li Qingluo: "Don't worry, I'll be right out."
Li Qingluo put on her outer shirt and put her hair up high with red silk.
When she went out again, the whole yard was filled with her killing words.
Everyone looked at her eagerly, with excitement that was rare in their daily lives.
It seems that they were very worried about her being in a coma for the past few days.
Li Qingluo counted them and found that not one was missing.
I felt relieved.
"Besides reporting your safety to the General's Mansion, have you revealed any information about me?"
Li Qingluo opened his mouth and asked.
Sha Yi: "Don't worry, young lady. Mr. Nangong Di and Dr. Luo Shen have also appeared in Yangzhou City these two days, but our subordinates have not revealed their whereabouts."
"Until the young lady speaks, the subordinates dare not act rashly."
Even if Li Qingluo slept for several days and nights without waking up, they would just continue to wait in agony.
Because before the girl fell asleep, she specifically told them: "Don't panic, I'm just taking a nap."
"This sleep may have been a bit long, but there's no doctor in the world who can cure this ailment of mine, so there's no need to call for a doctor to examine me."
"Unless it's a witch named Jinhua who comes."
"Don't bring anyone else to me."
"Also, if Jinhuan hadn't come, you're not allowed to bury me as long as I'm still breathing!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she closed her eyes.
It seemed like he couldn't bear it any longer and he lost consciousness as soon as he closed his eyes.
This shocked all the killers.
I called out several times before I was sure that the girl was indeed asleep...
These past few days, Li Qingluo had no idea how they got here.
They took turns sleeping and guarding the yard.
There was a look of worry on everyone's brows.
Although the girl said that she might sleep for a long time.
But isn't this too long?
The killers even asked the woman to check on Li Qingluo's breathing every day.
You should check at every hour, morning, noon and night.
Knowing that she was still alive eased their anxiety a little.
But he was afraid that she would starve to death, so he went to get some deadly herbs and boiled them.
If Li Qingluo doesn't wake up, I'm afraid everyone will have gray hair due to worry.
Li Qingluo couldn't help but smile when he saw that they all had black eyes.
"Thank you for worrying about me."
"But I'm full of energy now. Let's hurry up and get the job done. It won't be too late for you to rest later."
The assassins quickly bowed their heads and said, "We will listen to your orders, young lady."
Just then, the woman came over with a tray.
On the plate was a bowl of thick vegetable porridge, a steamed bun and a pile of side dishes.
"Miss, I see you haven't had a proper meal in several days. Why don't you eat something first?"
"These gentlemen have all given enough money, so I am afraid that the young lady might wake up at any time, so I always keep fresh food hot in the kitchen."
The killers also looked at Li Qingluo eagerly, their unexpressible concern reflected in their eyes.
Li Qingluo was indeed hungry.
As expected, he reached out and took the warm meal.
"Then thank you, sister-in-law."
After eating a bowl of rice, I felt warm all over.
Li Qingluo asked about the time and without further delay, he called over Sha Yi and asked, "Where's Pei Qinghong?"
"But he got away?"
Kill One: "Don't worry, young lady. I'll lock him up in the cellar in this yard."
The cellar is where the family usually stores sweet potatoes, vegetables, and fruits.
When they rented this yard, they discovered this cellar and transferred Pei Qinghong from outside the city to lock him up here.
As soon as the cellar was opened, Pei Qinghong looked up.
When he saw Li Qingluo holding the lamp and staring at him, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"You're finally awake."
Li Qingluo: "For the sake of our fellow disciples, they won't starve you to death. What are you afraid of?"
Pei Qinghong: "I'm afraid that if you die, our Pei family will never get the antidote again."
Li Qingluo snorted coldly.
"Don't worry, even if I'm not in Jinling, the medicine will definitely be delivered to the nanny in my courtyard."
"Isn't Pei Jingzhe more anxious than you?"
That day, Nanny Zheng followed Li Qingluo to meet Jinhuan.
So, I also know what the medicine is.
What's more, my grandmother would not just stand by and watch the Pei family being saved.
Li Qingluo had Pei Qinghong dragged up.
