Chapter 70: My Husband Has Other Intentions
Shen Tingyu heard the conversation between the two of them clearly, answered the doubts in his heart, and retracted his head.
No wonder she shook the tyrant and talked to him in his ear, but he seemed not to hear her. She thought he was in a coma.
It turns out he was drugged!
What does this man want to do, who does he want to harm, and there is also the bag of what looks like powder.
Worried that the tyrant would make mistakes, Shen Tingyu had a hunch that they wanted to harm Madam Luo!
Aren’t they a couple? How could it be!
No matter what, she had to hurry and remind Mrs. Luo.
Shen Tingyu sneaked into the clinic and found the four treasures of the study used to write prescriptions. She grabbed a brush and wrote on the paper the small words "Be careful with what you eat, your husband has ulterior motives and wants to harm you".
Then he folded the note and put it into the carriage, and then he heard the sound of approaching footsteps, and Shen Tingyu quickly hid.
"Madam, we have been staying in the clinic for a long time. If we don't leave now, we will miss our father's birthday."
It was a man's voice, Shen Tingyu tilted his ear to listen.
Madam Luo: "Baizhu, take his medicine with you, and let's go."
"Yes, ma'am."
Mrs. Luo and her daughter got into the carriage together and immediately saw the folded note on the cushion.
"Where did the note come from? Baizhu, has anyone ever come into our carriage?" Madam Luo asked. Baizhu thought for a moment and shook her head: "I have never seen anyone come in."
"Mom, just open it and you'll know." Yun'er asked curiously.
As Shen Tingyu was expecting, Mrs. Luo opened the note. After reading it, her pupils shrank and her narrow eyes narrowed.
Since Madam Luo directly unfolded the note, Yun'er also saw it and covered her mouth in disbelief: "Mother, Father treats you so well and there are no concubines in the family. This must be fake."
Mrs. Luo calmed down, read the letter again, sneered, and handed the note to Bai Zhu with her fingers, "Burn it, it's just a bunch of divisive words. I can see through the person next to me."
Even so, the seeds of doubt have already been quietly planted.
The note was thrown into the tea stove and burned to ashes. Shen Tingyu was stunned. Could it be that she was really judging others by her own mean-spiritedness?
She quietly slipped back into the tyrant's carriage and touched his forehead with her hand. The temperature had indeed dropped. She poked his handsome cheek with her hand and said, "So it's a knockout drug... We'll leave when you wake up."
"When will you wake up...? Say something!"
"Hehe, if you don't speak, I'll pinch your face..."
…
The wheels of the carriage continued to move forward and stopped in front of an inn before dusk.
The man dismounted and said, "Madam, there is only one inn nearby. Let's rest here tonight."
Shen Tingyu looked around the simple and somewhat quaint inn, secretly staring at the medicine the maid was boiling for the tyrant. Before Lao Li gave him the medicine, he made some noise and replaced his knockout drug, giving Lao Li no chance to succeed.
"Madam, try this dish. It's a rare home-cooked taste."
Mrs. Luo was sitting at the square table. Thinking of the words on the note, she felt a little uncomfortable.
She noticed that there were only two people in the inn, a one-eyed elderly woman and a muscular man with some intellectual problems.
There were no other guests in the inn.
Suddenly, I lost my appetite and put down my chopsticks. "I'm not hungry, so I won't eat. I'll go back to my room first."
The moon was high in the sky, and in this secluded inn, orange-red lanterns lit up at the door, adding a touch of life to the desolate place.
The man opened his eyes in the night, glanced at Mrs. Luo who was sleeping peacefully inside, then he got up, put on his coat, and quietly walked out.
Old Li had already been waiting for him in the yard, holding a torch. "Master, everything is ready. All we need is your order."
Thinking about what the man and Lao Li said, Shen Tingyu tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, so she simply sat up and wanted to go see what was going on with Madam Luo.
I hope nothing unexpected happens to her. I hope she is just overthinking it.
The light of the torch was particularly bright in the dark night. Shen Tingyu saw at a glance that the man raised the torch in his hand and threw it into the oiled firewood, setting the inn on fire.
Shen Tingyu took a breath of cold air. Damn it, this man actually wanted to burn them to death, burn everyone to death.
How cruel! Among them were his wife and daughter.
Is he crazy?!
The man was not targeting the tyrant, so the burning direction was far away from the tyrant, but if it really burned, the tyrant would be close to death.
She couldn't move him at all.
There was no time to think about it. Even if they had been drugged, it was impossible for everyone in the inn to fall asleep.
She made the black horse roar, and the roar rang out instantly. The black horse's intelligence had increased, but its fear of fire was instinctive, and every roar was full of genuine fear.
The sound also alarmed the man, and he cursed: "Damn it! Old Li, why don't you make it shut up quickly?"
Shen Tingyu slipped into Madam Luo's room, looked at her peaceful sleeping face, and thought to herself that something was wrong.
Despite her reminder, Mrs. Luo still fell ill, but fortunately, the powder should be just something that makes people sleepy.
Fortunately, she came prepared. She took out a gong and started beating it all over the inn. The deafening sound of the gong echoed throughout the inn.
The moment the gong sounded, the man's face turned black as ink and he cursed. His plan was flawless. Who saw through him?
Baizhu woke up, and everyone in the inn woke up from their sleep: "What happened?" "It's so noisy!" "Is there an accident?" "Oh no, there's a fire!"
The one-eyed old woman's face changed drastically. She ordered her stupid son to fetch water from the well to put out the fire. The maids also followed closely to fetch water. Fortunately, the fire was not big and was quickly extinguished.
Yun'er scanned the crowd but couldn't find her mother. Thinking of the burnt note, her heart skipped a beat.
Could it really be my father...!
Oh no! Yun'er's steps were a little unsteady. She rushed into Madam Luo's room crying, "Mother! Mother!..."
The task is done and I will leave, hiding my body and name. There will be something exciting to watch tonight. Chen Tingyu is hiding in the tyrant's room, watching the show with laughter.
There was a flood tonight, and no one noticed the tyrant's side room. Shen Tingyu sat by the window with his feet hanging naturally, swaying while watching the show.
But she always felt that something was missing.
"What are you laughing at? Where is this place?"
A pair of pale hands were placed by the window, and a hoarse and low voice sounded above her head. Shen Tingyu's eyes lit up, "Your Majesty, you are awake."
"You don't know, a lot of things happened after you fell into a coma, and there will be something interesting to watch tonight."
Shen Tingyu finally realized that she was missing something, that is, the various snacks necessary for watching a play.
Hiss..., Shen Tingyu licked her lips, she missed her snacks.
"Let's go! Let's take a look. He must have set the fire." Angry voices came towards their room, and the footsteps were noisy. The two people looking at each other in the moonlight were both stunned.
