"What's wrong?"
Noticing that the puppy was looking at him with a complicated look, Qu Li turned his head to look over.
"Sister, there's a faint smell of Chinese medicine on your hands. Do you know any medical skills?"
"Yes, what's wrong, are you sick?"
Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes observation, auscultation, questioning and palpation. When she first saw the puppy, he was wearing a tiger mask on his face. All she could see were his exposed eyes and lips.
There were lanterns and fireworks everywhere, but she didn't pay much attention to anything.
At this moment, under the bright moonlight, she suddenly discovered that the little puppy's lips seemed to be redder than those of other children of the same age.
Qu Li's pupils narrowed, he pulled his hand over and carefully took his pulse.
Her pulse-taking movements were very cool, and Tianqing was impressed by her again.
Ah Qi pursed his lips and looked at her without blinking.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the sound of fireworks exploding in the sky came one after another, but only their world was unusually quiet.
"There's nothing wrong with your pulse."
Hearing this, Ah Qi's eyes dimmed.
He thought she was a very skilled doctor.
"but--"
These two words made him raise his head suddenly, and his eyes reflected the moonlight, extremely bright.
"However, your pulse is faster than the average person, and your blood flow is abnormally fast. This is the first time I've encountered this symptom, so I need to investigate further."
She did feel that something was wrong with Ah Qi, and the best thing to do was to do a blood test.
But now Tianqing is still here, and she is not sure whether the high priest has arranged people around.
The safest way is for her to make another appointment with Ah Qi and give him a detailed examination.
"Then sister, do you know that this is poisoning or something?"
"It doesn't look like poisoning."
Ah Qi pursed his lips and said "Oh", and the light in his eyes quickly disappeared.
The bad guy gave him a pill every month, and if he didn't take it, his blood vessels would burst all over his body.
The fifteenth day of every month is the most painful time for him.
He once stubbornly refused to eat, but the result was that he was in so much pain that he almost died.
He hated himself so much that he was like a fish on a chopping board!
"Would you like some candy?" Qu Li grabbed a few candies and handed them to him.
Ah Qi shook his head and said, "No."
"If you don't eat it, it will be your loss. This candy is an elixir!" She still leaned close to Ah Qi's ear and spoke softly.
Ah Qi was skeptical, his eyes wide open.
Qu Li tilted his head and smiled, "Do you want to eat or not?"
"My sister just said that person would die of poisoning, but there has been no news since then."
"You can't find the guards, right? How do you know what happened to that person now?"
Ah Qi realized that he had said something wrong, bit his lip in embarrassment, stared at his toes, and wished that a huge crack would appear on the ground.
"Actually, I went over to her because my sister looks a lot like Changsun Lingyue." He explained in a muffled voice.
The little puppy was worried that she would not like him for lying to her.
"I guessed it." She peeled a candy and put it in his mouth. "The poison hasn't taken effect yet because it's not time yet! Just wait patiently."
The sugar tastes different from ordinary sugar, but has a fruity aroma and a hint of Chinese medicine.
"Is it delicious?" Qu Li curved her eyes and smiled gently.
"It's delicious." Ah Qi nodded vigorously.
Qu Li also gave Tianqing a piece, and Tianqing peeled it off carefully and held it in his mouth.
"tasty!"
"Let's go and see what fun things are ahead!" She smiled gently and brightly.
The three were about to go to the ring-tossing stall not far away when they heard screams suddenly coming from the crowd.
"Someone's dead!"
The scream was like a drop of water splashing into a frying pan, and the whole street was instantly in chaos.
Ah Qi realized that the one who died was most likely the pervert from before, so he held her hand tighter, "Sister, let's get out of here quickly."
"It's okay! Even if the government comes, they can't find anything on me!"
Tianqing also had a serious expression on his face.
Even though it was the pervert who molested them first, and given the High Priest's different attitude towards Miss Qu, he would definitely not let Miss Qu be imprisoned, but this is still a place of right and wrong, and they should leave as soon as possible.
"Really, don't worry."
Seeing the worry in the eyes of the two people, one big and one small, Qu Li acted as if nothing had happened.
"A true master of poison would never allow himself to be traced back to others. This is a good opportunity for me to see the capabilities of your Xiling government."
After that, she took their hands without saying anything and walked towards the scene of the incident.
Ah Qi was worried that the government officials would come and ask him to take off his mask, so he took advantage of the crowd to break free from Qu Li's hand.
When Qu Li noticed it, he had already disappeared.
She looked around, but where was the little puppy?
"Miss Qu, has Master Qi gotten lost again?" Tianqing was quite worried.
The young master looked very noble and must not be from an ordinary family.
If something goes wrong, they won't be able to explain it clearly.
"Isn't there still a high priest? He took great pains to get me to Xiling, he can't just stand by and watch me get bullied, right?" She said disapprovingly.
Tianqing didn't know what to say.
Qu Li continued forward and suddenly turned around, just in time to meet the gaze of Ah Qi who was hiding in the private room on the second floor of the teahouse.
Ah Qi frowned, his eyes full of apology.
Qu Li mouthed to him - I don't blame you!
His heart felt sore and swollen, and his fists clenched tightly.
"Your Majesty, we should go back! Otherwise, the high priest will be furious!"
Ah Qi snorted, his eyes filled with disgust. "He's basically the only one around me who has his people. It would be great if he gets angry. He can help me get rid of those annoying bastards!"
The guard was quite helpless, "Your Majesty, the next one sent is the High Priest's men! You are still young and inexperienced, so you need to be patient!"
"Be patient?" Ah Qi clenched his fists. "I think if I continue to be patient, I'll go crazy!"
"That Miss Qu seems to be someone the High Priest cares about very much. Why not..."
Ah Qi looked at Qu Li from afar, and a dark light suddenly appeared in his eyes that looked like glass.
These days of being suppressed by the high priest will definitely not last long!
"come over!"
The guard came forward and he whispered in his ear.
No longer noticing the puppy's gaze on him, Qu Li turned his head to look.
People did leave.
It was just a short time together, but Qu Li felt very lost.
"Ms. Qu, are you okay?" Tianqing asked with concern.
"I'm fine!"
There were guards on site to maintain order at the Fireworks Festival, so the government officials arrived very quickly.
The coroner also came with them.
The people of Xiling do like to watch the excitement, but they also understand the importance of priorities.
At this time, they dispersed and watched the coroner perform the autopsy quietly.
"It's poisoning!"
A single stone caused a thousand ripples, and everyone who was immersed in joy changed their expressions when they heard these words.
