Before she left, she only left two shops for Zhong Li, plus 500 taels of silver notes. The shops were basically not profitable. In the past two years, Zhong Li spent more than 200 taels in order to treat Cheng'er, and she only had two Hundreds of two.

Zhong Li took out the two hundred tael silver notes, she winked at Xia He and asked her to go to the door to stare.

This is to prevent someone from eavesdropping.

After Xia He went out, she handed the silver note to Qiuyue, "I need you to go out and buy something for me."

Qiuyue was startled, and her slightly raised eyes were full of surprise, "What is so expensive? Can't steal money?"

She naturally knew that this was the only silver the master had.

Zhong Li smiled bitterly. Naturally, she also felt that it was expensive, but she was really helpless. There were only two servants by her side, and neither of them knew martial arts. She had to have some self-defense.

In the last life, Gu Lin attacked her again, and it was the cartilage she bought that had an effect, and she escaped.

She has learned how to make Ecstasy, but she needs a lot of herbs, and now there is no time. She is going out tonight, so she must buy some ready-made ones for self-defense.

"If my expectations are not bad, the cartilage powder should cost more than a hundred taels. After you buy it, buy some herbs."

Cartilage powder is a kind of medicine that can make people unable to move. Although it is expensive, it is very useful. Just sprinkle it on people's body, it can make people's whole body limp. , you have to drink it to be useful.

Qiuyue took it to heart, "Don't worry, master, the slaves will definitely handle it for you."

Zhong Li was naturally at ease with her, "You take Qingsong with you, be careful, and don't get caught."

Before knew it, it was night, the moon and stars outside the window were sparse, and the night wind picked up again at some point, and the window was pounding. Qiuyue and Qingsong ran all day, and didn't return until this moment. Only eight taels left.

Although Zhong Li felt distressed for the silver, after the cartilage was scattered, she finally had some confidence. She even wanted to break the contract. When she thought of Pei Xing, she couldn't help but be afraid. She couldn't imagine what would be waiting for her at night.

There was a voice in her heart, urging her to escape as soon as possible. Run away, run away, never come back...

But if she ran away, what would Cheng'er do? The Marquis of Zhenbei would never allow it, his own flesh and blood would be left out, and if he left with Cheng'er, he would be caught in less than a day.

Zhong Li finally calmed down.

The night gradually became darker, and the candles flickered lightly, like a girl's uneasy mood. After coaxing Cheng'er to sleep, Zhong Li went to take a bath. The hot water wrapped her skin. She couldn't help but sigh, and faintly felt the discomfort of her body again.

The poison in the body seems to be unable to be suppressed. Strange to say, she did not feel strange all day long, but at night, her body became strange again.

Zhong Li closed her eyes resignedly, tears rolled down her cheeks and fell into the water.

When Qiuyue came in to add water, Zhong Li shook her head, she got up and stood up, the flickering candles hit her, the girl Yuxue's delicate body was exquisite, every inch of her skin was white and tender, more dazzling than jade.

When Qiuyue wiped her body, she didn't dare to look at it, she only felt that the impact was too great, so big that she blushed and heartbeat.

Zhong Li usually rests every three quarters of the hour, but when it came to this point today, she ordered the maid to turn off the lights. The entire Zhenbeihou Mansion gradually quieted down, and all the courtyards turned off the lights.

The little servant who stayed in the dark waited until Hai Shi, before returning to Xiao Sheng to return to his life.

Time walked slowly, and at the third quarter of Hai Shi, when the entire Zhenbei Hou Mansion was dead and silent, Zhong Li took Qiuyue out. She only brought Qiuyue and Cartilage scattered on her body.

The entire Hou Mansion was shrouded in darkness, the lights were dark everywhere, and the surroundings were eerily silent. Zhong Li didn't let Qiuyue carry the lantern. The two of them bathed in the darkness and walked slowly towards Youfeng Hall.

The Youfeng Hall at night is no different from the daytime. There is no one guarding the gate. Only the entrance of the study has a guard who is doing his duty.

Pei Xing's residence was lit, and the candles flickered, and he could vaguely see his figure. He was tall, brave, and daunting.

She stood silently in place for a while, and the discomfort in her body eroded her consciousness like a tsunami. Her hesitation and helplessness seemed so vulnerable.

It seemed that a voice was telling her that compared to a healthy body, compared to seeking protection from Pei Xing, compared to taking care of Cheng'er growing up, innocence was really worthless.

The cold wind blew against her cheeks, blowing away her hesitation and panic.

"Wait here." Zhong Li explained in a low voice, raising her steps and walking towards the room step by step.

Her back was so straight, but her fingertips were trembling slightly.

She took a deep breath, walked into the room, and approached Pei Xing little by little. Pei Xing was sitting in front of the book desk, looking at something. one time.

Zhong Li didn't know how long she had been standing, and the discomfort in her body gradually intensified. She put her hands behind her back and pinched her wrists tightly before suppressing the urge to hug him.

Chapter 6 Irritability

Time passed by inch by inch, and after another quarter of an hour, Pei Xing finally dropped the case file in his hand. He glanced at Zhong Li and said lightly, "The antidote is on the outside table, one every night."

When Dr. Zhao came over yesterday, he asked her to take a detoxification pill, but the poison in her body was too overbearing. The detoxification pill can only temporarily suppress the toxicity, and then she needs to take two more pills, one per night, to completely detoxify .

Pei Xing asked her to come over at night, but she actually asked her to come to get the antidote.

Zhong Li persisted until now, and it was the end of her force. The arm behind her was pinched blue and purple. She stared straight at Pei Xing. Her chaotic consciousness made her unable to hear what he said at all, and she finally looked at him when she saw him. She, her heart trembled, stepped forward and hugged him.
