Chapter 115 Hiring a Killer to Kill Someone, but No Money to Pay the Balance?
Shen Qing put his hand stiffly on Lu Yan's heart, and his whole body exuded a kind of numbness. However, Shen Qing was really worried about Lu Yan's body, "How do you feel now?"
Shen Qing knew that Lu Yan could not use his inner strength casually.
There was a smile in Lu Yan's eyes, which made his gentle expression even gentler. "Don't worry, it's okay. It's just that my heart hurts a little. I'll be fine after some rest."
Shen Qing was not at ease at all. She was afraid that Lu Yan would hide his injury from her, so she called Fu Yi over and checked Lu Yan's pulse.
Fuyi has been practicing medicine for eight years, and this is the first time he has seen such a complicated pulse condition. He immediately became interested, but the more he explored, the more serious the expression on his face became.
After a moment, Fu Yi looked at the client with a charming smile on his face and Shen Qing with a worried look on his face, "The toxins in Prince Lu's body have touched his heart. If he uses his internal power again, he may break through the suppression of the eldest lady." ”
Although Fuyi didn't say it explicitly, the two of them knew what would happen to Lu Yan after Yun Xiaoxiao's suppression method failed.
"Fuyi, if Lu Yan doesn't use his internal strength, how long can his body last?"
"One year, but because the poison has spread to the heart, Prince Lu is afraid that he will often have symptoms of heartache in the future."
Shen Qing frowned, "Is there any way to alleviate this?"
Fuyi shook his head, "Prince Lu's body is now in a state of exhaustion. Medicines have no effect on him and can only increase his burden."
After saying that, Fu Yi turned around and left, leaving space for the two of them.
Before coming to Shengjing, she only knew that Lu Yan was in poor health, but she didn't expect it to be this serious.
When she thought about Shen Qing's thoughts towards Lu Yan, Fuyi felt her heart become heavier.
In one year, can Yun Xiaoxiao find a way to detoxify the three deadly poisons?
Fuyi didn't dare to think deeply.
On the other side, seeing the frost-like condensation on Shen Qing's face, Lu Yan leaned gently on her shoulder, and his warm voice was like a gurgling stream in the valley, making Shen Qing's restless heart involuntarily calm. Coming down, "Jiaojiao, do you know what wish I just made in front of the Bodhisattva?"
Shen Qing grabbed Lu Yan's slender fingers and asked him, "What wish did you make?"
Lu Yan's soft voice was full of expectation, "I told the Bodhisattva that I want to marry Jiao Jiao."
Shen Qing paused for a moment, and just when she was about to respond, she heard Lu Yan speak before her. Most of the expectations in his voice were gone, and there was a little more annoyance and unwillingness, "But now, I regret it a little."
Hearing this, Shen Qing felt mixed emotions in her heart, but Lu Yan's voice in response was extremely firm: "But I don't regret it."
Shen Qing knew that Lu Yan was annoyed about his weakening body, and was also afraid that after knowing each other, Shen Qing would be left alone.
Hearing Shen Qing's response, Lu Yan's clenched fingertips trembled slightly, and his lips murmured for a while, but in the end he just said "ok".
…
The last bit of light on the horizon disappeared, and night slowly fell.
This place is quite far away from Shengjing City, and the people sent by Lize to deliver the message to the Yining Marquis Mansion have not returned yet.
Xie Ling still showed no signs of waking up, and Lu Yan also passed out due to lack of physical strength. Li Ze and Fu Yi were always paying attention to the surrounding signs and alert for danger.
Shen Qing sat in front of Lu Yan, looking at the dark sky around her, her face became darker and darker.
Before at the scene of the fight, Shen Qing had asked people to carefully check the identities of the men in black, but nothing unusual was found. They were ordinary, unfamiliar faces, with nothing on their bodies, only a handful of weapons that could be found anywhere. The long sword is undoubtedly a killer configuration.
And these killers are still coming for you.
Shen Qing knew without thinking that there would be no other person behind the scenes except the Mu family.
But when did the people in Yanglinghou Mansion get in touch with the killer organization?
Recently, Shen Qing has been keeping an eye on the activities in various courtyards in the mansion, but has not found anything unusual.
The news that she was leaving the city only came out last night. After that, only Mrs. Yanglinghou's mother Zhang had left the house.
Zhang's mother went to the Huichun Hall. When she came out, she carried two medicine bags in her hands. After returning home, she asked the girl to cook the medicine, and it didn't look like there was anything wrong.
But Shen Qing had an intuition that the problem lay with Zhang's mother.
If this is the case, then the most likely possibility is that there is something fishy about Huichuntang.
Shen Qing planned to ask Lingyi to check out the Rejuvenation Hall after returning.
As for Mrs. Yanglinghou...since she dared to commit such an act of paying for murder, Shen Qing would definitely make her pay the price she deserved.
…
At the same time, Yanglinghou Mansion.
The news that Shen Qing had left the city to offer incense and yet had not returned has spread throughout the Yanglinghou Mansion. People were quietly inquiring about the situation in every courtyard. Only Qifutang was quiet.
Mrs. Yangling Hou leaned on the soft couch with a face full of joy. Because she was in a good mood, she even felt much better when she drank the bitter medicine soup.
"Mother Zhang, hasn't Shen Qing come back yet?"
Zhang’s mother nodded, “Back to Madam, it’s not even yet, it’s almost the end of the Youshi period, and the city gates are closed. I’m afraid I won’t be able to come back tonight.”
Mrs. Yanglinghou's eyebrows were full of joy, "Not only tonight, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back in the future.
Speaking of which, I was a little nervous last night, fearing that Doctor Liang would take our three thousand taels of silver. Now it seems that I was judging others by my own standards. Tomorrow at noon, if Shen Qing hasn't come back yet, you should give the remaining three thousand taels of silver to Doctor Liang. "
She said tomorrow, but in fact, as the sky was getting darker outside, the wife of Yangling Marquis had already acquiesced that Shen Qing had died outside.
Yesterday evening, Mother Zhang left the house with three thousand taels of silver and met Doctor Liang at the closing time of Huichun Hall. She wanted Doctor Liang to introduce her to Xueying Tower, but Doctor Liang said that Xueying Tower would not easily see outsiders. If the wife of Yangling Marquis wanted to kill someone, he could convey it on her behalf.
Mother Zhang hesitated for a long time, but still followed Doctor Liang's advice.
However, after hearing that the person the wife of Yangling Marquis wanted to assassinate was Shen Qing, Doctor Liang Three thousand taels may not be enough, at least six thousand taels of silver are needed, but these three thousand taels can be regarded as a deposit, and the remaining three thousand taels of silver will be settled after the matter is completed.
Although Zhang Mama felt that six thousand taels was indeed a bit expensive, she still agreed when she thought of the instructions of the wife of Yangling Marquis when she left.
Shen Qing's dowry is priceless. If she really dies, those things will completely belong to the Yangling Marquis Mansion. At that time, the wife of Yangling Marquis will naturally not care about the mere three thousand taels of silver.
Hearing the instructions of the wife of Yangling Marquis, Zhang Mama nodded and agreed: "Madam, don't worry, I will remember it. ”
Speaking of silver, the wife of Yanglinghou suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly got up to look for her small box under the cabinet.
Opening the small box, the wife of Yanglinghou counted the few remaining silver notes in it, and her face suddenly showed difficulty.
In the past two months, Shen Qing has deducted a lot of silver from them, and there are many messy expenses, so that the wealth that the wife of Yanglinghou has saved for many years is now only 1,800 taels.
There is still 1,200 taels short of the final payment of 3,000 taels to be paid tomorrow, what should I do?
The person has been killed, and he can't be resurrected to pay off the debt, but the wife of Yanglinghou really has no money.
It is definitely not okay to delay the final payment. The wife of Yanglinghou doesn't dare to make enemies with such a murder organization.
After thinking for a while, the wife of Yanglinghou took the key to the warehouse and took Zhang's mother straight to the warehouse.
Since Shen Qing is dead, it's not too much for her to use Shen Qing's dowry to pay the final payment, right?
