Chapter 1281: Smoke and Fire Rise

took Xiaoli out of the mansion. Dugu City's carriage was already waiting. Seeing her arrive, Dugu City smiled and stepped forward, "My beloved, you are finally here. This king has been waiting for you...Luo Li let out a cold snort, arrogantly parting ways. It seemed as if Li Wu Yan had dragged him here. After leaving, he told Li Wu Yan about the situation, then pulled him over to take a look. After all, this matter was serious, and he couldn't just stand idly by.

"It was you who dragged me here."

Li Wuyan looked at Luoli, his expression slightly cold. "Don't push this onto me."

After finishing his words, he walked into the house, leaving Luo Li standing there with a displeased expression. She had to cooperate with him, or she'd be dead.

"Come on in and lend a hand. After all, you're Wan'er's master, a teacher who sets an example. You should at least put on a show."

Du Gucheng pulled Luo Li inside, but Luo Li pushed him away disdainfully, "Don't get close to me, don't think I don't know what you're thinking."

獨孤城 chuckled, this Luoli when did become so childish.

Feng Ling Xi saw Li Wu Yan come to help, and was delighted. She stepped forward, but stopped when she met his cold gaze.

If there is an antidote for poison, why not give it a try

Li Wuyan looked at Feng Lingxi, "First, count how many people are poisoned and gather them together. Let's see their condition and research the first batch of antidote."

"Xiao Li, you arrange this matter."

Feng Lingxi instructed, “The village head just had an incident, and it’s feared that the villagers won’t be easy to appease on this side. Now we can only rely on Sān cái.”

Sancai heard Feng Lingxi calling him, and rushed forward in a panic.

"I... I'm afraid they won't recognize me as the village head."

After all, as an orphan and so young, it's normal for him not to be recognized.

"Go find the village head's wife and ask her to help you."

"Ye Xi, you go with him."

Ye Xi responded, taking Sān Cái with her. Feng Ling Xi and Li Wu Yan began the experiment while Dugu Cheng and Luo Li stood guard outside, watching the situation in the village.

"Can heartwater really be sent back to the Ghost Saint Kingdom She made this poison, she should know what the antidote is."

“There’s no antidote for this poison, believe it or not.” Lu Nian’s voice was cold as she watched Feng Lingxi and Li Wuyan working in the lab. She spoke but they didn't listen, which really annoyed her. If something happened to her precious younger sister, how could she explain it to their parents

"Even if she had the antidote, she wouldn't give it to you. Don't you see how ruthless she is Sending her away and preventing her from causing trouble is all I can do." Luoli frowned. "But there is someone who could send her on a trip."

"Who"

Lu Nian was more nervous than Dugu City, all he wanted was to prevent Feng Ling Xi from taking risks. Even if she refused, he would drag her out.

"Mo Bing."

Du Gucheng glanced at Luoli, then suddenly smiled.

"Luoli, what's your relationship with Mo Bing exactly Who is her mother in the Yao clan She seems very loyal to you. To help you, she changes her identity constantly and has done so much for you."

It doesn't matter who she is, what matters is that she's willing to make this trip. She's much more reliable than anyone else.

"She and Xi'er are sworn enemies, do you think she would go if you asked her"

Du Gu Cheng didn't trust Feng Yu Xi. He couldn't fathom the depth of her hatred towards Xi Er. Right now, he was unaware of everything that had transpired, all he knew was that Feng Yu Xi would seize any opportunity to make Xi Er's life miserable.

"I won't let her know it was for Princess Chen, and don't even think about Mo Bing's life now. When the time is right, I will handle her myself."

Luo Li looked at Lu Nian beside her, "It seems you care about the Crown Princess of Chen quite a bit. Could it be that you're one of her many suitors"

"Of course I like her, and I like her a lot, a lot."

Lu Nian didn't care about Luoli's identity at all, and his words were full of hostility towards her. He had heard that the people around this person had harmed Xier, so he wasn't a good person either.

Luoli looked at Lu Nian's protective expression and was full of doubts, "This young master, I don't seem to have any feud with you" How come it seemed like she owed him money

"Well."

It's okay to ask him, shouldn't he ask himself

Luo Li looked at Dugu City, her eyes pleading. Dugu City leaned against the door, silent. He couldn't offend either of them, so he pretended not to see anything.

Half an hour later, Ye Xi returned to report that Sān Cái had become the new village head with the help of the village head's wife. However, he first asked the villagers to help bury the village head's body and then told them about Feng Lingxi's research on the antidote for the mad villagers, asking for their help.

At first, the villagers didn't quite believe Sāicái. With the village head's wife as a witness, and Yèxī revealing his identity, Sāicái was finally able to persuade the villagers.

Fewer than twenty people have eaten dog meat. Of the dozen or so who went mad, they tore at each other after eating the dog meat. Five others ate very little and today was their first day. They haven't experienced any discomfort yet. However, they cooperated with Sān Cái in going to Fēng Líng Xī’s place to help them develop an antidote.

The longest time was Liu Da's pair of brothers. Liu Da heard that the King and Queen of Linxi County were here researching an antidote, so he rushed over to see if his two sons were still salvageable.

Outside the village, villagers brought out everything from the village to cook and entertain them.

At the village entrance, Ye Xi's gathered soldiers had surrounded the village to prevent anyone else from entering and disrupting things.

One afternoon, Feng Lingxi and Li Wuyan were researching inside the house. No one went in to disturb them, only Xiao Li was responsible for escorting, coming in and out, asking after, but there was no gain.

"You stay here, you should also go back and see inside the mansion."

Luo Li looked at Dugu City, "It's not suitable to stay here."

"With A'er having Tian and Xiao Mi taking care of her, this king has nothing to worry about. If you are still uneasy, you can go to the mansion to have a look."

Luo Li glanced at Lu Nian. He had been on edge all afternoon, like he couldn't stand to look at anyone or anything.

"Just relax, what's there to worry about Who is this person"

"A friend I met in the capital."

"Lu Nian"

Luoli asked, Lu Nian turned his head back, gave Luoli a glance, the irritability on his handsome face was all written on his face, how could he stay in there for so long without any news, wouldn't something happen

Dugu City nodded. Anyway, sooner or later Luoli would know, there was no need to hide it here.

"I remember when you were impeached in the capital, they said you were close to the owner of Yipinxiang. Couldn't it have been him"

Dugu City chuckled self-deprecatingly, “I don’t have a close relationship with him. He favors Wan'er and Xi'er, he isn't so friendly towards me.”

Lu Nian heard Dugu City's words and frowned, but he didn't explain.

Anyway, his brother-in-law, whatever he says is right, whatever he says to Luo Li is fine.

"It seems that Prince Chen has become aware of the crisis."

It's not about having a sense of crisis for anyone, but about the facts.

Du Gu Cheng was filled with helplessness, "This King also hopes that Xier won't go around attracting flowers and grasses. However, Lu Nian and they are different. They admire Xier and treat her as their own sister. His family doesn't have a daughter, his parents love daughters very much, and they are very fond of Xier and Wan'er."that were about to leave his lips, and after a long silence, he said, "Take good care of your health, and don't think too much about other things."Stepping out of the room, Feng Aotian looked at Zhao...
