Chapter 180 Eat it
Chapter 180 Eat it
"Are you ready? I don't believe he can escape this time." The man standing behind the rockery looked at the man in white in the crowd with vicious eyes, as if he wanted to eat him alive.
On the other side, a group of women were arranging flowers and drinking tea, laughing and talking. Su Xiluo sat in the pavilion and looked at those women, and couldn't help rolling her eyes. These women only know how to be jealous all day long, how boring! However, when she saw Lin Yuqing not far away, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes.
Not long after, the maid beside her came to her side and whispered a few words in her ear. She nodded slightly, then turned to look at Lin Yuqing who was concentrating on learning flower arrangement. The smile on her lips became more intense, and her eyes were full of calculations.
Then, she waved to the maid, signaling her to reply. Soon, a maid came over with a teacup, but when she passed by Lin Yuqing, she suddenly stumbled, and the tea in her hand instantly spilled, just splashing on the corner of Lin Yuqing's skirt.
"Ah..." Lin Yuqing exclaimed, and when she looked down, she found that a large corner of her skirt had been soaked. Helplessly, she could only sigh lightly and got up to change her clothes.
On the other side, the same scene happened to Jiang Qiao. His white robe was soaked, and the water stains were more obvious than those on Lin Yuqing. He immediately stood up and wanted to find a reason to leave this embarrassing place, but another young master next to him stopped him and reminded him not to spoil the Third Prince's interest. After all, the Third Prince personally invited them to participate in this poetry meeting. If they left at this time, they might offend this noble prince.
Jiang Qiao sighed helplessly and could only follow the arrangement to go to the wing room to change clothes. Fortunately, this place was a gathering place for scholars and the host had long anticipated that this might happen, so they prepared some spare clothes for the guests to use.
Jiang Qiao followed the servant to the wing room. After entering the room, the servant suddenly closed the door. Jiang Qiao was confused by this action, but he still tried to open the door, but found that it was locked. At this moment, a murmur came from behind the curtain. Jiang Qiao turned around alertly and walked towards the direction of the sound. As he walked, he carefully observed the surroundings and found that this wing room had two windows in the front and back.
Jiang Qiao walked carefully to the bedside and observed closely, only to see a woman lying on the bed with her eyes closed. He took a closer look and recognized that this person was Lin Yuqing, the daughter of the Minister of Personnel. At this time, her face was flushed and her eyes were blurred, obviously she had been drugged. Jiang Qiao was startled and realized that it was not appropriate to stay here for a long time, so he decided to leave quickly.
"Hmm, hmm..." The faint moaning sound reached Jiang Qiao's ears, making him tremble all over. He shook his head hard, trying to get rid of this itchy sound from his mind. At the same time, he seemed to smell a faint fragrance, which made his heart beat faster. Jiang Qiao did not dare to hesitate, and hurriedly held his breath, walked quickly to the back window, reached out to push it, but found that the window did not move at all. He quickly changed to another window and tried, but still could not push it open. In desperation, he had to turn around and walk to the front window, but he encountered obstacles as well.
Jiang Qiao was extremely anxious, with beads of sweat oozing from his forehead. He secretly complained, not knowing what to do. On the one hand, he was anxiously thinking about how to deal with it; on the other hand, he tried his best to suppress the impulse that surged in his heart. He knew very well that if he could not find a solution quickly, the consequences would be unpredictable.
He was not a fool. He had fully understood that someone was trying to frame him. Moreover, the situation was very critical and he had to leave the place quickly. Just when he felt helpless, the window behind him was suddenly pushed open.
"Come out!" The man looked around anxiously and urged Jiang Qiao eagerly. Jiang Qiao was not familiar with this man, but he did not have time to think about it. He jumped out of the room without hesitation. The man quickly handed him a black pill.
“Eat it.”
Jiang Qiao carefully observed the pill, then looked up at the man, trying to find some clues from his expression. However, he did not find any clues. In the end, he chose to believe the man in front of him, took the pill and put it in his mouth. Not long after, his originally drowsy mind gradually became clear, and his body also recovered a lot of strength.
"Thank you, sir. May I ask your name?" Jiang Qiao clasped his hands together in a salute, his eyes full of gratitude. He knew that if it weren't for the help of this young man, he would have been in trouble.
"My name is Cao Yuwen. Mr. Jiang, you don't have to thank me. I just overheard what they said and came here to help." Cao Yuwen said with a smile, his tone revealing confidence and calmness.
Jiang Qiao secretly admired Cao Yuwen in his heart. He was not only a martial arts expert, but also kind-hearted. He was really a rare person. He was about to say something, but was interrupted by Cao Yuwen: "Leave here quickly, it's not convenient to stay here for long." After saying that, Cao Yuwen turned around and left, his steps light and firm.
Jiang Qiao hurriedly followed behind, and the two soon disappeared. Along the way, Jiang Qiao's mind was full of thoughts. He didn't know where this Cao Yuwen came from, but he believed that the other party had no ill intentions.
