Chapter 286 Sir, it’s time to take medicine 4
If the original body's memory is correct, then the Jihuo Club has great ambitions!
No one would believe that there is no conspiracy if they can place their own people around the prince.
In the original plot, the Jin family was involved in a fight for the throne, and the third prince they supported was defeated.
The third prince committed suicide, and the Jin family was liquidated by the fourth prince who ascended the throne.
The seventh prince is the third prince's brother from the same mother.
The biological mother of the third and seventh princes was Concubine Shu. She was just the daughter of a minor official, but she was beautiful and was deeply loved by the old emperor. Even her two sons were favored by the emperor.
The third prince's wife came from a prominent family, but the seventh prince's wife came from an ordinary family.
In the original body's memory, the seventh prince liked to wield spears and sticks. The third prince loved his brother very much and specially persuaded the emperor to send the seventh prince to a certain sect as a disciple.
It seems that the Seventh Prince's wife is the daughter of an elder of that sect.
hiss~
Luo Yu Niang sat up straight, feeling that this world seemed a little abnormal.
Which prince would go to a martial arts sect to learn martial arts?
This isn't The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng, where people from the martial arts world can even set up a dance on top of the Forbidden City to dance on the emperor's nerves!
Wait, even colorless and odorless poison and flying skills have appeared. Who said it's impossible?!
Luo Yuniang slumped in the chair and rubbed her temples.
Luo Yu Niang also had two guesses about the poison.
First, the poison can indeed kill people, but it is nothing in the martial arts world, so Jihuohui gave it to him, which just happened to give him a handle on Jin Zhijie.
The second is that the poison is actually not that powerful. In the original plot, the reason why Qi Yun died might be that Jihuohui helped.
But no matter what, Jihuo is willing to make friends with Jin Zhijie, so he must have some plans for him.
Or are they casting a wide net?
Jin Zhijie is very knowledgeable. He is only 21 years old this year, but he has already become a scholar. He has always ranked first in the county examination, prefectural examination, and academy examination, commonly known as the "Little Three Yuan".
In the original plot, Jin Zhijie won six first places in a row, which impressed the old emperor deeply. He was directly admitted to the Hanlin Academy and later rose to prominence.
The Jihuo Society deliberately made friends with the promising Jin Zhijie, and placed their own people around the Seventh Prince. So, was the Third Prince's forced abdication in the original plot also the work of the Jihuo Society?
What do they want to do?
In the original plot, the original body was always hanging around in the backyard in the later period, busy with social activities as a lady.
Although Jin Zhijie is very obedient, he will not tell his original self everything, as his original self knows very little about the previous dynasty.
Luo Yu Niang thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so she simply stood up and stretched her hands and feet.
Forget it, if you can’t figure it out, just don’t think about it for now.
When the enemy comes, we will fight him with our soldiers; when the water comes, we will block it with earth. If you are careful, you will always survive.
The most urgent task is to confirm whether there are people from the Jihuo Society monitoring her home.
Also, Qi Yun’s personal safety.
Since the Jihuo Society already knew that the original body and Jin Zhijie wanted to kill Qi Yun, if Qi Yun had not been poisoned, would they have directly killed Qi Yun in order to get evidence against Jin Zhijie?
Luo Yuniang touched her chin, recalling Qi Yun's sharp intuition, and always felt that Jihuo would not succeed so easily.

"dinner time!"
With a shout, the people who came to the Xi family to help put down what they were doing, took the bowls and chopsticks they brought with them, and lined up to get their meals.
Qi Yun walked to the corner with the bowl in his hand, lowered his head and ate silently.
The foreman Lao Wang who brought them here sat down next to him. After hesitating for a while, he picked up the smallest piece of meat from his bowl and put it into Qi Yun's bowl.
Qi Yun looked up at him and whispered a thank you: "Thank you, Boss Wang."
Lao Wang waved his hand and started eating.
He would occasionally glance at the strong muscles on Qi Yun's arms, with envy in his eyes. But when he looked down at Qi Yun's right leg, he couldn't help but feel sorry for him.
When Qi Yun was still in Huayang County, he followed Lao Wang on several work trips. Later, when he moved to Qingsong County, he became a member of Lao Wang's helper team.
Qi Yun is strong and works efficiently. Although he is not talkative, he is honest and never cheats. Lao Wang really likes him and takes good care of him on weekdays.
Unfortunately, Qi Yun had a scar on his face and was lame, so he couldn't do the easy jobs that valued appearance, and could only do heavy and tiring work.
The Xi family is not a black-hearted family that would force people to work even at night. As soon as it gets dark, the Xi family's housekeeper calls for the end of work.
After dinner, everyone went to the room arranged by the Xi family to wash up and sleep.
Now that it is September, the nights are no longer as hot as before.
There were ten people lying on the big bunk bed, some snoring, some grinding their teeth, some farting...all kinds of sounds came one after another.
Qi Yun was lying on his side by the window, looking at the moon in the sky through the gap in the window.
I didn't go back during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I didn't know how Luo Yuniang was doing. Thinking of Luo Yuniang's smiling face before leaving, Qi Yun actually missed her a little.
The last time he went back, Luo Yu Niang seemed like a different person. In just a few days, he felt more comfortable with her than in the previous five years.
The scene of a scholar running away in a hurry in disheveled clothes three years ago suddenly appeared in his mind, and Qi Yun closed his eyes.
I knew it a long time ago and never cared about it before, but when I thought about it this time, I felt a little uncomfortable. It's really strange.
In the middle of the night, Qi Yun, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by a slight sound.
His earlier experiences had formed muscle memory in his body, allowing him to maintain his breathing rhythm when he noticed something unusual, without attracting the attention of people outside the window.
Only the left hand beneath the blanket was curled into a claw, ready to strike.
After a while, the man outside left and everything returned to normal.
Qi Yun opened his eyes and looked at the window that was slightly open, feeling puzzled.
What is this person here for?
Sneaking around in the middle of the night just to open the window a crack?
The next day, Qi Yun got up refreshed and continued to work. Feeling a gaze coming from a certain direction, he turned his head as if nothing had happened, but only saw the slightly swaying grass.
In a corner, two people were whispering to each other.
A woman dressed as a maid said with a puzzled look on her face: "Wasn't this person poisoned? He was exposed to the wind all night last night, so why is he still so lively?"
"You say, he didn't discover something?"
The other person who answered the maid was none other than Liu Tian, the steward of the Xi Mansion.
Liu Tian stroked his beard and frowned as he said, "I don't know why the higher-ups wanted to kill this guy. I don't think he has anything special about him!"
The girl curled her lips and said, "Who cares? We'll just do whatever the higher-ups say!"
Liu Tian nodded: "That's right, I'll think of a way later."
The two separated, and Liu Tian came over in the name of supervisor to check the work progress.
The Xi family planned to renovate the garden and hired ten helpers in total.
The rockery that cost a lot of money has been delivered and will be installed tomorrow.
When Liu Tian saw the scattered rocks aside, he suddenly had an idea.
