Hua Rui couldn't stop her tears from flowing.
"Lou, you …" Do you really believe me? "
"Silly Ruo'er, I don't believe you. Don't be too nervous, I'll send you home. You take a good rest, I'll go see you tonight, okay?"
Zhan Xiaolou's gentle voice made Hua Ruo feel more at ease.
"Lou, don't tell my mother. I don't want her to worry."
"Don't worry!"
After sending Hua Ruo back, Zhan Xiaolou started to carefully recall some of the details of the incident. This matter was definitely not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
Zhan Xiaolou ordered the men to dig out the metal box. He covered his mouth and nose with a towel and carefully opened it. However, the poison inside was the same as when he first put it in. There was no change at all. It didn't release any poisonous smell either.
Could it be that the abnormality of the flower had nothing to do with the poison?
He had been able to travel from the 21st century to this place. Furthermore, he had even seen the King of Hell when he arrived. He told himself that he must give birth to 100,000 children for the Moon Concealment, and that this world was filled with men giving birth to children … There were already many things that had refreshed Zhan Xiaolou's view.
This time, even the most incredible thing was something that she could accept.
But now, Hua Ruo didn't remember anything. She only remembered the dream that he told her about … There's another one that's exactly the same.
After thinking for a long time, he really couldn't figure it out. Zhan Xiaolou went to get Uncle Wen to call over Qu Chi and Jing Jue to come over, he wanted to hear their thoughts. After all, they were people of this world, and they had been fighting outside since they were young. I know something.
After hearing Zhan Xiaolou's story, the faces of Gu Qing and Jing Jue sunk into silence.
"This kind of strange thing... I've never heard of it, could it be that Hua Rui was drugged? "I heard that some of the ancient villages in the south know these evil arts, but they are only legends." Jing Jue thought about it and said.
"But who told them to harm Hua Ruo? He is just a small man who has yet to step out of the door. Where did his nemesis come from? " Qirin was also surprised.
"Little Lou, why don't you tell this to the first floor and ask my brother to help you investigate. You know, we have people everywhere in the Lunar Monument. They can always find out something."
Jing Jue's suggestion wasn't out of the question, but the first floor was dedicated to serving the imperial government. She didn't dare to trouble them, but there was nothing she could do.
"I can also get my mother to send someone to investigate this matter in the capital." Qu Jin also immediately said.
Zhan Xiaolou pursed his lips and said, "This matter shouldn't be revealed to the public. Otherwise, it might cause a panic or alert the enemy. We can only investigate from the shadows."
Her words implied that both of their suggestions had been agreed. Her intuition told her that this matter was not simple, and she did not want Hua Rui to suffer any more harm.
It was the fifteenth day of the first month and a banquet was being held in the palace. As usual, officials were invited to the banquet. When they arrived at the pavilion, Jing Jue and Gu Ruoyun received invitations to enter the palace late at night.
Zhan Xiaolou saw that Jing Jue was a little lonely and knew that he was regretting what he had said to her earlier about cooking. Now it seemed that there was only another day.
"Jing Jue, it's fine. You stay here with me every day, are you afraid that you won't be able to show off your culinary skills? Tomorrow we'll do it together and you can teach me how to cook. "
"Alright."
Zhan Xiaolou felt much better as he looked at Jing Jue, who had changed his attitude towards him. It would be better to have a good friend to talk to than a cold-faced man who was against him.
