Was this Marquis Shuo kidding? He even let a young lady of a big family be her maid. He could even think of this idea.

“If you didn't want to be served by Qiao Shu, I would find a maid for you, okay?” Shuo Ling continued to say to Yang Zijin.

He didn't want to let Yang Zijin leave like this.

Was this Marquis Shuo intentional? Yang Zijin continued to make excuses, “There is no need to trouble Marquis Shuo anymore. Besides, if a maid suddenly appeared in the mansion of marquis, someone in your home would definitely be suspicious!”

“You don't have to think much, just live here at ease.” Shuo Ling didn't listen to Yang Zijin's words at all.

Hearing Shuo Ling's words, Yang Zijin couldn't do anything but nod helplessly, “Okay, there's nothing else, I'll go first.”

Getting the satisfying answer, Shuo Ling stopped teasing Yang Zijin. He looked at her with a smile and nodded.

On the way back to the yard, Yang Zijin thought carefully. If she left the mansion of marquis, she wouldn't worry about being harmed by someone in secret. But if she went back to the Blossoming Peach, the people of the mansion of Duke Mu would come to her. She was not afraid, but she was afraid that they would threaten her with the people in the Blossoming Peach. Thinking about this, it was better to stay here. Since she now knew that someone wanted to hurt her, she could pay more attention to diet and work more cautiously.

As soon as she returned to the small courtyard, Qiao Shu brought the medicine.

Qiao Shu walked forward and brought the medicine to Yang Zijin, saying softly, “This is the medicine that I just cooked. Please drink it quickly. It will become more bitter when it is cold.”

“Put it down first.” Yang Zijin said lightly.

If Yang Zijin didn't have known about her poisoning before, she would have taken the medicine from Qiao Shu's hand and drunk it up. This time, she just wanted to see the reaction of Qiao Shu. After all, in Yang Zijin's heart, she thought that as a doctor and a lady of a big family, Qiao Shu could not do such a thing. But a people's mind was unpredictable, so it was better for her to be careful.

Seeing that Yang Zijin didn't drink, Qiao Shu asked, “How is your headache recently?”

“These days I have troubled Miss Qiao. My headache has been relieved. Thank you for your help.” Yang Zijin showed a trace of apology on her face.

Sitting down beside Yang Zijin, Qiao Shu smiled, “Young master Yang is too polite. As a doctor, this is what I should do.”

“Miss Qiao is too modest.” Said Yang Zijin.

“Today you look very good. How about I feel your pulse again?” Qian Shu continued to talk to Yang Zijin.

Hearing Qiao Shu's words, Yang Zijin put her hand on the table.

“Your pulse is peaceful and much better than before. If you continued taking the medicine for a few days, you would surely be healthy.” Qiao Shu showed a happy face.

Seeing Yang Zijin's silence, Qiao Shu continued saying, “Please drink up the medicine quickly, Young Master Yang. It will be useless for a long time.”

Seeing that Qiao Shu was so talkative today and she always talked about the medicine, Yang Zijin's suspicion about Qiao Shu increased.

She said to Qiao Shu with a smile, “Thanks for Miss Qiao's reminder.”

While speaking, she went to take the medicine bowl on the table. When Qiao Shu didn't pay attention, Yang Zijin overturned the medicine bowl and the soup was splashed on Qiao Shu.

“Oh, Miss Qiao, I'm sorry. I spilled the medicine accidentally and dirtied your clothes.” Yang Zijin looked at Qiao Shu apologetically.

Standing up, Qiao Shu wiped off the remaining soup on her body with her handkerchief. She looked at the spilled soup and said, “Never mind, Young Master Yang, but this medicine was wasted. I will decoct medicine again for you.”

“Thanks. It's just going to bother Miss Qiao again.” Said Yang Zijin.

Qiao Shu still smiled, “It doesn't matter. Please wait a minute.”

Seeing that Qiao Shu walked out of the yard, Yang Zijin was almost sure that it was Qiao Shu who drugged her. When she overturned the soup, she saw that there was a flash of anger on Qiao Shu's face. But she immediately covered it up with a smile.

When Qiao Shu returned to the yard, she set up a medicinal stove to decoct medicine again.

She thought about today's incident carefully. Did Yang Zijin already know about being poisoned and doubt about her? But on second thought, if Yang Zijin knew about it, why didn't Yang Zijin say it? Yang Zijin even continued to take the medicine. Maybe she just thought too more.

While Qiao Shu went to decoct the medicine, Yang Zijin found a small bottle and put the soup left in the bowl in the bottle. She decided to let uncle Liu have a look first.

She would think about what to do next when she knew the truth. If it was Qiao Shu who did it and even dared to hurt her, she wouldn't let her off!

Everything was determined. Yang Zijin decided to tolerate Qiao Shu first, so as not to act rashly and alert the enemy. Then she went out of the house quietly and came to the Blossoming Peach.

Just entering the gate, Yang Zijin saw all the girls under the peach tree learning embroidery from the Maid-in-Charge of Rites Li. She was very pleased.

When all the girls saw Yang Zijin, they greeted her one after another. However, now Yang Zijin did not have time to talk to these girls, so she just smiled and nodded at them.

Yang Zijin asked Xian, “How was your social relations.h.i.+p before among the people at the bottom?”

“Very good! There are no people who I am not familiar with in Jing City. Whether it's the owners of taverns and silk shops, or the street vendors and beggars, I all know how many people there are in their family and where they live.” Xian replied confidently.

Looking at Xian's proud appearance, Yang Zijin couldn't help shaking her head, and continued to ask Xian, “Then do you know about the mansion of Qiao?”

“Is it Qiao Yanlin, who works in the Imperial Health Inst.i.tute?” Asked Xian.

Yang Zijin nodded, “Right. You find a way to make trouble for him. It is better to be sensational.”

“Don't worry, Young Master. I will finish the task smoothly.” Xian replied firmly.

“That's good. I'll wait for your good news. This is five pence. It's the fee for the helpers after the work is done.” Then Yang Zijin handed the money to Xian.

Ordering Xian to do some things again, Yang Zijin walked to Uncle Liu's medical hall.

Coming to the alley and seeing the place where he had stayed before, Xian couldn't help but think that without Young Master, maybe he was still in this shabby place. Every day, he didn't have enough clothes to wear and didn't have enough food to eat. Thinking about this, his eyes were a little wet.

Xian calmed down, and walked three more lanes. Then he stopped. This alley was the gathering place of beggars. At this time, these beggars were sleeping on both sides of the alley. There seemed to be some new people. It was estimated that they joined during the time when he left.

“Brothers, get up and do some work,” Xian shouted.

Some beggars opened their eyes and looked at Xian strangely. They thought he was the one who came to tease them again. They ignored him and continued to sleep.

It was not strange. Although Xian was not a beggar before, he was no different from a beggar. Now, Xian was well dressed and had a clean face. No one would think that he was the know-all before.

Xian was a little anxious, and shouted to the men who had just opened the eyes to see him, “Dong, Goudan, hurry up. I'm Xian.”

Dong and Goudan opened their eyes again. Looking carefully, they found that he did have some similarities with Xian, but they were not sure. They got up and walked to Xian and asked, “Are you really Xian?”

“You are so sleepy that you can't recognize me,” Xian replied.

At this time, Dong and Goudan recognized that this person was Xian. They looked up and down at Xian. Touching his clothes with their hands, they looked at him incredulously, “You are rich now, boy.”

Xian remembered the task Yang Zijin ordered him. There was not much time. He didn't have time to greet with them. He said his intention directly, “Tell others. There's a wonderful job. When it's done, there will be five pence!”

“Five pence?” Dong and Goudan stared at Xian unbelievably with their eyes widen!

When Dong and Goudan calmed down, they asked in a low voice, “Is it killing people and setting a fire?”

“How could it be possible? Call others to get up and get ready to go with me. If you didn't, I could find someone else.” Xian urged Dong and Goudan.

Goudan said quickly, “No, no, I can do anything except for killing people and setting fire.”

While saying, he pulled Dong, beckoning him to call people together. Dong knew his thoughts and turned around and shouted together with Goudan, “Brothers, get up quickly, there is a job waiting for us to do. After we finish it, we will have five pence reward, enough for everyone to eat food for a long time.”

As soon as all the beggars heard that they would get money and food, they opened their eyes and stood up. For those who never knew where the next meal was coming from, money and food were the most tempting things.

Xian had already inquired that Mr. Qiao went to the mansion of Prime Minister to offer a birthday present early in the morning. It was time that he left the mansion. He simply explained how to do if they saw Mr. Qiao's carriage, and then waited for Mr. Qiao on his way home with beggars.

After a while, Xian saw that Qiao Yanlin's carriage was approaching. He immediately let Goudan get ready. Goudan understood.

They just saw Goudan quickly lying on the ground. As the carriage was driving on the street, the speed of the horse was not fast. The coachman quickly tightened the reins. The horse hissed. The carriage shook, making Qiao Yanlin dizzy.

“Whoops! I was. .h.i.t.” Lying on the ground, Goudan held his thighs tightly and kept wailing.

At this time, hearing the scream outside, Qiao Yanlin frowned and asked the driver, “What happened?”

“Mr. Qiao, a beggar suddenly appeared in front of the carriage, and was. .h.i.t by me.” The coachman replied worriedly.

Hearing that it was a beggar, Qiao Yanlin said disdainfully, “Don't pay attention to it. Go around.”

The coachman understood, pulling the reins and preparing to go around.

Seeing this, Goudan could not let the coachman leave and shouted, “Help. Everyone has a look. He hit me, but he even wants to leave. Is there any law in Jing City?”

Hearing Goudan's words, some busybodies gathered around, and blocked the way of the carriage. They all wanted to see who was sitting in the carriage.

“Who is it? Hurting a beggar, the people even want to leave.”

“Yeah. Maybe they want to escape responsibility when they see it is a beggar.”

“Well, I agree!”

All the people were talking at once!
