When the two came out from the forest, Bai Mayan and his party had already entered the house.

Mr. Zhang and his disciples had just returned from picking herbs, and their bodies were covered in mud, but they didn't bother to wash up. They helped Mr. Huang see a doctor first.

When Li Xi and Zuo Ji came in, Mr. Zhang noticed Li Xi's expression.

He couldn't help but also glanced at Zuo Ji.

Frowning, he felt that something was wrong, but he didn't ask because of the presence of others.

Bai Mayan waited anxiously by the side, seeing them coming in, he also noticed that their expressions were not right.

He had also noticed the woman running away before.

So he asked, "Did you get it back?"

"I didn't catch up." Zuo Ji was in a bad mood, and said, "You're crazy, you ran away and disappeared."

After hearing this, Bai Mayan didn't care.

Originally, he didn't know that person at all, so he was rescued on the way.

It's gone, it's gone.

What he is most worried about now is Uncle Huang.

Especially when seeing Zhang Lao's face becoming more serious.

Mr. Zhang checked Mr. Huang carefully again, and then said to Bai Mayan, "It's poisoning. And it's more tricky."

"Can it be cured?"

"Hard to say."

Even Zhang Lao was not sure, Bai Mayan frowned.

"Please be sure to save him, because he is..."

"I know, today's Saint Wu Yu."

These words, like a bullet, instantly exploded among Bai Mayan, Zuo Ji and Li Xi.

Baima Yanwan didn't expect Mr. Zhang to know, it was a surprise.

Li Xi, on the other hand, was completely stunned.

At the end, after thinking about it, he looked at Zuo Ji, Zuo Ji could hardly hide his shock, his face was full of fear.

Curing and detoxification is not a matter of overnight, so Bai Mayan lives here.

Mr. Zhang's place is not big, so he can't accommodate so many people, so he discussed with Bai Mayan and Li Xi, and asked Bai Mayan to keep only one servant, and the rest will follow Li Xi to live in Yicheng tomorrow, waiting for the master's news.

This night, Li Xi and the others stayed here temporarily.

In the middle of the night, moths flew into the flames, Li Xi was sleepless, and was making tea alone in the thatched pavilion. Zhang Lao came out of Wu Yu's room and saw him sitting under the lamp from a distance. After thinking for a while, he came over here.

"Teacher." Seeing him coming, Li Xi got up and saluted him respectfully.

"Sit." Elder Zhang motioned.

Finally, sitting face to face with him, Mr. Zhang asked him: "Do you have something on your mind?"

Seeing Li Xi's expression, Mr. Zhang got the answer.

"Is it because of Zuo Ji?"

Li Xi was silent for a long time before he said: "When we just arrived here today, the woman we rescued on the way went mad and ran into the forest. secret."

"Oh?" Old Zhang was surprised.

Li Xi looked up in distress, "It turns out that Zuo Ji is the biological son of Wu Yu and Concubine Chong."

Mr. Zhang was almost scalded by the tea, but in the end, he was quite shocked.

"She said that Zuo Shicheng forced her to replace the child born to Concubine Chong."

When Li Xi said this, it was gone.

Mr. Zhang thought about it deeply, no.

"Are you worried that after he knows the truth, he will go back and recognize his ancestors for glory and wealth?"

"He won't." Li Xi was very depressed: "On the contrary, he asked me to kill her after he knew the secret."

This surprised Mr. Zhang.

After being silent for a while, Zhang Laocai said: "He is a kind and righteous person."

This is exactly what troubled Li Xi.

The second he knew the truth, what he was nervous about was not his own background, not his glory and wealth, but Zhong Sheng who was far away in the imperial city.

How could Li Xi accept this.

"Then, that woman, you really..."

"No." Li Xi shook his head: "She took advantage of my hesitation and ran away."

After listening to Mr. Zhang, he nodded fortunately.

After this, Li Xi felt that he was not well.

Even if Zuo Ji lost his memory, Zhong Sheng was still on his mind.

For Zhong Sheng's sake, he could become so ruthless.

Li Xi always wondered if he would never be able to replace Zhong Sheng's position in his heart.

Realizing that he was thinking too much again, he withdrew his thoughts.

At the end, he smiled faintly at Mr. Zhang.

Seeing him like this, Mr. Zhang was very worried.

"You remember what I told you earlier?"

Before Li Xi left, he had met Mr. Zhang once.

At that time, Mr. Zhang advised him not to go. He said that he just wanted to make sure that Zuo Ji was safe. Now that he brought him back, the matter was brought back along with him. He also provoked Wu Yu and found out such a big secret. It is impossible to escape now.

"What are you going to do next?"

"I don't know." Li Xi lowered his eyes, drank a sip of tea, and said bitterly, "One step is one step, let's go back to Yicheng with him first."

Mr. Zhang still disapproved of Li Xi's approach.

However, he knew that Li Xi was deeply involved in this love word, and it was useless to persuade him.

Knowing that he is upset, she doesn't talk too much, so let him go for now.

They didn't know that the conversation between the two was overheard by one of Bai Mayan's servants, Ah Tai.

Ah Tai learned the secret, hesitated for a long time, and finally went to Wu Yu's bed and told Bai Mayan.

Bai Mayan was shocked when he heard this.

At the end, after thinking about it, he told Ah Tai: "Don't make any noise."

Auntie heard this, nodded and accepted the order.

Because of this incident, Zuo Ji, who was staying in the next room, didn't sleep either.

He was thinking about the past.

He seemed to have guessed how the previous Zuo Ji died.

In the beginning, it was the spies who reported back, and Wang Bo received Zuo Shicheng's order to find them.

Then, he pretended to save his siblings, showed them his goodwill, took Zuo Ya back to the village to hide, and looked for a chance to kill him, but he escaped and escaped.

When he was drunk, he entered Yuanyuan, where he hid all the time. Later, Zuo Shicheng found out about it somehow, and sent someone to send him a pill, asking him to eat it.

Why so sure.

It was because he remembered a very important thing.

When Zhong Sheng sent him to the prime minister's mansion, he told Zuo Shicheng that he had been plotted against, so he lost his memory.

But when Zuo Shicheng explained to Mrs. Zuo, he said that he was poisoned.

There were no traces left in Yuanyuan. Neither Mo Jia nor Li Xi belonged to Zuo Shicheng, and Zhong Sheng didn't mention it. If Zuo Shicheng wasn't a black hand, it would be impossible to know.

As for how to make him swallow the medicine willingly.

Of course it is: blackmail him with the truth!

For the former Zuo Ji, what could be more important than Zhong Sheng's life.

In order to fulfill the one he loves, he must be bored with that thing.

does it worth?

Thinking of this, his eyes turned red.

Suddenly, someone opened the door and came in. He blinked quickly, calmed down, and turned his head to look.

Li Xi came in and felt uncomfortable seeing him like this.

But, as if he didn't see it, Li Xi came in and closed the door, and said to him, "Tomorrow we will set off and go back to Yicheng."

"Okay." Zuo Ji nodded and smiled at him.

The more Zuo Ji was like this, the more Li Xi understood that his heart was not with him, and the resentment towards Zhong Sheng grew deeper in his heart.
