”Good daughter, drink.”
Zuo Yi Yun drank the medicine while recalling the words she had said to her every time he had coaxed her to drink it. Tears rolled down the corner of her eyes: ”Dad, do you think I'm being particularly obedient now? I didn't pour the medicine out, okay?”
”Thank you. I really don't know how to thank you.” Zuo Yi Yun said sincerely. Although Shui Qi Nan was always cold, she felt that she was a good person and was neither fake nor fake.
”No need, just hurry up and get better is the best way to thank me.” Shui Qiannan smiled and spoke with rare gentleness. Then, his eyes darkened, ”Tell me how I'm going to settle this matter in two days.”
”Although Hou Ziming might have been involved in this matter, I have no proof that he was involved. Furthermore, he did indeed jump into the lake to save me, as all of you have seen.” Zuo Yi Yun said.
”Indeed.” Shui Qiannan said.
”I got hit in the water. It's very likely that Hou Ziming ambushed me. However, I have no proof. Furthermore, he is a prince. Even if I have proof, it's useless.” Zuo Yi Yun said calmly.
”Yes, your father's concubine is in charge of your family, and Housekeeper Meng has a deep relationship with her.” Shui Qiannan mocked her. Back then, when she went to the Zuo Residence to bring Zuo Yi Yun out, she discovered that the Zuo Residence guards had let their guard down, but there were quite a few spies around.
Lin Ru and Butler Meng were completely unaware of these spies as they went into a room.
”Could it be that she wanted to harm me?” Zuo Yi Yun was a little angry and couldn't help but cough, ”Cough cough.”
”If she had harmed you, she would have attacked you long ago, and not when you were about to wake up. At this time, only one person could do that.” Shui Qiannan calmly said.
Zuo Yi Yun also thought about it after hearing her words. She just couldn't believe it. ”Him?”
”Hou Ziming. Other than him, no one else would want you to wake up. Shui Qiannan said.
”He's actually such a person. My dad has always wanted to betroth me to him, hehe.” Zuo Yi Yun sneered. ”Housekeeper Meng, Housekeeper Meng, our Zuo family has treated you well, but you are trying to take advantage of us.”
”Hou Ziming is an insidious and cunning person.” Shui Qiannan said.
”I just don't understand how my father was killed by Butler Meng.” Zuo Yi Yun was both angry and confused. How could Butler Meng, a mere Yellow Rank mage, kill her father?
”Are you sure that Butler Meng did it? Could it be someone else?” Shui Qiannan frowned and asked. Zuo Yi Yun shook her head and said, ”Butler Meng poisoned me. My father will not let him off easily. It's not like Butler Meng has no reason to silence my father.”
”He has a strange fruit?” Yin Hua Qing who had remained silent suddenly asked.
”Yes, he poisoned me. What's wrong?” Zuo Yi Yun looked curiously at Yin Hua Qing.
”It doesn't matter if it's him or the person who gave him the poison. Whenever there was a strange fruit to grow, there would be an even more poisonous herb that would scatter grass. The two would interweave and the person who harvested the strange fruit would have an inch of scattered grass. This grass is very poisonous for cultivators. Once someone gets poisoned by this grass, their spiritual energy will dissipate bit by bit and they will become a cripple. ” Yin Hua Qing said.
”Could it be that my father was hit by Inch Grass, and then was killed by Butler Meng …?” Zuo Yi Yun seemed to have lost her mind. She didn't dare to imagine just how much pain and despair her father would feel when his spirit energy dissipated. Zuo Yi Yun gritted his teeth and said, ”I will tear Butler Meng into a thousand pieces!”
