"Are you OK?"

Hongkui rubbed her knees, her face bitter, "Yes, but it's not a big deal. I fell asleep on the table last night. My feet are still a little sore and my head is still a little dizzy."

"The key is my face." Hongkui suddenly pointed at her own face, "Madam, look at my face, why is it so swollen?"

Lin You looked closely and found that Hongkui's cheeks were red and slightly bulging, and were indeed swollen.

Her eyelids twitched involuntarily, and she forced a stiff smile, "Uh, this..."

"Humph, it must be someone from Tianxianlou who took the opportunity to attack me. Damn it! When I get back, I will definitely teach them a lesson."

Hong Kui raised her fist and gritted her teeth.

"Ahem, actually, I pinched your face."

Hongkui was confused, but then she laughed, "Haha, so it was made by the queen. The queen made it because she thought Hongkui was cute, right?"

"Uh, yes." Lin You nodded.

She is cute, but she was not pinched because she thought she was cute, but because she was treated as a pig.

Hongkui was delighted. "Then next time, Madam, please be gentler, or it will hurt a little."

"Okay, I'll pay attention next time."

"Here, this is the medicine that the queen wanted. Hongkui has brought it to you. Isn't it great?"

Hongkui handed a wooden box to Lin You, raised her chin proudly, and waited for Lin You to praise her.

"sharp."

Lin You touched the top of her head, praised her, and was about to take the wooden box, but a shadow passed by and the thing in Hong Kui's hand disappeared.

The two of them looked tense and turned their heads to look, only to find that there was surprise in their eyes.

"Master!"

Hongkui was so frightened that she couldn't even straighten her tongue.

After saying this, she was about to turn around and run, but the old poison master came over and grabbed her by the back of the collar.

"You are such a bold little girl, how dare you steal Master's medicine!"

"Master, I, I, this is not the first time I have stolen. Why are you saying I am so bold today?"

When Hongkui was short of money, she would take the old poison master's medicine and resell it from time to time.

"Humph, that's because you didn't steal and give it to the wrong people before."

The old poison master said this angrily, glancing coldly at Lin You.

Lin You naturally understood what he meant and curled her red lips, "Old Poison Master, we meet again."

"What do you mean again? I have never seen you before!"

[Oh, look at how arrogant this old poison master is. He is clearly pretending to be ignorant even though he knows the truth! How could he be so angry if he didn't recognize me? ]

Hearing this, the old poison master's eyes widened even wider.

It’s true that none of the women in the harem are good people. They even curse in their hearts!

"Old Poison Master, we met at the trial meeting. I am the one who lied and claimed to be Senior Brother Hongkui." Lin You knew in his heart that the Old Poison Master was pretending, but he still explained.

She looked at the box in the old poison master's hand, "I will also give the old poison master money for this medicine."

"Humph, I don't need this little money."

As the old poison master spoke, he put the box into his arms.

"Master!" Hongkui shook his sleeves and acted like a spoiled child. "The Queen is a very kind person. She has saved Hongkui twice. Please give her the medicine."

"Well, let's put one thing in perspective."

The old poison master was about to leave carrying the red sunflower.

[Tsk, you are so stingy. No wonder the Queen Mother doesn't like you.]

The old poison master paused, turned around and was about to scold Lin You, but then he heard her inner voice say, "I even tried to test the Queen Mother's heart for him."

To test the Queen Mother's heart for him?

The words that were about to come out of the old poison master's mouth were abruptly stuck, and light surged in his cloudy eyes.

Go on, what does the Queen Mother think?

He stared at Lin You, feeling extremely anxious. Seeing him staring, Lin You stared back, [What are you staring at, you old man?]

【You deserve to be single for the rest of your life. 】

[He deserved to be shot to death by thousands of arrows from Pan Xue and Prince Yu, and died in front of the Golden Throne Hall, without even being able to see the Queen Mother for the last time.]

[It was right that the Queen Mother hated him to death before she died. ]

[If it weren't for you, an old man, who often sold poison to Pan Xue and Prince Yu, Shen Yu's plan to force the emperor to abdicate would not have succeeded, and the Queen Mother would not have been forced to choose to burn herself in the Golden Throne Hall rather than follow you, an old man.]

Self-immolation in the Golden Palace...

The old poison master's body shook violently, and the hand holding Hongkui suddenly loosened.

She ended up hating him.

Pan Xue, Prince Yu...

Could it be that the person who had been buying drugs from him before was the one called Pan Xue?

If her final fate was really caused by him, then he...

The old poison master's mind suddenly flashed through the image of the Queen Mother in the sea of ​​fire, eyes full of disappointment and resentment.

His heart suddenly tightened for some unknown reason.

It felt real, as if he had experienced it himself.

No, he couldn't let that happen.

"Name a price. How much do you want for this medicine?"

When Lin You saw him turn around and lower his head, he thought he was considering the price of the medicine.

Hongkui, who was standing next to him, was also shocked when she heard Lin You's thoughts. She didn't expect that the Master and the Queen Mother had such a connection in the end.

"Who cares about your money?"

The old poison master suddenly raised his head, narrowed his eyes and threw the box to Lin You.

"Since you saved my disciple, I will give you this medicine. From now on, we are even."

After saying that, the old poison master took Hongkui away.

Lin You was confused.

By the time she reacted, the master and disciple had disappeared.

[This old poison master is really weird! ]

Lin You didn't stay any longer. After all, Shen Yu and the others were also here, so he had to be cautious.

"Master, Hongkui doesn't want to leave yet."

Hongkui walked out of the grove and squatted on the ground. No matter how hard the old poison master pulled her, she couldn't move.

"If you don't leave, do you want to stay and help her?"

The old poison master glared at her.

"No, I just want to stay and watch the show. This show has the Queen Mother and the nun Li Fei. It must be very interesting."

Hong Kui tried to bring up the Queen Mother, and sure enough, when her master mentioned the Queen Mother, his expression changed.

Seeing that there was a play, she continued, "Besides, that Prince Yu and Pan Xue wanted to kill me last time, so I naturally wanted to stay and watch how they were pressed to the ground and rubbed by the Queen."

"Master, now in the eyes of Pan Xue and Prince Yu, I am on the same boat with the Queen. They will not let me go."

"So, what you just said about clearing the two is simply impossible."

The old poison master narrowed his eyes, weighing Hongkui's words.

Prince Yu is indeed not easy to deal with.

He has been in various black markets over the years and knows something about Prince Yu.

Prince Yu is the most ruthless towards useless people, without any hesitation.

Not to mention the people who get in his way.

"Humph, I will indulge you this time. If there is a next time..."

"Thank you, Master."

As soon as the old poison master finished speaking, Hongkui ran away.

"We'll talk about next time next time!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hongkui had disappeared.

The old poison master's beard trembled with anger. He flicked his sleeves and turned around, but turned back again.

He definitely didn't want to see her, he just wanted to go to the show.

Yes, just watching the show.
