Xiǎo Shé giggled at her "Master I entered his study but there were too many books and I can't even open them they were sealed and also after Zong Shen returned he was injured badly there was black blood sprouting from his body and his chest was severely injured"
"Severely injured?"
Xiǎo Shé nodded her head up and down and gave a detailed explanation of what she saw including their conversation. Ye Qiran squinted her eyes
"Hmm....interesting he is doing some research but on what? what is about that research made him risk his life for?"
Xiǎo Shé blow on her cup a little and drank her milk slowly while her master is in deep thoughts, she won't dare to interrupt her Master's thoughts in the middle afraid of losing her snacks, it will be the worst punishment for the glutton Xiǎo Shé.
Remembering something Xiǎo Shé turned towards her Master wanting to speak but sat there not disturbing her while drinking milk. Ye Qiran turned towards Xiǎo Shé, feeling Xiǎo Shé's eyes on her she motioned the cute Lolli to speak "Master that Zong Shen is poisoned"
"What did you say he is poisoned?" widen her eyes in disbelief, Ye Qiran knows that he is poisoned by his father when he was thrown out of the family, but when he came back there was no sign of poison on his body nor did he shown any signs of him poisoned. with his increase in cultivation which is on par with the officials is what, Ye Qiran believed would be an obstacle in dealing with him.
Xiǎo Shé nodded her head again before taking the last sip she rubbed her mouth with her backhand and said her analysis of the poison
"At first when he entered, I didn't sense any poison in him nor others but after him bandaging his body I felt a faint smell on poison the ground then when everyone left, I moved towards the poison blood on the ground which suddenly erupted in flames without leaving a dust, also Zong Shen's condition is really not suitable to have any cultivation but the aura he emitted when he entered the room frightened me so much"
Ye Qiran tilted her head in confusion and then rubbed her forehead Xiǎo Shé's analysis can't be wrong since she personally trained her in poison arts and also evoked her ancient bloodline with the help of Lu Si Cheng.
Ye Qiran went into a dilemma she has too many questions and desperately needs answers to them but the only person who can answer her is Zong Shen she mentally reminded herself that she needs to nudge her brother to arrange the meeting with him as early as possible.
Ye Qiran turned towards Xiǎo Shé who was close to drifting to sleep, she rubbed her head waking her up "you will continue to spy on him, also escape directly if you feel you are in danger and one more thing, I will call you until then spy on him" Xiǎo Shé bobbed her head the suddenly looked at Ye Qiran with twinkling eyes
"What is it?"
"Master my food supplies are empty" saying she hurriedly showed her storage ring to Ye Qiran, who twitched her mouth as she knocked Xiǎo Shé's head and spoke
"you glutton brat!! how many times have I said you not to complete your food supplies just because you are coming to me!! huh!!"
"But...but..."Xiǎo Shé pouting cutely with tears brimming her eyes Ye Qiran hardened her will not succumb but failed miserably when her tears fell like a faucet. she scolded her softly and promised to refill her bag.
Zong Shen's study room,
Zong Shen sat in his chair breathing heavily after completely arranging the data and the information about the ingredients used in the pill to see if there is any way he can make reverse the pill effects or dissolve the pill effects. Shi Xiaoya entered and stood in front of him without disturbing him,
Zong Shen feeling a presence lifted his head to look at Shi Xioaya who was intently looking at his side, frowned his brows he turned not seeing anyone, then he heard faint breathing and looked down to see a young servant boy fall asleep while crouching down and there were two teapots on the table beside him.
No wonder he was enjoying his tea today, this young boy is very diligent in his work shaking his head he turned towards Shi Xiaoya and coughed twice to turn her attention towards him. Shi Xiaoya turned to him raising her eyebrows in question, Zong Shen instead squinted his eyes at her impatiently
Shi Xiaoya sighed and became serious at once "Lu Tao Yan sent a messenger" saying she handed him a scroll. Zong Shen put down the scrolls in his hand, to take the scroll from her, he opened the scroll and became serious as he read the contents of the scroll.
Shi Xiaoya fidgeted nervously at his serious expression and asked him
"Master Zong Shen, what is it?"
Zong Shen looked at her fidgeting and said "she agreed to meet me alone but, on a condition,"
"And what is the condition?"
"I should give her all the information on the people Officials Experimented with the curse, in turn, she will meet me not notifying anyone from her side"
