Chapter 76 Responsibilities as a Father
"Why is the prince here?"

"Passing by, I heard that someone committed suicide here, so I came to have a look."

Jun Tingsheng gave a brief explanation, and when Qiao Xu ordered the person to be carried away, he kindly reminded him: "This person died in a strange way, Mr. Qiao should check it carefully when he returns."

Qiao Xu's expression froze, but he returned to normal in a blink of an eye, and he bent slightly: "Thank you for reminding me, my son, I will."

Qiao Xu was eager to take the man away, and seemed worried that someone would see the corpse, so he ordered the corpse to be covered with a cloth.

The more Jun Tingsheng looked at it, the more he felt something was wrong, so while he was distracted, he asked aloud, "Who is this person?"

"The major criminal in the Wuzhou corruption case."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Qiao Xu immediately came to his senses, and suddenly turned his head to look at Jun Tingsheng, his face became very ugly.

How could he have missed it!

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is keeping a close eye on this case, and I hope that your Majesty will not mention what happened today."

After Song Baoling heard his words, he suddenly started to have a headache, as if something was about to come out.

"It hurts..."

Seeing this, Jun Tingsheng panicked, and quickly supported her: "Ling'er, what's wrong with you?"

"My head hurts, I...I don't want to be here."

Seeing that she was in severe pain, Jun Tingsheng didn't want to entangle Qiao Xu anymore, and after a casual sentence, he immediately took Song Baoling away.

It wasn't until she got in the carriage and moved away from the street that Song Baoling's headache gradually eased. This reversal convinced her that what happened just now was not simple.

"How is it? Does your head still hurt? I'll ask the doctor to take a look when I get back later."

Song Baoling immediately waved his hand and refused, "No, I'm much better. Maybe there were too many people on the street just now. I'm fine now."

However, Jun Tingsheng kept staring at her closely, and saw that she was lying and did not expose it, but just wanted to get someone to find a doctor later.

After returning to the Song Mansion, Jun Tingsheng immediately asked for a doctor, and then sent Song Baoling back to his room to rest.

"Miss, Master Hou is here."

As a result, as soon as the two of them sat down, the servant girl hurried over to report. The next moment, Song Baichuan appeared in front of them with an expressionless face.

Jun Tingsheng remembered what he said earlier, and took the initiative to salute: "Master Hou."

Song Baichuan frowned in displeasure, and said bluntly in front of Song Baoling: "Young Master Xie sent the little girl back, it's getting late, and the Young Master should go back too."

However, this time, Jun Tingsheng did not compromise.

"Ling'er is not feeling well. I have sent someone to invite the doctor. After the doctor checks and confirms that Linger is fine, I will leave."

It's a pity that Song Baichuan refused mercilessly, "No need, the son doesn't know medical skills, so it's useless to stay."

"Besides, there are so many people in the mansion, and I will take care of Ling'er myself, so the son doesn't have to worry about the Song mansion."

As he said that, he even made a gesture of seeing off the guests, "Please, my son, I will take you out."

Just like that, Jun Tingsheng was kicked out of the house before the doctor could even check on Song Baoling.

When they reached the gate of the mansion, the two stood facing each other. Song Baichuan warned again: "Ling'er is still young, and she doesn't understand many things in the world, and her heart is sinister. From now on, the son should stay away from her, so as not to be maliciously speculated by outsiders."

Jun Tingsheng was speechless, he knew that Song Baichuan was not only worried about gossip, but also about his identity.

The Chengyang Palace is a royal family, and the royal family has always had constant disputes. Song Baichuan didn't want Song Baoling to be involved.

This is the responsibility of being a father.

Song Baoling was leaning against the head of the bed, the doctor was taking her pulse, and Song Baichuan was waiting nervously beside her.

"Master Hou, don't worry. Miss, this is a headache caused by overwork. You just need to rest for a while and you'll be fine."

Hearing this, Song Baichuan finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked someone to send the doctor away.

Seeing his worried look, Song Baoling comforted him with a smile: "Don't worry, Daddy, it's not a big deal, I'll be fine after I sleep tonight."

"Dad was too tired from training soldiers some time ago, so go back and rest quickly, Ling'er is fine."

Song Baichuan wanted to tell her about Jun Tingsheng, but seeing how tired she looked, he didn't mention it in the end. He just told her to pay attention to her body and left.

Maybe it was really too tired, Song Baoling fell asleep after lying on the bed for a while, and slept well all night, until it was almost dawn, but he had a nightmare.

Dead bodies, lots of dead bodies...

Song Baoling saw a lot of dead bodies in his dream, and the place should be around Wuzhou, but how could there be so many dead bodies?

"no no……"

Song Baoling screamed and sat up from the bed, the image of dead bodies all over the ground in her dream was still lingering in her mind, she felt like she was sweating all over.

Xu Shi sensed her uneasiness, and the little snake in her arms came out and circled around the ground for a few times before slipping out through the half-open window.

"Hey, where are you going?"

Song Baoling hurriedly got out of bed, put on her shoes and clothes, and when she ran out, the little snake had already disappeared, so she had to follow the little snake's trail to continue searching.

Running all the way to find, when passing a small courtyard, Song Baoling suddenly heard someone talking behind the rockery, it sounded like Song Baozhu.

"Miss, nothing will happen, just in case..."

"What if? Am I going to kill my own sister?"

Song Baozhu stuffed the porcelain bottle in her hand into the servant girl's hand, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, this medicine won't kill you. You just need to put a little in her meal every day, and after a few days, when the toxicity takes hold, she won't be able to breathe." Entering the palace to participate in the selection of concubines."

"When the time comes, I will give you whatever you want, and I always do what I say."

Although the servant girl was still a little scared, she immediately nodded her head in agreement when she thought that she could get out of the lowly status and get a lot of money.

"Miss, don't worry, the servant will definitely prevent the second lady from entering the palace to choose a concubine."

Song Baoling heard their conversation clearly. She knew that Song Baozhu would not let it go easily, but she never thought that she would poison her own sister. Such a method was too cruel.

After thinking about it, Song Baoling quietly followed the maidservant, and when she wasn't paying attention, he replaced the poison with a delicious medicine.

"What should I do with this medicine?"

Song Baoling looked worried at the poison in his hand, and thought of the scheming Song Baozhu, so he hid the poison, thinking that he might be able to use it someday.

"Where did the snake come from, catch it quickly!"

"What are you afraid of? Such a small thing can be trampled to death with one foot."

"Don't talk nonsense, kill it quickly, who knows if it is poisonous, what if it runs into the Shizi tent!"

The noise outside made Jun Tingsheng a little upset, he threw the letter on the table and got up, and walked out of the tent to see what happened.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he went out, he saw several soldiers gathered together. He followed their eyes and saw a little snake avoiding swords.

"stop!"

Jun Tingsheng sternly stopped their actions, and went over to see that it was indeed the little snake raised by Song Baoling.

"My lord, this snake came from nowhere, you'd better stay away, in case it hurts you..."

"You go."

The speaking soldier froze for a moment, exchanged glances with his companions, turned and left one after another.

Jun Tingsheng squatted on the ground and looked at the little snake. The few times we met before, the little snake was very unfriendly to him. If he was upset, he would attack him, but Song Baoling stopped him every time.
