Flowers are expensive

Chapter 156 Who Poisoned Pear Blossom

"Are you looking at the stars? Grandma still looks at the stars?"

"People who live in the mountains are closest to the stars, so they naturally like to look at them. Don't you think grandma knows astronomy and geography?" Guan said with a faint smile.

"Grandma is a person who has seen the world when she goes out. Even if she understands, it's not surprising."

"What about you? It's not surprising that a person who can't remember many things suddenly remembered everything one day? The only strange thing is that he is unwilling to tell the people around him that he has recovered his memory. "

Man Ting was startled, facing Guan's pair of small black eyes staring at him, for the first time, he felt a feeling of being seen through.But he was still calm, and replied without changing his face: "Is grandma suspecting that I recovered my memory and didn't tell you? Why would I do this?"

With a slight smile on her face, Guan looked at the starry sky far away, raised her crutch and pointed to the brightest star and said, "The Big Dipper always allows people to find their way home. In the forest Don't be afraid if you lose your way here, look up at the stars, they are the closest to you when you are loneliest."

Man Ting frowned slightly, not understanding the meaning of Guan's words.Guan turned around slowly and looked at him and said, "You can't remember, right? When you were about four or five years old, I was afraid that you would get lost in the woods, so I told you to remember to go home before dark. If you find If you can’t find your way, don’t be afraid, you can find your way home by looking at the Big Dipper in the sky. Don’t you remember these words?”

"I don't remember." Manting felt that there was something in Guan's words.The deeper the old woman's smile, the tighter his heart became, as if something was plotted against him.

"If you can't remember the past clearly, then naturally you won't remember. But if you've never heard me say this, it's only natural that you don't remember."

When Guan said these words slowly, Man Ting's body froze slightly, and a breath of cold air poured from his nasal cavity to the bottom of his heart!Could it be that she has realized that she is not really Xie Manting?Now that she has noticed it, but she can still talk to her with a smile here, without showing any timidity, who is she?

Guan Shi actually smiled hehe, showing an aura of fearlessness in the face of the enemy.Manting is a head and a half taller than her, but under her deep and focused gaze, Manting feels pressured, as if there is something beyond her control, but she can.

"Are you interested in telling grandma what you have seen outside the mountain?" Guan Shi asked Man Ting with a smile.

Man Ting stared at Guan Shi hesitantly and asked, "Grandma wants to know that much?"

"Yeah, grandma has always been curious about how you spent the past few years outside the mountains? After you disappeared, grandma has been very worried."

"I can't remember."

"Is it because you can't remember clearly? Or what you saw were all big scenes, and you're afraid that you will scare grandma if you tell them?"

"What kind of scene is a big one in grandma's eyes?" Man Ting asked intentionally.

"For example, go to battle to kill the enemy. I heard you said that you seem to have stayed in the barracks. So, have you ever been on the battlefield? Have you ever killed someone?" Guan always asked with a loving smile, as if he cared about his grandson. old grandma.

"Killed."

"Did you miss it?"

Man Ting lowered his brows and asked back, "What do you mean by that?"

"Oh, I heard that sometimes the two armies fight like a raging fire, dizzy and dizzy, and can't tell who is the enemy and who is the friend, and they will slash when they raise their knives. That's why I asked you if you missed it? When the bad guy killed?"

Man Ting alertly noticed that what Guan said was trying to test him, it seemed that Guan already had doubts about him, maybe more than that.Man Ting took a soft breath, calming the ups and downs in his heart.If Guan Shi really had doubts, then there was nothing to hide.He replied: "No, I kill people who deserve to be killed."

"They are all people who deserve to be killed? Hehe... It seems that you have your own bottom line, right? Then do you think the Xie family treats you well?"

"Grandma," Man Ting said with his hands behind his back, looking at Guan Shi with serious eyes, "don't worry about other things, just talk about it!" He felt that there was no need to go around in circles with Guan Shi. He is very good at psychological warfare, but he is not weak, otherwise, how can he be called Yan Luo?
The Guan family breathed a long sigh of relief, nodded and said: "It seems that there is really no need to continue talking nonsense. Then tell me, what is your status in the Zhao family's royal family."

"How do you know that I am from the Zhao family?"

"There are traces of the Zhao family on your face, don't you know? You are very similar to someone from the Zhao family, and that's why you confused me in the first place."

"So, you didn't realize it early on? When did you realize that I'm not really Xie Manting?"

"A year ago, that time you were seriously injured by the robbers and you remained unconscious. I was really worried that you would die. You couldn't drink the medicine, so I asked someone to open your mouth and pour it in. Because of this, I found that you have a tooth that is different from the real Xie Manting. Children’s other teeth will be replaced, but the sitting teeth will not be replaced. The real Xie Manting has a missing sitting tooth, but yours is complete."

"Only because of this?"

"The fake one can't be real, the real one can't be fake, there are many things about you that are different from the real Xie Manting, I found out slowly later."

"Then why do you still keep me at Xie's house?"

"When I started to suspect you, I was thinking about how to deal with you. After much deliberation, I decided to keep you temporarily, because I want to know why a person with the blood of the Zhao royal family would Came to this secluded Zique Village. I don’t think it’s a coincidence, right?”

Man Ting snorted coldly and said, "Unfortunately, I haven't remembered it yet."

"Just because you don't remember, it doesn't mean that your followers can't remember who you are, right?"

"You know they've been here?"

"Every time I come late at night, don't I? I just left one just now, didn't I?" Guan said with a relaxed smile.

Man Ting didn't expect Guan Shi to have discovered the traces of Que Ling and Yan Amber long ago, but he didn't say anything for a while.

"Hehe..." Guan laughed heartily again, "Son, you don't have to look at me with that kind of eyes. I'm an old man, I don't sleep much, and I can feel the movement in the yard at night, no matter how light it is."

"But you are definitely not an ordinary old man." Man Ting was sure that You Xian'er's words were right at this moment.Guan's background must not be simple, maybe he is a reclusive expert.

"You're too proud. No matter how ordinary I am, I'm still an old man. I'm almost buried in the ground. How can I compete with your younger generation? Children, when are you going to leave?"

"Do you really want me to leave?"

"That's natural. I really want you to leave quietly, and I want you not to come back to Zique Village so that we can continue to live a peaceful life."

"Since you took me in, you should know that there are some things that are out of your control." A gleam flashed in Man Ting's eyes.

"But until now, everything is still under my control." Guan said with a firm gaze.

"How do you control it? Are you not afraid that I will slaughter the village after I restore my memory?"

"That depends on whether you can let go of one person!" Guan's mouth curled up with a smile that was sure of winning.

"What do you mean?"

"Remember? I told you once before that a woman who has not given birth to a child should not drink too much. The child born in that way will not be smart."

"I still remember, so... so?" Man Ting faintly sensed that something was wrong.

"After you reminded Lihua, did Lihua really stop drinking? However, if she continues to drink wine as water, her body will not be able to bear it!"

"What? What do you mean?" Man Ting shouted a little angrily.

"Do you know why I want you to get Pear Blossom back? Because if the child has touched alcohol recently, he will definitely have very uncomfortable symptoms."

"why?"

"Because—" Guan said with a faint smile, "I poisoned her!"

Man Ting was completely stunned, when did this happen?Guan Shi actually poisoned Lihua without anyone noticing?He suddenly felt a fire gushing out of his chest, as if it could set his whole body on fire!The uncontrollable anger hit his already muddy brain, he lost control for a moment, stepped forward with a stride, and grabbed Guan's throat like lightning!

"Really?" Man Ting asked angrily.

"Yes...really!" Guan Shi was pinched a little out of breath.The crutch in her hand fell to the ground, her dry hands tightly grasped Manting's strong arm, and said intermittently: "Kill me...she will never... never get better..."

"Who do you think you are?" Man Ting lowered his voice and shouted angrily.

"Then you do it...!"

Man Ting tightened his fingers, and then added another force, causing Guan to roll his eyes.But at this moment, he suddenly let go.Guan staggered a few steps back, fell to the ground, gasping for breath while stroking his heart.

Man Ting stared solemnly at Guan Shi on the ground and asked, "Why did you poison her? It seems that you are going to deal with me, not her!"

Guan took a few heavy breaths, and said: "If I poison you, maybe one day you will die with me, but if you poison Lihua, your bones will be cut in half, you don't want to watch She died."

"You really know how to be smart!" Man Ting clenched his fists and said, "Are you going to use a Qin Lihua to coerce me to let go of the people of Xie's family and the whole village? Even if I don't recover my memory at this moment, I can immediately Order the people in Jingyou City to massacre the village!"

"Jingyou City?" Guan Shi murmured, her eyes lit up slightly, she nodded and said, "You should be right at your age, right? Your name is Zhao Yuanyin, isn't it? Jingyou City is your fiefdom, your mother After the concubine died, she was relegated to Jingyou City in the southwest. I never expected that such a small Jingyou City would raise a tiger like you."

"You seem to know very well about the Zhao family."

"Heh!" Mrs. Guan slowly got up from the ground and laughed, "It's just a little bit of information. Then, Your Highness, what do you plan to do with Xie's family? Are you really going to send your army to slaughter the village? It's too big a problem Have you done it? If your father finds out, do you think your father will drive one crazy and kill the other like he did with your elder brother and second brother?"

"You know my father very well?" Man Ting looked at Guan Shi hesitantly and asked.

"Who dares to get to know an emperor?" Guan laughed coldly, "accompanying the king is like accompanying a tiger, not to mention, I am just an ordinary old man in the mountains. But you are different, you will not be so stupid as to give your father The emperor will kill you too, right? Besides, only I can cure the poison on Lihua, if you kill me, you will lose her forever!"

At the mention of pear blossoms, Man Ting's mind roared and he felt a headache.His expression changed slightly and he asked, "What poison did you poison her?"

"I figured it out when I was free. It's called wine to wear the intestines. Only wine can make the poison spread in the body step by step. This is a slow poison. It didn't hurt the body at first, but occasionally palpitations and chest tightness, but if If you continue to drink, you will end up with your intestines pierced to death."
