Chapter 279: Weaving a Web
You Xue looked at his disdainful face and smiled, "This person is a smiling tiger, but his character is not bad, I will go there later, but the Tingwei Mansion should not interfere too much in this kind of thing." ”
Lan Ke glanced at her: "Boss, I know that you are very busy and have no time to pay attention to this kind of thing, but those who are missing are all pregnant women, and they are pregnant with Liujia! High-ranking officials, rich and ordinary people, that evil thief will not let go! The king has already issued an edict to tie the two mansions together, so that they can catch the thieves as soon as possible, otherwise they will be asked!"
You Xue frowned and said, "Jin Yumei is also pregnant?"
She counted the time in her heart, Lan Jingshuo was also assisting in the water conservancy matter in Liba City, and the army of the Western Expedition would not come back until about half a month later.
Now that there are few men in the Lan family, it is no wonder that this Lan Jin family found Nanxing Tower, she wanted to face Yuan Ziyue and ask her to hand over Jin Yumei, but she didn't expect to meet her and peek into the identity of Nanxing's father-in-law.
"I heard that Lan Jicheng's old fox has been seriously ill since Lan Zheng was imprisoned, and he has not left the mansion for half a step, do you know if it is true?"
Lan Ke held his forehead and said helplessly: "Boss, do you always ignore my words? I told you the day you came back, Lan Mansion can't enter, their entire mansion is now like a copper wall full of secret whistles, if you break in, you will be shot into a hedgehog." ”
You Xue raised half of her eyebrows in surprise, "What about Wang Lian?"
"Who knows, at that time, I pulled Sister Yue to talk about the disappearance of the pregnant woman, and when the two of us went back to discuss with him, he was gone. ”
"Oh, in that case, let's add another fire to them. You Xue smiled faintly, knowing that Wang Lian was unreliable, she turned around and left Nanxing Tower and headed towards Xishi.
At night, the West Market is full of rancid and dirty smells, and the ragged beggars are also crowded in the streets and alleys of this land.
She walked through this filthy place without squinting, and finally saw a particularly conspicuous two-story wooden building standing among the flat and dilapidated houses.
The appearance is more dilapidated than Yuan Ziyue described, but after stepping into the courtyard door, I found that one door is separated by two worlds, some common herbs are planted on the land east of the courtyard, and another piece of land is opened, green vegetables and fruits are readily available, and every corner of the courtyard is placed in an orderly manner, without a trace of debris obstructing the eyes, and it is very clean and pleasing to the eye.
The old servant led her into the hall and departed.
The white wall wooden corridor, the tables and chairs are neat, there is no dust, and there is a strange medicinal fragrance floating in the air, which seems to be rich in sandalwood, and fresh like flowers and trees.
"You're here for the Yue family?"
Walking down the steep wooden ladder on the left, a man in Tsing Yi with an elegant face was Guan Cunshan, who had not been seen for more than a month, and at this moment, he seemed to be younger, with a sharp aura between his eyebrows that made people dare not look directly, which made You Xue feel a little weird.
"No, I'm here for Dr. Guan's prescription. ”
Guan Cunshan walked to the table and poked the wick of the candle, and the room suddenly lit up, and he said, "What's wrong with the prescription?"
You Xue looked at him slowly and elegantly, and thoughtfully expressed the question in her heart: "Qiu's has a heart disease, but every medicine of Doctor Guan is the medicine of a tiger and a wolf, not to question Doctor Guan's medical skills, but to ask Doctor Guan to give advice, what kind of disease is Qiu's?"
Guan Cunshan's indifferent and ruthless face showed a strange look, and he looked at You Xue and said, "The girl once said, but if you practice the path of cultivation, you can also purify yourself." ”
You Xue nodded, quietly waiting for him to follow.
"That being the case, girl, please come back, this matter, Guan has his own opinions. ”
The candle flame reflected the golden light in his glass-clear eyes, which reminded You Xue of the fire in the temple that night.
"But the Yue Mansion has stopped taking Doctor Guan's prescription, will it hinder Qiu's condition?"
Guan Cunshan didn't speak anymore, just stood with her hands behind her back, his eyes fell on the pink and white wall painted opposite, as if he could stare at flowers.
You Xue stared at him for a moment, as if she had an epiphany, and turned around thoughtfully and left the small building.
Three points of musk, crispy turtle, five coins of gold tripod arsenic, five coins of realgar, three coins of unicorn, supplemented by Qianbu Peak, Prophetic Seed, Xuejie Seed, etc., if this kind of thing really makes people boil it and give it to Qiu, it only takes one dose to make Qiu's life return to the West.
Moreover, she didn't feel that Qiu's pulse was different, so it can be seen that the medicinal materials he prepared were not as written in the prescription.
So who is Guan Cunshan so blatantly sticking to this quack prescription?
She was stunned when she thought of this, these are herbs that have the effect of warding off evil spirits... She closed her eyes and carefully recalled the details of Yue's mansion, but the smile of Yun Niang and the withered flowers and trees all over the yard lingered in her mind.
Midnight is approaching, Wanfu Building is still noisy, rich people gather, and Mei Ji Xiaoqi shuttles between floors and is very busy.
Lan Ke was burying his account books in the council building, and couldn't help yawning, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that his subordinates had reported that the Nanxing girl was waiting for him in Man Tingfang.
I've only seen it this afternoon, and there are countermeasures to act on so soon?
Alas, Sister Ziyue can't come out of the palace, it's a pity that we can't play together.
He snickered to himself, and immediately the wolf squandered his pen to write, and after the last book was reviewed, he threw the pen on the table, then got up and changed his outfit and hurried towards the next door Man Tingfang.
In the hall full of gold and splendor, a high platform was erected today, and the four sides were separated by colorful gauze and silk, and the sandalwood long tables were all full.
The second and third floors are also draped with gauze curtains, hung with red silk streamers, and on each window lattice, a peony bead flower is tied.
Today is the Oiran banquet of Man Tingfang, and he will perform his talent later, and the one who gets the most pearl flowers is the Oiran of the month of Man Tingfang.
You Xue sat in the private room with the best view on the second floor, looking at the ten graceful red gauze covered dancers who were brought to the table downstairs, and heard someone talking on the windowsill on the third floor above her head, "I just saw that the notorious son in the second room of the Lan family also came over, why can't I see anyone now?"
These are all the gentlemen of the royal capital, and this one who speaks in a low tone and frustration should be Gu Yong's concubine, Gu Zilin.
"He's down now, he should be on the table below!"
"Shut up, the Lan family tree has deep roots, be careful of your head, this is the property of the third master of Lan. ”
"Hey, the second room has already been kicked out by the Lan family, and the third master Lan has been imprisoned, and now the huge Man Tingfang is not in the pocket of the Jin Mansion. ”
Listening to a few people counting the current situation of the Lan family, You Xue sneered, they all looked too shallow, the glory of the Lan family was not given by the queen, and the power of the Jin family was difficult to compete with at all, otherwise, Jin Shikang would not have made the bitter meat trick fall off the horse and hide at home to avoid trouble.
The commander of the dignified Shenwu Battalion... , That's it, You Xue sighed.
At this time, the door behind him was opened, and You Xue turned his head to see that it was Lan Ke.
"All ready?"
Lan Ke nodded, but his eyes were full of doubts, "Boss, why? The second room is already an abandoned son of the Lan family, and it is not worth our help." ”
