Chapter 5 One Thousand Taels of Silver

Sure enough, when the guard's sword reached the top of Murong Qingxue's head, it was caught by two fingers, and with a fierce force, the sword was clamped into two sections, and it landed with a "clang", making a crisp sound. And Murong Qingxue's eyes didn't blink from beginning to end.

The guards were shocked: "Lord Wang!"

Dongfang's deep affection made the guards dare not speak anymore, and finally lowered their heads. "The king has not yet spoken, but you will fight and kill. Could it be that the Dust King's Mansion is now your home?"

The guard was shocked, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Lord Wang, it's Leng Yun who made the time, please ask the prince to surrender." ”

Dongfang Juechen didn't look at him, just raised his hand slightly, and Leng Yun immediately got up and stood behind him.

Murong Qingxue didn't have much surprise on his face, and watched coldly. Dongfang Juechen looked at her, her unstained and fresh face was really incommensurate with this coarse linen, but the temperament inside couldn't be hidden. At that moment, he finally smiled: "That's right, I am Dongfang Jiechen." ”

He originally thought that Murong Qingxue would change his opinion of him, even if it was not worship, he should be sincerely afraid, after all, his dust prince was a legend in Xiling Kingdom. Unexpectedly, she still had a faint face, bowed respectfully, and said: "I still have something to do, so I won't accompany the prince, and the prince will do it himself." ”

She calls herself "I", but she is not a "slave", Dongfang Juechen frowned again, for such a long time, no woman dared to do this, but despite this, she was not angry. He stopped Murong Qingxue, Murong Qingxue turned around, but he was obviously a little impatient, he hurried to grab medicine for his mother, where did he have the leisure to chat with this so-called prince here: "I don't know what else the prince commands?"

Dongfang Juechen frowned, he had wrinkled three times in this short period of time, and Leng Yun's heart went up and down, and he couldn't figure out what was going on. If this is normal, as long as the prince frowns, this person will not have a way to live. And at this moment, he wrinkled three times, and he went to help the prince solve this person, but the sword was broken. Leng Yun couldn't help but wipe the beads of sweat from his forehead.

Dongfang Juechen said: "This king didn't intend to hurt the girl, I don't know how to compensate?" Murong Qingxue smiled slightly: "Didn't the prince just put the responsibility on me? ”

Although Murong Qingxue was teasing herself, seeing her smile, Dongfang Juechen's heart still moved. With a clever smile and beautiful eyes, I can still see such a smart smile. immediately smiled and said: "This king is just joking with the girl, if the girl disdains, then give up." With that, he turned and walked to the carriage.

"Wait. Murong Qingxue shouted. Dongfang Jiechen turned around and showed a satisfied smile: "This king's words, no one has ever been able to refuse. ”

Murong Qingxue looked down on Dongfang Juechen's invincible expression at this time, so he asked, "Does the prince really agree to any conditions?" Seeing Murong Qingxue's slightly cunning expression, Dongfang Juechen's eyes had a trace of hesitation, because he felt that the girl in front of him was not simple, but since the words had been spoken, how could he take them back in front of everyone, so he nodded stubbornly.

Murong Qingxue looked at this expression and was very funny, so she asked, "If I want to be the princess of dust, will the prince also agree?" Sure enough, Dongfang Juechen's face changed and he didn't answer. He was self-willed and uninhibited, and he never thought of marrying a wife, but when he suddenly heard this request, he was speechless for a while. Although Leng Yun felt that this girl was too ashamed, but because of the previous incident, he didn't dare to say much, and just stood quietly behind Dongfang Juechen.

Murong Qingxue looked at the scene in front of her and felt funny, after all, saving her mother and relatives was important, so she stopped joking. said at the moment: "The prince doesn't have to be careful, I'm just joking." Since the prince loves me so much, then I will not be relieved of the prince's kindness. One thousand taels of silver. ”

Dongfang Jiechen didn't seem to understand, he couldn't believe his ears, could it be that one of his dignified prince's conditions was only worth 1,000 taels of silver? Is this woman a fan of money, or does she look down on herself at all? How could he know what Murong Qingxue wanted this silver for.

"Prince, do you want to regret it? If the prince is unwilling, just because I didn't say it. Murong Qingxue turned around to leave.

"Stop. Leng Yun, give her the silver. Leng Yun obeyed the order, took a thousand taels of silver tickets at the moment, and handed them to Murong Qingxue. Murong Qingxue took the silver ticket with a smile, and did not look at Dongfang Jiechen, but went straight into Anhetang.

"Go home!" Dongfang Jiechen and his party rode away.

"Boss, I want the medicine to die in three days. Murong Qingxue said directly as soon as she entered the door of An He Hall. The man who was settling the account looked up and looked at the woman. Coarse linen, looking cold, even if the flower looks like the moon but no money is still not good.

"Girl, do you know how much this antidote costs?" The boss was an old man over half a hundred years old, with a goatee and a pair of shrewd eyes looking at Murong Qingxue. It can be seen from her dress that she is from an ordinary background, so she is not treated with a good face.

Murong Qingxue had long been accustomed to the worship of the General's Mansion, so he didn't care about this boss. threw out five hundred taels of silver tickets and looked at the boss: "Is five hundred taels of silver enough?"

The boss's eyes lit up immediately, but he still couldn't believe it, he immediately put down the abacus and bills in his hand, and hurriedly took the silver ticket for identification, Murong Qingxue looked at the boss's expression, it was really enough, but he was under the eaves, so he had to bow his head, so he sat on the side and waited.

"Boss, have you finished appraising? Could it be that the silver ticket of the Dust King's Mansion is still fake?" When the boss heard the words "Dust King's Mansion", there was a shocked expression in his eyes, and he said in his heart, could it be that this girl is from the Dust King's Mansion? Although they have never seen this dust king, they have heard that he is a moody and murderous person who does not blink an eye, and if anyone provokes him, it will be difficult to live. If this girl was not from the Dust King's Mansion, how dare she say that.

At the moment, he changed his flattering face, and personally poured a cup of tea for Murong Qingxue: "Girl, isn't that saying this in the cold and old? The medicine that the girl asked for will be served immediately, please wait for a while." ”

Murong Qingxue was very disgusted with the boss's face, so she said "um", and did not forget to add: "Hurry up!"

The boss agreed again and again, and the speed in his hands also increased.

Sure enough, after a while, the boss wrapped the medicine and handed it to Murong Qingxue: "Girl, this medicine will die in three days, and the poisoned person will die in three days, so the antidote should also be taken in three times." Our medicine in Anhetang is well-known far and wide, and Tong Su is not bullied, as long as it is not on the third day, the medicine will definitely be cured. ”

Although the boss has no shortage of boastful elements, but hearing this, Murong Qingxue's heart is still a lot more relieved, and after thanking the boss, Murong Qingxue took it and wanted to go back to the general's mansion quickly.

The door was pushed open, and Xinyun saw that Miss was coming back, still holding a pack of medicine, and immediately smiled: "Miss, you are really capable, you came back so soon." ”

Murong Qingxue pinched her face and said to Xinyun: "Xinyun, there are three medicines here, they must be decocted in three times, and after taking the medicine three times, Madame will be fine." Xinyun nodded again and again, and went to decoction with a relaxed pace.

Sure enough, as the pharmacy owner said, after taking the medicine three times, Liu Yanran opened her eyes.

Seeing Murong Qingxue guarding the bed, Liu Yanran's eyes were full of love. "Qingxue, you're back. Listening to Liu's words, Murong Qingxue had mixed feelings in her heart. Yes, mother, I'm back. In my previous life, I failed to protect you, and in this life, I will not let anyone bully you. Murong Qingxue didn't say these words, but just lay down in front of Liu Yanran's bed gently: "Mother, Qingxue is back." My mother is fine, and she will be fine in the future. ”

Liu sighed slightly, her daughter was sensible, but the general's mansion was worrying when she thought about it. I was not favored in the first place, and now it is even more difficult to protect myself.

Murong Qingxue looked at Liu's eyes and understood what she was thinking, so he held her hand tightly to reassure her. Liu also clenched her hand, and neither mother nor daughter spoke, after all, the tranquility at this moment was what they had been asking for.

"Mother. Murong Qingxue raised her head and looked at the Liu family. Liu Shi said "um". "Did the eldest lady hurt you?" asked Murong Qingxue. Although she knew about her mother's poisoning in her previous life, she didn't know the details of the poisoning, and she only suspected that it was the eldest lady Jiang's hand, but at that time Liu was dead, and she couldn't be sure.

Liu didn't speak, she was afraid that her daughter would avenge her after she said it, and if she couldn't hurt Jiang and hurt her daughter, it would be her lifelong regret. Looking at the Liu family's expression, Murong Qingxue had already guessed it, no wonder the Jiang family would be so kind in the previous life, and led Murong Bai and the doctor over three days later. In that case, don't blame her for being ruthless.

"Mother, don't go out for the past two days, since they want to harm you, then make it look like you are poisoned, your daughter will fight back, and you won't let your mother suffer in vain. The Liu clan wanted to stop it, but seeing Murong Qingxue's determined expression, he expected that she must be completely prepared, otherwise she would not have decided like this, so she had to nod.

In the next two days, Murong Qingxue, Xinyun and Liu were all in the Snow Garden, not going out, but happy. Although the supply of the General's Mansion was a very low-class meal, there were still 500 taels of silver left from Dongfang Jiechen, which was enough for the daily expenses of the three of them. Thinking of this, Murong Qingxue's heart was full of pride.

"Qingxue, what are you laughing at?" Liu couldn't help but ask when he saw his daughter smiling so happily.

Murong Qingxue blinked, and still don't sue SΓΉ Niang. After all, the reputation of this Oriental Peerless Dust is not very good, and the killing decisions are as they please, which is exactly the same as his two elder brothers. If you sue your mother and let her worry about it again, it won't be good. Then he returned: "I just thought of something very happy, and I smiled unconsciously." ”

Liu touched her hair lovingly, and said with a little sadness: "If my mother has status, maybe my Qingxue can now pick a good family for you like Qingyi." ”

Murong Qingxue said with a smile: "Mother, isn't the eldest sister undecided? Moreover, it is not necessarily good to look good, don't worry about your daughter's affairs. ”
