Chapter 257: Beauty is Poisonous
Many things are delayed for a long time but are unresolved, not because of difficulties, but because the person doing the work is in a bad mood and is too lazy to move.
Zhou Manyun sat on the main seat of the small flower hall with a straight face, watching the beauties who were summoning batches of beauties to ask for peace pass by like a marquee, and secretly rejoiced in his heart.
The Xiao family has been away from Beijing for a long time, and before, whether it was the Guogong Mansion in the city or the Golden Harvest Garden in the western suburbs, they were just left with a bunch of old, weak, sick and disabled guards. So in this initial period of time, the various prefectures that sent people to show their closeness sent beautiful women who were not of high birth with their eyes, and they didn't want Xiao Ze to give any name, but only said that they were concubines, and even the maids who swept the couch and washed their feet and waited for the change of clothes.
Therefore, although the beauties of the dry are also ring, fat, swallow and thin, each with different charms and styles, they still have a strict training of safety and self-defense. If you replace those with a bit of identity and personality that you have encountered in your previous life, your current self may have been squeezed and eager to grab the land with your head.
The morning dew blossoms drizzle late, the beauties come and go, and there is a hard-working person in the flower hall who still has to work hard to hand in the answer...... Man Yun stretched out his fingers and rubbed the corners of his aching forehead, and let out a long sigh.
Lustful men are unreasonable, and the housewife who has the leisure to help men take care of the backyard is a god, fortunately, now it is only barely helping others, if Xiao Hong dares to use this trick to annoy her in this life, a handful of poison is poured directly into him, so that the world is clean is the best choice.
The list on the table was split from one to two. One has twenty or thirty people densely packed on it, while the other has only four people.
After carefully reading the transcribed list again, and confirming that the real person and the name were not right or wrong in the slightest, Man Yun carefully folded the two pages of the ink that had dried and tucked them into his sleeve, and slowly stood up.
Seeing this, Mrs. Cai, who was standing aside, immediately came over, and said with a smile on her fat black face: "Sixth grandmother! Shizi just sent someone to say that if you choose a good person, go directly to his study and reply. ”
Zhou Manyun nodded at the old woman kindly.
The younger brother and daughter-in-law helped the eldest brother to pick up the maidservants who were waiting around him. also went to report and meet each other alone, and the old lady who talked about the rules in the famous family must be able to reach out to stop her. It's just that Mrs. Cai, who is now following Man Yun, was originally just the best among the old women who stayed in Jingguo Mansion to guard the door and sweep the courtyard, and Man Yun had to be helped by someone in the mansion to order her, but she was loyal and obedient. It also saves the trouble of unnecessary deafness......
"In the future, the people you and Xiaoliu will serve around you, won't you just be like Mother Cai?" , Xiao Ze looked Man Yun up and down, pushed the paper full of names on the table three inches in her direction, and said in a deep voice: "I remember that I explained to you that I said that it would be good to pick out two women who are suitable and do not violate the face of the gift giver, and now all the people are piled here...... You can take them all back to Xiaoliu! ”
"Shizi! The list is all quite clean, and they have their own merits, so the prince can order whoever the name is pleasing to the eye! Two or three don't matter! There are always some people who are forced to feel like bustards, and Man Yun secretly gritted his silver teeth. took out another list of only a few people and put it on the table, bent his fingers tapped lightly, and said, "And these people with medicinal gas on their bodies, you just try not to touch them!" I can't say, use it early and die early! ”
"Hmmm! Not stupid...... These ones, I will let people go to their original details. ”
"In fact, these women who say they are clean can't keep what is behind them! Maybe the scheming is heavier, and the drugs are hidden more tightly, but I can't see it for a while! ”
Syllable! The man slammed his palms against the table. Suddenly calmed Zhou Manyun, who was answering, and watched Xiao Ze raise his hand and sweep all the books on the table to the ground angrily.
The table was empty. Xiao Ze sighed, leaned back in the chair, and closed his eyes slightly. The sarcasm on the corners of the woman's eyes and eyebrows just now, he could see it clearly, and he could also see that there was a bunch of inexplicable nameless fires in his heart, and he couldn't control his attitude for a while. Now I can only ask for a blind and out of mind.
"The prince knows that it is extremely risky to use beauties at this time, so why bother to pick someone to do a show? The beauty is poisonous, and the hero died at the hands of a weak woman in the end, but it has really become a big joke in the annals of history! Isn't it okay to get rid of them all and keep your surroundings cleaner? ”。 Man Yun stared at his toes and muttered, not loud or small, just as he could get into Xiao Ze's ears.
"Qingyuan ...... that year", the poisoning of Qingyuan Xiaoliu has actually attracted attention in the Xiao family, and the woman of unknown origin is not sensitive, and Xiao Ze, who has experienced it, has not added a new concubine. No matter how beautiful a beauty is, everyone understands the truth that she has to enjoy her life, but if she doesn't accept this batch of Cheng Cheng tribute now, there may be more to send it later, and there are even people who are staring in the dark in fear, until the woman who accepted his family is Kenna's book......
It's just that such a pale explanation was told to her, and she didn't bother to listen to it at all! And if you tell the truth, it doesn't mean anything at all!
Xiao Shizi, who took a deep breath to stabilize his wandering mind, sneered, and the old god closed his eyes on the ground and spit out vicious words, "Zhou! You detain Xiaoliu to a vegetarian diet because of jealousy, and you still want to force all men in the world to become monks? Look at it, now it's just your newlywed Yan'er honey blending oil, and after a long time, the sixth brother will naturally go to find flowers and meat. In this world, what glutton doesn't want to eat puffer fish desperately? ”
No matter, die! Zhou Manyun, who was holding back the fire in his heart, clenched his fists and had a secret curse in his heart. She had once again warned Xiao Ze, who had died ugly in her previous life, but this man was purely looking for a dead embryo, and the mud couldn't support the wall.
"Beauty is poisonous?" , Xiao Ze suddenly opened his eyes, propped his hands on the table and straightened up, his black eyes stared at Zhou Manyun like flashing sharp light, and said in a dumb voice: "Zhou Manyun!" She has a beautiful appearance, a smart spirit, has practiced medicine and poison since she was a child, and is very good at seducing people's souls...... Honestly, do you have anything to do with that good incense sect? ”
"Nope!" , Zhou Manyun responded categorically and intuitively, and after fully understanding the meaning of Xiao Ze's words, he was even more angry from the bottom of his heart.
"It's good if you don't have it!"
Xiao Ze sat back in his chair with a sigh of relief, and said word by word in a low voice: "Zhou! Regardless of whether you or your master had another purpose for letting you learn poison before, if you can't be the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family in the future, or hurt Xiaoliu...... I'm sure, I'm going to kill you with my own hands! Right now! Hurry up and get back to Xiaoliu for me! ”
Helping people choose beauty has lost its benefits, but it has been suspicious, and it has been threatened to shout and kill!
It's too embarrassing to be yelled at by the inexplicable Xiao Ze and driven out of the study! Stepping out of the small courtyard, Man Yun frowned and frowned, until he was hugged by her husband who came to pick him up, and only then did she reluctantly put a faint smile on her pretty face, which was like being beaten by frost.
Xiaoxuan's window shadows are in pairs. Knock on the chess pieces and drop the lanterns......
Xiao Hong's slender and powerful fingers picked up the chess pieces on the flat one by one, and looked at his wife, who was lying on the other side of the Luohan couch after losing the chess on the opposite side, and sighed, "The eldest brother also told me that going out to the banquet is a chore. I think it's really hard to play with you. Stupid and lazy, it really makes people want to strangle you! ”
"You can't talk well...... Zhou Manyun turned over neatly and sat up. Then he stared blankly at Xiao Hong's handsome face with his fingers twisted.
A chess piece stopped in mid-air, "Zhou Manyun, what's wrong?" ”
"Xiao Hong! You also told me before that you hated me to the bone, and you wanted to break my body into thousands of pieces and file my bones to ashes? She remembered it very clearly, Xiao Hong had said this clearly in her past and present lives.
"I just said, what's the matter! I still want to do it now......", Xiao Hong's big hands pinched directly on Man Yun's slender neck. Staring at her with a childish smile in her eyes.
"Xiao Hong!" , Man Yun raised his hand and grabbed Xiao Hong's arm resting on her shoulder, and said seriously: "I suddenly feel that my eldest brother may accept me now." ”
"See people's hearts over time! Did your husband ask you to take the initiative to help him? What did he say to you today? ”
"He said if I treated you badly, he would kill me! Personally! Zhou Manyun learned Xiao Ze's ruthless look with angry eyebrows at that time, and said with a little certainty: "Xiao Hong! It's not easy for Xiao Shizi to kill people with his own hands, right? If he has a grudge against people's hearts. Either that, or with a look of arrogance and disdain. Either you are polite on the face, but you are yin in secret, and you will not give up until you die. ”
"How can the eldest brother be as ...... as you say", half a sentence came out, and Xiao Hong hesitantly held his tongue first.
"That's it! I now think that you brothers may be like this, and you can't talk properly. Are you afraid that if you soften your words, you will be taken by others? ”。 Man Yun tightened his eyebrows and sighed lightly, "But don't you think that such harsh words will be like when you hear other people's ears?" If you change the fragile ...... It's going to be scared to death. ”
Just like Zhou Manyun in his previous life, there is no way to understand and accept such an expression, and he is often frightened to death by the cruel words he remembers in the middle of the night.
Did that Xiao Hong in his previous life ever love the cowardly and incompetent Zhou Manyun? The stupid question that had already decided not to be entangled in this life unexpectedly came to Zhou Manyun's mind. She whispered and stuck to her husband's arms and looked up.
It's hard for people to know for themselves. Xiao Hong frowned and smacked what Man Yun said, and then said softly: "Man Yun, I have loved learning since I was a child......
The remarks that had just started his thoughts were suddenly blocked in his mouth by his white and tender little hands, and Zhou Manyun glanced at the direction of the porch, and his eyebrows were cold.
Xiao Hong nodded imperceptibly, and stretched out his arms to hug his wife in his arms tighter.
"Sixth Master! The prince has a letter to send it to you! The footsteps that were as light as dust stopped outside the door, and a slightly shrill voice rang out.
Xiao Hong looked down at the sleeve of his shirt that was pulled by his wife, and responded with a smile: "Then you can send it in!" ”
The young man in the guard's uniform answered in a low voice, lifted the curtain and entered the door, bowed his head slightly and held a yellow Cambodian envelope, and walked straight to the Luohan couch under the window.
The lower gaze could see the man's black boots and robes, a loose green skirt sticking to his knees, and pink embroidered shoes dangling in the air in a swaggering color, like a new green and tender red that had just been drawn from the branches of a large tree.
He's still messing around with women!
A trace of disappointment and regret crossed Lu Shou's delicate face, his hands holding the envelope suddenly flipped over, and his slender index finger wiped straight towards Xiao Hong's neck, and there was a little simple turmeric on his fingertips......
"You're moving too slowly!" , The black boots that were originally firmly on the ground next to the couch firmly stepped on Lu Shou's chest.
The right arm with the poisonous armor was firmly clasped in Xiao Hong's hand, and his wrist twisted mercilessly, and Lu Shou's dislocated arm smashed back to his side.
"Originally, Xiao Liugongzi was not useless!", Lu Shou endured the churning blood in his chest, looked at the handsome man in front of him, and showed an expression that seemed to cry and laugh. The stab that rushed up just now missed, but after a few moves, he was put to the ground, which made him re-understand Xiao Hong, who had been disappointed.
"Are you Lu Shou?" , straightened the assassin's face and saw it clearly, Xiao Hong was shocked.
"Does the sixth prince recognize our family?", Lu Shou frowned, full of doubts, and at this moment he suddenly felt that Xiao Hong, who he had never met, was a little ...... Sounds familiar.
On the same day in the Xiakou Palace, he was hit by spider venom beyond recognition, and Lu Zheng gave him a name for his heart, and Lu Shou, who was guarding on the side, did not know his face, but he recognized him. It's just that even if the old man stabs him, he can't be indulgent, Xiao Hong didn't respond, and directly pursed his lips.
"He's not here to assassinate." Xingyan', I think he wants to use poison to get some truth out of you! With a beautiful female voice, Lu Shou found that his fingers with the poison of apricot words were tightly pinched in a fair-skinned tender hand.
"Xia Yunji!" , Suddenly recognized who the woman who was called the name of the drug, Lu Shou's eyes widened in astonishment.
Amethyst, who was secretly regretting it just now, was somehow not cooperating with the attack during the raid, and was shaking her fluffy tail and nesting comfortably in a patch of tender grass green. (To be continued......)
