Chapter 187: The sinister white old fox
As soon as He Meng's rope was untied, he quickly took off the rag in his mouth, and went to protect He Laofu, staring at Qin Nianbai fearfully and fiercely, shouting: "Qin Nianbai, don't want to hurt Lao Tzu again, if something happens to Lao Tzu, you can't finish eating and walking!" ”
"Big brother, I know you're stupid, I didn't expect you to be stupider than a pig, if I really want to kill you, why bother to lock you up here, just ask someone to stab you in the neck, won't it save trouble?" Qin Nianbai said with a smile.
He Meng stepped back in fear, touched his neck, and pointed at Qin Nianbai, "Then what do you want to do by keeping me here?" ”
Old Madam He was also scared with tears in her eyes, gritted her teeth and said: "The second child has already cut off relations with us, and we haven't messed with you, why are you so ghostly, do you have to pester our He family, let us die with you before you are willing?" ”
"Sure enough, what kind of mother teaches what kind of son, I think you are He Yan's elder, and I have something to say!" Qin Nianbai said slowly: "I recently heard a clever incident, saying that with my eldest brother and mother, Dr. Xu of the Holy Hand Hall originally had an apprentice who had bad rules and sold a deadly poison to the guests without permission and was driven out, the poison was developed by himself, and there is no antidote, I heard that he came to the capital in the past few days, and he also became a doorman in the mansion of Lord Zhang Shunzhang!" ”
Qin Nianbai observed He Meng's face as he spoke, and sure enough, at the mention of this poison, He Meng trembled slightly with fear, and his face was full of sweat!
She sighed regretfully, "What is in the arms of the eldest brother?" I should know better than me, Zhang Shun just let you poison it, and let you eat it yourself, you said that you sold your life for nothing, what benefit can you get? ”
He Meng was already unable to speak in a panic, his eyes turned left and right, thinking about Qin Nianbai's words repeatedly, and he was afraid for a while in his heart, this Lord Zhang was originally going to let him die!
"Don't talk nonsense in front of Lao Tzu, I haven't met Master Zhang, how to get poison from him!" He Meng said stiffly.
"I'll tell my eldest brother about a little thing again, a little guy who was serving in the study of Lord Zhang in Zhang's Mansion was kicked out of the house, and he was met by the second master Kun in my house, and the words have come to this, doesn't the eldest brother admit it? If you want to kill yourself, I won't stop you, but after you die, what should you do, and you won't be taken away by Lord Zhang? ”
Qin Nianbai's calm voice was like a soft knife cutting the sharp flesh of He Meng's heart!
He had dealt with Zhang Shun, so he naturally knew what Zhang Shun was like, and he was just forced to obey because of his threat.
Before He Meng could express his position, Old Madam He hurriedly pulled him, tears flowing, "Son, you can't do stupid things, if you have three long and two short, I won't survive, hurry up and take out the poison!" ”
"Mother, don't believe this slut, she's scheming!" He Meng comforted Mrs. He and said.
Qin Nianbai put down the teacup in his hand with a smile, stood up and straightened his clothes, "If the eldest brother wants to die, please take care of himself!" As he spoke, he was about to go out.
He Meng was entangled in his heart, Qin Nianbai's words must be unbelievable, Zhang Shun is not a good person, and now he is in a dilemma, so he has to see what Qin Nianbai has first.
"Wait, just when what you're saying is true, you say, what should I do?"
He Mengyu hesitated to stop Qin Nianbai.
"I know that my eldest brother's mother doesn't believe me in my heart, and Dr. Xu is also in the house, so I will arrange for him to meet with my eldest brother and my mother in a while, and by the way, I will check whether the poison in the bottle in my eldest brother's arms is from his apprentice!" Qin Nianbai said with satisfaction.
The moment He Meng stopped her, she knew that she could go in this dangerous move!
"Okay, go and get someone!" He Meng seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and sat down and said.
Qin Nianbai nodded, but still let people look at their mother and son, and walked towards the banquet in the front yard.
The food in the kitchen is already prepared in the morning, and it is all heated in the pot.
The kitchen steward was waiting for Qin Nianbai to send in the garden at the intersection of the front yard and the kitchen.
"You tell people that it's time to serve food, and tell them all to line up one by one!" Qin Nianbai commanded, and the kitchen manager nodded and went down.
After a while, the dishes had already been brought up one by one, Qin Nianbai thought like before, let the doctor check them one by one, and then show them to everyone.
At this time, the kitchen steward ran over and said in a panic: "Madam, it's not good, I don't know if it's that damn minion who stole the food you were going to send to the palace!" ”
"What, that's for His Royal Highness the Prince, can you do it in a hurry now?" Qin Nianbai said in a panic.
These words happened to be heard by Bai and Li, and the two of them wanted to look at each other, and their faces showed sinister expressions.
"Marquise, redo it, I'm afraid I'll miss the meal, if you don't dislike it, you can bring two plates of dishes on the old man's table!" General Bai smiled and picked up a plate of dishes on the table and said.
Qin Nianbai smiled knowingly and walked over, "Of course you can!" Suddenly, he became sad again, and began to wipe his tears and said: "The prince is grounded in the East Palace, I'm afraid this meal can't be delivered, thinking that His Royal Highness the prince has also been affected by my husband, and the concubine feels guilty every time she thinks about it!" ”
General Bai seemed to be smiling, "Hey, the old man will let people go home and come to the food box, take my Bai family's food box, I see who dares to stop it!" ”
But no, most of the kilometers are their own people, and without their own orders, no outsiders want to approach His Royal Highness the Prince!
A little woman still dares to play tricks with herself, hum, she can't do it herself!
"Then thank you General Bai!" Qin Nianbai deliberately hesitated for a moment before he blessed his body, and said unnaturally.
General Bai was even happier and immediately asked people to go back to the food box.
Qin Nianbai saw that the time was almost up, so he gave Dr. Xu a look, and Dr. Xu went to the backyard with interest.
The maid who was waiting for him in the backyard told him what Qin Nianbai had explained.
Less than a quarter of an hour after Dr. Xu went to see He Meng's mother and son, He Meng's mother and son took the initiative to come out, followed their subordinates out of the back door, and went around the alley to the front door.
The housekeeper at the door was also explained by Qin Nianbai, and when he saw He Meng's mother and son, he hurried and came over to greet him with a smile.
Mrs. He was led to the women's seat by the maid.
The housekeeper showed He Meng the way, and whispered to him: "Uncle, Mrs. wants to pass on a life-saving word to you: If you want to live, blame Zhang Shun!" ”
When He Meng heard this, his body trembled, although he already knew that Zhang Shun wanted to let him die, but he still didn't dare to act, if Qin Nianbai calculated him again, wouldn't he be blind to death!
And the housekeeper himself led him to Zhang Shun's table, and said with a smile: "Master Zhang, let me introduce you, this is our Uncle He, because of something delayed, you have a vacant place here, can you?" ”
Zhang Shun was about to find He Meng and talk to him about business, but the housekeeper brought someone here, he couldn't ask for it, and hurriedly said: "Come on, come on, Uncle He, please here!" ”
When the housekeeper left, Zhang Shun came over and whispered unpleasantly: "Dog, what are you doing, you only came now, you won't be afraid of death, you want to run!" ”
"How dare the villain run, but he forgot to bring that thing and ran home to get it!" He Meng was sweating and said in a bit of a panic.
Zhang Shun was nervous when he was about to start, patted him on the shoulder, and said coldly: "Just take it, it's almost time, it's time for you to act!" ”
"This, big man, can I not eat it, just go straight to it!" He Meng stammered, Qin Nianbai and Zhang Shun, he really can't do it, as long as Zhang Shun doesn't let him eat this poison, he can go down.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Shun glared and said viciously: "You kid retreated, believe it or not, Lao Tzu killed you!" If you don't do it today, you can do it, otherwise Lao Tzu will expose you now and accuse you of a capital crime of murdering an official of the imperial court! ”
He Meng was frightened, in addition to fear and anger in his eyes, Zhang Shun had already driven him to a dead end.
"The villain obeys!" He said tremblingly.
Zhang Shun nodded with satisfaction, his eyes rolled, and he approached Zhang Shun and said: "Lord Zhang, you said that the matter is to ensure a small promotion and make a fortune, don't forget!" ”
"Well, what did the official say, don't worry, the official will never break his word!" Zhang Shun said firmly.
And He Meng also put the small medicine bottle into his pocket when Zhang Shun was proud!
He glanced at Zhang Shun cruelly, you eat meat, but you don't even leave a bone, you still want Lao Tzu's life!
On the other side, the servants of the Bai family had already brought the food box.
Qin Nianbai asked people to put a few dishes on General Bai's table into it, and asked Xiaoqing, the personal maid, to send them in person.
Seeing that the people sent the food away, Qin Nianbai frowned, General Bai was in a good mood, and asked with a smile: "Marquise, why don't you take the little marquis out, let's see?" ”
"The little marquis is unwell, and the nurse and the doctor are taking care of it, which is really inconvenient!" Qin Nianbai replied with a smile.
"The medical skills of the doctor in my Bai Mansion are better than the imperial doctor in the palace, I will let people bring the doctor to the little marquis now, and I will ensure that the little marquis is alive!"
After General Bai finished speaking, he didn't give Qin Nianbai any chance to refuse, and directly beckoned people to go back and invite.
Qin Nianbai blessed his body, his face was calm, but his tone was sharp, "Thank you General Bai for your kindness, my son has just come out of confinement, and it is really not appropriate to have more contact with outsiders, I am afraid that your doctor will call you and you will not be able to see a doctor!" ”
These words did not make General Bai angry on the spot, but the people around him were startled, the marquise is openly calling General Bai, I am afraid that it will be difficult in the future!
"Haha, it's the old man who is amorous, then let the doctor live in the Yonghou Mansion, and wait for the little marquis to see people, and then give him a good look!" General Bai said with a smile.
Qin Nianbai's face was still calm, but waves began to surge in his heart, the old white fox was really cunning, and he restrained himself in three or two sentences! It seems that I will follow him directly first, and then make plans later!
"Then thank you General Bai!" She was blessed again.
General Bai was even more happy, took off a piece of jade pendant from his waist, and gave it to Qin Nianbai, "This is a piece of beautiful jade that the old man got by accident, compared to those gold and silver jewelry, this jade is more compatible with the little marquis, Madame will accept it if she doesn't dislike it!" ”
