The next day, Tan Zhiting took Mu Zhu to drive to the hot spring palace in the suburbs of Beijing. Tan Zhiting personally went to greet Concubine Shu and report yesterday's incident, while Mu Zhu sneaked to the hot spring pool to net butterflies near the hot spring pool.

After listening to Tan Zhiting's report, Li Jingxi pondered for a while, and then sent Mo Xun to arrange a place for Tan Zhiting. I am afraid that the key to the palace gate has been lost when I rushed back to the palace gate today, so I simply asked her to stay for one night.

"Liuli, you go down the mountain to send a letter to Tiger Stripes, saying that there are guests coming to the palace, and you can't go to the prince's appointment tomorrow." Graceful put away a set of light green palace maid clothes with regret.

Since she had avoided the palace, she had moved much more freely than in the palace. Recently, they often pretend to be palace maids and go down the mountain to have private meetings with Duan Yuhua, but they still maintain a relationship of "affection and courtesy". Duan Yuhua will take her in disguise to a small town not far from the capital; will accompany her to various scenic places in the suburbs of Beijing for a walk; Sometimes, he would hunt game and cook it for her to enjoy...... As long as you are with your beloved, you will be happy no matter what you do. Li Jingxi even felt that this month or so was the happiest time in her life!

Mu Zhu caught butterflies next to the hot spring for an afternoon and harvested a lot. There are already quite a few butterflies in the jar, as well as a few dragonflies. But it doesn't matter if the appearance and type are different, as long as it can be used, even if the gray moth is her, she doesn't mind catching a few.

Mu Zhu carefully wrapped the jar and hugged it tightly in his arms and returned to his residence.

"How? Did you catch it? Tan Zhiting couldn't wait to grab the jar and check it out.

"Little master, rest assured, the harvest is considerable! With these little things, we don't have to worry about our big plans! Mu Zhu encouraged.

"I really want to go back to the palace as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night. Tomorrow morning, we will go to say goodbye to Concubine Shu, go back early, and end this matter early! Tan Zhiting can't wait to appreciate Diejun's tragic end. Tan Zhiting turned around and grabbed Mu Zhu sharply, and asked, "Did you get the medicine you said?" ”

Mu Zhu told her that there was such a poison, which would not attack immediately when it came into contact with human skin, and would only cause the skin to become red and ulcerated after a period of incubation, and the symptoms would look like severe allergies. Although not lethal, the wound can leave a permanent scar after healing. That is, if you get this poison, it will eventually lead to disfigurement. What she wants is to ruin Diejun's bewitching face!

Mu Zhu nodded, and Tan Zhiting returned the jar to Mu Zhu with confidence: "Great, everything is ready!" What is the incubation period of this poison? "She wants it a little longer so she can get rid of suspicion completely.

"It ranges from about ten days to half a month, and the incubation period is still very long, so the little master can rest assured." Mu Zhu knew what Tan Zhiting was worried about as soon as she guessed.

"Well, after the matter is done, I will cut off all contact with Cai Diexuan for half a month. In this way, I will not be suspected at the time of the incident. What a seamless strategy! Muzhu, you're so smart! With you by the side of this little master, you don't have to worry about the day when you don't have the glory of promotion! "Muzhu proposed to poison the butterfly because the butterfly would fly away afterwards. In this way, the evidence is naturally eliminated. Unlike Tan Zhiting's original method of directly poisoning the flowers, not only the scope of the impact is large, but the possibility of leaving evidence is also high. In contrast, the original strategy was obviously full of loopholes, and she had to admire Mu Zhu's subtlety.

The stupid Tan Zhiting is still grateful to God for giving her a resourceful maid, but she doesn't know that she has been betrayed behind her back.

Early the next morning, Tan Zhiting went to quit Concubine Shu and hurried back to the palace. They spent a few more days carefully observing and figuring out the time and habits of Diejun tending to flowers and plants. On this day, Tan Zhiting finally decided to do it!

Last night, she watched Mu Zhu carefully sprinkle poisonous powder on the butterfly's wings, and her heart beat like a drum, after all, this was the first time she had harmed someone. She wanted to be alone, so she let Mu Zhu, who had prepared everything, retreat. When she was alone, she couldn't help but recall her former good sister Wen Zhiqiong.

I think they were also innocent and pretty girls at the beginning, and they didn't understand anything when they first arrived in the palace, and they weren't afraid of anything. Until that day, she and Wen Zhiqiong were insulted by Huan Yue and punished by Fang Yanshan, the kind of unwillingness and anger that was accumulated in her chest made her uncomfortable and crazy every time she thought about it! From that day on, she wondered if she could be a little "bad" too. At least stop being a "kind" person? Just as she was tossing and turning, and heaven and man were fighting, the news of Wen Zhiqiong's death in horror came. At that moment, her inner world finally collapsed completely......

Wen Zhiqiong, that is Tan Zhiting's only friend who can talk to in the lonely deep palace! In the whole turmoil, she is the most innocent, and the price she can pay is also the greatest. This ruthless harem finally took away Tan Zhiting's last trace of comfort. From now on, in addition to status, power, glory and grace, what else is worth fighting for?

yes, what else is there to be afraid of? Didn't you already make up your mind to be a "bad guy"?

Before making a move, she confirmed to Mu Zhu again: "Are you sure that it will only be disfigured and will not endanger your life?" "It seems that she is not completely bad enough after all.

This poison was still obtained from Xiao Hang, but this time it was not Mu Zhu who came forward in person. Because if Xiao Hang knew that she was going to harm people again, he would never give her medicine. Therefore, she asked Zhou Mulin for a favor - let Zhou Mulin threaten her life, Xiao Hang would not bear to see her die without saving her, so she would definitely obediently hand over the poison to Zhou Mulin.

"The little lord is relieved. You didn't sleep all night last night, and you should be tired now. You can take a nap while waiting for the good news from the slave! Under Mu Zhu's assurance, Tan Zhiting slowly calmed down. Mu Zhu went to pick butterflies alone to release butterflies, so she desperately fought against sleepiness and waited anxiously......

"Little master? Little Lord, wake up! Mu Zhu gently pushed Tan Zhiting, who was restless on the beauty couch.

"It's not me! Stay back! Ahh

"Little master, it's a slave, Mu Zhu." Mu Zhu helped the dazed Tan Zhiting up and walked towards the bed: "Why did the little master sleep here?" It's getting late, so help you to bed. ”

Tan Zhiting looked at the sky outside the window, as if night had fallen. Surprised, she asked a barrage of questions: "Is it all dark?" How long have I been asleep? When did you get back? Everything is done? ”

"Everything is done, but the slave met Zhou Cairen on the way back. She asked the slave where she was going, and the slave was afraid that she would find out about our plan, so she made up a reason. I never thought that I would still be pestered by her! In order to perfunctory her, the slave maid went to Dengyu Pavilion with her, so she just came back. As soon as I came back, I saw the little master sleeping on the beauty couch, and the little master had probably slept for three or four hours. Mu Zhu answered one by one in an orderly manner.

"Zhou Cairen didn't suspect anything, right?" When Tan Zhiting heard that Mu Zhu was bumped into by Zhou Mulin, she was so nervous that she couldn't sleep at all.

"Don't worry, the slaves and maids have all coped with it." Mu Zhu helped Tan Zhiting lean on the bed, and was about to cover her with a quilt, but Tan Zhiting waved her hand to signal that she didn't need to.

"Alright, you go down. I also want to be alone today. Tan Zhiting, who finally took this step, was in turmoil at this time, and she needed to calm down alone.

Mu Zhu's jaw retreated, cleverly hiding the cold light in his eyes.

Chuzhou Lufu. Backyard garden.

A young woman dressed in a red plum blossom brocade dress sits in the Phoenix Pavilion in the middle of the garden, plucking a lyre with grace and fluency like a cloud, and the exquisite string sounds pouring out of her fingertips. The pavilion is surrounded by a bamboo curtain of Xiangfei as a partition, faintly reflecting the woman's curling fairy posture. Therefore, the periphery does not see anyone and only hears the sound of the piano, and the end is the mysterious and alluring of "holding the pipa and half covering the face".

Lu Wensheng and his senior brother Shen Zhong stood outside the pavilion, admiring the sound of heaven.

"Wen Sheng, if there is no accident, the holy driver will arrive in Chuzhou in about a month. It was supposed to be Governor Ding's reception, but as you know, Lord Ding broke his leg when he went out hunting half a month ago. This is your chance! Shen Zhong stroked his goatee, his face unfathomable.

"I understand what Senior Brother means, but ......" Lu Wensheng knew that Shen Zhong wanted him to take over the beauty of entertaining the emperor, but his official position was low, so it shouldn't be his turn to say anything.

"Brother knows your concerns. Although you are only a fourth-grade official, you have a geographical advantage that others can't compare! Where is your new home? Shen Zhong gave him a wake-up call.

Lu Wensheng suddenly slapped his hands: "That's right!" How did I forget this! Great, that should be fine. "Lu Wensheng has a property that happens to be on the street adjacent to the old palace.

This palace was built in the first year of the Qingyuan Dynasty of the Huai Dynasty, and it was used for the southern tour of the Qingyuan Emperor. It's a pity that until the death of Emperor Qingyuan, this gorgeous palace did not come in handy; The subsequent Jiakang period also disappeared in the torrent of history with the fall of the Great Huai Dynasty, and the palace was inevitably useless. Over time, the palace gradually fell into ruin.

Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, neither emperor has toured the south, and this is the first time. However, this time, the old palace left by the Huai Dynasty finally came into play. As long as it is thoroughly cleaned and renovated, it is absolutely no different from a new one.

Once the problem of the place of settlement is solved, nothing else is a problem. Lu Wensheng has the opportunity to entertain the royal family, what a glorious thing it will be!

"Thank you for the mention, and the junior brother will go and prepare." Lu Wensheng is going to step up, and he only has a month to prepare.

"Wait! I haven't finished my brother's words. Shen Zhong stopped Lu Wensheng, pointed in the direction of the Fengxian Pavilion, and asked, "I don't know which virtuous niece the person in the pavilion is?" ”

Lu Wensheng has three daughters, the eldest daughter Lu Huizhen, her face is like peach blossoms and willows, and at the age of 22, her demeanor is not inferior to that of a twenty-eight girl. At the age of seventeen, he married Sun Sen, a son of a family who was married to him, and Sun Sen was terminally ill at that time, and marrying Lu Haozhen was completely for Chongxi. However, the Lu family, who was unwilling to break the marriage contract, reluctantly sent their eldest daughter over. Three months after the marriage, Sun Sen died. The in-laws are not mean people, and after three years of filial piety, Lu Xizhen was allowed to remarry. On the day of returning home, the peach blossoms in the middle of the road suddenly bloomed, and Zhan Zhen firmly believed that this was Sen Lang's reluctance, so he no longer married, and has been widowed until now. The people of Chuzhou admired Lu Zhenzhen's beauty and loyalty, and called her "Mrs. Peach Blossom";

The second daughter, Lu Yangqing, has a cherry blossom in the ice muscle race and a snow lip, and is a famous flower at the age of eighteen. This winter, he will marry Lin Ze, the second son of the Chuzhou co-leader. Lu Yangqing has a soft personality on the outside and a strong on the inside, with a soft side of her daughter, and a passionate passion that does not let her eyebrows go;

The youngest daughter, Lu Yanwan, is pink, smart and cute, and is not yet eight years old. At a young age, he is empathetic, and he is the intimate padded jacket of his parents and the pearl of the whole family.

"This is the second daughter." Lu Wensheng knew as soon as he heard the sound of the piano.

"Can you marry someone?" The person who can play such a wonderful sound must also be ingenious and good-looking.

"I'm going to get married this winter." Lu Wensheng looked at his senior brother suspiciously, not knowing what he meant.

"Alas, it's a pity ......" Shen Zhong shook his head regretfully and walked out of the garden with his hands behind his back.
