Lao He didn't understand, except for going to Yongzhou to take up a post, Yang Qi spent most of his time in Yang's mansion, when did he get in touch with the party members?
Since entering this manor, Lao He has secretly checked it.
Almost all the people in this manor are party members, and judging from the party members who escorted them just now, the identities of these party members are obviously not ordinary.
Lao He wanted to chase Yang Qi and ask carefully, but seeing that Yang Qi didn't seem to want to explain more, he could only give up.
Yang Qi sat on the couch and closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, Lao He didn't dare to move, and sat down not far from Yang Qi.
After a while, I saw that the door of the lobby was wide open, and a team of party women with curtains slowly entered the hall with melons, fruits and dishes in their hands.
The women didn't speak, but left the lobby after putting down their things.
Among the many dishes, the main dish of roasted lamb stands out.
Yang Qi was also hungry, picked up the knife on the table to cut the mutton, and began to knife the roast lamb without hesitation.
"Seventh Master!"
Lao He hurriedly intervened to stop it.
Yang Qi waved his hand and said, "It's not poisonous, don't worry about eating it boldly." β
Lao He shook his head resolutely, "Let's let my subordinates give it a try." β
Lao He pulled out a hairpin made of sterling silver from his arms and tested the poison on the roast lamb.
Yang Qi looked at it and laughed secretly.
A hairpin made of sterling silver can only test the poison of arsenic.
In ancient times, the most commonly used and readily available poison was arsenic.
Therefore, many people regard silver as a holy product for testing drugs.
Yang Qiming knew that the hairpin made of sterling silver was useless, but it was useless to stop Lao He.
Lao He was carrying out She Saihua's order, and Yang Qi was not easy to strip him of his kindness.
The sterling silver hairpin pierced into the roast lamb, and when it was pulled out, it was still shiny.
Lao He put away the hairpin and said to Yang Qi very reassuringly: "Seventh Master, you can eat." β
Yang Qi cut a piece of golden lamb meat with a knife and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and his brows gradually wrinkled.
The smell of mutton and spice powder are mixed together, and the strange flavor is really hard to swallow.
After eating only one slice, Yang Qi put down the knife.
The ancients seemed to have a soft spot for spices, and they seemed to think that the standard for judging food was the number of spices.
These roast lambs are obviously more in line with the appetite of Lao He.
One by one, they ate without any image, chewing vigorously, as if they were eating delicacies from the mountains and seas.
Yang Qi picked up the horn cup on the table, took a sip of mare's milk wine, and frowned even deeper.
Yang Qi was not picky about food, but it was difficult for him to accept this kind of mare's milk wine full of peculiar smell for a while.
As a traditional Central Plains man, he needs time to accept the strange taste of any exotic food.
It's like a person who is used to eating sweets and suddenly has to adapt to this salty food.
A large table full of food, Yang Qi could only eat, only a plate of a few fruits.
A plate of fruit, Yang Qisan ate it all in two clicks.
At this time, a party woman came in from outside the door, and Ying Ying walked up to him and changed a table of food for him.
A table of food that can only be eaten in Bianjing, in addition, there is also a pot of soju produced by the Yang Family Distillery.
"Wait a minute."
The party woman was about to leave after changing the food, but was stopped by Yang Qi.
The party woman bowed slightly, made a unique etiquette for the Han people, and said softly: "What else do you have to order?" β
Yang Qi sighed and said, "Ask the person in charge behind you to come out, I don't have any extra time to spend here with you." β
The party woman smiled lightly and said, "The nobles only have to eat, and when the nobles run out of meals, our principal will naturally come out." β
Yang Qi stood up abruptly and glanced coldly at the party woman.
"For the sake of her sending me the letter before, I let you bring me here. But my patience was limited, and if she didn't show up within a quarter of an hour, I would leave. β
A warm anger flashed on the face of the party woman, and she shouted: "This Zhuangzi is full of our people inside and out, do you think that just a few of you can break out?" β
Lao He and the others obviously felt that the atmosphere was not right, and one by one they threw down the food in their hands and stood up with a vigilant expression.
Yang Qi narrowed his eyes and sneered, "You can try it and see if you can stop me." β
"Humph!"
The party woman snorted coldly, turned around and walked out of the lobby.
A quarter of an hour later, after a strange sound of bells and drums, the middle door of the lobby opened.
Two teams of party women dressed in red and with curtains on their faces shook the pigtails on their heads and jumped into the lobby.
Lao He subconsciously bowed to Yang Qi's side.
Yang Qi was unmoved, staring at these people coldly.
After the women in red entered the lobby, they fell to their knees on the ground, their bodies prostrate on the ground, and gave a big salute.
This is?
Someone important to arrive?
Immediately afterwards, Yang Qi and the others smelled a faint fragrance of flowers, a little peony flower, and a little orchid.
At the entrance of the lobby, what caught my eye was a big red dress, red like blood, embroidered with a golden peony.
A woman with a golden crown with a phoenix about to fly.
The golden crown was dazzling in the sun, as if forming a halo like Buddha's light behind the woman's head.
The woman's face is covered with a curtain, and her eyes are full of brilliance, seizing people's souls.
She gives people the feeling of being like a god walking in the mortal world, sacred and inviolable.
The warriors guarding her are like the Yellow Turban wrestlers in the Heavenly Palace.
The women carrying her skirts were also dressed up like fairies in the heavenly palace.
As if he had been bewitched by her, he stared at her one by one, without blinking his eyes.
"Humph!"
The only one in the field who was awake was Yang Qi.
Yang Qi snorted coldly and said coldly: "Pretend to be a ghost." β
The warriors and maids who were guarding her side all glared angrily at Yang Qi.
It seemed that he wanted to devour Yang Qisheng alive.
The woman in a big red dress arrived in the middle of the lobby, flicked her long sleeves, and turned to stand facing south.
Party members in the place worship together.
"See the Holy Maiden!"
"Up!"
Her voice was gentle and peaceful, but it seemed to be full of supreme majesty, which made people have to be convinced.
"Go down first!"
She waved her hand, and everyone around her quietly exited the hall.
Yang Qi also waved his hand, "Lao He, you take them out first and wait outside." β
Old He Shengsheng pulled his eyes out of this mysterious saint and asked solemnly, "Will there be danger?" β
Yang Qi shook his head.
Lao He led everyone and reluctantly walked out of the door.
Everyone's eyes were on this mysterious saint.
The primitive curiosity of mankind prompted them to want to lift the curtain of this holy woman.
