Chapter 486: Poison
The two carriages drove one after the other towards the foot of Jingshan Mountain.
Since Xiaocui didn't leave Jingshan far, she quickly arrived at Mrs. Cai's mansion.
"Carriage?!" The soldiers patrolling the gate were strange.
"That's Miss Cui's carriage!" Some people can recognize this carriage, Xiao Cui is a celebrity next to Mrs. Cai, and it is much more expensive than those of them who are soldiers, so most of them will not offend Xiao Cui, but rather please her.
"Didn't the sister-in-law go out to buy rouge gouache for her wife!" A soldier asked, confused, looking at the carriage that had gone out behind and now two of them had returned.
"Why are you asking so much!" The other person pushed him, "Hurry up, Miss Xiaocui, the next thing is real!" "The seat of the carriage is still very high, and Xiaocui, a maid, naturally will not arrange for a servant, and she can't jump down directly, so these things that take over the carriage are all done by these soldiers and grooms.
Several soldiers hurriedly stepped forward and helped Xiao Cui down from the carriage, and one of the soldiers asked, "Miss Xiao Cui, why did you come back so quickly!" Didn't you buy rouge gouache for your wife! Behind this is "Xiaocui goes out for Mrs.
"Talkative, I want you to ask more!" Xiao Cui rolled her eyes at this soldier and said, these soldiers have been assigned to Mrs. Cai by Liu Biao for a long time, so naturally they are already familiar with the people above Mrs. Cai's mansion.
Although Xiao Cui blamed on his lips, there was no trace of gloom on his face, and the soldier also nodded, it was okay to ask once, but it would be really annoying to ask too much.
"Where's Madame?!" Xiao Cui stepped out of the carriage and asked the leader of a soldier.
"Madame is still playing chess with that boy in the courtyard!"
"Okay, I got it!" Xiao Cui said and walked towards the mansion.
Behind him, Liu Mang and Jia Xu also got out of the carriage. Jia Xu took the box and was about to follow Liu Mang into the mansion behind Xiaocui. But he was stopped by these guards of the nursing home. It means you can't go in.
"We're with that girl!" Jia Xu stepped forward to explain. But the soldiers remained motionless.
Or Xiaocui turned her head and said to the people on the side, "They are with me, they need to see Madame, let them in!" Then the soldier nodded and said that he was out of the way.
Liu Mang and the others walked directly to the backyard with Xiao Cui, Liu Mang's current identity is just a businessman, even if he can sell the value chain Chen, but a businessman is a businessman who is not worthy of going to the main hall to discuss things.
Liu Mang didn't mind, as long as he could see Mrs. Cai.
After walking for a long time, although the mansion at the foot of Jingshan is not big, it is winding and tortuous, and there are many courtyards. It wasn't until a place that Xiaocui asked Liu Mang and the others to stop.
said to Liu Mang and the others, "You just wait for me here for the time being, and I'll go and inform Madame!" Xiao Cui pointed to the stone table next to a flower bed and said, "You can rest for a while!" ”
"Don't run around so as not to cause misunderstandings!" Xiao Cui added another sentence when she left.
Liu Mang also understood, and sat down with Jia Xu on the edge of the stone table.
"This Liu Biao is not small! For Hongyan, he was able to give up such a mansion! As soon as Jia Xu sat down, he blinked his lips and looked around at Yiqiē, which was a flower garden full of flowers and fish and insects.
There are also a lot of rockeries, and the whole yard can be regarded as full of greenery, you must know that it is now winter, although there is no snow. But the weather is not mild, and there are many flowers in this courtyard that cannot be seen in the land of Jingchu. It's not what it should be in this season, and there are some strange stones that are not made of Jing Chu, so it can be said that the things in this flower garden are worth a thousand gold, not to mention that there is a courtyard over there.
It can be said that although this mansion is small, it is full of organs, and even more than Liu Biao's mansion in Xiangyang, and it is incomparably better, plus it is located under Jingshan Mountain, and it is also a place to cultivate people.
"How rich Jingzhou is, it is naturally willing!" Liu Mang nodded, is Liu Biao extravagant? Of course, extravagance, Liu Mang can see it in Liu Biao's mansion, Liu Biao's use and other aspects are simply luxury, compared to Lao Cao's poverty and letting his subordinates eat human flesh, Liu Biao is simply a rich man, but this does not mean that Liu Biao does not care about the suffering of the people.
It's that Jingzhou is too rich, so he, the owner of Jingzhou, naturally enjoys it the best.
Liu Mang looked at the past, many flowers such as peonies, such as Junzi orchid, Liu Mang waited for Xiaocui here, naturally leisurely, and set his eyes on those flowers and watched them.
"What is this?!" When Liu Mang was observing the flowers, a very bewitching flower appeared in front of Liu Mang.
It has branches 30-60 cm high, and the taproot is nearly conical and vertical. The stems are erect, unbranched, glabrous, and powdery. Leaves alternate, leaves ovate or oblong-ovate, apex acuminate to obtuse, base heart-shaped, margins irregularly wavy serrate, glabrous on both sides, with white powder, leaf veins distinct, slightly protruding; The lower leaves are short-stalked, and the upper leaves are sessile and hold the stem.
"The lord also likes this poppy?!" Jia Xu looked in Liu Mang's direction and asked Liu Mang suspiciously.
"Poppy?!" Liu Mang asked suspiciously.
"Yes, poppy!" Jia Xu explained to Liu Mang that the poppy was named after Xiang Yu's wife Poppy when Chu and Han were fighting, and you can know how delicate it is, because the poppy is beautiful, it is planted in many flower beds, but some people don't like him because it also represents life and death, symbolizing separation, so only those who prefer it will plant.
Looking at the few flowers in the courtyard, it should be that the flower seed accidentally fell into it.
"It's not a poppy, absolutely not!" Liu Mang shook his head, although he didn't know much about flowers, but he knew that it was not a poppy, the buds of poppies were drooping and drooping, and she would not gradually flower upwards until she bloomed, and the whole plant was hairy, and the fruit was small.
"It's a broken intestine grass!" Liu Mang said confirmatively.
"Broken intestine grass?!" Jia Xu was puzzled, how do you think this is also a flower, it has nothing to do with grass. Still disemboweled?
"Huh. This kind of thing is also called a demon flower! Liu Mang explained to Jia Xu. If it is not clear to explain it with the broken intestine grass and the devil flower, then with a very familiar name, then it is the poppy flower.
The buds of the poppy are straight upwards, and when they bloom, they are also upward, and the whole plant is smooth and the fruit is large.
Liu Mang was able to know so much, and that was because the police in the community had taught them lessons, that is, to distinguish poppies. I'm afraid that someone will inadvertently plant it.
"Demon Flower, Broken Intestine Grass?!" Jia Xu was even more puzzled.
"Wenhe, this kind of flower and plant is like a devil, once you get involved, you basically can't do without him!" Drugs came out of poppies in the first place.
"Once you get it, you can't do without it?!" Will it be so terrible, Jia Xu didn't feel anything after watching it for a long time.
"Nature is a medicine extracted from this flower!"
"Isn't that the same as Goshisan!" Jia Xu said a drug that is now inseparable.
Wushisan, also known as cold food and loose medicine, makes people warm all over the body after taking it, and produces a short-term effect that confuses people's hearts, starting from Qin Shi Huang. During the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he believed in Fangshi Li Shaojun, Luan Da, etc., and smelted minerals such as gold and stone. The object is a stone medicine.
This thing is very popular among the Han scholars, because it can satisfy their lust.
As for the kind of physical fitness he said, it's complete nonsense.
"The things made by this flower are only as good as this five-stone scatter!" Wushisan can also quit this thing. But once it is contaminated with this thing, it is basically impossible to get rid of it, and in the modern history of China, it is caused by this thing.
"And it's hard to make five stones, and as long as there is a little bit of land for this thing, it can make it!" Wushisan can only be spread among the scholars, that is because his production is very difficult, and poppies are really simple, as long as a piece of land, an acre of fertile land can produce several kilograms!
"This trip is not worthwhile, this trip is not worthwhile!" Liu Mang looked at this poppy and suddenly laughed, although the poppy is demonized, but you have to know whose hands this thing is used in.
What Liu Mang has always wanted to solve is that the Han scholars, these scholars control the whole world, it can be said that it is not so much the world of the emperor Laozi, but the world of the scholars, and your emperor is just a bigger scholar, once you decline, immediately pull you off the horse.
And if you want to get rid of this group of scholars, you can't force it, the power of that group of scholars is very huge, and now Liu Mang in Jingzhou does not go to Liu Biao but to find the Cai family, this family is too huge, so big that it can already affect the decision-making of the lord of a state.
But Liu Mang needed something to disintegrate these scholars, at least to make them hurt and even control them.
And this poppy flower just opened a door for Liu Mang. It's just that this poppy can't fall into the hands of others.
You imagine that although the poppy is easy to grow, as long as Liu Mang controls the amount of his outflow, then he is as precious as Wushisan, and ordinary people naturally can't afford to eat it, but those scholars can enjoy it, and once you get contaminated with this thing, you just wait to go bankrupt! If the current Jingzhou Liu Biao is addicted to drugs, Liu Mang still needs to travel thousands of miles to Jingzhou! directly accused Liu Biao of the source of drugs, and immediately Liu Biao obediently sent money and food.
Liu Mang kept his emotions silently, he lowered his voice and said to Jia Xu, "Regardless of whether this trip is successful or not, I will definitely get these flowers, and even better with their seeds!" ”
"These flowers!"
"With these flowers, we have opened the gates of hell!" Liu Mang muttered to himself.
……
Xiao Cui had already entered the courtyard where Mrs. Cai and Pang Tong were playing chess, and saw that the two were playing against each other, Xiao Cui stood aside very well and waited until the end of the chess game between the two.
"Madame, I've won again!" Pang Tong smiled silently and said to Mrs. Cai.
"Pang Gongzi is talented, and the concubine body is naturally not comparable!" Mrs. Cai also dropped the chess pieces, he didn't care about winning or losing at all, and playing the chess pieces was boring, because Pang Tong was so competitive, there was no game that he didn't win, so naturally he didn't let Mrs. Cai, what is the point of this kind of losing chess game.
"You've been standing aside for a long time, let's say, what's the matter?!" Mrs. Cai naturally saw Xiao Cui standing aside. She asked Xiaocui to go to Xiangyang to buy rouge gouache. The game is only open when you go. Now that the game is over, this Xiao Cui is back, and there must be something.
"Huh?!" Mrs. Cai sniffed her nose, and a fragrance entered Mrs. Cai's nose, which was a floral smell, but it was different, this fragrance was a little miscellaneous, but it was a little heavier than the real floral fragrance.
And the source of this fragrance is confirmed to have come from the body of this maid of hers. Looking at Xiaocui's face, Mrs. Cai found something again. This little Cui's face? Originally, it was the kind that was blown dry by the wind and could only be covered with rouge gouache, but now the rouge gouache has been washed off on the face, but the face is not dry at all, but there is a kind of roundness, which is still shining under the sun.
Mrs. Cai is very curious, but he is naturally a master who will not ask directly, wait for Xiaocui to report!
"Miss, the rouge gouache has been bought! The effect of using this rouge gouache on the face of the maid you see! Xiao Cui came up and spoke to Mrs. Cai.
This little emerald got closer. Only then did Mrs. Cai realize that not only her face had changed, but also her hair. His hair became black and bright, and as soon as he approached him, a fragrant wind came to his face.
Xiao Cui looked like this, and even Pang Shiyuan, who was on the side, couldn't help but look at it twice.
"And this lip gloss! And this skincare product! Xiao Cui showed what Liu Mang had taught him in front of Mrs. Cai.
"Where did all this rouge gouache come from?!" Mrs. Cai has never seen these things, she is a noble lady, it can be said that she doesn't care about other things in the boudoir, and she is naturally interested in whitening and beauty, but Xiao Cui said it well, Mrs. Cai has never said that she has done it, and she has never even heard of it.
"These are rouge gouaches from the Western Regions!" Xiao Cui said to Mrs. Cai.
"Oh?" It's not that there are no merchants from the Western Regions, and there are merchants from all walks of life in Jingzhou, a place with developed commerce, but it's really the first time that merchants from the Western Regions have brought rouge gouache.
"Everything is made of the essence of flowers and plants and the morning dew in the morning, and the price is very expensive, and it costs dozens of gold for one alone!" Xiaocui also said the price, sometimes a thing does not look at how much effect he has, but how expensive he is, as soon as this price is said, everyone will naturally be dumbfounded by him.
Sure enough, even Pang Tong was curious, how expensive is this rouge gouache in the Western Regions? Dozens of gold, looking at the introduction of this Xiaocui, there are seven or eight kinds, this adds up to more than 100 gold, what kind of rouge gouache is this, so expensive.
"Isn't there enough money?!" Listening to Xiaocui's words, Mrs. Cai was a little itchy, what is the most important thing in a woman's mind, the first is appearance, and the second is clothes, bags, and shoes, so those who sell cosmetics can make so much money.
Men conquered the world, women conquered men, and finally cosmetics and clothes conquered women.
"Go to the treasury and get a hundred gold!" Although there are a lot of gold, it is not much for Mrs. Cai, so looking at the effect on Xiaocui's face, she is naturally moved.
"No, no, no!" Xiao Cui shook her hand.
"Isn't it enough?!" Mrs. Cai asked suspiciously.
"It's not enough!" Xiao Cui explained: "This merchant from the Western Regions who sells rouge gouache has arrived in the mansion! They wanted to see Mrs., saying that they were going to give this rouge gouache to Madame! "Xiaocui made the decision on her own, and asked Liu Mang to send a set to Mrs. Cai, if Liu Mang was unwilling, she would give her own set out.
"You!" Before Mrs. Cai could answer, Pang Tong on the side immediately became angry.
", who asked you to bring people in!" Pang Tong immediately became angry and scolded Xiao Cui is scolding, he was clear that in the past few days, the Cai family's mansion will not be allowed to accept guests, but this Xiao Cui has quietly brought people in, Pang Tong is now a frightened bird, or he has been bitten by a snake for ten years and is afraid of the well rope, and he is careful to strive for perfection in everything he does, such a businessman from the Western Regions was brought into the mansion Pang Tong can not be angry. Speaking of anger, stepping forward was a slap in the face of Xiao Cui.
"Ahhh Xiao Cui was slapped in the face by Pang Tong and fell to the ground, although Pang Tong was a little black and fat, but after all, he was a man, and the strength in his hand was not small, Xiao Cui's face suddenly turned red, and a big slap mark was imprinted on it.
Xiao Cui fell to the ground, and her face showed tears, she didn't know what was going on, and she was suddenly slapped in the face by Pang Tong, as aggrieved as she wanted.
"Presumptuous!" Mrs. Cai's guards on the side also have a good relationship with Miss Xiaocui. Seeing Xiao Cui being beaten. Naturally, he scolded it. The group pulled out their swords, and as long as Mrs. Cai gave an order, Pang Tong's body would be broken into pieces.
"What, Madame is going to do something to me?!"
Originally, Mrs. Cai was also ready to scold Xiao Cui, but when she saw Pang Tong's words and actions, Mrs. Cai was also angry in her heart.
"Stop!" Mrs. Cai held back her anger, even if this Xiaocui did something wrong and brought someone in without permission, but it was also her Mrs. Cai's maid. The lesson should also be done by Mrs. Cai, and it is not your turn to teach Pang Tong a lesson.
"Pang Gongzi, you're over!" Mrs. Cai looked at Pang Tong and said with a frown.
"Mrs. Cai, you haven't forgotten our agreement!" Pang Tong also knew that he had gone too far, this Xiaocui was Mrs. Cai's maidservant, but he didn't have the habit of bowing his head to a woman, so Pang Tong squinted at Mrs. Cai.
"Agreed!" Mrs. Cai's pupils dilated suddenly, because Pang Tong's words were good, they did have an agreement, she had not seen guests for a few days, and Pang Tong promised to let Lumen Academy stand on the side of her Cai family in the subsequent Jingzhou Gongzi dispute.
Lumen Academy. Mrs. Cai is really jealous, and this heir of the Pang family. If it was just the Pang family, Mrs. Cai would have beaten Pang Tong out a long time ago, she and Xiaocui are not just a master-servant relationship, Xiaocui has followed Mrs. Cai since she was a child, she can be regarded as Mrs. Cai's sister, how can she bear it when her sister is beaten!
Mrs. Cai took a deep breath and forcibly held back the anger in her heart, "Master Pang, look at yourself, Lumen Academy is not surnamed Pang, and the head of the Pang family is not called Tong!" "Mrs. Cai succumbed, Xiao Cui in front of her was beaten and she recognized, but after that, you Pang Tong can't do it again, if you do this again, then Mrs. Cai will no longer be patient.
Although Lumen Academy gives the Pang family face, it is to give face to Pang Degong, and the head of the Pang family is not your Pang Tong now, if you really count it, Mrs. Cai can also make Pang Tong unable to eat and walk around.
"Hmm!" Pang Tong's eyes narrowed even deeper, Mrs. Cai is threatening him, she is telling him Pang Tong, you have to understand your identity, you can talk to me, but it doesn't mean that you can cross me.
Pang Tong's eyes squinted, if it weren't for Pang Tong's small eyes, it would be obvious that he could feel the killing intent from those small eyes, right! is the killing intent, Pang Tong is a very competitive person, and what he hates the most is to be threatened and looked down upon, even his brother's best friend is still killed, not to mention Mrs. Cai, if it is possible, Pang Tong will definitely not let Mrs. Cai go.
"Haha! Madame, forgive me, it was Pang Tong who was reckless just now! I'm really sorry for this little green girl! Pang Tongpi said to Xiaocui and Mrs. Cai without smiling.
Mrs. Cai was very dissatisfied with Pang Tong's perfunctory, but she had finally stepped down, and now was not the time to turn her face with Pang Tong.
And so it went! Xiao Cui, go to the outer courtyard and drive away those merchants from the Western Regions! Pang Tong lowered his head, and Mrs. Cai naturally had to give face.
"Yes!" Xiao Cui lowered her head and sobbed, in so many years by Mrs. Cai's side, it can be said that Xiao Cui was beaten for the first time and was slapped in the face. Mrs. Cai looked distressed, but she couldn't! I can only wait until this is over, and then go and comfort Xiaocui.
"No need!" Just as Xiao Cui was about to leave, a voice sounded, and two figures broke directly into the courtyard.
"What people!" The guards around Madame Cai reacted immediately, and walked towards the source of the sound with swords in hand, wrapping the two figures in the center.
"Haha, Mrs. Cai, this is Mrs. Hospitality!" One of the two spoke loudly.
"It's you!" It's not that Mrs. Cai hasn't seen Liu Mang, he has seen Liu Mang in Liu Biao's mansion, but it's only a one-sided relationship.
"It's down there!" Liu Mang smiled indifferently and walked out, originally Xiao Cui asked them to wait outside for a short time, but after a long time, Liu Mang immediately became a little impatient, anyway, they had already entered the Cai family's mansion.
What Jia Xu was afraid of was that Mrs. Cai would never see them again, so Liu Mang thought about it and broke in without stopping.
"It turns out that Brother Pang Tong is also here!" The corners of Liu Mang's mouth rose and a sarcastic look was revealed, and now it was finally determined that this was a hindrance. The person who made Mrs. Cai not see who she was, it turned out to be this Jingzhou little turkey.
"Humph!" As soon as he saw the arrival, Pang Tong immediately snorted coldly. He turned his head to look at Xiao Cui. That kind of resentment is getting deeper and deeper, it's all because of this servant girl, he let Liu Mang get in, where is the merchant in the Western Regions isn't Liu Mang and Liu Hanyang!
Xiao Cui looked at Pang Tong's vicious eyes and couldn't help but shudder.
"His Royal Highness the King of Shu is actually doing business now! Could it be that Yangzhou has already reached this journey! Pang Tong scoffed.
Pang Tong meant that Yangzhou was so poor that even their lord had to do business.
"You are His Royal Highness the King of Shu?!" Xiao Cui covered her mouth and said in surprise.
Liu Mang smiled at Xiao Cui and nodded, he heard Pang Tong's slap on Xiao Cui outside, so for Xiao Cui, Liu Mang looked at her apologetically, and that apologetic look made Xiao Cui's heart warm.
"Huh! What do you want me to do about buying and selling?! But there are some people who hide behind the scenes and stir up right and wrong! "Liu Mang and Pang Tong's thinking is completely different. For Pang Tong, a gentleman is far away, a businessman is a lowly one, and for Liu Mang, relying on his own skills to eat, what difference does everyone have! "Besides, I'm here to give Mrs. Yu a gift this time!"
"Hehe, I really don't know when His Royal Highness the King of Shu came from the Western Regions!" Pang Tong wants to dismantle Liu Mang's platform.
"The Western Regions? It's just a place in the world, and this king has been to many places! I don't want some frogs at the bottom of the well to think that they are, but they don't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick! "Liu Mang has never given Pang Tong face, just a slap in the face.
"Poof, poof!" Liu Mang shook his head: "Poetry and book etiquette is simply learned in the belly of a dog." Even women do it! Pang Gong's family is unlucky! "Xiaocui was beaten by Pang Tong because of Liu Mang, and Liu Mang will naturally stand up for him.
"Liu Mang, Liu Hanyang!" Pang Tong's face turned red. looked at Liu Mang deadly, if he hadn't been able to beat Liu Mang, I'm afraid Pang Tong would have to step forward and make a move.
Mrs. Cai and Xiaocui on the side became supporting roles instead, watching the two arguing.
However, Mrs. Cai, who subconsciously, had a better impression of Liu Mang.
"Brother Pang Tong, please get out of the way! This king is here to find his wife this time, Brother Pang, you are in the way! Liu Mang looked at Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan with disgust.
"Hmph, His Royal Highness the King of Shu, please go back, Mrs. Cai is not a guest today!" Pang Tong said coldly to Liu Mang.
"When will your brother Pang Tong be able to call the shots for his wife?!" Liu Mang asked rhetorically.
"It's up to me!" Pang Tong was furious and was about to tell about his deal with Mrs. Cai.
"I don't know what His Highness is doing when he is looking for a concubine!" Mrs. Cai came up to Liu Mang and interrupted Pang Tong's words.
"Madame, I'm here this time!" Liu Mang was about to speak.
"If Your Highness has anything to do with government affairs, then please ask Your Highness to go to Xiangyang and talk to the master of the concubine, the concubine is a woman who can't speak!" Mrs. Cai is a woman, and a woman's calmness is higher than that of a man, although her words are not very impulsive, but she is bluntly telling Liu Mang, it is useless for you to find me.
Liu Mang was stunned for a moment, and was directly rejected by Mrs. Cai, Liu Mang really didn't expect it, but Liu Mang didn't want to succeed directly. So he was just stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Madame, I misunderstood!" ”
"Wenhe, hand it over!" Jia Xu in the back handed a large wooden box to Liu Mang.
"Little Cui girl, you come!" Liu Mang nodded at Xiao Cui in the back, looked at the palm mark on Xiao Cui's face, and couldn't help but feel distressed, "Does it hurt!" As he spoke, Liu Mang stretched out his hand to touch the handprint.
But then Liu Mang reacted, if men and women don't kiss, Liu Mang reacted, but Xiaocui on the side was shy and ruddy.
"Miss Xiaocui, this king is really guilty for causing you to be injured by a traitor, so I ask Miss Xiaocui to accept this part of the rouge gouache!" Liu Mang's words are already insinuating, saying that Pang Tong is a traitor.
"Your Highness, me?!" Xiao Cui wanted to accept it, but pushed her back again, and turned her head to look at Mrs. Cai, who was her master.
Mrs. Cai didn't answer, but nodded slightly, Xiaocui was beaten by Pang Tong, Liu Mang's responsibility is really indispensable, and these should be regarded as compensation.
"Miss Xiaocui, don't shirk" Liu Mang directly put the already wrapped cosmetics track into Xiaocui's hands, and she was not allowed to refuse, "Miss Xiaocui, there is also a mark on her face, let the next person go to the hard-boiled eggs." Flip it away and roll it on your face like this. It is possible to remove the swelling! Liu Mang taught Xiaocui a way.
"I'm done. After the explanation, please ask His Royal Highness the King of Shu to leave, my wife and I still have a chess game to play! Pang Tong directly drove away the guests.
"Madame this time this king came, not to talk about political affairs, only about Fengyue, this rouge gouache in the Western Regions, I believe that Madame also saw it from Xiaocui girl, as for the effect, Madame also understands! There is no such thing as a forever twenty-eight years. There is only one way to maintain it forever! Liu Mang directly ignored Pang Tong on the side, but talked with Mrs. Cai about maintenance.
"Like the wrinkles on this face!" Liu Mang's words directly attracted Mrs. Cai, just like Xiaocui at the beginning, Mrs. Cai listened patiently, no matter how Pang Tong on the side said, he just didn't chase away the guests.
Don't think that Mrs. Cai is a fool, Mrs. Cai doesn't know what Pang Tong thinks! Didn't he just want Yangzhou to be unable to buy grain and grass, this matter Mrs. Cai didn't want to get involved in the battle between Yangzhou and Yuzhou, the big pie of Pang Tong's Lumen Academy, Mrs. Cai also responded, so naturally she only talked about Fengyue with Liu Mang. As long as you don't talk about government affairs, you Pang Tong has nothing to say.
Liu Mang's maintenance theory simply made Mrs. Cai fascinated, such as dark circles. For example, how to maintain a dry face, as well as some things to lose weight, Liu Mang also said it well, which made Mrs. Cai nod her head uncontrollably.
But just when Mrs. Cai was fascinated, Liu Mang suddenly stopped and looked straight at Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan.
"What's going on, Your Highness?!" Mrs. Cai can't stop it, because Liu Mang's words almost wrapped her troubles into it, and now Mrs. Cai has teasing on her face and is thirty years old, and there are naturally wrinkles on her face, although they can't be removed, but they can really cover it up.
"Hehe, ma'am, some things involve some trade secrets, and some people shouldn't be here!" Some of the people Liu Mang said are naturally Pang Tong Pang Shiyuan, Liu Mang entered the mansion and Pang Tong couldn't drive away, so Pang Tong simply stayed, you talk about yours, I watched you talk, as long as Liu Mang talked about money and food, he immediately refuted it.
Mrs. Cai was a little embarrassed, he and Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan had an agreement, but Liu Mang's words also made her want to stop, and after a long time, Mrs. Cai looked at Pang Tong and said solemnly to Pang Tong, "Pang Gongzi's words will not be forgotten, only talk about Fengyue and ignore government affairs!" ”
This is a guarantee given by Mrs. Cai to Pang Tong, she wants to trade with Pang Tong, so that Lumen Academy can help Liu Zong in the subsequent battle between the sons, but she also wants to get some maintenance methods from Liu Mang.
Liu Mang's mouth has a secret recipe for maintenance passed between girls, which is also what Chen Yi asked Liu Mang to recite, for Liu Mang to use in the future.
Mrs. Cai said so, how could Pang Tong not hear it, this is to drive people out, Pang Tong snorted coldly, "I hope Mrs. will keep the contract!" Pang Tong wanted to stay, but he had to leave.
Because Xiao Cui, who had been beaten by him on the side, was already eyeing Pang Tong under the protection of the guards.
Watching Pang Tong brush his sleeves away, Liu Mang's heart was full of smiles.
"Your Highness, only talk about Fengyue, regardless of government affairs!" Mrs. Cai reminded again.
Liu Mang frowned in his heart, this woman is really difficult to deal with, if it weren't for these maintenance methods that fascinated her, I'm afraid that Liu Mang could really be swept out of the house by her, what conditions did this Pang Tong come up with to make this woman so strong.
Liu Mang is no longer the kind of love he used to be defeated in front of him, and now he also knows that hiding what he thinks, the surface and the inside are two different things.
"Of course!" Liu Mang smiled frankly, "Today I only talk about Fengyue, regardless of government affairs!" Liu Mang didn't say it to death, if you don't talk about it today, it doesn't mean that you won't talk about it tomorrow, right, Liu Mang plans to die in Mrs. Cai's mansion.
Mrs. Cai also smiled indifferently, as soon as Liu Mang finished speaking, she would immediately drive people away.
……
"Damn, damn!" Pang Tong returned to his room, and finally couldn't help it, and vented all the fire he received at Liu Mang.
"Puppet King Liu Mang. Die, die! Pang Tong Mengde slammed his foot on the table and directly kicked the entire table over.
"And that, I will definitely want you to die a good death" Pang Tong and Meng De also overturned the bookshelf, and his anger is rising now.
"Mrs. Cai! You wait, when I finish dealing with Liu Mang in Yangzhou, I will definitely take your Jingzhou, and I will send you to the army to become a military prostitute! Pang Tong's face was so black that his subordinates on the side didn't dare to approach.
"Be cautious, be cautious!" The subordinates on the side were so frightened that their faces turned white, everyone knows that you have thoughts about Jingzhou, but you can't say it so bluntly, if this is in your own mansion, this is in Mrs. Cai's mansion, you are not afraid that the wall has ears, and none of them will want to get out of this mansion at that time.
"Humph!" Pang Tong also knew that he had lost his words, so he immediately closed his mouth, but Yan Zòng's anger could not be concealed.
"The military advisor is angry!" Pang Tong's subordinates on the side comforted Pang Tong, "Military advisor, didn't this Mrs. Cai give the military advisor a guarantee!" Only talk about Fengyue, regardless of government affairs! ”
"Do you believe it?!" Pang Tong asked rhetorically.
This subordinate wanted to say that he believed it, but when he saw Pang Tong's appearance, he didn't dare to speak, for a woman, in addition to makeup, it is important to have children, in order for Liu Zong to get this Jingzhou, Mrs. Cai will still abide by the rules.
Pang Tong also believed, but he was just unhappy, and Pang Tong was also afraid, he was afraid that Liu Mang would inadvertently turn the tables again, such as today, originally after today's end, there was only one day left tomorrow to prepare to leave for Xiangyang, as long as Mrs. Cai entered Liu Biao's mansion, Liu Mang was completely hopeless, but who knows, now Liu Mang has popped up again, which simply makes Pang Tong angry and explode his lungs, that cheap maid, cheap maid.
No way! Pang Tong could no longer bear his defeat, he had to win, even if it was unscrupulous.
"Strategist? Strategist?! Pang Tong's subordinates couldn't help but worry when they looked at Pang Tong's expression, because Pang Tong's face changed from anger to hatred, and there was a kind of resentment after the disaster, and finally it became a kind of coldness.
"Mrs. Cai, slut, since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!" The vicious look on Pang Tong's face made people feel frightened when they saw it, and Pang Tong was extremely ugly, and his entire facial features were distorted, like a Shura who had climbed up from hell.
"Strategist, this thing?!" Watching Pang Tong take out a small jade bottle from the objects he brought, he was stunned for a moment, this white jade carved bottle is worth dozens of gold, and the things in this jade bottle are more valuable than the bottle, that is the most famous thing in the music hall, Liu Mang is very impressed by him, that is, Drunken Immortal Dew.
The previous barbarian princess ate a little bit of a small soup spoon, that is, one or two drops of the jade screen, but Pang Tong took out a whole bottle.
This thing was bought by Pang Tong with a lot of money, and it was originally going to return to Nanyang Yuzhou, to his lord Liu Bei, to please Liu Bei, Liu Bei is now nearly fifty years old, but he does not have the slightest heir, if this continues, Liu Bei's hearts will be scattered, so Liu Bei needs to work hard, but Liu Bei is old after all, and he is a little less interested in some women, and this drunken fairy dew is ready to be brought back to Liu Bei, so that Liu Bei's treasure knife will not be old.
But I didn't expect Pang Tong to take it out.
"There are our people in this mansion~" Pang Tong asked his subordinates on the side.
"Yes, yes, there are three people in total, one is the guard in the outer courtyard, one is the miscellaneous man in the kitchen, and the other is a maid beside Mrs. Cai!" These three people have the highest status as the maidservant, although they are not as good as Xiaocui, but this status is not low, and they can speak in front of Mrs. Cai.
"It's time to use them!" Pang Tong sneered and took out the jade bottle in his hand, "Go, pour this into the teacup of that slut and the pseudo-king Liu Mang!" ”
"Ahhhh Pang Tong's subordinates were directly stunned by Pang Tong's thoughts.
"But so, that servant?!" This servant girl finally managed to get into the mansion, and it was all over like this.
"The value is enough! Isn't it enough for a maid to exchange for a lady, and then to go to war in Jingzhou and Yangzhou? The grim look on Pang Tong's face became more and more apparent. (To be continued......)
