Chapter 173: Fan's Suqi (3)
I never expected that the yellow-faced and thin-skinned poor girl would be the daughter of Fan Jishe, the sect leader of the Fan family, and I also didn't expect that Asu, who was not good-looking, would be a musician who moved Linzi City.
Just now, when I inadvertently found out the "Wanzi Pear" she hid under the box, I connected Ah Su and Qingge for the first time. The small silver turquoise box contained a treasure of thousands of gold in Pakistan - Wanzi pear. This Wanzi pear is only produced in the jungle of southern Pakistan, the material is like wood but the shape is like chicken feet, the taste is light and slightly astringent. If it is eaten raw or used as medicine, it can only be used to cool the blood, but it has a miraculous use when used in wine. Legend has it that the goddess Yidi used it to make a blue wine. At the beginning, I asked for a small half box from Shi Mo, but I tried several times but failed. It wasn't until that day that I drank drunk Xi in Qingle Fang that I knew that the musician Qingge had been favored by the goddess of wine one step ahead of me.
The price of Wanzi pears is more than gold, but it is of no great use except for brewing green wine. Ordinary people can't afford it, and even if they can, they don't know what it's for. But with this box of Wanzi pears alone, I still can't believe that Ah Su, who doesn't look amazing in front of me, is the musician Qingge who has caused countless men to lose their hearts and souls. Just now, the little maid's closing action in one go reminded me of Qingle Fang and Qingge again. On the same day, I traveled to Qingle Fang with Zhang Mengtan, and the little maids who served wine and food, the musicians holding the piano, and the little jujube who later passed the message to Zhang Mengtan, opened and closed the door with this set of elegant and smooth movements.
In order to pretend to be a teacher to deceive Chen Wei, I have been to several teaching workshops on Yongmen Street, and each of them has its own set of actions for greeting, sending off, closing the door, and serving food. And the little maid who just sent the cloth strip in, what she did was clearly a unique closing action in Qingle Fang.
"Is it all taken care of?" Ah Su didn't notice my abnormality, and after examining the wound on the big man, she handed me a handkerchief to wipe my hands.
"Well, it's all right, don't touch the water within ten days, just change the dressing often." I tied the last knot on the big man, and lowered my head to put the blood-stained cloth in a ball on the lacquer plate next to it, "Now can you tell me what you want me to do?" β
"As you know, I am the daughter of the Fan family, from Handan to Chaoge, my father was chased and killed by Zhao Ying all the way to the Qi State. Originally, the first family of the Jin Kingdom, now that they are dead and fleeing, only with the protection of my father-in-law Chen Heng, my father and my younger brother can live to this day. If the father-in-law loses to the right minister Kan Zhi this time, then the heads of our Fan clan will be placed on Zhao Ying's bookcase within half a month. Kan Zhi wrote every day in the past few days, asking Qi Hou to abolish his father-in-law's position as the left minister. Today, he gathered several doctors from the Ziya clan and the Shi clan, and knelt down to beg the Marquis of Qi to take back the three mining estates in the hands of the Chen family. Tomorrow, the father-in-law will present these three fiefs to the Marquis of Qi, along with twenty female musicians and fifty good horses. When the time comes, you and I will have to enter the palace. β
"Me? Entering the palace? I sneered, and carefully wiped the blood stains and medicinal powder on my fingers with a handkerchief, "It's not a matter of a day or two that your stepfather controls the government of Qi State, if I am the Marquis of Qi, I will definitely go down the paved road of Kanzhi." When the time is ripe, he will peel his Chen Heng's skin alive. Female music? At this time, even if the Chen family sent twenty heavenly immortals into the palace, they couldn't change Qi Hou's mind. As I spoke, I shoved the blood-stained and powdered handkerchief into my cuff without a trace.
"That's why I took such a big risk to capture you!" Ah Su held the lacquer bowl of water in one hand, and slowly brushed Si'er's face with the other hand, "I want you to enter the palace, not for you to sleep with a man." I want you to let Qi Hou get sick unknowingly and stop for seven days. Casting spells, or using medicine, it's up to you. Of course, if you can cast a spell tonight to make Qi Hou sick, then I will send you back before sunset tomorrow. After speaking, Ah Su slowly brought her powdered face in front of me, "ButβI guess you can't do it, right?" β
I am a sorcerer, but I do not believe in any witchcraft that can make people sick in the air. But at this moment, my life and Si'er's lives are still in Asu's hands, and I can't let her doubt my "divine power".
"Good! It's very simple. You first ask your father to hand over to me the Shang King Asking Shencong. β
"Ask Shencong to be dedicated to Qi Hou when he entered Qi in his early years." Ah Su was a little surprised, but still answered my question honestly.
"What about Xia Yujian and Xuanzhu Mirror?"
"Xia Yujian is the sword of his father-in-law, and the Xuanzhu mirror has been transferred to Chen Shizi. What do these things, you ask? β
"It's just curious, when the Zhi clan captured the Fan Mansion, everyone thought that the three missing treasures fell into the hands of the Zhi clan, but it turned out that you took it away yourself." He mentioned to me in the valley that day, he said that when A-Niang was trapped in the secret room, he used asking Shencong and Xia Yujian as bait to lure him to come to his rescue. But if these two things have been in Fan Ji's hands, why does A-Niang dare to make such a promise? She said that my father was not among the six Qings, so what is the relationship between her and Fan Jiji? Could it be that she was just talking nonsense and coaxing the thief in the first place?
"Don't talk about it anymore, tell me, what does it take to cast a spell?" Ah Su was a little impatient.
I skimmed off the distracting thoughts in my heart, shrugged my shoulders and said, "I want a box of true incense, a plate of cinnabar, a piece of floating wood, a dead baby who has just died for less than three days, and the belongings of Qi Hou and Chen Heng." β
"What do you want your father's stuff for?" Ah Su said alertly.
"What I want is not Chen Heng's things, what I want is his desires, his obsession with Qi Hou's illness or death. Do you have one? If you're obsessed enough, take your belt off and give it to me. β
"My obsession can't kill Qi Hou, but I can take the lives of Zhao Ying and Zhao Wuxian!" Ah Su glared at me with a scrutinizing gaze for a long time, and finally flicked the sleeves of his robe and stood up, "You wait, I'll go get what you want." β
"Su, don't be fooled!" The big man who was sitting silently on the red couch suddenly stood up at this time, "Qi Hou also wants Xiangye to die, if this woman uses any tricks when casting a spell, then it will be Xiangye who is cursed!" β
Ah Su turned around suddenly when he heard this, and a faint blue-gray color instantly appeared on his pale face: "What a poisonous plan, I'm afraid that if my father-in-law is sick, we can only be at your mercy!" Son of God, Son of God, you really can't let people slack off. β
"His name is Dasha, so he is not a fool." I glanced at the mountain-like man in front of me, and sat down beside Si'er in a sneer's voice, "I don't want to enter the palace, since you won't let me cast a spell, then I'll give you a pair of disease-causing poison." You can find a chance to put it in the incense burner in the palace of the Marquis of Qi. I'll stay here until it's done, and you can make this clever fool look at me. β
"Let Dasha look at you? Unless I cut off your hands and feet first, I'm afraid you'll be out of here in a day. Ah Su suddenly glanced out of the door when he said this, and said suspiciously, "Or do you already know where this is, so you want to stay and wait for Zhao Wuxian and them to come to the door?" β
"As far as I know, this Qi country didn't have a mansion built for Jin Qing Fan Jiju, could it be that this is the Chen Mansion?" I raised my eyebrows and mocked.
"That's it! I don't want to play any tricks with you. The dosage of poison depends on the patient's body shape, weight, and physical strength to determine the amount of medicine, which you have taught me. Qi Hou's medicine must be so that the witch doctor in the palace can't see it, when to make him sick, when to make him better, there can be no mistakes. Whether you want to enter the palace or not, if you want to survive, you have to go with me. After the deed is completed, I will let you out of the palace. β
Enter the palace and see the Marquis of Qi? An idea popped into my head.
"Well, I don't have the right to refuse anyway. Bring me the cloth, and I will write you the herbs you need. I sat down at the back of the desk and reached out to take a white silk handkerchief handed over by Ah Su, "Ah Su, it was Chen Heng who told you that you and I poisoned Qi Hou, can you still get out of the palace safely?" β
"You don't believe me?"
"I'm not as naΓ―ve as you think."
"Whether you believe it or not, after the matter is over, I will take you out of the palace, I swear by my father's life!"
"I saved your father's life." I glanced at her, stopped talking, and quietly wrote the names of the herbs on the handkerchief.
In the poison scripture of Yichen, there are many recipes that make people die without a trace, and there are also many recipes that make people sleepy and weak. But I didn't want this harmful poison prescription to fall into Ah Su's hands, so I wrote down more than 30 herbs in one go.
"That's all? Don't write more? "Ah Su is a smart woman, and she has already seen through my careful thoughts.
"That's enough." I put down my pen and turned around and walked to Si'er's side, "I want you to send her back, I want to see her enter the house with my own eyes, so I will willingly follow you into the palace." β
"Ah Shi, you'd better stop playing any tricks." Ah Su couldn't hide her tiredness at the moment, she looked at me and sighed, and turned to the big guy and said, "Are you okay?" Can you give us a ride? β
"I'm fine." The big man picked up a greatsword leaning against the wall and nodded heavily.
The big man carried the unconscious Si'er to his shoulders, Ah Su blindfolded me with a black cloth, gagged my mouth, and finally tied my hands behind my back with a thick hemp rope: "I'm sorry, someone told me that I have to be a hundred points mentally fighting against you, and I finally understand the meaning of this today." So, I've wronged you. After saying that, she pumped hard, and the hemp rope instantly strangled into my flesh.
Damn it! Who the hell told her that I would heal, that I would poison, that I had a dagger hidden in my shoes.
I endured the pain in my wrist and was pushed out the door by Ah Su after a few words.
It was drizzling outside the door, and the sound of the piano wafted in the night breeze. After Si'er was put into the carriage by the big man, I was immediately pulled into the carriage by Asu. Soon after the carriage drove out, I turned two corners and I heard the laughter of women on both sides of the street and the drunken shouts of men.
This is indeed Yongmen Street.
