Chapter 34 Lingering Flowers, Gyokuro Grass

Because tonight is the birthday of Emperor Yunshu, the whole country has canceled the curfew tonight, and the streets are full of joy, there are the sounds of children playing, and there are also the sounds of hawkers hawking, compared with the past, this day is like a festival.

In the eyes of the people, they don't care what day it is, all they need is a leader who can feed them and live a good life.

And today, no matter what day it is, they know that they will be happy tonight.

Mu Yunlan sat in the carriage, looked at the happy smiling faces of the people outside the window, and sighed, this is ancient times, a king's birthday will affect the people of a country. And these phenomena, in their own world, do not appear.

This is something that cannot be avoided in an imperial society, but she Mu Yunlan is not a Jesus, nor is she a virgin, she is just an ordinary little woman, what she wants is a happy little home, with her beloved, living a simple and ordinary life.

She can't save these people, and she won't help them in pain like the saviors. Saying that she Mu Yunlan is selfish and willful, she doesn't need to accompany her life for this person who has nothing to do with her.

Looking at Mu Yunlan's thoughtful expression, Chu Qian asked suspiciously, "Yun'er, what's wrong, if you don't feel well, go back!"

Shaking his head, Mu Yunlan gently leaned on Chu Qian: "It's okay!"

There are some things, she doesn't know what to say, after all, Chu Qian is also a prince, and her own thoughts, and if she is a person in the twenty-first century, then she will understand it very well, but with a person who has grown up under the imperial power since childhood, she doesn't know if Chu Qian can accept her statement.

So, it's better not to say it.

However, Mu Yunlan said that it was okay, Chu Qian would not believe it at all, she was so obvious, but she said to herself that it was okay, isn't it, she still doesn't trust herself!

The atmosphere in the carriage was a little stiff for a while, and even Hua Feimo, who was driving the carriage outside and pretending to be desperate, felt it. However, there are things, and he thinks it's better for Chu Qian to solve them by himself, especially things like feelings.

The gift to Xia Lizhao had already entered the treasury when they first came to Yunshu, and what they brought now was just a gift list. Of course, whether it is Mu Yunlan or Chu Qian, these things are not cared for, because from beginning to end, Hua Feimo is responsible.

Just when Mu Yunlan was in a daze and Chu Qian was thinking deeply, suddenly a bell rang. Now their carriage is not far from the palace, so there is a good chance that the carriage that appears here will be there for tonight's banquet. And the protagonist of tonight's banquet is Xia Lizhao, naturally there will be no one who will find the limelight to die as a strong emperor.

But at this moment, because of this bell, it has attracted everyone's attention.

Mu Yunlan opened a gap in the curtains, like the sound of a bell.

A completely exotic carriage appeared in front of me. Just because you haven't eaten pork doesn't mean you haven't seen a pig run. In her previous life, Mu Yunlan was a person who had read a lot of historical records, and she also knew about the customs of these different regions. What's more, in Chu Qian's study, she had also seen a lot of different customs in this world, so Mu Yunlan recognized this as Xiliang's carriage at a glance.

And the veil fluttering in the wind also let Mu Yunlan know that the person sitting in the carriage was Wanyan Lijia, the daughter of the regent of Xiliang.

However, Mu Yunlan also glanced at it and lowered the curtain, because she was not interested in a flower peacock swaggering through the market.

However, the fragrance wafting out of the carriage attracted Mu Yunlan's attention. Frowning his good-looking brows, Mu Yunlan decided that it would be better just in case. If this kind of thing really happened, then she and Chu Qian would not be able to escape.

So, Mu Yunlan took out a small bottle from his sleeve pocket and poured out three pills, one of which he ate himself, one for Chu Qian, and one for Hua Feimo when others were not paying attention.

Chu Qian saw Mu Yunlan eat the pill, so he didn't hesitate to follow Mu Yunlan to eat it. However, Hua Feimo, who was driving the carriage outside, was entangled, because he didn't know whether this pill was a poison or an antidote. However, Hua Feimo understood that Mu Yunlan would not harm himself, so even if it was a poison, Hua Feimo still chose to eat it.

With a raised neck, he looked like he was at home, which made Mu Yunlan, who had been watching Hua Feimo in the car, laugh. Watching him eat the antidote he gave himself like a poison, Mu Yunlan admired his courage and decisiveness.

Because Hua Feimo calculated accurately, he would not really pay him back.

The pill melts in the mouth, and the faint medicinal fragrance that echoes in the mouth makes Hua Feimo know that this pill is precious, and he also knows that this is an antidote.

However, he didn't know what the antidote was.

In fact, Mu Yunlan was in Wanyan Lijia's carriage and smelled a smell of very rare flowers, and that kind of flower can also be said to be only available in Xiliang. If it is used in ancient China, it is the Western Regions.

And they have a unified name, called the Western Regions Strange Poison. However, in this world, it is Xiliang.

Haunting fragrant flower, just from the name, you know that this kind of flower must be very fragrant, and it is in Xiliang, that is, an ordinary spice. But it stands to reason that a county lord would not use such an ordinary joke, but what ordinary people don't know is that if this kind of floral fragrance is put together with a kind of grass, it is a kind of best medicine.

This kind of grass is generally uncommon, but because of its particularity, people often add the juice of this grass to the wine in order to improve the taste of the wine, this kind of grass is called Gyokuro grass.

Tonight is Xia Lizhao's birthday, wine is naturally an indispensable thing, and Wanyan Lijia's status is noble, and the only one who can let her personally come forward to toast is Xia Lizhao. However, some other factors cannot be ruled out.

For example, Wanyan Lijia's admiration for Chu Qian.

And this pill is really Mu Yunlan's treasure at present, because the medicinal materials in his hand are limited, so the antidote pill that Mu Yunlan has made so far is not very powerful, but the ordinary poison can be solved.

Among them, the enchanting medicine formed by the lingering fragrant flower and the gyokuro grass can be solved.

However, Mu Yunlan didn't know that this antidote, which was very ordinary in her eyes, was the best in Hua Feimo's eyes. Because of following Tang Mochen, he knows all the medicines. Moreover, as a businessman, it is also necessary for him to know the preciousness of these medicines, so in Hua Feimo's opinion, the medicine that Mu Yunlan gave him this time is completely the kind of treasure that can be encountered but not sought.

He planned to go back to Mu Yunlan and ask if he could sell him some of this.

Similarly, sitting in the carriage, after dressing up, Wanyan Lijia was full of pride at the moment. Even with the spices of this lingering flower, tonight, all she had to do was send that woman to Xia Lizhao's bed. Her father had promised her that he would not let her fall victim to him like his other sisters.

In fact, speaking of which, this beautiful Lijia looks also very beautiful, with wheat-colored skin, a straight nose, plump lips, and amber eyes, yes, she has a strong visual difference with the gentle and lovely Jiangnan woman.

And Wanyan Lijia's appearance in Xiliang is a first-class existence, plus her father is the regent, so she has developed a pampered and coquettish, proud and arrogant character.

About a tea time later, Mu Yunlan's carriage arrived at the gate of the palace, and at the door, there were still many carriages parked, among them, there was Wanyan Lijia's carriage. Wanyan Lijia and Wanyan Shaohong are not in the same carriage, Mu Yunlan estimates that it may be that Wanyan Lijia wants to better highlight herself. However, these have nothing to do with Mu Yunlan at all.

Because of the lingering fragrant flowers and jade dew grass, Mu Yunlan thought about whether to come to the palace at night tonight or something. But as soon as her proposal came out, it was opposed by Chu Qian. The reason is that Mu Yunlan's current martial arts are still obediently staying in the palace, and he asked Chu Qian to do something about visiting the palace at night. Because today is Xia Lizhao's birthday, the defense of the palace will naturally be strengthened, and if Mu Yunlan goes, there may be some alarm, so Chu Qian plans to go and see for Mu Yunlan.

Mu Yunlan, who was still a little sullen because Chu Qian didn't let her go, could only agree after hearing Chu Qian say this, and after thinking about it, because what Chu Qian said was the truth. She is very likely to be the one who drags Chu Qian down.

The palace doesn't want the Prime Minister's Mansion, such an important place, if there are not a few masters, it can only mean that Xia Lizhao is more powerful than the masters.

However, it is obvious that Xia Lizhao, who has a yellow face and thin muscles and excessive indulgence, is not a master at first glance, so there must be a master in the Yunshu Palace, and there are quite a few.

Mu Yunlan didn't tell Chu Qian about the lingering fragrant flowers and jade dew grass, but Chu Qian noticed some extraordinary factors from Mu Yunlan's words and deeds, otherwise, why would Mu Yunlan want to visit the palace at night, and why did he give them such precious medicine.

Although Chu Qian knew where these things came from, he knew that even if his master wanted to take out three pills with the same effect at a time, it was estimated that his flesh would hurt for a long time.

Chu Qian didn't know how to medicine, but he had a very powerful mouth, and after the pill was swallowed, he knew its efficacy, but because he didn't understand medicine, he didn't know what medicinal materials were added to this pill.

If Mu Yunlan told him that this pill was just some ordinary medicinal materials, it was estimated that Chu Qian would not believe it.
