Chapter 36: Zhang Ji Honors the Truth of Words Water
Nine Kings' Mansion. Su Yuexian was sitting in front of the vanity mirror and drawing her eyebrows.
"Miss, tonight's supper is shrimp wonton, crab roe bun and wine-stuffed peach blossom milk dew." Nuo Nuo walked in with a smile on his face with a food box, "The prince really feels sorry for you, and invited the cooks from the small vendors you love to eat to the house with a lot of money." In this way, the young lady will be able to eat delicious food anytime and anywhere in the future. ”
"Well, it's still hot. The moonlight is so beautiful, it's so boring to eat alone. Su Yuexian glanced at the steaming snacks in the food box and said with a smile.
Nuo Nuo snorted and laughed, "Miss means ......"
Su Yuexian picked out a magnolia hairpin to decorate the newly combed hair bun above it, got up and tidied up the leno on the crook of her arm, and then walked out of the house, "Go!" Go to the prince. ”
When Su Yuexian came, Yun Chuxiu was sitting alone in the pavilion in the middle of the lake and stroking the qin, the smoke was vast, and the white clothes were a little colder than the moonlight.
The guard Canghai was reporting something to him, and Yun Chuxiu's eyes were obviously gloomy, but his fingertips were playing the piano music with a light breeze.
Canghai noticed that someone was coming, and turned around and disappeared into the shadows of the trees.
Yun Chuxiu raised his eyes and saw a clear and beautiful figure slowly coming from a distance. Su Yuexian was wearing a light gauze plain skirt, and the goose-yellow leno in the crook of her arm fluttered lightly in the wind.
He was a little stunned, in the past, there was only blood and sand in his eyes, even if the emperor had wanted to reward him with a stunning dancing queen, he did not argue about beauty and ugliness.
But now, looking at Su Yuexian, his heart moved slightly, like the lotus in the center of the lake being slowly blown away by the breeze, and something was constantly pouring out from the depths of his heart. He looked down at the row of strings plucked by his fingertips, but he couldn't hear the sound in his ears, but instead his own drum-like heartbeat.
It turned out that unconsciously, he had fallen so much attention to her.
"You...... How did you come here? Yun Chuxiu was a little unnatural, he moved his body, and untied the cloak on his body to put on Su Yuexian, "The night is cool." ”
Su Yuexian put the food box on the crook of her arm in front of Yun Chuxiu, and said with a smile: "I heard Sang Tian say that when the prince is alone, he likes to play the piano and admire the moon in the Huxin Pavilion. What he said was really right, the prince's guqin played very well. ”
Yun Chuxiu's heart was full of sourness, and he asked softly: "Sangtian, can he please you?" ”
Su Yuexian brought out the snacks in the food box one by one, "Well, he's fine." ”
"That'...... That's it. Yun Chuxiu's voice was inaudible.
"How is Peach Blossom Milk Dew sour?" Su Yuexian put the delicacies in the food box on the table in front of her one by one, picked up a bowl of peach blossom milk dew from it, sniffed it and frowned.
"Sour?"
Su Yuexian scooped a spoonful of milk dew into Yun Chuxiu's mouth while he was unprepared, and smiled like a cat, "The prince eats Sangtian's vinegar, what is the milk dew that is not sour?" ”
"...... you" Yun Chuxiu knew that she was being teased, and wanted to say something, but looking at Su Yuexian's happy smiling face, she didn't know what to say for a while, and stretched out her hand to pull her into her arms, "If I had known that this peach blossom milk dew tasted so good." She shouldn't have been pushed away in the first place, it was the king himself who pushed her to someone else. ”
"The prince likes this peach blossom milk dew?"
"It's more than liking. In the sky and on the earth, the only thing that has entered the heart is this bowl of peach blossom milk dew. ”
"Since the prince likes it, I'll go to the kitchen to serve more."
"Don't go." Yun Chuxiu tightened her hand and pulled Su Yuexian back into her arms, "Xiaoyue, you won't leave this king in the future...... Isn't it? ”
"Yes." Su Yuexian hesitated for a moment and replied.
Yun Chuxiu leaned on Su Yuexian's shoulder contentedly like a child, and said softly, "Don't break your word. ”
Su Yuexian stretched out her hand and patted him on the back, and replied, "Lord Wang, Lord Wang?" ”
At this moment, Yun Chuxiu was as weak as a lump of mud. Su Yuexian helped him to sit up and tentatively pushed his shoulder. Seeing that his cheeks were crimson and his eyes were drunk, he stretched his waist with confidence and moved his shoulder blades.
"Lord Wang, you are usually thoughtful, and it is difficult to ask the truth from your sober mouth, don't blame me for drugging you, if those bad things are not done by you, we can still be friends, you are still my male god." But if you do, I said, you will avenge him. Su Yuexian looked at Yun Chuxiu in front of her and said.
"Whatever you want to know, this king will answer truthfully." Yun Chuxiu said vaguely.
It seems that the mantra given by the owner of Zhang Ji Cake Shop has worked.
That's right, you guessed that right.
During the day, when Su Yuexian went out to play, she ran to Zhang Ji Cake Shop.
The owner of that cake shop was Li Qingxian's man. The owner of the pastry shop is a "spice idiot". He likes to study some strange condiments, such as what can be warmed up after drinking with peppercorns in Heding Red, and arsenic made of Yanjin plums for deep palace resentful women.
She went there to pick up some strange poisons with Li Qingxian in the past. I also heard that the owner of Zhang Ji Cake Shop has something called Zhenyan Water in his hand, which tastes like wine, but only one drop can make people feel like drunk.
"First question, have you ever harmed Li Qingxian?"
"This king has harmed Li Qingxian, a total of thirteen times. The first time was when we were eight years old, the day before my father died in the Chinese New Year's Eve, and the whole country mourned for three days, but he was dressed in red and hid in the cold palace with a group of little eunuchs riding bamboo horses and setting off paper cannons, and the king ordered someone to whip him ......"
"Uh...... Dare to love you and Li Qingxian are still childhood sweethearts. ”
"At the second birthday banquet of the Queen Mother, he relied on his favor and slapped the king's personal attendant Sang Tian, and the king ordered someone to whip him. The third time, he stopped the king's carriage in the street, and the king beat him. The fourth time, he poisoned and killed the koi in the lotus pond of the king, and the king beat him again. The fifth time, he secretly practiced forbidden arts, went mad and came to the king in the middle of the night to compete with him, and the king beat him out. The sixth time he added pepper water to the bath of this king, and this king ......"
"Well, lord, or you just say the last time." How did Yun Chuxiu say this, which made Su Yuexian smell a trace of love. Ahem, the occupational disease is committed again.
"Last ......" Yun Chuxiu suddenly groaned, frowned and thought for a while, and continued: "He forcibly married you and dragged you into the quagmire of struggle between the government and the opposition, this king found him and asked him to return your freedom, but he was aggressive if he didn't agree. I saw him ask the king about the whereabouts of the blood jade salvia. The king designed a map for him to enter the forbidden land of the Treasure Pavilion. When he defeats the thousand-year-old green snake, this king will lead his troops to encircle and suppress him......"
"Encirclement and suppression?!" Su Yuexian's whole body was as if she had fallen into an ice cave, she understood everything, it was really Yun Chuxiu's doing. And the ginseng soup she drank during this period of time was actually found for her by Li Qingxian at the risk of death.
"It turns out that you did everything! Lord, why do you lie to me again and again! Su Yuexian grabbed Yun Chuxiu's clothes, her eyes were red, and her whole body trembled with anger, "You tell me, is Li Qingxian still alive?" He hasn't come to see me yet, is it because he's badly injured? ”
"I was injured by the green snake that guarded the royal treasure pavilion for thousands of years, and I was hit by the king's arrow. Even if he didn't die, he would have to be disabled. Yun Chuxiu sneered.
"But that night, I saw someone bring me an antidote, who was that person!" Su Yuexian grabbed the placket of his clothes and asked anxiously.
"Maybe it's his, but the woman who wants to assassinate you is also his."
"Have your people found him?"
"Not yet. But recently, a subordinate discovered that a person wearing a Shura mask often haunts the vicinity of the palace, and every time he wanted to ask more clearly, those subordinates died. Presumably, that person is likely to be Li Qingxian's person. ”
"It could also be him......" Su Yuexian muttered to herself with the last glimmer of hope.
Yun Chuxiu's chest rose and fell, he suddenly sat up and said, "Impossible! He must be dead! The king must find him, and even if he digs his grave, he will bring his body to you. You have said that if you live to see a man and die to see a corpse, only when he dies can you stay by the king's side forever without worry. ”
"Yun Chuxiu, you are dreaming." Su Yuexian plucked the magnolia hairpin on her bun and held it tightly in the palm of her hand, and the sharp head under the moonlight glowed with a cold light. She met the pulse beating around Yun Chuxiu's neck......
"Miss, Nuo Nuo is worried that you and the prince will not have enough to eat. And he commanded the cook to add a few dishes to you. There are dragons and phoenixes, jujube and precious sons, and acacia cakes...... Miss, what are you ...... What's wrong with him? ”
Su Yuexian took advantage of the situation to pick up Yun Chuxiu's collar with the hairpin in her hand, and let the sleepy Yun Chuxiu lean on her shoulder, "Lord, Lord Wang." Nuo Nuo is here, so she is embarrassed to see it. ”
Yun Chuxiu's shoulders came out of the wide collar, his black hair was messy, and he was close to Su Yuexian. Nuo Nuo's face turned red, and he immediately turned his back and stammered, "I...... I didn't see anything! Go on, go on. ”
After Nuo Nuo left, most of the medicinal effects on Yun Chuxiu's body had passed. His eyes gradually cleared, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Su Yuexian with red circles and tears in his eyes.
He sat up in a panic, and when he saw that he was disheveled, he asked, "Are you......?" Nothing, right? ”
"Peach blossom milk dew is eaten with the prince's wine, maybe the stamina is a little big, and the prince is drunk. We'll see the moon another day. Su Yue Xianmu opened her mouth suddenly, got up and disappeared into the faint night mist.
Yun Chuxiu leaned back on the soft couch and weakly pulled the collar that fell on the crook of his arm. Fill the cup of wine in front of him, and drink it all with his head up. He held his forehead and eyebrows with unconcealable pain and said, "Come out." ”
The person hidden in the shadow of the tree turned down, knelt down in front of Yun Chuxiu, and intercepted the wine jug in Yun Chuxiu's hand, "Lord Wang, you can't drink anymore." The mantra water and alcohol will increase the effect of the medicine and will cause people to fall into a coma. ”
"Oh, mantra water." Yun Chuxiu suddenly laughed, his eyes were foggy, and his heart was clenched, astringent and painful.
Canghai, a tall and strong man, really couldn't understand the strange prince who had been strange in recent days, and said angrily: "The prince has always been extremely smart, why did he drink that bowl of peach blossom dew even though he knew that he couldn't drink it?" Why didn't the prince allow Canghai to appear, if it wasn't ......"
"Needless to say. Step aside. ”
"Lord Wang!" Canghai was angry and annoyed, his fists creaked, "That woman wants to harm you!" ”
"The king is just gambling. Bet on whether the person in her heart is this king or Li Qingxian. If the person she likes is this king, there is nothing wrong with this king drinking the water of mantra to let her know the truth, and it is also untying the knot in our hearts, knowing that this king killed him for her good, and from then on this king and her can see each other honestly. Yun Chuxiu clenched the wine jug in his hand, the internal force collided, the wine jug shattered in his palm, and blood snaked down from his pale knuckles, falling drop by drop into the bowl of peach blossom milk dew, "She has been close to this king these days, do you know how happy this king is in his heart." When she fed Ben Wang peach milk dew, Ben Wang wished it was really an ordinary bowl of sweet soup. Canghai, it turns out that the taste of failure in the relationship is so uncomfortable and bitter......"
"Lord Wang!"
Yun Chuxiu covered his chest and curled up in pain, the residual poison in his body attacked his heart and lungs again, coupled with the frequent attacks of the prohibition in his body today, which made him feel spasmodic pain all over his body, and he couldn't support it and fell to the ground and spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Lord Wang, why are you bothering! She doesn't even know and doesn't appreciate all of this you're doing! ”
Cang Haiqiang endured the hatred in his heart and immediately healed Yun Chuxiu's Yungong, but no matter how much internal force he entered, Yun Chuxiu's face was still as white as a piece of paper.
