Chapter 115: A Big Disaster
Chu Yue'an and Ling Huan went back to the inn, but they saw Bai Guangyang talking happily with a man.
The man was in his early twenties, his body was a little weak, his face was a little pale, his eyebrows were handsome, and his eyes were smiling, with a sense of alienation and reserve.
Chu Yue'an stepped forward and sat down at the same table as them and asked, "Don't you mind, right?" ”
Bai Guangyang hurriedly explained: "This is my master. ”
The man shook his fan and smiled shallowly: "I know, Chu Yue'an, the second lady of Ninghou Mansion." ”
Chu Yuean squinted vigilantly, poured himself a cup of tea, and asked with a smile: "You know me, I don't remember, I know you." ”
"I brought you here." The smile on the man's face was still the same, as if he didn't notice the change in the mood of the girl in front of him, "But my original plan was just to hope that this son would come, and the girl would come with him, beyond my plan." ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Ling Huan, who had just taken a seat, and the smile in his eyes deepened.
"Tell me who you are, what you want to do." Chu Yue'an poured another cup of tea and pushed it in front of the man, "I don't like to do aimless things. If there is a place where I can help, since I have come here, I don't want to go in vain, let's negotiate the conditions, and I will be considered voluntary. But if you want to use us to achieve your goals, I'm afraid you're going to have an empty plan. ”
The man glanced at Ling Huan and said with a light smile: "Presumably the Pavilion Master should have guessed my identity, right?" ”
The jade bone fan in Ling Huan's hand opened, fanned, and then put it away, making a crisp sound, his eyes were as deep as ink, and with a hint of murderous intent, his thin lips opened lightly: "If I guessed correctly, you should be Su Hongshen, the young master of the secret realm." ”
"Yes, I'm Su Hongshen." The man said indifferently, "Invite the pavilion master to come here, and ask for something." ”
"Wait a minute." Chu Yue'an touched his chin and smiled, "Dare to love that there is nothing wrong with me here, right?" Why don't you talk first, I'll go back and pack my things and go back to Beijing first. ”
She stood up and prepared to leave, sat back again, and said unwillingly, "Let me straighten out the whole thing." Su Gongzi, you lured Ling Gongzi with Qi Wu, so you knew about his poisoning a long time ago, right? If even you know that Qi Wu can cure the poison on his body, and he has no reason not to know it, then Ling Gongzi, are you asking me to detoxify you Are you playing tricks or are you testing me? ”
She paused and continued: "Or rather, you knew early on that this lacquer crow was just a bait, so you pulled me to lie down with you in this troubled water. ”
Ling Huan did not deny Chu Yue'an's speculation, and said with a light smile: "Smart." ”
"Why?" Chu Yue'an looked at Ling Huan's gaze with more incomprehension than the anger of being used, "You are the master of the Full Moon Pavilion, you actually use this method to deal with me, how can I be?" ”
"You're very good, and you're definitely one of the best among the women I know, so there's no need to be presumptuous." Ling Huan chuckled.
"Gave you face, didn't you?" Chu Yuean slapped the table.
"It's not what I want to cause a dispute between the two." Su Hong said softly, "Why don't you two listen to my purpose first, the woman in the underground secret room, you must have seen the two of you, right?" ”
Chu Yue'an and Ling Huan glanced at each other, Chu Yue'an became a little interested, sat down again, and asked, "Do you know that woman too?" What is her relationship with you? ”
"She's my mother, and I hope you two can get her out." Su Hongshen said, "I know that there are many doubts in the hearts of the two of you, although she is my mother, but it is inconvenient for me to make a move, and she is also a dangerous person, once the news of her rescue spreads, she will inevitably be hunted down, not only her, but even the people she has seen will be hunted down." So that's why I came to you, the Pavilion Master, because you have the strength to protect her. ”
"But why does the Pavilion Master want to help you save people?"
"The lacquer is in my hands, if it is successful, I will give it to the lacquer." Su Hongshen said.
"She's being hunted because she knows a secret recipe that only she knows, right?" Chu Yue'an asked, "What secret recipe, so dangerous?" ”
"No comment."
"Two, no fifth person will know about this matter, but our master and apprentice will not be involved." Chu Yue'an smiled, "I'm different from the two, the two are high-powered, the masters around them are like clouds, and the strength is outstanding, and I'm just a weak woman, if I am really hunted down, it will be a trouble for me, and I don't want to cause this trouble." As for you, Pavilion Master, if Qi Wu is in your hands and you need my help, I will take action, but in terms of your ability, it shouldn't be anything for me. I won't bother the two of you to discuss what will happen after that, and I will take my leave. ”
As he spoke, Chu Yuean pulled Bai Guangyang upstairs.
"Master......"
"Shut up!"
"Are we really going back to Beijing?" Bai Guangyang followed Chu Yue'an upstairs and asked anxiously.
"Or else?" Chu Yuean snorted lightly, "Waiting to be hunted down?" The two of them have someone under their hands, and they can completely protect themselves, if the two of us provoke someone who shouldn't be provoked, if we don't want to die, we have to bow down to them and seek their protection. The last thing I like as a person is to take the initiative to bow to people! You can rest assured, these two scheming skills are not lacking, there are not many of us, and we will not have any impact if we are less. ”
Now Chu Yue'an knows what it means to be lonely and difficult to sing. In the past, when she was on a mission in Xuanmen, it was clear that the intelligence would be analyzed for you, even if the intelligence was lacking, there were multiple channels to ensure the synchronization of the news, but now she is like a blind person, and if others give her a little fog, she has to follow others in circles. claims to be smart, but Ling Huan's tricks are turned around, and this account will naturally be settled with him in the future!
Chu Yuean packed her luggage and rushed back non-stop, not because she was afraid, but because she didn't take fearless adventures that she was not sure about.
She also had a stomach full of doubts and curiosity in her heart, wanting to find out those secrets. But she also knows that the more she knows, the more dangerous it is, especially if she doesn't have enough strength to protect herself.
She doesn't know anything about the depth of the other party's origin, this is not the same as the fight of the people in the Hou Mansion, the Zhao family's vicious methods are limited after all and have scruples, if they provoke the organizations on the rivers and lakes, it will not be so easy, she herself has done this business before, and she knows that it is impossible to prevent it.
Yuwang Mansion.
The people in the Zhao family were invited by Aunt Xiang to refute the face, and the expenses of the Zhao family and daughter were cut again, Chu Yuezi's life was not easy, and on this day, Concubine Yu invited her to Yuwang's Mansion to relax.
As soon as they met, Chu Yuezi began to cry: "Poor mother has done her best for the Hou Mansion, but now it is such an ending. Grandmother was also blinded by lard, and she was coaxed by Aunt Xiang, which is really chilling to her mother. ”
Concubine Yu angrily flipped the teacup on the table to the ground, and gritted her silver teeth: "The deception is too much, her little concubines dare to bully the head of the master's mother, I think she has eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall!" If you don't put my Zhao family in your eyes, you don't put me in your eyes, and you don't put Yuwang in your eyes! ”
"Auntie, don't be angry...... Chu Yuezi held Concubine Yu's arm and said softly, "At present, the power of the family is controlled by Aunt Xiang, and my mother and I are also struggling to survive, and we can't help my uncle and them, and the most important thing now is to let my mother take care of the house again." ”
"Don't worry, leave this matter to me, I'll tell King Yu. The family is in power by the concubine, and the Hou Mansion is not afraid of losing this face! Concubine Yu picked up Chu Yuezi's chin and looked at the scar on her face, "Your injuries are recovering well, look, this light color is almost invisible." ”
"I have to thank my aunt for this, if it weren't for the pear blossom paste sent by my aunt, the injury on my face wouldn't have healed so quickly!" Chu Yuezi smiled slightly and said coquettishly.
While talking, a maid came to report: "Concubine Yu, the princess has just sent someone to pass the word, Miss Chu San is here, she has prepared some wine and food, and invites you over!" ”
"Got it, I'll go over here." Concubine Yu said lightly.
"Auntie, this Princess Yu doesn't have much of a fight."
Concubine Yu snorted disdainfully: "It's just a hen that can't lay eggs, what kind of shelf do you deserve?" The prince is thinking of the love between husband and wife, and she has been good to her if she has not divorced, and now she is not allowed to be a man with her tail between her legs in the palace? Let's go, since she has prepared the wine and food, we can't not appreciate her face. ”
In addition to Concubine Yu and Chu Yuezi, there was also the old princess of Yuwangfu, who was almost in her prime, and her health was not very good.
Princess Yu had a son before, but he died young, and he has not given birth since then, and King Yu's other concubines are also nothing, this old princess is in a hurry, fortunately, Concubine Yu's stomach is angry, and she gave birth to a grandson, so this concubine from the beginning of the concubine was directly promoted to a side concubine.
The old princess has only one grandson under her knees, raised carefully, the mother is expensive by her son, this jade concubine is also deeply loved by the old princess, compared to it, Princess Yu's original situation is much more miserable, old and decrepit, and after the loss of her son, she has no husband's favor and comfort, not to mention, her mother-in-law often complains and humiliates.
The old princess pulled Chu Yuezi to chat affectionately, and Concubine Yu interjected a few words beside her, this Princess Yu was cold and lonely like an outsider, and she had to serve her mother-in-law from time to time.
After lunch, the old princess pulled Chu Yuezi inside to talk, chatting about the head wind attack, and the pain was unbearable.
Chu Yuezi found that this symptom was very similar to that of the Duchess of Qi's Mansion, and she had recently learned acupuncture, so she volunteered to treat the old princess.
Concubine Yu added oil and vinegar to the side, saying that her nephew's medical skills are outstanding, and she is a rare gifted person, so the old princess believed it and asked her to try to treat her head wind.
"Don't worry, the old princess, Yuezi will not live up to your trust, and she will definitely cure your head wind disease completely." Chu Yuezi said confidently and ordered someone to take out his silver needle.
Chu Yue'an saved the old lady Qi and gained a reputation, if she had cured the old princess's stubborn illness for many years, she would have been able to overwhelm Chu Yue'an, thinking of this, Chu Yuezi didn't feel that the new trend began to worship, she felt that her medical skills had improved a lot recently, and she lacked an opportunity to show her skills.
Chu Yuezi recalled the content of the medical book and began to apply needles to the old princess, and after more than ten needles, the old princess suddenly convulsed, and then blood began to bubble out of her mouth and nose.
Chu Yuezi was stunned, what was going on? How so?
