Chapter 163: Speech Barrier

The reason is simple, the trick is in the bowl of soup I cooked for the girl in the morning. The raw materials of that soup can be seen everywhere in Xiyue, and the people of Xiyue have to drink it every day.

Therefore, this is the reason why the people of Xiyue will not be poisoned and the army of Qi will be poisoned! Now that the girl's condition has improved, the grass people know that the grass people's guess is right. ”

In the eyes of outsiders, Xi Yue has always been a mystery, and mutual restraint is also the most obvious truth in medical books. Xi Yue people are the most proficient at using poison, so it is not surprising that they have such a method.

Junlan subconsciously believed three points, but she still wanted to ask for solid evidence: "Since the general drug testing methods can't be tested, how did Mr. Mu try it?" ”

Mr. Mu had already prepared: "Trouble the two brothers outside the door to bring in the things I prepared!" ”

As soon as the words fell, a guard brought in two water tanks, one containing water and the other containing a few goldfish.

"The water in both tanks comes from the same place, including the goldfish. Since the goldfish are fine, it proves that the raw water is not toxic enough to poison the goldfish.

Today, I traveled around the barracks with two Dr. Jiang and saw that the water that the soldiers drank was boiled for insurance. Now, let's boil it and see how the water reacts when it boils! ”

King Qingjun nodded, and asked the guards to move the stove where he made tea, and Mr. Mu filled a vessel with water and boiled it until it boiled.

"Poisoning is not something that happens overnight, it's the result of accumulation. Therefore, let's purify the water and make the poison content in the water deeper, so that the effect of the drug test can be more intuitive. ”

King Qingjun is a layman, so naturally he is what the doctor says. Jun Lan nodded when she heard this, and the water kept boiling for an hour, boiling a jar of water into half a jar of water.

After the water cooled, Mr. Mu caught the fish in the boiled water. Since the fish were like water, several people waited with bated breath, and after about a stick of incense, the originally lively goldfish became sluggish.

After another stick of incense, the goldfish slowly floated to the surface, and then another stick of incense, then rolled his eyes and remained motionless.

Jiang Jie and Jiang Zhi looked incredulous: "This water ...... This water is really poisonous! ”

Jun Lan thought thoughtfully: "Compared to Mr. Mu, our drug testing method is really too crude. ”

King Qingjun clapped his hands and applauded: "Miao Miao, the people who poisoned the people have ingenious ideas, and the people who tested the poison are as careful as hair, this trip to Xiyue really opened the eyes of this king." ”

Junlan, who came back to the taste, also wanted to applaud, and the person who poisoned her was really ingenious. Poison is a simple poison, but she has always thought about things complicated.

The detoxification method is simple, nothing more than a pot of ordinary soup. And what really damaged her and King Qingjun was the poison they carefully concocted. It is a three-point poison of the medicine, and the original antidote causes the poison in the body, which aggravates the original toxicity.

In the end, it was they themselves who had cornered themselves.

Junlan felt suddenly enlightened: "Does that gentleman have a way to detoxify?" ”

"Now that the cause of poisoning is known, it is not difficult to detoxify naturally. As long as the soldiers are allowed to drink a bowl of the soup I made today, with the antidote I developed, it will be fine in a few days. ”

King Qingjun was in a good mood and personally promised to give Mr. Mu a reward. In fact, it was his reward, but it was just a big move to give the gold and silver treasures of the Xiyue Palace to Mr. Mu.

Junlan laughed teasingly.

There was an antidote to the poison, and the soldiers regained their strength. But one problem was solved, and another problem followed, and that was the problem of eating.

Xi Yue's grain had already been transferred by King Xi Yue, and there was not much food brought in by the Qi army. Today, there is not much food left, and now I am really hungry.

Although there were still people in the city, the soldiers of the Qi State did not dare to act rashly, let alone snatch food.

One is because Zheng Ji explained that in the future, the people of Xiyue will be the people of Qi State, and the army of Qi State can only live to protect the people, and cannot do anything to oppress the people.

Second, it is also because Xi Yue people are too evil. If those people do something in the food, even if they grab the food, it will not help, and maybe they will experience the feeling of softness again.

Therefore, in addition to drinking some vegetable soup every day, the soldiers could only starve.

Only then did Zheng Ji feel what it means to be a good woman to cook without rice, even if he has a thousand skills, there is no way to fill the stomachs of the soldiers without food.

At first, the soldiers would also save their rations for the king of Qingjun and Junlan. King Qingjun couldn't refuse, so he sent all the food into Junlan's mouth.

But in the past few days, even Junlan, a girl, has nothing to eat!

The soldiers are in good health, drink some vegetable soup, and it will be fine for a short time.

But Junlan and King Qingjun were in too poor health because of the drug test, and the two who had just recovered from a serious illness had nothing to eat, and their bodies lost weight very quickly.

Fortunately, both of them are martial arts practitioners, although they can't fill their stomachs, but they have true qi and mutual bodies, so they won't hurt the roots.

Qin Ying looked indifferent: "No, I arrived in Pingcheng after I sent it, and I never went out." Until King Xiyue besieged the city and couldn't get out of the city, now, I heard that you are out of food, so I came over to see if I could help! ”

Jun Lan opened her mouth: "The Qin family's business has already been done, and Xi Yue is here?" ”

Qin Ying smiled and said nothing, in fact, it was not the Qin family's business, but his own business. After all, the Qin family is not only his heir, if Qin Nannan wants Qin Ting to be the head of the family, then wouldn't he make wedding clothes for others.

The Qin family in the Qi State has a deep foundation, and he can't make any small moves, but a lot of the business he expands in neighboring countries is in his hands, which can be regarded as his private property.

In the future, if Qin Ting is really the head of the family, he is not willing to wronged himself to do things for Qin Ting in the Qin family. It's better to give up the Qin family, with the connections he has accumulated over the years, it won't be much worse for a few years of operation.

Qin Ying didn't deny it, and Junlan took it as if he acquiesced to her statement.

"Then how does Young Master Qin plan to help us?"

Qin Ying's appearance in black clothes is less elegant than usual, and a little more neat and resolute. is inexplicably convincing, as if all the difficulties in front of him can be solved with him.

Qin Ying clasped his hands: "Since I entered Pingcheng, I have been buying grain, and now the warehouse is not much, but it is no problem to solve the urgent need." ”

Jun Lan was overjoyed and gave Qin Ying a deep salute: "The young master is really our timely rain, on behalf of all the soldiers of the expedition, I have thanked the young master!" ”

Qin Ying bowed his head: "I am a businessman, so naturally I will drill where it is beneficial, and besides, the eldest princess will hand over to me the food problem of the Southern Expeditionary Army, and I will naturally try my best to do a good job." Moreover, these grains are not provided for free, and I also ask Miss Junlan to make an IOU, and I will go back so that I can find the eldest princess to ask for money. ”

"That's as it should be!"

But there is such a thing as an IOU, Junlan can't call the shots, so she asked people to invite the king of Qingjun.

When King Qingjun heard that it was Miss Junlan who had been invited, he explained the matter at hand and followed the guards back to the palace.

Junlan told Qin Ying's affairs and thoughts to King Qingjun.

King Qingjun is introverted, even if he is happy, he is only a little excited in his heart, and his face is not obvious.

At the same time, he became interested in this businessman named Qin Ying.

If a businessman doesn't have a long-term vision, he knows Xi Yue's plan.

But he is the military food supplier appointed by Jiang Chuge, and it shouldn't be Xi Yue's side.

In this way, it is a long-term vision, perhaps not only a vision, but also a talent for the world. Zheng Ying looked at Qin Ying quietly and praised twice in his heart, such a person...... It's a pity that he's a businessman, and it's a good thing he's a businessman.

first had a good impression of three points, and when the two talked about business, it went much smoother. After the negotiation, Zheng Yu personally signed the IOU and handed it to Qin Ying, and after Qin Ying received the IOU, he said goodbye.

"Eating is a big deal, the food is ready, the prince of the county will send someone to get it, and the grass people will retire!"

"It's good!"

Junlan got up and sent Qin Ying out, and when she was about to go down the steps, Junlan said jokingly: "Don't worry, young master, after I go back this time, I will definitely speak for you in front of the princess!" ”

Qin Ying was stunned at his feet, almost fell down, calmed down, turned around and smiled gratefully at Junlan: "In this way, thank you Miss Junlan." ”

Junlan smiled teasingly and said goodbye to him.

After Qin Ying returned, the king of Qingjun sent people to his shop to transport grain in the evening.

Although Qin Ying is a person from the Qi State, but now the outcome is undecided, some things cannot be done too obviously, in case the Qi State is defeated at that time, Qin Ying's business is afraid that it will not be done!

With food, the soldiers finally had a full meal!

The capital, the palace.

After reading Zheng Ji's return letter, Jiang Chuge finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as he was about to rest, Forsythia reported outside the door: "Princess, Princess Qinghe is here, do you want to see her?" ”

Jiang Chuge raised his eyebrows: "Let her in!" ”

A few days ago, Beiyan's welcoming team arrived in Jinling, but they were empty-handed. Jiang Chuge didn't come forward, and directly asked the officials of the Ministry of Rites to refuse the envoys of Northern Yan.

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu said: "Qi is a great gift, and children need to have three media and six hires to get married, and it goes without saying that the matchmaker is needless to say, but this appointment, Beiyan really does not comply with the rules." There is an old saying in the Central Plains, hire as a wife, and run as a concubine.

Your two princes are asking to marry the princess of our country, and you are talking about a serious princess, but you don't give a dowry, so what does the eldest princess think. Since Beiyan is not sincere, then this marriage might as well be put aside first! ”

After that, he didn't give the Beiyan envoy a chance to explain, so he sent the person back to the post house. After that, no one asked to see him, Jiang Chuge simply took his illness, didn't even go to the court, and stayed in the inner palace all day long. Even if the envoys of Beiyan want to see it, they can't see it!

However, Su Lingqiao couldn't hold back, and came over every day to ask for a meeting, and under the banner of serving the sick, Jiang Chuge couldn't see it.

But she usually comes during the day, so why didn't she come in the middle of the night despite the taboo today.

Forsythia opened the curtain to welcome Su Lingdex in, only to see her dressed in a full costume and full of pearls, but she couldn't hide her haggard face.

She gave a faint salute: "I've seen the eldest princess!" ”

Jiang Chuge lazily leaned on the couch and raised his hand to her: "Qinghe doesn't have to be polite!" ”

When Su Lingqiao was enthroned, the princess written on the silk was not the eldest princess or the eldest princess. Her title is Qingzi, and she is only one generation with the county lord of Sophoran.

But she is Soufflan's sister-in-law, and she should be the same generation as the eldest princess Jingyi. But Ping Yao and they are all called Jiang Chuge's imperial sisters, and Su Lingqiao feels unwilling to surrender his identity to the same generation as Su Fulan. simply called Jiang Chuge the eldest princess, and Jiang Chuge also called her Qinghe, and no one was pretended to be polite to anyone.

Because Jiang Chuge knew that Su Lingqiao was dissatisfied with her, Su Lingqiao also knew that Jiang Chuge didn't like her.

"Isn't Junlan here? No wonder I don't think I saw her in a long time. I thought she was hiding in the house and researching medicinal herbs like she used to! ”

Jiang Chuge smiled: "There was something wrong with Xi Yue, and the military doctor couldn't deal with it, so the palace sent her to the southwest!" ”

Su Lingdexterity pretended to sigh: "It's really hard for a little girl to travel a long distance!" At her age, if she were an ordinary family, she would have children! ”
