Chapter 26: The Duan Family

When Zhilan hurried to Si's house, Zhuang Shuiqin was teaching the maid who had made a mistake in the house.

"You, you dare to splash my tea on my clothes, do you know that this skirt is specially customized by the eldest lady to the most famous tailor in King Zhou's mansion, can you afford it!"

"Smack! Syllable! ”

Two big slaps slapped on the maid's face, and immediately slapped her out directly, a face was red and swollen, and blood flowed down her nose, but she didn't dare to wipe it, so she got up and began to kowtow, begging for mercy: "The slave didn't mean it, Mrs. spare, Mrs. spare!" ”

"Wet my clothes and be embarrassed to beg for mercy? Come on, drag her down, sell her to the lowest kiln on the outskirts of the city, and be tortured to death by men! Zhuang Shuiqin commanded sharply.

"Don't, don't!"

The maid sat on the ground in despair and cried, but she could only be dragged away alive by the strong man who rushed up.

This scene happened to be bumped into by Zhilan, her face turned pale, and she was frightened and shocked in her heart, since Si Meng married King Zhou, Zhuang Daiqing sat firmly on the throne of the queen, and the Si family has become a first-class family, Zhuang Shuiqin's temper is getting bigger and bigger, and it is common to beat the maid to death.

If you wet your master's clothes, you will be bought for a kiln, and if you commit a greater sin, you don't know how to punish them......

"Zhilan?" Only then did Zhuang Shuiqin see Zhilan standing at the door, hurriedly beckoned her in, turned her face and commanded her subordinates: "Are you all blind?" Don't serve tea to Miss Zhilan! ”

It is said that a person has ascended to heaven, and now Si Meng is the princess of Zhou, even her mother has to be respectful to her, and the maids around her naturally can't be lazy.

Zhilan retracted her thoughts, entered the room and sat down, and said with a smile: "Old lady, I came today to help Miss bring a message." ”

"Dreams?" Zhuang Shuiqin's eyes rolled and asked tentatively: "But what flaw happened on the prince's side, allowing the lord to take the opportunity to impeach in the court?" ”

Among today's Liang princes, King Wen Tao of Zhou, who has the talent to govern the country, is the most favored by the emperor, but unfortunately there is someone else in the position of the prince.

Although the king of Zhou is the biological son of the queen Zhuang Daiqing, but the current prince is the child of the late wife of the emperor Fu Hong, the emperor remembered the old love, and always hoped that the prince could inherit the unification, but this blocked the way of the king of Zhou, so the Zhuang family and the Si family united, and the prince must be overthrown, so that the emperor can set up the king of Zhou as the prince!

However, that's not what Zhilan wants to talk about today.

She shook her head, looked left and right, and confirmed that Zhuang Shuiqin had sent all the extra subordinates away, before she whispered, "Miss asked me to tell the old lady...... Sinan is back. ”

Hearing this, Zhuang Shuiqin's eyes widened in shock, she couldn't believe her ears, she said excitedly: "What? Didn't that slut be taken away by Prince Xiahou back then? She is the enemy of Prince Xiahou, how can she come out alive under his hands! ”

Laneige's expression was solemn, "This, the princess has no way of knowing, but the princess asked me to tell the old lady not to panic, just tell the emperor about this matter, with her identity as giving birth to an ominous fetus, even if we don't do it, the emperor can't tolerate her!" ”

Zhuang Shuiqin's eyes lit up, and he suddenly patted his thigh, "That's right, it's still Meng'er smart, as long as the emperor knows about this, Sinan won't want to get out of this Kyoto City alive!" ”

Zhuang Shuiqin has been in Si's house for many years, and she thinks that she knows Sinan no better, and she must have come back this time to take revenge, but this slut is as ignorant as her mother, and a waste who can't cultivate also wants to fight with her and Si Meng, isn't it looking for death?

"I'll go into the palace now and tell the queen, you can go back and let Meng'er wait at home, you can't let her interfere in this matter, otherwise King Zhou will suspect that Si Meng could deliberately Si Nan back then, intending to destroy the marriage contract."

Si Meng's image in front of King Zhou has always been gentle and lovely, empathetic, if King Zhou finds out that Si Meng and her are the murderers who framed Si Nan and conceived wild seeds, it is difficult to guarantee that King Zhou will not be prejudiced against Si Meng, Zhuang Shuiqin can't risk his daughter's happiness, so it's better for her to do this wicked person.

"Yes!"

Zhuang Shuiqin's cold eyes reflected a vicious light, no matter what happened this time, she would let Sinan die in her hands!

……

In the past three years, although Sinan has been cultivating in Mishan, he is also well aware of the situation in Daliang.

There are five major families in Kyoto, namely the Zhuang family headed by the queen, the Si family headed by the Prime Minister's Carrier, the Duan family headed by the national teacher Duan Qirui, the Bai family headed by the general Bai Xin, and the Nalan family, but because the Nalan family is in the middle of the road, there are only four major families left in Kyoto today.

The Zhuang family and the Si family are related, the various interests of the two families are tied together, and Zhuang Daiqing is the queen, and the Si carrier is the prime minister, and the status of the court can be imagined, so no one in the whole of Kyoto wants to offend the people of these two families.

But where there are interests, there are conflicts, not to mention the court of open and secret fighting, among the four major families, the Bai family is the rival of the Si family and the Zhuang family, and the Bai family is the representative of the children of the Liang Han family, and the Si family and the Zhuang family who advocate the monopoly of the gate valve family are in conflict of interest.

The two sides have been fighting openly and secretly for many years, and the Bai family's side has always been at a disadvantage, they want to form an alliance with the Duan family, but the Duan family upholds neutrality and neither side expresses its position.

If the Bai family and the Duan family are united, will Si Meng and Zhuang Shuiqin be so angry that their noses will smoke?

Sinan raised his eyes and looked at the door of the Duan family, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a sneer.

The Duan family's guards hurriedly stopped her after seeing the veiled Sinan appear, blocking her way, and asked, "Who are you?" The National Teacher's Mansion is not a place where ordinary people can come and go at will, leave quickly! ”

Si Nan raised his eyebrows slightly, the corners of his mouth smiled charmingly, and said lightly: "Tell the National Teacher, I can save the life of Third Young Master Duan." ”

The guard was slightly stunned, it stands to reason that he wants to tie up with the national teacher, and he doesn't know how many people he wants to drive out every day that he lied that he is a miracle doctor, and the girl in front of him is obviously not very old, and every word he says seems to have weight, and he can't say why, so he feels that there is a kind of power that wants to be convinced for no reason.

Just as the guard was wondering, something flew into the air and landed right in his hand.

He looked down and couldn't help but gasp, it was a well-made token, with various precious herbal samples carved on the rosewood, and the three big characters "Baicaotang" were written in the middle.

"This is the Apothecary Token of Baicaotang, you should know what this represents, right?" Sinan raised her eyebrows and smiled, she knew that it would definitely be inconvenient to act in Kyoto with her current identity, so she had just asked Zhu Chen for this token.

The guard bowed respectfully to Si Nan, swept away the contemptuous and suspicious attitude just now, and said respectfully: "This girl, please come in with me and wait for a while, I will inform the National Teacher immediately!" ”

Baicaodo is a special medicine hall for the royal medicine in Kyoto, and the pharmacist token of Baicaodo is a pass token that only the imperial doctor can have, with this thing, you can receive medicinal materials at will in Baicaodo without spending a penny, this is a kind of certification for the divine doctor, so he has no doubt that what the girl in front of him said is true.

Duan's family.

On the top of the hall, a young man in his early twenties sat on a chair, his delicate face was faintly pale, his purple lips pursed slightly, and he paused for a while before he said slowly: "Father, forget it, I've been sick for so long, how can it be so easy to be cured." ”

This young man is Duan Chen, the third young master of the Duan family, he smiled weakly, but his eyes were very calm, as if this life and death had nothing to do with him, but comforted his father.

Looking at his child's weak appearance, Duan Qirui felt uncomfortable, looked at the old man standing aside again, and said in a deep voice: "Imperial Doctor Li, is there really no way to do Chen'er's illness?" ”

Imperial Physician Li shook his head and sighed and said, "Please also ask the National Teacher to forgive me, my medical skills are shallow, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to cure the third young master's illness by relying only on medicinal materials, unless I ......"

"Unless anything!" Duan Qirui's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly grabbed Imperial Doctor Li's hand and asked, even a glimmer of hope he didn't want to let go.

"Unless you can take the crystal nucleus of the spirit beast, or the healing pill is fine, but ...... Alas. Imperial Physician Li shook his head, patted Duan Qirui's hand and said, "Master Guoshi, you better give up." ”

The spirit beast is a spiritual creature that absorbs the spiritual qi of heaven and earth, not to mention that it is extremely difficult to encounter, even if it is encountered, it is difficult to catch it with Duan Qirui's current cultivation, and he took out the crystal nucleus that grew in the belly of the spirit beast.

And the treatment of the pill is even more difficult, even the royal is hard to find, where can they find the alchemist?

Sending away Imperial Physician Li, the more Duan Qirui thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became, did he want to watch his child die?

"Damn!" The National Teacher burst into foul language, and his tightened fist smashed a crack in the tabletop, and he said fiercely: "If it weren't for the Bai family shooting poisoned arrows at you during the garden hunting that year, how could you have been poisoned by this extremely cold poison!" ”

Five years ago, the royal garden hunt was held, and all major families participated, and at that time, Duan Qirui's eldest son and second son were training outside, so he wanted to take Duan Chen to play, but he didn't expect an arrow to fly sideways, and the symbol on the arrow feather was the Bai family!

Since then, Duan Chen's health has become worse and worse, and this is also the reason why Duan Qirui does not ally with the Bai family.

"Father, although the arrow was fired by the Bai family, it doesn't mean that it was shot by the Bai family." Duan Chen sighed, "Now that the Zhuang family and the Si family are rampant, and the power of the King of Zhou is getting bigger and bigger, although we are neutral, but if this continues, sooner or later they will point the finger at the Duan family, and now there is only an alliance with ......the Bai family."

"Don't even think about it!" Duan Qirui snorted coldly, the anger in his eyes became stronger and stronger, "The Bai family has caused you to be highly poisonous, and your life is in danger, and you still want me to form an alliance with them?" I just want to watch the Bai family be wiped out by the Zhuang and Si families, so that I can solve the hatred in my heart! ”

"Father." Duan Chen's good-looking brows furrowed, he shook his head disapprovingly, and said helplessly: "Lips and teeth are cold......

His father is a far-sighted national teacher, how many wins with less, and the victory of the weak against the strong comes from his hands, why can't he get out of the horns of the bull in this!

At this moment, a guard came in a hurry, saluted the two respectfully, and said eagerly: "There is a girl outside the mansion who said that there is a way to cure the third young master's illness!" ”
