Chapter 6 This is the price
Lanxi Pavilion is the most exquisite pavilion of the Wolf Howling Organization here, not only has an independent courtyard, but also the decorations in the garden are selected by thousands of selections, and careful planning has been made, no matter whether there are distinguished guests living here, there will be people to come to clean.
Naturally, the furnishings in the house are also very exquisite. Compared to Ling Chen's house, it was more elaborate and luxurious, using more luxurious golden yellow and some red.
Han Qingxue and Ling Chen sat down, and the next person came up for refreshments according to the rules and retreated. On the white jade table, there are three-colored jade plates, one containing cherry tomatoes from the far north, bright red, the other containing dried squid made by a special method from the seaside, and the other plate is a very ordinary osmanthus cake. In addition, there is a celadon teacup in front of each of them, although the lid has not been opened, but the smell of strong fragrance has wafted out, it seems that this tea is not ordinary.
Han Qingxue pinched the tea lid in her hand, but did not open it, she looked at the plate on the table that was very familiar, familiar and had been imprinted into the depths of her heart, in the strong fragrance of tea, she could distinguish the fragrance that belonged to the osmanthus cake, a wisp of fragrance that had accompanied her for many years and gave her many good memories.
"This is the best snow lotus tea in Southern Liao, it's hard to buy, Miss Han might as well taste one or two." Ling Chenwen said with a smile, as if he hadn't noticed her gaffe. After speaking, he picked up the celadon tea bowl and tasted it, and his satisfied expression fell in Han Qingxue's eyes, but it was a different look.
Han Qingxue smiled back, this tea is poison, and she can't avoid it, and although the person in front of her can't figure out what to think, he has no ill will towards himself, at least on the surface, but this is also what worries Han Qingxue the most.
She politely picked up the celadon tea bowl and took a sip. It is cold with a faint sweet taste, and it seems to have a strong calming effect, but just such a small sip makes his anxiety a little smaller.
"How?" Ling Chen put down the celadon teacup in his hand and asked.
Han Qingxue thinks that she has been in the palace for three years, although she is not free, but she has seen and tasted a lot of all kinds of delicious delicacies, rare and exotic things, although the taste of this snow lotus tea is not the best, but the aftertaste is addictive.
"Good tea." Han Qingxue praised from the bottom of her heart.
"If you like it, it's fine." Ling Chenwen looked at her with a smile, his brown eyes couldn't see any emotion.
Han Qingxue smiled and didn't answer. While sipping tea, she looked at Ling Chen, and happened to catch a sly light flashing in her brown eyes, as if she was calculating something.
Her heart tightened, what she should have come had finally come, and she didn't know what benefits this Ling Chen envoy wanted to get by treating her like this.
Just then, there was a knock at the door. "Knock knock."
Han Qingxue was depressed, why did she come to knock on the door at this time. Turning his head, he saw that Ling Chen didn't mean to respond. She had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "What's going on outside the door?" ”
"Hello Miss Han, is Special Envoy Ling here? There is something to report to the subordinates. Listening to the voice, it seems to be the altar master Guo Ying.
Han Qingxue looked at Ling Chen, only to see him nodding. He replied, "Yes." I wondered in my heart, Ling Chen was sitting here, why didn't he answer. She really didn't know this reason, this regulation was just circulating within the Wolf Howling Organization.
"Miss Han, can my subordinates ask Special Envoy Ling to come out and speak?" Guo Cheng outside the door asked for instructions.
What the hell does this concern her? Han Qingxue looked at Ling Chen suspiciously.
Ling Chen gently explained with a smile: "Our organization has a rule that if you are talking to a distinguished guest, you must not leave easily, and you must ask for your consent to show respect. ”
I see. Han Qingxue was a little curious about what kind of organization this was, the person who broke his sword just now was very good, and it can be seen from this article that this organization is relatively formal, and it is likely to belong to a certain force.
Now, she is even more curious about what is worth using for such an organization, is it because of her father?
No, if this matter is not clarified, she is not at ease, so she replied directly: "Special Envoy Ling and I have important matters to discuss, and when this matter is completed, let Special Envoy Ling leave." "Anyway, the Wolf Howling Organization has such a rule, and she is not afraid of offending anyone, and she is not afraid of wearing shoes with bare feet, she is now a wanted criminal in the imperial court.
After a while, there was a response outside the door, "Yes." And he withdrew.
Silence returned to the room, with the occasional sound of tea bowls clashing against tea cups.
It took about a stick of incense.
Han Qingxue asked calmly: "If there is anything that Special Envoy Ling asks me to do, I will pick out and say it bluntly, it is really not the work of a gentleman Lei Lei to try it like this." ”
Ling Chen smiled, put down the teacup in his hand, and said, "Miss Han, she is really a smart person...... Then I'll say it directly, otherwise it's not even as good as Miss Han. Ling Chen paused for a moment and said solemnly: "Actually, this time I came to Miss Han to test the medicine for the master. ”
"Test?" I thought about it for a long time, but I didn't think it was the reason. Han Qingxue thought for a while, played with the teacup and said: "I'm afraid this is false, there are so many people in the world, why do you have to find a wanted criminal in the court to try." Could it be ......" she curled the corners of her mouth and smiled, "Your organization stipulates that the person who tests this medicine must be a wanted criminal of the imperial court?" ”
Miss Han laughed. Ling Chen said with a hint of sadness on his face: "This medicine is not an ordinary medicine, it is a pure cold nature, you must try it with a pure yin body, otherwise you won't be able to see the effect of the medicine, I don't have to say the appearance of the pure yin body, Miss Han naturally knows." ”
Pure Yin Body? This...... Han Qingxue naturally knew that this pure yin body was an extremely difficult physique, and it usually affected the biological mother, even if many of them did not live to be twenty years old, they would age due to the imbalance of yin and yang, and eventually die.
Could it really be that he has such a terrible constitution? Han Qingxue was stunned for a moment, but her mother did die of childbirth when she gave birth to herself. This incident has always been my father's regret and my own regret. Thinking of her mother who she had never seen once, her father who was thrown in prison, and her ruthless brother whose life and death were uncertain, Han Qingxue felt that her eyes were sour, and something was about to flow out.
However, now is not the time, she must be strong, the nurse cannot die in vain, and she must also rescue her father, find her unrelated brother, and avenge the revenge of the family.
You can't do this on your own, you have to rely on others. Therefore, this test of medicine, whether it is false or true, as long as this Ling envoy asks for something, then she can put forward her own request, and if she can't agree, forget it, she can try.
At that moment, Han Qingxue made up her mind, looked at Ling Chen and said, "I am willing." ”
Ling Chen said with a smile: "Miss Han is really happy, I don't say dark words, the process of testing the medicine may be a little painful, but for Miss Han, there are many benefits, and it is not in vain to do things for our wolf howling organization." ”
This slippery head. Han Qingxue scolded secretly, and said with a smile on her face: "This Ling envoy is wrong, the test medicine is also dangerous in any way, I also have to ask for some benefits, right?" ”
Ling Chen was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect this Han Qingxue to change quickly, it turned out that he had always been close to people, but he would look like a businessman talking about business. However, he didn't care much about it, the benefits or something, the promise was that Ouyang Heiyao had already explained it anyway.
It's just that she cooperates with herself, and everything is fine. This theory of testing medicine is the method he thought of in his own room, and when he saw Han Qingxue's indomitable sword momentum, he could already confirm ninety-nine percent that this method worked.
Through his observation, although this Han Qingxue is not very old, she has a stubborn personality, some intelligence, and a heavy mind, but her nature is pure. This is where he can take advantage of it, and if he is so focused that he can't say high-sounding words, or after rescuing loyal ministers, etc., he can only explain it with the theory of interests, but he doesn't have doubts. has a pure nature, and must be concerned about his own father and the ruthless brother who is on his lips, and he can sacrifice himself for them.
It turned out that he was not wrong in his guess, but among the benefits she wanted was definitely to rescue General Han. That person, he asked Ouyang Heiyao two days ago, and Ouyang Heiyao told him that General Han's lifespan had come to an end, and it was impossible to escape this catastrophe.
Thinking of this, Ling Chen said directly: "The benefits are naturally indispensable, but ......" He looked at Han Qingxue, who was slightly nervous, and said: "My father is locked up in the heavenly prison, which is heavily guarded, and there are the most brave warriors and the most dangerous organs of the Hua Dynasty, and I can't do anything about it." Seeing Han Qingxue's lost appearance, he was a little unbearable, so he said: "You always like to shout ruthlessly, but my brother can help you inquire about the news." ”
Han Qingxue nodded to him: "Then there is an envoy of Lao Ling." "Indescribable sadness in his eyes.
Ling Chen couldn't comfort him, this person's death was destined by God, even he couldn't do anything about it. After being silent for a while, he remembered that Guo Cheng still had something to find him, so he said, "Miss Han, I'll come to test the medicine at this time tomorrow, okay?" ”
"Okay." Han Qingxue nodded.
"If there's nothing to do, I'll go out and do something." Ling Chen said.
"Hmm." Han Qingxue lowered her head and responded. Seeing his expression, Ling Chen sighed, he had experienced a lot of parting from life and death, and he didn't say anything, so he got up and left to see what Guo Cheng had to tell him, according to his guess, it was probably something related to the Han family, but this news came quickly, maybe, not necessarily, maybe it was the master's side.
Sent Ling Chen away. Han Qingxue sat there in a daze, tears falling on the white jade table one by one, she didn't think that the mean, unkind, suspicious usurper emperor would kindly let her father go, without a glimmer of hope, without ......
She couldn't see her father anymore, and she didn't even have a chance to give him a ride and collect his body for burial. Although her father didn't spend much time with her, and was even quite strict, when her father did well in his schoolwork, he would put himself on his lap and tell those bloody legends; He would also touch his head lovingly, saying that he had grown taller and more beautiful; When he is disobedient, he will also scold himself harshly.
……
"Father." Han Qingxue muttered, her eyes full of tears, and she looked at the plate of osmanthus cake on the table in a daze.
