Chapter 216: The Temptation of Dongfang Rain
The Shizi side has just been arranged, here is a letter from Mingchun, and the Dongfang family on the Lingnan side has sent medicinal herbs over, and their young lady Dongfang Yu has handed over the post and asked her to meet tomorrow.
Dongfang Yu has been in the capital for many days before making an appointment, thinking that he is waiting for her convoy to arrive. Xiao Ruyu took the post and hooked her lips and chuckled, "It's getting more and more interesting." ”
"Mingchun, if you are wronged tomorrow, I will meet her instead of you, this Dongfang Yu is not a simple character, you will show flaws if you face it directly."
"Yes, Miss." Ming Chun promised, as long as the eldest lady didn't make him into a broken sleeve, he was still willing to let the eldest lady stand up for him.
The next day, Xiao Ruyu dressed up as Ming Chun and took Ding Fang and a few of his men to Wangjiang Tower to see Dongfang Yu, their convoy was stationed there, and sure enough, they were rich and rich, and as soon as they arrived in the capital, they chartered the entire backyard of Wangjiang Tower.
"I've seen Miss Dongfang." Xiao Ruyu clenched her fists, at this time she was dressed in a white robe, her demeanor was dashing, her eyebrows and eyes were smiling, and she was very polite and polite.
Dongfang Yu was wearing a brocade skirt with white rolling blue edges, with a white veil decorated with pearls, and a jasper hairpin was simply inserted on her head, which was very refreshing and atmospheric. Watching Xiao Ruyu give a salute and she did not hurry back, although she was through the veil, she could feel her eyes smiling and her demeanor elegant and generous, which made people feel like a spring breeze.
"Shopkeeper Ming is so polite, please take a seat." As he spoke, he turned back and ordered the girl named Agarwood to go to tea.
The two sat down, and Xiao Ruyu spoke first, "Miss Dongfang came to Beijing thousands of miles this time, it's really hard, do you see that Ming is discussing medicinal materials?" As he spoke, he took out the original contract from his sleeve and patted it, "We said that the three months, you are a little overdue." ”
Dongfang Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a faint bewitching look in his eyes: "Ming shopkeeper, it's not been more than a few days, can you not be punished?" "It was clearly written in the original contract that if the goods were not delivered on time, they would be fined.
"Huh." Xiao Ruyu put away the contract, "It's been delayed for almost a month, it's not more than a few days, Miss Dongfang's concept of time is really jaw-dropping." As she spoke, she crossed her legs and drank tea.
"Shopkeeper Ming, there is a reason why we are late, if it weren't for the robbers who robbed our young lady and got poisoned, it wouldn't have been delayed for so long, hum." Agarwood said angrily on the side, it seemed that she was explaining the reason for their late arrival.
"Oh? Someone is robbing you on the road? Xiao Ruyu felt a little surprised, this robber is so strange, is it to rob money or sex, or is it a trick directed and acted by Dongfang Yu.
"Why, we can't lie to you." Seeing that Xiao Ruyu didn't believe Agarwood and stomped her feet in a hurry, "Really, our young lady was almost snatched away, but fortunately I met someone from the Qi Palace." ”
"Agarwood, shut up." Dongfang Yu seemed to block her from letting her speak again, but everything that should be said was said, what was the use of blocking it.
"Since there is a reason for the incident, we will not pursue it so unreasonably, let's talk to the general below, this bit of face is still there." Xiao Ruyu said.
"However, Miss Dongfang's poison is fine, why don't you take a look at it and get some medical knowledge in it." Xiao Ruyu said politely.
"Then it's a trouble for the shopkeeper." Unexpectedly, Dongfang Yu hit the snake with the stick, and really stretched out his right hand to let her take the pulse.
Xiao Ruyu asked someone to take a handkerchief and put it on her snow-white wrist, reaching out to check the pulse. In ancient times, it was said that men and women could not kiss, she must be careful, don't bring peach blossoms to Mingchun.
I don't know if Dongfang Yu intentionally or unintentionally, the handkerchief suddenly fell to the side, and Xiao Ruyu's fingers pressed directly on her snow-white skin without any accident. Xiao Ruyu didn't move, Dongfang Yuxiu's eyebrows frowned slightly and didn't move again.
Judging from her pulse, she was indeed poisoned, and this poison was relatively rare. She had been blindfolded and couldn't see her face clearly, but now that she got closer, she found that her eyes were a little red, and her spirit was not very good.
Although the poison in her is strange, she should use the antidote holy product, otherwise she would have been a dead person by now. However, the antidote that may be used is not particularly symptomatic, so some residual poisons have not been removed.
"Some residual poison in your body has not been cleared, and your body is a little weak due to blood loss, but unfortunately you don't have any research on poisons, otherwise you can help some." Xiao Ruyu withdrew her hand and said.
"The shopkeeper Ming is really powerful." Agarwood clapped her hands on the side, Xiao Ruyu smiled indifferently, "I'm just good at dealing with some general diseases, what's so powerful." ”
"The shopkeeper Ming has not studied poison much, and he can still see that there is still poison in my body, it seems that his medical skills are very good." Dongfang Yu said suddenly. "Then the shopkeeper of Yiming will see what I should do to remove the remaining poison."
Xiao Ruyu sounded the alarm bell in his heart, but with a slight surprise on his face, with a very sincere voice: "It's a pity that there is not much research in this area, but I have a master who is good at this, he has left a few antidote pills at the beginning, the detoxification effect is good, wait for me to go back and send a pill for you to try, but unfortunately I don't have much in my hand, I can only take out one, there is really no way, but there are many famous doctors in the capital, you can inquire more, Ao, by the way, the medical skills of the Xia Chuyang son of the Guangning Hou family should be good, you can ask him to take a look." ”
"Oh? I didn't expect that the shopkeeper Ming still has such a powerful uncle, can you find this uncle to help take a look? Dongfang Yu asked with a smile. It seems that she is not very interested in that Xia Chuyang, but she is more interested in this uncle.
"Gee, that's not easy." Xiao Ruyu paused deliberately, full of embarrassment, "My master and uncle disappeared a few years ago, and I haven't found it after looking for my master for a long time, which is really worrying." ”
"I don't know where the shopkeeper is?" Dongfang Yu's expression was a little disappointed.
"There are strict rules in the lower division, and you can't announce it, but what you can tell the young lady is that it is related to the snow mountain in the lower division." This is what Ming Chun told Xiao Ruyu, and Xiao Ruyu casually used it to fool Dongfang Yu. There are people in the rivers and lakes who say that there is a snow-capped mountain doctor who is very powerful, I don't know if it is Mingchun's master. Xiao Ruyu once heard the master of the rivers and lakes who had eaten the immortal drunk in the Shura Hall mentioned this miracle doctor, this person's personality is very weird, and it all depends on the mood to cure the disease and save people. He did him a great favor before he asked him to help detoxify, but unfortunately this person said that immortal drunkenness is not poison, and he can't solve it.
Dongfang Yu was slightly stunned, he didn't expect that an ordinary shopkeeper in front of him would have something to do with the Snow Mountain Divine Doctor, this is not easy to do, everyone in the rivers and lakes knows that this Snow Mountain Divine Doctor has a quirk and cannot be easily offended, if this is really his disciple, they have to deal with it carefully.
"Then don't you give our lady a few more of your antidote pills." Agarwood interjected dissatisfiedly on the side, what a snow mountain, what a teacher, it's just this person's excuse, he doesn't want to help the young lady at all.
Dongfang Yu's eyes lit up when he heard her words, staring at Xiao Ruyu and asking eagerly, "Is it okay, just a few grains." ”
"This ,......" Xiao Ruyu was embarrassed, "At the beginning, the master only left five grains, and three grains have been used, but now there are only two grains in his hands, these two grains are used to save his life, and he can only give one to the young lady." It's a pity that I am stupid, and I haven't developed this kind of pill for so many years, and if I research it, I can give a few more pills. He let out a long sigh.
"Alas, why are you so stingy, aren't you just two broken pills, what about giving them to our young lady for your baby?" Agarwood said proudly with a high chin on the side. That means that it seems that Xiao Ruyu is her honor to give the pill to their young lady.
Xiao Ruyu raised her eyes and looked at her, and sneered, "Why, in the eyes of Miss Dongfang's maid, the life-saving antidote pill of Uncle Xia turned out to be a broken pill, since it is a broken pill, how can I be embarrassed to give it to Miss Dongfang." ”
"Agarwood, shut up. Hurry up and apologize to the shopkeeper Ming. Dongfang Yu scolded the agarwood, although the performance of this agarwood is good, and the interjection is also on point, but it is not easy to say if Mingchun catches the following words.
"Yes, miss." Agarwood replied with an aggrieved pout. After speaking, Chong Xiao bowed down like rain, "Please forgive the shopkeeper Ming in large quantities." The tone was a little unwilling, his eyes kept drifting, and there was no sincerity at all.
Xiao Ruyu didn't bother to pay attention to her, seeing that the time was not early, she discussed with Dongfang Yu how to hand over those medicinal materials, and then got up to say goodbye.
After seeing her leave, Dongfang Yu stared at her figure and considered the truth of her words, and finally decided to wait for him to send the antidote pill.
Coming out of Wangjiang Tower, Xiao Ruyu looked solemn. Could it be that someone is starting to suspect Mingchun, this is bad, she must have caused trouble for Mingchun, if she can't do it, she has to go back and explain it well, be sure to let Mingchun be careful, and arrange someone to protect him, but don't be hurt because of her.
