Insulted
Mu Qingfeng didn't respond too much to Xue Lian'er's somewhat tasteful words, and now there is no way to dispel the dissatisfaction in Xue Lian'er's heart, in fact, the most important thing in front of him is whether Liu Liangchen can successfully find the antidote, if his senior brother fails, then things will really get out of control.
On the way back, Nangong Jinyu has been complaining to Liu Liangchen about Zhou Huo's recent actions, and it seems that he has the intention of being replaced, as for why he is looking for Liu Liangchen, the purpose is obvious, it is to make him his successor. In fact, Liu Liangchen didn't save Nangong Jinyu's face today out of kindness, in his opinion, he wanted to worm him, so he had to find a substitute ghost after the fact, otherwise once the incident happened, he who had no foundation just now must be the object of suspicion, but he didn't expect to be beaten by Xue Lian'er this time, not only let himself please Nangong Jinyu, but also snubbed Zhou Huo by the way, so that his scapegoat had a candidate.
"I said, General He, don't go to the barracks after you go back, how about drinking with me? It just so happens that I have something to explain to you, and from today onwards you will be my confidant, and you have to know a little bit about the grassland, so that there will be problems when the time comes. After arriving at the garrison of Nanyue Palace, Liu Liangchen originally planned to go back to rest, but was stopped by Nangong Jinyu.
"It's okay, anyway, my junior brother told me that I have to have a meeting tomorrow, and I have to find an antidote today anyway, it seems that this is a good opportunity." Liu Liangchen thought secretly.
The opportunity could not be missed, Liu Liangchen quickly agreed.
When he arrived at the main hall of the living room, Liu Liangchen found that there was only one table of food in the house, according to Nangong Jinyu's general virtue, there would be many dancing girls dancing on the side when he ate, and now the empty room showed that he did have something to discuss with himself.
"General He is here, come on, hurry up and take a seat, this is one of the few good wines in my house, although the wine in Yanwangfu is not bad, but it is too spicy for me, or our Nanyue Wangfu's 'Xiaoqingshi' is better, if you don't come, I'm afraid I'll have to drink it all by myself." Nangong Jinyu saw Liu Liangchen's arrival and hurriedly beckoned him to take a seat.
Liu Liangchen didn't shirk either, he sat directly on the seat and toasted Nangong Jinyu three times in a row, to be honest, this "little bluestone" tastes really good, but to put it bluntly, he still prefers Beiyan's spirits, so that he can feel like a man.
"General He, the Ming people don't say secret words, do you know the purpose of our coming here?" Nangong Jinyu, who was slightly drunk, asked.
"Isn't it for the sake of marrying the grassland? I heard that His Royal Highness the Prince can cure the plague of the grassland, then this matter must be handy, today I saw the princess of the grassland, although the temperament is a little spicy, but it is definitely the most beautiful woman I have ever seen, it seems that the pleasure of the princess's boudoir must be incomparable. Liu Liangchen pretended not to know, and said flatteringly.
"Haha! I didn't expect General He to be a fellow practitioner, but it's just a woman, and I can't be moved, what I care about is the power of the grassland, do you remember what I asked you to do? Nangong Jinyu asked the question she had asked.
"Of course I remember, the prince arranged for me to get rid of the disobedient grassland envoys, how dare I forget such a big event?" Liu Liangchen hurriedly said, hoping to come up with some other information.
"It's worthy of the person I fancy, Zhan Yu has such a good talent and doesn't know how to use it, he deserves to be unlucky! Let me tell you the truth, this plague is not a natural disaster at all, but a man-made disaster, which I caused it single-handedly! Nangong Jinyu told Liu Liangchen the truth of the matter and wanted to see his reaction.
Of course, Liu Liangchen knew about it, but he had to pretend to hear it for the first time, and directly broke the wine glass.
Nangong Jinyu was very satisfied with Liu Liangchen's reaction, in his opinion, this He San didn't know anything, so he asked with a smile: "General He is also a person who has experienced a hundred battles, why is he afraid of this thing?" ”
"Let the prince laugh, although I, He San, am not afraid of death, but I have also heard that a life with plague is better than death, if you are not careful, it will not be a big deal!" Liu Liangchen pretended to be panicked.
"Hahaha...... General He, don't worry, since I can release this plague, naturally I have a way to cure it, in fact, the so-called plague is just a Gu worm of the Hundred Foot Sect, this time I asked Zhou Huo to contact the people of the Hundred Foot Sect to create this plague that seems to be a natural disaster, in order to master the power of the grassland, so the general is not worried, even if he is accidentally bitten by a Gu worm, I also have an antidote here, come on, I will show the general what is poisoning the grassland. After speaking, Nangong Jinyu got up and took out a porcelain bottle from the cabinet behind her, which contained the same Gu worm in her arms.
Liu Liangchen was so smart that he knew that Nangong Jinyu must be uneasy and kind to take out such a thing at this time, so he asked: "Your Royal Highness, who do you want me to give this thing to now?" ”
"General He is really smart, talking to smart people is to save trouble, yes, I want you to give the poisonous insect to Zhan Yu that straw bag!" Nangong Jinyu's goal made Liu Liangchen a little puzzled, and it stands to reason that it should also be given to Mu Qingfeng.
"I think General He must be very puzzled, why don't you give my biggest enemy Mu Qingfeng Gu, it's very simple, he doesn't trust you, if you want to take Gu, you must be very close to him so as not to be accidentally injured, because this insect has a characteristic." Nangong Jinyu lowered her voice and slowly leaned over.
Liu Liangchen saw that this was not a godsend, so he directly reached into his arms and gently took out the porcelain bottle, silently begging God to bless him in his heart, don't give yourself a bite of this Gu worm. Fortunately, this Gu worm did not distinguish between friend and foe, and climbed directly down Nangong Jinyu's hem onto his body.
"This Gu worm is actually not as powerful as it thinks, every time it bites a person, it will die because the venom in its body is exhausted, so the general must be very close to the victim, I think Mu Qingfeng will not let you get close no matter what, so the straw bag Zhan Yu is the best choice, you can say that you are pretending to surrender to me, so as to obtain my information, I want to come to your former body as the commander of the guard, even if he has any doubts, he will summon you, general, do you understand what I mean?" Nangong Jinyu said with a sinister smile.
Watching the Gu worm bite Nangong Jinyu's neck hard, Nangong Jinyu should have noticed it, but because he had just drunk wine, he didn't feel very bright, so he didn't know it, and the Gu worm that finally vomited the venom was really the same as Nangong Jinyu said, kicked his legs and fell down. Liu Liangchen found an opportunity to pick it up directly with his hands, and destroy the corpse, anyway, there was a broken wine glass on the ground, and no one would suspect what he was leaning over.
"Understood, understood, it seems that there is one more person who asks for medicine from the world, so I'll set off!" Liu Liangchen took the porcelain vase in Nangong Jinyu's hand and smiled slightly.
"In this case, it will be a general, and when the war reputation is sick, it will be the time when the general becomes the commander." Nangong Jinyu patted Liu Liangchen's shoulder with satisfaction.
"His Royal Highness the Prince of Qiqi, Zhou Huo, the commander of the guards, asked to see him, saying that he had something important to meet, you see ......" The guard saw that Nangong Jinyu was drinking with Liu Liangchen, and said with some embarrassment.
In fact, Liu Liangchen wanted to inquire about other news here, but he knew the truth that he was too late, and now was the best time for him to win his trust, and it was better for him to avoid suspicion.
"His Royal Highness, since Commander Zhou is looking for someone to discuss with you, I will go and prepare for the Gu matter." Liu Liangchen saluted Nangong Jinyu who was on the throne and got up to leave.
Nangong Jinyu likes this He San more and more, she doesn't ask about other things, just focuses on the things in front of her, thinking that such a talent is about to fall into her hands, Nangong Jinyu doesn't know how happy she is. But his happy mood didn't last long before he was dispersed by Zhou Huo who came in.
"What's the matter, tell me quickly!" Fools can hear the snubbing in Nangong Jinyu's words.
"His Royal Highness, the lowly post came to ask, aren't we still going to play tricks on others, when will we do it." Zhou Huo didn't care about Nangong Jinyu's attitude at all, but this kind of appearance that was neither humble nor arrogant really made him angry.
"You don't have to worry about it, I've already arranged for someone else to do it, you still honestly guard the antidote, you don't have to worry about this kind of thing in the future." Nangong Jinyu drank the wine by herself, and she didn't mean to let Zhou Huo sit down.
"Shizi, this Gu worm is the secret of our Hundred Foot Sect, but it is the hard work of the Poison Sect, how can Shizi pretend to be with the hands of others!" No matter how good Zhou Huo's temper is, he can't hold it anymore.
"Presumptuous! Who do you talk to like that? Do you know who you are? If my father hadn't taken you and the palace in pity back then, you would have starved to death on the streets! How dare you question my arrangement, don't you want to stay here? Nangong Jinyu directly threw the cup in his hand to the ground, and under the effect of the wine, he finally broke out.
"But His Royal Highness, if this Gu worm falls outside, it will be a bad thing, if it is discovered by someone with a heart, the consequences are unimaginable, or I will come......" Zhou Huo didn't finish speaking, because he was blinded by a slap from Nangong Jinyu.
"Didn't you just carry Gu worms with you? What other surprises?! Is it that you can't trust anyone else except your own son! How? If you're not convinced, you can play Gu on me now, isn't this a useful method for you Baizu Sect to treat people who don't like it! Nangong Jinyu was also dizzy, and she didn't choose what to say, in fact, in addition to the wine strength accident, Xue Lian'er's arrow today also has a lot to do with it.
Zhou Huo lowered his head and didn't speak, there was some hatred in his eyes, as one of the four envoys of the Hundred Foot Sect, how could he have been insulted like this, but the person in front of him made himself unable to do it, he was really dumb and couldn't say it.
"Don't go down to Gu? Don't dare to go down yet? If you don't have the guts, get out! I don't want to see you again for a while! Nangong Jinyu gave an eviction order.
