Chapter 41: Strange Things

"Why?"

Shen Luo sighed and said: "Lord Wang, Sanniang's physique is different from ordinary people, her blood can cure all kinds of poisons, and she inadvertently got the ancient artifact Xuanwu pendant, and when the two are combined, it has the miraculous effect of curing the world's Gu poisons." However, Sanniang used her physical body to fight against the evil demon Gu poison, and every time she detoxified, her vitality would be greatly damaged, and she would have to cultivate for a long time to get better. Therefore, unless it is absolutely necessary, Sanniang will not easily help people to solve Gu poison. ā€

Li Yu looked at the sleeping little lady on the bed and pursed her lips, a little displeased.

When Shen Yining woke up, he only felt warm and comfortable. The bedding and mattress covered on the body are all fine Shu brocade silk, soft and gentle. Next to the bed, there is a delicate ceramic stove, which is burning with Rui carbon, which is a good coal tribute from the Xiliang Kingdom, and the room is filled with a faint aroma of white sandalwood. It is said that when the aristocracy burned charcoal, they would spread white sandalwood under the stove to hide the bitter and ugly smell of the coal itself. It is worthy of the palace of the king of Qi, and the food and clothing are all superior and exquisite.

A woman's hearty voice sounded in her ears: "Shen Niangzi, are you awake, do you want to drink some water or eat something?" ā€

It was an elderly woman, well-dressed and elegant, who seemed to be a prestigious person in the house.

"Lady is?" She sat up and rubbed her stiff and sour back, as if she had been asleep for a long time.

The woman smiled, gentle and kind: "Shen Niangzi, the slave maid is the second housekeeper in the palace, you can call me Qiu Porcelain." ā€

"Aunt Qiuci, I—I'm a little hungry."

Qiu Ci hid his face and smiled, and immediately called for a few plates of hot food and soup.

Shen Yining was so hungry that she saw Aunt Qiu Ci still standing aside, and smiled embarrassedly: "Aunt Qiu Ci, can we eat together?" ā€

"Shen Niangzi, the slave has already used it. If you don't feel comfortable, just wait outside. Also, the prince has been here several times, and the prince has told you that if you have any needs, you can go to the prince. Aunt Qiu Ci smiled with a smile on her face, and after speaking, she withdrew very knowingly.

She was a little puzzled, but looking at the table full of delicacies, all the troubles were left behind, and she ate it in a big gulp, abalone and matsutake mushroom porridge, ginseng chicken soup, wolfberry red dates, ginger and green onion steamed sea bass, and dessert cherry crisp, which was really satisfying!

After eating and drinking, she wanted to take a look at Yue Heng's body, and as soon as she pushed the door open, she saw that he was already guarding the door.

"Yue, Yueheng?"

When Yue Heng saw her go out of the room, he immediately knelt down on his knees and clenched his hands into fists: "Thank you Shen Niangzi for saving your life, from now on, Yue Heng will be Shen Niangzi's personal guard, and she will protect Shen Niangzi's safety." ā€

She was confused, and hurriedly pulled him up: "You, you, you get up for me first, I don't need your protection." ā€

"If Mrs. Shen doesn't agree, Ah Heng won't be able to kneel for a long time."

Ignoring him anymore, Shen Yining walked out for a distance, saw that he was still kneeling motionless, sighed helplessly, turned around and turned back.

"Yue Heng, I don't need you to protect me, I can protect myself, and I've always been free. You have a strong ability to do something more meaningful. If you really want to repay me, go to the pharmacy to help, it can be regarded as saving people's lives, and you can win the seventh-level floating slaughter. ā€

When Yue Heng heard this, he immediately got up and said, "Okay, Shen Niangzi, I will listen to you, I will go to Shen Langzhong immediately." ā€

Listen to the bamboo garden, the northwest corner of the lower room.

Qingxi and Tingtao had already heard that the prince had personally led a delicate lady back to the house, and asked the most trusted aunt Qiu Ci to serve. I also heard that the lady fainted for some reason, and it was the prince who personally carried her back to the room, and the prince also went to the house several times to take care of the sick little lady.

The two of them were a little restless, and if they couldn't complete the task assigned by Aunt Xichun, they would definitely be heavily punished.

After listening to Tao Si, he was even more unwilling, and he was born when he was a child, like a flower and jade. When I was in the palace, I once met His Royal Highness King Qin, King Qin saw that he couldn't take his eyes off it, and he was in love, and he wanted to ask himself to be a concubine, but he was stopped by the queen's mother. Now that he was sent to the Qi Palace, I thought that His Royal Highness the King of Qi indulged in lust and loved beauties the most, and he would have a great chance to climb on the bed of the nobleman and ascend to the sky in one step. It's a pity that King Qi only stayed in the mansion for two days and left. I never thought that I would come back with a little lady this time.

Could it be that my chances are getting slimmer and slimmer? No, absolutely not. Listening to Tao pondering for a while, he said softly: "Sister Qingxi, why don't you write a letter to Aunt Xichun and see what Aunt Xichun says?" ā€

Qingxi thought about it, and in order to complete the task, she could only ask Aunt Xichun for help. The two quickly prepared a letter and secretly asked a subordinate to send it out.

Hu Mansion.

The backyard of the Hu house is beautiful, and the rockery and green trees are scattered. Among them, there is a rockery, which seems to be ordinary but hides a mystery.

There are dense woods around the rockery, and there are hidden guards with high martial arts on the trees. Inside the rockery, there is an inconspicuous iron gate. Under the iron gate, there is a well-defended, airtight death row. It is very difficult for those who enter the inside to come out alive, and even those who can come out again will definitely be severely beaten.

Now in the innermost cell, a middle-aged man knelt on an iron plate covered with thorns, his knees were faintly oozing blood, and his face was extremely painful.

He kept kowtowing to the man in front of him to apologize, his forehead was already red and swollen, and he couldn't cry: "Hu Xiang, the lower official really knows that ...... is wrong."

This person is Gao Yi, and the person in front of him is Hu Yingwei.

"Hu Xiang, the minion really knows ...... wrong"

"Hu Xiang, the slave has a cheap life, just do your best, and then you have ...... after death"

"Hu Xiang, the slave still has a plan, please listen to the slave's words......"

Hu Yingwei looked at him coldly, without the slightest sympathy and pity in his eyes, as if he was looking at a mean and ridiculous pug. He ordered someone to remove the torture instrument from Gao Yi's knee.

"Tell me, if it doesn't work for me, today is your time of death."

Gao Yi shuddered, gritted his teeth and spoke: "If you go back to Hu Xiang, if you push that cheap woman directly in front of the saint, and then let her commit a capital crime." Even if it is Li Yu, I am afraid it will be difficult to keep her. In this way, you have the opportunity to negotiate with Li Yu. ā€

"Oh, how?"

Gao Yi hurriedly said a long paragraph.

Hu Yingwei sneered, he already had a plan in his heart, so he ordered someone to help Gao Yi back to rest.

On this day, Shen Yining came to the study to find him and planned to say goodbye.

"Thank you Lord Wang, thank you Aunt Qiuci for your careful care. The little girl is here to ask for her resignation today. Shen Yining bowed respectfully and smiled.

A trace of loss flashed in his eyes, and he returned to normal: "Shen Niangzi is going back to Liangzhou?" ā€
