Narrowly Escaped Death Chapter 19: The Answer
"What's that, Mother!" Hou Xiaru asked.
"It's a smart soup for your son and son-in-law, how good it would be if your brother and Jin's son-in-law were on the list together!"
"Husband's medicine, let Su Mu Ning boil!" Xia Ru said deliberately, "They are so affectionate, they are more sincere than any of them!"
He Xiatong on the side echoed: "This is reasonable!" Saying that, Ding Lan left, and He Xiatong also followed her.
However, Xia Ru turned to Mu Ning and said, "Mu Ning, my husband's medicine is entrusted to you!" She deliberately said this just to stimulate Mu Ning and let him know that her current husband is Pu Hanmo.
After she left, Ah Jin on the side also shook his head dissatisfiedly at Hou Xiaru.
Half a crescent moon hung in the sky of the cold night, in the palace, the emperor sat in the hall drinking wine, Pu Lihui sat aside and said: "Your Majesty, I heard that you didn't sleep well last night!"
The emperor took a sip of the wine glass and drained the wine in the wine glass and said: "Since my father went to the frontier, the widow has suffered from insomnia, and he can't sleep day or night!"
Pu Lihui smiled slightly, because he could just recommend it to the emperor of dreams, so he said: "So, the minister will prepare a prescription for the emperor today!"
"A prescription for insomnia!" The Emperor said suspiciously.
"Would you like to hear about the pipa master you invited?"
When the emperor heard this, he thought that he must recommend some woman to me, so he said: "No need, I know that I am a geisha without looking at it, and there are enough women in the palace!"
Pu Lihui smiled softly and said, "Then, let her step down!"
When Mengzhi outside the door heard it, he immediately said: "Your Majesty, the little one is afraid, although the little one is a geisha, but today he is not here as a woman!"
Pu Lihui heard it and pretended to be angry: "Be bold, speak in front of the palace without permission!"
The emperor raised his head and heard what Mengzhi said, thinking that this woman was a little interesting, so he said to Pu Lihui: "It's okay, let her in!"
"The little one doesn't bet on Long Yan, let the little one play music at the door!"
When the emperor heard what Yumezhi said, this was the first woman to speak in front of the emperor, so he sighed and said, "Okay, let's leave after the music!"
Yumezhi heard sitting on the floor outside the hall playing the lute, and the sound of the pipa was high and low.
Ah Hai in the house kept recalling what Su Muning said to him: "It was my father's suicide note written in blood, which he left with all his might before he died, here, here, evidence to prove my father's innocence!" And recalled that he had taken the piece of blood cloth in Mu Ning's hand.
"Don't talk, wipe it well, there can be no water stains!" The mother on the side instructed.
Mi Li was also working on the side, at this time, Ah Jin hurriedly came over with a bowl of soup potion, Mi Li took a sip of Wan, but because of the bitterness, he squirted out, coughing and saying: "What is this, how bitter!"
"Drink it, it's good for your body!" Ah Jin gestured anxiously.
At this time, Ah Chun also came over to join in the fun and said, "If he doesn't drink it, give it to me!" Ah Jin pushed him away and said angrily: "You have to drink with yourself!" He turned his head and smiled at Mi Li, "Drink, drink!"
Mi Li looked down at the black thing in the bowl and asked, "What is this?"
But Ah Chun beside him was an understanding person, and he knew what it was at a glance, so he said, "Isn't this Chinese medicine?" What kind of tonic should you give to your subordinates?"
"What I prepared in the kitchen is smart soup, and your brain will become smarter when you drink it!" As he spoke, he handed the medicine back to Mi Li's hand.
But Mi Li didn't appreciate it and handed it back to Ah Jin, frowned and said: I don't participate in the imperial examination, why drink this, drink it yourself, and then become smart!"
When Ah Jin heard what Mi Li said, he thought he was concerned about himself and said with a smile: "Do you want me to drink this too?" But as soon as these words fell, Ah Chun snatched it and took a sip and said: "Ah, I've become smarter, oh my mother, Ah Jin has become fierce!" deliberately teasing Ah Jin, Ah Jin angrily rushed over and beat Ah Chun angrily, just like that, this is a pleasant atmosphere for the next people.
Mu Ning walked over and watched them laughing and playing, shook her head helplessly, and glanced at the door of Ah Hai's room.
At this time, Ah Hai recalled the words on the blood cloth in Mu Ning's hand, took out a pen and paper and wrote down the words on the cloth with his memory, put down the brush after writing, and muttered: "Father, human sin, love!"
Thinking about what the hell this is, his mouth has been following his train of thought, and suddenly he looked down and finally understood, so he whispered: "Lover, father, innocent, know!"
"Lover's father?" Ah Hai said suspiciously.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door, he hurriedly hid the paper and opened the door, only to see Mu Ning standing outside the door.
"There's something please!" Mu Ning said weakly, "Teach me how to use that dagger you gave me!" Su Muning said.
At night, Yin Zi walked in front with a lantern, followed by Pu Hanmo, and they were just returning to the Hou Mansion.
At this time, in the courtyard, Ah Hai was teaching Mu Ning how to attack with a dagger, "The main purpose of the dagger is to stab!" Ah Hai held the dagger and gestured at the tree, "You can stab anywhere, but as a woman's body, if you can't succeed with one blow, you won't have a chance, so if you want to hit the fatal point, it's here, the heart!" Ah Hai said and said with the dagger gently against his chest.
"Hold the dagger with both hands when stabbing, hold the handle of the dagger with one palm, and then be close to your body and be kind to the other party!" Ah Hai said and picked up the dagger and stabbed it in front of Xiao Mu Ning, but Su Mu Ning closed her eyes out of fear.
Ah Hai continued: "That's it, all of a sudden, ......" Mu Ning slowly opened his eyes, Ah Hai handed him the dagger and said, "You try it!"
Mu Ning hesitated with a dagger in both hands, she was afraid, because it was the first time she came into contact with a cold weapon, Ah Hai saw that she was hesitant and could only hold Mu Ning's hand and pull it to her chest, Mu Ning was startled.
At this time, Pu Hanmo happened to pass by and saw her and Ah Hai holding hands and feelings, and the sea of vinegar in his heart turned and left in anger.
Seeing this, Su Muning hurriedly took two steps back timidly.
Ah Hai also knew that it was inappropriate to hold Mu Ning's hand and turned around, paused and then asked, "What did your father say in his last words?" ”
He said...... He is innocent! Mu Ning bit and said.
"Without witnesses and testimony, is this alone useful?"
She was adamant, "Someone must have mastered all this." ”
After speaking, he raised his eyes and looked at Ah Hai, Ah Hai understood what he was doing, thought for a while, and looked at Mu Ning with a bright eye.
In the wing room, Ding Lan sat upright, Hou Xiaru sat opposite, Ding Lan smiled and said softly: "On the wedding day, are you really together?" ”
Hou Xiaru was asked by her mother, her nervous face twitched slightly, and said with a smile: "Mother, what are you talking about, of course your daughter is with her father-in-law."
"You must be honest with me, there must be no things in the house that I don't know, do you know?" Ding Lan said solemnly.
Hou Xiaru nodded.
At this time, the servant Mi Li said outside the door: "Madam, Young Master Hanmo is here!" ”
Hou Xiaru glanced blankly when she heard Pu Hanmo coming.
When Ding Lan heard this, she smiled happily and asked, "Okay, has he eaten dinner?" ”
The rice grain outside the door replied respectfully: "The young master has had dinner at the Ling Bing Pavilion!" ”
Hou Xiaru interjected without squinting: "I will send a maid to bring water to freshen up, and call a more capable one to go!" ”
"Yes, Miss!" Mi Li said and left.
"Let him drink the medicine before going to bed, and we'll put it in the back kitchen, right, tell them to bring it!" Ding Lan said with a loving smile.
Hou Xiaru also smiled and said, "Mother, come with you!" ”
Ding Lan heard it and wondered, "Me?" ”
Hou Xiaru smiled: "With your encouragement, he will work harder!" ”
In the back kitchen, Ah Xu waited for the freshly boiled water on his stove, cooled it down a bit, picked up a wooden spoon and scooped up the water and poured it into the golden basin on the side.
It just so happened that Su Muning came over listlessly, and Ah Xu hurriedly put the basin on the tray, ran to Su Muning in broken steps, and scolded harshly: "Where have you been, only come back now!" ”
