Volume 2: The Holy Capital Volume Qingyun Banquet: (9) Adventure
As soon as he finished breakfast, Ye Xuan opened the wooden box curiously, and saw that there was a bottle of emerald green liquid inside, and the pure vitality was emitted from the liquid in the jade bottle, even if the jade bottle was not opened, the pure breath could still make people feel refreshed.
"Princess, what is this?
"I don't know, they didn't send it to me in previous years, but this year I don't know how it suddenly sent it to me. Tuoba Ran smiled disdainfully: "But I feel that there is a lot of wind spirit bead power in it, which should be extracted by some means." ”
There are two wooden boxes, and one is for the national teacher, which has been sent to the room of Tuoba Mozhan by herring fish.
"This thing is not very useful, it is better than boiled water for the old monster of the master, and it only has a one-day time limit, and it will lose its effect after today, which is almost the same as white water. ”
"Then how do you send this thing to the palaces?"
"The Emperor's intentions, they are useless to these old monsters, but they are of great use to us, after all, there is the power of the spirit bead in it. "Tuoba Ran can also feel the abundant power inside, she is the wind attribute vitality, which can bring her great benefits.
Ye Xuan nodded, and when he was about to close the wooden box, Medusa suddenly shouted in his heart: "Wait, this thing is wrong!"
"Huh?" Ye Xuan was stunned, what's wrong?
Medusa sat in Ye Xuan's heavenly spirit, carefully feeling this so-called Feng Yu Yin through her divine soul power, and in the pure vitality, she felt a little different, a bit like ...... Poison!
She is a master of using poison, and the snake clan has been the most poisonous since ancient times, and she is also the saint of the snake clan, so she is naturally more skilled in using poison. There was a faint trace of debilitating poison in the pure vitality, very faint, but she still noticed it.
"It seems to be poisonous, not fatal, but also dangerous. Medusa's voice was unusually solemn, not like a joke.
In an instant, Ye Xuan's brain was running rapidly, and suddenly a cold sweat broke out.
Since it is poisonous, it must be harmful, this wind jade citation was given by the emperor and named to Tuoba Dye. In that case, is the emperor trying to poison Tuoba Ran?
But Ye Xuan thought about it for a moment and felt that there was no reason, then Emperor Yunze couldn't wait to hold Tuoba Ran in the palm of his hand, how could he poison her again?
But this Feng Yu Yin was sent by the old emperor's eunuch, and it is very unlikely that someone else should have done it with just one hand.
Ye Xuan didn't know much about the forces in the palace, and it was difficult to draw conclusions for a while.
However, at this moment, he suddenly remembered that Gonggong Yang still had the matter of the fifth princess robbing the road when he came out of the palace, and the old eunuch was involved with the Wan family?
"Tuoba Qing ......" Ye Xuan silently read the name, still a little afraid to make up his mind. Dare to poison the princess, this crime is not small, the person who can do this must have a strong enough background in the first place, and be well prepared in the second.
"Sister Sha, are you sure? This is something for the princess, does anyone really dare to poison it?" Ye Xuan was still a little unsure, such a sudden situation made him, a country boy who was not familiar with the place, fall into an embarrassment all of a sudden.
"Give me half a stick of incense, and I'll find out. Medusa did not hesitate, she was very confident in herself when it came to using drugs.
"Good. Ye Xuan fixed an idea in his heart and nodded.
"Sister Qingyu, can you break the princess apart for a while? Ye Xuan leaned in front of the herring fish and whispered, the herring fish, who was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, looked at Ye Xuan in surprise and puzzled, what is this for?
"Half a stick of incense is fine. ”
"Hmm...... Okay, but you're going to tell me what you're going to do? Before you left, your master told me to watch you. Qingyu looked at Ye Xuan quietly and wanted to know what Ye Xuan wanted to do. If Ye Xuan is the prince of Qingyu according to his identity, he is not qualified to ask, but now the situation is different, and there are some things to be flexible.
"I'll tell you tonight. Ye Xuan lowered her voice, and the undoubted voice made Qingyu not know how to refuse, and her nature made her choose to compromise.
"Xiao Ran, come and help my sister clean up her things. The herring fish shouted, and Tuoba Ran, who was teasing the cat on the side, hurriedly responded, and Tuoba Ran's legs and feet were inconvenient Tuoba Ran knew, and hurriedly brought the dishes and chopsticks in her hand.
"You wait for me for a while, and I'll be back in a while. Before leaving, Tuoba Ran also specially called Ye Xuan.
"Hmm. Ye Xuan nodded.
After the two walked out of the room, Ye Xuan quickly picked up the wooden box and ran to his room.
"Sister Sha. Ye Xuan unscrewed the jade bottle after opening the wooden box, and suddenly the pure vitality filled the whole room, making people feel refreshed after smelling it.
With a flash of purple light, Medusa's wonderful figure appeared in the room in a purple dress, and her beautiful face suddenly added a few colors to the empty room. Medusa picked up the jade bottle and sniffed it lightly, her willow eyebrows furrowed slightly, and the long purple hair that was hip-length behind her back floated and turned into a small snake and curled up in Medusa's hand.
Medusa poured out the jade and held a small drop in her hand for the little snake to eat.
At first, the little snake was still very excited, and the thin snake body absorbed such a strong force and became a little thicker, wrapped around Medusa's arm, and it was very well-behaved, and there was nothing abnormal to see.
"No, I noticed it. Medusa's brow furrowed even tighter, she had indeed felt the poison from this wind jade lead.
"Could it be that the time is wrong?" Medusa thought of something, and her purple eyes flashed, and the blood flow rate and vitality operation speed in the body of the little snake, which was originally alive, suddenly accelerated, and after entrenching for a while, it suddenly quieted down, and it was entrenched in Medusa's hands and stopped moving.
In just two breaths, the small snake's original lustrous snake scales dimmed, and black blood oozed from the snake's mouth, entrenched in Medusa's hand, extremely painful. Despite this, Medusa did not stop and accelerated, and the little snake kept suffering but did not die, and its motionless breath was reduced to a minimum.
About half a moment later, the toxicity faded, and the little snake returned to its original state, but the miserable situation just now made Ye Xuan dare not forget it.
"Calculated, according to the time, if you take this thing at night, the poison will attack, it will not be fatal, but it will make people lose their mobility and greatly reduce their strength. ”
Ye Xuan clenched his fists, if this thing was used by Tuoba Ran, wouldn't it be dangerous to have the Qingyun Banquet tonight? Some people don't want to see Tuoba Ran go to the Qingyun Banquet, or they want Tuoba Ran to make a fool of himself at the banquet, but they use this vicious method to make people look shameful.
Emperor Yunze will definitely not be poisoned, and the most likely one is Wanjia. Tuoba Ran said earlier that she still holds the handle of the Wan family in her hand, and she has always been at odds with Wan Guifei. The embezzlement case in Buhuangzhou implicated the two major families, and their remnants also have the possibility of doing it.
And the only breakthrough point is on Yang Gonggong.
Ye Xuan held the jade bottle, and a bold thought suddenly popped up in his mind.
"Sister Sha, what will happen if I drink this thing but only half of it?" Ye Xuan came coldly, this sentence obviously scared Medusa, didn't he say that this was poison?
"A pig's brain can think clearly!" Medusa looked at Ye Xuan solemnly and directly snatched Feng Yu over, she would never let him put himself in danger of such a dangerous thing.
"Can you solve it?"
"Yes, but even then I won't let you drink it. There are still two bottles of dragon marrow, do you have to drink this?" Medusa really couldn't understand what kind of calculus Ye Xuan was making in his head, knowing that it was poisonous and still wanted to drink it.
"And you promised me to listen to me. ”
And Ye Xuan grinned, and with such a smile, Medusa's head was big.
......
"Why are you here?"
After Tuoba Ran helped herring clean up the dishes and chopsticks, he searched for a long time and didn't find Ye Xuan, and after a long time, he found that Ye Xuan was piling a snowman on the snow outside his yard, and the snowman was already half finished and most of his body was already piled up.
"I realized that the house we connected seemed to be separated by a wall, but back to back, one facing north and the other facing south. Ye Xuan pointed to the fence behind the courtyard, from here, you can step on the roof tiles of your own yard, and you will reach your own yard.
"Really?" Tuoba Ran suddenly became interested, jumped to the wall and found that it was true, and suddenly an inexplicable and wonderful thought came to his mind, and his face immediately turned red: This wall shouldn't be very strong, right?
"By the way, Princess, I want to discuss something with you. Ye Xuan took out the wooden box.
"There's no one else here, don't always call me princess. Tuoba Ran suddenly approached and looked at Ye Xuan with a smile, and the two little tiger teeth were exposed, which was very cute. The emerald eyes were full of smiles, like a spring breeze blowing across Ye Xuan's chest, leaving a trace of indescribable tenderness.
"Hmm...... Dye. ”
"Uh-huh, you say. Tuoba Ran was very happy when he heard this, and the lotus step moved slightly closer. The cold wind blew faintly with a hint of fragrance, lingering on the tip of Ye Xuan's nose.
"Ahem...... That, can you give this wind jade guide to me?" Ye Xuan looked at Tuoba Ran's innocent smile and was suddenly stunned, his heart was fluttering, and at this moment, the soul core shook his heart and returned to his place in an instant, Ye Xuan coughed twice This is the right thing.
"Feng Yuyin, what do you want this thing for? This doesn't seem to be medicine. Tuoba Ran didn't think too much about it, she thought that Ye Xuan wanted to use this thing as medicine.
"The Feeling Spirit Pattern needs the vitality of the wind attribute as a guide, and it just so happens to have the power of the Wind Spirit Bead in it, and I want to take this opportunity to comprehend. Ye Xuan had already thought of an excuse and blurted out.
"Okay, you can take it, anyway, I'm not in a hurry to break through now, and there will be opportunities in the future. Tuoba Ran was still reminiscing about what Ye Xuan had just called her, and she was very happy.
"I'm also a wind attribute element, do you want me to help?"
"Call you when you need to. ”
"That's a word. Tuoba Ran smiled and suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Ye Xuan's arm: "Let's go, let's go build a snowman." The girl's long hair flew across Ye Xuan's cheeks, and the vague warmth made Ye Xuan lose her resistance, and she was obediently pulled away like that, looking at Tuoba Ran's cute appearance, Ye Xuan suddenly couldn't imagine how she lived before?
Can you be as happy as this?
"I'll help you with the Qingyun banquet in the evening, you have to get ready. ”
"Help me?" Takubaran, who was rubbing snowballs, suddenly turned his head, a little surprised, how to help?
"You are often bullied by the Wan family, do Emperor Yunze know?"
"I don't know, I never look for him. Takubaran shook his head obediently.
"If you enter the Criminal Department, then you will inevitably tear your face with the Wanjia, the emperor must know, I want to stab this barrier for the knife. ”
"You...... What do you want to do?"
Ye Xuan's calm words startled Tuoba Ran, what are you trying to do, what is the knife piercing?
"Nothing, I just wanted to help you. You shouldn't be uncomfortable laughing, if you want to laugh, you have to laugh heartily. ”
In the face of humiliation when the fifth princess robbed the road two days ago, Tuoba Ran was still calm with a smile, that kind of smile was not from the heart, it was a kind of self-protection to comfort herself.
Ye Xuan knew what that feeling was, so he didn't want Tuoba Ran to continue like this.
Tuoba Ran shook his hand and suddenly crushed the snowball in his hand, looking down at the broken snow in his hand and not knowing what to say. She couldn't tell when she had been like this, but it seemed that she had begun to do so when she faced the laughter of her brothers and sisters at her mother's funeral.
After ten years like this, I have become numb.
"Since I am now your close attendant and your junior brother, I naturally have a reason to help you. ”
"Stupid. Tuoba Ran lowered his head and scolded with a smile, and suddenly his eyes blurred: "Aren't you afraid that the master will punish you when he comes back?"
"I'll talk about this later, anyway, the master and his old man are far away now, can't I still have you, I'm your close attendant, he doesn't dare to punish me. ”
"Poof......" Tuoba Ran secretly touched a handful of tears and smiled, reached out and pinched a handful of snow and threw it at Ye Xuan, which happened to hit him in the face, becoming a "white-faced little student".
"Let's have a snowball fight!" A snowball flew over as he spoke, and under the sun, Tuoba Ran's happy figure became the most beautiful scenery in this winter, and no matter how low the temperature was, it didn't seem to be cold......
