Chapter 229: Poisoning
As soon as the ebony box was opened, Wang Yuxin was still looking forward to any brilliance, but he never thought that not only would there be no effect, but the contents inside were still very inconspicuous.
Dryland dragon silk, Wang Yuxin has seen it, but it is only a small piece, and at this time, the dryland dragon silk lying in the ebony box is an oval blue-gray cocoon shell, but much larger than the ordinary silkworm cocoon, at this time there are four or five such cocoon shells lying quietly in the ebony box. Wang Yuxin knows that although these cocoons seem inconspicuous, in fact, each of them is priceless, and it is something that money can't buy.
And a black stone side by side with the dryland dragon silk in the box, Wang Yuxin didn't know it, that thing was very black, almost three points blacker than the ebony sunspot that held it, if it weren't for the green silk in the box as a lining, Wang Yuxin would almost not see this black thing.
However, Wang Yuxin didn't know, it didn't mean that others didn't know, when he was observing the black stone, he noticed a heavy breath beside him, he turned his head to look, and found that Wang Huanrong was taking a deep breath, obviously calming his mind, but her red eyes still showed the excitement in her heart.
"What's wrong?" asked Wang Yuxin in a low voice.
Shaking her head slightly, Wang Huanrong exhaled a breath of turbidity, as if she had spit out the boredom in her heart, and muttered: "Moyan." β
"That black stone?" Wang Yuxin confirmed, "What's the use?"
Lang Yuenan and Wang Huanrong both mentioned the name Moyan, obviously referring to the black thing, but seeing that both of them were extremely solemn, it was obvious that the value of the black stone called Moyan was not at all under those dryland dragon silks, so Wang Yuxin also asked curiously.
Wang Huanrong looked at the ink eye stupidly, as if she hadn't heard Wang Yuxin's question, what could make her so out of shape was definitely not an ordinary thing. Without waiting for Wang Huanrong's answer, Wang Yuxin heard Lang Yuenan's voice: "Old man, you also know that ink eyes are the best in ink, my father accidentally got a method to grind ink into ink, and add dry land dragon silk to make the most outstanding dragon eye ink." With this ink, the book can be like a dragon and a phoenix, and the painting can be brought to life. Old man, you use dragon eye ink to swipe it, isn't it just the finishing touch? β
As Lang Yuenan was talking, Old Man Lu had already got up tremblingly, his hands trembled like chaff, and he took the ebony box with a handful, stroking it with trembling hands. His body bones are also tough, the reason why he has such a table is obviously because he is very excited, and the old man Lu obviously knows the value of the two things in the ebony box. It's no wonder that he was so excited, even Wang Huanrong almost couldn't help himself when he saw that inky eye, let alone him.
Knowing what Moyan is from Lang Yuenan, Wang Yuxin naturally understands why Wang Huanrong is out of shape, this kind of thing is the most valuable treasure for anyone who can write and paint, let alone Wang Huanrong, who is a leader in painting.
"With your ability, do you still need to covet that inky eye?" asked Wang Yuxin puzzled.
"You know what? If you can make a picture with your inky eyes, your life will be in vain. Although Wang Huanrong talked to Wang Yuxin, her eyes stared intently at the ebony box in Old Man Lu's arms, and when she saw the other party's excited look, she suddenly sneered, "Do you still need to waste ink eyes to live?"
After speaking, Wang Huanrong retracted her gaze and dealt with the dishes in front of her fiercely, as if she wanted to vent her dissatisfaction on the table.
looked at Wang Huanrong in a daze, Wang Yuxin really found it difficult to understand her resentment. Fang Yan on the side pulled Wang Yuxin's sleeve and said softly: "The meaning of ink eyes to her is like a sword to a warrior." β
Wang Yuxin nodded understandingly, if he hadn't practiced martial arts, he wouldn't have been able to understand Fang Yan's words, but now he understands very well that martial artists can often exert their strength more with the help of the sword, and even to a higher realm, the sword is like clothes, shoes and socks, it is already a necessity for the life of a warrior, and it cannot be separated.
"It seems that the things sent by Lang Yuenan are really charcoal in the snow. Wang Yuxin also knew that the Lu family's father and son were eager for fame, and Lang Yuenan sent this kind of thing to Old Man Lu as a birthday gift, obviously to the other party's heart.
"Thank you Ling Zun for me, and thank you here. Old Man Lu's eyes were filled with a strange light, and the whole person couldn't help but feel ten years younger.
"What did the old man say, today is your 60th birthday, and doing our filial piety is also what our juniors should do. Lang Yuenan replied with a smile.
"Yuenan, you must have a few more drinks today, hehehe. "Old Man Lu has a big heart, and he is happy to see everything for a while.
"Definitely, the little girl went down first. Lang Yuenan said and retreated.
Her generous gift is a small climax, comparing everyone to the bottom, but the Ten Thousand Beasts Villa has stolen the limelight, and the others are not dissatisfied, in the troubled times, strength is respected, in this northwest area, whose fist can be harder than the Ten Thousand Beasts Villa.
After retiring, Lang Yuenan took a deep look at Wang Huanrong, and found that she was eating desperately, a trace of helplessness flashed on her face, and she said a few words to her entourage, and then returned to her seat.
The entourage of the Ten Thousand Beasts Villa listened to Lang Yuenan's instructions, walked straight to Wang Huanrong, and after saluting her, he said a few words in her ear, saw Wang Huanrong nodded, and then Shi Li left.
Seeing the entourage walking away, Wang Yuxin came up and asked, "What did he tell you?"
"Lang Yuenan said that he would meet me tonight, at the Shunxing Inn. Wang Huanrong said while eating the food.
"You agreed?" Wang Yuxin was surprised.
"If you don't agree, I'm afraid Miss Lang will make a fuss. Wang Huanrong smiled lightly, and seemed to have come out of the depression just now.
"But ......" Wang Yuxin stopped talking and didn't finish.
Wang Huanrong glanced at Jiangling and said with a smile: "Promise to come down for the time being, and I'll talk about it later." β
Wang Yuxin closed his mouth when he saw this, but Jiang Ling opened his mouth and smiled: "Lang Yuenan is embarrassed to come over when he sees me here, the younger brother has delayed the good things of the eldest brother." β
"Brother Xian, don't ridicule him as a brother, you know better than me what kind of person Lang Yuenan is. Wang Huanrong said with a wry smile.
"Well, I think it's better for my eldest brother to be careful, if not, go to my house for a while tonight. Jiang Ling immediately changed his expression to Yan SΓΉ.
"Don't worry, the eldest brother will deal with it. Wang Huanrong nodded, signaling Jiangling to rest assured.
As soon as Wang Huanrong's words fell, a crisp sound came, and the noisy hall was quiet in an instant, and everyone followed the prestige, only to see a middle-aged man in brocade sitting on the ground, and the ground was full of fragments of cups. This middle-aged man in fine clothes also knew that he was out of shape, and tried hard to get up, but he didn't seem to have any strength at all, and he said: "I'm sorry, Li is out of ...... Gaffe ......"
Before he could finish speaking, he lay down on the ground, and all that was left was a soft moan, as if he had fallen asleep. The middle-aged man surnamed Li lay down, as if it was a beginning, and several people in the room suddenly sat down, and some even pulled down a table, and the entire banquet hall immediately became a mess, and from time to time someone fell to the ground or lay on the table.
Seeing this scene, Wang Yuxin immediately looked at Wang Huanrong, and after this change, Wang Yuxin suddenly had no idea, but after he looked at Wang Huanrong, he found that Wang Huanrong was also tired, fell back and sat down, and at the same time he was shocked, he hurriedly stepped forward to help her, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"Pretending to be dizzy. β
As soon as he got to Wang Huanrong's side, Wang Yuxin heard the other party say to himself in a very thin voice. Knowing that there was a situation, he didn't have time to think about it at all, so he followed the example of other people, lay on the ground, and at the same time as he fell to the ground, Wang Yuxin also saw Fang Yan, Xiang Xue, and Kang Xingyu were also generally on the ground. Even Gangneung is average, and Gangneung is even more straightforward, fainting directly.
"What's going on?" Wang Yuxin leaned closer to Wang Huanrong's ear and asked with internal force.
"Wait and see. Wang Huanrong gave him a look.
Wang Yuxin knew that several of them were pretending to be dizzy, but it changed suddenly, and he hadn't figured it out yet, so he could only follow Wang Huanrong and the others to pretend to do the same.
The change came too quickly, almost in just a few breaths, a piece fell inside and outside the banquet hall, and before the house slaves and guards of the Lu Mansion could react, everyone fell.
At this moment, Wang Yuxin heard Wang Huanrong shouting in a rough voice: "The wine is poisonous." β
Wang Yuxin suddenly realized, no wonder Wang Huanrong didn't let him swallow the wine, it turned out that the article was in the wine, but how did Wang Huanrong know that the wine was poisonous?
Before Wang Yuxin could think about it, Wang Huanrong changed another voice and said, "Why did Lord Lu poison us?"
Wang Yuxin is not stupid, under the electric thought, he immediately knew that Wang Huanrong was doing this on purpose, of course, the purpose was to make Lu Jingmei the target of the public, but Lu Jingmei also fell to the ground like everyone else, obviously poisoned. Wang Yuxin didn't know why Wang Huanrong did this, but the evolution of the situation quickly gave him an answer.
As Wang Huanrong's words fell, several Lu Mansion guards had already rushed to Lu Jingmei's side, protecting Lu Jingmei and her parents in the center, and one of them even checked Lu Jingmei's pulse and fed him a few small pills.
"Lord Lu...... Why are you doing this......" A person followed Wang Huanrong and asked.
Wang Yuxin peeked at it and recognized this person as the prefect of this place, named Cui Qiang. It stands to reason that he is the parent official here, even if he doesn't suppress Lu Jingmei, he should be on an equal footing with him. However, Lu Jingmei's power is strong, and Cui Qiang knows that he can't fight him, so he takes Lu Jingmei as the first everywhere, and his forbearance is first-class, but he has been suppressed by Lu Jingmei all the year round, and Cui Qiang will certainly not be willing to give in. Seeing that someone was taking the lead at this moment, he was the first to respond, first putting a black pot on Lu Jingmei's back. Whether he did it unintentionally or took advantage of the situation to rebound, in short, he would not let Lu Jingmei run away lightly.
Seeing that someone took the lead, many people also opened up to blame Lu Jingmei, and it was obvious that they were not convinced on weekdays.
With the escort of those people, Lu Jingmei seemed to have confidence in her heart, and immediately weakly defended: "No...... Not the official ...... Under the poison ...... The poisoner must be here...... Everyone, don't be impatient...... lest the traitors succeed ......"
Lu Jingmei put Cui Qiang and others together with the poisoners and became traitors, not only to appease everyone, but also to draw a clear line with those people. However, people are easy to panic when they are in trouble, of course, it is not Lu Jingmei's pale words that can be resolved, so many people also began to panic, if the person who poisoned him was close to the left, then his life was undoubtedly in the hands of others, and for a while, chaos arose.
But at this time, I don't know who it is, so I shouted again: "This is the Turtle Breath Pill!"
