Chapter 20 There is a secret

In a secret residential house north of Weijun City, two dark shadows are discussing something in front of the light and dark candlelight.

Among them, the younger man took out a paper bag from his arms and threw it to the elder opposite the table. He was very dissatisfied and said, "Didn't you say that your medicine is very effective? Why is there no abnormality at all? I think you also eat in Jianghu Langzhong, don't you?

"Bah!" The elder said anhungry, "The old medicine has always been smellless and tasteless. You have made a mistake in your own action, but you still blame the old medicine. It's really sore on the soles of your feet and the shoes are uneven!"

"How can it be? I'm obviously careless. You all say it's smellless and tasteless. If that's the case, who will detect it?" The man's face was very ugly. "Anyway, if the action fails, you can't get rid of it in front of the marquis!"

"I've never wanted to get rid of it!" The elder sneered disdainfully, "Because the old man and the royal are inseparable!" I don't do things for your marquis, but for myself!"

"Ok, okay, no matter who you are doing it for, anyway, you are right that you are obeying the marquis now. Either you help me think about poisoning again, or you will lead the guards away for me, let me sneak into the house, and I will kill the little woman by myself."

The elder thought for a moment, "Whoever doesn't turn out is your task. What does it have to do with the old man? The old man has always been only responsible for inquiring and sending messages. He has helped you think of a simple and easy way and sent a bag of powder, which is already benevolent and righteous. You have also praised the old man's method for being ingenious. Who can blame for not succeeding? Old man doesn't seem to be able to help you!"

The man was angry and stared at the elder for a long time angrily. Suddenly, he smiled coldly, "Hey hey, that's right. I'm carrying out the task under the secret order of the marquis. What about you? Even if you don't sell the marquis' face, can the one in the palace forgive you? I'm afraid that the details before you came to Weijun have been clearly grasped by others for a long time? If you get angry and shouldn't be provoked, you don't have to do anything. Just reveal a little to the King of Wei or the Empress Dowager Wei. Your whole family will be chased out of Wei County, which is light!"

The man's sarcasm made the elder blush. Finally, he squeezed a few words from his teeth with hatred, "Let me go back and think about it, and I'll give you an answer tomorrow!" With that, he fell and wanted to leave the room.

"Wait!" Seeing this, the man stopped him in a low voice and said, "Before I came, the marquis ordered that he must do something within half a month, otherwise it would be useless to die once the time passed. It has been eight days since I left Beijing and came to Weijun, so you'd better not perfunctory me and delay the marquis's big event. Do you think I will still live? "

"Speaking of which, are you relying on me?" The elder turned around and stared at the man and said, "As soon as you two come to Weijun, we will arrange everything for you, including the topographic map of the palace, the changing time of the patrol guard, etc., but what is the result? The clumsy fool died for nothing, and even frightened the snake. Now it is even more difficult to find an opportunity than climbing to the sky. I said that I will reply to you tomorrow is to go back and think of a good way. Otherwise, you don't have to wait for the marquis to deal with it. Just like the guy who died in the palace, go straight to the Lord of Hell to report!"

"Old man, are you tired of living?" The man was furious, patted the case, and pulled out a sharp dagger from his waist. "You don't have to wait for the marquis to deal with it. It's up to you today!"

"Do you dare to touch an old man's finger?" The elders were not afraid to glare at each other with the men. "Although they are all serving the marquis, I am the chess pieces that the marquis has planted for many years. Even ten of you are not as important as me. If you want to be an inch, then tie it to the old chest!"

The man didn't say anything, just frowned angrily, because he knew very well that the other party's words were not completely threatening words. As subordinates, even if they didn't like each other again, no marquis spoke, and no one had the courage to act, unless they were really impatient.

After a long time, the man reluctantly suppressed the anger blocked in his chest. "Well, I'm too lazy to argue with you. Anyway, you and I are also grasshoppers tied to a rope. If you can't cross with the marquis, no one will be better. You can think about it yourself. I'll wait for you!"

The elder was no longer too lazy to pay attention to the man. He turned around and strode out of the house. When he came to the street, he sighed heavily and said, "What a big thing can happen!"

After taking Ji Yu Guang's medicine, Ning Tang'er really got better quickly. On that day, she stopped her abdominal pain and stopped sweating. On the second day, she could eat some porridge, but it was made by Wei'er to bring her to the bed, while Ning Tang'er had been lying on the couch as if she was sleeping. Wei'er and Crisp and other maidservants thought that Ning Tang'er was weak after illness and needed I wanted to rest, so instead of Ning Tang'er's call, I didn't dare to disturb Ning Tang'er.

Before the evening, Wei'er took the newly boiled medicine and went into Ning Tang'er's bedroom. "Madam, get up and drink the medicine. The maidservant has been drying for a while, and the hot and cold is just right."

Ning Tanger looked back at the medicine bowl in Wei'er's hand and frowned and said, "Take it away. I'm fine. I don't want to drink it anymore. The taste of this medicine is really unbearable."

"How can that work, madam? Dr. Thistle said that he had to drink all the medicine he prescribed to avoid the recurrence of the disease. You just got a little better. Just put up with it!" Wei'er persuaded softly.

Ning Tanger was very impatient, "It's all said that I'm fine. Why do you force me to drink as if you don't understand? Take it away. Those doctors can't wait for you to take medicine as a meal. I don't believe that this cold can be repeated!" After saying that, he turned around and still turned his back to the fear.

The fear stood awkwardly for a moment, and had no choice but to say, "What would you like to eat in the evening? I'll order the kitchen to do it."

"Whatever, just pick a few light dishes." Ning Tanger stopped and suddenly turned over and sat up. "Weir, nothing happened in the palace today. What is the prince busy with?"

Wei Er was stunned, "What's going on? Isn't it the same as usual? How can the prince know what he is busy with? Why don't he ask the prince to go to the leisure pavilion to see his wife?

"Forget it!" Ning Tanger waved her hand angrily, "Our prince is a busy man. Even if he is reluctantly invited, he can't stay in the fragrance. Go down and let me be quiet!"

"Ouch, the maidservant is leaving!" Although Wei'er was inexplicable, she still withdrew from the bedroom according to Ning Tang'er's instructions. After pouring out the medicine that Ning Tanger refused to drink, she told Crier to pay attention to the movement upstairs, and she went straight to the kitchen.

After dinner, Ning Tanger's spirit did not seem to have improved much. She was a little worried. Fu Ning Tanger sat on the lounge chair in front of the window. However, a little later, she helped Ning Tanger wash up. After Anning Tanger lay down and closed the door of the bedroom for Ning Tanger.

Back to her bedroom, Wei'er was not sleepy. She picked up and embroidered the female red at the beginning and continued to embroider it. When Ning Tang'er was good, she was quite able to tosss. After a while, she was used to waiting. Suddenly, Wei Er felt as if she had done something.

As soon as she embroidered two stitches, there was a knock on the door. Wei Er knew that it must be other maids in the leisure pavilion, because except for the prince who occasionally came, no one came to the leisure pavilion at all, and the prince would naturally not knock on the door of her maidservant.

"Come in, the door is unlocked!" Wei Er glanced at the door and continued to bow her head to embroider her purple magnolia.

It was Cristle who pushed the door and entered. When Cristle saw that Wei'er was a girl, she hesitated for a moment before walking to Wei'er. "Sister hasn't rested yet? The embroidered magnolia is so beautiful. What are you going to do with it?"

Wei'er did not answer Cristle's words directly, but asked, "What's the matter with me?" Let's put it bluntly."

Crispy sat down on the stool next to her, looked at Wei Er, and said hesitantly, "Sister, don't you think our wife is a little strange..."

"Strange?" Wei Er looked up and said, "What do you mean?"

"Take this illness as an example..." In the middle of the words, she suddenly stopped, looked at the door nervously, and then moved the stool closer to the fear. Then she lowered her voice and said, "Yesterday, my wife was not feeling well. When my sister went to invite King Wei, she asked me to pour water, but after I poured the water, my wife did not I didn't drink it immediately, but asked me to put down the water and go out first. I went out of the bedroom and closed the door for my wife. I was going to go downstairs and wait for my sister to come back, but before I went downstairs, I was a little worried about my wife, so I looked through the crack of the door, but..."

"What's the matter?" Wei'er listened to Cristle's words, but the needle and thread in her hand did not stop, not tight or slow, one needle connected to another, and from her tone, she didn't seem to care much about what Cristle said, but just asked casually.

"Madam got up by herself, poured a bag of white powder-like things into the glass of water, and then drank it clean. Sister, how can this happen?"

"It may be that my wife's abdominal pain is too severe. Have you made a fuss about drinking the pain powder left before?" Wei Er turned her head and smiled, "You came here to tell me this?"

"However, if it's really pain-killing powder, why did Madam knead the medicine paper into a ball and swallow it?" Crispy's eyes widened, "Sister, don't you think it's strange at all?"

"Did you also swallow the paper wrapped in medicine?" Wei'er thought for a moment, "Well, this is a little abnormal, but I know that my wife was really uncomfortable at that time. Maybe she swallowed it in a hurry?"

"Oh?" Crispy's eyes turned, "Listen to my sister's words, there seems to be some truth. Fortunately, I came to tell my sister. If I don't feel uneasy, I'm afraid that something bad will happen to me."

"I understand that you are worried that our wife will not hesitate to damage her body and bones in order to win the favor of the prince. In fact, although the wife hopes to get the favor of the prince, she may not have put all her thoughts on the prince, so she should not make such a bad idea." Wei Er comforts her. Crispy said, "Don't think too much. We are not a palace here. If it's in the palace, you have to be very careful."

"Alas, although it's not the palace, if something happens to the masters in the palace, we can't get rid of it. But what do you mean by my sister's words? Why do you have to be very careful in the palace?"

Wei Er sighed and put down the embroidery frame in her hand and said, "Because when the former Emperor Suwu was still in the throne, it happened that the concubine deliberately poisoned herself and planted other concubines in order to compete for favor."

"Ah? Who is so cruel?" Crispy asked in shock.

"Who else can there be, Empress Dowager Li, the Empress Dowager Li at that time."

"Who was harmed by her?"

"The biological mother of Wu Wang Zhuo Yuanle!"
