My balcony connects the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 435
In the palace, festive red lanterns hung high.

Every day, there are all kinds of bright flowers, which are transported from the greenhouse outside the city, just for a few days of pleasing to the eye.

Several nuns in charge of serving food and living stood outside the courtyard gate with apprehensive expressions.

Wei Cheng was drying the herbs in the yard. Seeing this, he frowned slightly and said, "Why, Mrs. Jun can't eat anymore?"

The nuns looked at each other and smiled wryly, the leading nun gave a blessing and said, "I want to report to Mr. Wei, Madam's reaction this time is a bit big. She can't eat anything, so she just wants to drink some sour soup. The old slave has already ordered someone to cook it. I ordered red fruit soup for my wife as an appetizer."

Wei Cheng nodded slightly, put down the dustpan in his hand, and said, "Let me go and have a look."

After half a year, Cai Yan was pregnant again, and Wei Cheng didn't expect to be so accurate, he would have worn a condom if he knew it...

When I came to the Ronghua Palace where Cai Yan lived, I saw the maids teasing Dabao and Erbao from a distance.

The two little guys sat in the wooden rocking chair, being pushed and teased by the maid, babbling, not knowing what to be happy about.

Cai Yan sat at the side basking in the sun, lazily leaning on the soft couch, holding a book in his hand, seeming to be reading but not reading.

Seeing Wei Cheng's arrival, the maids hurriedly stood up to salute, Cai Yan raised his eyes and said, "Why is your husband here?"

Seeing her listless look, Wei Cheng rubbed her forehead distressedly, and said, "Why don't you go inside and rest, the wind is strong outside, what if you catch a cold?"

Cai Yan's baby fat face was slightly hot, and she glanced at the maids and nuns next to her, and replied softly: "The room is so stuffy, I asked them to move out to get some air."

Wei Cheng sat on the couch, caressed Cai Yan's white hands distressedly, and said dotingly: "Then I will sit with you for a while... Didn't I go to meet Tian Yuanhao yesterday, and I don't know how the news leaked, Tian Yuanhao As soon as I entered the city, the third aunt came to the door, and brought the tenth younger sister..."

The husband and wife were chatting in the garden, just like a couple from an ordinary family, harmonious and casual, talking about some family gossip, talking about some interesting gossip and anecdotes, occasionally a breeze blows over the high wall, and by the way brings There was a burst of laughter.

Near evening.

Wei Cheng was sitting in the study, holding a piece of information in his hand, his eyes were full of surprise and indescribable shock.

"Maybe it's time for me to go back and find a way to monetize these things."

Wei Cheng put the parchment that recorded the information on the table, and the inscriptions on it were Zhang Fei and Sun Ce.

And the most important sentence in the full text:...Everything you can see is green jade, and the place where you settle is everything you like.

Wei Cheng picked up the box on the side, which was sent along with the information, and there was only one piece of transparent jade in the box.

Wei Cheng didn't know how to justify the value of this object, but just by looking at it, he knew that this piece of jade was absolutely priceless.

"Sure enough, the wealth brought by the aggression is the most amazing. Just this emerald mine is worth at least a few trillion dollars."

Wei Cheng played with the rough jadeite in his hand with great interest, and he didn't come back to his senses until Tian Feng and Xun Yu came hand in hand.

Seeing the emerald in Wei Cheng's hand, Tian Feng smiled and said, "Surely this is the emerald that Wei Jun mentioned many times, right?"

Wei Cheng nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "That's right, I didn't expect Yide and Bofu to find them for me."

Xun Yu sized it up curiously, and said doubtfully, "This stone is just a nicer ornamental object, so there's really nothing unusual about it."

Wei Cheng chuckled, and said: "Things are rare and expensive. Some things are inedible or drinkable by themselves, and they are not worth much. But with a little guidance and publicity, I can turn them into big treasures that everyone flocks to." .”

"Oh?"

Tian Feng and Xun Yu looked at each other, they both carefully sized up the 'worthless' emerald, trying to see what was special about it.

Wei Cheng laughed, put the jade into the box, and said: "It seems that you still underestimate the importance of public opinion marketing. It seems that I need to teach you a lesson."

···
Outside Luoyang City.

Liu Yan looked at the people in front of him with a gloomy expression, holding a beautifully crafted sleeve stove in his hand, tapping the stove cover with his index finger from time to time.

The eldest son, Liu Fan, was sitting upright, without the arrogance he had when he was outside. Facing the "old guy" he called, he behaved like a baby.

"Tell me, how did you save me? Are you all dumb?" Liu Yan asked.

At this time Liu Yan was also in a panic, he was afraid that people from the Wei family would ask the news about Xu Fu's secret treasure from Yan Niang's mouth, if so, how could he seek longevity?
Compared with Wei Cheng, he has no power to fight at all.

Now he can only pray in his heart, praying that Nightmare Mother's mouth can be tighter, and it is best to be released back safe and sound.

But it is obviously impossible. If the person who was poisoned by Nightmare Mother was just an ordinary person, there might be a way to spend a lot of money to get the forgiveness of the victim's family.

But it's so hard to die, the poisoned bastard is really His Royal Highness King Zuo Xian of the Northern Huns, and this is going to be troublesome.

Not to mention whether or not Honglu Temple pursued their responsibilities, even the Northern Huns would not let go of their hatred easily.

"My lord, for the present plan, the only way to stabilize Yan Niang is to let her confess her crimes voluntarily, so as not to implicate the lord."

The counselors under him didn't know why, and thought that Liu Yan was afraid of being implicated by Yan Niang and causing a commotion.

It's no wonder that Xu Fu's secret treasure has a lot to do with it. Except for the eldest son Liu Fan, Liu Yan never mentioned it to his subordinates.

"Stupid, the crime of poisoning the Huns, I don't take it seriously." Liu Yan said righteously: "What I want is to save people, no matter how you say it, Yan Niang is also from Yizhou. Now that she is under criminal detention, what face does Liu have?"

All the counselors looked at each other, they were already dissatisfied with Yan Niang, and they were sure that Liu Yan would not be affected at this time, and they were too lazy to make suggestions, what's more, they wished that woman would suffer more.

Liu Yan also knew that he favored Nightmare Niang too much on weekdays, which made these people feel dissatisfied, so he sighed helplessly, looked at the young man with a spear at the end of the line, and asked, "General Zhang, can you help me? "

The young man who was named was wearing leather armor, held a spear, raised his eyes like torches, looked at Liu Yan, and said with fists in his hands: "This subordinate can't do anything."

Liu Yan's face darkened, and he said: "No, you have a way to help me, the respected master is the chief instructor of Dingjunfang, and now he is in Luoyang, with his help, it is not too easy to save a person from the guard. "

The face of the armored youth changed.

At this time, Liu Zhang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stood up and said, "Father, General Zhang's brotherly love is worth every penny. It's too wasteful to use it on a vulgar fan. I also ask my father to take it back."

Liu Yan narrowed his eyes and looked at his youngest son.

The eldest son, Liu Fan, was even more furious. He wanted to live forever, and when he saw his younger brother helping his subordinates to speak, he immediately lost his temper.

"Fourth brother, father didn't ask you to speak, so you should obediently keep your mouth shut, don't talk back and offend father."

Liu Zhang froze for a moment, and wanted to speak, but was stopped by the armored youth.

Zhang Ren looked gratefully at the young master Liu Zhang, and at the same time clasped his fists and said to Liu Yan: "Reporting to my lord, even if Zhang Mou came forward, my teacher and his old man would not agree to come forward to save people, unless Mrs. Zhang was falsely imprisoned, but Obviously not, is it?"

Liu Yan's complexion changed again and again, and finally he laughed and said, "Forget it, I have heard that Tong Yuan is a chivalrous and righteous man, and the disciples he taught are indeed extraordinary..." At the end, the smirk was not real. Laughing, obviously very dissatisfied with Zhang Ren's refusal to help.

There is really no way.

Liu Yan could only leave the eldest son Liu Fan alone, and said in a deep voice: "Find a way to visit Yan Niang, and give this to her, she will know what to do."

Liu Fan took the bamboo card from Liu Yan, and an imperceptible look of surprise flashed in his eyes, "Father, don't worry, this matter will be settled."

Liu Yan nodded slightly, covered his mouth and coughed heavily.

Seeing this, Liu Fan sneered, got up and left directly, without even showing any filial piety to help Liu Yan pour a cup of hot tea.

···
The next day.

Xu Shu and Sima Yi entered the palace with dark eyes to see Mr. Wei.

Wei Cheng was doing Tai Chi in the sun room, when he learned that Xu and Shu had arrived, he asked the female guard to take him to the imperial garden.

It was the first time for Xu Shu and Xu Shu to enter the imperial palace, and they were shocked to see the imperial garden wrapped in glass.

The imperial garden is as warm as spring, with flowers of all colors competing for splendor and blooming in full bloom.

"How is it? Did you find out any useful information?" Wei Cheng asked while punching.

Xu Shu bowed his hands and said, "According to what this nightmare mother said, there is indeed a legendary elixir of life, but..."

Wei Cheng's expression changed, he frowned and said, "Just what?"

Xu Shu went on to say: "It's just that this batch of pills is still being refined. According to the records she got, it takes 500 years to bake such a batch of pills. It has already started to be refined, almost 500 years ago, and this batch of elixir is called [Xu Fu]."

Wei Cheng opened his eyes wide, "Isn't Xu Fu alone?"

Xu Shu shook his head and replied: "To be precise, it is the collective name of three thousand boys and girls. In order to protect this furnace of elixir, these people have guarded Xu Fu's secret collection for generations. Gradually, people called them [Xu Fu].”

"I see."

Wei Cheng nodded thoughtfully, no wonder there are so many folk legends about Xu Fu, and there are also different versions of Xiaotian that have been handed down to this day.

At this time, Sima Yi suddenly asked: "Master, you don't seem to be very concerned about the so-called elixir of life?"

In fact, Xu Shu also had this question. The two of them originally thought that Wei Cheng would be overjoyed when he learned of the existence of the elixir of life, but in fact, Wei Cheng's performance was very flat from the beginning to the end.

Hearing this, Wei Cheng couldn't help laughing and said, "It's not that I don't care, but I'm afraid that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. There are too many legends about longevity in history, but how many are true? Better than Both Qin Shihuang and Gaozu couldn't escape life, old age, sickness and death, I don't think I can escape from vulgarity, so naturally I don't care so much."

After a pause, Wei Cheng said again: "However, in order to avoid unnecessary disputes, you still have to deal with this matter in a low-key manner. As for that woman and Liu Yan... find a way to solve it secretly afterwards, and don't let them have any excuses." Opportunity to challenge things."

"Here!"

···
That night.

Yan Niang was sent back to Liu Yan's residence safe and sound.

Seeing Yan Niang returned safely, Liu Yan called her over immediately and asked her about the prison in detail.

Nightmare Niang also looked bewildered, she just felt that she had slept for a long time, and when she woke up, she was limp.

I thought someone had drugged her, but after checking myself, I found that although the clothes on her body showed signs of being taken off, there was no sign of being violated or tortured.

The only suspicious place on the whole body is that there are a few inconspicuous red dots on the inside of the elbow, and I don't know what is left there.

Then there is the liquid from the urine. I don't know why there is a very strange smell. Other than that, there is nothing suspicious.

And according to Yan Niang's memories, after she entered the prison, she only drank a bowl of porridge, and experienced nothing else, as if she just fell asleep and woke up the next night, and then she was told that she was innocent freed.

After listening to Yan Niang's narration, Liu Yan always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what the problem was.

It was Liu Fan who suggested, "Father, the night is full of dreams. I suggest that we go directly to Qingzhou tomorrow. We have already made the necessary preparations. With the help of Wei's Lei Zhenzi, it will be easy to explode the secret storehouse."

Liu Yan looked down, nodded slightly, and agreed: "That's right, what Fan Er said is reasonable. There are a lot of strange things today, and there will be troubles again. Tomorrow we will rush to Laoshan, Qingzhou. We don't have much time to be a father. This time, no matter what, I will get the elixir of life."

Liu Fan bowed respectfully, and said in a sonorous tone: "Father, don't worry, the son will find the longevity medicine for father himself."

Liu Yan smiled in satisfaction, looked at Yan Niang, frowned and said: "You almost harmed us this time, and going north this time is your chance to make up for it. If something happens again, take care of your life."

After hearing the words, Yan Niang hurriedly put on a charming and enchanting smile, leaned against Liu Yan, and whispered in her ear: "The lord still doesn't believe in the loyalty of the slave family. For you, the slave family sent all their sons to the state and county." .”

Liu Yan sneered, rubbed his soft and delicate waist, and coughed softly at the eldest son Liu Fan who was beside him.

Liu Fan looked at Yan Niang who was smirking at him in his father's arms, suppressed the desire and anger in his heart, and Shi Shi suddenly withdrew.

bah~
The door closed, Liu Fan stood outside, clenched his fists.

Hearing the melodious voice behind him, Liu Fan gritted his teeth, took a few deep breaths, and then left angrily and unwillingly.

"When we leave the territory of Luoyang, the old guy's death date is almost here. The medicine of immortality and the woman belong to me, Liu Fan, alone!"
