Chapter 245
Thinking about what happened recently, Shen Qinglan had a headache.

Tao Guan'er looked at Sister Shen who remained silent, and felt unspeakably uncomfortable.

"Sister Shen, will you forgive the prince?"

"I don't know, I'm just a little scared..."

Fu'er came in with some melons and fruits, and said, "Miss, you haven't drank much water all day, why don't you eat some fruits."

"Well, put it down, and bring some candied fruit."

"Yes."

Tao Guan'er was usually greedy, and he needed to eat something when he came to Wenlan Courtyard, but he didn't move when he saw melons and fruits today.

"Sister Shen... I know it won't be that easy for you. If you have anything to do, just ask me, and I will do my best."

As Tao Guan'er said, her eyes dimmed, as if she had made up her mind.

Shen Qinglan smiled, "Thank you, Taoguaner."

Tao Guan'er also smiled, "Sister, why are you being so polite to me..."

After a while, Fu'er brought in vegetable porridge and side dishes, as well as a small dish of freshly dried candied fruit.

Shen Qinglan put down the spoon after taking a few sips and wiped her mouth.

"Miss, you only took a few mouthfuls, eat some more." Fu'er advised.

"I don't want to drink... I don't have an appetite... Let's make some fruit tea." Shen Qinglan said.

"Sister Shen, your appetite is poor now, and you haven't eaten much today, so it's better not to drink tea." Tao Guan'er finished persuading, then sighed again, and said: "Although my sister is kind-hearted, she is also a decisive person. Now that you have been bullied, why do you have to embarrass yourself? You should pay it back, and you should get revenge."

"Miss, Tao Guan'er is right!" Fu'er looked filled with righteous indignation, "We should take revenge, we should take revenge! I would rather let the world down than let the world down on me!"

Shen Qinglan couldn't help laughing, "You are right."

"Yeah!" Tao Guan'er nodded heavily, "Sister Shen, what are you going to do? Do you need my help? Although I, Tao Guan'er, are not good at martial arts, I'm still very good at using poison as a concealed weapon!"

"Tch...you're bragging again." Fu'er still had an expression of disbelief.

"Who's bragging! Ask Sister Shen if you don't believe me, I'm really good!" Tao Guan'er was also unconvinced.

"You only raise a few snakes, and tinker with some broken things every day. The hollow carved gold bracelets you made last time were useless when Miss Changqing was embarrassing you in Prince Heng's Mansion," Fu'er said.

"Uh...they have a large number of people, and that bracelet is only more useful when fighting alone." Tao Guan'er said.

Shen Qinglan thought for a while, glanced out the window, and gave Fuer a wink, Fuer nodded, and then left the room.

Seeing Fu'er going out to let the wind go, Tao Guan'er thought that Sister Shen must have some plans, so she quickly asked, "Sister Shen, what are your orders?"

"Tao Guaner, help me make a kind of poison." Shen Qinglan said.

"What poison?" Tao Guan'er was a little excited.

"A kind of poison that doesn't take people's lives, but only makes people stupid, and it can't be tested with silver needles."

"Becoming stupid? There are ready-made ones. You just need to add weak cloud grass to the medicinal materials. Because it is not considered poison, it will not be tested by silver needles."

Shen Qinglan took a long breath and asked, "It sounds good, but the person who is drugged needs to be a drug patient first, right?"

"Well, it can be said that it doesn't matter whether it's wound medicine or tonic." Tao Guan'er replied.

"Then I understand, let's use this weak cloud grass. Also, can people who have been planted with weak cloud grass be cured?" Shen Qinglan asked again.

"Weak Cloud Grass is not created once, it needs to be used for a long time, and it will make people completely stupid in about half a year, and it is hard to save the gods. Not many people know about this medicine, even the imperial physicians in the palace may not know it, only us Only those who study the use of poison know a thing or two." Tao Guan'er said.

"Ah."
-
After recuperating for a while, Shen Qinglan's body recovered.

Zhao Shun often sent people to visit, and Shen Qinglan often heard the nightingale's cry at night, but she ignored it.

On this day, the prince of Prince Heng's Mansion and Zhao Shun came to visit Shen's mansion in person to discuss the mid-autumn wedding. Shen Qinglan showed up a little and said he was unwell and left.

King Heng only thought that the county magistrate was ashamed to talk about marriage, so he didn't take it to heart.

Zhao Shun also breathed a sigh of relief, he thought that Shen Qinglan would let the Shen family postpone the engagement.

Coming out of Fuxi Hall, Shen Qinglan did not go back to Wenlan Academy, but went to Shoukang Academy, and met Ye Shuyue on the way.

"Sisi? I heard that you were unwell a few days ago, and my sister-in-law didn't go to see you. Don't you blame my sister-in-law?" Ye Shuyue asked with a smile, and then said: "You look good today, is it because you want to talk to cousin Jian? Discuss marriage?"

Shen Qinglan smiled and asked, "Where is sister-in-law going?"

"Uncle and cousin are here, I should pay a visit. What? Have they left already?" Ye Shuyue asked.

"No, I'm just not feeling well, so I came out first." Shen Qinglan said.

Ye Shuyue came closer and held her hand, "You still have to take care of it yourself. I don't have the energy to take care of family affairs these days, so I'll have to worry about you and your mother-in-law."

"Sister-in-law, what is this saying? We are all a family, why bother to see outsiders like this? Sister-in-law, I don't think you look very good, are you embarrassed?" Shen Qinglan asked.

Ye Shuyue sighed, and said in a low voice: "Sister Zhi always goes to Lanxi Courtyard to chat with me during this time. I know she has bad intentions, so it takes a lot of energy to deal with it."

"Sister Zhi, doesn't she often have headaches recently? Why do you still go to Lanxi Hospital?"

"She said she would help your second elder brother take good care of me, so she didn't slack off when she was sick, and I couldn't refuse. I can't, let her show courtesy in front of my grandmother. My grandmother is getting old, so it's not easy to let her old man worry about it."

"Well, sister-in-law is worrying. In the future, when sister Zhi comes to the door, sister-in-law doesn't need to pay attention. I have my own way."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you. I'm too tired to deal with it. Sisi, I'm going to pay my respects to my uncle first."

"Well, sister-in-law, let's go."

Shen Qinglan went straight to the side room of Shoukang Courtyard. Shen Qingzhi was playing the piano leisurely, and incense was still burning in the incense burner.

"Sister Zhi, you are so elegant."

"Sister is here, please take a seat. Yuhan, go and pour some tea."

Shen Qingzhi got up quickly, wearing a very elegant green dress, and the scars on her face also faded a bit.

"No need, Sister Zhi, you are good at tea art. My sister came here today to ask for a cup of tea from my sister. Sister, you must not be unwilling?"

"How come?" Shen Qingzhi smiled sweetly, "I'm just going to make tea for my sister, what kind of tea does my sister want to drink?"

"It doesn't matter, as long as the tea made by sister Zhi is sure to be good."

With Shen Qinglan acting like this, Shen Qingzhi couldn't figure out her intentions.
