Chapter 192 Surprise
Shen Xinniang lowered her eyes, "The talisman is time-sensitive, and it pays attention to the distance. The farther the distance, the weaker the effect. It is not easy to use all the time."

Fang Yan took a sip of tea, "The bait has been sprinkled, what will be the effect?"

Shen Xinniang shook her head, "There is no definite order for everything, let's see and do it."

"What is the relationship between Master Ziyang and the Yellow Taoist? Judging from his tone, it is not a fake, but he really wants to meet and listen to what the Yellow Taoist has to say." Fang Yan said with deep eyes.

Shen Xinniang's face was a little dazed, "The time when Taoist Huang turned his back on his teacher's school was just before and after Lingshan was slaughtered. Do you think there is a connection between them?"

Fang Yan didn't speak, but raised his hand to hold her slightly cold hand, "Don't think too much. Even if it's related, it's not a surprise. When Yu Tai led the troops to Lingshan, Zhang Mingzhi was already by his side. I think the news he secretly released at that time was so tempting that many practitioners who were eager for quick success couldn't help but go to be an accomplice."

Shen Xinniang nodded. She is very confident in the medicine made from white spring water. With such a tempting bait, will the fish not take the bait?

Fang Yan sipped refreshments before leaving with Shen Xinniang. On the carriage back home, he shook his head and sighed, "I thought the refreshments in Mingxiangju were good, but now it's hard to drink. Xin'er really raised my mouth." Tricky."

Shen Xinniang glanced at him, "It's easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. This is not good. In the future, it is better for the prince to be less picky about eating and drinking."

Hearing this, Fang Yan frowned, and stretched out his hand to hug her into his arms, "How can that be done? Didn't Xin'er say that people depend on food? Xin'er is the sky now, and I can't stop."

"Are you really talking about dim sum?" Shen Xinniang raised her eyebrows.

Fang Yan smiled lightly, lowered his head to hold her soft and fragrant lips, as if tasting the taste on her vermilion lips, enjoying it, and murmured softly: "What do you think?"

"Uncle Guo's shoulder injury has always been bad, and Pindao has trouble sleeping and eating in his heart. Now this secret medicine has been formulated, and the effect is very good. Please try it, Uncle Guo?" Lu Bei also verified the efficacy of the medicine on himself. From now on, I don't dare to waste it. There was not much ointment in the small porcelain bottle with a mouth slightly bigger than a copper coin. If I continue to waste it, I don't know if it will be enough for Uncle Guo. At that time, he dedicated the putrefaction and muscle regeneration cream to Yu Tai.

Yu Tai took the ointment and sniffed it lightly. The so-called long-term illness makes a good doctor. The sword wound on his shoulder has tortured him a lot. Now he can also distinguish the quality of the medicine for trauma.

Smelling the quiet medicinal fragrance, he couldn't help nodding his head again and again, "Daoist Lu has a heart."

Lu Bei bowed and nodded, "Uncle Guo, let's try it first."

"Let's try it?" Yu Tai's eyes were a little hesitant. The medicines he used have always been in the hands of Zhang Mingzhi. Although they are all five guardians around him, Zhang Mingzhi is still the person he trusts the most. "If you don't wait for Daoist Zhang When you come back, see what you're talking about."

It's not a tone of discussion, but he has already planned to do so.

Lu Bei was a little anxious. He had already tried the miraculous effect of this medicine. If Zhang Mingzhi came back and found the miraculous effect, so as to deliberately spoil his good deeds, what should he do?
"Uncle Guo, Taoist Zhang is very skilled in medicine, but he seems to be quite helpless for this sword wound. This ointment is extremely rare, and the poor Taoist tried his best to concoct it. The poor Taoist has tried it himself, and the medicine is very effective. " Lu Bei sighed lightly, and seemed to have something to say, "Zhang Daochang seems to be distracted by other things recently. Uncle Guo really wants to wait for Zhang Daochang to come back?"

Hearing this, Yu Tai took a deep look at Lu Bei, with unclear meaning in his eyes.

Lu Bei was also a little nervous. Uncle Yu trusted Zhang Mingzhi the most. He knew very well that if he questioned Zhang Mingzhi in front of Uncle Yu, if he was a little careless, he would make Uncle Yu hate him.

"If Uncle Guo doesn't believe it, Pindao can show Uncle Guo again now." Lu Bei took out his dagger and quickly cut a cut on his finger.

He dipped a very small amount of ointment and applied it on the wound. Even though he had tried it, he was still a little apprehensive, afraid of accidents.

However, it was obvious that the ointment had very strong medicinal properties, and the blood on his hand stopped in a short while.

He moved his hand a little in front of Uncle Yu, and Uncle Yu squinted his eyes for a closer look, the wound that seemed to be deep just now seemed much shallower now.

"There is such a magic medicine?" Uncle Yu Guo's tone was not lacking in admiration.

Lu Bei bowed and said nothing, waiting for Uncle Yu to test the medicine himself.

"Then..." Uncle Yu Guo said hesitantly, "Don't wait for Daoist Zhang, let's try it."

Lu Bei was overjoyed, and hurried forward to help Uncle Yu take off his shirt, carefully dipped some ointment with his fingertips, and applied it on the shoulder that still had obvious scars.

A cool feeling melted away with Lu Bei's fingertips on his shoulders.A faint medicinal fragrance permeates the nose, slightly bitter with fragrance, which is more refreshing and nostalgic than the sweet and greasy fragrance.

Wait for Lu Bei to carefully apply the wound.

Uncle Yu's eyes widened in astonishment, and he couldn't help but move his shoulders. The shock on his face became more intense.

"It really works wonders!"

Lu Bei was already happy, but with a modest smile on his face, "Mr. Zhang was the most proficient in medicine and pharmacology. Maybe it's because of other troubles recently, so it's hard to study carefully?"

Yu Tai shook the small porcelain bottle in his hand, "What Daoist Lu said is that if the sword wound that has bothered me for so long is really healed, Daoist Lu must have contributed. If Daoist Lu wants any reward, just ask. It's just that you are the most powerful by my side." , the most trusted person, don't crowd out and suspect each other!"

The last sentence is quite meaningful.

Lu Bei restrained his complacency, and hurriedly cupped his hands, "Don't dare, don't worry, Uncle Guo."

Yu Tai smiled, "This medicine is so hard to come by, it takes a lot of effort to get it, I'll ask someone to deliver the reward silver to Taoist Lu's room if I need something."

"I don't dare to take credit for what's my job." Lu Bei bowed and said.

"You don't have to be polite, Daoist!" Yu Tai's shoulders were finally not the same as before, always aching like that, the cool feeling was so refreshing, it made him feel better, and the smiles on his face were even more.

Not long after Lu Bei left, he sent someone to carry several boxes of coins to Taoist Lu's room.

Lu Bei was full of joy, even though Uncle Guo didn't value him more than Zhang Mingzhi because of his donation of medicine, but he also knew very well that a thousand miles could not be reached without taking small steps, Zhang Mingzhi had followed Uncle Yu for a long time after all. With a little bit of hard work, he will eventually be able to replace Zhang Mingzhi's No. 1 position next to Uncle Yu.

Unlike Lu Bei who was full of joy at this time, Fang Yan was not very happy at this time.

"Uncle, the Empress Dowager found out about your request to establish a concubine, so she insisted on taking this matter over..." The little emperor looked bitterly at Fang Yan, who was full of displeasure.

Fang Yan nodded slightly, "I know."

"Uncle wants to make Mrs. Shen a concubine. The Queen Mother was very wary of Mrs. Shen from the very beginning, and she would definitely not agree. If uncle directly invites guests to a banquet and announces in public, it's better to act first!" The little emperor suggested.

Fang Yan smiled lightly, but did not speak.

"Uncle, are you unhappy?" The little emperor stared at a pair of big pure eyes, asking cautiously but very sharply.

"No, the Holy Majesty doesn't have to worry." Fang Yan comforted the emperor.

After not staying in the palace for a long time, he returned to the mansion.

When he saw Shen Xinniang sitting flipping through the books in the main room of the main courtyard, he was in a daze for a while.

Originally, he wanted to give her a surprise, but he didn't want another accident to happen on the way.The Empress Dowager intervened in his concubine establishment under the pretext of "the parents are absent, and the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother". Out of common sense, it is not easy to refute even the little emperor. After all, the little emperor is his nephew in terms of seniority. In his marriage, the queen mother intervened, and no one else could say anything.

Shen Xinniang suddenly raised her head and looked at the door, "Why did you stand there for so long without moving?"

Fang Yan twitched the corner of his mouth, "It's nothing, just looking at you, I lost my mind for a while."

"Is this a compliment?" Shen Xinniang asked.

"It's from the heart, how can it be called a compliment?" Fang Yan approached, raised his hand and landed on her shoulder, and gently squeezed her shoulder, "What are you doing?"

"The idle book I found in your study." Shen Xiniang raised the book in her hand, "I remember when you were young, you told this story. At that time, you always felt that you were different from others, and you always knew the things outside Lingshan that no one else knew. As for the matter, I only know now that there are many books in the imperial collection, even if you are erudite, it is also a matter of course, it is nothing serious."

Her tone was soft, originally he would laugh when he heard the words, but now he couldn't laugh at all, he just felt depressed, "Yeah, I'm nothing special at all."

The tone is quite irritated.

Shen Xinniang looked up at him when she heard the words, "What's wrong?"

It was only then that Fang Yan realized that he had brought out his emotions. He hadn't told her what he wanted to make her a concubine, but it was a surprise for her.

Now the surprise is so destructive, how can he speak?
"It's okay, there are inevitably troubles in the court."

"There are troubles in the court every day, but I have never seen you bring back the emotions outside. People say that Prince Qi is cold-faced and never leaks his emotions. Could it be a misinformation?" Shen Xinniang's black and white eyes were fixed To see him.
