Yutai Bi

Chapter 209
"Grandmother likes it, tell the girl to do it carefully, and then send it to honor you." Wei Xiaowan smiled openly, as if she had never cried except for a little red eyelid.

After eating and drinking tea, she took the girl and left.

Before Cen Sanniang could speak, Mrs. Du told Mother Yin: "Go and talk to the old lady of the second room. Ask him what he means. Our family's guards have all moved back to the mansion now, and hundreds of men are practicing in the front yard. No With his consent, if something happens, the Duke's Mansion cannot bear the responsibility."

Cen Sanniang smiled brightly, and she was not hungry for a while.

Suddenly Madam Du snorted and said, "Are you still blaming grandma in your heart?"

Cen Sanniang served her tea in a doggy manner: "How can there be! My admiration for my grandmother is like a torrent of water...Grandma, how do you know that Webster's came to deliver food for another purpose?"

Mrs. Du poked her on the head and scolded with a smile: "There is nothing to show courteousness to, either adultery or robbery. Don't even think about it, Mrs. Liu would be willing to let her honor me with a big plate of roasted beef? It's understandable if you don't have a routine Is it? In everything, you have to be courteous first and then soldiers. If it were you, you would have hurt your face and driven people away. Regardless of other people's face, Yan Sui went to the expedition, and Saburo gave him the best weapons and horses under the pressure of Shangshu. You can't face his daughter-in-law with a straight face."

Cen Sanniang blushed when she was told.She is as sophisticated as Mrs. Du when she handles the affairs of the rear house.All he wanted was to hate Wei Xiaowan.I forgot Du Sanlang for a while.

"Grandmother taught me a lesson. Sanniang knows what to do in the future." Cen Sanniang thanked Mrs. Du sincerely.

Mrs. Du blinked her eyes and said: "Yan Sui is a man, and he is thinking about his third brother in his heart. I'm afraid he won't be able to handle it. It's fine for you to lose your temper when you go back. The daughter-in-law is more aggressive, and he has more scruples, so that he won't be embarrassed by crying. Instead, it's a bad thing."

This is training your husband by decree!Cen Sanniang suppressed a smile and said, "Yes. My daughter-in-law will follow your orders."

She resigned from Mrs. Du and came out, rolling up her sleeves to make preparations along the way.Ah Qiu and Xia Chu followed her and asked her curiously, "Young Madam, what are you doing?"

Cen Sanniang held her head high: "Be a shrew!"

There was a chuckle from the side.Cen Sanniang was startled: "Who?"

Danhua came out from behind the pillar, bowed his knees and saluted, with a smile on his face: "Young Madam, do you need help from your servant?"

Cen Sanniang was startled, and said awkwardly: "Thank you very much. This matter... I will do it myself."

Danhua was not annoyed, and stretched out his palms in front of her: "The tendons are loose, and even a strong person will be weak for twelve hours after taking it. Do you need it, Young Madam?"

want!Why not!Even if it is not used against Du Yansui, it might be useful in the future.Cen Sanniang answered bluntly: "Miss Danhua, thank you very much."

She took the Ruanjin powder and left with the girl.

Danhua looked at her back and sighed softly: "The imperial court is going to use troops against Tubo. How long will it take for the two of you to be like this?"

Turn around the corridor.Ah Qiu asked Cen Sanniang nervously: "Could it be poison?"

Cen Sanniang curled her lips and said, "The poison won't be...Aqiu, go to the kitchen and bring a chicken."

Back in the courtyard, Du Yansui actually went to look for Hei Qi.Cen Sanniang shook some powder and fed it to the chicken. After a cup of tea, the chicken walked sideways as if drunk, and fell limp on the ground.

The three masters and servants looked at the chicken for a long time. The chicken was alive, but it couldn't stand up.

Cen Sanniang cheered up: "Go and make a pot of tea!"

She was ready to stop and just waited for Du Yansui to come back to drink.

Time passed little by little, and the night was already deep.

Du Yansui has not come back yet.Cen Sanniang yawned, looked at the tea in the thermos and thought in disappointment, I won't bother him today.After washing up, she changed her clothes and went to bed, wondering in a daze, what made him talk to Hei Qi for so long.

The Jiangnan rebellion has subsided.According to Du Yansui's character, Wu Zhaoyi in the palace will not move, and he will not take the initiative to plan how to pull the queen down and trample the Cui family to death.No matter what this matter is, Wu Zhaoyi is more eager than him.

She fell asleep vaguely, and after an unknown amount of time, she heard the sound of the door opening.The girls are already used to not keeping vigil.Fengchun is on duty tonight, and when Du Yansui comes back, she will go back to the east chamber to rest.

A small sheep's horn lamp was lit on a cabinet in the corner.Cen Sanniang opened her eyes and saw Du Yansui's figure through the thin curtain. She muttered, "You're back? What's the matter?"

"It's nothing serious, go to bed first, and I'll come after I wash up." Du Yansui was a little thirsty, so he took out the teapot from the warm cover on the table and poured a glass of water.

Cen Sanniang hummed in a daze, turned over and continued to sleep, completely forgetting that the tea had been added.

Du Yansui took a sip, frowned, turned around and vomited.He put down the teacup, lifted the lid of the pot and smelled it, and put it down gently, wondering and uncertain.

The smell couldn't hide it from him.Who actually put Ruanjin powder in the tea?He thought of Cui Mengdong from Qujiangli.Cui Mengdong drowned helplessly, and when he boarded the boat, Danhua pointed at him with a crossbow and drank a cup of tea with loose tendons.It is impossible for Cen Sanniang to have this kind of medicine. Apart from Hei Qi, the only one in the mansion is Danhua.

Du Yansui turned around and went to the clean room to wash up. When she came out, she turned on the light and went to bed, and slipped the dagger under the pillow.

Cen Sanniang habitually turned over and fell on his chest, with one leg resting on him.

Du Yansui put his arm around her, thought for a while, then moved his hand to her neck and pressed it lightly.Cen Sanniang slept even more deeply.He carefully removed her legs, moved her to his side, pulled the quilt over and covered her.

After waiting for a long time, Du Yansui opened his mouth and yawned, doubting his judgment a little.Obviously, Cen Sanniang never drank tea.He turned his face to look at Cen Sanniang, thinking, could it be that she put the medicine?Doubts are doubts, but he dare not really fall asleep.

At this moment, there was a light knock from the rear window.The sound was extremely soft, like a knife piercing paper, with a bang, and then there was no movement.

Du Yansui touched the dagger under the pillow with one hand, and looked coldly at the rear window.

In the faint night, a figure of a person was reflected by the rear window, and a thin bamboo tube quietly poked in through the gap at the angle of the window screen.Du Yansui pulled the quilt to cover her mouth and nose.Thinking coldly, even using the misty smoke, is it because he is afraid that he did not drink the cup of Ruanjinsan?

After a cup of tea, the rear window was opened, and a slender figure stepped in gently.

It's Danhua.Du Yansui slowly tore off the quilt and closed her eyes.

Danhua walked to the table, picked up the cup and looked at it.There is still a little tea at the bottom of the cup.She fell into her hand and licked it with her tongue to make sure that Ruanjinsan had been put in.She put down the glass and walked to the bed and raised the thin curtain.

Du Yansui and Cen Sanniang were fast asleep.He slept in the outer room, his right hand passed under Cen Sanniang's neck to embrace her, lying quietly.

Dan Hua looked at Du Yansui obsessively, listened to his steady breathing, and sat down slowly.She reached out to touch his face, but stopped in mid-air, sighed softly, and retracted it again.

"Kongqing, I won't harm you. It's better to let you know what's going on in your heart." Danhua murmured, took out a water-soaked handkerchief from his waist and put it on his face.

First use the smoke, and then use the cold handkerchief to wake himself up, what exactly does Danhua want to do?Du Yansui waited and waited, frowning, and woke up. The moment his eyes opened, he seemed to be startled, but also seemed to be weak all over. He looked at Danhua in shock and anger: "You..."

Danhua put his hand on his lips, and said softly: "Don't shout, I have something to tell you."

Du Yansui breathed heavily: "Have you taken Ruanjinsan?"

Danhua withdrew her hand, feeling a little helpless: "Young Madam wants to tease you, I'm just pushing the boat along..." She laughed at herself, "If I put it in the tea, you won't be fooled no matter what. Yes, even if you know, maybe you will drink it and let her make fun of it."

Du Yansui said coldly: "You coax her to design me, what exactly do you want to do?"

Danhua lowered his head: "I won't harm you. I just made this move because I was afraid that you would disagree."

She took out a bamboo tube from her waist and said in a low voice, "Ashina Helu, the Western Turkic people, proclaimed himself Shaboluo Khan. He built a dental tent in Qianquan, and frequently harassed the cities in the frontier. Zhaoyi delivered the news. , the emperor wants to continue to use you by taking advantage of the remaining prestige in suppressing the rebellion in the south of the Yangtze River. Although Liu Xiang and Wang Xiang were cut off in the court, only Wei Xiang was cut. Empress Cui's greatest reliance is in the army. There are countless old officials and civil officials in the previous dynasty, but they can be defeated one by one. The old Duke Yuchi has long been disarmed and retired from the government. However, Li Ji, the British Duke, was given a surname by the late emperor, and he is loyal to the queen. The British Duke is old, and he recommended his cronies as the chief officer of the army. The master means to make you sick for a while field. Tubo will cooperate with the Western Turkic Khan to raise troops. Wait until the battle is unfavorable, and then let you lead the army."

Du Yansui sneered: "Just to bring down the queen...have they thought about how many people will die?"

Dan Hua bit her lip and said, "In my eyes, I only hope that you will never go to the battlefield, and just live a good life."

"I have always wondered why the lord suddenly reconciled with Zhaoyi. Is it really because the lord has a deep affection for her? I have been with the lord for many years. Do you know the reason?" Du Yansui changed his tone, his tone He calmed down, "The reason why I help Wu Zhaoyi and the prince is because the Du family and the Cui family are incompatible. Danhua, we are also brothers and sisters of the same school, and we grew up together since childhood. I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, what are you waiting for?" Now that Grandmother Tian is gone, I will also follow the example of Old Duke Yuchi and be an idle Duke. He will not take on errands and will not meddle in political affairs. If the prince wants to use me, he must let me know."

Danhua said softly: "You have been with the lord for eight or nine years, and you can't figure out his mind, let alone me. All I know is that I will do whatever you ask me to do if you are sent to the battlefield one day later."
