Capture the Jade: Chapter 47 He was so relieved to put the medicine jar in his arms...

Lin Chengyou looked at Xiao Ya strangely. When he came here, he had imagined what the spirit of the Teng Yuyi sword would look like. He thought it was a beautiful elves, but he never expected to be a bad old man. Forget about the bad old man, his manners are still so unscrupulous.

He watched it for a while and couldn't help but say, "Hey, what's your name?"

Xiaoya rolled around excitedly in the bath like a live fish: "Didn't Mrs. Teng tell you? The old man's name is Xiaoya, the one who knows no bounds. The old man has been in the sword for hundreds of years, and his spirit Strength has never recovered so quickly. Your bath soup is pure and yang, and it can cleanse the yin and foul smell of evil spirits. Wow, hahaha, I like it so much. I had a great time taking this bath tonight. !"

Teng Yuyi: "…"

Lin Chengyou: "..."

He glanced at Teng Yuyi, is this the artifact you treat as a treasure? A little disrespectful to the old.

Teng Yuyi felt ashamed for a long time, and frowned and knocked on the urn body: "You take a bath as soon as you take a bath, can you...don't talk so much."

Xiaoya simply put his arms behind his head, and Yuzai floated on his back in the water, saying proudly, "Miss Teng, I only want his bath soup in the future, and I don't want anyone else's."

Lin Chengyou raised his eyebrows, it was really enough, this time, before the offering was finished, he was thinking about the next one.

He interrupted Xiao Ya mercilessly: "Don't be delusional! Today is just a stopgap measure, next time it won't work."

Teng Yuyi also said "don't think about it" in her heart, she was almost exhausted trying to get Lin Chengyou's bath soup, and there is absolutely no next time. After a few days, Jue Sage and Abandoned Wisdom returned, and the bathing soup had its own place.

Xiao Ya was not happy anymore, he dived into the water, gulped down a lot of bath soup, and stuck his head out from the water: "I don't care, old man, I want this."

Teng Yuyi glared at him sideways: "You're blushing, you must have recovered all your spiritual power, come out, someone will come later.

Xiao Ya reluctantly rubbed it hard, as if to cleanse the demonic energy in her stomach, and then she threw her head down and filled her stomach with the bath soup. Finally, she was so addicted to it that she burrowed into the sword body with no end in sight.

Teng Yuyi took out the small sword, wiped it clean and put it in the sleeve. After this incident, she really believed that Lin Chengyou just missed it, but she was just a little surprised. Fortunately, he was willing to make amends in time, otherwise Xiaoya would suffer.

She looked at Lin Chengyou, the wound on his arm was probably not yet healed, and the head of his clothes was wrapped in yarn.

Teng Yu thought about it for a while, and took out her jar of the treasured Hu medicine from her sleeve. In fact, she wanted to repay Lin Chengyou since she came out of Caifeng Tower safely, but unfortunately she never found a chance. This medicine is extremely rare. Even Grandpa only collected one jar. I wanted to keep it for self-defense, so why don't I take this opportunity to give it to Lin Chengyou. Although Lin Chengyou is not short of golden medicine, it is said that this medicine is much stronger than the medicine in the palace. After using it a few times, Lin Chengyou may be fine.

"Sir—" She held the medicine jar in her hand and spoke kindly.

Lin Chengyou picked up the wet wine urn, got up and said: "Okay, this is done. I forgot to tell you, your old slave named Duanfu was detained by me, and will be locked in the firewood room tonight. "

Teng Yuyi's smile froze. She wondered why she had never seen Duanfu. It turned out that she was trapped by Lin Chengyou. With Duanfu's skill, it was impossible for him to be held by several guards. Lin Chengyou must have set it up in advance to deal with Duanfu. trap.

Seeing Lin Chengyou walking away, she hurriedly chased after him: "Lin Chengyou, it's not right to steal your bath soup, but it's my idea, Duanfu is just following orders."

Lin Chengyou smiled and said: "Your master and servant are more abominable than the other. The master wants to steal the bath soup, and the people below do not talk about discouraging the master's evil deeds, but actually help Zhou to abuse him. Isn't it right that such a slave has suffered for the master? Since it fell into my hands Here, let’s not talk about making him suffer once.”

Teng Yuyi felt a chill in her heart, it was not worth being locked up in the firewood room. Could it be that he still wanted to execute Duanfu?

"Duanfu has been by my side for ten years, and he has always been loyal. As long as it is my order, he will do it, even if the sword is in flames. I really don't blame him. It's me who hates me. If you want to make trouble, go straight to me. Come on."

Lin Chengyou paused for a while. When the two met in the afternoon, she had a smile on her face, but she was thinking about plotting against him, first splashing him with Pu Tao wine, and then letting the servant sneak into Feiyi Pavilion to steal his bath soup, hate him He was unprepared for her, and he deliberately did not avoid her wine sack because he was worried that she would be injured by the sharp stone under his feet.

When he thought about this, the fire in his heart swelled upwards.

"Teng Yuyi, don't I know you yet? No matter how good you say it right now, next time you still dare to plot against me. Even if you say something shattering today, it won't end like that!"

Teng Yuyi choked, Lin Chengyou knew that she was protecting her shortcomings, so she took Duanfu to open the knife. Even if he directly poisoned her like last time, she would not suffer like this.

She was embarrassed and annoyed, but after thinking about it carefully, she was at fault for this matter. If it was her, she would feel humiliated by someone stealing the bath soup.

As soon as I feel that I am wrong, my voice is not so strong.

She glanced at his back, chased after him and forcibly stopped in front of him, smiled and said, "Sir, I can guarantee that there will never be another time. You don't know Duanfu's temperament, he only has the master in his heart, what can you do? Punishing him, he doesn't know where he is wrong. Since the prince wants to prevent future troubles, it is not like me, the master, who is liquidated—"

Lin Chengyou refused to stop, only smiled and said, "You are so protective of your shortcomings, doesn't punishing Duanfu equal to liquidation with you?"

Teng Yuyi reasoned with him: "The law is divided into master and accomplice. The master is here, why should the prince embarrass a servant. Tell me, how can this matter be exposed? As long as the prince releases Duanfu immediately, I will punishable."

Punish her, how will he punish? Lock her in the woodshed or mute her again?

He couldn't do anything, and he could only punish Duanfu.

He turned his head to look at her: "If you talk more, I will throw your good loyal servant into the prison of Dali Temple."

"You—" Teng Yuyi's heart burst into flames.

Lin Chengyou was about to turn her head when she suddenly saw something in her hand: "What is this?"

Teng Yuyi looked down and realized that she had been holding the medicine jar. She knew that Lin Chengyou was going to torture Duanfu, so she would not take the medicine out.

He wanted to take the medicine jar back, but suddenly changed his mind: "I saw that Shizi's arm injury was not healed, and I remembered that I was carrying a jar of Hu medicine, which is commonly used in my grandfather's army, saying that it can relieve itching and rot. —”

"For me?"

Teng Yuyi snorted, and handed the medicine to Lin Chengyou. Seeing that he didn't take it, she said angrily, "Don't worry, it's not poison. The last time Shizi saved my life, and tonight he helped Xiaoya and me. I’m very busy, I’m grateful, I’ve wanted to repay one or two for a long time, this medicine is tough, but the healing effect is very good, if the prince doesn’t dislike it, you can take it back and try it.”

Lin Chengyou was silent for a while, then took the round medicine jar over, glanced at her, and suddenly turned around and walked away, stuffing the medicine jar into his arms as he walked: "Thanks."

"Lin Chengyou—" Before Teng Yuyi could catch up, Lin Chengyou climbed up against the wall and disappeared.

Teng Yu's eyes were so angry that you accepted my gift, but you let Duanfu go.

What should I do now? Lin Chengyou refuses to eat hard and soft. Duanfu falls into his hands. I don't know what kind of crime she will suffer. Even if she comes up with a countermeasure immediately, she must be able to pass the news first. She staggered a few steps to mobilize the people under her command, and suddenly heard the footsteps of the guards approaching. Even if she was worried about Duanfu, she could only go back over the wall first.

As soon as Lin Chengyou returned to Feiyi Pavilion, Kuan Nu came over and said, "Sir, what should I do with the servant in the firewood room?"

"Let it go."

Kuan Nu was stunned. In order to catch this man, the prince specially mobilized two guards with the best martial arts around him. Several people cooperated inside and outside. It took a lot of effort to catch this man. ?

He raised his head suspiciously, and saw at a glance that the little master was a little absent-minded, and he didn't dare to ask any more questions.

Lin Chengyou lay down on the couch in front of the window, raised the medicine jar in his hand and looked at it. The jar was small, very delicate and lovely. The glaze was icy and clear, decorated with red and blue pastels. , should be held in Teng Yuyi's hand for a long time.

He unscrewed the lid of the jar and smelled it. As Teng Yuyi had said, it contained high-quality Hu medicine.

He had just wrapped a layer of gauze on his arms and covered it with clothes because he was afraid that it would be too late after the bath. It was hard to see the clues if he was not careful, but looking at Teng Yuyi's posture, he not only saw that he was not healed, but also thought about it for a long time. Give him the medicine can. There are not a few cans of such good medicine in Chang'an. Teng Yuyi can keep it for self-defense. Even in order to repay his bath soup, she can give him something else. In the end, she still gave him the Hu medicine.

He rubbed the medicine jar and thought, she was bad enough when she was bad, and good enough when she was good.

However, his injury is almost healed, no matter how good the medicine is, he won't need it anymore.

He turned over, put the medicine jar aside, and went to the bathroom to wash himself.

When I came out, I was thinking about something next to me, but I couldn't hold it back, and my eyes slipped to the couch again. He said: Hey, if you throw me here, aren't you afraid that I will break?

Lin Chengyou glanced at it.

After a while, I took another look, and finally I couldn't help walking to the couch to pick up the medicine jar. I thought to myself, although he couldn't use the medicine, it would be a pity if it broke. I found a place to lock it up, and walked around the house twice, but I didn't see a suitable box for a while.

Why don't you just put it on your body for a night. Thinking of this, he put the medicine jar into his arms with peace of mind, and fell asleep.

***

Teng Yuyi stumbled to sleep in the middle of the night with the puppet in her arms. Because she couldn't put Duanfu in her heart, she woke up before dawn in the morning. She went downstairs to find out the news in person, but Duanfu took the initiative to come to Yueminglou to find her.

Duanfu told what happened last night.

Lin Chengyou did set a trap to trap him, but he was released after only a short period of time.

Teng Yuyi was startled, looked left and right at Duan Fu, Duan Fu was actually unscathed.

She was puzzled. Judging from Lin Chengyou's posture last night, Duanfu would not be able to escape a humiliation, so how could he just do it. After thinking for a while, although I didn't understand why Lin Chengyou suddenly changed his mind, this matter finally passed without any risk.

If Lin Chengyou sincerely embarrassed them, the matter of stealing the bath soup might turn into something. It can be seen that this person is hateful, but his heart is not bad at all.

"Well, our master and servant owe Lin Chengyou another favor. In addition to the Caifenglou matter, we will meet Lin Chengyou in the future and be more polite than the first few days. If he has any emergency in the future, we must not Stand by and watch."

Duanfu responded and asked, "The bath soup of the Prince of Chun'an was taken away by the prince last night. Do you want the old slave to get it?"

"No need, Xiaoyajian is all right."

"The bath soup hasn't been delivered to the lady, why is this sword going to be fine?"

"This—" Teng Yuyi's face flashed a trace of embarrassment, and then she said casually, "It's okay if it's okay, Duanfu, you're fine, you don't need to worry about these things. You go to breakfast first, today you just need to watch It's good to have Lu Zhaoan, and I will make arrangements for others.

Duanfu has always been taciturn, so he didn't ask any more questions now, nodded and stepped back.

***

Today is the official birthday banquet, and people are busy before dawn. Such a big business, and there was a lot of buzz early in the morning.

At noon, suddenly a line of Jinwuwei came galloping to report, saying that the sage and the queen came to celebrate their birthday in person, and that the royal carriage would soon go to Bieye.

The villa suddenly boiled, and all the guests were afraid of losing their honor in front of the royal family, so they were so scared that they went back to their rooms to tidy up their clothes. meet.

The emperor and empress were unusually close, so as soon as they came, they ordered a banquet, and the banquet was set up by the Lotus Pool, and the ministers and relatives were given the same seat.

Many of the guests were meeting the Holy Spirit for the first time. After entering the table, they were so frightened that they dared not even move the cup and chopsticks.

The queen also ordered the maids to bring out the fresh peaches that were picked up in the palace.

"I brought it from the palace. In previous years, it didn't ripen until the end of March. This year, I don't know what auspiciousness is, but I got it in the middle of March. Take it and divide it. The fruit is more delicious when it is fresh than pickled."

The maids carried bamboo cages and distributed peaches with dew on the branches and leaves to everyone on the table. Some of the wives and daughters of officials from other places sat far away, and it was estimated that they might not be able to get rewards. I don’t know that the queen’s gift was not a gift. Pretending to be, there is no distinction between relatives and inferiors, and almost everyone has it. When everyone sees the Queen's kindness, they can't help but respect and love.

This whole day, monarchs and ministers watched hundreds of operas in Furong Pond, listened to silk music, tasted fragrant dishes, and tasted fine wines... It was a lot of fun.

In the evening, before the banquet was over, the queen seemed to feel tired, and told the female relatives that there was no need to sit at the banquet, and it was better to walk around when it was not too late. After saying this, she led the palace people to leave the banquet.

Not long after, female relatives came back to their rooms to change their clothes.

Mrs. Du felt dizzy and hot, so she took Du Tinglan and Teng Yuyi back to Yueminglou.

After I went back to my room, drank tea and changed my clothes, I finally felt much refreshed.

Mrs. Du leaned on the armrest of the low couch under the window, shaking the fan while watching the setting sun outside the window: "I will be going back to the city early in the morning, this Ledao Villa is so magnificent, it is rare to come here, and I did not take a good stroll at night. If nothing happens, it would be good for you brothers and sisters to have a good time walking around."

Du Tinglan said, "If A-Niang has enough rest, she will go downstairs with us later."

"I'm exhausted today, so I won't go." Madam Du said strangely, "This child, what are you looking for in the room when you come back?"

Teng Yuyi spun around the room with her hands behind her back, first her eyes fell on the glazed cup on the table, she shook her head, then turned her head to look at the clothes on the bedstead over there, and shook her head again.

After listening to her aunt's question, she replied, "I owe someone a favor, and I'm thinking of something to give them a gift to make them look good."

Someone outside the door said, "Ayu, Sister Lan, have you rested?"

It turned out that Li Huaigu's mother and daughter came.

Compared with today's high-ranking nobles, Li's family rank is inconspicuous, but because Li Huaigu's appearance and bearing are outstanding among all the little ladies, he is also quite eye-catching at the banquet.

Outside Li Huaigu, he changed into a new light crimson shirt that was soft and misty. He dressed in a clean and elegant dress. He came in and gave Mrs. Du a salute, and then said to Du Tinglan and Teng Yu, "A few stewards came to the building just now. It was passed down that Princess Changyi and Princess Azhi said that they didn't have enough fun last night, so they set up a painting boat in the Shisha Lake and invited the juniors from various prefectures to come and have fun."

Mrs. Du smiled and said, "That's just right. Come on, I'll have a good talk with Mrs. Li."

The three of them left, and Li Huaigu said, "Are you discussing giving gifts in the room?"

Teng Yuyi said nonsense: "There is an old steward in my house who is going to celebrate his birthday. He is my old loyal servant. I want to reward him well."

Li Huaigu said warmly, "I brought a lot of silk and satin from Hangzhou, and they are now piled up in the room. They were originally meant to be gifts. If you like it, Ayu, you can reward your old steward with one."

Du Tinglan didn't know that Xiaoya used Lin Chengyou's bath soup last night, just pretending that Teng Yuyi wanted to use her uncle's name to give a gift to the Prince of Chun'an County, and hurriedly said: "Ayu, this old steward has a weird temperament, Lingluo money and the like may not be seen. Come on, that's why Ayu is worrying about what to reward."

Li Huaigu said with a smile, "So that's the case. I still find it strange. Ayu is a famous family member. She has never seen many treasures, Jinqi, since she was a child. How can anyone in this world despise the gifts she gave."

Teng Yuyi glanced at her quietly, and suddenly pointed at the corner of Li Huaigu's skirt: "Sanniang, be careful of your feet."

Li Huaigu looked down and saw that it was a flying insect. She was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she quickly hid behind Du Tinglan: "Aiya."

Teng Yuyi slowly drove the insect away for her: "I didn't expect you to be so old, and you are still as afraid of insects as you were when you were young."

Li Huaigu held his chest in shock, and laughed at himself: "It's not... I get dizzy when I see these things."

With such a sudden commotion, naturally no one mentioned the gift-giving thing again.

The three of them quickly arrived at Shisha Lake, and they heard laughter from a distance. It turned out that the juniors from various prefectures were imprisoned at the banquet today. As soon as they heard that they were going to go boating for fun, they couldn't wait to get off the boat.

As Teng Yuyi walked and admired the scenery, he saw the painted boats in the lake and the sparse and pink bamboos on the shore, which was quite like a spring scenery in the south of the Yangtze River.

When we got to the shore, there happened to be a painting boat slowly approaching the shore. The painting boat was painted in red and silver, and the hull was quite large. It seemed to be able to accommodate a lot of people, and the laughter and laughter could be heard from far away.

The palace servant smiled and said, "This is the ship of Princess Changyi and Princess Azhi."

Before he finished speaking, a small, white and tender arm appeared out of the window: "Miss Teng, Madam Du, come up quickly."

"Azhi County Lord."

When the boat was docked, two palace servants jumped off the painting boat, put the boat's board on the shore, and carefully helped the three to board the boat.

There was chattering on the boat, all the little princes and little ladies from various provinces.

Azhi had been waiting for Teng Yuyi and Du Tinglan, and when she saw the two of them coming, she happily patted the Yin mattress beside her: "Miss Teng, Madam Du, come and sit."

She had known Teng Yuyi and Du Tinglan well the last time, and she had a deep memory of Teng Yuyi's use of a small sword to force the corpse away.

Li Huaigu's smile did not change, and he reservedly stayed where he was.

Only then did Azhi realize that the three of them came together, and hurriedly said to the palace servant, "For this..."

Li Huaigu lowered his eyes and saluted: "I have seen His Royal Highness the county master, my name is Li Sanniang."

Azhi smiled and nodded: "Okay, Li Sanniang... Find a good position for Li Sanniang."

Peng Huayue and Peng Jinxiu waved, "Sanniang, come and sit here."

When the three of them were seated, someone said, "Second Mother of the Chen family, it's your turn."

Chen Erniang shyly waved her hand: "Oh, I can't tell."

"No, no, everyone here today has to tell a strange story that they have heard recently, or they will be punished with drinking. Chen Erniang, you can't drink anymore. If you don't tell stories, you will be bored."

Chen Erniang twisted the robe hanging in her arms: "Okay, but if I say it badly, you are not allowed to laugh at me. My wet nurse went back to my hometown last month and heard a strange thing on the way back to Chang'an. She said that there was a couple staying in the inn where she passed by not long ago. The wife was four or five months pregnant. She had come to Chang'an to go to their relatives. As a result, they stayed in the same night, and the couple was killed in bed. The wife died. The shape is very strange, and the child in the belly is missing."

"Yeah, this is stealing children, right?"

"No, as the saying goes, 'Tenth of pregnancy', a fetus of such a small month cannot survive if it is stolen."

Chen Erniang said, "I-I haven't finished talking yet. My nurse said, it's not too strange. On the night of the accident, the guest in the next room said that he could clearly hear the cry of the child."

Everyone gasped. This was too weird. A four- or five-month-old fetus could never cry.

Azhi and Changyi were taken aback for a while, and they said with lingering fears: "This story sounds simple, but the more you think about it, the more terrifying it becomes."

Saying that, he looked at the back deck from the window: "Big brother must have heard of this monster stealing fetuses, Chen Erniang, stop for a while and wait until big brother comes in."

There are no less people on the deck than in the cabin, but most of them are princes and grandsons. The flute blowing flute, the tea drinking tea, and the fighting poems should be as free as possible.

"Where is Big Brother?"

"That's not the one who fishes."

Someone on the bow of the boat was holding a fishing rod, and he was catching fish locally. Everyone fixed their eyes on it. That young man, Lang Ruo Zhaoxia, was not Lin Chengyou.

Lin Chengyou sat next to Lu Zhaoan, the two chatted and laughed, and they seemed to be chatting very speculatively, but upon closer inspection, Lu Zhaoan was already wet with a large piece on his back.

Teng Yuyi stared at Lu Zhaoan's back suspiciously. It was only mid-spring, and in such a comfortable environment with wind blowing from all directions, the reason would not sweat, unless... that person was afraid or nervous.

Just at this moment, a gust of wind was sent from the lake, and the wind was wrapped in a wisp of medicinal fragrance. Teng Yuyi smelled it. Isn't this the smell of the jar of Hu medicine she gave Lin Chengyou yesterday? This medicine is different from the Chinese herbal medicines, it is quite spicy and cool, just apply a little on the body, it will last for a long time. It seems that Lin Chengyou is short of the gold invasive medicine, so he has already used it, but he does not know how effective the medicine is.

Someone asked suspiciously: "Hey, why is there a scent of medicine, someone was injured?"

Chang Yi suddenly asked, "Has Big Brother changed the medicine?"

Azhi said, "Brother said that he ran out of Jinchuang medicine, and he couldn't find one that was in hand, so he had to make do with other medicines temporarily."

At this time, the maid reluctantly came in and replied, "The prince refuses to come in. He said that he wants to go fishing, and he is busy. He wants the two Highnesses to play by themselves."
