Capture the Jade:


Duan Wenyin was confused: “This poisonous insect is only possessed by Prince Cheng, Dalang, have you dealt with Prince Cheng these days?”

Du Tinglan met Teng Yuyi’s eyes, and even tried to help his younger brother clear up his relationship with Dong Erniang. Does this mean that Lin Chengyou plotted against Duan Ningyuan? It also depends on whether Lin Chengyou is willing to bear the charge.

Guo saw Princess Azhi’s eyes wide open: “Ma’am, you mean my brother put the worms on General Duan?”

Duan Wenyin was stunned for a moment, then quickly smiled and said: “Princess, please don’t be overwhelmed. I mean, since these bugs are kept in Qingyun Temple, one or two of them will inevitably come out. When Ning Yuan was dealing with the prince, he accidentally It’s unknown if it’s stained.”

Azhi was upset, and turned to look at Juesheng and Qizhi behind him: “I don’t know Taoism either, you can explain it for my brother.”

Juesheng and Qizhi wanted to speak a long time ago, but they were afraid of exposing themselves. Since Princess Jingde personally exposed their identities, there is no need to worry anymore.

Qizhi said truthfully: “Mrs. Yong’anhou’s words are not understood by the poor. Although this insect is a thing of Qingyun Temple, but the brother will never release it without a reason. The reason why I used this method to deal with Dong Erniang that day is because She has caused a lot of people in Ziyun Tower but refuses to tell the truth. If you casually get infected with the bug, I don’t know how many people in and out of the palace have suffered. But so far, no more than five people in Chang’an City have been infected with the bug, and There is a reason for everything.”

Juesheng sullenly said: “That’s right, don’t say that our seniors haven’t seen General Duan at all recently, even if we did, there is no chance that General Duan will be infected with poisonous insects.”

The faces of the guests became even more embarrassed. This is clear enough. I know how Duan Ningyuan got infected, and I don’t want to blame Prince Cheng.

Qizhi said again: “Itchy worms like young men with a healthy body, and when they meet a better host, they will often abandon the old host. Judging by the situation of General Duan, it should be that the itch worms from the original host are attracted to the host. It came from me. There are only two people in Chang’an City who are infected with poisonous insects. Where did Little General Duan get it from? Just go to the big prison in Jingzhao Mansion and have a look.”

Duan Ningyuan is in purgatory, but he has not completely lost his sanity. After hearing this, he calmed down a bit. He and Dong Erniang have not seen each other for several days. way.

As long as the poisonous insects on Dong Erniang’s body are still there, it will be able to maintain each other’s reputation.

He staggered and struggled, gritted his teeth and said a word: “I…I have never met that Dong Erniang. Even if I have poisonous insects in my body, I will definitely not get it from this person.”

After Duan Wenyin heard this, she quickly winked at the several stewards: “While all the elders are here, you should send someone to Jingzhao Mansion to have a look, and come back to report after confirming, so as to save Ning Yuan from injustice.”

The servants were about to take orders to leave, but they heard A Zhi say: “Wait a minute, remember to bring all the servants from each government with you as evidence.”

Duan Wenyin and Mrs. Duan’s faces were hot. They had long suspected that Ningyuan’s poisonous insects were infected by Dong Erniang.

Unexpectedly, in order to prevent her brother from taking the blame for nothing, Princess Azhi asked all the prefectures to send people there, so how to cover up in time, they subconsciously wanted to obstruct it, but it would be too guilty to do so.

After thinking about it again, Ning Yuan just said it so frankly, and offered to go to Jingzhao Mansion to check, thinking that he knew more about his whereabouts in the past few days than they did, maybe the poisonous insect was not infected from Dong Erniang’s body.

Therefore, he no longer obstructed him, and hurriedly agreed.

“You go with the steward of Duan’s family. Take a closer look at Jingzhao Mansion, and come back earlier to report.” A Zhi held her chin while speaking, but her expression was very serious.

While everyone was talking, Duan’s mother and son became more violent, both of them looked like crazy, they kept scratching themselves, if they didn’t detoxify, sooner or later they would scratch themselves until there was no good meat left.

Mrs. Duan and Duan Wenyin saw it in their eyes, and their hearts were in a ball. Duan Wenyin felt sorry for A Niang and her younger brother, and said in a hurry: “Little Daoist, I just said something inappropriately. I hope Daoist don’t take it to heart, let’s not worry about it.” How did Dalang get infected with poisonous insects, since it is a thing of Qingyun Temple, can you please ask the Taoist priest to help detoxify as soon as possible.”

Juesheng and Qizhi shook their heads: “The medicine powder has been locked up by the senior brother, and only the senior brother can take it. Even if we rush back to the temple immediately, there is no way to save it. For the current plan, we can only find the senior brother.” Detoxify yourself.”

Old Madam Duan’s eyes lit up: “Can the two priests tell me where the prince is now? You guys prepare the cart quickly, and let the master go to invite the prince himself.”

***

The matter in the flower hall soon spread to the front. In order to save face, the Duan family once wanted to move Duan Ningyuan and Mrs. Duan to the inner courtyard.

Unfortunately, Duan Ningyuan and Mrs. Duan were tortured. Every time they took a step, even the flesh of the belt was shaking. Let alone going to the inner courtyard, even going out of the flower hall was a delusion.

The servants had no choice but to find a rope, intending to tie the two of them up, but they dared not go forward because they were afraid of the poisonous insect.

The Duan family had no choice but to close the flower hall and invite all the guests to the middle hall instead.

Fortunately, the Duan family managed the family well, and the middle hall was opened up in a blink of an eye.

The guests were afraid of being rude, but also wanted to know how the Duan family would end up. Except for a few who left, most of them stayed to drink and have fun.

The male guests sit in the east hall, and the female relatives sit in the west hall, separated by a few large six-curved mother-of-pearl flower-and-bird screens, so that they can feast together without losing courtesy.

Teng Yuyi and Du Tinglan sat under Mrs. Duan, both of them had a good appetite.

Du Tinglan is not good at drinking, so she concentrates on eating, but Teng Yuyi drank a lot of wine slowly, the calamus wine made by Duan’s family is good, after drinking it, it feels fragrant and fragrant, all the guests waited with their ears upright while eating The servants sent by Lord Dejun came back.

Every time there are servants coming in and out of the court, the eyes of everyone change, and suddenly someone says: “Here we come, we come.”

The servants ran up to Mrs. Duan and said, “The master has invited the son of the king, and the son has just dismounted.”

There was a voice in front of the middle hall, and Lord Zhen Guo soon led King Lin Chengyou in.

Zhen Guogong is a well-known Confucian general, over forty years old, majestic and high-spirited, the man beside him is wearing a green round neck shirt with a white jade belt around his waist, showing a bit of laziness It’s not who Lin Chengyou is.

Duke Zhen’s voice was like a bell: “I really don’t want to bother His Highness and His Royal Highness, but I heard that only His Royal Highness can cure poisonous insects, so I have no choice but to abandon my old face and look for my Royal Highness.”

Lin Chengyou said: “Why did the Duke make such a statement? The old lady in the house is celebrating her birthday. Even if there is no matter about Little General Duan, the younger generation should come over to say congratulations.”

Princess Jingde greeted her happily: “Brother.”

Juesheng and Qizhi hurriedly followed.

Lin Chengyou looked at Azhi: “Is it fun?”

“It was great fun.”

Lin Chengyou snorted. He had been busy looking for traces of Yao Yi all day long. Not feeling reckless, he sighed on purpose: “It seems that you are old enough to come out to have fun by yourself. From now on, I don’t need my brother to take you to play, just find someone to play with.”

Knowing that her brother blamed her for leaving the palace without permission, Princess Jingde muttered: “I want my brother, how can others compare with my brother.”

Duke Zhen laughed and said, “The Princess is more and more like the prince.”

Lin Chengyou patted Azhi’s head, looked up at Zhongtang: “Is the old lady in the house at the banquet, this junior wants to go over and say a happy birthday to the old birthday star.”

Duke Zhen is very honored: “The son will help the dog to detoxify later, if you are not busy, please enjoy a glass of wine before leaving.”

When Madam Duan saw Lin Chengyou approaching, she didn’t dare to be slow, she hurriedly got up tremblingly: “Quickly give your seat to your son.”

Lin Chengyou saluted with a smile: “The junior asks the old birthday star for a drink.”

As soon as he appeared, several noble ladies at the banquet blushed, and they didn’t know whether they were drunk or shy.

The female family members of the Duan family felt that they had a bright face, so they hurriedly asked the servants to pour wine for Lin Chengyou, asking for their health, and being very considerate.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lin Chengyou pretended to glance casually at the women’s mat behind Mrs. Duan, and finally set his eyes on Teng Yuyi, and sneered inwardly.

Teng Yuyi had just finished drinking a cup of wine, and when she raised her eyes, she met Lin Chengyou’s gaze. The word “doubt” was written all over her face, and she slowly put down the wine cup.

Juesheng and Qizhi were stunned for a while, the way the senior brother looked at Mrs. Teng… something seemed wrong.

Thinking about it, suddenly my mind exploded, Mrs. Teng cheated a pack of tickle worms and medicine powder from them last time, the brother probably suspected that Mrs. Teng did it.

The two looked at Teng Yuyi suspiciously. If Mrs. Teng was really playing tricks on Little General Duan, how could she be so calm? Moreover, Mrs. Teng looked so panicked in the flower hall earlier, she was clearly terrified.

According to them, the reason why General Duan was poisoned was obviously because he went to see Erniang Dong in prison.

Duke Zhenguo led Lin Chengyou out of the house: “You are in the flower hall in the garden, please come with me.”

When Lin Chengyou arrived outside the hall, he stopped suddenly on the steps, then formed a ring with his fingers and whistled.

Suddenly a dark shadow appeared on the eaves, leaping down from the beam.

The thing moved swiftly, and jumped to the light in front of the steps, revealing its shiny black fur.

Everyone exclaimed, it turned out to be a nimble little cheetah.

After the female relatives were surprised, they whispered shyly, the son of Cheng Wang is really playful, this thing is just right for hunting, how could he bring it into the inner house to play.

The little cheetah circled around Lin Chengyou’s robe and let out a few growls, shaking the flowers and plants in the courtyard to rustle, then bent down and put its paws on Lin Chengyou’s robe .

Teng Yuyi was so impressed that he forgot the wine cup in his hand, he wondered how Lin Chengyou trained to make such a beast bow down to him.

Lin Chengyou smiled and said to Zhen Guogong: “I didn’t bring any medicine powder with me today, it’s too troublesome to rush back to the temple, so I can only let it help detoxify.”

Duke Zhen nodded: “I remember that this was a spirit beast that the Sinhala Kingdom paid tribute to. The sage saw that the prince liked it and sent it to Chengwang’s mansion. Detoxification.”

Princess Jingde took a candied lychee from her waist and threw it to the little black panther: “Your reward, eat it.”

The little black panther stretched its paw forward, and pushed away the preserved lychee in disgust.

Princess Jingde stomped her feet angrily: “Junu, why are you being so petty to me again. Hmph!”

Lin Chengyou squatted down and grabbed Jun Nu’s sharp ears: “Azhi likes you, so you can eat one for your face.”

The little cheetah narrowed its green eyes slightly, and rubbed Lin Chengyou’s palm with infinite attachment, and when it turned its head, it still refused to look at the preserved lychee.

Lin Chengyou said: “Hey, Ah Zhi is my younger sister, I feel ashamed if you do this.”

Jun Nu groaned, sniffed the preserved lychee, and swallowed it slowly.

The Duke of Zhen Guo saw that Jun Nu was ready, so he took advantage of the opportunity to lead Lin Chengyou to the backyard: “Just now someone said that Ning Yuan was infected by a certain little lady. This is really absurd. The dog and that little lady have never had anything to do with each other.” How could it be infected for no reason? What’s more, although the dog is shapeless, it is not the kind of person who does not know the severity. According to the old man, it can only be infected from other places.”

Lin Chengyou paused: “What does the Duke mean?”

Mr. Zhen Guo sighed: “I’m afraid that some villains will deliberately do sneaky things in order to plant dogs. I dare to ask, has Qingyun Temple lost any poisonous insects recently?”

Teng Yu put down the wine cup unhurriedly, she had already thought about everything in advance, even if Lin Chengyou deliberately dragged her into it, she still had a way to deal with it.

The hearts of Juesheng and Qizhi jumped into their throats all of a sudden. If the senior brother told about Mrs. Teng’s messing with bugs, Mrs. Teng would not be able to explain clearly.

Fortunately, Princess Azhi has sent someone to Jingzhao Mansion. As long as it is confirmed that the poisonous bug on Dong Erniang’s body is gone, it means that the poisonous bug on General Duan was infected from Dong Erniang’s body.

Hey, those people haven’t come back yet, it’s really worrying.

The two of them looked at Lin Chengyou without blinking, and were so nervous that they didn’t dare to breathe.

Lin Chengyou glanced at the women’s seats from the corner of his eyes, and suddenly smiled: “The Lord of the Kingdom underestimated our Qingyun Temple. Even if someone wants to steal insects, he must be able to enter the gate of my Qingyun Temple, right? Recently, there is a lot of people in our temple. Not a single worm was lost.”

Duke Zhen’s face froze.

Lin Chengyou walked forward first: “First detoxify Mrs. Zun and General Duan.”

A group of people were just going to the flower hall when the servants who were sent to Jingzhao Mansion came back.

The leading palace man went straight to Princess Jingde: “Princess.”

“Have you seen it?” Princess Jingde asked curiously, “Is the poisonous bug on Dong Erniang still there?”

Everyone pricked up their ears one after another, Mrs. Duan and Duan Wenyin held their breaths and concentrated, Duke Zhen stopped and looked at the servant solemnly.

The servant shook his head: “It’s gone, Dong Erniang drank a big bowl of porridge in the evening, and her energy has improved a lot, and she didn’t itch anymore.”

Azhi then asked the servants of the various houses who went together: “You also went to see, is it really so?”

“If you go back to the princess, I’ve confirmed that the poisonous bug on Dong Erniang’s body is indeed gone.”

Princess Jingde nodded in satisfaction, and Lin Chengyou glanced at Teng Yuyi meaningfully.

The people at the table were flirting with each other. They had heard about General Duan and Erniang Dong for a long time, but they couldn’t produce conclusive evidence. What else can the Duan family say this time? This insect is very powerful, but only people who have been in close contact with it will be infected. Here, General Duan just had an attack, and Dong Erniang recovered. Where did General Duan’s poisonous insect come from?

In the middle hall, a needle could be heard immediately, and the expressions on the faces of Mrs. Duan and Duan Wenyin seemed to be cracked, and gradually became extremely difficult to see.

Zhen Guogong was stunned for a while, and said angrily: “This scoundrel!”
