Chapter 22
But in Xianhui's eyes, it was like a poisonous snake wearing a smiling face mask. In that smile, the venom was flowing down, and if it splashed a little, it would be poisoned and fall to the ground!Forcibly enduring the disgust in his heart, he pretended to be pleasantly surprised and said, "I found it? Thank you so much, Tong Yun."

"Thank you for what? My sister." Shao Tongyun smiled easily, but his heartstrings were still tense. He really wasted too much time just now.After all, it took a while for the tea to take effect, so the most important thing right now was to persuade her to drink tea.

However, this persuasion has knowledge.

You definitely can't persuade people directly in a hurry, that will only make the other party suspicious, and you have to figure it out slowly-if it doesn't work, you can't startle the snake, and wait for the next opportunity.

Pretending to drink tea, he looked at the past from the corner of his eye.

"Hey, that's great." Xianhui was wiping the earrings with a handkerchief, putting them on her ears with a happy face, "If I lose them, I'll be depressed today."

Her fingers were slender and slender, as white as jade, like a handful of ten water onions.

Especially when she tilted her head slightly and wore earrings, her blue hair was like clouds, her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, and her expression was even more touching.Thinking back to what my mother said, my father actually wanted to pay for her money. Even if I didn't make an imperial concubine, at least the nobles and beauties would definitely not be able to escape.

At that time, wouldn't he and his mother be plotted against by her?
——Be the first to strike first!

A flash of determination flashed in Shao Tongyun's heart, and he smiled and said, "I see that you are nervous, but it's just a pendant."

"I can't bear it." Xianhui muttered, turned sideways, and went to serve tea.

Seeing this, Shao Tongyun was overjoyed.

Unexpectedly, after Xianhui picked up the teacup, she didn't drink it, and she turned her hair in a daze.

"Second sister..." Shao Tongyun couldn't help becoming anxious again, "What are you thinking?"

"What's going on?" Xianhui turned to look at her with a puzzled look on her face, "We even found the pearl earrings, but after so long, the person who moved the boxes and cages still hasn't come." Putting down the tea, she said Pulling the wet skirt, "It's cool, it's so uncomfortable to wear."

Shao Tongyun was very annoyed, but in order to coax her to drink tea, he had to hold her like a rich lady, not to be provoked or quarreled, and he had to follow her with a smiling face.Slowly took a few breaths of relief in my heart, and smiled softly: "Second sister, don't worry, I will go to remind you." Called the girl to come in and scolded, "Why is the person who moved the box still not coming?"

The girl hurriedly apologized, "I'll go over and urge you to see what they are dawdling about?"

"Second Sister, don't worry." Shao Tongyun kicked the brazier over with a concerned expression, "Use the brazier to bake the skirt first, so as not to catch cold." Then he picked up the tea and took a big sip, "Just now I was The busy work outside and the scorching heat inside the house made my mouth dry and thirsty to death."

Xianhui smiled and nodded, "Really? It's really hard work for you."

Why don't you drink tea?Shao Tongyun was so angry that his orifices were about to smoke, he endured and endured, and took another sip of tea, "Well..." She narrowed her beautiful eyes, her expression was indescribably satisfied, "Good tea. It is fragrant and not at all fluffy. , sweet and mellow in the mouth, much better than our Biluochun." Zhuang Ruo casually smiled and said, "Second Sister, you should try it too."

Xianhui shook her head, "I'm not thirsty."

"This tea tastes good." Shao Tongyun persuaded her with a smile, with a natural expression, "If you think it tastes good, you can bring some to Mrs. Shen later."

Xian Hui hesitated for a while, "Then I'll try it." She lowered her head and took a sip, then frowned and said, "It's good, but the taste is a bit weak, I guess my mother doesn't like it."

Is it true that the thicker the tea, the better?Shao Tongyun cursed in his heart, "Stupid donkey!", with a gentle and generous smile on his face, "Mrs. Shen doesn't like to drink, maybe big sister likes to drink? You taste it carefully. If you really like it, I will drink it later. How much does it cost to find the Princess of the Great County?"

Xianhui shook her head, "I don't know much about tea, did you notice anything special about it?"

Shao Tongyun had no choice but to take another sip, pretending to savor it carefully, "Well... the taste is slightly sweet, fresh and refreshing, and it also has the unique flower and fruit aroma of Dongting Biluochun, which deserves the praise of top grade."

Of course Xianhui knew that it must be a good tea, Biluochun, the top one——it's a pity that it was poisoned!

"Try it, it's really extraordinary." Shao Tongyun smiled.

Xian Hui hesitated, "Okay, I'll try it again." After taking a sip, she nodded, "It has a floral and fruity aroma."

Shao Tongyun smiled and said, "I'll just say it."

"Ah..." Xianhui yawned and rubbed his forehead, "I haven't slept well since the age of [-]. I've been sleepy for the past few days, and the brazier in the room is too warm, and I'm so fuzzy " She stood up, shaking slightly, "Oh, I feel even more dizzy when I wake up suddenly."

So fast?Shao Tongyun was a little surprised, but thinking about it, maybe it was because my cousin administered the medicine too aggressively, so it worked quickly, right?But not to mention, the warmth of the brazier is indeed a bit smoky, and I also feel a little sleepy, - I don't have time to think about it for the time being, so let's finish the matter first.

——It’s okay, anyway, the sooner it works, the better.

Immediately stepped forward to help, and said with a smile: "I'm a little sleepy too, why don't we go to the next door for a while."

Xian Hui widened her bright eyes, "Isn't that bad? How could anyone come to sleep in someone else's house?" She yawned, shook her head and said, "It's okay, I can still hold on."

"It's said that Princess Dajun is my cousin, so it's okay." Shao Tongyun stepped forward to pull her, smiling, "Let's go, let's just turn around for a while, wait for the cage to be moved, and we should go out after changing our skirts."

Xianhui rubbed her brows, "That's fine." She walked over with her, and said, "I'll be fine for a while."

Shao Tongyun smiled deeply, "Yes, it will be fine in a short while."

Just wait for a short while, the king of the big county will go back to the house to change clothes,... a good thing will be done!

At that time, Xianhui's reputation will be ruined, and there will be no other way out except to be a concubine for the king of the big county.The eldest cousin is such a powerful and shrewd person, and Xianhui has become a concubine. It is polite to her to flatten and round her. As long as she uses a little force, it won't be easy to squeeze out the water, right?And her reputation is ruined, not only is she finished, but also the people in the east courtyard will be unable to lift their heads for the rest of their lives.

Hmph, in the future, what face do they have to make a fuss about the West Courtyard? !This is a plan that kills many birds with one stone.

As for Xianhui's desire to enter the palace and become an imperial concubine, turning around to deal with the West Courtyard is nothing but a dream!
"Come on." Shao Tongyun greeted Xianhui to get on the bed, fearing that she would be shy and refused to lie down, so he took off his shoes and went up first, "Let's each cover a quilt, tilt it for a while, and wait to go out in good spirits."

"Okay." Xianhui knew in her heart that she just wanted to get away with a quilt alone.

"Don't tell me, I feel a little sleepy too..." Shao Tongyun yawned and rubbed his eyes, "What, what's going on..." She seemed a little puzzled, but before she finished speaking, her eyelids It was closed heavily.

Xianhui had experienced the medicine in her previous life, and she knew how powerful it was. Moreover, Shao Tongyun was tricked by herself into drinking more, and the effect of the medicine would only be stronger, so she didn't worry that she would wake up again.Immediately turn over and get out of bed, if you don't leave, you will be in trouble if you are bumped into by the big county king who is rushing over.

Quietly through the gauze screen, there is a secret door, which is convenient for the female relatives to go to the back yard at ordinary times.

Because it was inconvenient for too many people to know about the trap laid by Princess Dajun, and there was no servant in the backyard, so she tiptoed out of the yard, intending to take a detour and go back to the front.Unexpectedly, Prince Qing's Mansion is really too big, he went around and around, and finally lost his way.

God!So there is a rockery here?There is also a rockery over there?The pavilion in front of me seemed to pass by diagonally just now, why did I see it again?It seems... as we walked further and further away, we couldn't hear the noise from the flower hall at all.

what to do?Xianhui was so anxious that she was sweating thinly from her temples in the cold weather.

No, no!This is definitely going further and further away.

As soon as she gritted her teeth, she had no choice but to turn around and walk towards the main road, hoping to meet girls or women so that they could ask for directions, and it would be serious to go back to the front.Who knew that after walking along the main road for a stick of incense, there was still no one to be seen. He was anxious when he suddenly heard voices coming from the partition wall.

Could it be that there is an open space outside the flower hall?Hurry over and have a look.

Following the voice, Xian Hui hurriedly put up her skirt and went around, passed through the Plum Blossom Gate, and suddenly a bright light appeared in front of her eyes. It wasn't that the scenery was too beautiful, but that she was stunned by people's fright.

In front of them was a small garden with a small pavilion in the middle of a lake surrounded by water. Several young men were sitting in the pavilion around a brazier. There were melons, fruits, snacks and fine wines on the table. They were obviously meeting and talking here.

As soon as she came, everyone looked at her in unison.

Xianhui was extremely embarrassed, and more importantly, she suddenly saw Lu Jian's panic. Why are he and his brother-in-law here?Also came to pay a visit to Prince Qing's Mansion?That's why he was with Gao Chen, the king of the four counties?I want to retreat, but I don't know where to retreat.

In the gazebo, Gao Chen had already stood up.

He was originally taller than the average person, but also handsome and handsome, dressed luxuriously, he didn't need to speak at all, just a slight gloomy complexion gave off a compelling aura.

Xianhui said in a panic: "I, I... I'm lost."

Hearing her voice, Gao Chen softened his expression, "So it's the younger sister of the Shao family."

Xianhui was startled when he heard this.

Don't call her Miss, call her sister, it is obvious to use the acquaintance relationship as a cover.

"You are waiting for me over there." Gao Chen said, and then turned around to explain to everyone, with a kind of humility in a high position, "That is the girl from my sister-in-law's family, she seems to be naughty, she walked off the road from the front , I will send her back to the inner courtyard first, so as not to worry the family."

Song Wenting, Lu Jian, and five or six people present all stood up, and said politely, "Please be busy, the four princes, we just wait here."

"Wait a moment, everyone." Gao Chen bowed slightly, and then walked over without haste.

He was wearing a silver-gray four-claw woven golden thread python robe and a sable waistcoat. He looked even taller and taller than usual, with an indescribably heroic appearance.The cold sunshine in early spring shone on his body, like a golden gauze, making his eyes bright and bright, and his whole body revealed the cold brilliance of the mountains and snowy peaks.

Xianhui lowered her head and dared not look directly.

Gao Chen stopped in front of her and said lightly: "Let's go."
