The Possession of My Beloved

     Zhao Quan is not very clear about the inside story of Cui Xingzhou and Miantang breaking up.

    The chaos in the northwest has been resolved. Recently, the imperial court has contacted the princess of Lao Chanyu, which seems to have the meaning of pacifying the northwest. Cui Xingzhou dispatched the army to Youzhou, but encountered some accidents and could not return for a while.

    When he went to Youzhou to see Cui Xingzhou this time, Cui Xingzhou didn't even want to mention Liu Miantang.

    I just explained some things to him in a hurry, and then gave him the medicinal materials of the eagle bone flower, ask him to make an ointment, and asked Zhao Quan not to tell Miantang that it was delivered by himself, otherwise she would won't work. However, the efficacy of the medicine could not be delayed, so Zhao Quan was asked to rely on his identity as Langzhong and explain to her how powerful it was.

    After explaining, Cui Xingzhou coaxed him away.

    However, in Zhao Quan's view, Cui Xingzhou was probably the one who gave up in chaos. Seeing that Lady Liu was useless, he was unwilling to take responsibility. This ointment should also be a kind of conscience compensation.

    In fact, without Cui Xingzhou's instructions, he would not tell Liu Miantang the truth, and he just took the ointment as a gift for Miss Liu.

    As for the fact that Liu Miantang doesn't want Cui Xingzhou, it requires an extremely bold imagination. Zhao Houye was a little lacking, and he didn't think about it for a while, and only single-mindedly tried to get Liu Miantang to treat him differently.

    Mian Tang felt that if Zhao Quan were not Lord Marquis, he would have been beaten to death a few times by his eloquence.

     Before he finished speaking, Miantang took out another 300 taels of silver and slapped it on the counter: "If you don't say how much the medicine is worth, I'll give it randomly, if Hou Ye doesn't accept it , take the medicine back."

    Zhao Quan had no choice but to hurriedly hand over the banknotes and instructed him on some medication matters. Only then did he leave the dart board.

     The tendons finally felt normal.

    Miantang is very convinced of Zhao Quan's medical skills. If he is right, then his hands and feet will not be long before he can see better, and his hands and feet will no longer be weak.

    Miantang doesn't want much, and doesn't want to be able to return to the original, as long as she can cope with daily life, and no longer like a waste person, it is enough. So for the next few days, I used plaster regularly and quantitatively.

    Miantang implicitly told her grandfather what she knew about the mother and son of the Su family.

    My grandfather groaned angrily: "You said, I reminded my second son a long time ago. But this noble person was introduced by your second aunt's own father. Your aunt said that, her father You're a magistrate, and your knowledge isn't better than you and me? Qingying has a father and a mother, so it's not my turn to worry about a poor old man, but you...how did you meet that Zhao Houye?"

    Lu Wu knew that his granddaughter had the right idea, and if he managed too much, it would be counterproductive. But he still reminded her earnestly: "Child, you are not a person with shallow eyelids, even if he is a real lord, it is not easy to enter the hou family, you must remember your mother's words, and don't be greedy for wealth. , I thought about it for a while..."

    Mian Tang smiled: "Please rest assured grandfather, I and Zhao Houye are really innocent. I don't dare to climb high like him."

    Seeing that Miantang really didn't care, Lu Wu felt relieved.

    However, in the past few days, Mr. Zhao always came to the house in a different way, especially every time a matchmaker came to ask about Miantang's situation, he always interrupted, which was really annoying.

    Tomorrow he will instruct the concierge to thank you behind closed doors. If the second room wants to cling to the powerful, they also go out of the house to cling to it. But don't fragrant and stink into the house.

    However, Zhao Quan didn't know that he was annoying. Since Lu Mansion couldn't get in, he simply came directly to the guard shop, and it was good to have a chat with Mian Tang across the counter.

    It's just that Miantang spent a lot less time in the security bureau later, and she even told Hou Ye that she couldn't find anyone.

    Zhao Quan was very annoyed for a while. He still has a job and can't stay in Xizhou for a long time. If Miantang always hides from himself, how could he decide with her to take her into the Hou's Mansion?

    So on this day he deliberately waited at the back door of the Lu family, and just waited for Miantang to come out, and spit out his admiration for her.

    Miantang has never walked through the main entrance these days in order to avoid Lord Hou. Unexpectedly, Zhao Quan was willing to wait for her at the back door filled with swill buckets, which was slightly salted.

    Miantang thinks that he should invite Hou Ye for a cup of tea, and by the way, make it clear to him.

    Therefore, Miantang asked Hou Ye to go to the teahouse at the east gate first, and she arrived later.

    When the two of them sat in the private room of the tea house, Miantang poured a cup of tea for Zhao Quan, and said politely that she only had gratitude for Lord Hou and had no other affection. Zhao Houye doesn't have to be obsessive, it's good to get rid of the obsession.

    Zhao Quan's self-esteem was hurt, and he was a little annoyed.

      However, girl, you are born delicate and you should have been cared for like a peony and a lotus. But now you live in your grandfather's house, and the matchmakers who come here all day are all vulgar people, who can What good marriage can I tell you?"

    Mian Tang smiled: "The people they said are the ones who are right for my status. Lord Hou is tall and expensive, so I don't like these things. Since you want to find another good fate, You should find someone with an equal status... According to the talent and appearance of the Marquis, it is also worthy to find a princess..."

    Zhao Quan waved his hand and said: "Miss Liu, don't curse me, if a princess really looks at me, it's going to be fatal, I don't want to be trapped like Cui Jiu. State, end up lame..."

     Halfway through her words, Zhao Quan hurriedly stopped her.

    He really accidentally missed his mouth this time, although he closed it immediately, but Miantang looked at him intently and hesitated: "What did you say? He...is trapped in Youzhou? lame"

    Zhao Quan nodded helplessly. Since he accidentally said something, he can only say honestly: "I didn't want to mention him in front of Miss, for fear of losing Miss's interest..."

    Miantang said calmly: "It's okay, to be more specific, maybe I can eat a few more bowls of rice today..."

    Zhao Quan felt that although Miantang was a little mean, it was reasonable. After all, when Miantang was abandoned by Cui Jiushi, it was inevitable that there was grief in her heart.

    So he told the truth about Cui Xingzhou's current situation.

    It turned out that after the court received the letter from Lao Shanyu and the princess requesting to clear up the disorder, it also intends to unite the various tribes of the barbarians to overthrow the royal court of Agufan, and to quell the border war as soon as possible.

    And Cui Xingzhou actually advocated a truce, which is really unexpected.

    Some people in the DPRK have been criticizing King Huaiyang for deliberately expanding the front line in order to strengthen his own wings. However, this time to negotiate with the princess, it was Prince Huaiyang who personally wrote the letter, which showed that he was loyal to the court, and made those who scold him for being a military man to be speechless for a while.

    The Empress Dowager Wu finally decided to marry the princess to Cui Xingzhou and win him over for her own use.

    However, the princess of the Empress Dowager Wu was pampered very much, but it was not her marriage, and it was not something that could be manipulated by a random imperial decree.

    Therefore, the imperial court issued an edict, and the tribes who wanted to be recruited from the Ministry of War to take over the Northwest Army and unite with the princess as soon as possible agreed to peace. After Zhao Cui Xingzhou entered the capital and let the princess see each other in person, the imperial decree was issued.

    Who would have thought that the envoys sent by the imperial court encountered a surprise attack in Youzhou, and the King of Huaiyang personally led the troops to relieve the trouble.

    Miantang listened silently, but grabbed her skirt tightly. She couldn't imagine that the proud man had become... lame!

    "Aren't you a genius doctor? Didn't you give me an elixir that can heal my bones? Why don't you give it to him, but come to me to waste time!" After listening to Zhao Quan's words, Miantang was silent After a while, he suddenly asked.

    Zhao Quan was yelled at by Miantang, but he felt innocent and had to finally tell the truth: "This eagle bone flower that continues to connect the bones... is something that transforms into a snowy mountain, and it will only take a hundred years. It blooms once in a while, and the blooming period is very short, so you can't buy it with money. This medicine... ah, I'll tell you! Actually... Cui Jiu gave it to me and asked me to help me prepare it, and so did he. I asked for it by chance. That’s all I have, so I gave it to you. I also persuaded him to keep some, but he wouldn’t, so I’ll bring it to you quickly, so as not to lose the efficacy of the medicine…”

    Mian Tang pursed her lips tightly, she did not expect that the ointment that took effect immediately was actually brought by Cui Xingzhou asking Zhao Quan to bring it. He didn't expect that he would bring all the medicine to her even though he knew that his leg was lame.

    "He is really disabled? Are you here to lie to me again?" Mian Tang said coldly.

    No reason, Zhao Quan shivered uncontrollably under her stare, and then swore to God that there was no deception this time. Cui Jiu's leg injury, which he and the special envoy saw with his own eyes, was very serious.

    Cui Jiu continued to have a high fever for a few days. After Zhao Quan performed acupuncture, she gradually recovered her clarity.

    Mian Tang lowered her eyelids and said she was a little tired, so she asked the maid to settle the bill and left.

    Zhao Quan never expected that Miantang would have such a nonchalant attitude. Although it was hateful for Cui Jiu to lie to her, his current situation is also very pitiful.

    Because of a leg injury, I can't go to Beijing to ease the relationship with the Queen Mother, and I am permanently disabled. He gave up all the good medicine that could heal his wounds and gave it to Miantang, even if the hatred was huge, it should be eased.

    However, Liu Miantang's attitude was so cold and merciless,

    This made him shatter some of the charming expectations for women in the world.

    For a while, Zhao Quan was eager to try again. He always felt that Cui Jiu was defeated and he had great hope!

    But before they got to the Lu Mansion, they saw that the door of the Lu family was in a mess, and the uncle of the Lu family seemed to be in a hurry to get on the horse and rush to the quay of the river.

    When he saw Lu Muli standing at the door, he asked tentatively, but Lu Mu said unnaturally: "Miantang is ill and can't see guests."

    As soon as Zhao Quan heard this, he went to visit Miantang. He was already the bro, who could be better than him?

    Seeing that he insisted on going, Lu Mu was helpless. Originally, this Hou Ye intended to take Miantang as his concubine, and he felt secretly happy in his heart. I feel that if Miantang can reach such a high level, it is also a blessing.

    But he forgot that his niece was really a troublemaker.

    It's worse than waiting for Lord Hou to know from other people's mouths. It's better for him to use his words to reveal the truth, lest this marriage collapse in the future. So he rubbed his hands and said, "Hey, Lord Hou, my niece is really used to being wild. It is said that there was a problem with the escort's **** boat to Yizhou. She didn't say hello to anyone yesterday. She packed her luggage and brought her The two maids left the house overnight and went to Yizhou! You see, she is so capable, but fortunately she brought the maid, she should be able to turn around soon..."

    Zhao Quan was taken aback, if he remembered correctly... Yizhou is only a few miles away from Youzhou...

    Miantang did set off overnight, but her final destination was not Yizhou, but Youzhou.

    She has already used some of the Eagle Claw ointment, and the remaining medicine must be used up as soon as possible because the wax seal is opened, otherwise the efficacy of the medicine will be greatly reduced.

    After listening to Zhao Quan's words yesterday, she returned to the mansion without food and tea, holding a book, but the pages of the book were not turned, and she sat dry all afternoon.

    Miantang has never been so upset. He simply threw the book into the charcoal stove beside him.

    She comforted herself for a while, Youzhou is far away from her, the people there are dead or alive, and what does it have to do with her, an ordinary commoner?

    But I finally forced myself to go to bed and closed my eyes, and my hands and feet felt sore and numb from the application, making it difficult to sleep.

    Bicao didn't know that she was upset, so she came to give her medicine as usual.

    But Miantang looked at the medicine jar that was nearly half used, and suddenly said: "Don't use the medicine...Go, just pack my luggage for me..."

    As a woman, even if her hands and feet are weak, it doesn't matter. But as a military general, how could he get on a horse with a lame leg?

    Miantang didn't want to be unreasonable anymore, inexplicably received Cui Xingzhou's favor.

    What I owe him, I will pay it back in double, so I can have nothing to worry about...

    Miantang has always decided what to do and will no longer hesitate.

    It's just that Fan Hu's gang got in the way, not only following her, but also asking her where she was going.

    In the middle of the trip, Miantang stood at the bow of the boat, frowning slightly, and bluntly said to Fan Hu that something went wrong in the business, and that there were not enough manpower, please Fan Hu bring a guard to the boat to help.

    Fan Hu was ordered by the lord to come to Miantang to do errands, and he couldn't refuse, so he took a dozen of his men to the boat and helped carry the goods at the dock.

    This time, a large number of mountain goods were shipped, and the owner also gave the **** a bag of good dry goods.

    Miantang let people choose the best Hericium erinaceus, Astragalus, hen, Codonopsis, red dates, and personally stewed a pot of ginseng Hericium chicken soup, waiting for Fan Hu and others to finish Afterwards, greet them with a bowl of soup at the bow.

    In the cold winter, eating a hot bowl of fragrant mushroom chicken soup makes me feel warm and comfortable all over. This soup is really delicious, everyone drank a few bowls in a row, and soon one pot of soup was all over the stomach, feeling that the whole person was floating, so comfortable that one almost wanted to forget everything, and even the body seemed to not exist. , floating in the sea of ​​stars.

    One by one, they stumbled and fell asleep on the table. Fan Hu was the last one to fall asleep, and it was only in the dimness that he thought that he seemed to be talking about Mrs. Miantang again.

    The soup must contain Liu Miantang's exclusive and secret Mongolian sweat medicine.

    In the haze, I heard Lady Liu promise that if they lost their jobs, they could come to her **** bureau. Although they were not as dignitaries as the palace clerks, they would definitely give them a lot of money!

    When Fan Hu woke up again, they were thrown on the dock, Liu Niangzi and the fleet had disappeared...

    Liu Miantang also left the cargo ship after laying down the tail that was in the way, and traveled day and night, all the way to Youzhou, in less than half a month.

    Fortunately, it was in the middle of winter, and the ointment was kept in ice cubes, so it was not afraid of deterioration.

    But after arriving in Youzhou, how to meet Cui Xingzhou is another question.

    However, she did not expect that she would see the King of Huaiyang who was sending off the special envoy to the DPRK and China sooner than expected.

    In the bustling street market, Miantang heard the cheers and shouts of the people, so she rushed past the crowd.

      Some, their eyes were as sharp as a sharp sword, and the corners of their brows and mouths became tense and serious.

    When he reached the gate of the city, King Huaiyang got off the carriage to see off the special envoy. He was leaning on an ivory cane and slowly got off the carriage, but his tall body was not No longer striding forward gracefully as before, but limping.

    Even though Miantang had already performed countless times in his mind, he was lame on crutches, but when he saw it with his own eyes, he still felt sore in his eyes and couldn't help shedding tears.

    She hurriedly wrapped her face with a headscarf, and hid the choked sob that was about to come out in time.

    Forget what I said, and when I see it, I realize that it was all hidden in my heart. Now that I saw him, my mind came to my mind again.

    She originally wanted to deliver the medicine to the prince's guards in person. But at this time, she always wanted to see him in person... But she didn't want to talk to him, it would be most suitable if she could meet like a dream.

    Due to a leg injury, the King of Huaiyang had to recuperate in the famous Yaoquan Villa in Youzhou. Lang Zhong bluntly said that the king's injury was too serious, and he couldn't help working hard by boat and car. It was precisely because of this that he did not follow The special envoys from the DPRK and China returned to the capital to report their duties together.

    This Yaoquan Villa is where many dignitaries and dignitaries in the vicinity often come, so the pavilions in the manor are also very gorgeous. Now, because of King Huaiyang's arrival, there are guards all over the manor inside and outside, and the guards are heavily guarded.

    Miantang walked around the perimeter of the manor, looking at the canals where the streams drawn down from the mountain converged, and she suddenly had an idea...

    The king of Huaiyang, as usual, soaked in the medicine spring pool for a while, and then lay down on the soft collapse of the warm pavilion to rest.

    He has practiced martial arts with masters since he was a child. In addition, he is very talented, and his ear is surprisingly good.

    So when the guard at the door fell like a chopped radish, he immediately woke up. The wet handkerchief covered his mouth and nose, and then he pulled up the quilt, covering half of his face, in a coma.

    After a while, after the smoke dissipated, a petite and exquisite figure appeared in the warm pavilion.

    Cui Xingzhou remained silent, only squinting, waiting for the assassin to get close to him, and then he gave the assassin a fatal blow.

    But what she never expected was that the assassin didn't seem to be in a hurry to draw the knife, but looked at him first, then took the stool beside him and placed it beside his soft couch, I also took a look at half of the letters he wrote.

    This kind of time-wasting letter is often written aimlessly and lacks literary grace.

    Cui Xingzhou's recent letters to Xizhou have been boring enough to describe how Kitten Mian'er urinates in his shoes.

    Sure enough, such a letter was also despised by the assassin, and he suddenly heard a soft "Bah"...

    Then the assassin finally rolled up his arms and sleeves to get down to business, and lifted the quilt directly, followed by a long silence.

    Just when Cui Xingzhou felt a little cold on his leg, he felt that something cool was applied to his injured leg.

    Cui Xingzhou got up and grabbed the hand of the "assassin".

    She was also surprised, she never thought that he was not overwhelmed by the drug!

      ?"

    Liu Miantang of course wants to be sneaky. She was afraid that Cui Xingzhou would not take the medicine, so she gave her a favor, so she planned to sneak in, apply it for him, and then leave the medicine jar behind.

    The rest of the medicine is not enough for her anyway, Cui Xingzhou figured this out, and she should happily use the rest of the medicine.

    Of course, behind the tens of thousands of excuses, Miantang wanted to take a look at Cui Xingzhou's injury and see if he was all right now. It's best to see him while he's sleeping. Neither procrastination nor childishness.

    Cui Xingzhou's whole body was boiling with blood when he brought a wet and cold piece of fragrant nephrite into his arms.

    When the two broke up, he never thought that he would miss this cruel girl so much. But now that he is holding her, Cui Xingzhou doesn't want to let go!

     "Let go of me, I'm here to deliver the medicine. Since the lord is awake, he will call for the medicine..."

      , I will let you go without trial, won't you faint?"

    She is so courageous, what else in the world is she afraid to do? Before, I really underestimated her!

    Mian Tang didn't struggle anymore after hearing what he said, thinking that he was worried and suspected that he was plotting evil. So he said honestly: "I sneaked in along the canal of the manor. The iron net of the river is not strong, and it will open when you twist it. You can turn back and ask someone to plug the loophole..."

    Cui Xingzhou heard a burst of anger, and said loudly: "Nonsense! The water is so cold, but you sneak in, how can your hands and feet stand such a cold?"

    After he finished speaking, he immediately tore off the small blanket beside him, wrapped her tightly, and then loudly called for someone to prepare clean clothes for her.
