Capture the Jade

Duan Wenyin was confused: "This poisonous insect is only owned by the Prince Cheng, Dalang, have you dealt with the Prince Cheng these few days?"

Du Tinglan and Teng Yuyi looked at each other, and at this point, she still tried to help her brother clear the relationship with Dong Erniang. Does this mean that Lin Chengyou is plotting against Duan Ningyuan? It also depends on whether Lin Chengyou is willing to take this charge.

Guo saw the big round eyes of the county master of Azhi: "Mrs. is that the worm that my brother gave to General Duan?"

Duan Wenyin was stunned for a while, and then hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't worry about the county lord, I mean that since this bug is raised in Qingyunguan, it is inevitable that one or two will come out. When Ning Yuan was dealing with the prince, he accidentally got on it. Unknown."

Azhi was unhappy, and turned to look at Juesheng and Jizhi behind him: "I don't know Taoism either, you can speak for your brother."

Juesheng and Qizhi wanted to speak for a long time, but because they couldn't expose themselves in front of others at will, they didn't make a move. Since the Jingde County Master personally exposed their identities, they don't have to be concerned anymore.

Qizhi said truthfully: "Mrs. Yongan Hou's words are not understandable to the poor. Although this worm is a thing of Qingyunguan, my brother will never release it for no reason. I used this method to deal with Dong Erniang that day because she was implicated. The people in Ziyun Tower refused to tell the truth. If they were casual, they would get infected with the worm. I don’t know how many people inside and outside the palace suffered. But so far, no more than five people in Chang’an City have been infected with the worm, and all of them have worms. for that reason."

Jue Sheng said with a stern face: "That's right, let alone our brothers and sisters who haven't seen General Duan at all recently. Even if they did, General Duan would never have the chance to contract poisonous insects."

The faces of the guests were even more embarrassing. This is clear enough. He knows how Duan Ningyuan got infected, and he can't think of putting it on the head of Prince Cheng.

Qizhi said again: "Itchy bugs like young men who are hot and strong. When they meet a better host, they often abandon their old hosts. Judging from the situation of General Duan, it should be that the original host's itchy bugs are drawn to themselves. There are only two people in Chang'an City who are infected with poisonous insects. Where did General Duan get it, just go to the prison in Jingzhao Mansion and see."

Duan Ningyuan was in purgatory, but his sanity was not completely lost. Hearing this, he calmed down a bit. He and Dong Erniang had not seen each other for several days. The poisoning would not have come from her, there must be another way.

As long as the poisonous insects on Dong Erniang's body are still there, they can maintain each other's reputation.

He staggered and struggled, and spit out a sentence: "I...I don't know that Dong Erniang at all. Even if I have poisonous insects, I will never get it from this person."

After Duan Wenyin heard this, she hurriedly winked at several stewards: "While all the elders are here, hurry up and send someone to Jingzhao Mansion to have a look, and come back and report after confirming it, and save Ning Yuan from being wronged."

The servant was about to leave, but heard Azhi say: "Wait a minute, remember to bring the servants of each prefecture as evidence."

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

Unexpectedly, in order to prevent his brother from taking the blame for nothing, the county master of Azhi asked all the prefectures to send people, so how can he cover it up in time. Subconsciously, I wanted to obstruct, but doing so would be too guilty.

After thinking about it again, Ning Yuan spoke so frankly, and offered to go to Jingzhao Mansion to check, thinking that he knew more about his whereabouts these days than they did, maybe this poisonous insect really didn't come from Dong Erniang.

So no longer blocked, busy also responded.

"You go with the steward of the Duan family. Take a closer look at the Jingzhao Mansion and come back soon to report." Azhi held his cheeks as he spoke, but his expression was serious.

When everyone spoke, Duan's mother and son became even more violent. Both of them looked like crazy, scratching themselves constantly. If they didn't detoxify, they would catch a piece of good meat sooner or later.

Madam Duan and Duan Wenyin looked at their eyes, their hearts clenched together, Duan Wenyin felt distressed for her mother and younger brother, and said in a hurry: "Little Daoist, I just said inappropriately, I hope Daoist don't take it to heart, regardless of whether Dalang is How the poisonous insects got infected, since it is a thing of Qingyunguan, can you ask the Taoist priest to help detoxify as soon as possible."

Juesheng and Qizhi shook their heads: "The medicinal powder has been locked up by senior brother, only senior senior brother can use it. Even if we rush back to Guanli immediately, we will not be able to rescue him. For the present, we can only find senior senior brother."

Old Madam Duan's eyes lit up: "Can the two priests tell the old man, where is the prince now? You guys should prepare the cart and let the old man personally invite the prince."

***

The matter in the flower hall soon spread to the front, and the Duan family wanted to move Duan Ningyuan and Mrs. Duan to the inner courtyard in order to take care of their dignity.

However, Duan Ningyuan and Mrs. Duan were tortured. Every time they took a step, even the flesh of the belt shook. Not to mention going to the inner courtyard, even walking out of the flower hall was a delusion.

The servants had no choice but to find a rope, intending to tie the two, but they were hesitant to come forward for fear of the poisonous insect.

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

Fortunately, the Duan family was very skilled in managing the family, and the middle hall opened up in a blink of an eye.

The guests were not only afraid of being rude, but also wanted to know how the Duan family ended. 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 wide six-curved Luodian flower and bird screens in the middle, so that they can have a feast together without losing their courtesy.

Teng Yuyi and Du Tinglan sat next to Mrs. Duan, and both had good appetites.

Du Tinglan was not good at drinking, so she concentrated on eating, but Teng Yuyi drank a lot of wine slowly. The calamus wine brewed by Duan's family was good. After drinking it, it was full of fragrance. The sent servants come back.

Whenever there are servants in and out of the court, everyone's eyes will change, and someone suddenly said: "Come, come."

The servant ran to Mrs. Duan in a flash: "Master has invited Prince Cheng, the prince has just dismounted."

There were voices coming from the front of the central hall, and soon Duke Zhen Guo led King Lin Chengyou in.

Duke Zhen Guogong was a famous Confucian general, over forty years old, dignified and dignified, the other person wore a blue sky-blue round-neck tee shirt with a white jade belt around his waist. who is it.

Duke Zhenguo's voice was as loud as a bell: "I really don't want to disturb Your Highness and the prince, but I heard that only the prince can solve the poisonous insects, so the old man has no choice but to give up his old face to find the prince."

Lin Chengyou said: "Why did the grandfather of the country say this, even if there is no matter of General Duan, the old lady in the house is celebrating her birthday, and the younger generation should have come over to congratulate him."

Jingde County Lord happily greeted him: "Brother."

Jue Sheng and Ji Zhi busy also followed.

Lin Chengyou looked at Azhi: "Is it fun?"

"It was great fun."

Lin Chengyou snorted. He was busy looking for traces of Yaoyi all day long. He heard that Azhi ran out of the palace, worried that his sister would encounter a monster, and hurriedly sent Juesheng and Qizhi. Recklessly, he deliberately sighed: "It seems that you are too old, and you will come out to have fun by yourself. In the future, you won't need brother to play with you, you can find someone to play with yourself."

Jingde County Master knew that her brother blamed her for leaving the house without authorization, and muttered: "No, I want my brother, how can others compare with my brother."

Duke Zhen Guo smiled and said, "The princess and the prince are more and more like each other."

Lin Chengyou patted Azhi's head and looked up at Zhongtang: "Is the old lady in the house on the table, the younger generation wants to go over and say goodbye to the old birthday star."

Duke Zhen Guo was very honored: "The prince will help the dog to detoxify the poison later. If you are not busy, be sure to enjoy the light and drink a glass of wine before leaving."

Old Madam Duan did not dare to be slow, and stood up tremblingly: "Hurry up and take a seat for the prince."

Lin Chengyou smiled and saluted: "The younger generation came over to ask the ancestors for a drink."

When he appeared, the faces of several noble ladies at the banquet had turned red, and they didn't know whether they were drunk or shy.

The female family members of the Duan family felt that their faces were bright, and they hurriedly asked the servants to pour wine, asking for warmth, and being attentive.

After a few words of greetings, Lin Chengyou pretended to inadvertently swept around the ladies' banquet behind Old Madam Duan, and finally set his eyes on Teng Yuyi, sneering in his heart.

Teng Yuyi had just finished drinking a cup of wine, and when she raised her eyes, she met Lin Chengyou's line of sight. With the word "doubt" written all over her face, she slowly put down the wine cup.

Juesheng and Qizhi were stunned for a while, and the senior brother looked at Madam Teng...it didn't seem quite right.

After thinking about it for a while, suddenly my brain exploded. Madam Teng deceived a package of itchy bugs and medicinal powder from them last time. Senior brother probably suspected that Madam Teng did it.

The two glanced suspiciously at Teng Yuyi. If Madam Teng was really making fun of Little General Duan, how could she be so calm.

Moreover, in the flower hall earlier, Mrs. Teng looked so panicked, she was clearly also frightened.

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

The Duke of Zhen Guo led Lin Chengyou out the door: "People are in the flower hall, please come with the old man."

Lin Chengyou arrived outside the hall, suddenly stopped on the steps, then bent his fingers into a ring, whistling.

A shadow suddenly appeared on the eaves, and jumped down from the beam.

The thing moved swiftly, leaping to the bright spot in front of the steps, revealing the shiny black back hair.

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

After the female family members were surprised, they shyly whispered, and the prince Chengzi really did not change his playfulness. This thing is just right for hunting on weekdays, how can it be brought into the inner house to play.

The little cheetah circled around Lin Chengyou's robe and let out a few low growls, which made the flowers and plants in the courtyard rustled. Then he lowered his body and put his paws on Lin Chengyou's robe.

Teng Yuyi saw that he forgot the wine cup in his hand, and did not know how Lin Chengyou trained to make such a beast bow down to him.

Lin Chengyou smiled and said to Zhen Guo justice: "I didn't have any powder on me today, it's too troublesome to rush back to Guanli, so I can only make do with it to help detoxify."

Duke Zhen nodded: "I remember that this was the spirit beast that the Sinhala Kingdom paid tribute to. The sage saw that the prince liked it and sent it to the palace. The old man only knew that this thing had extraordinary spiritual power, but he didn't know that it would detoxify."

The Lord of Jingde County took a preserved lychee from his waist and threw it to the little black panther: "If you reward you, eat it."

The little black panther stretched out his paws and pushed aside the preserved lychee in disgust.

The county master of Jingde stomped his feet in anger: "Junnu, why are you being so rude to me again. Humph!"

Lin Chengyou squatted down and tugged at Junnu's pointed ears: "Azhi likes you, you can eat one as a treat."

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

Lin Chengyou said, "Hey, Azhi is my younger sister. I'm so embarrassed by you."

Junnu let out a whimper, then leaned in to sniff the preserved lychee, and ate it slowly.

Duke Zhen Guo saw that Jun Nu was ready, and took advantage of the situation to lead Lin Chengyou forward: "Just now someone said that Ning Yuan was infected by a certain little lady, this is really absurd, the dog and the little lady have nothing to do with each other, why is there no reason? Will it be infected? Besides, although the dog has no shape, it is not such a person who does not know the importance of it. According to the old man, it can only be infected from other places."

Lin Chengyou paused: "What does the grandfather of the country mean?"

Duke Zhen Guo sighed: "I'm afraid that some gangsters will deliberately do something sneaky in order to frame the dog. The old man dares to ask, has Qingyunguan dropped poisonous insects recently?"

Teng Yuyi put down the wine cup unhurriedly. She had thought about everything in advance. Even if Lin Chengyou deliberately dragged her in, she would have a way to deal with it.

The hearts of Jue Sheng and Abandoning Wisdom suddenly jumped into their throats. If the senior brother told Lady Teng's worms, she would not be able to tell.

Fortunately, Azhi County Master has already sent someone to Jingzhao Mansion. As long as it is confirmed that the poisonous insects on Dong Erniang are gone, it means that the poisonous insects on General Duan's body are from Dong Erniang's body. in a hurry.

The two looked outside for a while, and Lin Chengyou for a while, so nervous that they didn't dare to come out.

Lin Chengyou glanced at the seat from the corner of his eye, and suddenly smiled: "My grandfather has underestimated our Qingyun Temple. Even if someone wants to steal insects, they have to be able to enter the gate of my Qingyun Temple, right? Recently, there is only one insect in our temple. Not lost."

Duke Zhen's face froze.

Lin Chengyou took the lead and walked forward: "Detoxify Mrs. Zun and General Duan first."

The group was about to go to the flower hall, and the gang of servants who were sent to Jingzhao Mansion came back.

The leading palace servant went straight to the county master of Jingde: "The county master."

"Have you seen it?" Jingde County Lord asked curiously, "Is the poisonous insect on Dong Erniang still there?"

Everyone pricked up their ears one after another, and Madam Duan and Duan Wenyin held their breaths for fear that they would not be able to hear it if they were too far away. Duke Zhen Guo stopped and looked solemnly at the servant.

The servant shook his head: "I'm gone, Dong Erniang drank a big bowl of porridge in the evening, she felt much better, and she didn't feel itchy anymore."

Azhi asked the servants of the various houses who went with him: "You have also gone to see, is this really the case?"

"Back to the county master's words, I have confirmed that the poisonous insects on Dong Erniang are indeed gone."

The princess of Jingde nodded with satisfaction, and Lin Chengyou glanced at Teng Yuyi meaningfully.

The people at the table looked at each other. They had already heard about General Duan and Dong Erniang, but they couldn't come up with conclusive evidence. What else can they say about the Duan family this time? This worm is terrible, but only people who have had close contact with it will catch it. Here, General Duan just had an attack, and Dong Erniang saw it. Where did General Duan's poisonous insects come from, we still have to guess.

Old Madam Duan and Duan Wenyin's expressions seemed to be split, and it was hard to see the extremes in an instant.

Duke Zhen Guo's body was half cold, and he said angrily, "This villain!"
