Chapter 827: The First Test of Poison
He doesn't have three heads and six arms, so he can't do everything.
The difficulty of the county government depends on Zhuo Shen's ability.
"Good tea, good tea, it really deserves its reputation!" The steward let out a sigh and looked at the tea soup with appreciation, "How much tea do you have, I want it all!" ”
Pu Yangxuan's eyes flashed with joy, as if he was about to make a fortune.
"I have two cans here, and three more at my lodgings, and if you want, I'll deliver them tomorrow." Sixty wen a can, if you want it all, a total of 290 wen will be counted as you? ”
"It's not expensive," the steward nodded, and took out the money briskly, "Give me these two cans first, I'll pay you one hundred and twenty yuan, and you'll pay the rest tomorrow when you come." ”
"Okay." Puyang Xuan happily took the money, her eyes lit up with excitement, "Tomorrow morning, I will send you the other three cans!" ”
"Hmm!" The steward sniffed the two pots of tea, waved his hand and walked to the door, saying to himself, "This tea tastes refreshing, and the nobles must like it." ”
He walked away, and the remaining servants went on with their work.
There were two officials who saw that Pu Yangxuan hadn't left yet, and waved their hands to make a drive outfit, "Okay, let's leave quickly if there's nothing to do, the county government is heavy, and the idle people can't wait for a long time." ”
Pu Yangxuan looked like he loved money, touched the copper plate in his hand, nodded and said, "The small one will go, this will go......"
After speaking, he and Xue Jinyi left the back door of the county office.
Out of the alley, Xue Jinyi covered her mouth and smiled: "Our old man's acting skills are getting more and more powerful. ”
"Thanks to your guidance, old woman." Pu Yangxuan bowed his hand to her very modestly.
Xue Jinyi smiled even more happily, "Tomorrow, a famous person will finally come to the county office, but they are quite strict in guarding, and it seems that they can't get in." ”
Even if you only send people to sneak in and out to deliver the news, you have to be extra cautious.
It really can only depend on General Zhuo's ability.
Pu Yangxuan tugged at her hand, "We have earned a little money today, what are we going to do?" ”
Xue Jinyi raised her eyebrows, "Let's go eat Huayin's special snacks?" ”
"Let's go."
The two can't show too much affection on the street, so as not to arouse suspicion, but they walk side by side, and the backs of their hands touch each other from time to time while walking, and there is also a little sweetness in it.
When the sun was setting, they returned to the Luan family's Zhuangzi.
In the sky above Zhuangzi, curling smoke rises, quiet and peaceful.
When they passed by the courtyard surnamed Qian, they saw that the gate was closed and there was no sound inside, as if they had gone out to do business, so they did not think too much about it, and returned to their own courtyard first.
Jin Yang came to report: "The Yang family and his wife went out early this morning, Wang Gongzi followed them, and the Luan brothers and sisters were taking care of the affairs of Zhuangzi. ”
Pu Yangxuan asked, "What has been found on the side of the surnamed Wang?" ”
Jin Yang said: "Wang Gongzi tried to kill the Yang couple again and again, but he failed to succeed, and his mood became more and more impatient. ”
"Isn't it that the people above ask the surnamed Wang to get rid of the two of us, otherwise he will be severely punished?" Xue Jinyi touched her chin, "If he hasn't been able to succeed, he will be hacked to death by the remnants of the previous dynasty, right?" ”
Pu Yangxuan continued: "The Wang family knows the secret of the remnants of the previous dynasty, and such an unfavorable person will definitely not be able to tolerate everyone up and down from the previous dynasty. ”
Xue Jinyi snapped her fingers, "At that time, they will instinctively survive, and as long as there is a glimmer of hope, they will never give up." ”
"At that time, it will be of use to us."
Xue Jinyi pursed her lips and smiled, and a few people came to the next room again.
A man was sitting at a table with a few lit candles, which, judging by the melted wax, had been lit in broad daylight.
Under the bright candlelight, there were two square pieces of red paper, each with a white finger print.
The people at the table were comparing.
Xue Jinyi came to the table lightly and stared at the red piece of paper.
At first glance it looks familiar, but the truth is in the subtleties.
The comparison was not over yet, she didn't disturb the man, and came out of the house lightly, holding Pu Yangxuan's arm and coming to the stove, "Okay, our main task now is to eat enough!" ”
After nightfall, Xue Jinyi and Pu Yangxuan came to the cellar, and the two people of the ancient city of the West Night were tied to a wooden stake on the ground, their eyes and mouths were sealed, and they could only make a low "whine" sound, and they twisted a few times weakly, and they could not change their current situation.
Pu Yang Xuan took out two small black pills from the small porcelain bottle he brought back, Jin Yang stepped forward quickly, and after neatly sealing the acupoints of the two people, he untied the cloth strip on his mouth.
The two of them felt that the confinement on their mouths was untied and wanted to shout, but their mouths opened and closed, and they were stunned and there was no sound.
Pu Yangxuan took advantage of this time to throw the small black pill into the mouths of the two of them.
According to Dr. Zhu's instructions, this pill should be taken two hours in advance before it can be effective.
The pill melted in the mouth, and the two of them had no chance to spit it out at all, not to mention that the acupuncture point was sealed, and they couldn't help themselves.
The pill was down, and the two of them didn't look like they had changed.
Jin Yang resealed their mouths, and several people quietly exited the cellar.
The two people of the West Night Ancient City were panicked and confused in their hearts.
Where are they, what time is it now, who are the people who captured them, and what was just done to them?
Why are they still alive and well?
Could it be that those people haven't figured out how to torture and kill them?
A series of questions made them panic, and in fear they felt like they couldn't breathe, maybe they would die in the blink of an eye!
On the other side, as the night wore on, the farm fell silent again, and the man surnamed Qian next door had returned, and he had rested after a hasty dinner. Pu Yangxuan stood in the wing room and changed into a night suit.
"I'm just going to try to see if Dr. Zhu's medicine works, and I'll be back soon." He said softly to Xue Jinyi, wanting to reassure her.
"Okay." Xue Jinyi smiled and agreed, "There is sweet soup in the stove room, you are back, go eat by yourself, I, I want to sleep well." She leaned over and pounded her thigh, pretending to be tired of walking today.
Pu Yangxuan also smiled and pinched her face, "Okay, you go to sleep." ”
He cupped her cheek and kissed her on the lips.
"Give you a goodnight kiss in advance."
Xue Jinyi sweetly hooked the corners of her lips and pinched Pu Yangxuan's face, "Okay, come back early." ”
"Yes!" Pu Yangxuan gave her a flying kiss.
Xue Jinyi looked at him with a smile and waved her hand, "See you tomorrow morning." ”
"Wait for my good morning kiss." Pu Yangxuan left the last sentence, went out directly through the window, and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.
Xue Jinyi stood by the window, looking into the distance.
Qinglan walked over lightly, "Lady, the girl who is good at embroidery is coming to you again today." ”
"Again?" Xue Jinyi frowned slightly, this is too persistent.
