Capture the Jade:
The lady in charge was crying fiercely, a woman interrupted her coldly and said: "It happened suddenly, Lady Teng must have a reason for her arrangement. Prince Cheng is the grandson of Daoist Master Qingxu, with him here, Are you afraid that you will not be able to save your wife? Where is Mrs. Teng now? She is still young, she must have been terrified when she encountered such a thing, so take us in quickly, I have to see her with my own eyes to be at ease."
Duan Wenyin's words were impeccable, and on the surface she cared for the Teng family, but in fact she reminded her younger brother not to lose his temper because of Dong Erniang.
Sure enough, Duan Ningyuan restrained himself, and immediately changed the subject: "Your Majesty, are the wounded inside the house?"
Madam Du was full of doubts, but she was relieved when she heard this.
Lin Chengyou responded and asked the palace man: "How is the house arranged?"
"According to the order of the crown prince, the five wounded women have been placed on a bed with a thick curtain in front of the bed, only the bottom of the skirt is exposed for identification."
"Mrs. An Guogong does not need to be placed with the other wounded. She has been possessed by a monster for so long. It is not known whether she can survive tonight. There is a cup of hot soup in the room and a calf cart in front of her for delivery. After taking the first dose of decoction, immediately send Mrs. An Guogong to Qingyun Temple."
"Yes."
Expecting that people from outside would come in, Teng Yu got up with her aunt.
A lot of people came, besides Lin Chengyou and people from Zhen Guogong's mansion, there were also many noble ladies with beautiful clothes on their temples.
The first person to enter the room was Duan Wenyin.
Recently, women in Chang'an are wearing Hu people's men's clothes, and Duan Wenyin is also keen on this. Although she is going to a banquet today, she does not wear a skirt, but wears Hu people's attire. With tight boots, she was already tall and straight, but this outfit was not obtrusive, but instead had a heroic demeanor.
Duan Wenyin looked around after entering the room, and strode towards Mrs. Du and Teng Yuyi: "Forgive us for being late, His Royal Highness is busy evacuating everyone, and we refuse to leave, so we must come and have a look. Don't worry, madam hasn't been frightened, right? Is Yu'er okay? How are the wounded in the house?"
Madam Du led Teng Yuyi to welcome him, and said with a smile: "Madam Lao is concerned, everything is fine now."
Teng Yuyi showed a sweet smile, and politely stepped forward and saluted.
Duan Wenyin embraced Teng Yuyi and looked up and down, goose yellow half arm, monofilament blue cage skirt, and the soap gauze of the fence can block the peeping from a distance, but can't stop the close-up look, look carefully, she is sincere Sigh, this child's eyes are like clear pools, and his complexion is as white as frost. He is truly an unparalleled beauty.
"I haven't seen you for three or four years. The last time the two families got married, Yu'er was still a little baby, and now she has grown so tall. I heard that Yu'er was coming a few days ago, and I happened to be in Chang'an , I was thinking of inviting you to Ximing Temple to enjoy the flowers in the past few days, but such a thing happened when I first came here. Fortunately, our aunt is here, otherwise I’m afraid I’m going to be scared."
Madam Du enthusiastically said: "This child has a strong heart, but he was never afraid of it, but the monster is too frightening, so you have to calm down when you turn around."
After that, Mrs. Du took Teng Yu to see other wives, including the in-laws of the Zhen Guo government, and the family members of colleagues who had a friendship with Teng Shao.
While speaking, Mrs. Du looked behind Duan Wenyin, and saw a young gentleman standing at the door, dressed in fine clothes and wearing a jade crown, with a pine-like figure, it was Little General Duan.
Mrs. Du smiled in her heart and eyes, the marriage is good, and the child's growth is getting better and better.
Little General Duan was quite courteous, and after entering the room, he lowered his eyes and cupped his hands and said, "Your younger generation has seen Madam."
Madam Du smiled and nodded: "Okay, you have a heart."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Mrs. Du inadvertently looked outside the house, if it weren't for Prince Cheng's pearls and jades by her side, the brilliance of the room would have been transferred to Ning Yuan. His cynical appearance is more eye-catching than General Duan.
Lin Chengyou refused to come in. While they were talking, he sat crookedly on the Hu chair outside, knocking on the handle carelessly with his fingers, and when the palace servants served tea, he put a talisman on the tea bowl to let They quickly served Mrs. An Guo.
The lady in charge of the Dong family has been following Lin Chengyou since she entered the house. Seeing that he was done, she knelt down in front of Lin Chengyou and said, "Your Majesty, saving lives is the most important thing. Please give this life-saving elixir to this old servant."
"No more." Lin Chengyou answered simply.
There was silence in the room, and everyone's eyes were turned away.
Duan Ningyuan stood quietly aside after saluting Mrs. Du, with a calm and self-possessed face, but he couldn't hide the fear in his eyes. After hearing this, he forced a smile and said: "My son loves to joke most. The view of Qingyun sweeps the world Taoist rare treasures, not to mention just a bottle of elixir, the art of bringing the dead back to life is not a problem. Take it out and reward this servant girl, so as not to be annoying and crying."
Lin Chengyou said unhurriedly: "The elixir is called Liuyuan elixir, and the ingredients are not easy to come by. Master has spent a lot of time refining this bottle of elixir, so I am reluctant to take it, so I use it for self-defense. The first one has been used up, and it’s okay to get another bottle, just wait a few years.”
Duan Wenyin and Mrs. Du looked at each other in astonishment. It turned out to be the famous Liuyuan Pill. I heard that this medicine can also be taken by ordinary people.
However, the refining of this medicine is all about chance, it may not be possible to get a bottle in ten years, because it is not easy to get, it is comparable to Wuhua Tianbao.
Many people in Chang'an City have heard of the Liuyuan Pill, and they are all greedy. Putting it on others may have caused disasters and disasters long ago. It is only because it is Lin Chengyou's that no one dares to make a move.
The lady in charge was stunned for a while, and couldn't help crying loudly: "How many years? Isn't my wife hopeless? The poor lady just arrived last month. She looks like a flower like a jade, but she is so miserable."
She cried and fell to the ground: "When the master arrives later, he will be heartbroken. Madam is sick in bed. If she hears the sad news of the madam, I'm afraid it won't happen. It's all because of the stupidity of the old slave. General Teng's family Even the three servants were saved, but my wife can only wait for death in vain."
This sounds desolate, but Teng Yuyi is accused of being selfish and ruthless both openly and secretly.
Duan Wenyin looked a little uncomfortable, Madam Du subconsciously protected Teng Yuyi behind her.
Yu Yi never acts right or wrong, but protects her weaknesses. Duan Fu has been by Yu Yi's side for many years and has always been loyal.
Of course we can't blame Yuyi for this matter, but Dong Erniang is at the age of a flower after all, it would be a pity if she lost her life. Right now, I can only hope that there is another way to become a prince, otherwise——
Everyone's attention was drawn by the crying of the woman in charge, but Teng Yuyi secretly paid attention to the curtain in front of Hu's bed. When Duan Ningyuan was talking to Lin Chengyou, the curtain moved slightly, and the range was extremely small. If you were not paying attention, you might not be able to notice it. . She knew it in her mind, and looked away calmly.
Lin Chengyou was also paying attention to the bed curtains. When he saw the tiny ripples in front of the bed, there was a little sarcasm on his lips. When he was about to get up, Duan Ningyuan discussed with him again: "My lord, besides Liuyuan Pill, there are other Another way?"
Lin Chengyou glanced at the room, and simply sat down again: "No. This monster, Caotai Muxin, caught up with the Shangsi Festival today, which is the day it became a demon. Its mana is beyond the reach of ordinary monsters. The evil energy became stronger during Zishi, if someone hadn't chopped off the monster's arm in advance and injured its vitality, the Liuyuan Pill might not have saved the life of the injured. Dong Erniang failed to take the medicine, and I can't help it."
Duan Ningyuan's Adam's apple rolled, and he paused every word: "Is there really no cure?"
"There is no cure."
Juesheng and Qizhi couldn't help but said: "Little General Duan, our senior brother was also injured, if there is still Liuyuan Dan, why didn't he take it for himself?"
Only then did everyone see that Lin Chengyou's robe was still stained with blood, and his complexion was much worse than before.
The palace people were scared out of their wits just now, and they didn't pay attention to Lin Chengyou's clothes. When they looked at Lin Chengyou's clothes, they were frightened and frightened. The bureau announced Yu Fengyu?"
Lin Chengyou impatiently raised his arm to block it: "Stop making a fuss."
The lady in charge is still mourning and crying: "It's a disaster. My wife is sick. Erniang waits on the bedside all day. It's rare to come out to celebrate the festival, so she lost her life. It's just a pill. Why is it so Cruel-"
Duan Ningyuan stood stiffly like a wooden sculpture, full of sorrow and nowhere to vent, remembering what happened just now, he glared angrily at Teng Yuyi.
This is his fiancée? Wearing a veil, she couldn't see her face clearly, but this woman was undoubtedly the most hideous person he had ever seen.
"There were talking and laughing on the way here, but it just disappeared." The lady in charge cried out of breath, "My second mother has a bodhisattva-like heart, and she is reluctant to spoil even the flowers and plants on weekdays. What evil! Why is Erniang..."
The lines on Duan Ningyuan's cheeks were faintly visible, and he was clearly clenching his teeth. Finally, he was stabbed in the heart by these words, and said suddenly: "Miss Teng, since the medicine is in your hands, I don't ask you to be selfless, but there are four How come the Teng family has all the elixir, and doesn't even distribute a single elixir to others?"
His voice was hoarse, obviously losing his mind with anger.
Duan Wenyin shouted: "Ningyuan!"
Madam Du said: "Little General Duan, Yu'er didn't know that there were only four pills in the bottle when she distributed the medicine to Mingzhu and the others. If she knew in advance that there were not enough medicines, she would definitely not arrange it like this."
"Should I know when the last one is? She still gave it to her own servants, so it can be seen that she only has herself in her eyes, and the lives of others are as light as grass to her. Sister, you understand, such a selfish and overbearing person Girl, is she a good match for the Duan family?"
The ladies were dumbfounded. Lin Chengyou looked up at Duan Ningyuan, with some surprise in his eyes.
Duan Wenyin was stunned for a moment, then said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Teng Yuyi gave a salute, and looked at Duan Wenyin calmly: "Ma'am heard, General Duan wants to withdraw from the Teng family because I saved the servants of the Teng family."
Duan Wenyin gave her younger brother a hard look, and softly comforted Teng Yuyi: "Ning Yuan drank a lot of wine at the banquet, so he would talk nonsense when his mind is muddled, Yu'er, please be more patient, don't take these drunken words to heart."
Teng Yuyi nodded: "Little General Duan made a slip of the tongue after drinking, and others should take care of him. Who should we ask to take care of us when we encounter monsters in the forest?"
Duan Ningyuan choked.
"We escaped from the forest with great difficulty, and the monsters chased us to Ziyun Tower. At that time, Lanxia Pavilion was in chaos, and my cousin and the others were in critical condition. I was afraid of delaying the good time to save people, so I couldn't estimate the number of pills before taking the medicine. , when I came out, I realized that there was only one grain left, General Duan, what would you do instead?"
Duan Ningyuan said angrily: "Since the Teng family has got three grains, for the sake of fairness, the last one should be distributed to others."
"But Duanfu is not just a servant of the Teng family." Teng Yuyi's tone was cold, "If Duanfu hadn't resisted for a while, we would have died in the forest. Now his life is dying, and I got the medicine but didn't save him , don’t you become an ungrateful person?”
Duan Ningyuan gritted his teeth, she was clearly making an argument, but due to the presence of too many people, he was unable to refute it openly.
"In your eyes, Duanfu is just a humble servant, but he is not our savior. If a person doesn't even care about his benefactor, what can he do to save a stranger who has never met before? I would like to ask Ask Little General Duan, do you regard me as an enemy, do you blame me for saving your savior, or do you blame me for not being able to save Dong Erniang? If I gave Dong Erniang the medicine but ignored Duanfu, would you still scold me for being unfair? ?!"
Duan Ningyuan froze, as if he had been slapped across the face, his face was burning with embarrassment.
The ladies are all experienced people, looking at the thick curtain in front of Hu's bed and looking at the lady in charge, slowly recalling it.
When we were in the courtyard, the palace people said that Mrs. Yong'an Hou would have to take care of Dong Erniang's entry into the Ziyun Tower. General Duan hurried over, but asked the servants of the Teng family to object to Teng Yuyi's accusations. It seems that they are here for Dong Erniang.
The more Mrs. Du thought about it, the more chilling she became, and she glared at Duan Ningyuan: "Yu'er has been frightened several times tonight, and it's fine for General Duan to be indifferent. Although she is young, she is still calm and self-possessed when things happen. Yu'er is half of the credit for saving so many people. If it were any other child, let alone sending medicine to save people, she would have fainted several times.
"As long as Duan Xiaojiang still has the heart, he will understand after a little thought. The medicine is not enough, it is not Yu'er's fault. "Selfish and domineering", we Yu'er can't stand it, "good match" is not "good match" ', General Duan is not qualified to say such **** words!"
Duan Ningyuan was ashamed, just now he was in a turmoil and angered others, now he calmed down, he knew that he had gone too far, in front of everyone, he knew that there was nothing to refute, so he simply lifted up his robe to make amends.
Teng Yuyi sneered in her heart. At this point, how could she give him a chance to speak up? Since General Duan himself said that he wants to withdraw the engagement, I would like to invite all the wives to be witnesses."
Duan Wenyin's complexion changed drastically. Teng Yuyi's words made it clear that she was going to fight against the general. She should have expected that the Teng family's children would have strong ideas and would never be wronged in vain. Misunderstood, the lady in charge of the Dong family was crying endlessly, which inevitably made people uncomfortable. Ning Yuan asked those words, just to make this confused woman figure out the truth. Come here and question your family members. Ning Yuan, I said earlier that you were too upright. It was out of good intentions. The drunken words you said caused Yu’er to misunderstand. Madam apologizes!"
Teng Yuyi shook her head sadly: "Little General Duan is drunk or sad, I can't tell the difference. I will write to Aye tomorrow to inform Aye of this matter, and ask him to make up his mind. Ladies, you have a lot of experience and you understand things well." , I ask you to help make a judgment on what happened tonight."
The ladies didn't want to get involved in the disputes between the two families, but when they heard that Teng Yuyi insisted on telling Teng Shao about the matter, it can be seen that this child will not let the Duan family fool him. Teng Shao is a powerful person, what General Duan did tonight It's also really chilling, they can't pretend to be confused anymore, and hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, we have encountered so many things when we first arrived in Chang'an, we all understand in our hearts, Yu'er has been wronged."
Duan Ningyuan's face turned green and then turned red for a while, Duan Wenyin was annoyed and helpless, Yuyi looked ignorant of worldly affairs, but her temper was so decisive, she wanted to settle the matter of retiring the engagement in just a few words.
What should I do now, Ning Yuan was so confused in front of so many people that he couldn't hide it even if he tried to cover it up, it really got to the point of retiring the engagement, and the fault was all on his younger brother. Leaving Ziyun Tower tonight, rumors will spread throughout Chang'an tomorrow.
