309: Letter from home in Beijing, great gift and disaster
Tuk Tuk~!
"Master Marquis, I have something important to report to you."
"Tianlong?"
Zuo Chongming raised his eyebrows and put away Ouyang Yu's body calmly: "Come in."
After seeing the ceremony, Chen Tianlong reported in a low voice: "Master Hou, there is news from the brothers in Beijing that the matter has been settled smoothly."
Zuo Chongming knocked on the table and ordered: "Send a message to them, and when the Prime Minister's Mansion is in mourning, send someone to express condolences in my name."
"Uh...yes."
Chen Tianlong suddenly looked strange and nodded in agreement.
"By the way, remember to prepare some gifts."
Zuo Chongming sneered and said: "Wei Wen died to prove his innocence. This shows that Prime Minister Wei has a good way of teaching his son. The actions of Mr. Wei are both praiseworthy and deplorable."
"Yes, this matter should be written down in a big book and promoted as an example."
Chen Tianlong echoed: "I have ordered my brothers to use this incident as a prototype to adapt various picture albums, storybooks, dramas..."
Zuo Chongming said quietly: "As a gift, let's give you a bowl of jelly."
Now that Wei Wen is dead, it is necessary for him to inform Wei Tao why Wei Wen died and who killed him.
"..."
Chen Tianlong twitched the corner of his mouth, looked at him speechlessly, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Master Hou, you are just rubbing salt into the wound, killing people and killing people."
Zuo Chongming sneered: "The Prime Minister's desire to kill this prince is not dead. Now to cut off the incense of the Wei family is just killing people, which is far from punishing his heart."
Chen Tianlong reported in a deep voice: "Master Hou, because Emperor Wu is in ill health, this matter is no longer a secret, so the fight for the heir apparent has become more and more intense."
"Lie? You're thinking too much."
Zuo Chongming shook his head: "The so-called intensification is nothing more than appearances. The old guys who can really shake up the situation are still ready to attack."
After talking in detail for a while, Chen Tianlong received the reward and happily resigned and left.
When Zuo Chongming waited for him to leave, the smile on his face was replaced by seriousness, and he got up and rushed towards the Hou Mansion.
If his prediction was correct, the great gift Ouyang Yu mentioned was probably related to Nan Yuyan.
Return to the Hou Mansion.
But I saw the servants and maids in the mansion gathered around the front yard, buzzing about something.
In order to make the drama "Ouyang Yu Poisoned" realistic, Zuo Chongming did poison the people in the house.
However, what he administered was not a highly poisonous drug, but a rare intoxicating drug that would cause you to wake up on your own after being comatose for a while, leaving you with a sour taste in your mouth.
"I've met the Marquis."
"No gifts."
Zuo Chongming forced a smile and said in a deep voice: "The poison on your body has been released. Drink more mung bean water when you go back, and you will be fine."
"The target of the Liansheng Sect this time is me, but you have suffered an unreasonable disaster. I feel guilty in my heart."
As soon as these words came out, the servants in the palace quickly said: "Master Marquis, please don't feel guilty. I will be very grateful to you for saving my life."
Their gratitude is truly not fake.
Because servants like them in the Hou Mansion have signed a deed of betrayal and are Zuo Chongming's private property.
In other words, if Zuo Chongming allowed them to die, no one could blame him.
In today's world, where human life is as cheap as grass, Zuo Chongming's action is already a great act of kindness.
"Lao Jiang."
"Master Hou."
Jiang Fenglong walked over quickly, waiting for instructions.
Zuo Chongming muttered and ordered: "All the servants in the mansion will be rewarded with ten taels of silver each to suppress their shock."
"Those who are implicated in poisoning will be rewarded with an extra ten taels of silver, plus ten catties of pork and five catties of eggs."
"My servants are going to have weddings and funerals in the near future, and the government has full authority to take care of all expenses."
"If anyone intends to run away, return the deed of sale to them and give them five taels of silver for settlement expenses."
"As commanded."
Jiang Fenglong Su Rong responded.
"Thank you, Lord Marquis."
The servants were immediately overjoyed and quickly knelt down to thank him.
They never expected that the Marquis not only saved them, but also compensated them.
"You deserve this."
Zuo Chongming smiled and walked towards the backyard: "How is the princess? Nothing happened?"
Jiang Fenglong replied hesitantly: "In response to what the Marquis said, the princess has woken up and has no physical symptoms, but she seems to be very frightened..."
Zuo Chongming narrowed his eyes and nodded gently: "I understand, let me prepare. I need to take a shower and change clothes."
It's not that he's not anxious, but it's useless to be anxious.
Since Ouyang Yu chose to reveal the news before she died rather than take it to the coffin, it shows that she was absolutely fully prepared.
Based on this premise, what Zuo Chongming should do is to find ways to make up for the situation, rather than rushing to see Nan Yuyan.
About two hours passed, and it was getting dark.
Zuo Chongming put on a loose white robe and walked unhurriedly to the other courtyard where Nan Yuyan was.
"My maid has met the Marquis."
"Excuse me, has the princess ever rested?"
"The princess drank a bowl of ginseng soup after she woke up, and then stayed in the house..."
"During this period, apart from today's poisoning, are there any special things?"
"This...servant doesn't know."
The maid shook her head in confusion, and then hesitantly said: "The special thing seems to be this morning, someone sent a letter from home."
"What's so special about it?"
Zuo Chongming's pupils shrank.
Nan Yuyan only has two relatives. One of them is the Qi Shenghe family who had left Beijing with Zuo Chongming and came to Xiyun Mansion to develop.
The other ones are naturally her biological father, Emperor Wu, and her adoptive mother, Concubine Wu.
The person she often communicated with was Concubine Wu in the capital.
"In the past, I sent letters, but this time it was a small box."
The maid said: "The princess was also very curious, but she was eating at the time, so she asked the maid to take it to the room, and then she was poisoned..."
"I understand, please step back."
Zuo Chongming stepped back, covered his eyes with deep thought, took a few steps to the door, and knocked lightly.
Sure enough, there is no response. But breathing evenly, the person is still alive?
Zuo Chongming's sword force burst out from his fingertips and cut the latch along the crack of the door.
The dark interior had no impact on him. After a few random glances, he took in the layout of this boudoir.
Easily, he found Nan Yuyan lying on the bed, breathing evenly.
Next to Nan Yuyan's bed, there was an open small box, and she was holding a piece of letter paper in her hand.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "As expected."
Zuo Zhongming sighed secretly, and turned his sword energy into green willows and wind, rolling up the small box on the bed and the letter in Nan Yuyan's hand.
In addition to a broken piece of jade, there was an unopened letter in the box, and there was no signature on the envelope.
With his mind racing, he stretched out his hand to pick up the letter Nan Yuyan opened and read through the ten lines at a glance.
The letter was written by Concubine Wu, and the content was very simple.
He only briefly mentioned what happened in the capital, and then asked Nan Yuyan how she was doing. They were all trivial matters between mother and daughter.
Finally, Concubine Wu said that she had obtained a rare treasure, which she could wear with her after dripping blood, which would have a beautifying effect.
After reading it, Zuo Chongming's eyes fell on the box.
This piece of broken jade must be the rare treasure mentioned by Concubine Wu.
And Nan Yuyan hasn't woken up yet, so it's likely that this strange treasure is causing trouble.
Zuo Chongming frowned: "Combined with what the maid said, it is not difficult to guess that the letter should be fake... To be precise, the content involving the exotic treasure is fake."
The real purpose of the messenger was to make Nan Yuyan drip blood onto the jade stone.
"interesting."
Zuo Chongming picked up the letter in the box and felt it was heavy. After opening it, he discovered that it was not paper but a photographic stone.
The sword essence is injected and the screen appears.
Ouyang Yu was dressed in white and stared at him calmly: "Zuo Chongming, if you get this photo stone, it means I am dead."
"I know your character, and I know even better the consequences of going against you. You will never let me go, and I will not bow down to survive."
"But I want to say that you are not unparalleled in resourcefulness or invincible. You would not have thought that I was not merging with the sub-personality, but peeling her off."
When she said this, the corners of her lips slightly raised, showing a rare cunningness like a little girl.
"She and I are one body. No matter who is missing, we are destined not to live for long. I am completely dead, but that idiot is still alive."
"Since she will die sooner or later, it might as well be used to trouble you, so I thought of a good way... let her merge with Nan Yuyan."
"Haha, you told me about the artifacts of the Wu Dynasty and ancient secrets..."
"Later on, I have been secretly consulting classical books, trying to find more detailed information. The hard work paid off, and I really found the clue."
"If you want to obtain the artifacts of the Wu Dynasty, it seems that you have to go through blood sacrifices and other methods, and you must be a direct member of the royal family of the Wu Dynasty."
"Maybe this is why you are so tolerant and gentle towards Nan Yuyan? Because you feel guilty for him!!"
"So now, your plan...has a problem."
"Nan Yuyan and that idiot, their souls and consciousnesses are intertwined and fused..."
"For the sake of your plan, will you choose to save Nan Yuyan and kill that idiot who loves you to the core with your own hands?"
"Tsk tsk tsk~"
"How can a champion who is domineering, unparalleled in scheming, and knows no tricks to solve this problem solve this problem?"
"Ah ah ah... so cruel."
"Oh, yes, you still have a choice, that is to kill Nan Yuyan."
"But if this happens, not only will your plan completely fail, but Nan Yuyan will also be killed by your own hands."
"If I remember correctly, this little fool also loves you deeply and deeply..."
"Of course, if the champion cannot make a decision in time, they will completely merge."
"In this way, Nan Yuyan and Idiot seem to be alive, but in fact they are no longer themselves."
"Zuo Chongming, Champion!!"
Ouyang Yu smiled proudly, presumptuously, and regardless of his manners: "...You will definitely lose this time!"
The light in the room suddenly disappeared and darkness returned.
Zuo Chongming rubbed the photo stone and couldn't help but frown.
To be fair, Ouyang Yu did leave him a big gift.
He was talking about a big gift in the literal sense, not a difficult problem or anything like that.
As Ouyang Yu said.
The sub-personality is inherently incomplete, like a vine.
Once, she was wrapped around the tree trunk of her personality, but now she is wrapped around Nan Yuyan.
