Chapter 254: Shaobai, just wait for my good news...
Xue Ji stood behind Shi Miyuan, not daring to move.
Shi Miyuan is painting.
What he painted was a lake.
Smoked willows paint the bridge, the wind is warm and the clouds are clear.
There is a boat on the lake.
There was a woman on the boat.
Her black hair was tied into a tall bun with a green hosta stuck on it.
The woman is smiling, her eyes and brows are as pure as a quiet landscape in spring.
Shi Miyuan's eyes fell on the woman's waist, where a jade pendant hung.
"I asked you to give me a gift, but I didn't expect you would choose to give it."
Shi Miyuan's voice was cold and cold.
Xue Ji felt as if everything around him was frozen by the sound.
He was even too cold to speak.
However, Shi Miyuan's eyes were staring directly at him.
It was obvious that he was waiting for his answer.
Xue Ji had to swallow hard.
It was as if that spittle could double his courage.
Shi Miyuan's gaze became more and more like a sword.
Xue Ji finally replied tremblingly:
"Back to Shi Gong, when you came back that night, you said that the girl was like a piece of beautiful jade that had not been carved. I thought..."
Shi Miyuan suddenly raised his head, with murderous intent appearing in his eyes.
"What do you think, what do you think?"
Xue Ji quickly lowered his head.
"That was just a show, okay? You actually gave her the jade pendant? That jade pendant was given to me by the late emperor. Who in the royal family doesn't recognize her?"
"It was Shi Gong who was still wise. With just a few words, Miss Wuchen gave the jade pendant to Shi Gong."
"Am I wise?"
Shi Miyuan kicked him: "If I were wise, I wouldn't treat a waste like you."
Xue Ji was suddenly kicked to the back of the door. If he hadn't had some martial arts skills, his head would have been swollen.
He didn't dare to speak anymore, and he didn't dare to go down to apply the wounds on his face. He could only lower his head and wait for Shi Miyuan's next instructions.
However, Shi Miyuan asked again:
"What do you think I should do with that little girl?"
Xue Ji raised his eyes and looked at Shi Miyuan.
Shi Miyuan's eyes were actually somewhat soft.
Obviously, Shi Miyuan did not want to put Wuchen to death.
"Shi Gong, Miss Wuchen is very skilled in martial arts and is also proficient in medical acupoints. Maybe one day, she will become a good helper to Shi Gong."
"That wild girl wants to eat me alive, so how can she be my good helper?"
Shi Miyuan was actually laughing,
"However, if you think about it carefully, those little beasts in my family only know how to cause trouble for me all day long, but they are really not as capable as Wuchen."
Xue Ji didn't dare to answer the call.
Shi Miyuan patted his shoulder gently: "If you want Wuchen to be used by me, you may have to work hard to continue pretending to be a heartless person."
After saying that, Shi Miyuan burst into laughter.
Xue Ji groaned secretly in his heart, but could not say anything more and had no choice but to laugh along with Shi Miyuan.
"only……"
Shi Miyuan suddenly stopped laughing, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, he dropped the pen in his hand,
"Go and find out how Zhao Tian met Wuchen and what relationship he has with Wuchen. I suspect that Wuchen had shown the jade pendant to Zhao Tian a long time ago. If that is the case, Zhao Tian is nothing to me.
What a trouble."
Xue Ji responded quickly and was about to go out, but was stopped by Shi Miyuan.
"By the way, I asked you to send a letter to Qin Shaobai, do you want to send it?"
"Back to Shi Gong, it has been sent. The person who sent the letter replied that when he went to deliver the letter, he met Princess Lan Xin and Qin Xiaowan going to pick up Qin Shaobai."
Shi Miyuan did not respond, staring at the woman in the painting.
Xue Ji hesitated for a moment and finally asked,
"Shigong, are you sure Qin Shaobai will come to the banquet? Didn't he already refuse at the government office just now?"
"If he doesn't come to the banquet, it proves that he is not Qin Shaobai. Qin Shaobai cares about Qin Xiaowan far more than that person."
"That's why you used Qin Xiaowan as bait?"
Seeing that Shi Miyuan's complexion improved, Xue Ji finally boldly asked,
"Shi Gong, do you really want him to be that person?"
Shi Miyuan didn't say anything. He picked up the pen again and wrote a big word "kill" on the painting.
Xue Ji couldn't help but gasped.
"Let's go, we can't keep our guests waiting too long."
As soon as he walked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, a spy in black came forward and said something in Shi Miyuan's ear.
A smile gradually appeared on Shi Miyuan's face.
"This Qin Xiaowan can really help me. She is sick again. Let's go and join in the fun. I may not be able to help Master Qin."
In the government office, Xiaolan sat next to Qin Xiaowan.
There were scars on Qin Xiaowan's face and hands, and Xiaolan was wiping them carefully.
"I never thought she would choose to hurt herself."
Zhao Bai stood aside, a little apologetic.
"General Zhao, don't say that." Xiaolan said without taking her eyes off Qin Xiaowan, "No one knew she would do this."
"Daddy."
Qin Xiaowan closed her eyes and called softly.
"Xiaowan, be good, we are all here." Xiaolan gently patted Qin Xiaowan's heart.
Seeing Qin Xiaowan finally falling asleep, Xiaolan stood up with confidence.
"General Zhao, you seemed to know exactly what Xiaowan would do just now."
"Yes, she has an attack every year at this time, but this year it may be more serious."
Zhao Bai looked at Xiaolan and said quietly: "The Sixth Prince said that Xiaowan was hit by Baihua Cave's Heart-Destroying Powder."
Zhao Bai said, taking out a small bottle from his arms: "This is the antidote given to me by the Sixth Prince."
Xiaolan was stunned for a moment, then laughed.
"There is absolutely no way Xiaowan can get any Heart-Destroying Powder. That Heart-Destroying Powder only works on specific people."
Seeing that Zhao Bai seemed confused, Xiaolan's face turned red first.
"The Heart-Destroying Powder is the Baihua Cave Dryad's unique poison. However, that medicine is only effective on men. Moreover, only by letting men take it at that time can the men become their slaves."
After saying that, Xiaolan's face turned as red as a round sun.
She must have felt the heat in her body, because she covered her face with her hands, then quickly stood up and ran outside.
As soon as she ran into the yard, she saw two sedans parked outside the government office. The people slowly walking out of the sedans were Shi Miyuan and Xue Ji.
"Miss Xiaolan." Shi Miyuan called, "No, Princess Lan Xin, I want to pay my respects to Princess Lan Xin."
Xiaolan wanted to pretend not to see it, but she didn't want to lose her basic courtesy, so she returned the courtesy slightly, but her voice was cold and disdainful.
"Master Prime Minister, why are you here?"
"Princess Lan Xin, I have prepared a table of wine and food at Wangxiang Tower. I wanted to invite the princess and Mr. Qin to have a few drinks and chat."
Shi Miyuan didn't pay attention to the disgust in Xiaolan's voice, and still smiled and said,
"Who would have thought that while Mr. Xue and I were waiting there, we heard that something happened again in this government office?"
Xiaolan was shocked. She didn't expect that Shi Miyuan had been informed of Qin Xiaowan's actions just now.
Shi Miyuan's eyeliner is really everywhere.
"Thank you Mr. Shi for your concern. It's nothing serious."
Xiaolan turned around and saw that the wing where Qin Xiaowan was resting had been gently closed, and Zhao Bai was striding towards it.
"Shaobai, I heard that little girl Xiaowan is sick again?"
Shi Miyuan looked anxious.
"It's okay, Xiaowan is just tired and resting in the house."
When Shi Miyuan heard this, he knew that Qin Xiaowan had been subdued.
Although he felt a little regretful, he still smiled slightly and said:
"That's good, that's good. Xue Ji, bring me a bottle of Qi-boosting pills that I take daily."
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, Xiaowan is only a child and cannot use this kind of Qi-boosting pills."
Zhao Bai refused, but still smiled.
Shi Miyuan's face was very ugly, but just for a moment, a smile appeared on his face again:
"Look at me, I'm so worried about Xiaowan that I even forgot about this matter."
Zhao Bai is still smiling:
"Shi Gong, I was just about to send someone to Wangxiang Tower to inform you that Xiaowan is not feeling well, and Xiaolan is no longer interested in going to the banquet."
He suddenly looked at Xiaolan with infinite fondness:
"She was not interested, so she asked me to stay with her through hard and soft tactics. So Mr. Shi, I can only say sorry tonight."
Shi Miyuan burst out laughing:
"Shaobai, you and Princess Lan Xin are so loving, I really envy you."
After a slight pause, Shi Miyuan's eyes suddenly lit up, "Shaobai, I have something to report to the emperor tomorrow morning, so just wait for my good news."
