Chapter 335 Wei Chengyi's Plan
"Oh? So magical?"
Looking at the water bag and then at the potion in her hand, Yue Ruyan's brows raised slightly. It would be a lie to say that she was not shocked, but she had already been shocked on New Year's Eve, and now she was at most surprised.
"Um."
Shen Xiangwan nodded with a smile and leaned back in his chair: "Anyone can take the marrow washing fluid. The primary gene medicine is best used after the age of eighteen. Everyone in the family has used it except Ling'er."
Marrow washing fluid was the name she gave to the water in the spiritual well, and she would use this name whenever she spoke to others.
"Ling'er should feel wronged."
Upon hearing this, Yue Ruyan curled her lips and chuckled. The little girl was lively, delicate and pretty. It would be strange if she didn't feel aggrieved.
"Isn't it?"
Raising an eyebrow, Shen Xiangwan pretended to be helpless. After the little girl knew that Ruyan had also activated her superpowers, she would probably complain to her again.
"hehe···"
Yue Ruyan couldn't help but laugh out loud. After a long pause, she said seriously, "Drink the marrow cleansing fluid directly? How should this potion be used?"
As she spoke, Yue Ruyan raised the potion and shook it.
Shen Xiangwan didn't answer immediately, but turned his head and said, "Yuanyue, ask the servants to send a few buckets of hot water to Ruyan's room."
"yes."
Yuan Yue nodded and retreated. Shen Xiangwan then turned to Yue Ruyan and said, "After taking the marrow cleansing solution, your body will excrete a lot of dirt. It's best to soak in a bathtub. As for the medicine, I will inject it for you myself later."
"good."
Even though she was confused, Yue Ruyan didn't continue to talk. Anyway, she would know everything she should and shouldn't know later.
After the hot water was delivered to the room, Yue Ruyan got up and left with the water bag. When she came out of the room, her already charming appearance and figure became even more enchanting, which made Shen Xiangwan marvel at her. After teasing her for a while, he went back to the room with her to help her activate her superpowers. She was lucky too, and she activated the wood-type superpower that could be used for both offense and defense, and also had a certain healing ability.
After letting Yue Ruyan adapt to her special abilities, Shen Xiangwan thought about it and went to the study. Although Wei Jingyi and Wei Jinghan had already set up their own households and were no longer considered branches of their family, their attitudes would not affect the outcome, but they might still cause them some trouble. They were already accelerating the consolidation of the remaining political power in Chenzhou, and at this time, there must be no internal chaos.
"Where are Uncle Yi and the others?"
Shen Xiangwan pushed the door open and walked in, only to see Wei Chengyi alone. Wei Jingyi and Wei Jinghan, who should have been in the study, were nowhere to be seen.
"Already left."
Raising his head and smiling slightly, Wei Chengyi extended his hand to her. Shen Xiangwan raised an eyebrow and walked over to sit next to him: "What did they say?"
"What else can I say?"
Shaking his head, Wei Chengyi said calmly, "Having experienced the palace's heyday and then its fall, they've long since resigned themselves to their fate. They simply wish to live a peaceful life and no longer wish to return to the imperial city and restore its former glory. However, I told them the true cause of death of their grandfather, father, and brothers, and they were filled with indignation, promising to stand with us through thick and thin."
From the beginning to the end, he never thought of relying on them. If they were afraid of being implicated, he would have people use hypnosis to seal their memories, or even directly cut off their connection, turning them into real strangers, and then send them to another place. Don't blame him for being too cruel, this is also for their own good. Only in this way can they start over and don't have to live in fear of being discovered.
However, it seemed that he was overthinking it. They were indeed hesitant at the beginning, but after knowing the real cause of death of their grandfather, father and brother, they made the decision immediately.
"Um."
Nodding, Shen Xiangwan quietly felt relieved. She didn't want to cause any trouble.
"Don't worry, it's okay."
Turning his chair to face her, Wei Chengyi smiled softly and dotingly, "I'm going on a long trip with my master tomorrow. Don't run around at home. If you need anything, go find Qingying. He's staying home this time."
"Traveling far?"
Shen Xiangwan couldn't help but frown. Didn't they just come back? And their recent focus should be on consolidating the remaining political power in Chenzhou, training the army, and improving people's livelihood. The capital city could contact him at any time, so why would he still go out?
"Um."
Lowering his eyes, Wei Chengyi took her hand and nonchalantly played with it. "The Dragon Shadow Guards are too annoying. Although we can't destroy them, we can weaken their prestige and make them dare not act so recklessly again. In addition, the war in Binzhou and other places is not going well. The emperor will issue an order next month to General Wanqishan of the Northern Front to lead the troops to quell the rebellion. If nothing unexpected happens, he will be able to put down the rebellion in at most six months. To prevent the emperor from pointing the finger at us later, we must prolong his time to quell the rebellion as much as possible so that the court will be too busy to take care of us."
What Wei Chengyi didn't say was that the news of their great victory over the Western Hu people should have been reported back to the imperial city. Helping the rebels was also to find something for the emperor to do so that he wouldn't just focus on them. If time permitted, he also wanted to go to the Eastern Territory this time to help Chu Liang control the Eastern Territory army as much as possible. He didn't ask them to help him, but only hoped that they could firmly guard the Eastern Territory and not give the Qiang State any chance to invade, so as to prevent the people of the Eastern Territory from suffering.
"Okay, is there anything I can help you with?"
After a moment's hesitation, Shen Xiangwan nodded in agreement with his decision. She had long been fed up with the Dragon Shadow Guards, and it was time to put a damper on their arrogance. This way, the Dog Emperor would probably be a little more obedient, and they could temporarily concentrate on developing Chenzhou and turning it into their strongest backing.
"Please prepare more cartilage powder and antidote. They are very useful."
All along, the Dragon Shadow Guards have been like bugs in the gutter, hiding in the dark and waiting for an opportunity to strike. Naturally, he would not talk about any martial ethics with them. What he always wants is the result. The process is not important!
"good."
Shen Xiangwan agreed without a second thought, not believing Wei Chengyi's actions were inappropriate. Why resort to force when poison could solve the problem? Were the Dragon Shadow Guards worthy enough?
"How many people are you planning to bring this time?"
Picking up the teacup and taking a few sips, Shen Xiangwan asked casually.
"Since Master is here, there's no need to bring so many people. Just Yuan Shu and two guards."
They were unable to destroy the Dragon Shadow Guards, they only wanted to hunt down the masters among them who had already appeared in the Imperial City. Having too many people would not be a good thing.
"Um."
Perhaps guessing his thoughts, Shen Xiangwan didn't hesitate and said, "After you finish your business, go directly into the space. I will pick you up when the time comes. Don't rush on your way like a fool."
It seemed like a simple reminder, but in reality, it was laced with unmistakable concern. The Imperial City was the Dog Emperor's territory. How could anyone who hunted him in his territory escape so easily? Even if they left the Imperial City, the Dog Emperor would surely have people hunt them down along the way. She didn't want to see him return in such a miserable state.
"good."
With a smile on his lips, Wei Chengyi obeyed obediently, looking at her with eyes full of tenderness.
