Chapter 225 Master Qingtang, please make the decision for me~
The lights came on and the night gradually enveloped the entire Shangshu Mansion.
Sun Tian came in with a bowl of osmanthus steamed pastry and placed it on the table respectfully. She didn't dare to look at Qiao Wanyan who was reading a book with one hand on the soft couch. "Miss, I tried to make a bowl of osmanthus steamed pastry according to Mingyue Tower. Please taste it."
Zi Yuan walked to the table and took out the silver needle.
Sun Tian lowered her head, her heart pounding as if it was about to jump out of her throat. She seemed to hear the sound of her heartbeat in her ears.
She buried her head tightly, not daring to look up at anyone, nor at the bowl of cheese.
When Qiao Wanyan saw Ziyuan coming over with the cheese, she put down the book in her hand and stretched, "Then I'll try it. By the way, where were you today? I came back and wanted you to make some osmanthus cakes to send to the Tenth Princess, but I couldn't find you."
Sun Tian slowly raised her head and watched her scoop a spoonful of yogurt into her mouth.
"Well, this tastes much better than the one I bought from Mingyue Tower a few days ago. Your cooking skills are really good. It's not in vain that I wasted such a good opportunity to get it."
Qiao Wanyan ate the yogurt slowly and leisurely until she had finished the whole bowl. Then she handed the bowl to Ziyuan and continued to lean on the couch to read a book.
Seeing that she hadn't left yet, Zi Yuan scolded her, "What are you still standing there for? Take the bowl and go out."
Sun Tian had something on her mind and her hands were shaking uncontrollably. When she took the bowl, she lost her grip and the porcelain fell to the ground and shattered, making an extremely harsh sound.
Sun Tian immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Miss, please spare my life, please spare my life."
Qiao Wanyan frowned, and Ziyuan slapped her in the face, "You blind thing, how can you be so rash? Spare Miss An Ning, why don't you go out and accept your punishment?"
Qiao Wanyan retracted her gaze and said, "Alright, don't hurt her hands, let her go."
Zi Yuan nodded, "Yes, Miss."
Sun Tian got the order and stood up. She walked slowly to the door and then suddenly ran back and knelt in front of Qiao Wanyan, "Miss, help me, please help me!"
Qiao Wanyan raised her eyebrow slightly, "Help? What do you want me to save you from?"
Sun Tian told everything that happened at home, not daring to say a single word less.
"Please save me, young lady. The Sixth Young Master is still in my house. My brother and mother's lives are in his hands. I am really at my wit's end and that's why I'm begging you, young lady!"
After she finished speaking, she took out a small porcelain bottle from her arms, which was the Mei Gu Powder that Situ Yue gave her.
"This is what the Sixth Young Master asked me to put in the young lady's food. I don't know what it is, but I know it must not be a good thing! My family has been so kind to the young lady that I dare not do such a thing that will bring punishment from heaven. I only hope that the young lady can be kind and save my family. I beg you!"
As Sun Tian spoke, she kowtowed to Qiao Wanyan, her forehead turning purple and covered in blood.
Qiao Wanyan sat up, picked up the small porcelain bottle she had placed on the low table, looked at it, and threw it to Ziyuan, "Go check what's inside."
Zi Yuan immediately went out to see the court doctor and came back after a while.
"Miss, this is Meigu Powder, a drug that makes men and women feel aroused."
Qiao Wanyan had probably guessed it, and she was not surprised to hear Ziyuan's words. Situ Yue was such a person who could not be shown to the public. Now that he had his lower body cut off by a kind-hearted person, he must be dark and almost sick. Seeing others living happily was like swallowing a needle for him.
She raised her hand and gently touched the top of Sun Tian's head, praising him: "Good boy, you did a good job. Go to Manager Chen tomorrow morning to get two hundred-liang silver notes. This is my reward for the obedient boy."
A loyal person, she has always been very generous.
I will reward loyal people with money. A simple-minded and grateful person like Sun Tian will never betray me in my life.
Sun Tian cried out of breath, "Thank you, Miss. Thank you, Miss. But I dare not accept such a great favor from you. I only ask..."
"I will send someone to take care of your family's problems. Go home tomorrow morning and I guarantee your brother and mother will be waiting for you at home safely. These two banknotes are my reward to you. You should accept them with gratitude now. Do you understand?"
Sun Tian nodded vigorously, her vision blurred by tears.
"As long as you stay in the mansion and make sweet-scented osmanthus cake for me, I will definitely ensure that your family is safe."
Sun Tian's hands are irreplaceable. Situ Yue set his sights on Sun Tian and simply wanted to die.
Zi Yuan said: "Young lady has never been so gentle to anyone, this is your blessing. You must serve young lady well in the future, so as to repay young lady's kindness, remember?"
Ziyuan said this, but she felt a little sad in her heart.
The young lady was so gentle to herself before, and it turned out that being able to make osmanthus cake is different. The skill that the young lady likes can quickly make a name for herself in Yongning Pavilion!
Sun Tian was so touched that she wanted to go home tonight but was afraid that saying it out loud would upset the young lady, so she simply endured it and went back, looking forward to the dawn.
"Miss, what should I do?"
Zi Yuan asked Situ Yue how to do it.
Qiao Wanyan handed him the small porcelain bottle with a sweet smile. No matter how you looked at her, she looked like a spoiled brat who was not annoying at all, but rather someone that people wanted to hold in their arms and take good care of.
"He's not a man now. I feel sorry for him just by listening to him. Why don't we help him?"
Zi Yuan smiled like an auntie, "Whatever the young lady says is what I will do right away!"
Zi Yuan is very capable and she arranged everything for Situ Yue in a very short time.
A group of masked men in black broke into Sun Tian's home, knocked out Situ Yue's servants, forcibly took Situ Yue away, fed him a whole bottle of Mei Gu Powder, and threw him into a dilapidated temple in the east of the city where there were many beggars.
The next morning, dozens of beggars gathered in front of the government office for the first time in decades, surrounding the gate so tightly that no one could get in or out, making a huge commotion.
When the prefect heard the news, he did not dare to go to the government office, but went directly to the North Courtyard and asked the imperial guards to go to the government office together, for fear that this group of beggars would cause trouble and he would not be able to put down the rebellion.
When they arrived, the beggars cried miserably and asked the prefect to go to the dilapidated temple in the east of the city to catch the madman.
"My Lord, go and arrest him! That madman is stripping people's clothes indiscriminately. He wants to take the man by force!"
"Master, I am a man! That lunatic grabbed my face and kissed me. I am not clean, Master!"
One of the beggars hugged the prefect's thighs and said, "Sir, please help me! That lunatic touched my butt and said I smelled good. It's so disgusting!"
Prefect: “………”
Northern Yamen Imperial Guards: “…”
