Chapter 250 Kuizhou
When you get close and smell it, you can smell a very strong pungent smell.
The doctor frowned immediately: "The reason why the water droplets are clean is because the dirty things have been soaked in this paper for a long time, and the water droplets only scraped the surface and did not penetrate deep into the inside, so the silver needle can't detect it!"
"But when I got closer and smelled it just now, the smell was too strong. I'm afraid it's not just some simple poison!"
Even though what the imperial physician said was not 100% certain, it was about 80% likely!
Feng Yi couldn't help but feel a little scared. Among her guards, no one was well versed in poisons. If she fell into the trap of that villain, wouldn't it be a loss without gain?
How long has it been since I last did anything for His Majesty? Have you let your guard down?
Duhuo asked, "Do you know what kind of poison this is? I'll let you take it back and study it carefully. It would be best if you could find out what kind of poison it is. It would be even better if you could also develop an antidote!"
The imperial physician nodded, put the note directly into a porcelain bottle, and left.
Feng Yi smiled bitterly and said, "If it weren't for you, I would have fallen flat on my face!"
Duhuo looked towards the door. "I just saw that the color of the note was a little different. It seemed to be darker. Besides that, if I got a little closer, I could smell an unpleasant smell."
This was the habit of vigilance that he had developed over the years by Yun Zhuan's side. After a long while, Duhuo gently patted Feng Yi's shoulder:
"Only by taking good care of yourself can you continue to serve His Majesty!"
Since Wanqi Rang was the regent of Nanzhao and other tribes provided support, nothing serious happened!
Moreover, the ministers did not know that their real Majesty had already left!
Wanqi Ruqing was lying in the outer chamber of Yun Ju'an's sleeping palace, pretending to be Yun Ju'an.
Day after day, she also got used to complaining to Duhuo:
"Before, you asked me to review the memorials, but now you just pass the responsibility on to me!"
Duhuo raised his eyebrows lightly: "You are a daughter of a noble family after all. Whatever you do is the blessing bestowed upon you by His Majesty."
"Come, this blessing is for you!" Wanqi Ruqing was about to jump up from the bed, but was easily pushed down by Duhuo:
"Okay, what do you want to eat? I'll tell the kitchen to make it for you. The treatment you are enjoying now is what His Majesty used to enjoy!"
No matter how much she enjoyed herself, Wanqi Ruqing still felt uncomfortable. Although the treatment at home was not as good as in the palace, at least she was free!
Wanqi Rang was busy enough handling government affairs every day and had no time to listen to Wanqi Ruqing's requests. She might even ask Wanqi Ruqing to review memorials with her. If that was the case, Wanqi Ruqing might as well just lie in bed!
Thinking of this, Wanqi Ruqing lost his temper:
"I want to eat eight-treasure duck, fried chicken, sweet and sour pork ribs, and a soup!"
"What kind of soup do you want?" Duhuo asked carefully.
Wanqi Ruqing lay back down: "Any soup is fine, as long as it tastes good!"
Duhuo listened to the instructions and went down to prepare...
Northern Chu border.
Yun Ju'an and his group acted quickly. Su Yu'an had already gone there to wait. She had never refused Yun Ju'an before, so Yun Ju'an trusted her best friend very much.
After all, in this world, only those who truly like you and love you will not betray you!
Su Yu'an's abilities are outstanding and he has won the heart of Yun Ju'an!
The people of Northern Chu were tough and sturdy. All the subjects were tall and strong. Even the women were half a head taller than Yun Ju'an. This made Yun Ju'an sigh:
"With people like this, how can we fight a war? No wonder they rarely lose!"
Judging from their physique, the people from Northern Chu have already won more than half of the battle, and the probability of winning has greatly increased. They may even be able to defeat a larger enemy with a smaller one without any effort!
The person following him is Changchun:
"My Majesty!"
Yun Zhu put down the curtain and came back to his senses: "What's the matter?"
"Why don't you take a rest here and then change to a carriage? It's not the ten thousand dollars that you have to worry about. Besides, you may not be able to bear the fatigue of the journey!" Changchun's suggestion was very pertinent.
The main reason was that too many people were watching Yun Ju'an, which made it difficult for the group to act. Plus, she had such a pretty face that she had to wear a veil when she went out!
Changing to a carriage can also ensure Yun Zhuan's safety.
Yun Zhuan nodded without any dispute:
"Since Duhuo is not with me, you will be fully responsible!"
Changchun immediately said: "I will definitely fulfill my mission and take good care of the young lady!"
The group stopped at a small tavern on the border, which was a place called Kuizhou.
Kuizhou is a relatively large area, but it is remote and desolate, so there are few new things happening there, except for the merchants and all kinds of people coming and going every day!
But this is not uncommon anymore!
Yun Juan put on the veil and got off the carriage!
The waiter quickly came over and asked, "Dear guests, would you like to stop by for a meal or stay the night?"
"Three rooms upstairs." Yun Zhuan said calmly, "Just send the food upstairs!"
Changchun immediately handed the silver over. The waiter smiled and said:
"Sir, please follow me!"
The tavern was indeed small, with only five rooms on the upper floor, and Yun Zhuan had booked three of them.
"Is the shopkeeper here? The third room is upstairs!" The source of the voice was a man with a deep and mellow voice. He maintained a good upbringing and the aura of a superior.
"I'm sorry, sir, this lady came first and has booked three upper rooms. Only two are left!" The shopkeeper wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling a little nervous.
As soon as the store opened, it opened for business. This girl is like a real god of wealth!
The man frowned immediately and looked in the direction of the shopkeeper. It was indeed a woman wearing a veil and with an elegant temperament.
Northern Chu is a place where men are respected. No matter how pretty a woman is, she cannot escape the fate of getting married and raising children.
However, he still calmly instructed the people around him:
"Does any other store have three more rooms?"
The attendant behind him said respectfully, "No, sir, there are only two upper rooms left here!"
Yun Ju'an was being led by the waiter and was drinking tea with an elegant posture. The waiter next to him was stunned for a moment.
The extremely handsome man walked towards me with a gentle demeanor:
"I don't know why this young lady, who only has a maid with her, wants three upper rooms. Why not give us one? I'm willing to pay three times the price!"
Yun Ju'an raised his eyes and said, "Three times the price, are you serious, sir?"
"How much does a room here cost?"
The shopkeeper said quickly: "Seven taels of silver. We are a small business..."
"Three times the price is only twenty-one taels of silver!" Yun Ju'an propped up his chin, "But what should I do if I don't need these twenty taels of silver?"
"Um?"
