Chapter 477 Du Ye was drugged
"We can escape anywhere. If we don't, Song Yu will come back and we'll be dead."
Du Zhihuan shook her head. "Living on the run? The Du and Jiang families will find us wherever we flee. I'm facing two options: either Song Yu slashing my face to death, or exile. Neither is a good option, so I can only take a gamble."
Yun Que: "What do you want to bet on?"
Du Zhihuan handed Yun Que the obedient pills she had just made. "This is the obedient pill Yang Xu mentioned. I made it today according to his recipe. I just asked Yang Xu about it. Although the pills don't look good, they're effective."
Yun Que carefully sniffed the green pill in front of him, which was neither square nor round. "Who is it for?"
"Let each family member eat one. As long as they eat it, they will listen to me the first time they hear my voice and do what I say."
Yun Que was surprised. She picked it up and sniffed it again. "Miss, are you trying to convince everyone that you have no intention of persecuting Song Yu?"
"That's right, this is what Yang Xu said on the day he was arrested. He was able to put the Gu on Song Mingzhu because he had Wu Han give her this pill in advance. Yang Xu also said that the Obedient Pill was not perfect at the beginning. If you take it and don't follow orders, you will become stupid. A normal person can tell there is something wrong with this person at first glance. He improved the Obedient Pill during his research on the Illusion Face Gu and had it tested on the third brother. After taking it, the effect of the pill took effect and the third brother would become stupid. When you give orders, he will only follow them. He will not show the stupid look at the beginning, but his eyes are expressionless, and you can't tell unless you look closely. If Song Mingzhu had taken the improved pill at that time, the situation today would not be like this."
Yun Que couldn't help but feel a little worried. "Song Yu won't believe it. What if she finds out?"
"It's a gamble! If I lose, I die. If I win, I'll still be the daughter of the Du family. Song Yu may never return to the Du family."
Yun Que: "The premise for making someone obey is just the voice, not the face?"
"Voice! I confirmed with Yang Xu. They all saw the effects of the "Yan Ting Zong Wan" pill today. Dad, Mom, and Grandma believed what Yang Xu said that day. Giving them this pill will deepen that trust."
"Then let's feed them now. Song Yu might be in town soon. How are we going to get them to eat such a big pill? And how can we get them to eat it all at once without Bai Lan and the others noticing? Or maybe give them one too. I've brought some knockout pills."
"There aren't many left, not enough for them. Besides, if they eat them, they'll all be on my side. Won't Song Yu get suspicious?"
"Oh, that's right."
Du Zhihuan glanced at the sky and said, "Grandma wants some soothing soup. I'll bring it over myself."
The one with the most say in this house is grandma, so we have to make her believe it first.
"...As for my parents and brothers wanting to get close to my face, I took the initiative to approach them, and they were overjoyed. Okay, after waking them up, you can go and see where my beauty is hidden."
"good."
Yunque came out of the pharmacy and first gave the antidote to Bailan in the outer room, then went to the yard to give the antidote to Chunhua and Nuanyu, and finally went to the main house to give the antidote to Ningshuang and Furong, and then went to Yilan Fanghua.
"Lan'er! Lan'er!"
Bai Lan climbed up from the table, rubbed her head, and said to herself: How did I fall asleep?
Seeing that no one came in, Du Zhihuan called out again, "Lan'er!"
Bai Lan hurried into the alchemy room, "Miss."
"Let's go, it's time to make some calming soup for grandma. Oh, please go to the small courtyard later. The Marquis's face hasn't been looking good these past two days, and I'm itching to take her pulse. I hope she doesn't fall ill. The huge Du Mansion still needs her to take care of it."
Bai Lan raised an eyebrow: "Miss, do you want to ease the relationship with the Marquis and his wife?"
"Impossible! She's coming to pay her respects to Grandma in the next two days. I don't want her to look so sad and offend Grandma."
Bai Lan: ... "That's not necessary. If we can ease the situation, we should."
“See how they perform.”
Du Zhihuan brought the calming soup into Du Ye's bedroom and sent everyone out.
"Grandma, it's time to drink the tranquilizing soup. However, I found a more effective recipe at the pharmacy today. I just drank half a bowl in the kitchen and I'm feeling a little sleepy now."
"Is it so effective?" Du Ye quickly took it.
Du Zhihuan pursed her lips and said with a smile, "Grandma, you'll know after you drink it."
Du Ye didn't think much about it, she blew on it and took a sip, "Not bad, it doesn't taste that bitter."
"Yes, I put two candied dates in it."
Du Ye drank the calming soup. Du Zhihuan took it, put the bowl aside, and helped her lie down on the bed.
When she stood up to leave, Du Ye grabbed her and said, "Sit with grandma for a while."
Du Zhihuan stared at her expression without saying a word, nodded, and sat down on the edge of the bed.
"Even if you don't marry Prince Xiao now, you will have to get married after the mourning period is over. Now you should consider looking for other families. In a few days, your mother will organize the portraits of all the good men in the capital and show them to you. If you like any of them, Grandmother will..."
Du Ye suddenly closed her mouth and lowered her eyes.
Du Zhihuan quickly came to the window and saw Aunt Qiao talking to Bai Lan in the corridor across the street. She turned to the bedside and whispered in her natural voice, "Grandma, Huanhuan never intended to harm my sister. It was Yang Xu who drugged me and controlled me. Grandma, Huanhuan never intended to harm my sister. You have to believe in Huanhuan."
After Du Zhihuan finished speaking, she looked at Du Ye with a nervous expression.
Du Ye looked up at her in confusion, "Where were we talking about just now?"
What's going on?
Didn’t grandma remember?
Still no effect?
Du Zhihuan imitated Song Yu's voice again, "Grandma said she'd find me a new family, but it's too early. We need to wait... somehow, we have to deal with Du Zhihuan, who's bent on murdering me."
Du Ye's eyes changed color, and her expression was neither cold nor warm. "Hanhuan never intended to harm you. It was Yang Xu who drugged her and controlled her."
Du Zhihuan was delighted. She had thought the pills had no effect. "Grandma, do you really believe what Yang Xu said? That was just Yang Xu's excuse for her!"
"Sister Yu, don't get excited." Du Ye hurriedly tried to soothe her, but her eyes remained lukewarm. "Didn't I give your third brother that obedient pill yesterday? He completely obeyed and even went so far as to hit your father. You saw it all. Huanhuan won't harm you."
"Hmph! Grandma, just believe that Du Zhihuan won't come to harm me!" Du Zhihuan stood up and left angrily.
Aunt Qiao returned to the room and said, "Old Madam, it's getting late, why don't you go to bed?"
Du Ye looked at Madam Qiao's cloudy eyes, which were tinged with doubt. "When did Sister Yu leave?"
Aunt Qiao was surprised: "The young lady just left. She looked unhappy. What did you say to her?"
"I didn't say anything, I just said Huanhuan wouldn't come to harm her."
Aunt Qiao was a little surprised. "Yesterday, you saw the power of that pill, and you didn't believe that the second young lady wouldn't harm the eldest young lady. How come you believe it now?"
[Yang Xu controlled me. Grandmother, you have to trust Huanhuan.]
Du Zhihuan's words echoed in her mind. Du Ye said firmly, "Huanhuan wouldn't come to harm Sister Yu. It was Yang Xu who manipulated her. Otherwise, Sister Yu would have been killed in Luming Mountain long ago."
Aunt Qiao: ...
Why is the old lady so convinced?
"Madam, you didn't take the obedient pill, did you?"
Du Ye frowned: "Do you think I've taken medicine?"
"picture!"
"Don't let your imagination run wild. Zhixu ate the last one."
After leaving Chaohui Courtyard, Du Zhihuan went to the small villa, followed the same method and mixed the soup into tea and let the family of three drink it.
Du Zhihuan went to look for Du Da and Du Er again.
Du Zhihuan successfully administered the medicine to Du Zhixu.
But Du Zhiyi accompanied Gong Lingyu to the night market on the street and no one knew when they would be back, so Du Zhihuan had to give up.
It doesn’t matter if my elder brother and sister-in-law don’t believe it.
