Chapter 771, Price
"Guyu, quickly prepare some water for me, I want to take a bath!"
As soon as Daohua returned to her yard, she hurriedly gave instructions to Guyu.
"Remember, cold water."
Guyu hesitated and said, "Girl, cold showers are bad for your health."
"Get ready as I tell you, quick!"
The rice flowers impatiently interrupted the Grain Rain.
Guyu didn't dare say anything more and hurried to prepare cold water with Lixia.
Daohua walked quickly into the bathing room and quickly took off her coat. When Guyu and Lixia came in with cold water, she couldn't wait to stand in the bathtub, scooped up water with a bath spoon, and then poured the water directly over her head.
The cool water washed away some of the heat in their bodies. Daohua signaled Guyu and Lixia to quickly add cold water to the tub. When the tub was full, they submerged themselves in the cold water.
Guyu and Lixia watched worriedly, but fortunately, after a dozen seconds, the heads of the rice flowers emerged from the water.
Daohua looked at Lixia and said, "Go get some cold water." After she left, she gave Guyu a prescription and said, "Help me boil the medicine."
Guyu nodded and turned to boil the medicine.
When she was the only one left in the purification room, Daohua immersed herself in the cold water again.
Xiao Yeyang was worried about Daohua, so he didn't leave. He wanted to catch up and take a look, but at this time, Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai came back behind him.
"Is big sister okay?" Yan Wenkai asked anxiously.
Xiao Yeyang thought about Daohua's flushed cheeks and was not sure what to say. He just shook his head and said vaguely, "It should be nothing."
Upon hearing this, Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai both breathed a sigh of relief.
Yan Wenkai gritted his teeth and said, "The Jiang family is really despicable!"
These words directly insulted the Empress Dowager and the Queen.
However, Xiao Yeyang and Yan Wentao didn't react after hearing this.
Today's game was clearly aimed at Daohua. Fortunately, Daohua was smart and managed to escape. Otherwise, Jiang Wanying's fate would have been the same as Daohua's.
No, Daohua's fate will only be worse than Jiang Wanying's.
The Jiang family has the Empress Dowager and the Queen, so all officials have to give them some face. Even if Jiang Wanying and the eldest prince of Western Liao did something shameful, they dare not say anything casually.
But if the same thing happened to the rice flowers, I'm afraid all kinds of dirty water would follow.
When Xiao Yeyang thought about what happened tonight, his disgust towards the Jiang family increased. After thinking for a moment, he said, "You two came back at the right time. I have something for you to do."
Yan Wentao looked at Xiao Yeyang: "What's the matter?"
Xiao Yeyang whispered to the two of them, "The Western Liao people brought a lot of fine horses with them to the capital this time. Seeing how hotly the Second Prince, the First Prince, and Jiang Jinghui have been fighting these days, the Western Liao people must have secretly traded these fine horses with the Jiang family. The horses are being kept at the Western Suburbs Posthouse. Go get them and drive them to the paddock."
Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai were naturally happy to rob the Jiang family's horses, but Yan Wentao thought more: "The horses were lost at the post station. Will the Western Liao people take the opportunity to cause trouble?"
Xiao Yeyang sneered, "Just do it, the Western Liao people won't dare to pursue it. Don't forget, the Western Liao prince did something sensational in the palace tonight. They dare not offend the emperor's uncle at this time. If the horse is lost, they can only grit their teeth and swallow their blood."
"Also, if we move the horse to the paddock, it will belong to the emperor's uncle. Even if the Jiang family finds out, they can just pretend they know nothing."
The Jiang family would never dare to disclose their secret transactions with the Western Liao people.
Yan Wentao nodded, no longer hesitated, and hurried out of the Yan Mansion with Yan Wenkai.
The Queen Mother and the Jiang family have made such a big scene tonight. If they don't do something to retaliate, you will be really sick of them.
After the two left, Xiao Yeyang hurriedly turned around and went to Daohua's yard.
He was really worried about Daohua's condition just now. He knew that there were some banned drugs in the palace with extremely strong effects. If not used properly, it would hurt the body.
Rice Flower Pavilion.
Guyu was busy decocting medicine, Lixia was making the bed in the room, and the other maids were in their respective rooms. The whole yard was quiet.
It was late at night, and Xiao Yeyang couldn't show up openly. He searched around on the beam, then jumped down and quietly came to the outside of the bathroom.
He was too embarrassed to go in while the girl was bathing. Although he was worried, he still stood outside waiting.
However, there was no sound in the bathroom. Xiao Yeyang waited for a while and couldn't help but look inside to see what was happening. When he saw that Daohua was completely submerged in water and there was no movement for a long time, his heart tightened and he hurriedly stepped in.
When Xiao Yeyang was about one meter away from the bathtub, there was a "splash" sound and rice flowers emerged from the water.
"Puff~"
The rice flower spat out the water flowing from its head and kept shaking its head. It slowly opened its eyes until there was no more water on its face.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Xiao Yeyang standing in front of the bathtub.
Daohua's eyes widened: "Xiao Yeyang, why are you here?" Thinking that she was only wearing a bra and panties, she quickly crossed her arms and looked over angrily, "What are you looking at? Turn your face away."
Xiao Yeyang struggled to remove his gaze from Daohua's curvy figure and asked worriedly, "Are you really okay?"
After taking a cold shower for a while, Daohua's internal heat has been relieved a lot: "I'm really fine, you can leave now."
Xiao Yeyang stood still, hesitated for a moment, and said somewhat unnaturally: "Girl, it's not good to soak in cold water for a long time. If you really feel uncomfortable, I can help you."
"Who asked you for help? Get out of here right now!" Daohua quickly interrupted him.
Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua with disapproval: "The forbidden drugs in the palace are very powerful. If you endure it like this, you might hurt your body."
Daohua: "No, I've asked Guyu to boil the medicine."
"But."
Xiao Yeyang was about to say something when Guyu's voice came from outside the house: "Miss, the medicine is ready."
Daohua quickly looked at Xiao Yeyang. Xiao Yeyang glanced at the screen behind the bathtub, then quickly walked to the back and hid.
Xiao Yeyang had just hidden behind the screen when Guyu came in with medicine.
"Girl, the medicine is ready, drink it now!"
Over the years, Guyu and Lixia have also learned some pharmacology from Daohua. Daohua's condition just now was obviously similar to the symptoms of being drugged.
After realizing this, Guyu became very worried.
Daohua sat in the bathtub, reached out to take the medicine, tested the temperature, found it was not hot, then tilted her head back and drank it in big gulps.
After a while, Guyu asked, "Miss, you've already taken the medicine. Why don't you stop soaking in the cold water? You've been soaking in it for almost half an hour. Be careful not to catch a cold."
Daohua shook her head: "It's okay, I'll soak it for a while."
At this time, Lixia came in with pajamas: "Miss, the master and the mistress are back. Sister Pingtong came over just now, and I said that the young lady was asleep."
Daohua nodded and looked at Guyu: "Go tell Mom that I'm fine, I just fell asleep because I was too tired."
Guyu nodded and retreated.
Daohua watched Guyu leave, and when she turned around, she saw Lixia walking towards the screen with her pajamas. Suddenly, her heart was lifted up.
Lixia straightened the clothes on the screen and saw Daohua looking straight at her. She couldn't help but ask, "Girl, what's wrong?"
Daohua smiled stiffly and shook her head: "It's okay." As she spoke, she stretched her head to look behind the screen, with a look of doubt in her eyes.
Where is Xiao Yeyang hiding?
After thinking about it, he looked towards the roof again, and sure enough, he saw Xiao Yeyang on the beam.
"Ah owe~"
Rice flower suddenly sneezed.
Lixia quickly stepped forward and said, "Girl, why don't you stop soaking?"
Daohua felt it carefully and felt that the heat in her body was gradually dissipating, so she nodded and said, "You go and do your thing, I'll get up by myself."
Lixia nodded and quickly left the bathroom.
As soon as everyone left, Xiao Yeyang jumped down from the roof.
Daohua looked at him and said, "Go out quickly. I need to change my clothes." As she said that, she sneezed again.
Xiao Yeyang: "Then get out of the water quickly." Then he quickly left the purification room.
Daohua changed into her pajamas and went back to the bedroom, drying her hair.
Knowing that Xiao Yeyang had not left, Daohua asked Lixia to leave. Sure enough, as soon as Lixia went out, Xiao Yeyang jumped into the house through the window.
Rice Blossom glared at him.
Xiao Yeyang came close to Daohua, took the handkerchief from her hand naturally, and gently wiped her hair. He asked uncertainly, "Are you really okay?"
Daohua said "hmm".
Xiao Yeyang glanced at her face and was relieved to see that she didn't seem to be faking it. However, his expression was a little complicated, and he couldn't tell whether it was regret or something else.
"Jiang Wanying will marry into the Western Liao family, right?" Daohua suddenly asked.
Xiao Yeyang sneered: "The princess is the one who is marrying off to a peaceful marriage. She is just a county lady. At most, she is marrying off to Western Liao."
It was also because the Jiang family was too ruthless and made the matter known to everyone. Now Jiang Wanying had no other choice but to marry into Western Liao.
Daohua: "The Queen Mother will probably fight for the title of Princess for Jiang Wanying, right?"
Xiao Yeyang sneered: "That depends on whether the emperor uncle is willing to give it."
Daohua turned her head and looked over.
Xiao Yeyang smiled and tapped her forehead: "The Queen Mother and the Jiang family have so disregarded the face of the royal family and committed adultery in the harem, and the target is someone from Western Liao. This time, the Emperor's uncle will definitely be extremely angry. Not only will the Queen Mother get nothing, but the Jiang family may even be punished."
Daohua smiled and said, "If that's the case, that would be great. We have to let the high and mighty Queen Mother know that not everyone and nothing in this world can be calculated by her."
As he said this, he sneered.
"The Jiang family is truly ruthless. If their plot succeeds today, not only will my reputation be ruined, but I'll also have to marry far away to Western Liao. The Yan family will also lose their foothold in the capital. They really want to eradicate the Yan family completely."
Hearing the fear in Daohua's tone, Xiao Yeyang put down the handkerchief, sat down beside her, looked into her eyes and said, "Believe me, I will never let this happen again in the future."
Daohua smiled at Xiao Yeyang and said, "I believe you, but there's always a thief who steals for a thousand days, but there's no such thing as a thief who can't be on guard against thieves for a thousand days. Don't worry, I'm not made of paper. The Queen Mother and the Jiang family are probably having a headache because of me."
Xiao Yeyang snorted coldly, "They are going to have a headache this time." Even though the Jiang family had a queen mother and a queen, the Jiang family's reputation was ruined once the scandal between Jiang Wanying and Yelu Kanda came to light.
Daohua: "Help me dry my hair, then go back quickly."
Xiao Yeyang nodded: "Yeah."
Seeing that he was so obedient this time, Daohua looked at him in surprise.
Seeing this, Xiao Yeyang smiled and said, "Why, do you want me to stay?"
Daohua glanced at him sideways and turned away.
Xiao Yeyang smiled and wiped his hair while saying, "I have to go into the palace and watch. The Queen Mother and the Jiang family dared to deal with you so brazenly. They must pay a higher price."
