Chapter 543 Sansucai
At night, at the foot of Guangping Mountain, the silver moonlight shone on the earth, as if covered with white frost.
Under an adult's huge camphor tree, there were several toads croaking.
Soon, a woman came over in the dark night tremblingly.
The woman is bloated and has a fat face. She is leaning on a slender wooden stick in her hand. She tests the road under her feet, and carefully comes to the camphor tree and whispers,
"Sir, I'm here!"
As the woman finished speaking, the rustling sound of leaves rubbing out, and a person jumped out from behind the camphor tree.
This man was the middle-aged man who had conspired with a young man to poison Meng Zhao. At this time, he changed his respectfulness in front of the young man, with a fierce face, his eyes were like snakes, and he looked at the fat woman coldly, saying,
"This time there is a new task. You work in the kitchen in Mengjiazhuang. No matter what method you use, put this bottle of medicine into Meng Zhao's diet. Be sure to ensure that he takes this medicine."
As he said that, he had thrown the snow-white porcelain bottle that the young man gave him to the woman, with an extremely firm attitude.
When the woman heard this, she was so scared that she was so scared that she knelt on the ground with a thud and begged for mercy repeatedly.
"My mercy, mercy, mercy. If a young woman does such a thing assassinating the master's family and is found out, she will lose her head. Thinking of the young woman's efforts to do her best to do things for her, you can spare me this time!"
Because the woman had a handle in the middle-aged man's hands, she had to become a chess piece that he was ambushing in the farm and did something that harmed the interests of the manor. But she was not stupid. She knew that she was just a small fight before, and even if she was discovered, it was nothing. At most, she was expelled without any hindrance to her life.
However, it is different to poison Meng Zhao. This will kill people. If it is found out that she did it, let alone her husband and children, they will also be implicated. Therefore, women are so afraid.
Although there are only some women in the kitchen who have little knowledge, women are best gossip and are very comfortable to find out the news. They have long been touching Meng Zhao's details and know that this is a young man from a noble family. He has a noble life and someone will definitely be buried with him if something happens.
The man didn't agree, but he knew he should not force him too much, so he comforted him
"Don't worry, I didn't let you poison him. What's in it is not poison, but a drug that temporarily makes people sleepy and tired. Don't show flaws when you feel guilty. No one knows that it was your move.
And if this is done, I will not only promote your son to be his subordinates’ manager, but also give you five hundred taels of silver. With these five hundred taels, your son’s marriage will also be settled. Think about it clearly.”
The woman was still a little hesitant. Although she had no knowledge and was stupid, she was afraid of the power of the Meng family.
Middle-aged people were half intimidation and half inducement. It took her half a day to persuade her to respond to this matter.
When the woman left, a man holding a steel knife and wearing a black uniform walked out of the darkness beside the middle-aged manor, looking at his outfit, it turned out to be the guards of the Meng Family Manor.
"This woman is unreliable. When things are done, you kill her and leave no traces.
After leaving Mengjia Manor, I will prepare a boat for you, let you leave Lingwu City by boat, wait for the limelight to pass, and come back. At that time, it will be a new world, and I will use it for you again."
The man holding the knife had no hesitation or fear in his eyes, but was filled with fiery and scorching ambitions.
“Yes, my subordinates will do this beautifully.
But, sir, Meng Zhao attaches great importance to his own safety. He will send someone to check whether it is poisonous at every meal, and he is afraid it is not so good."
Middle-aged smiled faintly,
"Don't worry, this medicine was handed over to me from above. It is not only colorless and odorless, but also has extremely secretive properties. The method of using silver needles to measure poison will not have any results."
The man holding the knife nodded thoughtfully, with a smile on his face...
The next morning, after Meng Zhao woke up, under the service of Han Lu and Zhuer, he washed up, dressed neatly, and practiced fist and foot skills for a while before he came to the table to have a meal.
The breakfast on the table is cooked in the kitchen according to Meng Zhao's preferences, especially the Sanve Cake, which is a local specialty snack in Lingwu City. It is crispy and mellow and has a fragrant aroma on the teeth. It has almost been served in the past few days.
Meng Zhao sat at the table, beside him was Lu Le reporting to him some affairs in the village in recent days and the adjustments of some industries under his name. He was holding a piece of cut Sansu cake with chopsticks. Just as he was about to enter the mouth, suddenly, Xiaojiu, the young Jiao who was originally wrapped around his waist, suddenly shot out, and the dragon head expanded, swallowing the Sansu cake in Meng Zhao's chopsticks in one bite, and even biting off the bamboo chopsticks.
This sudden scene was not only because Lu Le was unprepared, but even Meng Zhao showed a look of astonishment on his face. He did not blame Xiaojiu, but just patted its dragon head with a doting spoiled look and said helplessly,
"You guy, you eat ferocious beasts, flesh and blood, and swallow the spirit pills and ore so hard. You don't eat anything delicious. Why did you change the taste today?"
Xiao Jiu is the body of a dragon. He acts instinct and the things he swallows in daily life are mainly provided with various foods for its body to develop and grow, such as ferocious beasts containing the essence of flesh and blood, the essence of elixirs of grass and trees, and various precious ores used to breathe gold, enhance the power of the internal organs and scale defense.
In the past, Meng Zhao also fed Xiaojiu very delicious food, but the young dragon disliked the food being tasteless and could not enhance its blood and energy. He looked down upon it, but today it showed a bit of abnormality.
Lu Le was also happy to see it. Of course, he was a little envious. There were probably not many people in the world who could keep such a ferocious beast like a dragon as a pet, and there were even only Meng Zhao.
"Young Master, has Xiaojiu grown too fast recently? The amount he had eaten before was somewhat keeping up with the energy consumption in his body?"
Meng Zhao shook his head,
"It probably won't be. It was still good yesterday. Maybe it was attracted by the taste of Sansucai!"
As he said that, Meng Zhao changed a pair of chopsticks, picked up a piece of Sansu cake, and wanted to feed Xiaojiu. He had already handed the pastry to his mouth, but the young dragon just chirped and raised his head and ignored it.
"this?"
Meng Zhao was a little hesitant, thought for a while, and put the three Su cakes into his mouth. Sure enough, the young Jiao Xiaojiu rushed to swallow the pastry into his belly again, which was a completely different change from his previous disdain.
For a moment, Lu Le was confused, while Meng Zhao's expression suddenly became gloomy. He seemed to think of something and began to test the breakfast on the table one by one.
The result is that Xiaojiu is not interested in all the meals. Only when he wants to eat Sanvegetarian cakes, Xiaojiu will take the initiative to grab food, or use it as a description to prevent him from eating, which is more appropriate.
"Master, are you?"
