Chapter 30 Who is setting the trap(1/2)
"I just saw a Central Plains man coming here, so I followed him all the way. Unexpectedly, he was stopped and harassed by your guards, and he was knocked to the ground. These guards pressed on me together, and you saw it with your own eyes. If
If you hadn't come out in time, I don't think they would have stopped until they beat me to death." After hearing what Yang Qingyuan said, the guards seemed to feel that he was really reckless, and they were all wondering why they had surrounded him at that time.
Just knock him to the ground?
Shangdu Khan looked angrily at the guards he had brought with him, each one with his head hanging down. They all looked like they had done something wrong before he had even been held accountable. He was even more angry in his heart, angry at them for not complaining about their stupidity.
"You said that our guards pushed you to the ground alone, but I see that there is only a little dust on your body now, and your hair is not messy. Look at them again, their clothes are disheveled and their appearance is messy. This is them.
Are eight of you bullying one of you?" Prince Bayin on the side continued to argue without being humble or arrogant.
The wrinkles at the corners of Shangdu Khan's eyes rose slightly, and he looked at Yang Qingyuan with a hint of pride. Yang Qingyuan patted the dust on himself and said disdainfully: "You saw me being pushed to the ground by them. As for how they did it like this
Embarrassing, they should ask themselves this."
"Haha, okay, I think you have nothing to lose, so let's leave it as it is. I'll have someone take you back to rest, come here!" Yang Qingyuan was obviously mocking Huang Bei's guard for his poor martial arts, and Shangdu Khan didn't even think about it.
After too much entanglement, he waved his hand and said.
"Wait a minute, Shangdu Khan. Based on your friendship with my father, I should respectfully call you Uncle Shangdu. My nephew came here for the first time and wanted to visit you today. He left by mistake this morning.
When you come in and get beaten up by your guards, shouldn't you make the decision for your nephew?" Yang Qingyuan interrupted Shangdu Khan and saluted with both hands, neither humble nor overbearing.
"Oh? How do you want me to make the decision? Should I beat these people up or leave it to you? Your father is in charge of criminal law in Dawei. If it were your father, how should I make the decision?" Shangdu Khan saw that although this man was young,
, but he was not surprised when things happened, and he became interested in seeing how much his "best friend"'s son weighed.
"In Dawei, the behavior of these eight people was lawless, domineering, and contemptuous of the royal power. The first was to insult foreign envoys and commit the crime of insult. The lighter was to have thirty big boards beaten, and the worst was to behead them as a warning to others; second,
If you form a gang and punish yourself privately, without investigation or punishment, you are guilty of dereliction of duty, and you must be dismissed immediately and investigated and dealt with strictly." Yang Qingyuan held his head high and his chest high, his eyes like torches.
Shangdu Khan's face had darkened, and his dim eyes revealed a murderous aura, but he still spoke in a low and hoarse voice, unhurriedly, "So, if these eight people follow Dawei's law, they will all be dragged out and chopped.
?”
As soon as Shangdu Khan finished speaking, the guards who didn't know what was going on panicked and all knelt on the ground begging for mercy: "Khan, please spare your life. We didn't mean to contradict him. We didn't know that he was Master Yang's son. We won't do it again next time."
I don’t dare anymore!”
"What are you arguing about?" General Wei Xu shouted loudly, frightening the guards who were begging for mercy so much that they shut up quickly. Wei Xu looked at Yang Qingyuan with his eyes raised like an eagle, as if staring at prey.
Bursts of cold light.
"Hurry up and ask you to kneel down? Don't even look at where this is? This is not Dawei, and it is not the people of Dawei who have the final say on how to punish it!" Prince Bayin was furious, walked to the guard, and angrily
He kicked and shouted with his feet.
"Young Master Yang is just using the Dawei Law as an example. Did my father say that I will punish you? Look, I'm scaring you. Why don't you get up quickly!" Princess Nata said, holding Shangdu Khan's hand.
The guards looked at Shangdu Khan cautiously, and the atmosphere became even colder - this was exactly the effect Yang Qingyuan wanted. The longer he was held back by Shangdu Khan, the better chance Yunchuan would get of the century-old snow lotus.
The bigger it gets.
——————————————————————————
At this time, Yunchuan had already sneaked into the Khan's yurt. Following Mingcheng's instructions, he actually found a small box with a snow lotus carved on it next to the Khan's pillow. This small box was the same as the small box Shengze gave to her.
The style is similar. When you open the box, you can feel a chill, but there is no snow lotus or petals in this box, only about a dozen white pills. The pills are crystal clear and exude the fragrance of snow lotus.
Yunchuan turned over Shangdu Khan's pillow again, and there was nothing else except this small box. "Have they made the century-old snow lotus into pills?" Yunchuan thought in confusion. Yunchuan looked at the pills in the box, and was thinking.
He hesitated to take a few pills, but didn't notice Mingcheng who quietly opened the curtain and walked in.
"If you are seriously poisoned, just take one pill in the first five days; two pills in five to seven days. If you are old or seriously ill and want to live longer, take three pills." Mingcheng stood at the door of the yurt and said softly.
Yunchuan was startled, looked behind Mingcheng, and breathed a sigh of relief. She took one, put it in her small box, thought about it, and took another one. "Sister Mingcheng, I believe you.
!" Yun Chuan said gratefully.
Mingcheng looked at the box in Yunchuan's hand and asked in surprise: "Why do you have this box? Shengze was poisoned?"
Yunchuan put Shangdu Khan's box back to its original place, and a big stone finally fell to the ground in his heart, and he said easily: "Sheng Zefu has a great destiny, don't worry, he is fine. But why do you think this is the relationship between Sheng Zefu and this person?"
What does the box have to do with it?"
"Humph, you just like to make secrets. Whether he has something wrong with me has nothing to do with it! You took two pills just to detoxify. Aren't there just a few people around you who are worth taking such a risk?" Mingcheng came over and picked up Shang.
Du Khan checked the box and said.
"Oh~ Thank you sister Mingcheng." Yunchuan didn't know what Yang Qingyuan's situation was outside, so he thought he should get out quickly. But Mingcheng stopped him: "Why, are you leaving now?"
Yun Chuan looked at Mingcheng warily: "That's not it?"
"You and I broke off our relationship a year ago. Why do you think I told you the secret of the century-old snow lotus?" Mingcheng stared at Yunchuan and threatened.
"Then what do you want?" Yun Chuan asked puzzledly.
"What I'm thinking is very simple, 'Huangbei century-old snow lotus has been taken and eaten by myself' - help me spread the word about this tonight!" Mingcheng pointed to the small box and said.
"Sister Mingcheng, what exactly do you want to do?" Yunchuan looked at Mingcheng in confusion.
"You don't need to worry about the reason, but I know you will do it because you don't know how to take this pill yet?" Mingcheng glanced lightly, while Yunchuan's face turned from confusion to anger. Before Yunchuan could fight back, Mingcheng continued
Said, "I remind you, if you don't know this method, the pills in your hands will be useless! However, if you spread any bad news about me, I will not tell you how to take it."
Yunchuan sighed. Sure enough, there was really no friendship left between her and Mingcheng. "Then what if I told you that it was Shengze who wanted these pills?" Yunchuan's eyes flickered, looking at Mingcheng expectantly, hoping.
You can also see some tenderness in Mingcheng's eyes.
Mingcheng was stunned for a moment, looked at Yun Chuan expressionlessly, and said with a smile: "Then you should do as I said, don't you think so?"
Yunchuan glanced at Mingcheng angrily. He was still thinking of getting lucky, but he didn't expect that Mingcheng's only value was to use and be used. Mingcheng seemed to have no weakness at all. Even Shengze couldn't arouse her at all.
Yun Chuan couldn't help but suspect that from looking for a century-old snow lotus, to threatening with pearl earrings, and now getting the snow lotus, he seemed to have stepped into Mingcheng's trap step by step.
"By the way, your friend's trick to hold them back is, well, not very clever. If you don't want him to get into trouble, you'd better think of a way to make up for the missing two." Mingcheng sat on the other side of the case.
He drank tea leisurely and said to Yun Chuan who was about to lift the curtain.
"Can't you say you took two pills yourself?" Yunchuan said angrily.
"Of course not." Mingcheng put down his teacup and replied indifferently, "I've helped you enough."
Yun Chuan had no choice but to leave the yurt. Seeing that Yang Qingyuan, Shangdu Khan and others were still standing there, he quietly returned to his residence.
After waiting for a while, a guard finally reported that Yang Qingyuan came to look for her. Yang Qingyuan walked in, and Yun Chuan asked quickly: "You were surrounded by them just now, are you not injured?"
"No, I wanted to get hurt but didn't find the opportunity." Yang Qingyuan waved his hand and said, "But their emotions towards Dawei are very complicated."
"We all have quite complicated emotions towards Dawei, and the way you look so arrogant is really irritating!" Yunchuan said with a smile.
Yang Qingyuan was stunned for a moment before he realized where Yunchuan's "arrogance" came from. He was a little embarrassed and asked quickly: "How is it? Have you found it?"
Yun Chuan looked at Yang Qingyun's slightly red ears, pursed his lips and smiled, quickly took out the small box and said: "This is the century-old snow lotus. You can eat one within five days after being poisoned, and two within five to seven days. I
Just to be on the safe side, I took two."
"Is this pill a hundred-year snow lotus?" Yang Qingyuan asked in surprise, "Isn't it to say that Shangdu Khan regarded the hundred-year snow lotus as a sacred object and would rather die than take the hundred-year snow lotus? Why is this happening now?"
"I'm also very strange. I think Shangdu Khan may have some hidden disease, so he has to take century-old snow lotus. It's just..." Yunchuan looked down at the snow lotus in the box, thinking of Mingcheng's exchange conditions, his thoughts were confused, and he didn't know what to do.
Complete Ming Chengti's exchange conditions.
"Just what?" Yang Qingyuan looked at Yun Chuan who was hesitating and took a step forward and asked.
Yunchuan sighed and told Mingcheng's conditions. Before Yunchuan could finish speaking, Yang Qingyuan clenched his right hand into a fist and slammed it on the table. The cups on the table kept shaking.
Yun Chuan looked at Yang Qingyuan's red hand after beating it, and felt a little pain. He hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I will take care of this. If it doesn't work, if the soft one doesn't work, just hard one!" Yang Qingyuan looked at Yun Chuan.
Her heart is full of gratitude. From yesterday to now, everything she does is taking risks, and she always protects his safety and is considerate for him.
"Princess Yunchuan, Princess Nata is here and she wants to see you." The guard reported from outside.
Yun Chuan quickly asked Yang Qingyun to put the small box away and said, "Invite her in."
Princess Nata walked in wearing a pink dress, holding a blooming snow lotus in her hand. Her pink face was made more rosy by the crystal white snow lotus. Nata was a little surprised to see Yang Qingyuan also in the room.
, but was immediately covered up by the smile in the corner of his eyes, and said crisply: "Sister Yunchuan, I sent you this snow lotus flower, put it in this bottle, add our unique nourishing water in the bottle, keep it for a month
no problem."
Yun Chuan remembered the excuse he had mentioned to Nata last night, and suddenly glanced at Yang Qingyuan shyly, took the vase and put it on the table, saying, "Thank you, sister Nata, for your thoughtfulness."
"Sister, why are you being polite to me? Although we have never met before, I have heard stories about you since I was a child. Everyone says that you are the elf on our grassland. You are smart, beautiful and kind. It is so wonderful to meet you this time.
I'm so happy. You don't know how disappointed I was when I heard you weren't coming when I first arrived." Nata took the initiative to hold Yunchuan's hand, with two blushes spreading across her face.
Yun Chuan felt uncomfortable, being praised so much by a little girl he met for the first time, and Yang Qingyuan was still there. "Two princesses, I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave first." Yang Qingyuan felt that she was a little redundant, so she raised her hands and saluted.
"Ah, did I disturb you?" Nata said guiltily, but she held Yun Chuan's hand tighter.
Yun Chuan said helplessly: "No, Qingyun...brother, I won't send it to you."
The two of them watched Yang Qingyuan leave. Nata looked at Yun Chuan, her youthful and smart eyes suddenly filled with tears, and big teardrops fell down. Yun Chuan panicked and quickly found a handkerchief and handed it over:
"Sister Nata, why are you crying? Sit down quickly and talk about what you have to say."
"I, sister, I'm scared." Nata sobbed.
Yunchuan poured a glass of water and handed it to Nata: "What happened? Speak slowly."
Nata wiped her tears and slowly calmed down and said: "You know, my mother passed away when I was 9 years old. Although my brother treated me very well, he was a man after all, and I had no one to talk to about many things. My father had strictly forbidden me since I was a child.
When I go out, I have followed the customs of Dawei to learn music, chess, calligraphy, painting, and embroidery. I have no friends at all in the desert. Sister Yunchuan, although we have never met before, every time I hear others talk about you,
