Chapter 988 Hibiscus is not as good as beauty makeup 26
Everything is silent, no one can hear anyone.
Yun Tuan looked at the little bit of dark red on the tip of the dagger and suspected that it was poisonous, but she hesitated between "putting it back in the storage compartment to clean it" and "stabbing someone and trying it".
However, there are currently no enemies around here.
Anyway, I have the gem in hand, so the next experiment will be the same. Yun Tuan thought about it and put the dagger back into the storage compartment.
Tantai Sumire in front of her suddenly frowned and murmured something, then changed her position and fell asleep again.
Yun Tuan didn't hear the content clearly. After waiting for a while, the person on the other side was quiet again, with no sign of continuing.
…Today’s NPCs are really smart.
Yun Tuan leaned against the car curtain and began to sort out the information collected so far:
Under a menacing horse plague, war horses were seriously ill, while ordinary domestic horses had milder symptoms. This horse plague may have been spread maliciously.
There is something wrong with the Fifth Prince's Palace, but the details are unknown.
Qi Rong has resentment against Liang Jing, but he has lived in the frontier for so long and is responsible for escorting tributes. He can't see any objection, but there is also the possibility of taking action at any time.
Qi Huan looks like a silly boy...
As for the tributes, there is a problem with these beauties. Are they marionettes being used, or are they well-trained assassins?
If it is an assassin, then the people in the escort agency will still be safe on the way. After all, they have to pretend, but if it is not possible, they will start killing as soon as they arrive at the destination.
I don’t know if those gold and silver jewelry are quenched with poison.
Yun Tuan sighed, it would be great if Xiao Xi had the ability to detect toxins like Night Hou.
Her existing resources are not very good. Apart from the medicinal materials she saved for the Tantai brothers and sisters, she only has a chamber pot with disgusting contents, a handful of foxtail grass, and a few questionable jewelry.
If not, just include the stones and bricks used to pound the medicine...
Yun Tuan shook his head, he was really shabby.
How to play with a bad hand - fortunately, she only needs to find the wat board and the descendants of the Su family.
The person who received the task of rehabilitating General Su was the star in the sky.
Yun Tuan subconsciously picked at the edge of the carriage seat, and something seemed to be stuck on her hand. She raised her hand and saw that it was sticky and dark, with a bitter medicinal smell.
Even though her hand was half a meter away from her nose, the smell still drifted into her nasal cavity. She wiped it off with a rag and put it outside the car curtain in disgust. After a second thought, she threw the rag back into the storage compartment.
In these extraordinary times, we can save whatever we can.
But the smell just now seemed like some herbs mixed together to deodorize and repel mosquitoes, right?
Deodorize, mask odor...
Yun Tuan frowned, and all kinds of bad suspicions flashed through her mind. However, she still had to stay in this carriage for ten days, so she could only pretend not to notice and forcefully divert her attention——
This copy is titled "Hibiscus is not as beautiful as beauty", which comes from Wang Changling's "Autumn Resentments in the West Palace".
Hibiscus is not as beautiful as the makeup, and the wind in the water palace brings the fragrance of pearls and green flowers.
Who cries and covers the autumn fan, and hangs the bright moon in the sky to wait for the king.
The clouds silently carry the whole poem in their hearts.
Although the hibiscus is beautiful, it is not as good as the beauty's dress. The wind blows through the emperor's cruise ship, the pearls and emeralds sway, and the fragrance of women floats in the air. Unexpectedly, today, I can only cover my face with a fan, cry sadly, and stand there every night.
Under the bright moonlight, waiting for the emperor's favor.
What does a poem with a strong contrast between before and after have to do with the copy?
Does this poem need to be over-interpreted for Paradise?
Is it possible that Qi Rong was the palace concubine. When she was young and strong, she was victorious on the battlefield, but due to her great achievements, she was relieved of military power and exiled to the frontier, with no place to use... She could only escort the tributes to the distant place of Liang Jing.
Take a look at the palace wall?
Goosebumps appeared in the clouds, and she rubbed her arms. No, it shouldn't be.
Could it be a hint...
Is it possible that the descendants of the Su family are related to the palace concubine?
She glanced at the sleeping Tantai siblings and prepared to ask again tomorrow.
In the second half of the night, Yun Tuan was hesitating whether to wake them up. Tantai Sheng woke up rubbing his eyes and looked at the moonlight, "Miss Yun, please rest first. You have worked hard in the first half of the night."
He originally wanted to stay alone, but as soon as he sat up straight, he touched the corner of Tantai Sumire's clothes and woke her up.
So Tantai Jin said the same thing again.
Yun Tuan nodded, shrank into a corner and fell asleep.
Half asleep and half awake, a ball seemed to hit her collarbone. Yun Tuan vaguely pulled up her collar and ignored it.
The next day.
Yun Tuan woke up from the bumps and shakes of the carriage. She first looked at her hands drowsily, which were white and unstained, and then scratched the mosquito bite on the corner of her jaw.
"Have you set off yet?"
"Yes, I have been gone for an hour. Mr. Qi came to see you and saw that you were sleeping soundly, so he did not wake you up."
Tantai Jin looked at the missing gemstone and felt a little confused.
"What are you asking me to do? Is there anything important?" Yun Tuan sat upright and hit his sore waist.
In reality, she does not suffer from diseases such as lumbar disc herniation or lumbar muscle strain, so this feeling should be due to the previous incident where Luo Yun fell off a horse.
It's not that it hurts to death, but the sense of presence is too strong, sore and painful, like the discomfort caused by maintaining a posture for a long time.
"Not really. He caught a hare and roasted it to share with you. Seeing that you didn't wake up, he ate it himself." Tantai Sheng looked regretful and seemed to have been coveting roasted rabbit meat for a long time.
"Oh, then I'll wake up earlier tomorrow."
Yun Tuan said seriously. Seeing that Tantai Jin was still looking at the forehead ornament, he simply told her about the problem with the gem.
"Ah? Then I wore it for so long yesterday..." Tantai Jin groped around on her face, worrying about what kind of strange horns she had grown.
"You should be... are you okay? Are you feeling any discomfort today?" Yun Tuan took a closer look and found that Tantai Jin didn't even turn black. Her face was rosy, and she didn't look like she was about to go to an emperor who would eat people without spitting out their bones.
City people.
Tantai Jin's face turned pale, but she quickly calmed down and analyzed carefully: "That's not true. I think it takes a few days for it to have an impact on people, right?"
"Well, if the medicine is so strong, those people in the past will soon show abnormality, and the people in the escort agency will also feel uncomfortable if they come into contact with it even a little bit." Yun Tuan nodded.
There was a noise outside.
She lifted the curtain and saw that she had arrived at a city. Qi Huan was talking to the guard and then got a token.
The escort car continued to move forward. Occasionally, some people cast curious glances, but when they saw the flag of Liang Jing’s official family, they all wisely got out of the way.
It went more smoothly than she expected.
But it’s only the first two days, so I can’t see much.
"Xiaoyun, it's better to close the curtain and stop looking..." Tantai Jin said, patting the empty seat next to her, "Come over here, let's talk something."
Yun Tuan followed the instructions and got through, and her original position was taken by Tantai Sheng.
"What's wrong?"
"How did you find out there was something wrong with the jewelry last night?" Tantai Jin asked curiously.
"It's nothing. It's just my hands. I twisted it twice and found something wrong." Yun Tuan twitched the corner of his mouth.
"You are much better than my brother. If it were him, even if I were snatched away, I wouldn't be able to find out." Tantai Sumire curled her lips and complained.
"No matter what happens, Mr. Tantai is also meticulous."
