Chapter 42 Precious masks

Xie Yao raised her eyebrows and was about to ask, but her grandfather stepped in and said, "Don't ask me, just do as I'm told. There's also the matter of the antidote. Once you've prepared it, put it in Prince Han's Mansion and get it when needed."

return."

Xie Yao had no choice but to hold back her doubts again and nodded.

Xie Wenwu also mentioned the antidote, and there is really no rush to take it.

"Okay, you go and have some rest. You'll stay here tonight and it won't be too late to return to Prince Han's Mansion tomorrow. I have Li Qiye watching over me, so you don't have to worry about it." Grandfather actually started to say goodbye.

Xie Yao was indeed tired. She went to the palace for a banquet during the day. She just came back and made a meal, then returned to the general's mansion. Now the sky was completely dark.

After bidding farewell to her grandfather, she returned to Lianshui Pavilion with the triping grass.

"Your medical skills," Mr. Xie suddenly said after a pause, his expression more serious than ever, and his old eyes widened a little.

Xie Yao turned around, her heart moved slightly, was she finally going to ask?

When I decided to take action before, I knew this moment would come.

"Use it carefully. It is a double-edged sword that can help you or hurt you. Now that you have saved me, there is no turning back. You should be more careful in the future, think twice before you act, and stop being arrogant and reckless.

." Grandfather didn't ask anything, he just gave instructions.

Hearing this, Xie Yao thought about the fact that her grandfather had prepared the antidote in advance, and was about to speak.

"Go ahead, don't ask anything. You will know what you should know." After Mr. Xie said that, he closed his eyes directly.

Xie Yao was a little angry and funny.

The grandfather's child had a bad temper, and no one in the general's palace could resist him. The grandfather talked a lot, and asked a lot of questions, but when she asked, he didn't even give her a chance to speak...

Forget it, if you don’t ask, don’t ask.

After returning to Lianshui Pavilion, although Xie Yao was tired, she couldn't sleep, so she lay in the yard and looked at the stars in the sky, her mind clear.

Grandfather knew that someone was going to poison him, and he knew what kind of poison he was going to poison, but he was the only one in the general's palace who knew this.

If she had not intervened, this secret would have been buried in her grandfather's heart forever.

Of course, this result is what grandfather wants to see, but this result requires grandfather to lose his life.

This was the reason why she couldn't sleep at all.

She didn't understand why her grandfather was willing to be poisoned and die!



The next day.

Xie Yao had breakfast and paid a visit to his grandfather before leaving the general's mansion.

Not only the Pei family was seeing off this time, but also Xie Zhuo, who was unwilling to stay in Prince Han's Mansion for only one day.

Xie Zhuo wanted to follow him to Prince Han's Mansion, but was secretly stopped by Pei.

Before Xie Yao got on the carriage, she looked back at Pei. Remembering the last time she found that there was no toxin in Pei's body, she calmed down and said without any hesitation: "Please come back. My grandfather was poisoned. I hope a thorough investigation can be done to avoid

Something similar will happen again. My grandfather has just recovered from a serious illness, my brother is also injured, and you need to see everything in the house, so there is no need to waste time on me."

After saying that, without waiting for Mr. Pei's usual praise, he turned around and got into the carriage.

This time, Mrs. Pei had better not poison her grandfather, otherwise she would let Mr. Pei have a good taste of the fun of being poisoned!

Mrs. Pei's lips moved, her brows furrowed slightly, she suppressed the doubts in her heart, said to Princess Han, "Go slowly," and then said nothing more.

This Xie Yao seems to be getting weirder and weirder.

"Mom, it's all your fault for doting on her! Look how arrogant she is!" Xie Zhuo said dissatisfied.

Arrogant? Pei didn't comment, looked deeply at the carriage in the distance, and turned around to go home.



Prince Han's Mansion.

As soon as Xie Yao got off the carriage, Shan Quan came up to greet her, "I've met the princess."

"No gifts." Xie Yao was a little confused, is Shan Quan so free?

Sure enough, Shan Quan was not simply waiting for her here, but was ordered by Chu Han.

"The prince has ordered you to freshen up and get ready as soon as possible after you come back, and then take this to the front hall." Shan Quan said and took out something.

Xie Yao glanced at it and raised her eyebrows unexpectedly, "Prince Chen is coming to the palace?"

That thing looks very similar to a modern mask, but much simpler.

Apart from King Chen, I can’t think of anyone who can wear a mask to see him.

"It is indeed His Highness King Chen." Shan Quan was a little surprised, but was relieved immediately. King Chen's illness was well known to everyone in the capital.

However, he still knew everything and secretly lowered his voice and said: "Princess, it's better to be careful. Prince Chen's disease is extremely contagious. Even several of the guards around Prince Chen have been infected."

Xie Yao smiled.

Of course she had seen King Chen's tuberculosis. Not only had she seen it, but she had also rescued him once.

Seeing that the princess didn't take it seriously, Shan Quan wanted to speak again.

Xie Yao nodded and smiled slightly, "You go and tell the prince that I am not feeling well, so I won't go there. The same goes for asking Shangguan's concubine to accompany me."

I met someone with an infectious disease, but I remembered to let her go. Why didn't I call her Shangguan Yue at this time?

Shan Quan paused, a little embarrassed, "The prince said it himself, it has to be you."

When Xie Yao heard this, his face immediately darkened.

She has to do it? What does Chu Han want to do!

He was worried about the power of the general's palace and did not dare to give her a divorce letter. He would let her contract tuberculosis and die. No one could find fault with her?

Seeing that the princess was angry, Shan Quan didn't know what to say and found an excuse to leave.

Returning to Fuyunxuan, Xie Yao threw the broken mask aside and began to prepare the antidote.

With Tributa in hand, the sooner the antidote is prepared, the better.

About half an hour later, Shan Quan came again, stood at the door of the courtyard and said loudly: "Princess, the prince wants you to go there as soon as possible. Prince Chen has already arrived."

Xie Yao sat still and said, "Let the prince go find Shangguan's concubine. I am ill and cannot go."

"The concubine went there, but was scolded by the prince and went back." Shan Quan said truthfully.

Xie Yao's hand movements were a bit unexpected.

Shangguan Yue took the initiative to go there. Aren't you afraid of being infected?

The only benefit to Shangguan Yue from taking the initiative to get close to a person suffering from tuberculosis is that it can prove that her status in Prince Han's palace surpasses that of the principal concubine.

For the sake of status, I would even risk my life, tsk tsk.

"Okay, you go and tell the prince, I will be there right away." Since Shangguan Yue has passed, she should also go and have a look.

He looked up and saw the mask he had placed next to him before and asked Shan Quan again, "Does Shangguan's concubine also have the things you gave me?"

"No." Shan Quan explained in great detail: "This thing was passed down from the palace. It is extremely precious. There are only two in Prince Han's palace, and they are in the hands of you and the prince."

This surprised Xie Yao.

So Chu Han is quite impressive?

When she was wearing a mask to give first aid to King Chen, the soldiers in Prince Chen's palace looked a little strange at her color, but she didn't care. It turned out that masks had become a rare thing.

After completely preparing the antidote and putting it away, she took the 'precious' mask and rushed to the front hall.
