This thing went through the Zhao family's hands one by one, and then was put away by Zhao Lide. He planned to relax a little in two days and then go outside the capital to test its power.
"If this thing is really as powerful as you say, then I will have it mass-produced."
Zhao Lide narrowed his eyes and said in a sinister tone, "Since the Emperor is unkind to me, don't blame me for being unjust to him!"
Although Zhao Pengcheng didn't understand what happened, looking at the excited and complicated faces of the elders, he knew that it should be something that could determine the fate of their family.
He didn't dare to speak, but he couldn't understand what they were saying. As he looked around, he saw a figure passing by outside the door. It was a slender figure of a woman. His heart moved slightly, and he recognized that person. who.
Zhao Pengcheng didn't know why his grandfather wanted to buy a brothel girl, but he didn't care. To him, it was like a nod to the girl without having to pay for whoring.
After the family meeting ended, he immediately walked out to look for the figure he had just seen.
Sun Leyao slowly jumped down from the chair, because Zhao Lide carefully cleared out all the servants before discussing the matter, and even blocked all the secret guards, so now she can only go by herself, and the Zhao family members themselves are trying to kill her As a chess piece, naturally no one would hug her.
She walked outside the door and saw the back of Zhao Pengcheng leaving in a hurry.
[System, what did he do? 】
The system didn’t know either, so it suggested, [Why don’t the host follow up and take a look. 】
Sun Leyao looked around and saw that no one in the Zhao family lowered their head to notice her, so she quietly followed Zhao Pengcheng.
In a hidden place, she saw Zhao Pengcheng impatiently holding a graceful woman.
Then, she heard the woman's charming voice, "Mr. Zhao, what are you doing~"
What followed was a back-and-forth flirtation between the two.
Sun Leyao frowned, mentally scolding Zhao Pengcheng over and over again for failing to achieve anything but failing.
That woman was the brothel woman she suggested the Zhao family buy, her name was Haitang. In her previous life, her face had fascinated Yu Quezhi, so she bought it in advance to prepare for emergencies.
She will be used tomorrow. Wouldn't it be a bad thing if there were any unclean marks on her body today?
Sun Leyao couldn't stop her because Zhao Pengcheng hated her very much since the palace banquet.
She could only scold Haitang in her heart that she was indeed a brothel prostitute. Even in the Zhao family, she still couldn't change her habit of seducing men.
In fact, this time it was not Haitang's choice. She heard something she shouldn't have heard at the door of the study and left in a hurry.
She was even thinking about whether she would treat him differently if she told the man she met in the brothel last time about the gunpowder.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Pengcheng rushed towards her from behind as she was walking, and asked her if she had heard something she shouldn't have heard just now.
Haitang, who was already feeling guilty, could only flatter him and roll with him with a smile.
Looking at the face in front of her that could not be called handsome at all, Haitang closed her eyes, and another face appeared in her mind.
After Zhao Pengcheng finished solving the problem, he stood up rudely and said lightly, "It's boring. It's just because you have a good face. Otherwise, I really don't want to touch you."
The expression on Haitang's face was so angry that it was dark now, otherwise Zhao Pengcheng would have seen Haitang glaring at him.
Zhao Pengcheng touched his chin, reminiscing as he walked back, and murmured: "They all have similar faces. I don't know what the difference is between the two of them."
The next day, Mrs. Lin held four exquisite hollowed-out incense sticks in her hand and gave one to each of the people waiting in the main hall.
She had someone prepare it in private. Miss Jun told her that it could cure 80% of the aphrodisiacs on the market.
Jiang Heli, who had arrived late, was extremely surprised when he held the delicate ball, "Aunt Lin, do I have one too?"
Mrs. Lin smiled and said softly: "All four of you have it. If you feel uncomfortable, just open it and eat it, just to be prepared."
There are two pills in one, and Bai Wanrou's one has three pills in it, which should be enough.
"Thank you Aunt Lin."
Jiang Heli carefully put the incense in his arms, raised his lips and smiled.
Mrs. Lin also told Juan Juan not to eat randomly there because he was worried about being drugged.
"Okay, you go ahead. By the way, Wanrou, you have to pay more attention." She mentioned vaguely.
Bai Wanrou blushed and nodded, then got into the carriage.
This spring banquet was attended by almost all men and women of appropriate age, and the carriages outside the peony garden were jammed.
Before they entered, they saw two brothers and sisters, Lin Shijin and Lin Xuanwei, who had just gotten off another carriage.
Lin Shijin still felt a bit complacent that he didn't know where to come from. He looked at them for a while and then reluctantly came over to say hello.
The most important thing was what Lin Xuanwei was wearing. Juanjuan was very suspicious that Su Minglian had given her all the jewelry at home.
Juanjuan thought highly of him because he was held in his arms by his eldest brother, so he counted them specially.
Bu Yao alone brought six of them, including a pair of double wedding hairpins, two pairs of small gold hairpins, a comb, and several head flowers of unknown shapes.
Looking back at Aunt Wanrou, she looks extremely simple in comparison.
Lin Shijinpi smiled, holding the ink jade bone fan and shaking it as if to show off, "What a coincidence, eldest brother and second brother."
Yu Shixu nodded politely to him and said nothing.
Lin Xuanwei's eyes lit up and she couldn't move her eyes away, "Cousin, you look really good today. By the way, look at the bone fan in my brother's hand. This is what I wanted to give you!"
Not to mention what her eldest brother was thinking, even Juan Juan couldn't explain it in words.
[I don’t know if she is really stupid or pretending to be stupid. Even if she is really stupid, she can’t be so stupid~]
For a while, no one paid any attention to her, not even her own brother, who had a dark face and said nothing.
Bai Wanrou didn't know what had happened before, but seeing her in such embarrassment, she weakly changed the subject, which was considered as giving her a step down.
"I, let's go in..."
She had good intentions to rescue Lin Xuanwei, but she didn't expect that her voice would make Lin Xuanwei notice her.
"Who are you?" Lin Xuanwei looked familiar to her, so her eyes were a little hostile.
Bai Wanrou was stunned for a moment, and then said softly: "Miss Cousin, I am Bai Wanrou. We met when we were children."
Lin Xuanwei suddenly realized, the hostility in her eyes faded away, and she asked with a bit of curiosity.
"I heard that your aunt was driven away by my uncle. Why are you still living in my uncle's house if you don't go back to your own home?"
Bai Wanrou didn't hear this. She was always living under someone else's roof, and her eyes immediately turned red when she heard something sad.
"I-I'm sorry..." she choked.
When Juanjuan saw that his little aunt was crying, he quickly stretched out his chubby hand and patted her, comforting her with a sweet voice.
"Little aunt, don't be sad~"
She turned her head and spoke to Lin Xuanwei in a fierce tone, "Mu is so annoying!"
Yu Quezhi also frowned slightly, "Lin Xuanwei, can you speak? Do you need to intervene in my family?"
Bai Wanrou was born delicate and delicate, and even Lin Shijin couldn't look away when she cried like this.
He came back to his senses and looked at his sister disapprovingly, extremely unhappy, "Apologise to her quickly, you are too reckless!"
Lin Xuanwei looked at four people with condemning glances: "...?"
What happened suddenly?
