Although Sheng Weiqiao planned to go back that night, he ordered Sheng Xiang to buy himself some sweat medicine without telling Sheng Suihe, so that he could take off Sheng Suihe's clothes to verify whether there was "the birthmark of the third son of the Gaomi Palace."
But because Sheng Weiwu was in high spirits that night, it was almost dawn when the group returned to Sheng's house.
Sheng Weiqiao, who was still not fully recovered, forced Sheng Weiwu to go back to her room to settle down. After that, she was simply helped back to the side room and fell asleep... Even the maid took off her coat.
She didn't wake up until noon the next day.
While dressing up, she remembered her decision last night and told Lu Qi: "Go and call Sheng Xiang over later. I have something to tell him to do!"
Lu Qi agreed and went out. Lu Jin, who was combing her long hair, asked: "Miss, what do you have to do with Manager Xiang?"
She didn't ask this out of pure curiosity, mainly because as Sheng Weiqiao's personal maid, she also knew that the young lady she was serving was not as well-behaved and docile as she seemed to others. In order to prevent Sheng Weiqiao from causing trouble, Lu Jin naturally had to pay close attention to her. Every move.
Sheng Weiqiao didn't want to talk about it at first. After all, she couldn't possibly tell Lu Jin that she planned to drug Sheng Suihe and then take off his clothes to look for his birthmark, right
However, considering that he usually doesn't touch Yangchun water with his fingers, Sheng Suihe's plan to drink the sweat medicine might require Lu Jin's help.
So he pondered for a while and then said: "On Miss Meng Shishi's birthday, when we went to Zheng Guogong's Mansion to congratulate her, didn't Miss Meng Shiyi tell us to be careful of those who use perspiration and beauty potions when we go out? I want to be alone It’s useless to be careful, after all, we don’t even know what that kind of thing looks like... So I want Sheng Xiang to grab some Mongolian sweat medicine and take a look.”
Because Sheng Weiqiao and Huan Yehe dismissed everyone when they mentioned Sheng Sleeping Crane that day, and only Huan Yehe's confidant Wangyou was waiting for tea, so Lu Jin didn't know about the so-called "birthmark".
Of course, Sheng Weiqiao's real purpose could not be imagined at this moment.
Hearing her explanation, although he felt a little surprised, but thinking about Sheng Weiqiao's experience after coming to Chang'an, he thought that his young lady was a bit out of control. However, in Lu Jin's view, Sheng Weiqiao had never had much power in the city, so it was a good thing to be more thoughtful.
So I reminded Sheng Weiqiao: "Miss, why don't you ask Manager Xiang to grab some of the love potions?"
Since we have to learn to identify this harmful thing, how can we only focus on the sweat medicine and ignore the beauty medicine
To put it bluntly, for women like them, especially Sheng Weiqiao, who is very good-looking, the possibility of being given a love potion is higher than the possibility of being given a perspiration potion!
Seeing that she had no doubts, Sheng Weiqiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's OK..." She thought that although she only needed the Mongolian sweat medicine and not the love medicine, it would just be a matter of spending more money. After Sheng Xiang got it, she would throw it away. Just remove the charm potion and leave the sweat potion alone.
He will not forget to make up for the flaws, "That love potion is really dirty, so I don't want to mention it."
"It's dirty, so we have to recognize it more and more." Lu Jin said with a smile, "Anyway, just bring it over and have a look... No matter how dirty the thing is, it won't stain us."
While talking, Sheng Weiqiao finished dressing up, moved outside, sat down, and Lu Qi led Sheng Xiang in.
Although both the inside and outside of this wing belong to Sheng Weiqiao's current boudoir, and Sheng Xiang is not too old, but since he is a son of the family and an old man under Old Mrs. Sheng, it doesn't hurt to come in and reply now.
Sheng Weiqiao waved off the idle messenger, told him the reason he had just told Lu Jin, and said: "Go and have a look and get one each. It's just that this is not a glorious thing. Be careful and don't let anyone know." , lest people think we are going to do something and ruin our reputation."
Seeing Sheng Xiang nodding, he specifically warned, "Brother, especially, don't tell me!"
Sheng Xiang agreed with a smile. Seeing that Sheng Weiqiao had nothing else to give him, he resigned and went out to do things.
The steward lived up to Sheng Weiqiao's expectations. At noon the next day, he brought over what Sheng Weiqiao asked for, which were two small paper bags. After opening them, he saw a pale pink powder exuding a strong floral fragrance. ; one part is a dusty powder, and you can smell a slight sour smell if you get closer.
Sheng Xiang explained: "The pink color is the charm potion, and the gray color is the sweat potion. Miss, remember their smell, and when you go out later, if you encounter similar ones in food or incense, you must leave as soon as possible and find someone you can trust to be with you!"
"What is the dosage of this medicine?" Sheng Weiqiao asked insinuatingly, "Will anything go wrong if it is too much, such as endangering your life?"
She was afraid that Sheng Xiang would be suspicious, so she hurriedly added, "I thought these two piles of powder looked ordinary, but I didn't expect them to be such nasty things as the rumors said... If the dosage is small, this charm potion is just fine, and this Mongolian sweat potion is just fine." , I’m afraid the smell is very subtle and difficult to identify, right?”
Because she was too guilty, she was just trying to adjust her tone and demeanor so as not to reveal any flaws, so Sheng Weiqiao didn't notice. When she said, "These two piles of powder look strangely ordinary," Sheng Xiang's eyes twitched before returning to normal, and said with a smile: "Miss, this thing is not fatal, but if you use it too much, you will definitely get dizzy and headache! Generally speaking, a little bit of sweat medicine powder in a cup of wine is enough. And if it is mixed with their food, unless it is The taste is particularly strong, otherwise it will be a bit astringent. From now on, when the lady goes out to visit, if she is visiting someone she is not familiar with, she should try to eat something lighter, and I think she can avoid most of the plots."
"Will you get a headache if you use it too much?" Sheng Weiqiao secretly wrote it down and thought to himself, "Then I can't put too much back in... After all, there are only a few days until spring!"
She just said yesterday that Princess Qingfang didn't know the importance of the matter. He was sleeping and spring was about to come, so why did she keep appearing in front of him to mess up his mood? Could she do the same thing now
With this in mind, she said thank you to Sheng Xiang and sent him away.
Sheng Xiang originally wanted to take the two medicines away, but Sheng Weiqiao said: "I asked you to grab these two medicines just to improve your memory. I just put them in front of you for a while. How can you remember them? Especially when this Mongolian sweat medicine smells so good." Dan...either you take the charm potion and destroy it, and keep the sweat potion for me to get familiar with it again!"
"After the lady remembers the smell, you'd better give it to the little one to destroy it!" Sheng Xiang heard the words, agreed, and then warned, "Otherwise, leave it here with the lady. Don't forget it one day and put it in the food for the lady by mistake. , but something is going to go wrong.”
Sheng Weiqiao thought to himself that he only needed a little bit of sweat medicine anyway, so this pile of powder would be returned to Sheng Xiang when the time came. Couldn't he still see it
So he said cheerfully: "Don't worry, I'll give it to you in a few days!"
As he spoke, he quickly wrapped the paper bag containing the sweat medicine and put it into his sleeve, "Okay, you can go and do your own business. I'll go see the eighth sister!"
She went to the wing where Sheng Weiwu lived next door and played with her cousin for a while, deliberately bringing the topic to food.
Then it was logical to order the small kitchen to prepare the food that the sisters suddenly wanted to eat. Of course, they did not forget to send someone to ask Sheng Suihe and Gongsun Yingjiang if they needed it.
Finally, the small kitchen made lotus cake fillings, exquisite peony bream, Xiaoyao Zhi, crispy apples, golden crisps and wishful rolls for the guests to make snacks for their afternoon entertainment. Sheng Weiqiao specially ordered a pot of Zhejiang, Zhejiang It's sugar cane juice. It tastes very sweet. The three girls like it very much, but Sheng Sleeping Crane doesn't.
In this way, Sheng Weiqiao had some snacks in Sheng Weiwu's wing, and after making excuses to leave, he asked Sheng Suihe about his enjoyment of the pastries and water, and heard the person below say: "The master has tasted all six kinds of snacks and said they are pretty good. It's just that the syrup was too sweet, so the eldest son didn't touch it at all, so he sent it back to the kitchen as it was."
"There is a reason why I asked the small kitchen to prepare the juice. How could my brother not drink it at all?" This was something Sheng Weiqiao expected. After all, they had lived together for two years, and Sheng Suihe's diet had changed. How could she not know about a little hobby? When he heard this, he said, "Go and get the slurry and bring it to me. I'll go and persuade my brother."
Seeing her servant turning around and running towards the kitchen, she curled her lips slightly, walked quickly back to the wing where she lived, and even entered the inner room specifically.
After a while, a servant came in with a cup of wine on an ebony lacquer plate. Sheng Weiqiao reached out and touched it casually, then said, "It's a little cold. Just warm it up with my hand stove for a while, so as not to go to my brother later." Spend time over there.”
As he spoke, he glanced at the servant who had come to get the juice, waved her hand to send her away, and then said to Lu Jin who came into the inner room to serve Lu Jin, "Go get some hot water and mix it a little, so that your brother won't I think it tastes too sweet and I can’t drink it!”
She was the only one left in the inner room. With excitement and anxiety, Sheng Weiqiao took out the paper bag containing the sweat medicine from his sleeve, carefully shook a little bit into the pulp, then picked up the glass cup and shook it hard, and hurriedly Let it go and pretend like nothing happened!
Afterwards, Lu Jin fetched hot water, Sheng Weiqiao added some water to the sauce, and then led her to the study.
After entering the door, he saw Sheng Suihe immediately put down his book, greeted him with a smile, and said: "Brother, we grew up in the south and are not used to the severe cold in the north. Ever since we came to Chang'an, the dragons here have not stopped. How could it be that we have been here for several days? Can you avoid accumulating fire in your body? This squid is sweet and cold, can purge fire and heat, and can also clear and detoxify, nourish yin and moisturize dryness. Even if you don’t like its overly sweet taste, for the sake of your health, you should drink some. !”
As he spoke, he put the pulp on the desk and pushed it in front of him, as if "you have to drink it even if you don't want to drink it."
"My good girl brought it here in person, so I will drink it of course." Although Sheng Suihe didn't like the sweetness of Zhejiang, he liked Sheng Weiqiao's concern for him. Hearing this, he took the glass cup with a smile and brought it to his lips. …
Sheng Weiqiao, who was a little excited, a little expectant and a little frightened, looked at this scene and was about to rejoice that the work was about to be completed. Suddenly he remembered that he forgot to ask Sheng Xiang how quickly the sweat medicine took effect!
If someone falls down after he drinks it, Lu Jinzai can just pay it back. This is his confidant. Yi Liu, who is waiting for Sheng Sleeping Crane's pen and ink, is Sheng Sleeping Crane's person!
How could he just sit back and watch himself take off the sleeping crane's clothes
She hurriedly made up for it: "I have something to tell my brother alone. You guys should get out quickly!"
Hearing this, Lu Jin immediately blessed Fu and left. However, Yi Liu looked at Sheng Sleeping He and saw Sheng Sleeping He nodded before leaving.
So there were only two people left in the study. Sheng Sleeping Crane drank the juice in one gulp and asked with a smile: "Good girl, what's the matter?"
