Nalan Jinnian held her slender waist tightly with one hand, raised his other hand, and gently stroked her delicate face.
The clear breath sprayed on Wen Nuan's neck, and the deep and mellow voice carried a heart-throbbing threat. Wen Wen's long eyelashes trembled, and his heartbeat was a little faster: "No,... I didn't say anything!"
Most of Wen Nuan's body was lying on his body. This position was a bit dangerous, so she quickly struggled to sit up.
Suddenly Nalan Jinnian frowned and couldn't help but take a breath.
warmth:"... ... ."
Nuan Nuan silently took away his hand that was in the wrong place and jumped up!
Looking at Nalan Jinnian who showed pain on his face: "Are you okay?"
"I don't know, do you want to check it out?" Nalan Jinnian wrinkled his face and joked.
warmth:"... ... "
This man!
Wen Nuan directly pulled off the hairpin on his head and said with a sinister smile: "I'll give you an injection and you'll be fine!"
Nalan Jinnian: "..."
He immediately sat upright and said seriously: "It's okay!"
Wen Nuan rolled her eyes at him, placed the hairpin casually on the table, sat down, poured a cup of tea and said, "Have you told the emperor about Liu Xiaoen?"
Nalan Jinnian also stood up, walked to Nuan Nuan and sat down: "I told you. The Liu family has done a good job in river transportation. I asked him to transport your batch of health-preserving medicine to the front line of southern Xinjiang within twenty days. Discord Together with the baggage train."
"He agreed?"
Twenty days are very tight!
But these are life-saving medicines, and of course the sooner they are delivered to the front lines, the better!
If you follow the imperial court's baggage troops, it will take at least more than a month to arrive.
After all, the imperial court's baggage troops had to transport a lot of things, including ordnance, food, clothing, and other materials.
There are so many things and so many people, even if you are traveling day and night, it will be slow.
Nalan Jinnian glanced at Wen Nuan: "He couldn't wait to agree!"
Wen Nuan laughed: "It seems that the Liu family is quite capable."
Being able to secretly deliver medicine to the imperial court was considered a lucrative job.
But it is related to the life and death of the soldiers on the front line and the success or failure of the war. If the delivery is delayed, the war will be delayed and the soldiers will have no medicine to heal their injuries!
That's a capital crime!
No businessman without that strength would dare to interfere in such a thing!
And Liu Xiaoen couldn't wait to agree, which shows that the Liu family is very powerful in river transportation.
As long as he can safely deliver the medicine to the front line, this can be said to be a great good thing for the Liu family!
Since ancient times, the higher the risk of the transaction, the higher the return has always been.
"Can we just transport that batch of medicine tonight?"
"Okay, I'll be ready."
Nalan Jinnian said a few more words: "There are a lot of people tonight, and the Emperor's brother may also come out. Please ask the servants in the house to stay away. And prepare some food."
Wen Nuan was surprised in his heart, but thought that Nalan Jinnian must have invited the emperor to come out and let him watch the medicinal materials being delivered with his own eyes. Everyone felt at ease!
Nuan Nuan nodded: "Okay!"
Nalan Jinnian handed the two books to Wen Nuan again: "The merchant ships that went to sea have returned. I asked them to bring you some books and put them in my warehouse over there. After you have read them, go over and ask Butler Lei to get them. .”
This is an English medical book. Nuan Nuan couldn't help but feel happy after taking a look at it. She had never read these early books from overseas countries. This was a good way to understand the level of medical skills in those overseas countries.
"It's so good! Remember to ask someone to buy more, of all types! Whether it's military, medical, or phone calls..."
"I know, I'll bring back whatever books people see."
Wen Nuan smiled: "That's right!"
Know thyself, ever-victorious!
If you fall behind, you will be beaten. This is a bloody lesson!
No matter what, you need to know more.
Aster had already laid out lunch at this time and invited the two of them to have a meal.
After eating, Nalan Jinnian put down his bowls and chopsticks and stood up: "I'm leaving."
Hearing this, Nuan Nuan stood up and wanted to send him off.
Nalan Jinnian held her shoulders and prevented her from standing up.
He stretched out his hand and rubbed the dark shadow under his warm eyes with his thumb: "It's sunny outside, so there's no need to send him away. Take a good rest."
It's noon now, the sun is shining outside, and it's hot!
There is an ice basin in the house. After eating and drinking, it is the time when people feel sleepy.
Nuan Nuan thought that he had nothing to say, so he nodded: "I will go to sleep in a while."
I’m really sleepy!
Nalan Jinnian touched the top of her head, then turned and walked out.
He had just crossed the threshold with one foot when he thought of something and turned back: "Your cousin should be released in the evening."
Nalan Jinnian specially asked someone to keep her for a while.
Nuan Nuan nodded, indicating that he understood.
Nalan Jinnian strode away.
Nuan Nuan originally wanted Zi Wan to tell Wen Qian about this.
Thinking of Wen Qian's worries, Nuan Nuan personally braved the scorching sun to go to Wen Qian's yard and told her about it.
Wen Qian was so happy that she almost cried when she heard this. She said with red eyes: "Thank God! They are finally released! Has the matter been found out? Is the Duke okay?"
Wen Nuan shook his head: "It's just that Wen Yu admitted that the jade hairpin was given to her third cousin, so she can be brought back, but other things have not been found out yet. We still have to stay in the house and don't run around."
When Wen Qian heard this, she felt relieved again. She held Nuan's hand and said, "We will find out soon!"
Nuan Nuan nodded: "Well, second cousin, don't worry, she will be fine. I have sent someone to pick up third cousin back home in the evening. You should also take a rest!"
Wen Qian's dark circles are also very serious.
Wen Qian wanted to say that she wanted to go pick up Wen Ling, but she swallowed her words as she thought that they had better not go out recently.
It's already troublesome enough for Fourth Uncle and his family, at least we can't cause any more trouble to Nuan Nuan!
At this moment, Wen Ling was locked in a dark room.
Although not a dungeon, this black room is specifically used to hold suspects.
It was dark all around, and you couldn't see your fingers. There was only a small hole the size of a chestnut on one wall. The small hole revealed a ray of light, letting you know whether it was day or night.
Such a house is very depressing. After being locked up here for a few days, people will become neurotic. Generally, prisoners with weak psychological quality will take the truth seriously when asked.
Wen Ling huddled in the corner, closing her eyes and not daring to open them. She didn't care about day or night, just treating it as night. She forced herself to fall asleep, and when she fell asleep, she was not afraid of anything.
Just when Wen Ling thought she was going crazy, she was finally let out!
She swore that once this incident was over, she would return to Ningyuan County and never come to the capital again!
This capital is so scary!
~
Night, diffuse.
There is a citywide curfew tonight.
There are soldiers patrolling every street in the capital.
The watchman was also ordered not to show up.
