The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs
Chapter 224 With power and wealth in hand, what else matters?
Upon hearing this, Shen Qinglan smiled, stood up and walked to the boxes of silver, took out a few ingots at random and threw them to Shuyu.
After Shuyu caught it in a panic, Shen Qinglan asked, "I gave it to you. Are you happy?"
Shuyu held the silver in his arms, at least fifty taels!
She was Shen Qinglan's personal maid, so naturally she had a lot of monthly salary.
However, fifty taels was a considerable income for her, so how could she not be happy?
"I'm happy...but they can't be confused with each other?" Shu Yu said with a pout.
Shen Qinglan smiled, took out a few more ingots of silver and stuffed them into her hands, and asked, "So?"
Shuyu couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth, coughed, and said righteously:
"Shuyu understands! The ambition of a young lady is not to compete for favor in the cold backyard! Only what is in your hands is real!"
Shen Qinglan looked at Shuyu's righteous look at this moment and was amused. She couldn't help but pinch her cheek and said:
"I have seen Chu Yingyue before. She is not the type who is restless. There is no need to worry about any trouble if she is accepted into the mansion."
Shen Qinglan is not stupid, there is no way he would bring trouble upon himself.
It's man's nature, sooner or later.
She took the initiative, so the War King must remember her kindness.
Anyway, as long as I have power and wealth, what else does it matter?
only……
I originally thought that Huo Zhanting would be different from others, but now it seems that there is no difference between men in the world.
When Huo Zhanting heard Ren Wei's reply, he was sitting in a wheelchair, holding a carving knife and carving something on a piece of wood.
Although his hands could move freely these days, they were still somewhat weak and not as dexterous as before.
After such a short while, he cut his hands and left several bloody marks.
When Ren Wei came back, he saw Huo Zhanting sitting by the window, staring intently at the thing in his hand.
"Master! How did your hand get injured like this? Put it down quickly, and let me treat your injury!"
Ren Wei was startled and hurried forward, trying to snatch the carving knife from Huo Zhanting's hand.
Huo Zhanting avoided Ren Wei and just raised his eyes slightly and said:
"Did you give the things to the princess?"
"I have given it to you, Master..."
"No problem. I'm new to this skill, so it's good to practice a little."
Huo Zhanting spoke in a gentle voice, with a hint of disappointment and loss in his eyes.
He, a god of war, was invincible on the battlefield, but at this moment, he was just carving a small object and made himself look miserable.
Huo Zhanting pursed his lips, then asked Ren Wei, "Is there any news from the Ministry of Justice?"
Although Ren Wei felt sorry for Huo Zhanting, he also knew Huo Zhanting's personality and that he was not someone who would be easily influenced by others. He could only sigh and said:
"Zhao Fenglin and Zhao Chuan have also been transferred to the Ministry of Justice. Zhao Fenglin has confessed everything about the purchase of the Acacia Heartbreak Powder, and in order to protect Zhao Chuan, he promised to directly testify against Zhao Chunlan."
"But, there is one thing that is a little strange..."
"What's the matter?"
Huo Zhanting paused with the carving knife in his hand and looked up at Ren Wei.
Ren Wei pursed his lips and then explained, "It has been a long time since the princess's biological mother was poisoned. The doctors who examined her pulse should have known about her health problems, but no one reminded her."
"These doctors have been silenced, but Zhao Fenglin refuses to admit that they did it. I suspect that Zhao Chunlan may have other helpers."
Upon hearing this, Huo Zhanting leaned slightly on the back of his wheelchair, his eyes narrowed slightly.
Zhao Chunlan only has the Zhao family behind her. If she wanted to enter the Marquis' Mansion back then, she could only rely on the Zhao family.
Although the Jing'an Marquis Mansion has declined, no matter how declining it is, it is still far from the Zhao family's merchant family.
If the Zhao family wants to keep their business going for a long time, they must find a noble family to rely on.
The Zhao family could not get close to other nobles, but the Jing'an Marquis Mansion was the most suitable.
Therefore, they will definitely clear the obstacles for Zhao Chunlan.
Therefore, it is unlikely that there may be other forces around Zhao Chunlan.
Huo Zhanting felt that he seemed to have grasped something vaguely, but when he thought about it carefully, it seemed ethereal.
Unable to figure it out, Huo Zhanting simply stopped thinking about it and just remained silent for a while before asking, "When will the person sent to pick up Jinlan return?"
"It should be possible tonight."
"When Jinlan arrives, she will be sent to the princess's courtyard. There are some things that the princess should want to know first."
"Yes!"
That night.
Huo Zhanting was already sitting in a wheelchair. After watching Shen Qinglan finish her acupuncture massage for him, Huo Zhanting spoke:
"Thank you for Chu Yingyue's matter."
Shen Qinglan put away the acupuncture bag and smiled faintly, "It's okay, it's all part of my job."
Huo Zhanting's heart softened slightly, and then he took a wooden box from the side and handed it to Shen Qinglan, saying:
"This is for you."
Shen Qinglan was slightly stunned, but did not refuse. After taking it, he opened it directly. Immediately, his eyes lit up.
There was a very small and exquisite sleeve arrow lying in the wooden box.
After Shen Qinglan picked up the sleeve arrow, he saw a line of small words engraved on the sleeve arrow: "Qinglan comes in before night, and white dews form before autumn."
She was slightly stunned and felt a little surprised. Her name came from here. How could Huo Zhanting know it?
Shen Qinglan looked up at Huo Zhanting in surprise and asked, "Did you carve this yourself?"
Huo Zhanting saw the flash of joy in Shen Qinglan's eyes and knew that she liked this gift. He was relieved and explained:
"I saw you use the bow very well that day, but the bow is inconvenient after all. If you were in danger, I'm afraid it wouldn't be able to protect you, so I thought of making a lightweight sleeve arrow for you."
After a pause, Huo Zhanting waved at Shen Qinglan again. Shen Qinglan sat on the chair next to him and handed the sleeve arrow to Huo Zhanting.
Huo Zhanting picked up the sleeve arrow and gestured:
"Women's strength is weak, so I have specially improved it so that I can take someone's life without any effort."
"And here, this place is also designed with a small cabin that can be used to store poisonous smoke to avoid danger."
"Furthermore, the arrows here are also very particular. There are ten in total, and three of them are large arrows with needles. If you encounter an opponent with good reach, you can use the real and fake arrows to divert the opponent's attention and make him underestimate you."
No one would have thought that this small arrow in the sleeve actually contained several fine needles, which would surely make people underestimate the enemy!
As long as the opponent underestimates you, the fine needle in the arrow will come into play, and even an expert will be hit!
At this point, Huo Zhanting seemed to have thought of something and suggested seriously:
"You are a doctor, and you must know poison. You can develop some poison and apply it on the poison needle to ensure it is foolproof."
Shen Qinglan listened to Huo Zhanting's words, but felt a little dazed.
