After rebirth, she became the favorite of the powerful minister.
Chapter 262: A Weak Horse in the Stable
Qin Yongpei would never believe that Yuan Ge was not dead.
With so many people in Zhixuan Mountain, it would be too difficult to forge a corpse in public. Moreover, there was Yuan Qi who was bedridden and could not stand being frightened. Yuan Ge would not and did not dare to take such a risk.
Therefore, the truth that Jinsu almost pointed out was just ignored by Qin Yongpei as crazy talk.
And Yuan Ge himself had no idea about the "Nine-Turn Heartbreaking Powder", and he almost scared Jin Su to the point of going insane - in the cold and long first half of Jin Su's life, the only warmth she felt was brought to her by Yuan Ge, so she could justifiably resent everyone, and even believed that she did not owe Yuan Qi anything, except Yuan Ge... In the softest part of her heart that was blocked by layers of barriers, he could not be touched or spoken to, and just his name could make her lose her mind.
Not to mention the idea that "Yuan Ge is not dead at all, and is even watching her in a corner beside her", it would be crazy.
Miss Yuan looked pale after drinking the "calming soup" these days. Song Wenyuan obviously noticed something was wrong. Although Shiyin was also worried that his young lady didn't drink anything good, he kept the secret to himself and only said that the young lady might have been tired a while ago and hasn't recovered yet - this statement was almost always true with Song Wenyuan.
When Lord Song heard this, he felt so guilty that he couldn't even think about anything else.
Miss Yuan practiced her inner strength without any danger, almost without sleep, day after day, even though all the people in the know disapproved but tacitly allowed her to do as she pleased.
Song Wenyuan's arrow wound had almost healed. The explanation given by the prefect of Jingzhao for the stabbing of the imperial official in Xishi was that the criminal was seeking revenge. It was said that the criminal had committed a crime in his early years and was caught by Lord Song, and was sent to Jingzhao Prefecture. He was recently released after serving his sentence. Who would have thought that the criminal not only did not reform himself, but even held a grudge and injured people in the street. Fortunately, Lord Song was a martial arts master and only suffered some superficial injuries, while the criminals were completely wiped out, which was considered to be what they deserved.
The martial arts master Song stayed at home for nearly ten days to recover from his skin wounds. Then, he changed his black clothes style and wore a white dress with a fur collar and a long cloak. He went to the palace with a sickly look to report to His Majesty that he was safe. He also handed in a letter of resignation in a pretentious manner. In the letter, he expressed his current situation that he was poisoned and was not suitable to lead the Northern Pacification Division anymore, and was unable to help His Majesty solve problems. He also sighed that he had great ambitions but was already a weak horse in the stable. Finally, he was thankful that God had blessed His Majesty and protected his wife from being injured, otherwise he would have failed His Majesty and Minister Wen’s trust...
In a word, this job is too dangerous and I don't want to do it anymore.
Of course, His Majesty would never agree to this. In order to appease the upset minister, His Majesty waved his hand and sent a steady stream of rewards to the Kejing Marquis's residence. He also granted Song Wenyuan a leave to recuperate and return to court whenever he felt rested. So, Lord Song reluctantly agreed to continue to serve His Majesty with this "injured body with unparalleled martial arts skills".
It was just a conversation that happened in the imperial study, but somehow it spread like wildfire - the news that Lord Song, who had only suffered some minor injuries, was actually poisoned became a secret that was kept secret in the court and the country, but was known to everyone.
I heard that His Majesty was furious and ordered a thorough investigation of the young eunuch who was on duty in the Imperial Study that day. After much investigation, they found out that a young eunuch had just been transferred there two months ago. He had previously worked in the Ministry of Internal Affairs and was transferred to the Imperial Study because he was a capable person. Unexpectedly, he committed a crime as soon as he arrived. For this, all the people involved were fined their monthly salary. As for that young eunuch... naturally, there was no trace of him afterwards.
That night, a little maid in the Queen's palace was beaten with ten boards and died because she broke the Queen's favorite hairpin given to her by the emperor.
The servants in the palace were doing jobs that required them to work hard. The closer they were to the nobles, the more glorious their jobs seemed. But if they made a mistake, or if the nobles were in a bad mood, they would be dead. This was a common thing in the palace. But the servants who knew some secrets noticed something was wrong. That palace maid and the young eunuch who had just been transferred to the imperial study were a couple. I heard that they had been together for a short time. If you think about it, it was something that happened during the time when she was transferred to the imperial study. You can’t investigate it further. You can’t investigate it further!
……
The news of Lord Song's poisoning gradually evolved from "Song Wenyuan was poisoned" to "Song Wenyuan is probably not going to live long" through word of mouth, with the saying "I tell you, you can't tell anyone else".
Lord Song, who had not much time left, was leisurely enjoying the long vacation of his life in Luofengxuan. He basked in the sun, amused Wen Xiaobai, bullied the stupid bird that could only bark like a dog, and finally cultivated his relationship with his wife. He was truly free and comfortable.
Only a few days of these carefree days had passed when Wen Peiji brought news about Purple-Leafed Polygonum multiflorum.
Purple-leaf Polygonum multiflorum, another medicinal ingredient that Song Wenyuan needs.
According to Wen Peiji, a wealthy businessman came to the city recently and went door to door in large medical clinics asking if they wanted to purchase precious medicinal materials. He offered a very high price, but his behavior was rather secretive and it didn't seem like the goods came from a legitimate source, so most legitimate medical clinics with their own channels ignored him until he came to Wen Peiji, who saw purple-leaf Polygonum multiflorum among the few medicinal materials available.
"I have secured the person first, but I don't like the way he speaks and does things. He has shifty eyes and doesn't seem like a serious businessman. He also offers a high price and seems to be profit-driven. You should always be more careful when doing business with such a person, so as not to end up losing both money and goods... If you really want to buy, I will go with you. I am always more experienced than you in this regard."
Yuan Ge did not refuse, "You can make an appointment with him and buy it in the name of your pharmacy."
"Okay." Wen Peiji replied, frowning and asking her, "What's wrong with your face? Are you sick?"
"No, I just couldn't sleep well. Maybe I was frightened by the assassination in Xishi." Yuan Ge explained the explanation to the outside world again, and then said, "It's okay. Xu Chengjin prescribed a tranquilizer. I've been drinking it these two days, and I'm obviously much better."
Wen Peiji twitched his lips. If he didn't know the identity of the person in front of him, it would be fine. But now that he knew, could he still believe these nonsense? Yuan Getian had the courage to stab him, but he was scared and couldn't sleep because of a near-miss assassination? He still needed Xu Chengjin to prescribe tranquilizers? But since the other party didn't say anything, he couldn't say too much. He just nodded as if he believed it, and advised in a gentle voice, "Medicine is just a supplement after all, you still have to be at ease."
"Yeah. I know." Yuan Ge grinned and asked, "Have elder brother and elder sister-in-law reconciled?" She was extremely gossipy and looked like a fox. How could she look like she was frightened and needed to take tranquilizers?
