The plum house is brightly lit, and the nanmu square table in the middle of the house is already filled with exquisite and hearty dishes.

But there were only two high-ranking chairs beside the table, and there were only two sets of bowls and chopsticks on the table, and there were only two people sitting by the table.

Yang Ji brought up the warm wine, and Yuan Suwen who was waiting on the side poured two glasses of wine with his own hands, and presented them to Liu Xuan and Xiao Pingyi respectively.

Liu Xuan looked at the pure white suet jade jug and shook his head slightly.

This is a two-heart jug, the inside of which is divided into two parts, one half is filled with poisonous wine, and the other half is filled with sake.

As long as you adjust the wine lid, you can control whether it is poisonous wine or sake that is poured out.

Although he has experimented many times, he still has some worries in his heart.

After all, it is a matter of life and death, what if Yuan Su asked wrongly?

Xiao Pingyi's expression was a bit sad, he looked at Yuan Suwen's side face, but his tone was very warm, "Miss Lingshu, ah, I made a mistake, I should call you Madam Liu. Long time no see, Madam has become more and more beautiful."

Yuan Suwen curtsied and took two steps back, "My lord's praise is too much, Lingshu dare not bear it."

Liu Xuan couldn't stand it anymore, and flirted with his wife in front of him, treating him as a dead person?

He picked up the wine glass, stood up, and interrupted their words, "Master Xiao, I toast you."

Only then did Xiao Pingyi withdraw his gaze from Yuan Suwen.

But he didn't do anything else, just sighed softly, "General Liu, this old man is just a white body, not an adult."

Liu Xuan then said: "I'm just a court criminal, not a general."

Xiao Pingyi laughed. He stroked the sparse beard on his chin and pondered for a moment, "General Liu, the catastrophe you said three months ago has really come true. The emperor was very disappointed in me and demoted me to the land of the southern barbarians. There are many insects, miasma, snakes and rats, and the old body can't afford it, so I simply resigned and returned to my hometown."

"Your Excellency is not afraid of the snakes and rats in the south, but because of the long distance, you will not be able to prevent thieves and thieves from stopping, killing and looting?"

Xiao Pingyi raised his short and sparse eyebrows, and admitted honestly, "Yes, too many people think they are chivalrous, and want to use martial arts to break the ban and kill me to make a name for themselves! I am no longer the prime minister of the imperial court, these bandits have less scruples, He will definitely come to take my life. General Liu, you have a fairy dreaming to guide you, can you tell me what to do so that I can avoid this catastrophe?"

Liu Xuan smiled slightly, but did not answer, just raised the wine glass in his hand, "Drink!"

Xiao Pingyi glanced at the two brothers Lin and Lin standing behind him, and one of them understood, and stepped forward to test the wine in the cup with a silver needle.

"My lord, the wine is non-toxic." He looked at the silver needle that hadn't changed color, and replied in a low voice.

Xiao Pingyi nodded slightly, his eyes flicked over the flagon on the table, his eyes paused slightly.

Liu Xuan's heart tightened, and he felt that Xiao Pingyi's eyes were a little strange, as if he had discovered something.

The hand holding the wine glass couldn't help sweating a little, and he almost couldn't hold it anymore. Will he drink this glass of wine?

This man is old and cunning, he can't see his schemes, can he?Even if the alcohol is found to be non-toxic, is he still worried?

Xiao Pingyi squinted his eyes at him, and said in a low voice, "General Liu, don't laugh at me for being greedy for life and fearing death. If I hadn't been so cautious, I wouldn't have survived today."

"It's okay, adults should be careful, but if you don't drink it, the wine will go cold." Liu Xuan clenched his teeth and showed a reluctant smile.

"Of course I want to drink this wine!" Xiao Pingyi picked up the wine glass on the table and slowly moved it to his mouth——

Liu Xuan looked at him eagerly and swallowed nervously.

Bang!

Xiao Pingyi put the wine glass heavily on the table, and sneered, "General Liu, I treated you with sincerity, why did you go to poison the old man!"

Liu Xuan's heart skipped a beat, but his expression remained calm, and he asked calmly, "Why can't I understand what Master Xiao is talking about? Master Xiao, you are my capable minister, so how could I poison you? "

Xiao Pingyi glanced at the pot of wine, then at Liu Xuan, and narrowed his eyes, "If General Liu really has no intention of poisoning me, how dare you drink my glass of wine?"

Liu Xuan lowered his eyelids, hiding the emotions in his eyes.He didn't expect this old thief to be so sensitive!

Sure enough, dealing with such a scheming person is not to be underestimated at all.

Liu Xuan knew that the silver needle would turn black only when it touched sulfide.So he improved the poison so that the silver needle could not detect it.

I thought it would be safe, but I didn't expect that there would be a flaw in the two-hearted pot, and people could see the traces.

It's just... the matter has developed to this point, and he can't afford to run away.

Liu Xuan put down the wine glass in his hand, and pushed forward to Xiao Pingyi, "I really admire Master Xiao's talent in managing the world, and I want Master Xiao to work for me. Since Master Xiao doesn't trust me, alas... that's all, I will go with you You exchange wine glasses and drink your glass of wine, but you don't dare to force adults to use it for me anymore."

Yuan Suwen on the side frowned, stepped forward and pulled his sleeve, "Liu Lang—"

"It's okay." Liu Xuan raised his wine glass, drank it down, and showed Xiao Pingyi the bottom of the glass.

Xiao Pingyi saw that his expression was normal, it was obvious that this was not a glass of poisoned wine, and he immediately regretted it.

He only said that he was too suspicious, so he took the glass of wine that Liu Xuan pushed over, and apologized: "It's an old man who is too careless, he really deserves to die, please forgive me, General!" Then he drank the wine in the glass, showed the glass end.

Liu Xuan frowned, and said in a cold voice: "Lord Xiao, I first went to the capital to see you at the risk of death, and told you about the current catastrophe. If you didn't believe it at the beginning, I don't blame you. But now the catastrophe has passed." Come true, you still don't believe me. I, Liu Xuan, don't need a subject who is always suspicious of the Lord! If that's the case, between you and me, let's stop here!"

With one sleeve on his sleeve, he knocked down all the wine glasses on the table, only to hear a clattering noise, and the aroma of the wine overflowed.

Xiao Pingyi was overwhelmed by his sudden anger, flustered, he didn't want to offend this person, and was about to explain a few words, but Liu Xuan didn't bother to listen, he took Yuan Suwen's hand, and left the room.

"We're leaving like this, will everything be okay?" Yuan Su asked him in a low voice.

Liu Xuan straightened his back, and the expression on his face relaxed, showing no trace of anger.

He whispered, "Take a look back, is there anyone chasing you out?"

"No." Yuan Su asked and glanced back.

"Then hurry up and run!"

Liu Xuan clenched his hand tightly, and Sa Yazi ran wildly along the corridor.Yuan Suwen was staggered by him, and the water-colored skirt flew up like a startled butterfly.

Push open the courtyard door, pass through several hanging flower doors with ease, and arrive at the outer wall of Zhuangzi. There is a side door in the corner.

Liu Xuan stopped in his tracks, leaned against the wall and gasped for breath. After a while, he looked at Yuan Su with bright eyes and asked, "Quickly tell me, are you serious about me?"

In the dark, he couldn't see Yuan Suwen's expression clearly, only heard his soft laughter, "Brother Xuan, you are the best!"

Damn, he's satisfied!

Yuan Suwen leaned into his arms, her body was unusually soft, she wrapped her slender hands around his neck, brought her face close, her breathing was a little short on Liu Xuan's face, and her lips brushed his chin slightly.

"You have too much control over people's hearts, and you can clearly calculate Xiao Pingyi's psychology. You deliberately let me show my flaws and made him suspicious of the two-hearted pot. Unfortunately, he never expected that I would pour the poisoned wine in the pot." in your cup."

Liu Xuan smiled triumphantly, "He was too scared, so he was too cautious, but he didn't know that it was this cautiousness that killed him in the end!"

"Yeah, success is Xiao He, failure is Xiao He...cough cough..." Yuan Suwen coughed twice, and the arm on Liu Xuan's neck suddenly dropped.

"Su Wen!" Liu Xuan hugged him tightly in horror, and touched his face with his hand, which was abnormally cold.

Immediately stretched out a finger to his nose, fortunately, still breathing, but very weak.

Pushing open the side door, Liu Xuan hugged Yuan Suwen out, Yang Ji was already waiting outside in a carriage.

"Brother, what's wrong with sister-in-law?" Yang Ji jumped out of the car.

"It's okay, he's just a little tired and fell asleep." Liu Xuan didn't want to think too badly about the matter, he hugged him in the car and urged Yang Ji to leave quickly.

Now the force and beauty of the three of them have fallen, if Xiao Pingyi sends someone to chase them at this time, no matter whether it is Lin Xiaolin or Youyun Suiying, they will die a thousand times!

Riding the night, the carriage fled Zhuangzi at high speed, and traveled southward along the Huangtu Avenue.

Liu Xuan hugged Yuan Su tightly, his palms were cold, what should I do?What should he do to save Yuan Suwen!

It was because he practiced the secret book "Xiaoyaoyou" that he suffered from physical weakness and hemoptysis. Occasionally, it was a sign of madness, and he lost his mind.

"Success is Xiao He's failure is Xiao He..." The words Yuan Suwen said before fainting, like a prophecy, were deeply nailed into Liu Xuan's heart, making his heart ache.

Yuan Suwen was able to have such profound internal strength and force at such a young age because of that secret book.

But his body couldn't bear this powerful internal force at all, he couldn't move freely, his meridians were blocked, and he could only kill himself in the end!

For such mysterious and mysterious things as martial arts, Liu Xuan really understood all six of his senses - he didn't know anything about it.

However, in the past three months, he was able to check a page of the plot every night, and knew some great secrets in the world.

At first, he was concerned about Yuan Suwen's life experience.

Different from Yuan Xiaozhi, his younger brother Yuan Yinzhi was a frail scholar. He was selected as a scholar, and knowing that he would fail the exam again, he found a position in the academy and became a teacher.

Nan Jinping learned most of the medical skills and pharmacy of his adoptive father and adoptive mother, and opened a pharmacy to treat diseases for the people of Musu for free.

But they always need money to live, and Yuan Yinzhi's salary can't support the expenses of the pharmacy at all.

Nan Jinping inevitably followed the old path of his parents, producing and selling drugs!

Her attainments in drug making are higher than that of the holy old man Xing and the old woman, and she has developed many extremely poisonous drugs.

And these poisons, she often gave them an extremely beautiful name.

Like Tanabata snow, she once went to a small island in the south with her parents and made it with the unique Tanabata flowers on it.

Qixi flowers, flowers bloom on Qixi Festival, change color overnight, and wither after Qixi.

And those who get caught in the Qixi snow, just like the Qixi flower, only have the lifespan of Qixi.

There is also a blind poison called Leng Xiangning, the poisoned person will go limp and completely lose their mobility.

This poison is especially useful against those with high martial arts skills!

And it was this cold fragrance that caused Nan Jinping's death.

That year, Yuan Suwen was only eight years old.

"Hmm...Brother Xuan, I'm in so much pain..." Yuan Su asked ramblingly.

Liu Xuan immediately came back to his senses, gently touched his face, his voice was so gentle, "Where does it hurt? Let me rub it for you, okay?"

Yuan Suwen frowned beautifully, "Mom...I miss you so much..."

A tear slipped from the corner of his closed eye, cold Liu Xuan's fingers.

Liu Xuan suffocated for breath, and his heart ached beyond measure.

He remembered that when Nan Jinping and Yuan Yinzhi died, Yuan Suwen was only eight years old, how did he face the death of both his parents?

At that time, did he already know what death meant?

Moreover, it has only been eight years since that incident.

Yuan Suwen is only 16 years old now. He is a very delicate person, and he is more sensitive to pain than ordinary people.

Although Yuan Xiaozhi gave him a rich and stable life, he couldn't take care of his delicate and gentle heart at all.

Yuan Suwen knew that it was shameful and absurd for him to like dressing up as a woman, and he also wanted to be the upstanding man Yuan Xiaozhi asked him to be.

But his heart is longing for those beautiful dresses and fragrant rouge.

The principles of reality and the desire in his heart pulled him repeatedly, tearing his already fragile heart apart and then re-collaging and reassembling it into a distorted and broken heart that would never be perfect again.

This is why he loves Liu Xuan so persistently, so strong, yet so humble.

"Brother Xuan, even if you lied to me, I will..."

Liu Xuan hugged him tightly, as if hugging the most precious treasure in the world.

This was the first time, and he looked forward to the dawn.

"Yang Ji, go to the Eight Great Wildernesses!" He finally thought of how to delay Yuan Suwen's life.

Even if there are swords and blood, mountains of swords and seas of fire, even if hope is always slim, he will go.
