After the system ran, I took off with my family

Chapter 286 Songfeng Pavilion (2 chapters merged into 1 chapter)

Ye Han searched in his mind.

"Honghe Tower? If I remember correctly, it should be the property of the younger brother of the second young master's wife of the Duke of Ying."

"What happened?"

Otherwise, why would Miss Lin come to visit so late at night?

Lin Shuyue's face became serious. "Master Ye, someone told me that the shopkeeper Wu of Honghe Tower was collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, and that they saw him meeting with the Turks with their own eyes."

"What?" Ye Han stood up, his face cold, "Who told Miss Lin? Is this true?"

"Yes." Lin Shuyue nodded, "It's absolutely true."

"Where is that person? Can Ye talk to him in person?"

Ye Han's expression became more and more stern. If this was true, too many people would be involved. The first to bear the brunt would be the Duke of Yingguo's Mansion, and even the Queen Mother in the palace could not escape the blame.

"Master Ye, that person is quite special. You can meet him, but you must promise not to expose him."

A big reason why Lin Shuyue got involved in this matter was that she couldn't bear to let Tiansheng lose his life.

Once the matter comes to light, Tiansheng, the witness, will definitely have to come forward to testify. However, as long as the culprit is not dead, his life will be in danger at any time.

Ye Han looked down at Lin Shuyue for a few times, and finally nodded in agreement.

When Qianye came back excitedly with the green plum soup, Lin Shuyue was no longer in the study.

"My Lord, where is Miss Lin?"

Ye Han sat behind the desk and continued to read the letter he had not finished reading. He did not even raise his head and said, "I am leaving."

"Leaving? Why are you leaving so fast?" Qianye looked at his master suspiciously, "Master, could it be that you made Miss Lin angry?"

"roll!"

"Okay, I'll get out of here right now." After walking a few steps, he thought of the green plum soup in his hand and turned back: "This green plum soup..."

“You ate it.”

"Fine..."

The next day, Lin Shuyue took Qinghe and Qingzhi to the front yard. As soon as they passed through the hanging flower gate, she saw Tiansheng and the remaining five children running around the open space in the front yard.

"This is?"

"Miss."

Qingsheng came over, bowed, and explained, "Those kids saw me practicing martial arts this morning, and they begged me to teach them.

However, I told them that this matter requires your consent, so let them go for a run first, or they can exercise their bodies.”

"Do you want to teach them?" Lin Shuyue asked, looking into Qingsheng's eyes.

"Little one..." Qingsheng looked at the group of children who were running and sweating but still persisting, and his heart was moved for a moment.

Lin Shuyue could see his excitement, thought about it, and nodded, "If you want to teach me, then I'll teach you. However, there is one thing you have to control yourself about what you should and shouldn't teach."

Qingsheng originally only knew how to fight, but after using the loyalty talisman, she taught him the sword skills and internal energy techniques that her father and brothers had learned.

Qing Sheng happily assured immediately: "Miss, don't worry, I will only teach them some boxing techniques for self-defense."

With some martial arts skills, these children will be able to protect themselves when they return to the dilapidated temple, unlike in the past when the things they begged for with great difficulty were snatched away by other beggars.

Qingsheng turned around and called the children over and told them what happened. Tiansheng and the others jumped up excitedly and shouted happily, "Thank you Sister Ayue, thank you Brother Qingsheng!"

Seeing the children's excitement, Lin Shuyue was also very happy. "Okay, if you want to learn, you must study hard and not be lazy. Do you hear me?"

Tiansheng and the others nodded vigorously, "Got it, Sister Yue."

"Okay, let's go."

After Lin Shuyue asked Qingsheng to take the children back to the open space, she went into the flower hall to have breakfast.

Qinghe spoke with a smile on her face about the performance of the children in the morning.

"Miss, those kids are really good. They got up early this morning, washed up, and rushed to help Qiuxia and Qiulu sweep the floor, water the flowers, and clean the windows...

Qiuxia and Qiulu couldn't be stopped, and they are still worried about being punished by you, young lady.

The little guy on the stool kicked his legs and went to the kitchen, saying he wanted to help light the fire, and Mrs. Liu couldn't drive him away.

Lin Shuyue took the handkerchief handed over by Qingzhi and wiped her mouth, then smiled and said, "Well, let's wait and see. By the way, tell Qiuxia, Qiulu and Liu Pozi not to stop them. If those children want to help, let them help."

After thinking for a while, he added, "Qinghe, tell them in person that those children can help, but they must not forget their duties."

"Yes, ma'am."

Time passed quickly and it was noon. In the private room on the second floor of Songfeng Pavilion, Lin Shuyue gently patted Tiansheng's shoulder, signaling him not to be nervous.

Ye Han put away the aura that he had unconsciously released, and with a smile on his face, he nodded and pushed a plate in front of him, and said in a gentle voice: "Don't be nervous, Miss Lin is Ye's savior, Ye promised Miss Lin that he would protect you, can you tell me what you saw and heard?"

Tiansheng looked up cautiously at Ye Han who was smiling, then looked down at the snacks in front of him. He finally relaxed a little and stammered out what he had seen and heard that night.

Lin Shuyue walked to the window and looked at the Honghe Tower across the street and fell into deep thought.

She remembered what Ye Han said last night. He said that Honghe Tower was the property of the second young master's brother-in-law of the Duke of Yingguo's Mansion. However, the Duke of Yingguo's Mansion was the Empress' maiden family, the in-laws of the current emperor. With such a backer, anyone with a brain should not do anything like treason and collude with the enemy.

However, there is another possibility, that is, the real master of Shopkeeper Wu is someone else. No matter whether Shopkeeper Wu was bribed later or Shopkeeper Wu himself was planted by someone else, the person behind the scenes is despicable.

Back at the table, Tiansheng had told him everything he knew, while Ye Han was looking at the cup of tea in his hand, wondering what he was thinking.

Lin Shuyue sat next to Tiansheng, thinking of what Madam Qin had said before, and asked curiously: "Master Ye, I heard that there are often Turks harassing the northern border recently?"

Ye Han regained consciousness and nodded slightly when he heard her question. "Yes, the emperor received a memorial from General Tang a few days ago. General Tang said that the Turks were cunning and cruel. They came quickly and left quickly every time. They would run away after stealing the food. They were really hateful."

After that, he sneered and said, “Your Majesty and several ministers have been wondering why those Turks suddenly looted the border villages now. Now it seems that it was because of the severe snowstorm on the grassland last year, which caused their cattle and sheep to freeze to death and they had no food.

But there are always those who don’t know how to live or die and are stupid enough to provide food to the Turks, allowing them to survive the snowstorm. After the snow melted at the beginning of the year, they had the strength to rob the people on the border of the Great Zhou Dynasty.”

This person must be very powerful since he was able to transport grain to the Turks without telling the Zhenbei Army.

"But if there was a snowstorm on the grassland, why didn't the news reach Da Zhou?"

Lin Shuyue was a little puzzled. People in other places didn’t know, so how could the Zhenbei Army guarding the border not know?

......

Chapter 287 Seeking Medicine

Ye Han sighed. He didn't understand why General Tang didn't mention the snow disaster in his monthly memorials. Did he think it was unimportant? Or did he have other ideas?

He believed that General Tang must have known that when the grasslands were hit by snowstorms, the cattle and sheep froze to death, and there was no food, those barbaric Turks would definitely target the Great Zhou.

Seeing that Ye Han did not answer this question, Lin Shuyue did not know how to ask further. She just suddenly thought of the Youmenglan mentioned by Shopkeeper Wu, and asked Ye Han curiously if he knew what flower it was. It had a nice name.

She has been in Da Zhou for two years, and this is the first time she has heard the name of this flower.

Ye Han lowered his eyes slightly, and a cold light flashed in his deep eyes.

"The Youmeng Orchid is a poisonous flower from deep in the grassland. Its flowers are dark blue, mysterious and elegant, making people unable to take their eyes away.

But people don’t know that after this flower blooms, the fragrance it emits will make people gradually weak if they smell it for a long time, and they will lose their appetite and drink until they die of exhaustion of qi and blood. Even the best doctors cannot figure out the cause.”

Lin Shuyue couldn't help but smack her lips after hearing this. "Sure enough, the more beautiful things are, the more dangerous they are. I just don't know who the master behind Shopkeeper Wu is using them to plot against."

Ye Han's eyebrows jumped. He knew who they were targeting. It was the Empress in the palace, or the Crown Prince's lineage.

After finding Doctor Mu that day, he brought Doctor Mu quietly into the palace the next day. When Doctor Mu saw the weak Empress lying on the couch, he said bluntly that the Empress was poisoned, and the culprit of the poisoning was the pot of flowers on the antique shelf.

This flower is the Youmeng Orchid, a poisonous flower that grows deep in the grassland.

Fortunately, Doctor Mu had been to the grassland and had the honor of seeing the Youmeng Orchid deep in the grassland. He even lived in the grassland for half a year just to study the toxicity of the Youmeng Orchid.

After half a year of research, Doctor Mu finally developed the antidote and put it in the small medicine box he carried with him.

Less than half an hour after taking the antidote, the Queen's condition improved significantly, her consciousness gradually became clearer, and she even talked with the Emperor for a while.

However, His Majesty sealed off Jingyang Palace before detoxifying the queen. How did the person behind the scenes know that the queen's poison had been cured?

It seems that there are still some fish that slip through the net!

Although the Queen's poison has been cured now, the toxicity of the Youmeng Orchid is too overbearing. The damage it causes to the body is irreversible. Even Doctor Mu is helpless and can only prescribe a prescription to replenish qi and blood.

However, before leaving, Doctor Mu gave the emperor a suggestion. She said that the emperor could send people to ask the old sects in the martial arts world. Some of the ancient sects still have a lot of good things, even rare treasures.

Thinking of this, he looked at Lin Shuyue. Miss Lin was so young, but her martial arts were so powerful. Her master must be an expert. He just didn't know whether Miss Lin or her master had these things.

"Master Ye?"

Lin Shuyue didn't understand why Ye Han was looking at her like that.

"I'm sorry, Ye is rude."

Ye Han looked a little embarrassed, but after hesitating for a moment, he still asked Lin Shuyue the question he had just thought of.

"Treasures of heaven and earth?"

Lin Shuyue looked at him calmly, "May I ask what Lord Ye wants to do with this natural treasure?"

Ye Han looked at her expression and seeing that she looked indifferent, he had no choice but to tell her that the Queen had been poisoned.

The one who was poisoned was the Queen?

Lin Shuyue was a little shocked and a little surprised at the same time. The person behind the scenes was so scheming, how could the person he was scheming be an ordinary person?

If this is the case, then the person behind Manager Wu can be ruled out as the owner of Honghe Tower.

As for the Queen's health, a pill of Yangrong Pill would be enough to solve the problem, but she couldn't give the pill away so easily.

After thinking for a moment, she looked directly into Ye Han's eyes and said softly, "Master Ye, to be honest, my master does have medicine that can cure the Queen's body, and it works immediately."

"Really?" Ye Han straightened his back immediately after hearing that. He didn't expect that Miss Lin's master really had medicine.

"Well, I never tell lies, but..."

Lin Shuyue changed her tone and said with some embarrassment: "My master has a stubborn temper and is stingy. He treasures the good things in his hands very much. It may not be easy to get him to give out the medicine."

Ye Han was slightly stunned, then said solemnly: "Miss Lin, can you send a message to your master? Ask your master what conditions are required for him to be willing to give you this medicine. I will report to the emperor and try my best to meet your master's requirements."

"Okay, I will send a message to Master, and Lord Ye can also report the situation to the Emperor first."

Lin Shuyue nodded readily in agreement, not worrying at all that the emperor would be angry.

To be honest, she has always been grateful that she traveled through to an imaginary dynasty, where the underworld and the imperial court did not interfere with each other, unlike those dynasties in history, where the whole world belonged to the king and even the underworld people were subject to the constraints of the imperial court.

As for whether the emperor would be angry with the Lin family because she did not obediently offer the medicine with both hands, Lin Shuyue said she didn't care.

If it really comes to that, she is not afraid. At worst, she can use the loyalty talisman on the person in the palace.

Of course, she had no intention of rebelling. She just wanted the emperor to not make things difficult for the Lin family so that he could continue to be the emperor normally.

In the private room, the happy Ye Han didn't know that the smiling girl opposite him was thinking about something extremely outrageous.

He was thinking about the matter of Honghe Tower, so he stood up and bowed, saying, "Miss Lin, Ye will have someone investigate the matter of Honghe Tower. You should not make it public, and Tiansheng should try not to go out recently."

"Okay, please, Master Ye."

Lin Shuyue nodded, then took Tiansheng's hand and prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, just as they reached the door, Tiansheng broke free from her hand, turned around and ran to Ye Han.

Looking at the tall Ye Han, he swallowed nervously and asked carefully: "Master Ye, if the bad guys in Honghe Tower are caught, can Honghe Tower be sold to Sister Ayue? Sister Ayue wants to open a restaurant, but has not found a suitable shop."

Lin Shuyue, who was standing at the door, and Ye Han, who was sitting on the chair, were both stunned.

Ye Han's deep eyes sized up the boy who looked up at him stubbornly, obviously scared. He chuckled and said, "I can't guarantee that this restaurant will be sold to the public, but I can guarantee that if it is sold, I will notify Miss Lin immediately."

"Thank you, Master Ye."

Tiansheng breathed a sigh of relief and his little face flushed.

Lin Shuyue took Tiansheng downstairs without saying a word and left Songfeng Pavilion.

After getting on the carriage, she looked at Tian Sheng, who was obviously much happier, sitting opposite her with a complicated expression.

"Tian Sheng, you suddenly decided to expose the matter of Honghelou. Is it to find a restaurant for me?"

Tiansheng nodded vigorously, looking at her with bright eyes: "Well, sister Yue, since we have received your money, we must do what you asked us to do. My father said that we must do what we promised to others.

But because we have been running around the outer city for three days and haven't seen any restaurants for sale, I thought of Honghelou. If the owner of Honghelou is arrested, Honghelou will definitely close, and then Sister Yue will be able to buy it."
