Sir, I can do it!

Dongfang was already pale. Wei Zhaoku sat in front of the window and didn't close his eyes all night.

Huo Bao'er looked worried, and tried to persuade him: "Master, Master Yuan's condition has stabilized, and he will be fine when the elder grandson prepares the antidote. It is dawn now, no matter what, I need to sleep for a while. The young master has not slept all night. , what can be done if the body is broken by the boil."

Wei Zhao pushed open the window, and the crisp air poured in. He raised his head slightly, breathing in the purest morning breath.Limbs and bones seemed to pour into a clear spring in an instant, sweeping away the gloom and gloom in my heart.

"Master Changsun said that only the strong can make rules in this world, while the weak can only be slaughtered."

"What can't be cut? Bao'er doesn't understand." Huo Bao'er stepped forward and touched Tan Weizhao's forehead with his palm, and muttered, "Master, you don't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense again?"

Wei Zhao stood up, supported the window sill with both hands, leaned half of his body out of the window, roared violently, Huo Bao'er was so frightened that he trembled all over, and cried, "Master, what's wrong with you!"

Wei Zhao retreated, raised his hand and patted Huo Bao'er's shoulder, and said with a smile, "Your young master, I'm fine, I've never been sober like today. Okay, go fetch water for my young master, and ask the kitchen to prepare breakfast. Get out in a hurry."

"Ah? Young master, it's not yet time..."

"If you're told to go, go quickly. Believe it or not, my young master won't take you out."

Huo Bo'er hurriedly shut up and slipped out.

Wei Zhao turned around and continued to stare at the hazy sky.A few remnant stars fell stubbornly, exuding insignificant light.The light of dawn breaks through the clouds, opening a gap in the silver-grey sky, and the sun is just twilight. Although the real face has not been revealed, the earth already smells of burning.

The peach blossom eyes under Wei Zhao's black eyebrows narrowed slightly, reflecting the blood-red morning light, shining brightly.

"I want to protect my family, so I want to be strong."

The carriage of Zhen Guohou's Mansion arrived at the Yamen of Nanfu on the first ray of sunshine.Changsun Ke was already waiting in the front hall, with a simple blue and white porcelain vase by his hand.

"I thought I was already very early, but I didn't expect that the elder grandson was earlier than me."

Wei Zhao walked up to pick up the porcelain bottle and looked at it for a while, then pulled out the cork, and the smell immediately wafted into his nostrils.

"Is this the antidote?"

"Well, dissolve the pill in the bottle with warm water, take it once a day after breakfast, and take it for three days to detoxify."

Wei Zhao accepted the antidote, and solemnly bowed to Changsun Ke: "Master Changsun saved my nephew's life, Zhaoming feels deeply."

"It's just a little effort, you don't have to."

Wei Zhao still didn't get up, he bowed to the bottom, and said respectfully, "Zhao has one more thing to ask."

"speak."

"I want to learn the art of poison with Master Changsun as my teacher."

"I don't accept disciples."

"Master grandson, listen to me..."

"Young Master Wei, you can learn anytime you want, you don't need to be a teacher."

"……what?!"

Is that a promise? ?

Wei Zhao was in doubt, and cautiously asked: "Master Changsun, you are not lying to me, are you?"

"I'm not that carefree."

Wei Zhao had a stomach full of words, thinking that he would convince this person no matter what, but he agreed without saying anything.Emotions are running high and need to be released.But when he suddenly achieved his goal, his full emotions suddenly became unsteady, like a stick in his throat.

"My eldest grandson always agrees so happily every time, it makes me a little bit at a loss."

Changsun Ke glanced at him, and said indifferently: "It's not that I have plans for Mr. Wei, so it would be easier to achieve the goal by giving Mr. Wei some small favors before that."

"I don't know what this young master has that is worthy of my eldest grandson's scheme."

"You will know it slowly, and it will be boring to say it."

"...Okay, but no matter what, I still thank my eldest grandson."

Wei Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, and bowed to the end again.

Changsun Ke nodded: "Come with me."

Wei Zhao followed obediently until he reached the East Courtyard of the Nanfu, when he suddenly let out a 'huh', and suddenly remembered that he was in this courtyard when he was locked up in the Nanfu.On the second day, Changsun Ke let him go home, didn't he go out from this path!

The courtyards in Nanfu are similar, even the flowers and plants planted and the artificial stones piled up are all very similar in shape.If people from outside the house come in, they will definitely lose their way.Wei Zhao came to Nanfu a few times, at most he walked from the main courtyard to the morgue in the backyard.

The reason why the difference between the east courtyard and other places can be recognized at a glance is that there are deep and shallow sword marks on the surrounding walls of the east courtyard.

Go a few steps further and you will arrive at the East Courthouse.Wei Zhao pointed to the room in the middle and said, "Is that my room?"

Changsun Ke said 'hmm' and added: "That's my room."

"Your room?!" Wei Zhao was obviously very surprised: "I said that you are a dignified supervisor of the Southern Mansion after all, and the place you live in is too shabby. Alas, my son has a different garden in the west of the city. Tomorrow I will call Huo Baoer sent the house deed..."

"It's just a place to sleep."

Pushing open the door, the furnishings in the house are just as they were seen that day, the house is spotless and deserted everywhere.

Changsun Ke went to the suitcase, opened the suitcase, and took out a book from under the folded clothes.

Wei Zhao opened his mouth, thinking that he had opened the box that day, so why didn't he have the patience to look through it again.

"This is the "Book of Medicinal Medicine". If you want to learn poison techniques, you must first start by knowing the herbs. When will Mr. Wei memorize the basics of the herbs, their properties, and the growth environment, and when will you learn later? .”

Wei Zhao took the "Book of Medicine" with both hands, flipped through it, and then said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Changsun, I will memorize all the herbs within ten days."

Changsun Ke glanced at him: "Ten days? Isn't Mr. Wei still investigating the Meiyuan case?"

"Eh... the case is of course to be investigated, but the schoolwork will never be delayed."

"I would like to advise Mr. Wei not to make too much of a fuss. I don't like capricious people the most. Once I say it for ten days, I can't change it. If Mr. Wei does not do it for ten days, don't blame me for cruel punishment."

"There is still punishment?!"

"What? If Mr. Wei can't recite the passages when he is studying, don't you know how to use a ruler?"

"Mister does have a ruler, but Ah Liang is the one who gets beaten the most. I'm born smart, but I've never been scolded by my husband."

"Oh?"

"Your grandson, don't underestimate me. The result will be known in ten days. If I don't do it, how will I be punished by my grandson. Of course, if I do it... My grandson must also do something to me .”

"it is good!"

"Again, you agreed so readily, why don't you ask me what I want you to do, and if you are told to kill and set fire, you will do it?"

Changsun Ke raised his eyebrows: "Do I do this kind of thing less often?"

Wei Zhao: ...you are quite proud!

He weighed the book in his hand, and cupped his hands towards Changsun Ke: "I still have important matters today, so I will visit you another day."

"Young Master Wei, please go ahead."

Wei Zhao hurried back to the Hou Mansion to give the antidote to Wei Xuan, and explained how to take it.

Wei Xuan took the antidote, and said angrily, "You really are, why didn't you call elder brother when you went to Master Changsun's place, I was about to come to thank you, but you brought back the antidote."

"Brother, you will be offended if you say this. We are a family, and whoever goes there is different. Besides, you are the son of a dignified town, and you are also an official of the imperial court. You are in charge of the soldiers and horses of the Eastern Camp. If someone with a heart sees it, maybe they will arrange something in front of the imperial court. I am different, anyway, I also got involved in the case of Meiyuan, so I have to deal with the Tongchafu."

Wei Xuan sighed: "Even Ah Zhao has to worry about these things, brother actually hopes that you can be carefree."

"Brother, being carefree doesn't mean you don't have brains."

Wei Xuan smiled and said, "Okay, my third brother is a genius, he's very smart."

Wei Zhao scratched his head and smiled, seemingly hesitating to speak.

Wei Xuan glanced at him and said, "You want to ask how to deal with the incident last night?"

"Hey, big brother, tell me the truth?"

"I'll tell you if you don't ask. Dad ordered someone to deliver the sachet to Eldest Sister's palace last night. Let's just pretend that this never happened, and no one is allowed to mention it again."

Wei Zhao said in shock, "Then Eldest Sister...wouldn't Eldest Sister be very sad if she found out."

Wei Xuan poked his forehead: "You said you were smart, but now you are confused again. Eldest sister is smart and quick-witted. Do you think she has no doubts? Now it's just making things clear. If the emperor doesn't want elder sister If you have an heir, even if the eldest sister can avoid the child-preventing medicine in the sachet and conceive a child, the emperor will try every means to prevent the child from being born."

"Why is the emperor..."

Wei Xuan looked solemn, and said solemnly: "Azhao, some things must be rotten in the heart no matter what. You just need to remember that our Wei family is not loyal to any emperor, but to the people of the world. Our Wei family guards with iron hooves It is not the country of Daqi, but the country of the people of the world. No matter what happens in the future, you must remember this, understand?"

"Brother, Ah Zhao remembers. But elder sister's matter has to be resolved. The emperor has made up his mind to deal with the Wei family long ago. Shall we just let him go on like this?"

"No. Eldest sister is the jewel in the palm of my Zhen Guohou's mansion, no one can bully elder sister. Ah Zhao, father has his own decision on this matter, don't ask, and don't intervene."

"Oh, by the way, is there any clue about the Meiyuan case? It has been seven days now, and I heard that Beiyan's envoy is already on the way. Although Mr. Changsun is the supervisor of the Nanfu and has great power, he will never surpass the emperor. This time he The emperor allowed you to investigate Meiyuan's case privately, but the emperor also acquiesced. From this point of view, the emperor's target this time is not the Hou Mansion, but Hong Kun. He wants to use the hands of our Hou Mansion to completely get rid of Hong Kun. Hong Kun is not a simple character , must have noticed the emperor's thoughts, no matter what, you must be more careful when you do things outside."

"Brother is right. Hong Kun has been operating in Beifu for many years, and the power is deeply rooted. The emperor borrowed a knife to kill people, but our Houfu is not a vegetarian. Don't worry, brother, I have my own arrangements."

"Okay, the antidote has been delivered, you can take it to Yuan'er quickly. I asked Ah Liang to go to Meiyuan to listen to the play."

"Didn't Meiyuan be sealed off early in the morning?"

"He will seal him up. I have my own connections. After all, Meiyuan's singers are the best in Shengjing, and no one else can compare."

"You always have a reason. Big brother doesn't understand these things. You go, come back early, and stop messing around outside."

Wei Zhao turned around and walked towards the door, leaving Wei Xuan with a chic back, waved his hand lazily, and said, "I see, elder brother is more nagging than father."

"Brat, it's itchy!"
