Shengjing Noble

Chapter 393 Careful thinking

Su Lanyin poured the tea in her hand directly on the mother and daughter's faces, with disgust flashing in her eyes.

"Noisy!"

Lu Wanjun couldn't help but be curious: "Yinyin, what's going on? Didn't they put drugs in the tea? Why are our people okay?"

Without waiting for Su Lanyin to answer, Ah Mo said, "The two small bottles the girl gave me contain the antidote. As long as you take it beforehand, any drug will become ineffective."

"So that's how it is! No wonder you two were whispering to each other just now. But Yinyin, how do you know this tea is not right?"

Su Lanyin glanced at Su Lanxin and Liu Ruyan on the ground, and took the silver ingot handed to her by A'mo with a wicked smile.

"Mother, this small tea stall usually only sells ordinary tea to quench the thirst of travelers on the road, and it doesn't make much money in a year."

"But the clerk and the boss had no reaction to such a large silver ingot. Isn't that too strange? Besides, a pot of tea costs only a few cents. Look how much tea leaves they put in it?"

As she spoke, she opened the lid, and sure enough, there was a thick layer of tea leaves inside.

Normally, such a small tea stall would not replace the tea leaves throughout the day. After the previous wave of customers finished drinking, some water would be added for the next wave of customers to continue drinking. Therefore, the tea should not be yellow, but the same transparent color as white water.

This is neither a theater nor a teahouse. No one comes here to really taste tea, let alone the lowest quality tea.

People spend money to buy a pot of water to quench their thirst. In order to make more money, the tea stall owner adds some tea leaves as a gimmick.

Su Lanyin became suspicious when she saw the tea turning yellow, so she did not use the loose silver in her purse, but took out the silver ingots in her arms, just to test it.

After all, she was very clear about the principle of not showing off one's wealth, so she used the loose change in her purse throughout the journey.

Seeing that the clerk and the shopkeeper had no reaction to the silver ingots, she became more certain that this tea stall was not simple.

Sure enough, after a while, the vicious mother and daughter Su Lanxin and Liu Ruyan appeared.

Fortunately, she had anticipated that the journey would be difficult before she left, so she was well prepared.

Lu Wanjun stood up angrily and kicked Liu Ruyan on the butt, but she was still not satisfied, so she grabbed Su Lanxin's hair and slapped her a few more times.

The mother and daughter were beaten so hard that they screamed and groaned, as if they were chickens being slaughtered.

Su Lanyin was worried that she would attract the attention of passers-by, so she said, "Mother, it's getting late, let's go into the city quickly."

"What about the two of them?" Lu Wanjun asked, putting her hands on her hips.

"Of course, I will take them to Anguo Temple."

"You're crazy! These two people are deliberately trying to harm us!"

"That's why we should keep them both under our noses."

After that, Su Lanyin ordered, "Amo, feed them a bowl of drugged tea, then tie them up and stuff them into the carriage. From now on, you must keep a close eye on them at all times and don't be negligent."

"Yes!"

A'mo immediately brought a large bowl of drugged tea, then pried open Su Lanxin and Liu Ruyan's mouths one by one and poured the tea directly into their mouths.

Not long after drinking, the mother and daughter fell into a coma and were thrown into the luggage carriage by their entourage.

……

As it was getting close to evening, Su Lanyin and others entered Ankang Town at the foot of Pingshan Mountain and stayed at the posthouse.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw two old acquaintances sitting in the hall, staring at each other face to face.

Su Lanyin couldn't hide her surprise: "Prince Xiaoyao? Seventh Prince? Why are you two here?"

They both looked towards the door at the same time and saw the long-awaited girl and Lu Wanjun pushing Su Shengyan in. They immediately stood up and rushed over.

However, Fu Mingchuan was in poor health, so he couldn't run as fast as Fu Wuyang.

Lu Wanjun was not as used to it as Su Lanyin. When she saw these two important figures, she hurriedly bowed in fear.

"I greet the two princes."

She clenched her fists and was about to bow when Fu Wuyang helped her up.

"Aunt Lu, you are being too polite."

"Uncle, aunt?"

Lu Wanjun was surprised. When did she become so senior?

If King Xiaoyao calls her aunt, then isn't that even more important than the emperor...

Thinking of this, she quickly shook her head: "No, no! You are the emperor's brother, how can you call me aunt? This won't do. You can just call me Lu Wanjun or the shopkeeper."

Fu Wuyang just wanted to get closer to Lu Wanjun, and he was unwilling to admit that he and Lu Wanjun were of the same generation.

In his eyes, he was only in his early twenties, while Lu Wanjun was nearly forty.

Besides, since Su Lanyin called her mother, it wouldn’t be excessive for him to call her aunt, right?

"You don't need to be so polite. Lanyin and I are close friends. You are her mother, so you are my elder. It is only natural for me to call you aunt."

"Well, then okay." Lu Wanjun was too embarrassed to refuse, so she could only accept it and turned to look at the other Seventh Prince.

Fu Mingchuan was not as eloquent as Fu Wuyang. He took out a long and thin box from his arms.

"Aunt Lu, I haven't seen you for a long time. Is your health better?"

He had saved Lu Wanjun before, so the relationship between them was relatively good.

"Oh, Seventh Prince, it's been a long time since we last met. It was all thanks to you last time, otherwise I wouldn't be alive today."

"You're welcome. You were frightened the last time I saw you, and your health must have been damaged, so I brought this thousand-year-old ginseng to you. I hope you're in good health."

After saying that, he opened the box and presented it with both hands.

Lu Wanjun subconsciously wanted to refuse: "Oh, I can't..."

When she saw the quality of the ginseng in the box, she couldn't utter the second half of the sentence.

It was the first time she had seen such top-quality thousand-year-old ginseng, which almost looked like a human form.

"I have to accept it, thank you, Your Majesty!"

Lu Wanjun is a money-grubber, otherwise she wouldn't have earned so much money.

She quickly put the box into her arms and closed the lid, fearing that someone would snatch it away.

Su Lanyin was somewhat speechless. She quietly tugged at her sleeve and said in a low voice, "Mother, what on earth are you doing? Come back here quickly!"

Lu Wanjun turned a deaf ear to her and instead walked up to her and dragged Fu Mingchuan into the inn as if she was familiar with them. Only Su Lanyin and Fu Wuyang were left looking at each other in bewilderment.

Looking at her mother's back, the corners of her mouth twitched and she said awkwardly: "My mother is such a humorous person, haha...she was just joking."

For some reason, Fu Wuyang seemed very angry. He glared at her coldly, then turned and looked at Su Shengyan with a faint smile.

"Mr. Su, we meet again."

Su Shengyan, who had been silent all the time, nodded and sat in the wheelchair with no intention of getting up.

After all, he is now a useless person in the eyes of others and can't even stand up, which saves a lot of trouble.
