Chapter 739: Another Peace Charm Is Delivered
Shao Wanru's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately remembered the past incident that Master Mingqiu had told her, because she had only heard about it, and had not thought of it before as Yu Jie didn't have the clarity to face it.
It wasn't from the Central Plains, so she thought the smell was strange, but she didn't know what the medicinal powder was. She had come into contact with a lot of medicinal materials in the past, but she had never smelled anything like this, which was obviously rare.
"Is it the disease caused by using incense?" Yu Jie reminded Shao Wanru immediately, and his face changed slightly.
"Yes, the one with the incense stick!" Yu Jie said with a heavy face.
The room fell silent. Compared with other triggering methods, the trigger caused by incense sticks was even more difficult to prevent.
Shao Wanru's eyes fell on a copper incense burner on the table by the window. There was incense in the burner, and the faint fragrance came out of the mouth of the incense burner, refreshing and refreshing.
"This kind of incense should also be possible!" Shao Wanru asked slowly.
Yujie nodded, her face turning pale, "Miss, what should we do now?"
"Put this peace talisman away and place it..." Shao Wanru pondered for a moment.
"Miss, can I bury the peace talisman?" Yu Jie's eyes lit up. Since this peace talisman is not good, burying it is the best way.
Shao Wanru shook his head: "Don't bury it!"
She remembered what happened to Duke Xingguo's wife. Aunt Sheng had buried the piece of oil paper in the soil. In fact, it was easy for people to find something in the newly turned soil, especially in a place like Chuxiu Palace. There was no one, and now there were so many people.
If someone discovers newly buried traces, they will definitely feel something strange. When the time comes, they will check them again and again, and they will easily find them on themselves.
Things in the palace would cause waves even if there was no wind, let alone something like this that was already windy. Shao Wanru could be sure that by then it would not just be about his own peace talisman, but it would also lead to endless disasters!
But it’s not appropriate to put it here.
"Don't bury it, it's not appropriate to put it here. If someone really tampered with the incense secretly, the lady will be in trouble!"
Yujie said anxiously, although Miss Cai had just obtained this peace charm, even if someone lit the incense, it would not be a big problem, but she did not dare to bet that she saw with her own eyes the young lady who developed a serious illness because of the incense. , there was no good spot on her body, there were all black bubbles. Later, even though Master Mingqiu cured her, she was still covered in scars.
This appearance is ruined.
"Go get a purse." Shao Wanru ordered.
Yu Jie nodded, got up and went to look for a purse in the package they brought. After a while, she came out with a purse. After Shao Wanru put the peace charm in it, he thought about it and asked, "Did you bring the mint?"
"Yes, I will release you immediately!" Yu Jie was shocked at first, and then overjoyed. She hurriedly turned around and entered the inner room again, and brought out some mint. When the two of them entered the palace, they also prepared some ordinary medicines.
The mint was prepared by the two of them early at that time.
"Miss, if you hadn't said that, I wouldn't have remembered it." Yujie put the mint on the peace charm, then tightened the opening of the purse and tied it hard.
After the medicine on the peace charm is mixed with a special incense, acne spores will appear on the body of the person who smells it, and they will also break into pus. Neither of them knows how much will cause this symptom, but no matter what, Neither of them dared to try. They couldn't throw it away, and they couldn't bury it.
Suppressing it with mint is the best way. When Master Mingqiu treated that young lady, the main medicine was mint.
Later, Master Mingqiu also mentioned in a casual chat that mint flavor can suppress this fragrance and make it fresh.
Master Mingqiu just mentioned it casually. Yujie didn't think of it for this reason just now. She was secretly glad at this moment. Fortunately, they both brought mint with them. Otherwise, where would they find this kind of mint? .
Hang the purse to the back window and hang it outside the window. This is the last room inside, and you are not afraid that people will turn to that side. There is only a small partition wall next to that place. Someone might find out.
After closing the window here, the two of them calmed down. Shao Wanru sat down again and Yujie served tea.
"Miss, this peace talisman was given to you by the Third Miss. Is it possible that the Third Miss wants to deal with you?" After Yu Jie put down the tea, she stood next to Shao Wanru and asked in confusion.
"It shouldn't be her! Even if she hurts me, she can't get any benefits!" Shao Wanru shook his head and said.
She was not sure that Shao Caihuan could not harm her, but she felt that Shao Caihuan had no interest in her. Even if something happened to her, she would not benefit.
Even if he wanted to block it, he couldn't stand in her way.
"But this is what Third Miss gave to you!" Yujie said in confusion.
Shao Wanru was silent for a moment. She really didn't believe that Shao Caihuan would attack her now. Her eyes narrowed slightly. This palace was really a dragon's den and a tiger's den. It was only the first day, and she had already dug a hole for herself. She didn't even know it. Who was it that secretly tripped him up?
But this Buddhist fragrance reminded her of someone!
Even though this person showed no ill intentions toward her, he couldn't resist the ill intentions of those around him.
The dinner consisted of four dishes and one soup, which was pretty good. After dinner, the eunuch brought several pots of hot water for her to take a bath.
After washing up, the sky outside had completely darkened. The master and servant had been tired for a day, so they took an early rest.
The lights in Shao Caihuan's room were turned off soon after, and he had obviously fallen asleep.
Shao Yanru was sitting under the lamp, but she didn't sleep. She was holding a letter in her hand, with a faint smile on her lips. She had just received the letter and she had read it several times.
After reading it, pick up the letter, light it in the lamp, and watch it turn into ashes.
"Miss...could this be a lie?" Shuqi asked hesitantly, while cleaning up the burned ashes. This letter was picked up by a little palace maid just now.
"It's true!" Shao Yanru affirmed, her smile becoming more and more proud. Shao Wanru's expression had always made her worried, but she was not worried now. She didn't expect that someone had already made a plan for her before she had arranged it. She saved some calculations.
In this draft, Shao Yanru felt that Shao Wanru was her biggest opponent.
"But... this is the palace?" Shuqi was a little worried and reminded her carefully.
"So what if this is the palace! It's better to be here. Even the eldest princess Ruian can't interfere!" Shao Yanru snorted coldly.
"But..." Shuqi wanted to say something more, but was rudely interrupted by Shao Yanru, "Since we didn't think of this matter, it will naturally not be caused by me in the future. No matter what happened to Shao Wanru, It has nothing to do with me! Just be careful not to reveal the truth."
Her cold gaze fell on Shuqi, who was so frightened that Shuqi quickly shrank his neck and did not dare to say anything more.
Compared with before, the young lady's temper is much more violent. At the earliest, she made suggestions to the young lady, and the young lady listened. Now the young lady is basically arbitrary, and her temper in private is getting more and more violent. If she hadn't been The serving lady almost thought that she was a different person.
Shuqi felt that in the early days, the young lady's temper was really peaceful. She was not very angry no matter what and could control her emotions very well.
The first day after entering the palace passed so quietly.
Early the next morning, the eunuchs delivered breakfast to the doorsteps of the ladies who stayed behind on time. After breakfast, they gathered again. This morning, everyone learned the palace rules from the nun in charge.
This matter is a very painful thing for young ladies who have not learned it before, or who have learned it improperly. If they make the slightest mistake, they will be scolded by the steward in front of everyone, but those who have never learned palace rules and etiquette are often the same. Most of the young ladies who are not taken seriously or who are not powerful enough have learned it, but they have not learned it to such a standard.
Shao Ruru, Shao Yanru and several ladies from powerful families all learned very easily. In the end, because they had nothing to do, they sat on the sidelines and watched the ladies in charge scolding the ladies who had not learned well and had to learn it again, while chatting.
Zhang Qilan ran to Shao Wanru's side again, and the two found a place to sit down and chat.
"Fifth Miss, do you have this?" Zhang Qilan asked softly. After checking that no one noticed them, he pulled out a piece of thread from his sleeve.
The familiar thread happened to be the one she had just seen yesterday. She nodded slightly and said, "Third sister gave me one!"
"I thought you didn't have one, so I thought I'd buy one for you. Since you have it, forget it!" Zhang Qilan lowered her head and carefully stuffed the thread into the cuff, looking around for fear of being discovered.
"Did the steward ask for it?" Shao Wanru asked.
"Yes, I asked about this specifically. It should have been bought to me for the sake of my father. However, your Xingguo government is also powerful, and those people should also give it to you for the sake of your family. of!"
Zhang Qilan glanced sideways at the nuns standing among them, and seeing that they didn't notice them, she leaned over and whispered.
"Where did they come from?" Shao Wanru heard the meaning and asked calmly.
"Did you know that there is a Buddhist temple in the palace?" Zhang Qilan asked.
Shao Wanru nodded. Counting yesterday, this was the second person to ask him this question.
"I heard that the Buddhist temple in the palace is becoming more and more effective. I don't know who went there first to ask for the peace talisman. Later, it was said that it is quite effective. However, it is not easy to find the peace talisman in the palace, so the peace talisman is becoming more and more powerful. It’s become more precious!” Zhang Qilan pouted, “I actually don’t really believe it!”
"There was no such peace charm before?" Shao Wanru's heart moved, and some waves appeared in his watery eyes.
"I've never heard of it before, but I heard about it this time, and I heard that it's very prosperous." Zhang Qilan said nonchalantly.
