Chapter 537 In Progress
"Didn't they say that the prince arrived early? Where did he go?"
"Madam, the prince has taken his men to the fields."
Lu Shian was a little surprised: "Why is he going to the fields?"
Cheng Kuan replied: "Didn't Madam ask him to measure the size of the fields?"
Lu Shi'an then remembered that this was indeed the task she had given him. She had only made up an excuse to get him out of the way. Lu Shi'an had already asked the Cheng Kuan brothers to do the job of counting the fields.
I didn’t expect that he didn’t do it at that time, but now he remembers it.
"The seeds will arrive gradually. The farming experts from Wanning Prefecture will not arrive for a few days. By then, the task of teaching the villagers how to farm will be handed over to you two brothers."
Cheng Kuan clasped his fists and said, "Madam, rest assured. We two brothers will do our best."
"By the way, Wang Youcai, you can read, so you can be my accountant from now on."
Wang Youcai didn't expect Lu Shian to entrust him with such an important task. He clasped his fists excitedly and said, "Madam, rest assured. I will do my best."
The reason why Lu Shian didn't buy Wang Youcai from the human trafficker was because he was angry about it. This time, knowing that Wang Youcai had been devoted to his previous master, Lu Shian admired him very much.
There are probably not many people in this world who can do what he has done.
"Take your three children with you and let them learn from you. I have a lot of business under my control, and it may be difficult for you to support it alone."
"Yes, I will follow Madam's arrangements."
Things were almost arranged, so Lu Shian stood up and walked out.
Seeing her walking out, Xier immediately followed her and said, "Master, you haven't had a good rest these days. Let them do the inspection work."
Lu Shian yawned: "I don't know why, I've been having dreams lately and can't sleep well."
Que'er also said, "Master, you haven't had a good rest in a few days, why don't you go back to your room and rest first?"
Lu Shian shook his head: "No, there are only so many things to do. Once we are done, we will go home."
On this side, Lu Shian was very busy for Cheng An, and Shen Teng was also very busy.
But what he was busy with was not business. He was getting married, and his wife was none other than the young genius doctor Nanxing.
Nanxing was in a dilemma at this moment: "A bride always has her family. If I don't ask Master to come, I won't have any family..."
Shen Teng sat by her side and patiently comforted her: "Don't worry, even if you don't have any family from your mother's family, I won't bully you. On the contrary, I will love you more and take back your share of your mother's family."
Hearing this, Nan Xing couldn't help but burst out laughing: "It hurts all at once? Why does it hurt? I usually eat one bowl of rice, but now I have to eat two bowls of rice, drink double the amount of water, and wear two sets of clothes?"
"If you are willing, I have no problem with that. Our Shen family can afford it anyway."
"Miss Nanxing, there is a man outside the door who claims to be your senior brother and wants to see you."
Nanxing, who was still laughing, was struck by lightning when he heard the word "senior brother".
Shen Teng saw her face turn pale. Although he didn't know what was going on, he still patted her on the back and comforted her softly: "If you don't want to see me, then don't see me."
As Shen Teng said this, he wanted the maid to drive his senior brother away, but Nanxing grabbed his hand.
"No, I must see it. I must see it."
However, Nanxing did not let Jing Mo enter the Shen Mansion, but took him to a secluded teahouse.
After entering the teahouse, Nanxing threw a gold ingot to the waiter and said, "I have booked this teahouse."
The waiter stared at the gold with his eyes wide open. He nodded repeatedly, then turned around and ran to call the shopkeeper.
After going up to the second floor, Nanxing, who was walking in front, suddenly pulled out a dagger from her sleeve. She turned around and stabbed Jing Mo in the chest.
Jing Mo seemed to have been on guard against her for a long time. He reached out and easily grabbed Nan Xing's wrist, and said to Nan Xing with a smile: "Junior sister is really naughty."
"Jing Mo, you killed the late emperor, I will kill you."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a big hat, you just put it on me like that, without even asking me if I can handle it."
"You are not my senior brother, you are an unforgivable bastard."
"I really want to attend your wedding, but you say this to me. I am so sad."
"You, how do you know..."
"Know what? Do you know that you are going to marry into the Shen family?"
Nan Xing seemed to have thought of something: "You, you have planted spies in the Shen family."
"Don't say that. I'm just a doctor. I don't have that ability."
Jing Mo let go of Nan Xing's hand and walked straight to the table and sat down. Just at this time, the waiter brought tea and melon seeds.
He grabbed the melon seeds and started to eat them leisurely.
"Why are you still standing there like an idiot? Come sit down and taste the tea made with this ingot of gold."
Nan Xing came and sat down opposite him, and put the dagger in his hand on the table.
She just looked at her senior brother like this, and she felt that he was becoming more and more unfamiliar to her.
"Are you really my senior brother?"
"Replacement guaranteed."
Nanxing was very confused. She had many questions to ask, but she didn't know where to start.
"Poison, that poison was given to Prince Duan by you, right?"
The poison that Nanxing was referring to was naturally the poison that had taken away the late emperor.
Jing Mo nodded and then shook his head: "Yes and no."
"What does this mean? Yes means yes, no means no. What does it mean to be yes and no?"
Nanxing was anxious. This was no small matter. Knowing that the late emperor's poison had no antidote, she was about to collapse.
The first person she thought of was her senior brother. His medical skills were better than hers, but he was better at using poison. She didn't understand why her senior brother could come up with such a vicious poison. At that time, she secretly asked the Shen family to help find out the whereabouts of her senior brother, but unfortunately, her senior brother seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth.
Later, the previous emperor passed away. For some unknown reason, the new emperor did not investigate the source of the poison. Nanxing felt inexplicably relieved.
If the poison was really given to Prince Duan by the senior brother, then the master and she would definitely be implicated.
She originally thought that her senior brother would disappear or at least would not appear in Anjing in a short period of time, but not long after, he appeared in Anjing in a swagger.
Seeing Nanxing so anxious, Jingmo smiled indifferently.
He took out a somewhat worn book from his pocket and placed it in front of Nanxing: "This is what Master asked me to give you."
Nan Xing excitedly took the medical book in his hand and said, "This, this is Master's medical skills. He wrote down everything he learned throughout his life in this book. Normally, I am not allowed to touch it. How could he be willing to give this book to me?"
After she finished speaking, she froze. She wanted to drop the book in her hand, but her limbs were already stiff. She wanted to stand up, she tried desperately to stand up, but unfortunately she couldn't move. Only her eyes could move.
If she could move now, the first thing she would do would be to slap herself twice. How could she be so stupid that she didn't even notice the problem with such a simple trap?
"you you……"
"Shh, this poison can only trap you for a short while, so I'll have to trouble you for a while."
As they were talking, two people came up from downstairs with ropes in their hands and quickly tied Nanxing up.
Before the rope was tied, Nanxing had already recovered.
