Chapter 77 Poison (1)

"You want me to poison the princess?!"

Dachui knew that with Jingyu's temperament, he would definitely not be able to do such a thing, so he explained seriously: "Second Master, please listen to me tell you in detail! This Mixiang was not used to murder the princess in the first place, but

Just let her sleep! Look, she took a nap and after waking up, if you don’t leave, then nothing happened. If you leave, then you took advantage of her while she was asleep last night.

He sneaked out of the house and was burned to death. Whatever you want to choose, I will not interfere. There is just one thing that requires special attention..."

"What should I pay attention to?"

Sledgehammer swallowed, with a hint of guilt in his eyes: "This can only succeed, not fail. Once the princess knows that you have ordered her some incense, she will never trust her as unreservedly as before.

You are welcome."

After hearing this, Jing Yu felt as if his heart had been cut out with a knife.

He never knew why someone so wary as Xu Ruyi would trust him without reservation.

No matter what he did or made trouble, she would pamper him and indulge him.

But he had a hunch that once he did this, she would never forgive him.

"I just want to put her to sleep as usual and then go out to solve a problem. I will be back soon."

Sledgehammer said in confusion: "What if she wakes up before you leave the house? Or if someone knocks on the door and calls her, she finds out that you are not there? You must think about this clearly!"

This is indeed a problem, but Jing Yu can't get over this hurdle in his heart.

But if he didn't go out to meet this person at midnight the day after tomorrow, something would really happen, and Jing Yu wouldn't be able to bear the responsibility.

So, Jing Yu gritted his teeth and decided to take a risk.

Early the next morning, Jing Yu asked Dachui to get his spices. Unexpectedly, when Dachui went out, he was stopped by the housewife.

Aunt Fang said to Dachui: "Dachui, why are you running around all day long? I've never seen anyone come and go as frequently as you!"

The sledgehammer made a "squeak" sound and said: "Second Master has too many business matters, and others can't get out, so I have to help negotiate!"

The corners of Nanny Fang's mouth twitched slightly and she said, "You are quite busy. How did you go about the things that the princess gave you before?"

Sledgehammer blinked, but he didn't expect that Aunt Fang was also a sharp person.

Sledgehammer replied: "Don't worry, I have a great time playing with them. I know exactly what those old ladies like to study all day long."

After the greetings, when Sledgehammer saw that the housewife no longer inquired, he said hello: "Mom, you are busy with your business, I am going out!"

Aunt Fang watched Sledgehammer go out humming a tune. She always felt that this person was not reliable, but there were still many things to do in the house, so she didn't think too much about it.

Not long after, Sledgehammer came back with a full set of agarwood.

But after reaching the inner room, he stopped.

Xu Ruyi was actually settling accounts in the inner room at this time, while Jing Yu was checking the accounts.

Jing Yu never expected that Xu Ruyi's learning ability was so good. He taught her a few times, and she immediately learned to draw inferences from one instance to another. She even fiddled with the abacus very skillfully. How could she look like an accounting novice?

As long as no one disturbs her, she can calculate accounts very quickly. In less than an hour, she has read through an entire account book.

After checking an account book, Xu Ruyi flexed her muscles and said depressedly: "I won't read it anymore, my eyes are too tired."

Where is the job she should be doing?

But Jing Yu hopes that she can read more of the account books. Firstly, it will make her more skilled in how to manage the industry. Secondly, it will consume her energy in the past two days so that she will not be so troubled when she goes to bed at night.

"Princess, I really didn't expect you to settle accounts more clearly than me!"

The corner of Xu Ruyi's lips raised slightly: "Otherwise, do you think I'm just doing nothing when I'm around the eldest lady?"

Jing Yu couldn't find a suitable adjective, so he gave a thumbs up.

Seeing that they were resting inside, Sledgehammer knocked on the door and said: "Second Master! Second Master!"

Jing Yu hurried over and opened the door, only to see Sledgehammer holding a complete set of agarwood boxes, which shocked Xu Ruyi beside him.

Xu Ruyi hurriedly asked: "What are you doing?"

Jing Yu chuckled, took the agarwood, and said to Xu Ruyi, "It's like this, haven't we been sleeping well recently? So I was thinking about lighting some agarwood while we sleep, it's very healthy!"

Xu Ruyi frowned and said, "Are you unable to think of a bedtime story? So you came up with such a bad idea?"

Even if Xu Ruyi wanted to break her head, she didn't think about Jing Yu's plan to attack her. In her opinion, Jing Yu's little cleverness was all used in skating. They were just little tricks, and these were nothing.

It's harmless.

Sure enough, Jing Yu laughed awkwardly.

Xu Ruyi indeed guessed Mao Ni, but out of trust in him, she did not think of the worst.

But this is what makes Jing Yu feel uncomfortable. She would not have thought that Jing Yu had been carefully planning to escape from the princess's house in the past two days. Once she found out all this, he would have to cheat his death even if he didn't want to, because

When that time comes, there is no need to let Ruyi divorce him, as he himself will feel ashamed.

But now, Jing Yu acted like a normal person and said to Xu Ruyi, "My eldest lady has agreed to use this agarwood!"

Xu Ruyi twitched the corner of her mouth with a sly smile: "Are you sure the lady has used it?"

Jing Yu suddenly choked up: "Is she useless?"

"I stayed in Ci'an Palace for two days, and I saw that she was still using the same agarwood. She said your agarwood was good, and that was to give you face and respond to your filial piety. Otherwise, if this agarwood is the same as hers

Her body can't fit together, and you can't bear the collision!"

Jing Yu thought that he was explaining business matters to Xu Ruyi unilaterally, but he was caught off guard and was taught a lesson by Xu Ruyi.

He suddenly didn't dare to use this agarwood on Xu Ruyi, so he asked cautiously: "What about you? Are you willing to use this agarwood?"

Xu Ruyi smiled and said: "Since you brought this back from outside specially, I will try it with it!"

Jing Yu discovered that she was indeed defenseless against him.

So Jing Yu lit agarwood in front of her.

Of course, he himself was there, and he could guarantee that the agarwood would not poison Xu Ruyi, but would replace it with a more effective agarwood after she trusted it.

He dared to say that it was not incense, but the agarwood did make people fall asleep within ten days, and without human intervention, they would not wake up the whole night.

However, this agarwood is still relatively mild at the moment.

Xu Ruyi tasted the smell of agarwood and couldn't help but sigh: "This agarwood smells quite good!"

"Hehe! It smells good! I said this agarwood is excellent, but it's a pity that the lady doesn't want to enjoy it, and there's nothing we can do about it!"
