Chapter 286 I’m not helping you
This room,
There were many wild animals passing by Cui Yun's eyes, none of which were as colorful as Shen Hua's mink hair. For this reason, he quickly looked away without raising the bow and arrow in his hand.
Xie Xun didn't seem to be in a hurry.
He drove his horse slowly, took something out of his sleeve and threw it to Cui Yun.
"A few days ago, I went to Fengzhou. This is the incense that Mrs. Shen used in the early years."
Cui Yun caught it. After a calm look, he said indifferently: "Ni Kang has tested it. The fragrance in the incense conflicts with the medicine in the prescription."
Xie Xun's face turned dark.
He personally went to the prescription for Shen Hua's medicine. When he got the prescription, he visited all the pharmacies in Fengzhou and dozens of doctors looked at them one by one.
Only then did she dare to let Shen Hua take it, and she took it for several years. It was effective at first, but then Shen Hua's health became worse and worse, and the effect gradually faded away.
He suddenly froze, and his back felt faintly cold.
Prescriptions have been around for a long time, but... incense only appeared later.
Back then, Shen Wei came back from business and brought many items from his daughter's house, and the incense was originally for the Shen Chun family.
Later, Yangyang Aimei would go to Shen Chun's house from time to time.
Incense was rare, and seeing that she really liked it, Shen Chun simply gave it to her.
From that moment on, the incense that Shen Wei brought from outside at a high price was also delivered to Shen Hua's house along with the flowing tonics.
So during this period, was it a coincidence or man-made?
As soon as he thought of this, Cui Yun added lightly.
"It is inappropriate to say that it is fragrant. It is more expensive than ambergris, the most expensive incense. It is difficult to find and difficult to grow. It is rarely added by ordinary workshops. If the gram quantity cannot be controlled, Good, more pungent and less bland. If you are not careful, it will affect the unique taste of incense."
Cui Yun looked at him and said three words very slowly: "It's man-made."
Since he wanted to investigate and he couldn't stop Xie Xun, it was better to exchange information and share intelligence to get twice the result with half the effort.
Xie Xun naturally understood what Cui Yun meant.
His lips moved.
"Your information is quite good. I went to Fengzhou City to check on one more thing."
Cui Yun frowned: "I know."
Xie Xun couldn't help but be on guard.
Cui Yun: "I'm not checking you, but I have a lot of spies in Fengzhou City. Do you want to help?"
Xie Xun has always been secretive in his actions, which shows Cui Yun's spy...
Xie Xun wants the truth to be revealed more urgently than anyone else.
However, he had connections in Shengjing and prestige in the army, but he was alone in Fengzhou and had no influence at all.
If he wanted to investigate, I'm afraid it would take a lot of effort. At least for now, he didn't have a clue.
The incense incident has also become a mystery.
Cui Yun can ask this question, which shows that he is very capable. Also, in just a few years, many arrogant magistrates have become prisoners. His intelligence network and hidden stakes should not be underestimated.
Xie Xun looked at him: "I want to know the real reason why he fell from the horse."
"Now that the matter has been made clear, I can trust you as a person, and there is no need to hide it anymore. As far as I know, the mountain road was not foggy on the day of the accident."
The horse was not frightened either.
The falling off the cliff was just an illusion. He, Shen Chun and a group of slaves were stabbed several times and then pushed into the cliff together with the carriage.
Cui Yun was also a little surprised.
"The second wife of the Shen family has enough motives."
Xie Xun tightened his lips and remained silent.
Cui Yun: "After the spring hunting is over, I will arrange for people to go there and investigate the matter later. Someone will contact you."
"Thanks."
Cui Yun just said: "I'm not helping you."
While the two were talking, they heard the sound of horse hooves behind them, and they both agreed not to say anything more.
Emperor Gyü came here chasing a deer. He calmed down the horse and held the bow in his left hand. He drew the string with his right hand and aimed at one place. He only heard a whooshing sound.
The arrow shot out and hit the deer directly.
He quickly added two more arrows.
The giant fell.
The people who caught up behind him started to praise him.
Emperor Jie was smiling, but he was still modest: "I'm old, I'm not as good as before."
As he said this, he narrowed his eyes in deep thought and looked at Cui Yun and Xie Xun.
Cui Yun and Xie Xun got off their horses and went to say hello.
Emperor Geng spared the two of them the courtesy: "Thanks for being the second son of Shengjing, the two of you standing together are really eye-catching."
Prince Gong laughed loudly: "If it weren't for the fact that you are so prosperous, brother, there are so many talented people in Daqi. This young generation needs both literature and martial arts, and their appearance is pretty good."
"I remember that a few years ago, the envoys of the Chaochen Kingdom came to remonstrate. The son of the imperial tutor was very talented in literature and wanted to compete with Da Qi. At that time, Cui Xiaozi was sent."
As soon as he said this, several officials nearby laughed.
The people of the Chaochen Kingdom were rough-looking. Although the son of the Grand Tutor was a scholar, he was tall, with a square face and a sturdy man.
At that time, Cui Yun was wearing a simple and elegant robe, dignified and solemn, shaped like a bright moon. As he moved around, his scarlet robe billowed in the wind.
The son of the Taifu was immediately dumbfounded. He hesitated and said, "I'm here to review the poems, not to compare their beauty."
Thinking of this incident, Emperor Geng also smiled a little.
"We have been in the hunting ground for so long, but you two have gained nothing? Xie Xun, I have to talk about you. You are a general on horseback, and if you show your ability, you can't let it go."
Xie Xun: "Yes."
Emperor Jie looked at Cui Yun again, seemingly relieved, and his expression softened a lot.
"Weizhen."
"Why don't you bring the girl you brought with you to show me this time?"
Xie Xun's heart tightened.
Cui Yun, however, took his time and said, "She is timid and timid. She may not be able to face the face of the sky."
Ji Huo could barely catch his breath.
He rolled his eyes blankly.
Prince Gong couldn't see him like this the most, so he scolded him in a low voice: "What's wrong with you again?"
Ji Huo pulled the man aside and told him: "Father, do you really appreciate Cui Yun and Xie Xun so much?"
"nature!"
Ji Huo: "Don't look at how glamorous they look on the surface, but secretly they are fighting over and over again just for a girl."
"Yesterday, I witnessed with my own eyes, a jealous person turned upside down, and a humble and attentive person who took care of everything."
Prince Gong's eyes flashed.
"What you said is true?"
"Do I look like the kind of person who spreads rumors wantonly?"
Prince Gong had an idea.
"You take advantage of the fact that the fight between the two gets serious and grab the girl over earlier. My son, here's your chance to prove it."
He patted Ji Huo on the shoulder: "Go and have a great comeback! Compare the two of them!"
Ji Huo: "I tried."
"It didn't work."
"If I try again, maybe I can play in the mud with Ji Cong."

And here, Shen Hua learned about the poisonous snake from Ying Wu's mouth.
Xie Yining turned pale with fear.
Cui Rong stamped her feet angrily: "I knew she had no good intentions! It's a trivial thing to scare you, but what if I'm scared?"
Shen Hua pursed her lips: "Where's the snake?"
"My subordinate threw it away."
Shen Hua never believed in the way of giving back to others. She only knew that she would pay the consequences if she doubled her offer.
"Go and pick it up, roast it over the fire until it wakes up, and then throw it back."
