Chapter 309: Prepare the Masks!

"Fine, since you can't understand human language, then don't blame me for being impolite!" Nie Zhixuan didn't want to lay a hand on a woman. His mother had told him since he was a child that a man who hits a woman will never get rich. His father was an example. He had never raised his voice at his mother, and he had never even raised his voice. That's how he rose through the ranks and became the Right Prime Minister of Tianqi.

Last night, he misunderstood that the Third Princess of Dayue was bullying the old man, so he didn't take any action. He just cast out the Soul-Locking Net that the Imperial Advisor had given him, and in the process, Lu Tangyun pulled out a tuft of his hair.

Today, the Crown Princess of Dongxu Kingdom is even more arrogant than the Third Princess of Dayue Kingdom. Unable to seize the courtyard of the Dayue Kingdom, she now tries to seize the courtyard of Tianqi Kingdom. This is truly outrageous.

Remembering the instructions the Grand Tutor gave him before leaving, the Grand Tutor told him to act decisively when necessary, and that a man who is too soft-hearted will become a henpecked husband. He was determined not to become a henpecked husband, so he took action!
"Masks ready!"

"boom!"

Nie Zhixuan took out a white sphere and threw it to the ground. White smoke rose rapidly. The students of Tianqi Kingdom had already put on the masks around their necks. Then, all the people from Dongxu Kingdom who had come with Tan Yalan to cause trouble were stiff and fell to the ground, including Tan Yalan herself.

"You actually poisoned me! You're despicable and shameless!" Tan Yalan could only move her mouth now, and she was furious. She had been poisoned three times in one night, and she was truly cursed!

I initially thought this big, dumb-looking guy was easy to bully, but I never expected him to be a master of poison.

"You're the despicable one! I was just defending myself! You pulled my hair, what's wrong with me fighting back!"

"Besides, didn't Princess Yonghe say? First, seduce the slut! Humph! You asked for this!"

"Men, carry them all out of the courtyard and dump them at the gate!" At Nie Zhixuan's command, the guards of Tianqi Kingdom carried the immobile people of Dongxu Kingdom out of the courtyard and piled them at the entrance of Wanxiang Garden.

Tan Yalan kept cursing, but Nie Zhixuan was completely unmoved. Let her curse, it won't hurt him, so he didn't care!
Tan Yalan was lifted up by the guards of Tianqi Kingdom. There was no tenderness or pity shown to her. She was thrown to the doorway as if she were being thrown away as trash, leaving her dizzy and disoriented.

"There is no antidote for this poison. You will be able to move automatically in three hours. Remember, don't mess with the people of Tianqi Kingdom in the future. Close the gate!"

After Nie Zhixuan finished speaking, he slammed the gate of Wanxiang Garden shut tightly, completely ignoring Tan Yalan's shouts and screams.

"Whoa~~~~~~~~!"

A crisp whistle rang out, and Nie Zhixuan looked up to see three figures watching the commotion on the third floor of the neighboring courtyard. One of them waved to him, while the other gave him a thumbs-up.

Nie Zhixuan immediately greeted them with a smile, waved his hand, and made a bow before leading his men back.

"Hahaha, I told you! This guy definitely has the ability to protect himself. Don't forget who their Grand Tutor is, one of the Thirteen Protectors of Duzhu Mountain. Using poison is a piece of cake for him!"

"This guy looks like a silly goose, so easy to bully, hahaha! It's quite funny!" That's right, the one whistling was Sheng Wanqiu. The three of them had really seen a good show, and she was having a blast. Even a rabbit will bite when cornered. Tan Yalan will definitely have to shut up for a few days now.

I wonder if the people from Wei will fight it out when these two countries meet, hehe!
With her around, she'll create conflict where none exists. Who told that old man Gu to be so shameless as to try and assassinate her? This time, she'll definitely teach him a lesson.

Have a good night's sleep!
No one knows when Tan Yalan was carried back, but Sheng Wanqiu and the others went back to sleep after watching the commotion.

That's the good thing about Sheng Wanqiu; she doesn't care at all about not being able to sleep in unfamiliar environments, and she can fall asleep as soon as her head hits the pillow.

She was awakened by the noise coming from the kitchen in Xuezhu Garden. She thought the cook was chopping dumpling filling and her stomach was ready to eat dumplings or buns. But after she got dressed, she found Lu Li, Lu Yu and Qiao Wenyuan standing in the yard with speechless expressions.

"What's going on?" Just as she finished asking the question, Sheng Wanqiu saw Lu Lingyun being chased out by a plump cook, and she looked embarrassed when she saw the others there.

"Daughter! Look for yourself!"

Qiao Wenyuan shook his head, pointed to the kitchen door, and turned to leave. None of the current members of the Dayue royal family are normal; he's gotten used to it now!
"Princess! I beg you, there are only five cutting boards in total, and you've already chopped four. Please, have mercy and leave me one of the last ones!"

The plump cook was almost in tears. Her old elm wood cutting board! Waaah! She had finally managed to coax it from her master, and good heavens, this Princess Zhaoren of Dayue had chopped four of them to pieces this morning!
This is a cutting board, not a wooden stake, so you don't need to use so much force!
How can she explain it to the princess so that she will understand?
Lu Lingyun awkwardly scratched her toes on the ground. She had eaten a braised duck with soy sauce last night and thought it tasted good. She remembered that Xiao Jin had told her before that he wanted to try her cooking. This was the first time her younger brother had made such a request to her, so she decided to learn how to make this dish and cook it for her brother when they went to Qingshan Village.

She was just chopping up a duck, how could she have known that the cutting board would be so useless? With one stroke, it shattered in two.

Seeing the plump cook leave in a huff, Lu Lingyun walked up to the three of them, feeling utterly dejected.

When Sheng Wanqiu learned what Lu Lingyun had done, she almost burst out laughing. This woman was probably used to beheading people and didn't know how to hold back. She was chopping up ducks, but if you didn't know better, you would think she had killed her father's enemy!

"Cousin, every profession is like a mountain, why don't you switch tracks! That cook was almost crying just now, hahaha!" Lu Yu teased, never one to miss a good show.

"If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!" Lu Lingyun's sharp gaze successfully stopped Lu Yu's laughter, catching it in his throat.

"Sister Yun, if you want to learn cooking, isn't that easy? Just ask me! I'll teach you until you learn. My cooking is amazing, you can ask Brother Lu if you don't believe me!" Sheng Wanqiu started recommending herself with a grin, and even brought up Lu Li as a witness so that Lu Lingyun wouldn't believe her.

“Yes! I can vouch for that, Wanqiu’s cooking is indeed very good!” Lu Li immediately raised his hand to express his approval.

"Forget it! Forget it, I won't humiliate myself! My confidence is damaged!" Lu Lingyun rarely joked and teased herself.
