in-waiting, how does this matter concern our Majesty"A minister from the Panlong Kingdom jumped out and loudly rebuked.A female official stepped forward, surveying the crowd with disdain in her eyes....With a smile, Lian Ri finished the last mouthful of soup and placed the spoon down. She then replied to Wen Shi Ge's words without a hint of embarrassment.

"Miss Hua, your nose is truly discerning. My residence does indeed have a grove of emerald bamboo."

Wen Shirui said with a smile.

“I am very confident in my nose, after all, our Hua family made its fortune cultivating flowers and trees. My grandfather said we should never forget our roots. Before coming to Wenjia Fort, the flower business near Liuxian City was all handled by the Hua family. This time, my dowry includes a plant of Zi Yunhua, which can cure any poison.”

Liàn Yī looked straight at Wēn Shìruì, and this time both Wēn Shí Gē and Wēn Shì Xuān's breaths tightened.

Wen Shirui, on the other hand, was the most composed. He put down his chopsticks and said with a slight smile:

"I have heard from Shi Xuan that the Zi Yun flower is extremely difficult to cultivate, with very high requirements for its growing environment. Yet, I was unaware that Miss Hua had actually cultivated one. Perhaps Master Hua simply did not mention it to me."

Rinyi, putting on a pretense of aloofness, said:

"This was bred by me privately, and I haven't had time to tell my father about it. If it weren't for the fact that I'm marrying into the Wen family this time, I wouldn't be willing to take it out."

But who am I to resist your charm Since you want to marry Young Master Wen and don't want to be rejected by him, I naturally have to present a dowry that will capture his heart!

“”

There's no arguing with that. All three of the Wen family's sons have nothing to say in rebuttal.

"I'm aware of this. As for the marriages of our three brothers, it is certainly up to our parents to decide. I will certainly inform my father about Miss Hua's advantages."

Wen Shirui didn't directly refuse, after all, the chips offered by Lianyi were indeed tempting.

Then, I'll be waiting for good news from Master Hua!

Ringlets smiled sweetly.

"I would like to take a walk in the courtyard. Would you, Master, be willing to accompany me"

Ripples immediately issued an invitation.

"Alright, I'll accompany Miss Hua for a walk."

Wen Shirui nodded in agreement.

Hong Ling'er and Song Jia also stood up, apparently wanting to follow along. However, Lian Yi turned her head and domineeringly said to the two:

"Ladies, I'd like to spend some time alone with the young master. You two would be best served finding suitable bachelors yourselves and cultivating your relationships. Don't clutter up my space."

Hong Ling'er looked like a white lily, pursed her lips, and then looked at Wen Shige, apparently waiting for the other party to speak first. Wen Shige didn't disappoint Hong Ling'er either, and said with a smile:

"Miss Hong, we won't disturb Big Brother any further. Let's go see the koi fish at the lotus pond!"

"Good!"

Hong Ling'er readily agreed and gracefully followed Wen Shige to the lotus pond.

Song Jia then stuck out her tongue at the ripples and muttered, "Shameless," before walking to Wen Shixuan's side. She took out a prescription and handed it to him, then softly spoke:

"Master Wen, I happen to have a recipe here, obtained from someone else. It's said to be very effective. Could you take a look for me"

"Well, then come with me to the pharmacy. We'll have it made up and see the effect."

And so, the three pairs of people went in three different directions.

Ripples and Wen Shirui were sitting in a garden filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, chatting idly.

"Warm Brother, has the cause of Miss Liu's death been determined"

Miss Liu died from poisoning. The poison has been identified, but the method used by the perpetrator to administer it remains unknown.

Wen Shirui replied.

His hands were not idle either, brewing tea with a graceful and flowing series of movements. Coupled with his distinct white bones and fair hands, it was truly a sight to behold.

Liàn Yī leaned her head against the table, her gaze following the other person's hand as it moved. When a cup of clear tea was pushed in front of her, she smiled and thanked them before taking a sip immediately. After savoring it for a moment, she spoke:

"Brother Wen's tea artistry is excellent, the brewed tea is clear and refreshing, I really like it."

"Miss Hua, you flatter me."

Wen Shiru poured himself a cup of tea and said with a smile.

Ripples smiled and finished her cup of tea before continuing the previous topic.

"Where were we Ah! Poisoning! There are only a few ways to do it, in the end, it always comes down to getting it into their mouth."

Wen Shirui glanced at Lian Yi for a moment, poured another cup of tea for the other person, and then said:

"No poison was found in Miss Liu's throat."

"Huh So it's poison that spreads through skin contact."

Ripple spoke immediately.

Miss Liu showed no external wounds, and no traces of poison were found on her skin.

"Well then, perhaps the poison took effect after it was eaten."

It should be like this, some poisons are sealed in wax pellets, and they only break open the wax seal when they reach the stomach.

Ripples said with conviction, and then gave Wen Shirui a look that seemed to ask for praise.

Wen Shirui shook his head and then said:

"The coroner examined Miss Liu's body and found no wax bullet or poison in her stomach."

The fact that you could think of these things proves that the young lady from the Hua family is not as reckless as she appears.

"This is strange, it seems that the person who poisoned him was very skilled, they even let the Wen family find no flaws."

There was a buzz of whispers.

He then said, suspiciously:

"Could it be that someone doesn't want you to get married, so they took these drastic measures Wouldn't that make the three of us who entered the inner courtyard also in danger"

It's fine, don't worry! I still have a sprig of Ziyun flower. It shouldn't be an issue if some random poison comes my way.

Oh! Young Master Wen, I suggest you make a decision sooner rather than later. Don't drag it out and risk dragging us down with you in the end. It wouldn't be worth it.

Ripples chatted to herself while sipping her tea, not needing a response from Wen Shirui at all. She was very happy talking to herself and didn't seem awkward at all.

Wen Shiru estimated that this was also the first time he encountered someone as eccentric as Lianri. However, his good upbringing prevented him from interrupting the other party's actions, so he could only wait for Lianri to finish talking before opening his mouth:

"Miss Hua, please rest assured. Welcoming the three of you into the inner courtyard is naturally for better protection. The rest is just one step away from marriage. You need not worry."

"So that young master is saying you like me too"

Ripple immediately said excitedly.

"Yes, father also thinks the three of you are suitable wives. As for who to marry, it naturally depends on the wishes of the three brothers. After all, this is someone we will spend our lives with."

Wen Shirui did not directly answer Lian Yi's question.

"Brother Wen, I think we two are very suitable."

The ripples relentlessly pursue the path.

"No rush, there's still time. You can also get to know my second and third brothers, they are very excellent too, you have a lot of choices."

Wen Shirui took a sip of tea and said.

"Big Brother Wen, you really are something else. I've already made my feelings clear, why are you still trying to push me away I'm very unhappy about this."

Ripples pretended to be angry, slamming the teacup heavily onto the stone table, then turned and left the gazebo, taking the maid who was guarding a short distance away back to Ziyunjuan.

Wen Shirui didn't chase after her, watched Lianyi leave and then returned to his own Cui Bamboo courtyard.

Half an hour later, Wen Shige and Wen Shixuan arrived at their elder brother's courtyard one after the other.

What do you think

Hong Ling'er didn't have any spiritual energy fluctuations, but she claimed to have trained in martial arts to strengthen herself. She said she practiced flowery punches and embroidered legs, but I don't believe it.

Wen Shigao shook the folding fan in his hand and said.

"Song Jia is not only proficient in medicine, but also understands the use of poison."but Your Majesty doesn't dare to be careless and remains by her side."The Empress said that the Emperor had never had smallpox when he was young, so for now, he should not enter the Phoenix Nest Palac...
