Chapter 26b: Getting Married Grandly? Overcome Her Hurdle First
"My Lady, are you ill and need more medicine?" Dai Yue was somewhat worried.
"These medicines are not for me to take. They have other uses. Don"t buy all of them from one pharmacy. Buy them from several different pharmacies. Don"t let them see the entire prescription, understand?" Even though Luo Qing Luan didn"t feel at all that someone would discover her prescription, it was a habit for her to be vigilant. She did not want there to be any mishap.
After two hours, Dai Yue returned.
Luo Qing Luan opened all of the medicinal ingredients that were purchased on the table top and had Dai Yue go out and guard the door so as to avoid someone charging into her room like last time.
"Five taels of Hypnotic Blooms, twenty Belladona blossoms, also ten of the finest quality Mystic Seeds, adding to these ingredients……" Luo Qing Luan conscientiously checked them, a trace of a smiled appearing on her face.
She prepared to produce two kinds of drugs. One possessing the ability to render someone unconscious. No matter whether someone drank it or smelled it, they would still lose consciousness for a period of time. Moreover, there wouldn"t be any side effects. This kind of drug was the best kind to use to deal with any sudden circ.u.mstance, for instance, like one from last time. If at that time, she had carried this Blackout Powder with her then how could that b.a.s.t.a.r.dly loathsome man have taken advantage of her?
As for the second drug, it"s not so simple. Luo Qing Luan prepared to produce a kind of highly toxic drug. In order for her to use this kind of drug, the situation she ran into must be extremely dangerous. For the sake of self defense, why would she care whether the other party would die or not?
Her former self had the nickname Charming Ghost Doctor. That did not only refer to her outstanding appearance, it was more because of her viciousness and mercilessness. The face that she showed her enemies was ruthless and relentless. As long as someone provoked her, they would absolutely be dealt with by her to the point that they could neither beg for life nor beg for death, only regretting that they were born on this earth.
Sigh…….
Luo Qing Luan let out a long gentle breath. She couldn"t help thinking about her previous life again.
No matter how careful she was, in the end, wasn"t she still shot dead by a sneak attack! Otherwise, how would she come here?
Still, in this life, she absolutely wouldn"t allow this kind of thing to happen again!
It was night time before she could finally allocate the drugs.
She cleverly used three b.a.l.l.s of candle wax to seal three portions of Blackout Powder inside. Two portions were hidden inside the hollow pearl earrings on her earlobes. One portion was hidden inside the end of the hairpin that held her male style hair bun, accessible at any time. Moreover, these would not be easily discovered by anyone.
As for the Heart Severing Pill, because the quant.i.ty of medicinal ingredients that could be obtained was a problem, she only made three grains. She carefully put them away inside the fragrant sachet that she carried on her person, similarly concealed. These things were more or less enough for her to use. Luo Qing Luan properly put away the leftover medicinal ingredients and cleaned everything neatly. She even had Dai Yue light some incense so that no anomalies could be perceived whatsoever.
Just as she was making the bed for Luo Qing Luan, Dai Yue suddenly recalled something and turned her head around to say, "That"s right, My Lady, today, when I pa.s.sed by the Master"s room, it seemed as if I heard the side madam talking to the Master about the eldest lady"s wedding."
Could it be that Luo Qing Shuang was getting impatient about being married off?
Her lips curving up, Luo Qing Luan asked levelly. "What did Father"s Concubine say?"
Dai Yue pouted her lips. "Side Madam actually said to Master to have Fifth Prince personally come and escort Eldest Lady. However……isn"t the eldest lady getting sent off as a concubine? I"ve not heard of a concubine getting similar treatment as a wife?"
But once she thought about it, Luo Qing Luan already understood. Naturally, Luo Qing Shuan wasn"t resigned to her fate and wanted to struggle to obtain some face.
"Did Father agree to it?" She asked.
"Yes. The Master dotes on the side madam and eldest lady so much. How could he not agree? Master even said that in two days, he will personally visit Fifth Prince"s Mansion to engage in talks. He must fight for a little something for his eldest daughter and even said that he wants to send a bigger dowry!"
Unable to bear not crying out against injustice to her own mistress, Dai Yue said, "My Lady, you"re also Master"s daughter, and is even a child of his main wife, but why is Master treating you this way. You can"t even compare to a half of the Eldest Lady."
Luo Qing Luan did not care about this point at all. Early on, she already no longer considered Luo Cheng to be her father.
"It doesn"t matter. Elder Sister wants to marry Nangong Chen in a grand manner, but we"ll have to see whether her luck is good or bad."
Could it be so easy? Her vicious and merciless sister wanted to have her wish fulfilled, but things wouldn"t be allowed to go so smoothly!
To someone who respects me one meter, I will in turn respect them ten meters. Luo Qing Shuang wanted to put her on the road to death. Now that Luo Qing Shuang"s getting married she will also humiliate her.
On the second day, Luo Qing Luan deliberately got up early and went to the main hall. Sure enough, she saw w.a.n.g Xue Ru, Luo Qing Shuang, and Luo Cheng eating breakfast together. Fine side dishes were arranged on the table top. Meat porridge, steamed dragon dumplings, aslo lotus seed soup, everything that could be here is here.
"Why are you here?" Once he saw her, Luo Cheng felt somewhat uncomfortable.
"Eh? Qing Luan, you normally eat at your own courtyard. Why are you at our place today?" Only after w.a.n.g Xue Ru spoke in a strange manner did she suddenly realized. "Come, come, come and sit down to eat breakfast. Don"t be formal. In any case, we"re all one family."
"I"m only afraid that younger sister won"t be used to eating our breakfast?"
Luo Qing Shuang smiled before continuing. "Ordinarily, doesn"t younger sister like to eat vegetables the most? All of our dishes contain either meat or fish. I"m afraid that you may not be used to it."
How could she not tell that these three people simply did not take her to be a member of the family at all. Otherwise for so many years, how would they not even call her when it was meal time? Luo Qing Luan appeared as if she did not hear the meaning in between their lines and smiled. "No need. I"ve already eaten."
"Since you"ve already eaten, then why don"t you return to your own room. Girls should not run around all over the place and avoid falling into the water again, making an exhibition of herself." Luo Cheng said in a cold voice and even cast a glance at her filled with disgust.
No longer feeling anything towards whatever he had to say, Luo Qing Luan not only didn"t feel sad, she also didn"t leave. On the contrary, she sat down on a chair to the side and said softly. "I came to speak with Father regarding something."
Luo Qing Shuang put down her chopsticks and purposefully replied. "In a little while, Father will be visiting Fifth Prince"s Mansion to discuss the matter of our wedding. What……don"t tell me that younger sister is also anxious to be married off?"
Luo Qing Luan took a glance at her, then spoke levelly. "If Father truly want to persuade Fifth Prince to have a grand wedding for Elder Sister"s sake, then that will bring disaster upon our general"s mansion. May Father reconsider it."
Luo Cheng"s complexion darkened and put down his chopsticks with a bang, angrily shouting, "What nonsense are you saying?"
