The group's favorite, the blind princess is both a doctor and a poisoner

dining room

The family of the Duke of Huguo was having dinner happily.

Ever since Su Yuejian came to the Duke's Mansion, they could no longer eat the food cooked by the previous chef. They were completely impressed by her.

Everyone at the table was enjoying the meal, especially Lu Lang, who had not been at home for the past few days and had missed several delicious meals.

He didn't expect that his niece is so beautiful and talented. She can make tea, practice medicine, and even cook. She is really a treasure!

He was concentrating on eating, determined to make up for what he had not eaten before!

Lu Zhan looked at Lu Lang who was eating meat crazily.

I was complaining in my heart that I could never get anything when my grandfather was around, and now there was my father who was such a big eater.

He muttered to himself and quickened the pace of picking up food with his hands.

The father and son ate voraciously as if they were competing with each other, and Mrs. Zhong couldn't bear to watch.

She looked up at Su Yuejian who was drinking the fish soup slowly and leisurely, and smiled.

It’s true that girls are the best. Look how well-behaved and cute Yue’er is!

She picked up the chopsticks and snatched the last piece of roasted lamb that Lu Zhan was about to pick up, put it in Su Yuejian's bowl, and said with a smile, "Eat more, Yue'er."

Lu Zhan stared at the piece of mutton eagerly, and Mrs. Zhong glared at him unhappily.

What are you looking at! You only know how to eat!

Lu Zhan felt his mother's disdainful gaze, smiled awkwardly, and raised his hand to pick up a piece of beef brisket for Su Yuejian, "Mother is right, cousin Yue'er, eat more."

Su Yuejian looked up and smiled brightly, "Thank you, aunt, and thank you, cousin."

Lu Zhan said, "No, I've been busy with official duties for the past few days and haven't had time. Tomorrow is a day off, so how about I take you out to play?"

"I heard that Shuiyunjian has launched a lot of new incense, and Zuixianlou has released a lot of dishes and cakes."

Before Su Yuejian could answer, Lu Lang spoke directly, "How can the food at Zuixianlou be as delicious as Yue'er's? Can't you pick a better place to take your sister to play?"

Mrs. Zhong also followed up, "Your father is right. Everyone says that the food at Shuiyunjian is delicious. I think they can't even cook as much as Yue'er!"

He also nodded. "That's right. Yue'er has made several varieties of that so-called Sushan that's all the rage in Kyoto lately. They're so sweet and delicious, much better than the ones sold at Zuixianlou!"

He loves desserts the most. Su Yuejian makes new things every day. Now she can't live without Su Yuejian.

The Duke and his wife also nodded in agreement.

Their Xiaoyueer is the best!

Su Yuejian didn't care. After all, those things in Shuiyunjian were made by her, so it didn't matter whether she went or not.

Lu Lang said, "Xiao Yue'er, my uncle is also taking a day off tomorrow, how about we play chess at home?"

He had collected the two chess manuals from Su Yuejian and studied them for quite some time. Yesterday, he saw Su Yuejian and Lu Zhan playing chess. Their chess skills were so superb that he felt itchy to play chess. He had wanted to compete with her for a long time!

Lu Zhan was unhappy, "Father, Yue'er has been bored at home for several days, it's time to let Yue'er go out and play more!"

He thought for a moment, his eyes lighting up as he said, "By the way, there's an auction at the Wanbao Pavilion tomorrow. Does Yue'er want to go and see it?"

Lu Lang glared at Lu Zhan with his beard puffed out.

Brat! I just fought with him for the meat, and now I'm fighting with him for Xiaoyue'er!

Wanbao Pavilion? Auction?

Su Yuejian raised her eyebrows slightly and showed interest.

She smiled and nodded, "Okay, I haven't been to an auction yet!"

Looking at her bright smile and expectant expression, everyone at the dinner table felt distressed again.

The auction at Wanbao Pavilion is held every month. The noble ladies and gentlemen in Kyoto are used to it. It is just an ordinary activity for them.

Madam Lu said softly, "Then Yue'er will go and have fun with your brother tomorrow!"

Lu Zhenting also said, "Yes, Xiaoyue can buy whatever she likes, even if it means buying up everything in the auction!"

The corners of Su Yue's mouth twitched. Grandfather was really domineering!

She didn't really want to buy anything, but was simply curious about what the auction would be like.

However, Lu Zhenting's words still touched her, and she smiled sweetly, "Thank you, Grandpa!"

next day

Lu Zhan was standing at the gate of Zither Garden waiting when he saw Su Yuejian approaching.

Today she was wearing a light purple dress embroidered with pale pink crabapple flowers. The light cloud-colored waist belt further highlighted her slim figure. A delicate white jade pearl tassel pendant hung around her waist, making her look very cool and elegant.

Lu Zhan couldn't help but feel confused when he saw her coming out wearing a veil hat of the same color.

"Yue'er, why are you wearing a veil?"

Su Yuejian smiled lightly, "Third brother, this is called being low-key."

Lu Zhan was stunned at first, then he remembered that his servant Tingfeng had told him that the two times Su Yuejian came to the Duke of Huguo's Mansion, the people waiting to see Su Yuejian at the door had blocked the road, all wanting to catch a glimpse of Tianjin's most beautiful woman again.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhan nodded secretly. Yue'er was really thoughtful.

Su Yuejian didn't know what Lu Zhan was thinking. The sun was quite strong at noon in summer, and she wore a veil simply because she was afraid of getting sunburned.

Su Yuejian instructed Qiulan and Xiaxiang to dry the herbs in the yard, and went out with Yuzhu, Yinxin, Lu Zhan and Tingfeng.

In the carriage, Su Yuejian asked curiously,

"Third brother, what are you selling at the Wanbao Pavilion auction?"

Lu Zhan explained to her, "This Wanbao Pavilion contains all kinds of rare treasures from the four kingdoms of the world, various weapons, rare medicinal herbs, precious jewelry, historical books, antiques, calligraphy and paintings... In short, it has everything."

"The auction takes place every month. The items up for auction are random and will only be announced on the day of the auction. Not only dignitaries and wealthy businessmen attend the auction, but also heroes from various sects in the martial arts world. It can be said to be extremely lively."

After hearing what Lu Zhan said, Su Yuejian became even more curious.

"Whose property is this Wanbao Pavilion?"

Lu Zhan shook his head. "I heard the owner behind this is a wealthy businessman from the Jiangnan area. I think he must be a very powerful family. This Wanbao Pavilion's business is spread all over the four countries."

Su Yuejian nodded.

Just now, when I heard Lu Zhan say that there might be some precious medicinal herbs, I couldn't help but feel more excited.

Soon, the carriage stopped.

Lu Zhan got off the carriage first, and Yuzhu and Yinxin followed closely behind, supporting Su Yuejian.

Compared with the surrounding shops, Wanbao Pavilion stands like a pagoda. Looking at the majestic and imposing pavilion in front of him, Su Yuejian couldn't help but brighten his eyes.

Entering the Wanbao Pavilion, the hall is bright and spacious. The top of the attic is an exquisite caisson, the floor is paved with large pieces of jade bricks, a huge display stand is placed in the middle, and rare antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and exquisite porcelain ornaments are placed around it, all of which reveal an atmosphere of luxury.

The entire Wanbao Pavilion has six floors, and each floor has a unique layout. Some are collection areas for rare ancient books, some are display rooms for exquisite handicrafts, and some are arsenals for finely crafted hidden weapons, which are dazzling.

Su Yuejian was looking around carefully when she suddenly saw a familiar figure entering Room 3 on the third floor. Su Yuejian was startled and her face turned unhappy in an instant.

It's so unlucky that I meet this villain Xiao Chengchang when I go out!
