"…"

Xiahou Lian was the same as Xiahou Ling. He did not expect Xiahou Zhong to react like this, and looking at this person's serious expression, it was obvious that he did not realize that his words were meant to tease him, right?

As the target of his ridicule, Xiahou Lian could only reply speechlessly: "Big Brother, what are you thinking?"

Although Xiahou Lian only had two concubines in the backyard and no main wife, there was no need for him to be like this, right?

Could it be that he had been staring at someone for too long? Could it be that he wanted to marry them into his family?

What kind of logic was this?

"I already have two concubines in my backyard, I temporarily won't take any more concubines."

Xiahou Lian originally did not want to explain in such a way, but looking at Xia Hou Zhong's expression while staring at him, he knew that if he did not, Xia Hou Zhong would most likely not let him go.

"And brother... "Your little brother has a very high opinion of her. It's not like any woman would marry into his family."

Of the two concubines on Xiahou Lian's backyard, one was the Prime Minister's concubine and the other was a member of the Wen Family.

One had the right, one had the money.

"Oh, it's not that I'm talking about you, but even if you wanted to marry this woman into your family, as your brother, I wouldn't agree."

Hearing Xiahou Lian's explanation, Xia Hou Zhong nodded his head in satisfaction, and then said himself, "Wearing so little doesn't match our royal family's style at all.

"…"

Brother, I beg of you, can you please stop? Didn't you see that the poison master before you had already secretly rolled his eyes? Aren't you afraid that the other party will directly smack the poison in your face?

Xiahou Lian took a glance at the veiled lady standing in front of him. Although she was wearing a veil, her eyes were exposed, and their voices were not soft, so it was natural for the other party to hear her.

And it just so happened that Xiahou Lian saw the other party rolling his eyes at him.

"Third brother, your elder brother is truly thinking for your sake! Why haven't you thanked him yet?"

At this moment, Xiahou Ling had already recovered his cold expression. Seeing that the two were still staring at each other, he couldn't help but speak out.

In his heart, however, he was extremely disdainful towards these two. One was too honest, and the other was too gentle. Becoming brothers with these two people was really his shame.

"Thank you for your advice, third brother. I will remember it."

When Xiahou Lian heard Xiahou Ling's words, he took the opportunity to tell Xiahou Zhong this way.

"Third brother will be satisfied if he can remember your words in his heart."

Xia Hou Zhong nodded, and looked at Xiahou Lian's performance with satisfaction. After all, as his big brother, he had many brothers and sisters behind him.

Otherwise, if he were to casually marry someone into his clan, it would be fine as long as he had a good character. But if it was not good, wouldn't it be disgrace to their royal family?

This was unacceptable!

The veiled woman standing in front of Xiahou Zhong couldn't help but roll her eyes in her heart when she heard their conversation. She even spat at the same time. Did these three think they were princes were amazing?

She, as a poison master, would become his concubine? Even if she did deserve it, she would at least become the main wife. Go and dream it all out for her!

"However, this Poison Master..." Why would he appear in the capital? "

After the joke, Xiahou Lian suddenly looked at the three veiled ladies and asked Xia Hou Ling: "Second Brother, what do you think?"

"It's not like the capital has said that poison masters can't come. It's normal for them to appear here. What questions do you have?"

However, Xia Hou Ling did not directly answer the question. Instead, he replied half-heartedly, and then, he ignored Xiahou Lian and continued to eat the small dishes in front of him with his chopsticks.

Seeing this, Xiahou Lian glanced at Xia Hou Zhong who was already drinking, his mouth moved slightly and he did not speak anymore. Instead, he turned around and sat in silence, as if he was thinking about something.

Seeing that he did not continue to ask questions, Xia Hou Ling looked at the veiled lady in front of him and frowned slightly. Soon after, her eyebrows returned to normal, and she continued to eat her food with a calm expression.

Why would poison masters appear in the capital?

Actually, he shouldn't have asked. It wasn't as if poison masters had never appeared in the capital before, it was just that there was only one person at that time.

But now, there were actually three people who appeared at once, and they were even in the number one medicine shop in the capital, which caused people to be suspicious of the origins of this wan chun tang.

Therefore, Xiahou Lian's previous question should have been: Why did this Poison Master appear in the wan chun tang, and why did three of them appear at once?

In addition, from that previous poison master's perspective, she was extremely proud and pleased with herself. From this, it could be seen how such a proud poison master could turn into the appearance of these three, willingly acting as a servant girl to carry the plate.

This was what Xiahou Ling was puzzled about.

Indeed, with the war in the neighboring countries, everyone had rushed to the capital. First, there were the refugees, and then there were the poison masters. It was hard to tell if there would be anyone else who would show up.

Under Heaven... Could it be that he was really going to fall into chaos?

When he thought of this, Xiahou Ling couldn't help but think of state advisor, who was still in closed door cultivation. He didn't know when state advisor would come out, so he might as well let them see the stars at night.

"Since Lord Li Shaoqing no longer has anything else to do, let's continue with the third round."

The shopkeeper's previous words continued on with the medical appraisal meeting.

"First of all, let me briefly introduce the contents and requirements of the third round of the competition."

"The third round of the competition is related to poison."

The shopkeeper then gave everyone some time to listen and think before slowly continuing.

"This so-called poison, everyone should be able to think of poison and detoxification."

"That's right. In that case, the third round's competition will be centered around poison and detoxification."

Hearing the shopkeeper talk about the poison competition, everyone had indeed been thinking about these two things. Now that the shopkeeper had spoken, they all knew what he was thinking.

In the process of practicing medicine, if there were any patients who were poisoned, or if there were any poisons, then it was natural that he would learn the skill detoxification.

However, detoxifying the poison was easy to understand, so what was the use of poison?

"Shopkeeper, how do you explain this poison?" Do you want us to be poisoned first? "

Immediately, someone raised this question.
