As soon as Jiangmen Jiaojiao opened her eyes, she was paranoid that the prince had come to steal her

Chapter 529 The Soft Sword
After Xie Changqing left, Xie Zhaozhao carefully put away the necklace, then wrote a list and ordered people to prepare the medicinal materials.

Of course Xie Zhaozhao can prepare some powerful drugs.

Later in the evening, Hongxia returned to Dingxi Prince's Mansion and reported: "Miss, those people have accepted the posts I sent out."

"Just take it."

Xie Zhaozhao carefully looked through the "Compendium of Materia Medica" sent by Lu Jingrong and said calmly: "I will call you Princess from now on."

She likes this title now.

Hongxia responded "yes" with a smile.

Xie Zhaozhao carefully transcribed the "Compendium of Materia Medica". Hongxia saw that she had nothing to do here, so she retreated, leaving only Xiangrong waiting for the pen and ink. Xianggui served tea and quietly retreated to the side.

Half an hour later, Hongxiu brought over the medicinal materials ordered by Xie Zhaozhao.

Xie Zhaozhao took out the necklace that he had put away earlier.

Xie Zhaozhao's master, the Taoist Master, had learned a lot, so Xie Zhaozhao also dabbled in a wide range of subjects. She knew some simple tricks and magic formations.

The mechanism on this pendant is not complicated. You only need to tap a small protrusion on the back of the pendant, and spikes will be ejected from the gaps in the gems of the pendant.

There is a hollow under the bulge, and you need to use a thin and sharp knife to pry it open and place the drug inside.

Then carefully weld the mechanism with clever tricks.

In this way, the spike is always in contact with the drug when it is inside the mechanism. As soon as it pops out, the drug will take effect immediately.

After putting it back, continue to soak it in the drug for next time use.

Because the mechanism of this pendant is very clever and very small, it is inconvenient to remove it frequently and put medicine in it. Therefore, the medicine put in must have a long-lasting effect.

Xie Zhaozhao had thought of this before, so when preparing the medicinal materials, he also considered the efficacy of the medicine and specially added two more herbs.

But how to open this mechanism requires thinking of a way.

A sharp blade as thin as a wing is needed.

Ordinary daggers and swords are too thick to open this mechanism.

Xie Zhaozhao held the pendant and looked at it for a long time.

Xiangrong suggested: "Miss, why don't you try using a hairpin?"

"No way."

Xie Zhaozhao shook his head, "This thing is too small, and the hairpin is too big to get stuck in. If you insist on using the hairpin, it may be broken."

Xiang Rong said "Ah", "What should I do? I'll ask Hongxia Guard to ask if there are such thin blades in this house?"

"There's no need... Blades like that are extremely rare. Ordinary guards in the palace don't have them. Maybe there is one in the Treasure Pavilion in the palace..." Xie Zhaozhao pondered for a moment, thinking that he and Yun Qi would go look for it.

But thinking of Yun Qi, Xie Zhaozhao's mind suddenly became brighter and his eyes lit up.

Yes.

Yun Qi had a sword as thin as a cicada's wing.

Xie Zhaozhao asked: "When will His Highness come back? Has someone been sent to inform you?"

"I sent someone back in the afternoon and said I would accompany the young lady...and have dinner with the princess tonight. It's getting dark now, so I should be here soon."

"Well!"

Xie Zhaozhao put the pendant away and stood up, asking about the preparation of meals in the kitchen.

After learning that everything was ready, he just waited for Yun Qi to return home, then changed into light clothes and went to play with the medicinal materials prepared by his servants.

Halfway through playing with the medicinal materials, Yun Qi returned home.

Xie Zhaozhao stepped forward quickly, took the coat that Yun Qi took off and threw it to Xiang Rong, and then touched Yun Qi's belt with his hands.

Xiangrong and the two little girls who were serving them turned slightly red and quietly bowed their heads and exited.Yun Qi smiled lightly, put his hand on Xie Zhaozhao's, lowered his head and asked her: "What are you doing?"

He would not think that Xie Zhaozhao was so impatient.

Because her fingers were obviously groping very quickly, and there was no hint of ambiguity in them, but rather they seemed to be looking for something.

Is there anything in his waist that Xie Zhaozhao can look for like this?

"Soft sword!"

Xie Zhaozhao raised his eyes and asked him: "I remember that time, when Chu Nanxuan entered Wangyue Tower. You arrived suddenly and injured him with a soft sword. Where are the things?"

Yun Qi thought of that incident, and a gloomy look flashed in his eyes.

How could he not remember that time?
If he hadn't gone there in time, Xie Zhaozhao would have been bullied by Chu Nanxuan, and that was the time that made him very regretful about his control of Xie Zhaozhao's martial arts.

"Hey!"

Xie Zhaozhao put his hands on Yun Qi's cheeks, frowned and said, "I'm asking you something serious, I'm useful."

"...That sword can only be worn in a belt. I happened not to be wearing it today. If you want it, I will ask Lin Ye to go to Han Yuexuan to get it for you."

"it is good."

Yun Qi then ordered Lin Ye to get it.

Xie Zhaozhao approached him curiously and asked, "What's the mystery in the belt?"

"Well..." Yun Qi nodded and said: "The space between the belts is empty. The soft sword just happened to be coiled in, and the hilt of the sword happened to hit the jade stones in the middle of the belt... Outsiders couldn't see any clues. They just thought it was a piece of jade. Just a belt.”

It was also Yun Qi's weapon for self-defense and had been with Yun Qi for many years.

It's just that everything in Beijing is safe now, so Yun Qi rarely wears that belt.

While talking, Lin Ye brought the belt back.

This belt does look like a jade belt that is not very eye-catching.

When Yun Qi picked it up, the belt was still soft and dangling in his hand.

But when he buckled the belt in the middle, there was only a small "click" sound.

A white shadow flashed in front of Xie Zhaozhao's eyes, and the blade as thin as a cicada's wing appeared in front of him. It swayed slightly, and there was a cold light. You can imagine that this blade is as sharp as any other sword.

"Why do you suddenly want to see a sword? Do you want to play with it?"

Yun Qi handed the sword to Xie Zhaozhao's hand, pinched Xie Zhaozhao's wrist, and slashed twice casually. The sound of breaking the wind was extremely low, but it could not be ignored.

Xie Zhaozhao felt the candle beside him flicker. When he turned around, he saw that the wick of a candle had been cut off from the tip of the sword, which was as thin as a cicada's wing.

Xie Zhaozhao's eyes lit up: "I never knew you had such ability."

In the past, the two of them would fight every now and then, and Xie Zhaozhao would always be able to win a move or a half every time. At that time, she would always earnestly ask Yun Qi to practice hard, and he would definitely be able to beat her one day.

As a result, people kept it secret.

Yun Qi smiled faintly, lowered his head and kissed Xie Zhaozhao's forehead: "I'll play with you after dinner."

"I don't want to practice swordsmanship, I want to dismantle a small trap."

Yun Qi raised his eyebrows and said "Oh", "Use it however you want, even if you use it to pick flowers and cut vegetables."

Xie Zhaozhao laughed and said in his heart: I can't waste such a powerful thing like that.

The two had dinner together.

Yun Qi asked what mechanism was being dismantled, and Xie Zhaozhao told Yun Qi about Xie Changqing's visit in the afternoon. By the way, he mentioned the post he made, "I want to read a book."
