Chapter 603 Extraordinary Ability
Refining poison was not simple. Would Liu Sanniang really teach Su Yanyu this ability?
Marquis Su and Mrs. Su had never expected this. They felt that Su Yanyu would just be treated as an errand boy.
Both of them had mixed feelings and remained in disbelief.
Su Yanyu said seriously, “Father, Mother, don’t tell anyone about this. Miss Liu is teaching me seriously. I’ve already started to make incense.”
Making incense was the most difficult.
There were thousands to tens of thousands of types of insects that could be made into poison. Humans could only live for a hundred years, so they naturally could not learn it all.
Marquis Su looked at Su Yanyu with mixed feelings.
Mrs. Su was capable, and Su Yanyu was not bad either. If he could master the skill of refining poison, who would dare to provoke him in the future?
Mrs. Su also thought of the same thing as Marquis Su. She smiled and said, “Since Miss Liu really wants to teach you, you have to learn it diligently. Don’t ruin her reputation.”
Su Yanyu answered seriously. “Miss Liu said that since I’ve become her disciple, I have to remember that I can’t do evil. I naturally won’t let her down.”
Mrs. Su nodded. “Good. You’re Miss Liu’s first disciple. You have to do a good job and set a good example for your junior brothers.”
Su Yanyu nodded. He thought so too.
Mrs. Su looked at Marquis Su. “Father and Mother will support you fully.”
Marquis Su nodded. “Yes.”
Although he didn’t have many children, they were all outstanding.
Su Yanxue had given birth to a prince in the palace. Her status was stable and she was doted upon.
If Su Yanyu mastered refining poison, he would also be an extraordinary person.
Su Yanyu instructed the servants to prepare a few good dishes while he returned to the courtyard to rest.
When he entered the courtyard, a servant came to report. “Your Lordship, while you were away, Young Master Mu, Young Master Li, and Young Master Cheng each wrote a letter to you. They are kept on the table in the study.”
Su Yanyu remembered that they had already gone to the army camp. He did not know how they were doing. It had been a few months.
Su Yanyu went to the study and opened the letters.
The first letter to read was from Mu Cong. After Mu Cong expressed his gratitude, he started to tell Su Yanyu about his life in the army. He said that Su Yanyu would never know how hard it was in the army. There were a few times when he broke down and cried, but he persevered. He even wrote that if he stood in front of Su Yanyu now, he would definitely not recognize him.
Li Wei and Cheng Yan also expressed their gratitude and said some things.
Su Yanyu thought for a moment and asked the servants to prepare a brush and ink. He wanted to write a reply to Mu Cong and the others.
He disclosed to Mu Cong and the others that he had successfully become Liu Sanniang’s disciple, but Su Yanyu did not mention anything about refining poison. He had not even started ding it yet. If he could not learn it, wouldn’t it be embarrassing?
After sealing the letter and letting the servant send it out, he returned to his room to sleep.
After waking up, he went to the storeroom to get some herbs to prepare to make incense. He had to do all of this himself. From controlling the fire to extracting the smell of the herbs, he could not let anyone interfere.
The servant reported everything to Marquis Su and Mrs. Su.
Mrs. Su said, “Make sure he doesn’t tire himself out.”
Marquis Su muttered, “Madam, don’t you suspect that Miss Liu is fooling with our son?”
Mrs. Su answered with a smile. “I’m good at judging people. Miss Liu is not that kind of person. Since she has accepted Yanyu seriously as her disciple, she won’t lie to him. What she teaches Yu will naturally be extraordinary.”
Marquis Su was still suspicious. “Then, how did Miss Liu learn to refine poison? Perhaps she doesn’t even know how to do it herself.”
Mrs. Su smiled. “If you don’t believe it, just wait and see. Perhaps in the future, when you’re sick, you won’t even need a doctor.”
Marquis Su was speechless. Eat worms? Just thinking about it made him shiver. He definitely did not want to eat worms and insects.
Mrs. Su grabbed Marquis Su’s hand and said gently, “You are Yanyu’s father. As your son, Yanyu will be filial to you. You should believe me. I will never teach Yu to be an unfilial person.”
Mrs. Su’s gentleness softened Marquis Su’s heart.
Looking at Mrs. Su, Marquis Su couldn’t help but praise. “Madam, you’re meticulous. We’ve been married for many years, so, of course I believe you.”
Mrs. Su smiled gently.
Marquis Su felt that Mrs. Su knew him better than he knew himself. Every time he was bothered by something, Mrs. Su would gently help him get rid of it.
After thinking about it carefully, Marquis Su felt that what Mrs. Su said made sense.
Su Yanyu was focused on making incense. This was better than him going out to fool around, right?
The emperor was starting to get old.
The Crown Prince and the Third Prince were both snobbish. It was hard to say what the situation would be like in the future, so the more capable one was, the better.
Although the Crown Prince was the rightful successor, the Third Prince was also a capable person. It was hard to say if the Crown Prince could successfully inherit the throne.
As the sky gradually darkened, a carriage stopped at the entrance of the palace.
Hu Yu and Liu Yuanyuan could not enter. There were powerful runes carved on the palace door. The runes prevented demons from entering the palace.
Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan went in. Liu Sanniang said to Liu Yuanyuan and Hu Yu, “Take a walk around or go home and rest.”
