Chapter 46: The Antidote to Impropriety
Cannibalism? Why does the temple still eat people?
Old Madam Qiao was also stunned when she heard this.
But before she could think about it, Chen opened her mouth and reminded: "Mother, why did you forget that the Queen Mother's birthday is just a few days away." Even if you want to pray for blessings, you have to wait until after the birthday feast is over. ”
"Yes, look at my memory, I almost forgot about it in my joy."
"Then wait until after the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, Shu'er's body is completely well, and let's talk about it then."
Old Madam Qiao was talking, and she heard Qiao Wanshu "wail" again.
[Isn't it? So soon, the old emperor is going to start digging holes? 】
Immediately, the crowd pricked up their ears.
No one noticed that there was also a person outside the door, who took back the steps he was about to take.
Old General Chen had just returned from the palace and happened to hear Qiao Wanshu's heart.
He was afraid that his rash appearance would interrupt her, so he held his breath and stood outside the door and listened.
Qiao Wanshu didn't realize that she had become the focus of everyone's attention again, and she recalled it in her heart.
[The emperor is waiting to dig a pit for the Qiao family at the queen mother's birthday banquet. 】
[When the time comes, the third brother will be given a marriage to the county lord of Wanning, who is an arrogant and domineering master, and when he is at home, he will disturb the house. After leaving the cabinet, he became the emperor's eyeliner, which caused the Qiao family to blame at every turn. 】
[Pity my third brother for his graceful and suave life, and he couldn't escape her clutches until he died. 】
[Not to mention that my grandfather was also taken advantage of by the emperor to seize military power. Qiao's family...... This turmoil is continuous, and it is also a big wind. 】
When they heard this, they all had different thoughts.
Especially Qiao Jinghan, his eyes widened and he stared at Qiao Wanshu in disbelief.
How could he have such a tragic fate?
The notoriety of the county lord of Wanning is known and known to everyone in the capital.
Do you want him to marry that female devil?
Then he would rather die!
Qiao Zhongtian groaned in his heart: Since he already knew that the emperor was going to give the third child a marriage, he must prepare early.
Although it is the Queen Mother's birthday in two days, the time is a little rushed, but it is not without means of evasion.
When General Chen heard that the emperor actually wanted to take away his military power, his heart was also cold.
I think he has spent his life serving the country and the people, guarding the border for decades, and I don't know how many family funs he missed.
In the end, what was exchanged was the jealousy of the master, and the tragic ending of the bird's bow.
He can even imagine how the emperor will knead the Chen family after losing military power.
"General, won't you come in the door?"
An inquiry came from behind him.
It was the maid who came to deliver the medicine, and when she saw General Chen standing at the door hesitating, she opened her mouth.
"This is medicine for Shu'er? Give it to me. ”
Old General Chen took the medicine bowl in her hand and walked in.
"Mrs. in-laws, I heard that Shu'er is fine, so I'll take a look."
He handed over the medicine bowl: "This is sent by the maid of your mansion, I will take it by the way." ”
Qiao Wanshu saw that her grandfather was sweating on his forehead and panting faintly, and knew that he was in a hurry.
Thinking that he is old and has to worry about himself, he is also distressed at the moment.
"The old general is hard, Shu'er is critically ill, and you have to go to the palace to get typhoid medicine."
Old Madam Qiao reminded Qiao Wanshu with a word.
[Typhoid fever? That's right! The emperor pretended that his grandfather had neglected the management of the troops, which led to many soldiers being infected with typhoid fever and serious attrition! 】
[On this ground, he took away his grandfather's military power! 】
[But who would have thought that the dog emperor was ruthless. He really couldn't find fault with his grandfather, so he ordered the spies planted in the army to poison the soldiers' water sources! 】
Chen's fingers moved, and he subconsciously wanted to cover his lips and exclaim.
Fortunately, she held back in time, but just reached out and flicked Qiao Wanshu's forehead, and tested the temperature of her forehead again.
can be regarded as covering up her gaffe just now.
And General Chen's complexion became very ugly.
He knew that the plague that swept through the army was very strange.
But I never imagined that the mastermind behind the scenes would be the emperor!
It was he and the soldiers who risked their lives and loyally guarded the Ninety-Five!
Just to weaken the Chen family and take away the military power in his hands, he did not hesitate to take the lives of hundreds of soldiers!
And behind them, there are the joys and sorrows and expectations of thousands of families.
At this moment, General Chen's heart was already cold.
Although he governs the army strictly, he loves soldiers like a son.
In terms of eating, drinking, and living, he has never been sloppy and sloppy.
So when an epidemic suddenly appeared in the army that resembled typhoid fever, but was slightly different, he wondered what was wrong.
It turns out that it is not an infectious disease, but someone who poisoned it!
Qiao Wanshu saw that her father and mother and others suddenly fell silent, and she suddenly felt curious.
What's wrong? Why didn't everyone speak? 】
Chen came back to his senses and handed Qiao Wanshu to Mama Gu: "Mama, please hug Shu'er, I'll feed her medicine." ”
[Feed the medicine? 】
Qiao Wanshu was startled, and struggled with her hands and feet.
[Didn't I drink the medicine just now, what kind of medicine is this?] I don't drink it, it's bitter to death! 】
Chen could only coax softly: "Shu'er, your body is too weak now." The medicinal properties just now, although diluted, are not something that your body can bear. ”
"This medicine strengthens the foundation and cultivates the yuan, can strengthen the vitality, and only after drinking it can the medicinal properties be neutralized, and there will be no sequelae."
She completely regarded Qiao Wanshu as an adult, so she would explain so seriously.
And she also believes that Shu'er understands these words completely.
Qiao Wanshu's struggle was really small.
Although he was still reluctant, even if his face was wrinkled into bitter gourd, he still drank all the decoction.
"Look, Shu'er is so well-behaved. As long as you reason with her, she understands everything. ”
Chen couldn't help but praise it.
The crowd also chimed in.
Especially Qiao Jinghan, she came directly to Qiao Wanshu's side and gently poked her fleshy little face with her fingertips.
"Shu'er, the third brother doesn't ask for anything else, only that you will be free from illness and disaster in the future."
"You know, you almost scared us all to death!"
Qiao Wanshu didn't care about complaining, and the third brother's subordinates were not serious.
He complained with a sad face: [Wow, this medicine is too bitter! 】
[Is it so bitter when Chinese medicine is boiled out?] 】
[Then can you put some honey on me, or simply stuff me with a piece of starch candy sweet mouth!] 】
Everyone saw her little face wrinkled, pitiful and funny, and everyone showed a smile that couldn't help but smile.
Then I heard Qiao Wanshu let out a long sigh.
[You say, the fog camouflage grass is a kind of poison, right? 】
[If it's a poison, there will be an antidote, right?] 】
[The antidote to the eight classics, which one is not bitter? How can it be an exception to the fog hidden grass, the antidote is unimaginable! 】
[Who could have known that the antidote to the poison was so simple that it was outrageously simple, and it was even one of the most common plants! 】
