Chapter 361: Matches are made in heaven
Xiaosi thought for a moment and suddenly reached out to his brother.
Shen Yuanzhan was slightly startled at first, then his eyes showed affection, and he said warmly: "Brother seems to have not hugged Xiaosi for a long time."
He leaned over and picked up Xiaosi, bumping her gently, his face filled with emotion, "Xiaosi has grown up."
Xiao Si looked at his brother, but at this moment he couldn't help but pursed his lips, "Brother, did someone say something in front of you?"
Shen Yuanzhan raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and asked with a smile: "Why did Xiaosi say this?"
Xiaosi clasped his fingers seriously, "Xiaosi is only six years old, not yet old enough to participate in political affairs! But my brother asked Xiaosi to come and observe today. Xiaosi feels that my brother is doing it for others to see."
When Shen Yuanzhan heard this, he couldn't help but hug Xiao Si tightly in his arms, his face full of relief and doting.
"Our juniors are really smart."
Shen Yuanzhan discovered that after becoming an emperor, he would hear all kinds of different voices, including speculation, suspicion, flattery and even temptation.
Among the notes I received over the past few days, in addition to those who slandered Qiao Zhongguo, there were also those who were suspicious of Xiaosi, and their words were quite sharp.
He had indeed deliberately called Xiao Si to discuss matters today. He wanted to let the ministers who had been in charge know that he and Xiao Si had a deep love for each other and would not tolerate any instigation.
Shen Yuanzhan hugged Xiao Si and sat on the dragon chair behind the jade case, and said sincerely:
"Xiao Si, due to my status, someone may say some inappropriate words in front of my brother and Xiao Si in the future."
"But my brother hopes that Xiaosi knows that Xiaosi is the heart of my brother and my mother, and the softest being in my brother's heart."
"Brother will not be swayed by other people's words, and Xiaosi cannot give up because of other people's words."
"In such a huge country, it is more difficult to maintain a business than to start a business. Xiaosi is naturally smart and has a great heart at a young age. He will definitely be my brother's biggest helper in the future."
"Whether Xiaosi wants to show his ambitions in the court in the future, or wants to fight on the battlefield like Mr. Qiao, my brother will not influence Xiaosi's choice. I only hope that Xiaosi will never bury his own nature and talents."
"Brother is really looking forward to that day, when I see Xiao Si standing shiningly in front of everyone. He is the most high-spirited young man in the entire Great Yong Dynasty!"
Shen Yuanzhan spoke warmly, his tone was slow and sincere, and he gently patted Xiaosi's back with his right hand.
Xiao Si's eyes turned red when he heard this, and finally couldn't help but plunge into his brother's arms.
"Brother, they don't understand! Brother is Xiaosi's God, a father-like existence, and Xiaosi's eternal guide."
"Xiaosi will not listen to their nonsense. Xiaosi must grow up quickly and become my brother's right-hand man!"
Shen Yuanzhan rested his chin on Xiaosi's head, and couldn't help but feel sore eyes after hearing this.
Xiaosi never received the love of his father. It can even be said that his birth was a tragedy planned by his father.
He would never tell Xiaosi the secret of returning to Xiyuan.
His Xiao Si is precocious, sensitive but positive and optimistic. She is too sensible. He really loves Xiao Si very much.
"Okay, then brother, just wait until Xiaosi grows up quickly and grows into a towering tree, and can also protect him from the wind and rain, okay?"
The two brothers hugged each other on the dragon chair, chatting softly. Occasionally, they could not help but laugh when they recalled the past.
Liufuzi turned to look at the two people sitting on the seat. At this moment, he felt from the bottom of his heart that the Holy Emperor and Prince Ling were brothers, but more like father and son.
----
Time passed by in silence.
Jiaojiao had less worries and became more and more like a complete child. She just played around during the day, and fell asleep soundly at night, completely free of worries.
Xiao Si is still a little bit tired and has to come to Qiao Mansion to practice martial arts every other day.
In this way, the day came to the tenth day of September, which was the day when Tan Hanchi and Zuo Anning got married.
The new emperor gave Tan Hanchi a house in the east of the city. The house was not big, but it was elegant.
At this time, the house had already been decorated with lanterns, hung with red silk, and guests were coming and going.
Tan Hanchi lost his mother when he was young. His father left and there was no news. It was his uncle and aunt who raised him.
For this wedding, Tan Hanchi invited them early and respected them as the man's elders.
Mrs. Qiao knew that Tan Hanchi didn't have many people in Beijing, so she helped out and made sure the wedding was a success!
Qiao Tianjing was already married, so he helped Tan Hanchi entertain guests in the Tan Mansion. Qiao Diyi naturally became the so-called "head friend"!
Tan Hanchi rode a tall horse and led a group of friends to the Duke of Yan's Mansion to welcome his bride!
On this side, Jiaojiao became Zuo Anning's bride-to-be as she wished, and she fell in love with Miss Xiao Er early in the morning.
The sisters were having fun around Zuo Aning, who had finished dressing up, when suddenly there was the sound of firecrackers in front of them, and then there was noise all the way.
Xiao Qianyue's eyes lit up when she heard this: "Sisters, they are here!"
The other little sisters were still a little reserved, while Xiao Qianyue and Qiao Jiaojiao rolled up their sleeves.
"Look at us! If you want to marry An Ning, you must show some color to Tan!"
Dong dong dong--
There was a knock on the courtyard door.
Xiao Qianyue stopped in the courtyard and asked in a loud voice: "Who is this young master?"
There were boos outside the door. Qiao Diyi patted Tan Hanchi on the shoulder and replied with a smile: "The person coming is Mr. Tan Jiajun, a literary star of Hanlin Academy!"
Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes lit up when she heard that the person who answered was her second brother. She opened her little voice and asked in a milky voice:
"I know your purpose of coming, and I ask, what do you ask for?"
When people outside the door heard a baby's voice inside, they were all surprised, but Tan Hanchi smiled knowingly.
He straightened his clothes, which were slightly messy from being pushed all the way, and said with a smile:
"I would like to ask the girl at the door to tell you:
Appreciating the greenery in spring, walking on the stream in summer, writing under the trees in autumn, watching the snow in the house in winter, the four seasons are always with each other, and they stay with each other year after year.
I beg Prime Minister Bai, and ask Miss Zuo if she would like her? "
As soon as he said this, there were shouts from inside and outside the door. The girls covered their mouths and snickered, while the young people laughed loudly.
Zuo Anning heard these words in the room, her face turned red, but her heart felt sweet.
The gentleman opposite the screen had already made a solemn promise to her.
Xiao Qianyue knew that An Ning was very satisfied with this marriage. She raised her eyebrows and said, "Hand over the red envelope and I will weigh it!"
When the people outside the door heard this, they immediately pushed the big red seal under the door, and everyone shouted in unison:
"Hurry up and lay out the Baizi Tent, and wait for the Qixiang Cart to be blocked. May I ask if the makeup has been completed? The east is about to see the dawn!"
"Excuse me! Excuse me! Excuse me! Zhuang Chengwei!"
The door of the courtyard was clicked loudly, which showed the sincerity of welcoming the bride.
Qiao Jiaojiao laughed so hard that the corners of her mouth almost split, and she clapped her hands in excitement!
Aunt Zhu, who had been serving Zuo Anning since childhood, was so happy that her eyes were red, and she stepped forward to open the courtyard door herself.
The next moment, the wedding group "hooted" and pushed Tan Hanchi in like a swarm of swarms.
The crowd instantly made a fuss, and laughter and cheers floated across the courtyard, almost resounding throughout the entire Yanguo Palace.
Everyone surrounded the newlyweds and walked out, and congratulations filled their ears.
It's just that: good marriages are made long ago, and couples are made in heaven.
Chapter 362 The Qiao family has a new baby
September 15th is Jiaojiao's second birthday.
She has only been in this world for two years, but she seems to have done a lot.
Everyone in the capital caught wind of the news and sent birthday gifts early that day.
After all, he is the Lord of Yongle County who has been personally consecrated by the Holy Emperor, so he still has to have this reputation.
Xiaosi was still the first one to arrive among all the guests. Jiaojiao had just been dug out of the bed by Mrs. Qiao, and he was already waiting aside with a smile.
"Sister Qiao, your birthday gift!"
Qiao Jiaojiao was sleepy. She glanced at the sound and was almost blinded by the light.
What a beautiful string of Dongzhu!
"Sister Qiao, this is something from Xiaosi's private treasury. The brightest one is for Sister Qiao!"
Xiaosi raised her face and her bright eyes seemed to say: Sister Qiao, please praise me!
"Thank you, Xiaosi, it's so beautiful! I like it so much! I'm going to wear it today!"
Qiao Jiaojiao laughed out loud and stretched out her hand towards Xiao Si.
Xiaosi immediately wrapped the string of Dongzhu carefully around her delicate little hand, and both of them smiled into squinting eyes.
When Mrs. Qiao saw this, she shook her head with a smile, combed Jiaojiao's hair herself, and let them go to play.
Jiaojiao's second birthday was not planned to be a grand event, so the whole family could just sit down and have a meal together.
However, the Holy Emperor told the Queen a few days ago that she was coming, so she had to make preparations carefully.
When it was time for dinner, the Xiao family, Duke Yan, Tan Hanchi and Zuo Anning all came. Everyone was chatting and laughing in the hall, and soon Shen Yuanzhan and Xiao Qianlan also came incognito.
"Brother Emperor! Sister Xiao!"
Qiao Jiaojiao jumped out to greet her and was picked up by Shen Yuanzhan.
Before he opened his mouth to speak, Jiaojiao had already covered his mouth with her hand.
"Brother Emperor, we have agreed today that you are not allowed to mention Jiaojiao peeing her pants!"
If other people saw this scene, their jaws would drop in shock, but Jiaojiao still "goes her own way" and is very comfortable.
She had long discovered that what the emperor's brother wanted was this kind of casualness and closeness, especially to her and Xiao Si.
Sure enough, Shen Yuanzhan was not angry at Qiao Jiaojiao's "unbridled" behavior, but his eyes were full of smiles.
"Brother had forgotten it a long time ago. Jiaojiao brought it up again. I think back then--"
"Ahhh! I won't listen, I won't listen!"
Qiao Jiaojiao hurriedly covered her ears, and then thrust herself onto Xiao Qianlan again!
"Sister Xiao! I want Sister Xiao to hug me!"
Shen Yuanzhan couldn't help but laugh when he saw Qiao Jiaojiao looking like this.
"Jiaojiao, your sister Xiao can't hug you now. Come on, it's my brother who will hug you!"
When Qiao Jiaojiao heard this, her eyes lit up.
【ah! Could it be that Sister Xiao is pregnant? Is it the little emperor's grandson in the original work? great! 】
[The Queen Mother must be very happy to hear that, it's so perfect! 】
When Shen Yuanzhan saw that Qiao Jiaojiao had guessed it, he couldn't help but scratch her little nose with his fingers.
"Little clever devil."
At this time, everyone came forward to salute, and Shen Yuanzhan smiled and waved his hands.
"Today is Jiaojiao's birthday. You don't need to be reserved in front of me. Just treat it like a normal family dinner."
Everyone was sitting together, with smiles on their faces. It was really a rare good scene.
As Qiao Jiaojiao ate the delicious food in front of her, she felt her heart was filled to the brim, and she even felt like tears filled her eyes.
She is truly honored to be loved by everyone.
But what everyone was thinking was that it was great for Jiaojiao to appear in their lives.
----
Time passed smoothly amidst Jiaojiao's laughter and laughter, and soon it was mid-January of the next year. It was snowing heavily in the capital and Hanna Yaxian was about to give birth.
Mrs. Qiao and Qiao Jiaojiao have been watching Hanya Xian with their eyes wide open all day long, and even Qiao Tianjing has begun to lose consciousness.
Mrs. Qiao had long stopped letting Hanya Xian come and go to say hello. On the contrary, she and Qiao Jiaojiao went to Qingzhu Courtyard to sit with Hanya Xian and chat from time to time.
On January 17, the snow that had been falling for five consecutive days finally stopped. Mrs. Qiao took Han Yaxian for a walk in the yard, and said earnestly:
"Xian'er, you need to walk more. The more you walk, the better."
"This is your first child, so I'm afraid you'll have to endure a lot of hardships. Don't be afraid. Mom will always be with you."
Hanya Xian was actually still scared, but everyone was so kind to her. She couldn't bear to make her family worry, so she pretended to be relaxed and nodded.
"As long as my mother is here, Xian'er won't be afraid."
Mrs. Qiao patted Hanya Xian's hand distressedly, and after seeing that she had been gone for a while, she took Hanya Xian back to rest.
After taking a few steps, Hanya's expression suddenly changed, and she turned pale as she held her waist.
Mrs. Qiao was startled when she heard Hanya Xian's trembling voice say: "Mom, it's broken! It's broken!"
Mrs. Qiao looked down and saw that Hanyaxian's trouser legs were wet!
She quickly took a deep breath, without panicking, and shouted loudly: "Mother Liu! Xian'er is about to give birth, hurry! Get ready!"
Seeing Mrs. Qiao's calmness, Hanya Xian felt as if she had found her backbone, and she gradually gained confidence in her heart.
At this time, Qiao Zhongguo, Tian Jingdiyi and Jiaojiao were all discussing matters in the study.
Ever since Qiao Zhongguo wrote to Meng Guxue last year to ask about the soul-drawing Gu, the two parties had inexplicably developed some tacit understanding, and the correspondence has never stopped.
Relying on this, the Qiao family learned a lot about Shen Yuanbai's current situation from Meng Guxue.
The battle for the crown prince in Nanli Kingdom has also reached a stage of raging. With the help of Shen Yuanbai, the eldest prince has actually restored a lot of reputation during this period.
The second prince is now targeting the third prince more and more, and it is quite difficult for the third prince to fight against his two brothers.
Qiao Zhongguo was about to open today's letter when his servant suddenly came in a hurry to report:
"Master! Young Master! Miss! Young Madam... Young Madam is about to give birth!"
Wow--
Several people in the study stood up suddenly, and Qiao Tianjing ran out like a gust of wind.
Qiao Jiaojiao quickly grabbed Qiao Zhongguo and said quickly: "Dad! Let's go to Qingzhuyuan quickly!"
When we arrived at Qingzhuyuan, everything had been arranged in an orderly manner by Mrs. Qiao.
Po Wen had been staying at the house a few days ago, and now she had started cooking water, getting mats, and preparing coats.
Qiao Tianjing was standing in the courtyard, pacing back and forth nervously. Qiao Jiaojiao also clenched her palms and kept chanting "Amitabha, God bless you."
The pregnancy hurt Hanya for a long time, and it was not until late at night that a loud cry came from the house.
Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard the sound, and soon she saw Aunt Liu coming out to announce the good news in person.
"Congratulations, sir, congratulations to the eldest young master, the young lady, mother and son are safe!"
When Qiao Jiaojiao heard this, she burst into tears of joy.
God bless, everything goes well!
She has really become a little aunt!
At the end of Xu Shi on the 17th day of the first month of the first year of Ding'an, Qiao Tianjing was overjoyed to have Lin'er.
Naming the child caused a little "division" in the family.
Because Qiao Zhongguo named his child "Zi Qiang", the whole family thought it was...a bit rustic.
Qiao Zhongguo became sulky because of this, until Shen Yuanzhan heard the good news and named him Qiao Mingpei himself.
On the surface, Qiao Zhongguo happily thanked the Lord for his kindness, but he still couldn't help but murmur to his wife in bed at night:
"Madam, my husband feels that self-improvement is not as good as self-improvement!"
Mrs. Qiao: "..."
At the beginning, it was "just and right" and I never tried to defeat my husband. Thank God the Holy One took action.
Mingpei.
Well, she is very satisfied as a grandmother!
Chapter 363 Meng Guxue is in dire straits
The Qiao Mansion was busy and rejoicing for several days. Qiao Zhongguo's face was almost crooked with a smile. He went to court these days:
Colleague: "Good morning, Mr. Qiao!"
Qiao Zhongguo: "How did you know I had a big fat grandson?"
Everyone: "..."
Qiao Zhongguo had been fussing for several days. When he sat down in the study today, he remembered that he had forgotten to read Meng Guxue's letter!
He hurriedly stood up and took out the envelope from the wooden box and opened it. After reading it, his expression changed slightly.
Qiao Diyi came slowly with Qiao Jiaojiao in his arms, and was startled when he saw his father's expression was not good.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?"
Qiao Zhongguo raised his head when he heard the sound. Seeing Jiaojiao coming, he hurriedly hugged her over and said:
"Dad just read Miss Meng's letter. The situation in Nanli Country is not optimistic."
Qiao Jiaojiao's heart skipped a beat when she heard this, "Dad, what did Miss Meng say?"
Qiao Zhongguo looked worried, "The royal family of Nanli Kingdom was hunting, and the third prince was plotted against. A sharp arrow penetrated his arm, and he was seriously injured."
"The thief committed suicide on the spot by taking poison, and nothing was found."
Qiao Jiaojiao's expression changed drastically when she heard this, "A plot? There is definitely something fishy about this matter!"
Qiao Zhongguo nodded, "Miss Meng said in the letter that the arrow was actually aimed at her at that time. The third prince was not far away. When he realized something was wrong, he rode up on his horse and narrowly blocked it for her. "
"Look -"
Qiao Zhongguo waved the letter on the table. Qiao Jiaojiao took a closer look and found that the ink on the last few words of the letter was blurred and looked like it was soaked with tears.
"Miss Meng must have been frightened."
Qiao Diyi also saw it and couldn't help but said something worried.
Qiao Jiaojiao was worried about Meng Guxue.
[When we first got married, Meng Guxue confessed everything she knew to her father, which really helped our Qiao family a lot. 】
[Especially the matter of Huguo Temple. If she hadn't mentioned the Tzu Chi Bureau, I'm afraid this matter wouldn't have been unearthed so quickly. 】
[She came from time travel, so she definitely won't see any fighting or killing. The main reason is that she doesn't have a golden finger, so she'll have to live on tenterhooks every day...]
When Qiao Zhongguo heard this, there was a hint of deep thought on his face. After thinking about it, he wrote back a letter to Meng Guxue. There was a lot of comfort in his words.
The days soon came to March, and Shen Yuanzhan finally received an official letter from the leader of Nanli Kingdom.
The letter stated that he would celebrate his 55th birthday on September 23, and sincerely invited friends from all over the world to come and watch the ceremony and enjoy the occasion together.
Shen Yuanzhan immediately replied to the letter, saying that he would definitely send a delegation to congratulate him, and Xiao Hongda was the perfect candidate to lead the team.
Everything was being prepared intensively until June 16th, when the empress gave birth to the eldest son of the Yong Dynasty royal family. The emperor was delighted and the whole country celebrated.
On the day of Xisan, the eldest son, the emperor named him Shen Chengzhen and announced to the world that Shen Chengzhen was the crown prince.
Qiao Jiaojiao participated in the baptism ceremony, and looked at the little prince who was still sleeping soundly in the empress's arms, feeling filled with emotion in her heart.
The fate of all of them was finally completely changed, and the eldest grandson of the emperor who died young in the book was reincarnated again.
And this time, he is destined to be loved by thousands of people!
After the Qiao family returned home from attending the baptism ceremony, they received the second letter from Meng Guxue.
There was a gap of five months between this letter and the first one, which made Qiao Zhongguo a little scared.
During this period, he wrote to Meng Guxue twice, but Meng Guxue never replied.
If the spies had not come to report that nothing serious had happened to the royal family of Nanli Kingdom, Qiao Zhongguo would have even begun to worry about whether something unexpected had happened to Meng Guxue.
Qiao Jiaojiao sat in Qiao Zhongguo's arms. The father and daughter opened the letter. After reading it, their expressions changed drastically!
Meng Guxue said in the letter that she and Baili Chengyou were in a very difficult situation during this period.
Baili Chengyou's biological mother, the stepmother's wife, was slandered as having an affair with the second prince, and this incident caused a stir in Kyoto.
Unable to bear the humiliation and fearing that her son would be harmed, the wife of the emperor chose to die to prove her ambition. In the end, she was narrowly rescued, but she fell into a coma and has never woken up.
Baili Chengyou's mentality collapsed and he almost lost his mind. He impulsively contradicted the king in person and was banned for a month.
During these days, Meng Guxue had to take care of the wife of the Queen Mother, comfort Baili Chengyou, and be prepared for hidden arrows to kill her. She was exhausted both physically and mentally.
At the end of the letter, Meng Guxue mentioned the Christmas of the leader of Nanli Kingdom in September and asked carefully:
"Will Master Qiao come by then?"
Qiao Jiaojiao could see between the lines of Meng Guxue's words her trust and dependence on her father.
[Obviously, Meng Guxue really hopes that her father can go to Nanli Country, but she is worried that her father will be in danger, so she dare not say it openly. 】
[Baili Chengyou's biological mother was slandered for having an affair with the second prince. The biggest beneficiary of this incident was the eldest prince, so Shen Yuanbai's handiwork was definitely involved! 】
[Logically speaking, Baili Chengyou would not be so vulnerable, but it is obvious that Shen Yuanbai knows how to figure out people's weaknesses best. 】
[And the inside story must be more complicated than what Meng Guxue wrote, otherwise it would be impossible to force the noble lady of the country to die to prove it. 】
[Oh, I didn't expect Meng Guxue to have such a difficult life. I almost want to fly directly to Nanli Country to help her! 】
When Qiao Zhongguo heard Jiaojiao's words, the plan that had been lingering in his mind since January finally fell through.
He suddenly lowered his head and said warmly to Jiaojiao, "Jiaojiao, do you want to go to Nanli Country?"
When Qiao Jiaojiao heard this, her eyes widened slightly, "Dad, what do you mean-"
Qiao Zhongguo smiled and nodded, "When Miss Meng decided to help our Qiao family, she never hesitated or was stingy."
"Dad thought, now is when she needs help the most, and we can't just sit idly by."
"Moreover, the choice of the leader of Nanli Country is also crucial to the relationship between our two countries. We will help Baili Chengyou both emotionally and rationally!"
Hearing this, Qiao Jiaojiao immediately stretched out her hands and shouted: "Great! Jiaojiao is going! Jiaojiao can also try to save Baili Chengyou's mother!"
Qiao Zhongguo raised his hand and rubbed Qiao Jiaojiao's head, feeling soft in his heart.
"Daddy knows that Jiaojiao is the most kind-hearted and good child. Let daddy and the Holy One talk about this matter."
That afternoon, Qiao Zhongguo took Xiao Hongda to the palace to ask for an audience.
Shen Yuanzhan was startled when he heard that his two generals were coming at the same time. He quickly left his son and went to the Imperial Study Room to receive him.
After Qiao Zhongguo bowed respectfully, the first thing he said when he opened his mouth was: "Your Majesty, I would like to lead the delegation to Nanli Kingdom."
Shen Yuanzhan raised his eyebrows curiously when he heard this, "It's natural for Qiao Aiqing to go, but is there any special reason?"
Qiao Zhongguo nodded and handed over Meng Guxue's handwritten letter.
Chapter 364 Departure from Nanli Country
After Shen Yuanzhan read the letter, his expression changed slightly.
"He... still has good methods."
Who is this "him" in Shen Yuanzhan's mouth? Qiao Zhongguo and Xiao Hongda both know it.
"Qiao Aiqing, since Princess Nanning trusts you, you should go to Nanli Country this time."
"Speaking of which, I also owe Princess Nanning a favor."
It was Meng Guxue who predicted that his father would kill him with poisoned wine, which completely hardened his heart.
Moreover, if Qiao Aiqing's trip can help Baili Chengyou succeed to the throne, it will also be of great benefit to peace between the two countries.
"The father-in-law is more familiar with Nanli Country. Qiao Aiqing and the father-in-law exchange information a lot. We must return safely."
Qiao Zhongguo bowed in agreement, and before leaving the imperial study, he suddenly added: "Your Majesty, I should take Jiaojiao with me."
The Holy Emperor loved Jiaojiao very much and would bring her into the palace from time to time. Qiao Zhongguo thought about it for a long time and thought that whether he could take his daughter with him would require the Holy Emperor's consent.
"Jiaojiao is going too?"
Shen Yuanzhan was really surprised when he heard this, and immediately looked worried.
"Qiao Aiqing, Jiaojiao is young after all. I'm afraid she's not used to traveling long distances."
Qiao Zhongguo had already thought of his words in his mind and said with a "fearful" look on his face:
"Your Majesty, you also know that although Jiaojiao is small, she is really precocious and has big ideas."
"I just let something slip in front of her. She grabbed me by the leg of my trousers and cried and shouted to come with me. When I didn't agree, she rolled on the ground and refused to get up--"
Shen Yuanzhan: "..."
Are you sure Mr. Qiao has not substituted his own usual virtue?
"If Jiaojiao really wants to go, Aiqing must protect her. I will send more people during this trip. Aiqing must bring Jiaojiao back in full."
Qiao Zhongguo nodded repeatedly.
That's natural!
Jiaojiao is his baby bump, and he is afraid it will melt even if he holds it in his mouth!
After breathing peace with the emperor, Qiao Zhongguo went back and started preparations.
Of course, you still have to reply to Meng Guxue first.
After Mrs. Qiao learned about this, she was so uncomfortable that she couldn't sleep all night.
It will take at least two or three months to go to Nanli Country, and Jiaojiao has never been away from her side for such a long time.
But Mrs. Qiao is someone who understands the overall situation. She knows that they have big things to do when they go to Nanli Country this time, so she can only hug Jiaojiao again and again, secretly shedding tears a few times.
Soon, the Holy Spirit's decree came down.
Qiao Zhongguo led the delegation to Nanli State to celebrate his birthday, and Qiao Tianjing, the Minister of Household Affairs, accompanied him.
Qiao Diyi also wants to go.
But the martial arts examination will be held in August this year. He signed up early and must not miss it.
Moreover, Shen Yuanzhan was waiting for Qiao Diyi to take over the leadership position before entrusting him with important responsibilities.
Qiao Tianjing must go. He has a good brain. This time he will definitely face off against Shen Yuanbai. I'm afraid he will have to rely on Qiao Tianjing to decide the outcome in one fell swoop.
As for the plug-in Jiaojiao, just bring it with you!
On July 20th, the Yong Dynasty envoy set out from the South City Gate.
Xiao Si's face was crying and full of reluctance.
In fact, he had already made trouble twice. He wanted to go to Nanli Country with Jiaojiao, but Shen Yuanzhan rejected both times.
Now that Xiaosi is ten years old, Shen Yuanzhan will let him go, but it doesn't sound right for a seven-year-old prince to go to another country to celebrate his birthday.
Now he was held in Qiao Diyi's arms, holding Qiao Jiaojiao's hand and reluctant to let go.
Xiao Si: 。°(°¯᷄◠¯᷅°)°。
"Sister Qiao, it's a long way to go, so you must take care of yourself."
Qiao Diyi: ๐·°(৹˃̵﹏˂̵৹)°·๐
"Little sister, second brother can't bear to leave you!"
Qiao Zhongguo: "..."
"What do you two look like..."
With a smile on her face, Qiao Jiaojiao hugged her second brother and then her fourth brother.
"Second brother, Xiaosi, Jiaojiao will be back soon!"
The time to set off was approaching, and Qiao Zhongguo also looked serious.
"Second brother, you are the only grown man left in the family."
Qiao Tianjing also stepped forward and patted Qiao Diyi on the shoulder, feeling full of reluctance.
Seeing this, Qiao Diyi nodded solemnly, "Dad, brother, don't worry!"
Afterwards, Qiao Zhongguo carried Qiao Jiaojiao into the carriage. Aunt Liu accompanied Jiaojiao to take care of her along the way.
The group of people just carried the generous gifts and headed south to leave the country.
Qiao Jiaojiao leaned out of the car window and waved to Qiao Diyi and Xiao Si.
Qiao Jiaojiao: ( o̴̶̷᷄ ·̫ o̴̶̷̥᷅ )⑅୨
Qiao Diyi, Xiaosi: =͟͟͞͞(๑•̩̩̩̩_•̩̩̩̩ ノ)ノ
I burst into tears instantly.
----
South from the country.
After Meng Guxue received Qiao Zhongguo's reply, she almost jumped three feet high!
Xiao Tao knew that her young lady and General Qiao had been exchanging letters. Now that the young lady had cleared away the haze of these days, she couldn't help but ask with concern:
"Miss, do you have any good news?"
Meng Guxue quickly walked forward, hugged Xiao Tao, and shouted happily:
"Xiao Tao, Master Qiao is really coming!"
"Uuuuuuuuah, as soon as I heard that Master Qiao was coming, I immediately felt confident!"
Xiao Tao couldn't help but smile when she heard this. It was General Qiao who saved the young lady and her life!
"Miss, that's great! This way, you don't have to worry all day long!"
Meng Guxue couldn't help but blush when she thought about how difficult this period was. She turned her head and thought for a moment, then suddenly opened the door and walked out.
Seeing this, Xiao Tao hurriedly followed, "Miss, where are you going?"
Meng Guxue said without looking back: "Look for Baili Chengyou, I want to take someone to pick up Mr. Qiao!"
Shen Yuanbai is in the capital now, and he will definitely know the news that Master Qiao is coming to Nanli Kingdom soon.
With his methods, what if Master Qiao is ambushed halfway?
Mr. Qiao is here to support her, she can't hold him back!
----
The eldest prince's villa.
Yin Zhu walked quickly into the yard and knocked on the door.
"Enter."
A cold voice came from the house.
Yin Zhu opened the door and saw Shen Yuanbai standing at the wooden table in front of the window practicing calligraphy.
"Sir, there is important news!"
Shen Yuanbai never raised his head, but simply asked: "What's the message?"
Yinzhu took a deep breath and said quickly: "The envoy from the Yong Dynasty to celebrate his birthday has set off, and the leader is - Qiao Zhongguo!"
Shen Yuanbai shook his right hand, and half of the paper he had finally written was instantly useless.
As if he didn't realize it, he slowly raised his head and confirmed again:
"It's not Xiao Hongda, it's Qiao Zhongguo?"
Yin Zhu nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Qiao Tianjing is accompanying him, and this time Qiao Zhongguo even brought his little daughter with him!"
After hearing this, Shen Yuanbai slowly put down his pen, his breathing suddenly became rapid, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged faintly.
"very good--"
"Yinzhu, this time we have to fight to keep Qiao Zhongguo in Nanli forever."
When Yin Zhu heard this, his face was full of fighting spirit, and he nodded immediately.
"yes!"
Qiao Zhongguo's name will never be forgotten by Yinzhu.
But this time, Qiao Zhongguo actually threw himself into the trap and came to her territory!
"Let me think about it..."
Shen Yuanbai tapped the wooden table lightly with his fingertips, a look of deep thought flashed across his face.
The next moment, he suddenly raised his head and asked, "Yinzhu, have you picked out the things I asked you to prepare for the Third Princess?"
Upon hearing this, Yin Zhu immediately took out a small wooden box from his arms and handed it to Shen Yuanbai with both hands.
"Sir, this is it!"
Shen Yuanbai nodded when he heard this, and did not reach out to pick it up. He just said lightly:
"Look for an opportunity and be sure to plant it on her--"
Chapter 365 The Fourth Princess invites you
Baili Chengyou moved out of the palace after getting engaged to Meng Guxue, and now lives in the prince's mansion.
Meng Guxue searched around the house but couldn't find anyone, so she guessed that Baili Chengyou had entered the palace again.
She thought for a while, changed her clothes and hair bun, and led Xiao Tao into the palace.
During this time, she often went to the palace to look after the king's wife. The palace people had already recognized her, so she came to Qiushi Palace unimpeded.
"See the Third Princess."
The palace attendants of Qiushi Palace saluted Meng Guxue, with a vague look of sadness on their faces.
Meng Guxue sighed secretly when she saw this. She went directly into the main hall and saw Baili Chengyou beside the bed of the queen of the country.
Baili Chengyou has really become a lot more haggard these days, and he has taken off all the bells that he usually wears, and often stays in front of the bed for the whole night.
He always did what he said, so Dong Lu, the old eunuch beside him, did not dare to dissuade him and only stayed with him.
Seeing Meng Guxue coming in, Dong Lu's eyes lit up and he quickly bowed in a low voice, "See the Third Imperial Concubine."
Now that the king's wife is in a coma, looking at the whole palace, only the words of the third emperor's concubine still have some weight in front of His Highness.
Meng Guxue waved to Dong Lu, walked quietly behind Baili Chengyou, and patted him on the shoulder.
"Baili?"
When Baili Chengyou heard Meng Guxue calling him, he moved slightly, but did not turn his head.
Seeing him like this, Meng Guxue couldn't say anything for a while if she wanted to meet Qiao Zhongguo.
"Would you like to rest for a while? I'll stay with Madam."
"Don't worry too much. Didn't the palace doctors tell you that? Madam is out of danger. Maybe she hasn't recovered her strength yet. Just give her some more time."
Meng Guxue said in a warm voice, but in fact, there were only a few words that she repeated over and over again.
She guessed in her mind that the wife of the king might have become a vegetative state, but she did not dare to tell Baili Chengyou this.
She didn't know before that Baili Chengyou was so filial and had a deep mother-son relationship with the king's wife.
"Why do you think the queen mother refuses to wake up?"
Baili Chengyou finally spoke, his voice hoarse and full of tiredness.
"I must be a son who is not sincere enough, so the ancient god did not hear my prayer."
The ancient god is the god most believed in by the people of Nanli country, and is the patron saint who ward off disasters.
When Meng Guxue saw Baili Chengyou being so fragile, her heart felt as if she had been pricked by a needle. She was sore and swollen beyond words.
A few months ago, Baili Chengyou blocked an arrow for her, and she was extremely grateful.
At that time, he was so seriously injured, but he was still smiling and joking with her all day long. At that time, she felt very disgusted, but now she actually misses the "annoying" Baili Chengyou.
It's a pity that now the palace doctors and private doctors from Nanli Kingdom have been invited to see Madam, and everyone is helpless.
Alas, I don't know if Mr. Qiao has an accompanying imperial doctor...
Thinking of this, Meng Guxue suddenly felt a glimmer of hope in her heart. She leaned over slightly and said to Baili Chengyou in a warm voice:
"Baili, I received a reply from Mr. Qiao. This time he came here on behalf of the Yong Dynasty to congratulate the king on his birthday. I thought maybe he had an imperial physician from the Yong Dynasty with him?"
Baili Chengyou finally raised his head after hearing this.
Meng Guxue continued: "I know that you have good medicine in Nanli, but since there is no countermeasure in the country, why don't we go to Yong Dynasty to take a look?"
"Even if Mr. Qiao doesn't bring the imperial doctor, we can still ask him to write a letter to Emperor Yong Chao and send the best imperial doctor to see Madam."
Baili Chengyou doesn't want to miss out on any hope now.
He nodded, "Okay, you write and ask Qiao Zhongguo. No matter whether the imperial doctor of the Yong Dynasty can save his mother or not, I, Baili Chengyou, owe him a favor."
Meng Guxue hesitated after hearing this, and then said: "Baili, I want to go and meet Mr. Qiao personally."
Baili Chengyou frowned when he heard this, and suddenly looked deeply at Meng Guxue.
"Is this the real purpose of your visit to the palace today?"
Meng Guxue choked slightly and immediately explained: "Even if this matter hadn't happened, I would have gone to the palace to see Madam today."
She didn't know how to explain anything to Baili Chengyou before, but now she just thinks that he is too pitiful and wants to take care of him a little bit.
Meng Guxue thought so.
Baili Chengyou lowered his eyes and was silent for a while.
Seeing this, Meng Guxue pushed his shoulder lightly, "Why are you like this? Haven't I been with you these past few days?"
Baili Chengyou grabbed Meng Guxue's hand, and Meng Guxue pulled it back without pulling.
"What's wrong with you?" Meng Guxue asked uneasily.
Baili Chengyou raised his head and said calmly: "You go ahead, I'll ask A'le to accompany you and stay with you every step of the way."
"Remember to come back, otherwise -"
Meng Guxue: "..."
Is Baili Chengyou threatening her?
"Okay, let go, I'll be back."
Shen Yuanbai has not been eliminated yet, and leaving Baili Chengyou now is tantamount to seeking death, and she is not so stupid.
Baili Chengyou let go of his hand and never raised his head to look at Meng Guxue.
Meng Guxue looked at the king's wife on the couch, and secretly made up her mind to find a way to save people, and then she quietly left the palace.
On the way out of the palace, a palace maid stopped in front of Meng Guxue, seemingly waiting here on purpose.
"See the Third Imperial Concubine. Your servant is Caiyun beside the Fourth Princess. Your Highness the Princess would like to invite you, the Third Imperial Concubine, to visit the Pavilion in the Heart of the Lake."
"Fourth Princess?"
Meng Guxue frowned.
Now there is a princess waiting to be married in the palace, named Baili Miaoxue.
Yes, the fourth princess also has the word "snow" in her name.
Just because of the typo, when she first came here, the fourth princess gave her a shameless meal because of the king's favor.
Thinking of this, Meng Guxue's face darkened, "Go and tell the princess that I have something important to do. Let's talk about it next time."
"Third sister-in-law is so majestic. Can't I even invite you?"
A girl dressed luxuriously walked out from the side.
Meng Guxue: "..."
Isn't this person right next to you? She also deliberately asked the palace maid to stop her...
"Fourth sister, third sister-in-law is really in trouble."
Meng Guxue stepped up and left, but Baili Miaoxue stood in front of her very forcefully.
"Hey, what can't be delayed for a quarter of an hour? Third sister-in-law, fourth sister is here to apologize to you sincerely. If you don't give me face, you are causing trouble for third brother."
The fourth princess said with a smile on her face, but she had already taken Meng Guxue by the hand and took her to the pavilion aside without any refusal.
When walking through the water corridor, Caiyun deliberately blocked Xiao Tao from outside.
"The princess and the third princess have private matters to discuss, so we can just stay here."
Seeing this, Xiao Tao frowned and glanced at Meng Guxue with some concern. After hesitating for a moment, she found an excuse and turned around to find Baili Chengyou.
In this room, the fourth princess took Meng Guxue and sat down in the pavilion in the middle of the lake. She raised her hand and diligently handed Meng Guxue a piece of cake.
"Third sister-in-law, this is made after your Yong Dynasty pastry. Xueer put a lot of thought into it. Try it and see."
Bells and sachets are tied around the pavilion in the center of the lake. When the wind blows, the bells ring and the sachets also emit bursts of fragrance.
Meng Guxue felt her nose itchy and couldn't help sneezing.
Baili Miaoxue looked ashamed and continued to say sincerely:
"Actually, after feeling sorry for Third Sister-in-law last time, Xue'er felt very regretful. Third Brother also taught Xue'er a lesson for this, so Xue'er came here specifically to apologize to Third Sister-in-law today."
Meng Guxue looked at the cakes handed to her, feeling secretly wary.
Chapter 366 I want you to take this blessing
She reached out and took the cake, looked at it carefully, but didn't eat it, she just smiled and said:
"It's great that the fourth sister can reflect on herself. To be honest, the third sister-in-law was really shocked by the fourth sister last time. After all, it was the first time for the third sister-in-law to see such an uncultured princess."
Baili Miaoxue's expression twisted for a moment when she heard this, but she quickly calmed down again.
Meng Guxue raised her eyebrows slightly when she saw this.
Are you not angry?
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster, and there is definitely something wrong with this pastry!
She was about to put down the pastries when Baili Miaoxue suddenly pursed her lips and said:
"The third sister-in-law doesn't eat cakes, so she still refuses to forgive the fourth sister? I obviously put a lot of thought into apologizing to the third sister-in-law."
Baili Miaoxue seemed to be particularly insistent and wanted Meng Guxue to take a bite of the pastry.
Seeing this, Meng Guxue deliberately touched her belly.
"Fourth sister, third sister-in-law has really eaten a lot when she went out. How about I take it away and keep it for a while? This way it won't be considered as letting down fourth sister's feelings."
Upon hearing this, Baili Miaoxue stood up and said calmly:
"You are such a ignorant person! If the third brother hadn't taught me a lesson, do you think I would come here to warm up to your cold ass!"
"You have to push back and forth to eat a pastry, but you can't get on the table! Do you think I will harm you?"
Baili Miaoxue said as she snatched the pastry from Meng Guxue's hand, took a bite and swallowed it.
"Are you satisfied with this?"
Meng Guxue was slightly shocked when she saw this.
Could it be that she was too careful?
Baili Miaoxue puffed up her cheeks and said angrily: "I have already apologized to you. Whether you accept it or not is up to you, but you are not allowed to gossip in front of Third Brother!"
Meng Guxue also stood up after hearing this.
"Fourth sister, I never said anything in front of your third brother. I accept fourth sister's apology. The previous grudges have been wiped out. Third sister-in-law has something to do and leaves first."
Meng Guxue turned around and was about to leave, when Baili Miaoxue suddenly took out a painting from her arms, unfolded it and said:
"I heard that when the third brother proposed to marry the third sister-in-law, there was a prince in the Yong Dynasty who was also vying for the third sister-in-law, and that prince was born extremely well? Third sister-in-law, look at him, is he born like this?"
Meng Guxue turned her head and glanced when she heard this. At this time, Baili Miaoxue had fully unfolded the portrait, and it showed an extremely handsome face.
When Meng Guxue saw this face, her whole body became hairy.
The person in the portrait is none other than Shen Yuanbai!
"Where did you get this painting?" Meng Guxue asked, frowning.
Baili Miaoxue raised her lips nonchalantly, "This is the wanted order issued by your new emperor of the Yong Dynasty. I had someone copy it."
As she spoke, she looked Meng Guxue up and down and said lightly, "I really don't know where my third sister-in-law got her good fortune to win the favor of my third brother and such a man."
Meng Guxue trembled when she heard this, "I want you to take this blessing!"
She turned and walked away as if something dirty was chasing her behind her.
Seeing this, Baili Miaoxue slowly stood up and looked at Meng Guxue's back, her eyes darkening little by little.
She really wanted this blessing.
Because she not only saw the painting, but also met the person in the painting. It really makes people want to take it as their own!
However...he is actually interested in the third sister-in-law.
This idiot, I really don't know what's good about her. Does she think she can sit back and relax without eating or drinking?
Ah......
At this moment, Xiaotao hurried over with Baili Chengyou.
The moment Baili Miaoxue saw Baili Chengyou appear, the coldness between her brows instantly disappeared, and she tilted her head and smiled coquettishly.
"Third brother, I have apologized to third sister-in-law!"
Upon hearing this, Baili Chengyou looked Meng Guxue up and down, and Meng Guxue also smiled, "Fourth sister did apologize to me."
Baili Chengyou nodded, turned around and left.
Meng Guxue hurriedly followed her, and her expression darkened only after she was out of Baili Miaoxue's sight.
"Baili, your fourth sister has Shen Yuanbai's portrait in her hands! You'd better send someone to check. I suspect she has already seen Shen Yuanbai!"
"You know Shen Yuanbai's methods. Maybe your fourth sister is already working for him!"
"Did she just get Shen Yuanbai's order to harm me today? But I have been vigilant. I didn't touch the cakes or tea on the table."
"Now, take it to others for inspection."
Meng Guxue turned her wrist and was holding a piece of pastry in her hand.
This was when Baili Miaoxue took the portrait just now, she was careful and took the opportunity to steal it.
Baili Chengyou originally looked gloomy, but when he turned around and saw Meng Guxue taking precautions, his expression finally brightened.
He reached out and took the pastry, with a hint of coldness in his voice.
"In this palace, no one is simple. Don't trust others and protect yourself."
Meng Guxue nodded repeatedly. She was not very thoughtful to begin with, but she had worked hard to teach them to think twice before acting, and to learn from them to become smarter.
"If something happens to you, I will feel really useless."
After Baili Chengyou said something solemnly, he suddenly turned around and left quickly.
"I have already sent an order to Aja. He will protect you. Be careful along the way."
Meng Guxue stood there, staring blankly at Baili Chengyou's back.
Only then did Xiao Tao dare to step forward and said in a low voice:
"Miss, Prince Baili still cares about you very much. Just now Xiaotao went to report the news. Prince Baili seemed very nervous and hurriedly followed Xiaotao."
"Prince Baili seemed a little angry just now, but now he seems to be getting better again."
Xiaotao was also a little confused and muttered casually.
Meng Guxue's eyes were vaguely touched, and she stood there for a while before turning around and leaving the palace.
By the time she returned to the prince's mansion, Aja had already gathered the people.
Meng Guxue calculated her schedule. If she set off today, she should be able to meet Master Qiao before he enters the Nanli border without having to travel too fast.
That afternoon, Meng Guxue set off with two hundred horses.
----
As soon as Meng Guxue left, Yinzhu also found another courtyard.
"Young Master, the fourth princess just sent a letter, and she succeeded. She clearly stated in the letter that she wanted to see the Young Master."
Shen Yuanbai nodded indifferently, "See you, let's set a time."
Yin Zhu couldn't help but look worried after hearing this.
"Sir, the fourth princess seems...not so easy to control. She is quite favored by the king and has a domineering temper. She may be in danger of backlash."
Shen Yuanbai raised his head when he heard this. After the defeat of the Yong Dynasty, his temper seemed to have become colder, but there was also a madness that didn't care about anything.
"Yinzhu, how can a dignified princess of the same country be so simple?"
"Baili Chengyou is distracted now, so we can free up our hands to meet the second prince. Haven't you always said that this second prince is the least simple?"
"The reason why the chess piece is disobedient is because she is arrogant and thinks highly of herself. Perhaps, we may not get any unexpected gains from the fourth princess."
Chapter 367 Oh my god, it stinks!
Qiao Jiaojiao spent the second Mid-Autumn Festival in her life on the road.
The moon in the wilderness looked particularly big. Jiaojiao missed her mother so much that she couldn't help but drop a few golden peas when she was writing a letter home. She asked Qiao Tianjing to write ten "I miss her so much" before she stopped.
At dusk on August 20th, the Yong Dynasty birthday celebration team finally arrived at the junction of Papi Ridge and Nanli State.
Qiao Zhongguo ordered them to rest and set out again tomorrow.
Qiao Tianjing was walking around holding Qiao Jiaojiao to relieve his boredom, when suddenly the sound of rapid horse hooves was heard in the distance.
Qiao Tianjing was immediately alert, and Qiao Jiaojiao also craned her neck to look. The person who came back was Qiao Jiu, who was acting as a scout during this trip!
"Sir! Princess Nanning is here to welcome you. She will be here in about half a quarter of an hour!"
Qiao Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment, but when she realized that Princess Nanning was Meng Guxue, her eyes suddenly lit up.
Qiao Tianjing hurriedly turned around and sent a message to Qiao Zhongguo.
Half a quarter of an hour later, the uniform sound of horse hooves came as expected. Meng Guxue, who was riding in the front, had long hair flying and showed a heroic appearance!
She saw Qiao Zhongguo from a distance, raised her hands happily and shouted: "Master Qiao!"
Qiao Zhongguo's eyebrows relaxed. He didn't expect to see Meng Guxue again. She could already gallop like this.
As he took a step forward, Meng Guxue had already jumped off his horse and hurried forward to meet him.
"Miss Meng, long time no see!"
"Master Qiao, long time no see!"
At this moment, Meng Guxue's eyes were slightly sour, and she felt a sense of joy and relaxation at finally seeing her loved ones.
Aja followed and saluted Qiao Zhongguo.
Qiao Zhongguo immediately called for everyone to dismount and rest. They were just about to prepare dinner, so they decided to eat together.
Meng Guxue was a little tired from running all the way. She was not a fussy person, so she sat on the floor directly with Qiao Zhongguo.
Qiao Jiaojiao took out the thin pastries specially prepared for her by Qiao Zhongguo on the road.
"Sister Meng, do you want to eat?"
Meng Guxue didn't expect that Qiao Zhongguo would even bring Qiao Jiaojiao, and she couldn't hide her shock.
Qiao Jiaojiao sat down next to Meng Guxue and looked at her curiously.
Meng Guxue was really different from what she remembered!
"Thank you, Miss Qiao."
Meng Guxue was indeed a little hungry. She smiled and thanked her, and took the cake from Qiao Jiaojiao.
At this time, as Meng Guxue approached, Qiao Jiaojiao suddenly smelled a strange smell from her body.
[Hey, Meng Guxue seems to smell something? 】
Qiao Jiaojiao sniffed sharply and suddenly felt dizzy.
[Oh my god, it stinks! Could it be that Meng Guxue was poisoned? 】
When Qiao Zhongguo and Qiao Tianjing heard this, their expressions changed at the same time.
They knew that Jiaojiao could smell poison. At the Wanshou Palace banquet, Jiaojiao smelled the cold poison that was given to Yaxian!
Could it be that Meng Guxue was also poisoned?
Thank God, this time when I came to Nanli Country, the Holy Spirit was worried that Jiaojiao would not be able to adapt due to her young age, so he specially asked Zou Qi, who was the most skilled in medicine, to come with him.
It seems that we need to find a reason to let Zou Qi come and show Meng Guxue!
Qiao Tianjing was about to think of a suitable reason, when Meng Guxue asked herself:
"Master Qiao, do you have an imperial doctor accompanying you this time?"
"It's like this. The lady of the country is still unconscious, and Baili Chengyou is already very anxious. I thought that since the palace doctor from Nanli Kingdom can't see well, maybe we can try our Yong Dynasty's imperial doctor!"
Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes lit up when she heard this.
[Oh my god, this is really a pillow just for being sleepy. I was just thinking about how to ask Dr. Zou to give Meng Guxue a look without being too abrupt! 】
Thinking of this, Qiao Jiaojiao quickly gave Qiao Tianjing a wink.
Qiao Tian understood it carefully and stood up with Qiao Jiaojiao in his arms.
Qiao Jiaojiao took the opportunity and said: "Brother, I seem to smell something wrong on Meng Guxue. Please ask Dr. Zou to come over and take Meng Guxue's pulse!"
Qiao Tianjing pretended to be shocked when he heard this, and immediately nodded, "Okay, I will listen to you, little sister."
When Doctor Zou was found, there was still resentment on his face.
Dr. Zou: (* ̄m ̄)
He just opened his mouth, and before he could pick up the food he was stuttering, he was called over!
Isn't he destined to be a cow and horse for the Qiao family in this life?
When Qiao Zhongguo saw Imperial Physician Zou, he immediately stepped forward and put his arm around his shoulders affectionately, smiling and saying:
"Ms. Meng, what a coincidence, the most skilled physician in our Great Yong Dynasty is here!"
Qiao Zhongguo was a good flatterer and praised Dr. Zou's medical skills to the highest standards. Dr. Zou instantly felt relieved after hearing this.
Dr. Zou: (。・//ε//・。)
"Also...it's not as exaggerated as Mr. Qiao said~"
Meng Guxue's eyes lit up when she heard this, and then Qiao Tianjing took advantage of the situation and said:
"Mr. Zou, Miss Meng came here after a long journey. Please help her take a look first."
Meng Guxue looked confused, "Huh? I don't need it. I'm just a little tired. I'm fine."
"It's also good to have a safe pulse." Qiao Tianjing said with a smile.
Meng Guxue thought for a while, but did not refuse. She directly stretched out her hand to Dr. Zou, "That's fine!"
It's time for regular physical examinations!
Doctor Zou was a good person, and he immediately sensed that there was probably something fishy about Meng Guxue, so he looked a little more serious and put his hand on Meng Guxue's wrist.
Meng Guxue was originally very relaxed, but when she saw the increasingly serious look on Doctor Zou's face, her heart skipped a beat and she was a little frightened.
"Zou... Doctor Zou, what's wrong? Am I going to die soon?"
When Imperial Doctor Zou retracted his hand, he frowned and smoothed his beard.
"Ms. Meng's pulse is a little strange. Have you taken any medicine to boost your spirits recently?"
"Huh? Is there really a problem?"
Meng Guxue was frightened to death. She touched her whole body, but found nothing strange.
"Never, I never take medicine for no reason!"
Upon hearing this, Qiao Tianjing guessed that Meng Guxue might have been tricked unconsciously.
"Ms. Meng, Dr. Zou's medical skills are unmistakable. Think about it, is there anything strange around you recently?"
When Qiao Tianjing said this, Meng Guxue instantly remembered the meeting with the fourth princess before setting off.
If there was a possibility of being tricked recently, it would be that day!
But she was obviously very careful--
Meng Guxue calmly told what happened that day in detail.
Qiao Tianjing and Qiao Jiaojiao listened thoughtfully. The brother and sister looked at each other, and Qiao Tianjing nodded slowly.
He said: "Miss Meng, is there a possibility that the fourth princess has already guessed that you are wary, so she did the opposite?"
Meng Guxue opened her mouth slightly, and Qiao Tianjing said meaningfully:
"The two of you were in the pavilion that day. The only difference was that she took a bite of the pastry."
"I would venture to guess that maybe the antidote is in that pastry. You were wary and refused to eat it, but you fell into the trap."
When Meng Guxue heard this, her heart suddenly went cold!
"It's over, am I going to die?"
Doctor Zou immediately shook his head, "Judging from the pulse, it doesn't look like a poison that harms the body. It should have other uses."
Meng Guxue was immediately excited when she heard this.
"In Nanli Country, it's either medicine or poison! Have I been poisoned? It's over! Am I going to become a puppet too!"
"Aja! Aja! I remember you know how to pull out poison? Come here and help!"
"That Baili Miaoxue who suffered a thousand cuts!!!"
Chapter 368 These people are so tough
Hearing Meng Guxue's cry, Aja felt nervous. He immediately put the bowl in his hand on the ground and walked over quickly.
"Princess, my subordinates are here, what's wrong with you?"
Meng Guxue immediately grabbed A'le's sleeve and said sharply: "A'le, I... I may have been poisoned. Get that thing and let me smell it!"
"Bewitched?"
A'le's expression changed with shock when he heard this, and he hurriedly took out a small cylinder from his arms.
Qiao Jiaojiao looked over with curiosity. The Merit Mall was floating beside her, ready to remove the poison from Meng Guxue at any time.
Aja frowned and opened the small lid on the cylinder, and said solemnly:
"Princess, this... smells bad. Please bear with it. As long as the poison lasts for a long time, it can usually be forced out."
Naturally, Meng Guxue cherished her life even more, and immediately nodded without hesitation, "Come on! I can bear it!"
Aja walked up, looked around, and finally said to Qiao Zhongguo:
"Master Qiao, please... hold the imperial concubine down."
Meng Guxue: (゚∀゚;)
Why do I suddenly feel a little scared...
Qiao Zhongguo was straightforward. He stepped forward and said, "Miss Meng, I'm offended." He raised his hand and fixed Meng Guxue's head.
With quick eyes and quick hands, A'jia immediately handed the small cylinder to Meng Guxue's nose and shouted in a low voice:
"Princess, take a deep breath!"
Meng Guxue's eyes widened slightly when she heard this, and then she took a deep breath as if she was risking her life!
The next moment, her expression became extremely strange, and then:
('ཀ' ∠)
Vomit-vomit-vomit-
Meng Guxue's face was pale and she was retching repeatedly, looking extremely painful.
Aja hurriedly took out the handkerchief from his arms and put it on his palm, then covered Meng Guxue's mouth and nose. When he took it away again, there was actually a half-nail-sized fingernail curled up on the snow-white handkerchief. of bugs!
When Meng Guxue saw this scene, her eyes almost bulged out, and she looked at A'le in disbelief.
Don't tell her that she spit out the bug...
Aja didn't have such delicate thoughts and nodded straightforwardly.
Meng Guxue: Ugh--
This time I was really nauseous and vomited.
Qiao Jiaojiao's face was full of amazement, and she couldn't help but be very interested in the cylinder in Aja's hand.
Seeing Ajia's hand hanging by her side, Jiaojiao was filled with curiosity, so she stepped forward and sniffed it gently.
The next moment, she felt an extremely pungent smell rushing straight into Tianling Gai, like a punch in her face, causing her cerebellum to instantly ○→O→0→o→·→
vomit--
Qiao Tianjing frowned slightly when he saw this. How disgusting could this smell be? He didn't believe it.
So he got closer and took a whiff. The next moment, he vomited--
Qiao Zhongguo: "....."
The boss is still a bit too young after all. Thinking about the time when we were marching and fighting, he didn't smell anything--
vomit--
Doctor Zou: Is there such a magical thing in the world that can restrain Gu insects? I want to smell it too!
vomit--
The next moment, the sounds of vomiting came one after another...
Aja: "..."
Are these people so tough?
After a while, several people sat together with their eyes red from vomiting, and they all looked at the stiff Gu worm on the veil.
"What the hell - what the hell!"
Meng Guxue sniffed and asked fiercely.
Aja stretched out his hand and pulled the Gu worm, and said with some uncertainty:
"It looks like...it's the overlapping language Gu."
"Double Language Gu?" Meng Guxue looked confused.
Aja nodded, "This stack of language poison has been in the body for a long time. Once it grows up, it will explode when it is strongly stimulated."
"The juice in its body has a hallucinogenic effect and often makes people repeat the words of others unconsciously, hence the name."
Exploding inside the body...
Meng Guxue's face turned pale and she vomited again.
Qiao Jiaojiao frowned when she heard this.
[From what Meng Guxue said, this Gu should be the work of Shen Yuanbai and the fourth princess. 】
[He is a foreigner, how can he play so well with Nanli Kingdom's Gu? 】
Qiao Tianjing also felt frightened. He looked at Aja and asked curiously:
"If the Gu in your Nanli Kingdom can be tricked without anyone noticing, and are so mysterious, wouldn't it be a mess?"
Aja shook his head, "Although we in Nanli have a great reputation for healing voodoo, there are still very few people who practice voodoo."
"After all, it is extremely difficult to cultivate Gu insects, and the price is extremely expensive, and generally Gu insects have their enemies."
Aja said and shook the cylinder in his arms again.
"Besides, since we know there is such a thing as poison, we will naturally take precautions. For example, Your Highness, Your Highness has been exposed to medicinal poisons since he was a child. Nowadays, ordinary poisons are out of reach."
"The Imperial Concubine... The Imperial Concubine's subordinates were negligent."
Aja lowered his head in shame as he spoke.
His Highness is now in a state of confusion because of the affairs of the princess, so he should shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting the princess.
"When the envoys arrive in Kyoto, I will also send you insect repellent sachets. Please don't worry."
Meng Guxue was still frightened after hearing this.
"You said this Gu is rare, why do I think Shen Yuanbai uses it in endless ways!"
Aja thought for a moment and couldn't help but sigh.
"His Highness is very curious, and has gathered many capable people around him, including many cunning and weird Gu doctors. Shen Yuanbai should have obtained these things from His Highness."
When Qiao Jiaojiao heard this, she immediately raised her eyebrows and thought to herself:
[A good snare to attract talented people and strangers? Then isn't there a lot of talented people around him? Wait... It seems that the eldest prince may not be a fuel-efficient lamp! 】
[I heard before that he was addicted to beauty. I thought he was completely manipulated by Yin Zhu! 】
[Now let's talk about conspiracy theories. Isn't he also a man who pretends to be a pig and eats the tiger? Why do I feel that the situation in Nanli Country is more complicated than I imagined...]
[Speaking of which, Baili Chengyou successfully became the leader of Nanli Kingdom in the end. Now that he has had another dream, it stands to reason that he should be more comfortable fighting. 】
[No... He is so decadent now because he has a plan, right? 】
Thinking of this, Qiao Jiaojiao's scalp felt numb.
This Nanli country... must be a wolf's den!
Meng Guxue, the little sheep, was shivering in her nest, and the letters she sent were extremely distressing. She and her father were worried about Meng Guxue, so they came here all the time.
Looking back now, is it possible that she was the only one in dire straits, not Baili Chengyou?
Qiao Zhongguo heard his daughter's voice: "..."
Qiao Tianjing thought that since he had come here, he had to make some achievements, so he looked at Aja and said warmly:
"Aja, if this poison only has the effect of repeating words, does Shen Yuanbai want Miss Meng to say certain words on a certain occasion?"
A'le was slightly startled when he heard this, and then his expression changed drastically.
"His Royal Highness is very happy with the imperial concubine. In the eyes of others, the imperial concubine's words naturally represent His Highness's thoughts to a certain extent."
"If on September 23rd, the imperial concubine talks nonsense or even says something treasonous at the King's birthday banquet, I'm afraid that in full view of the public, His Highness will be unable to absolve himself of the blame and will be speechless!"
When Meng Guxue heard this, she stood up suddenly!
Chapter 369 Entering the palace to save people
Regardless of what happened to Baili Chengyou, she had to be pulled out and chopped on the spot just for talking nonsense at the king's birthday banquet, right?
Thinking of this, Meng Guxue's expression changed several times, and finally she clenched her hands tightly, feeling shocked and angry!
Okay, okay, you are treating her like a soft persimmon, right?
Just because she is short-sighted, she doesn't deserve to die! Isn't her life her life?
Meng Guxue was angry and wanted to cry. She had been very cautious, but she was still tricked.
If she hadn't come to pick up Mr. Qiao this time and let Dr. Zou take a pulse on a whim, wouldn't she have been waiting to die?
Qiao Jiaojiao's mind was sharp and she immediately noticed that something was wrong with Meng Guxue's mood.
She herself also traveled through time, but she had her father and brother to rely on, as well as the Golden Finger of Merit Mall, but Meng Guxue had nothing.
At this time, Meng Guxue can only continue to force herself to grow up and become her own confidence. This is the most invincible way to survive in this world with 800 people per capita!
"Sister Meng, Chongchong has flown away, don't be afraid!"
Qiao Jiaojiao raised her hand and tugged on Meng Guxue's skirt. When she raised her face, her face was full of innocence.
Meng Guxue lowered her head and saw Qiao Jiaojiao, who was wearing pink makeup and beautiful clothes, smiling at her. She was suddenly comforted by a child when she was feeling down and frightened. Her heart softened and her eyes were sore.
When Qiao Jiaojiao saw this, her cheeks puffed up, as if she was speaking angrily, she stared and said:
"Drive Chong Chong onto the bad guys and bite them in the butt!"
When Meng Guxue heard this, the image of Shen Yuanbai and the fourth princess being bitten by a bug on their butts flashed through her mind, and she couldn't help but smile.
She felt a little better, and after thinking about it, she sat back down, but as soon as her butt hit the ground, she was slightly startled.
"yes......"
Meng Guxue murmured as if inspired.
Shen Yuanbai and Baili Miaoxue wanted to harm her, so why couldn't she treat them in their own way?
They all thought she was stupid, but then they thought about it, wasn't "stupid" her best protective color?
Why couldn't she stand up and bite them too!
She can't always count on Mr. Qiao and Baili Chengyou to protect her. Only she can best protect herself!
With this thought, Meng Guxue's eyes became brighter and brighter!
Fight back! She wants to fight back! Let's start with Baili Miaoxue!
"Ah, Miss Qiao, let me call you Jiaojiao. You are such a smart and good child!"
Meng Guxue suddenly turned around and hugged Qiao Jiaojiao tightly.
Qiao Jiaojiao grinned, she is so enlightened!
Meng Guxue pointed to the Duiyu Gu on the ground and raised her head to ask Ajie.
"Aja, does Baili Chengyou have this Gu on hand? It doesn't matter if he doesn't, let him buy it!"
"I'm so angry that I'm going to plant this poison on Baili Miaoxue!"
"When the time comes, let them shoot themselves in the foot and let Baili Miaoxue make a fool of herself at the birthday banquet!"
"If you make me angry, I will go crazy and say all the dirty words to her!"
Meng Guxue became more and more enthusiastic as she talked. She had her hands on her chest and was bulging with anger.
Aja: "..."
Wait, is this what the Third Princess originally looked like...
Seeing this, Qiao Tianjing's eyebrows slightly curved, and he secretly felt that Meng Guxue was doing so well now.
Baili Chengyou is obviously not simple at all. If Meng Guxue is destined to become the wife of Nanli Kingdom in the future, Qiao Tianjing hopes that the two of them will be equally matched and that Meng Guxue will be confident.
This is his blessing to Meng Guxue, because both father and little sister obviously like her very much...
That night, Meng Guxue chatted with Qiao Zhongguo and Qiao Tianjing for a long time and asked many questions.
Early on the next morning, He Shou and his party officially crossed the border of Nanli Country and headed towards the capital.
Seven days later, the Yong Dynasty team finally arrived outside the capital of Nanli Kingdom, and the person who came to greet them was Baili Chengzhi, the second prince of Nanli Kingdom.
Qiao Zhongguo and Qiao Tianjing came forward to chat with Baili Chengzhi, while Qiao Jiaojiao opened the curtain and took a closer look at the second prince, who was listed as the number one threat by Xiao Hongda.
The second prince was about the same age as Qiao Zhongguo. He was tall and tall, with sharp features and nobility. He was the same as Emperor Yong.
Qiao Jiaojiao had not forgotten that the reason why the wife of the stepmother was unconscious was because of rumors that she had an affair with the second prince.
But when she looked carefully now, she didn't see any sign of the second prince being shocked.
She frowned slightly, always feeling this was strange.
Soon, the motorcade headed towards the city under the leadership of Baili Chengzhi. Both sides of the road were lined with Nanli people watching the excitement.
As soon as everyone arrived at the other hospital where they were staying, Meng Guxue quickly pulled Dr. Zou into the palace.
"Mr. Zou, it's extremely urgent!"
Doctor Zou: "..."
Okay, okay, it's just his hard work, right? Let him drink some water first!
Qiao Zhongguo and Qiao Tianjing were still talking to the second prince in the front. Qiao Jiaojiao was a little worried after hearing this, and immediately suggested:
"Sister Meng, do you need to ask your king for advice on this matter first? After all, Doctor Zou is a foreigner."
After getting along with each other for the past few days, Jiaojiao and Meng Guxue have become completely familiar with each other. Perhaps Jiaojiao's words that night woke up the person in her dream, so Meng Guxue was particularly close to her.
Through this contact, Meng Guxue had already known that Jiaojiao was precocious, but now he was surprised to hear that she could say such words at the age of three.
Children in ancient times really became spirits! Even more considerate than her!
"Jiaojiao is right, I still--"
At this time, there was a knock on the door, but it was Qiao Bo who came looking for him with Aja.
Aja left before entering the capital. Coming here at this time must have been ordered by Baili Chengyou.
Sure enough, when Aja saw Meng Guxue, the first thing he said was: "Princess, Your Highness, please ask Dr. Zou to enter the palace immediately."
Seeing that Baili Chengyou had spoken, Qiao Jiaojiao thought that she had already made arrangements. If it was to save people, in case Dr. Zou was helpless, she would also go.
"Sister Meng, can you take Jiaojiao with you? Jiaojiao promises to be good, okay?"
Meng Guxue was fine, after all, Master Qiao and the others would definitely be entering the palace to meet the king soon, and they happened to meet up in the palace.
So she smiled and nodded, "Okay, sister, take Jiaojiao!"
Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes lit up when she heard this. With Qiao Bo, who was highly skilled in martial arts, she felt very safe!
So Meng Guxue and Jiaojiao left a message, and the four of them followed Aja to the palace.
When they arrived at the palace gate, Baili Chengyou came to pick him up in person.
Qiao Jiaojiao saw Baili Chengyou striding up to Meng Guxue, his face a little anxious, and he looked her up and down.
"There are anthelmintic herbs in the cakes. Aja told me. How do you feel?"
Meng Guxue was startled for a moment, then shook her head, "I'm fine. Then did Aja tell you that I also want that Gu? I'll be of great use!"
Baili Chengyou breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, nodded and said: "If you want it, I will buy you as much as you want."
When Qiao Jiaojiao heard this, her eyes instantly turned into stars!
[What happened when you suddenly bumped into someone? Did their relationship develop so quickly? I feel like I missed 100 million! 】
At this time, Meng Guxue pulled Baili Chengyou to Dr. Zou and said hopefully:
"Look! I have brought you the most skilled doctor in the Yong Dynasty. Let Dr. Zou show it to Madam!"
Baili Chengyou had already heard about the existence of Imperial Physician Zou from Ajia, and at this time he actually gave a junior salute to Imperial Physician Zou on the spot.
"Mr. Zou, as long as you can revive my mother, you can make whatever conditions you want!"
Dr. Zou felt a little frightened when he heard this, and waved his hands repeatedly, "Don't dare, Your Highness, Third Highness, Sir Qiao has already told me to do my best."
Chapter 370 There's something fishy!
With Baili Chengyou personally leading the way, everyone arrived outside Qiushi Palace without any hindrance.
At this time, Qiao Jiaojiao noticed that there were several people kneeling outside the palace, and they looked like they were dressed as doctors.
Meng Guxue didn't understand and asked: "Baili, who are these people?"
Baili Chengyou's face darkened slightly, "I'm just an irrelevant person. Doctor Zou, please wait a moment."
Baili Chengyou walked towards the palace, probably taking measures to avoid suspicion first.
Meng Guxue waited for the opportunity and quickly waved to Dong Lu who was standing aside, "Eunuch Dong, what's going on with these doctors?"
Dong Lu carefully looked inside the palace, then lowered his voice and replied:
"I dare not hide it from the imperial concubine. These doctors were found by His Highness the Second Highness. They said they are private experts who have spent all their efforts to find them, but... His Highness was so angry that he did not let these doctors in at all."
"It just so happens that these doctors have received an order from His Highness the Second Highness. They say they will kneel outside and are not allowed to leave unless they see the wife of the king."
"I just came here this morning. Well, we're still at a stalemate."
Eunuch Dong said he really had a headache.
Meng Guxue's eyes widened slightly when she heard this.
This second prince really doesn't shy away from suspicion at all, and now he dares to blatantly send the doctor to him!
Qiao Jiaojiao looked thoughtful after hearing this, and at this moment Baili Chengyou walked out of the hall.
Eunuch Dong quickly shut up when he saw this, and Meng Guxue also pretended to be relaxed. It was obvious that the two of them did this kind of thing secretly on a daily basis...
"Mr. Zou, please."
Doctor Zou hurriedly followed in with the medicine box on his back. Qiao Bo stopped outside, while Qiao Jiaojiao was held in Meng Guxue's arms.
Entering the hall, you can vaguely smell a faint fragrance. An old nanny is guarding the bedside. The bed curtain has been lowered, and a bright wrist is protruding from the couch.
Qiao Jiaojiao had learned in advance that the wife of the country's leader was only thirty-four or five years old, and she was said to be born in a beautiful country.
The second prince is of the same age as the step-king's wife. Once such a bitch like the step-son and the beautiful stepmother is polished by someone, it is very easy for unscrupulous rumors to arise...
Imperial Physician Zou stepped forward lightly, bowed respectfully, then said sorry, and then walked to the bed to take a pulse.
Seeing this, Qiao Jiaojiao felt a little excited. It would be great if Dr. Zou's medical skills could revive the king's wife.
Meng Guxue also became nervous, while Baili Chengyou sat beside the couch, his eyebrows darkened, full of exhaustion and worry.
Everyone focused on Doctor Zou's face, and saw that his brows were furrowed and he was particularly cautious.
After a while, Doctor Zou stopped his hand. Meng Guxue hurriedly carried Qiao Jiaojiao to the bedside and asked quickly: "Mr. Zou, how are you?"
Doctor Zou was extremely cautious, and after much hesitation he said: "Your Majesty, the Madam of the State, although her qi and blood are intact, her pulse is stagnant. I...may need an acupuncture to check."
Dr. Zou was already taking a huge risk if he was willing to give it a try.
The old lady on the side immediately looked at Baili Chengyou with hope after hearing this.
The palace doctors and doctors who came before were helpless. This imperial doctor at least had something to do. She didn't care about anything to avoid suspicion. She just hoped that Madam would get better!
Baili Chengyou didn't hesitate and nodded immediately, "Okay, Imperial Physician Zou will only administer acupuncture, this palace will decide everything!"
Dr. Zou got the correct answer, immediately opened the medicine box, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, please help Madam sit up, and I will inject acupuncture on Madam's head and neck."
After hearing this, Meng Guxue put down Qiao Jiaojiao, told her not to move, and then stepped forward to help.
When the bed curtain was lifted, Qiao Jiaojiao finally saw the face of the king's wife.
She lay there quietly as if she was asleep, looking at the beautiful face on her temples, her fair face was indeed extremely beautiful.
Dr. Zou's eyes were calm and he never looked at the face of the princess.
Everything was ready, and everyone in the palace held their breath. Just when Doctor Zou was about to administer the needle, a summons suddenly came from outside the palace.
"Your Highness, the Lord of the Kingdom has summoned you and ordered you to go to the Imperial Study Room immediately."
Upon hearing this, Imperial Physician Zou paused in his movements and raised his head to look at Baili Chengyou.
Baili Chengyou held his wife's shoulders with both hands. Hearing this, the veins on his forehead twitched slightly. Then he looked at Dr. Zou and said in a deep voice:
"Mr. Zou, just give me the acupuncture."
Doctor Zou took a deep breath and nodded.
Unexpectedly, at this time, there was a commotion outside the door.
"Third brother, come out!"
Meng Guxue frowned when she heard this, and glanced at Baili Chengyou with some concern, "Why is eldest brother here too?"
Qiao Jiaojiao knew clearly that the person coming was the eldest prince Baili Chengye.
Why does she feel that the palace in Nanli Kingdom is a bit noisy...
Doctor Zou looked attentive. Since he had Baili Chengyou in charge, and with the benevolence of a doctor, he put in the needle without hesitation!
The first needle landed on the head of the wife of the king, followed closely by the Sishencong, temples...
Seeing no one in the room responded, the sound outside the door immediately became louder.
"Third brother, eldest brother knows that you are feeling uncomfortable, but now that the gossip in Beijing is booming, you rashly brought your foreigner in. Isn't this just a smear in Madam's face?"
"My father knew this news and was furious. It was my eldest brother who persuaded my father to come down and came here specifically to look for you."
"Bring this foreigner out now and go with your eldest brother to see your father!"
Baili Chengyou's eyebrows were gloomy, pretending not to hear.
At this time, there were faint beads of sweat on Imperial Physician Zou's forehead, and it was quite difficult for him to perform acupuncture.
The eldest prince's voice continued to sound outside the door.
"And these doctors, they are so outrageous! My second brother is so ignorant, he doesn't know how to avoid suspicion, and he dares to invite the doctor here!"
"Both of you can't make my father feel at ease, and you have to have your eldest brother behind you!"
"Third brother, did you hear what eldest brother said!"
Qiao Jiaojiao listened carefully to what the eldest prince shouted, thinking about every word of Baili Chengyou, but when she thought about it carefully, there were needles between the lines!
Meng Guxue was a little worried, and the hand holding the wife's head moved slightly.
When Baili Chengyou saw this, he said in a deep voice: "Don't move, just think of the dogs barking outside the door."
"They don't want the queen to wake up, these people..."
Baili Chengyou gritted his teeth and finally stopped talking.
Qiao Jiaojiao's big eyes narrowed slightly when she heard this. There really was something inside of this...
Doctor Zou placed the last needle on the Baihui point, and then slowly withdrew his hand.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling unsure.
Qiao Jiao glanced at Imperial Doctor Zou's expression, quietly approached the bed, and her eyes fell on the hand of the lady of the country hanging on the edge of the bed.
[It seems that Dr. Zou has tried his best. Let me confirm Dr. Zou's reputation as a "miracle doctor"! 】
[They don't want the king's wife to wake up, but I want to see what's fishy in it! 】
While everyone was looking at the face of the Madam of the Kingdom with concern, Qiao Jiaojiao's palm calmly placed on the back of the Madam of the Kingdom's hand, and said to herself:
