Mrs. Zhao came here today to give Meng Shu a thank you gift.
She also brought her daughter Shen Caiwei.
The old lady asked Meng Wan to take Shen Caiwei around the house before, but she has not returned yet.
"The day before yesterday, that girl Caiwei was so frightened that she lay on the couch unable to get up after she returned. Her whole body was so hot at night that she couldn't even speak. Today, she has calmed down. She was clamoring to come. I would like to express my gratitude to your Shu'er. If Shu'er hadn't saved her righteously, I would have lost Caiwei forever..." Mrs. Zhao looked at Mrs. Lu and Meng Shu, and became more and more excited as she spoke, and her eyes could not help but turn red.
Although two days have passed since this incident, Mrs. Zhao feels terrified every time she thinks about it.
Her precious daughter just went out to watch the excitement that day, but she almost lost her life.
The Xiqiang princess lived in the Zhou Dynasty, but she was very reckless. One moment she wanted to kill her family Caiwei, and the other moment she wanted to kill Meng Shu. She was so lawless that she did not take them seriously in the Zhou Dynasty.
"Because of this matter, my husband has submitted papers for two consecutive days, asking the Queen Mother and the Emperor to make the decision, but nothing has been done. It shows how biased the Queen Mother is towards the Xiqiang princess. Although I can't swallow this breath, I can't do anything about it."
After Zhao finished speaking, she looked at Meng Shu: "Shu'er, I heard that the Queen Mother wants to marry the Xiqiang princess to King Wei as a concubine. You have to be careful when you meet her in the future. After all..."
Zhao lowered her voice and said: "The Queen Mother is very protective of her shortcomings. Princess Xiqiang has become King Wei's concubine. Even if she is the Queen Mother's daughter-in-law, the Queen Mother will definitely protect her. Don't suffer a loss because of this."
When she came here today, in addition to letting her daughter personally thank Meng Shu for saving her life, she also reminded Meng Shu.
This news was told to her by her husband, so it couldn't be wrong.
"Thank you madam for reminding me!" Meng Shu said quickly.
She knew that Zhao had good intentions, but Meng Shu was not worried.
No matter who the Princess of Xiqiang wants to marry, it will have nothing to do with her.
After all, she was about to return to Yuncheng.
When she returned home, she had already discussed with her mother that in five days it would be an auspicious day for travel, and she and her mother would set off on that day.
When they get to Guiyun City, that is the territory of the Meng family. The sea is wide enough for fish to leap and the sky is high enough for birds to fly. She, Meng Shu, is going to show off her losses.
Just thinking about it makes me feel happy!
Meng Shu doesn't care about anything else now.
A moment later, Meng Wan came in with Shen Caiwei.
"Thank you Sister Meng for saving me. My sister's kindness and kindness will be unforgettable to Caiwei. If my sister can be of any use to Caiwei in the future, just ask, Caiwei will never refuse." Shen Caiwei said while blessing herself. said.
"Sister Caiwei, you're welcome." Meng Shu quickly reached out and helped her up.
After everyone exchanged a few words, the old lady stayed with them to have dinner together.
It was almost dark, so of course there was no reason to let the guests leave without a meal.
Meng Shu and the others naturally wanted to accompany them.
After the banquet was over, Meng Shu sent Zhao and Shen Caiwei away before returning to her yard.
After a long day, Meng Shu was very tired. After bathing and changing clothes, she fell asleep soon.
At this moment, some people were tossing and turning.
"Your Majesty, would you like a cup of soothing soup?" Wang Fusheng counted it. This was the sixteenth time the emperor turned over after lying down. He remembered it clearly.
In the past, this was absolutely impossible.
As an emperor, the emperor received the most orthodox and strict education since he was a child.
There are rules for sitting, lying, walking, etc. In the past, when he was on night watch, the emperor almost fell asleep soon after lying down. Even though he was tortured by poison and his body felt uncomfortable, he would only turn over occasionally.
The emperor's perseverance is amazing, and he can always endure and survive.
What happened today?
"No need!" The emperor's voice came from the bright yellow curtain: "Wang Fusheng, what time is it?"
"Your Majesty, it's almost midnight. There will be no court meeting tomorrow. Your Majesty, you can rest assured." Wang Fu said respectfully.
"I'm not sleepy at all. You can help me get up while I go to the study to sit for a while." After the emperor finished speaking, he sat up.
There was only one relatively dim lamp in the room. Wang Fusheng listened to the emperor's instructions and quickly lit a few lamps. He also took the emperor's coat and helped him put it on.
The emperor went to the small study next door and wrote for a while before his heart slowly calmed down.
Ever since he learned about his life experience, the emperor began to make plans. In the past two years, his spies have spread all over the capital, and almost all the important ministers have people he has placed in his palace.
Maybe it's an inconspicuous maid, or a boy walking in the outer courtyard, a coachman, etc.
It is almost impossible to place people around those courtiers.
But an insignificant position is still okay. The emperor's requirements are not high, as long as he can get some information. Even if it is not useful information, he can at least grasp some trends.
Besides, if an emperor really places people around his courtiers, it means that he does not trust them. Once the matter is exposed, it means that the emperor and his ministers are alienated.
He understands that some things end at the last minute.
After the emperor asked Meng Shu to detoxify him, he became very concerned about the news in the British government.
The British government palace was heavily guarded. Of course, the emperor could not send secret guards to sneak into the British government palace. He just bribed a rude little maid in the courtyard.
Although the maid was not from Meng Shu's yard, she soon learned that Lu and the people around Meng Shu were packing.
In addition, Meng Shu and the others did not deliberately conceal their plans to go to Guiyun City in five days, so the maid reported the news.
When the emperor heard about this, it was time to take a rest.
Then... I couldn't sleep!
In five days, Meng Shu will leave the capital.
The capital is so far away from Guiyun City. If he ever gets sick in the future, it would be delusional for him to seek treatment from her using the Nine-Turn Golden Needle Technique.
Although the remaining poison in his body has been cleared, and his current weakness is just pretending to show to others, as an emperor, he is surrounded by dangers.
There are many people who are eyeing the throne.
Apart from anything else, today he and the Queen Mother have different political opinions. The old witch is probably eager to let him see the Lord of Hell as soon as possible.
What if he accidentally gets poisoned again someday? How can he live without Meng Shu?
The more the emperor thought about it, the more he felt that his safety could only be guaranteed with Meng Shu in the capital.
After thinking about it clearly, a smile appeared on the emperor's face.
But then, he frowned again.
How should he keep Meng Shu in the capital?
Bai Yuanze told him that Meng Shu was very smart. When she helped him detoxify, she suspected his true identity, but she never made it clear.
"Wang Fusheng, send someone to invite Bai Yuanze!" the emperor suddenly ordered.
"Your Majesty...this...time has passed. If you send someone to invite Master Bai now, I am afraid that the whole palace will be alarmed!"
After hearing this, the emperor got up and returned to his bedroom. He took off his coat and threw it aside. After lying on the couch, he said calmly: "Go and invite someone. Just say that I fainted and was unconscious."
Wang Fusheng: "..."
