Ten Miles of Red Makeup: The Legend of Ming Yu

Chapter 305
After lunch, Ming concubine pushed Chu Mochen for a stroll to Changhui Courtyard to visit the old lady, to do the filial piety of a granddaughter-in-law.

As soon as this side entered Changhui Courtyard, a servant girl ran over there and hurriedly said, "My lord, someone shot another arrow in front of the palace just now."

Hearing this, Chu Mochen snorted coldly, "Everyone shoots arrows at the gate of the palace, and sooner or later the gate of the palace will be shot into a hornet's nest."

After waiting for a while, Manager Chu delivered the letter, which read the same as last time: From the son of the Prince of Zhennan.

The last letter was torn down by the Elder, and Chu Mochen sent a message to Manager Chu afterwards. From now on, all letters addressed to the Elder will be sent to him by Chen Xiangxuan.

This was an angry statement, but he also told Manager Chu that he was the only one to open his letters in the future.

Manager Chu delivered the letter to Chu Mochen, and there was not only the letter on the arrow, but also a porcelain bottle.

Knowing that someone had sent a letter, the elder and the others all came out of the house, only to see Chu Mochen open the letter, glanced at it twice, and became furious, uncontrollable, and furious.

The princess asked first, "Chen'er, what's wrong?"

Chu Mochen would not save face for Cheng Guogong and Jin Wang, he said coldly, "This letter was written by a quack doctor, it said that someone pretended to be his name to send a letter to the palace a few days ago, he wanted to know who corrupted him Fame, on the way Manager Chu delivered the medicine box, he took the opportunity to put poison on my 10 taels of silver note, but anyone who touches the silver note has no antidote, the poison will develop in three days, and death will undoubtedly occur in seven days."

The third wife took a deep breath, which means that there is no antidote, and the old lady will live well in two days?

The third master was very anxious, "Then what is in this bottle, is it the antidote?"

Chu Mochen nodded, "It's the antidote."

The third master was overjoyed, "Quickly serve the old lady!"

As he said that, he stretched out his hand to take it, Chu Mochen smiled coldly, and said, "Does Third Uncle think this is such a cheap thing in this world?"

The third master's face froze slightly, his hand was still stretched out in the air, and he only heard Chu Mochen say, "It's written in black and white on this letter, an antidote is 8000 taels, and the quack doctor asked me to collect the money for him. But he also pointed at others to cure my legs, third uncle, please don’t make it difficult for me.”

The third master hurriedly ordered, "Sister-in-law Wang, quickly take 8000 taels from the public house and give it to Chen'er."

The concubine frowned, and told Mother Qu, "Go to the prince and get one hundred and eight thousand taels from the public."

The eldest wife's face changed, "Why do you take so much, Mrs. Wang is planning to let the public pay the 10 taels for Chen'er's leg treatment?"

The concubine's face was as elegant as a chrysanthemum, "Sister-in-law, what do you mean is that the 10 taels for Chen'er's leg healing should be paid by the prince, and the old lady's 8000 taels for detoxification should be taken from the prince?"

The eldest lady choked and was speechless for a while.

What the third master meant was that this matter can be discussed later, and there will be absolutely no loss of a copper coin from the quack doctor, so let the old lady take the antidote first.

A bright smile flashed across Chu Mochen's eyes, and he said forcefully, "Let the old lady take the antidote first, but the 8000 taels should be paid by Cheng Guogong's mansion!"

Chu Mochen poured an antidote to the third master, who was worried about the old lady, turned around and entered the house.

After taking the antidote, within a quarter of an hour, the old lady was relieved, and the third master said, "The quack doctor sent two antidote..."

A lot of people were poisoned this time, aside from servants like Mama Qian, Duke Cheng and Mrs. Duke Cheng, as well as King Jin and Mu Yan were the ones who knew about it.

The scar removal ointment in Jianghu doctor's medicine box was given to Mu Yan, and it was also poisonous.

There is only one antidote left, who should it be used to save?
In the yard, Chu Mochen looked at the porcelain vase in his hand, with a troubled expression on his face, "8000 taels is nothing to Cheng Guogong's mansion and Jin Wang's mansion, if they come to me together for the antidote, who should I sell it to? Isn't this intentionally making things difficult for me?"

Ming concubine reminded him, "Sir, we have to get back the 10 taels of bank notes first."

Chu Mochen suddenly said, "Almost forgot about this, let's go, let's go to the palace."

Ming concubine hurriedly pushed Chu Mochen around, and the third master over there chased him out and said, "What are you doing in the palace?"

Chu Mochen sneered, and said, "There is only one antidote left, and Cheng Guogong and Jin Wang are bound to have only one person to live. The status of the two is very important in the court. I can only let the emperor decide who will be born." Whoever dies, and this letter, dare to cheat me for 10 taels, and make me a laughing stock in Kyoto!"

At the end, Chu Mochen's teeth creaked, obviously not letting go.

The third master's mouth moved, but he didn't say a word, but his expression was anxious.

The eldest wife and the eldest master stood aside, watching the expression of the third master, and there was a sneer in their eyes.

The natural is always the natural.

The old lady used to marry the Grand Master to fill the house in the name of taking care of the Grand Master. She always said that she regarded the Grand Master as her own, and would never favor the Third Master, let alone worry about the title that belonged to the Grand Master. As a result, the old man Renhe Cheng Guogong and Jin Wang teamed up to cheat the prince's 10 taels of consultation money, the Changfang has been kept in the dark.

It's okay to be kept in the dark, but it's the old lady and Cheng Guogong and the three old foxes who capsized in the gutter when they met a quack doctor with a weird temper.

Explaining to my concubine again, she pushed Chu Mochen out of the palace, got into the carriage, and went straight into the palace.

When they arrived at the imperial study room, the prince who had been summoned by the emperor to enter the palace had not yet left. Seeing them coming, he was slightly surprised, "Why did Chen'er enter the palace?"

Chu Mochen held the letter and the porcelain bottle in his hand, and said, "Not long after the father left, the quack doctor sent a letter and the antidote, and the old lady has already detoxified."

Still sensible, the emperor secretly approved.

It's just such a small matter, so there's no need for him to go to the palace to report it. Just as the emperor felt that something was wrong, he saw Chu Mochen raised his hand, asking Ming concubine to help him up.

The emperor frowned. This brat really knows how to put on airs. When King Zhennan was away, why didn't he kneel down to pay his respects? He hurriedly said, "Excuse me, just speak directly if you have something to say."

Chu Mochen sat back firmly and said, "Your Majesty, please make the decision for me!"

The mellow voice contained a bit of anger, and it was said very loudly, not only the emperor, but even the prince was taken aback. The monarch and his subjects looked at each other, and then the prince gave the emperor a supercilious look. Your son is playing tricks, you A real father doesn't know, look at me, can I know?

However, it can be vaguely guessed that Duke Cheng and King Jin have stumbled this time.

The emperor smiled faintly, and said, "Who messed with you, and you want me to make the decision for you?"

Chu Mochen delivered the letter and the medicine bottle in his hand, and Eunuch Deshun quickly took it and sent it to the emperor for the emperor to have a look at.

The emperor opened the letter and glanced at it. Just as he guessed, the two of them planned to poison the banknotes, so that those who plotted against them with ulterior motives would be exposed.

It's just that after reading a letter, the emperor's expression turned even worse when he saw the prince, and there was a bit of envy and jealousy hidden deep in his eyes.
