Chapter 308 Miscalculation
Ming concubine casts a miscalculated look at Chu Mochen, you want to see a dog-eat-dog scene, but what he plays is love and mutual humility.

How can Duke Cheng compare with King Jin?
The queen mother is just a son of King Jin. If the antidote is really snatched by Cheng Guogong, and the king of Jin dies, the queen mother will definitely kill the quack doctor, and will not let the Zhennan prince's mansion go, even more so. Cheng Guogong, whose son has a chance to live, is a thorn in the flesh.

Cheng Guogong knew that he was not the queen mother's opponent, so he would rather give up the hope of living generously and seek a bright future for Cheng Guogong's mansion.

Old fox!

But the King of Jin is not bad either, he is openly robbing, and it is estimated that it will arouse Cheng Guogong's heart to compete, so he simply gives in, the old Duke can't say yes, he will definitely come back humbly...

The Queen Mother said, "The Duke and his wife are very affectionate, which is touching. Since the Duke of Cheng wants to fulfill you and die with his wife, King Jin should not refuse any more. The late emperor passed away, leaving mourning Home, that feeling, Ai Jia knows."

Cheng Guogong's face turned pale, Ming concubine thought he should be repeating a sentence at the moment: Why don't you continue to be humble, why don't you continue to be humble...

The emperor sat on the dragon chair with an indescribable expression on his face. It was not what the emperor wanted to see Cheng Guogong and King Jin giving in to each other. The two joined forces to plot against Chu Mochen, and they gave in to each other at the critical moment of life and death, which showed the relationship between the two. Far from being average.

King Jin is the empress dowager's son, he always misses the throne, and is the person the emperor fears the most.

Chu Mochen sent the antidote to the emperor. No matter whether Jin Wang and Cheng Guogong are dog-eat-dog, or they give in to each other, he is invincible.

The emperor didn't speak, but the queen mother said, "Your majesty, the antidote."

The emperor waved his hand, and Eunuch Deshun gave the antidote to King Jin. King Jin couldn't wait to take the medicine bottle, and he couldn't wait for the maid to bring the tea, so he swallowed the medicine.

At this time, a father-in-law outside came in with a medicine box in his hands. He stepped forward, and for some reason, he tilted his body and threw the medicine box out, which happened to be thrown in Ming's direction.

It was very close, and Ming concubine hugged the medicine box tightly without thinking too much.

She stood still, and when she looked up, she saw a successful smile flickering on the corner of the mouth of the Grand Master of the Duke of Cheng's Mansion, and it was so fast that the Ming concubine blinked, and when she looked again, she looked mournful and angry again.

Was it her illusion? Absolutely not. She didn't believe that her father-in-law's dropping the medicine box was a simple accident.

Could it be that the medicine inside was destroyed, and the little eunuch's fall just happened to blame the steward of their family, but why didn't he throw it on someone else, and deliberately threw it on her?
Ming concubine's eyes turned, she held the medicine box firmly, and with a slight movement of the tip of her nose, her brows twisted into twists.

I really don’t cry without seeing the coffin!

She actually put the poisonous powder from the silver ticket on the medicine box, and she would be poisoned as soon as she touched the medicine box.

Chu Mochen doesn't need to care about the lives of King Jin and Cheng Guogong, but he must always be concerned about her. She was the first to save the quack doctor. If Chu Mochen knew the whereabouts of the quack doctor, she must know it too.

Ming concubine's eyes flickered coldly, and Chu Mochen asked, "Are you alright?"

The little eunuch fell to his knees with a plop, begging the emperor to forgive him.

Even without the emperor saying anything, Father Deshun said, "Such a clumsy person, drag him out and stick him for thirty!"

The little father-in-law begged hard, but was quickly dragged down by someone covering his mouth.

Mingyu shook her head, "I'm fine."

Chu Mochen stretched out his hand, Ming concubine gave him the medicine box, and it was fair to the country, "Don't..."

Chu Mochen looked at him, "What's wrong?"

Cheng Guogong said, "The banknotes are placed in the medicine box. When the manager took them out, he didn't know that the banknotes were poisonous. He touched the medicine box..."

Seeing that Ming Concubine and Chu Mochen were both poisoned, Cheng Guogong's face improved a lot, and even if he died, there would be two more people behind him.

Chu Mochen's face changed for a moment, and then he smiled, "Duke Cheng is really magnanimous. I had someone rob the mansion of Duke Cheng. You still hope that I can live well, but this poison is different from the usual poison. It will be poisoned in two days." It’s gone, there’s no poison left on the medicine box right now, so it’s okay for me to hold it.”

What Chu Mochen said was calm, Cheng Guogong's face flushed and turned pale, and his face was even uglier than when he watched King Jin swallow the antidote.

After all, this is his only hope of living against the general, and now that it is broken like this, how can he be happy?
Chu Mochen felt that he was a bit cruel, and crushed his hopes so ruthlessly. He should cooperate. Is there still time for him to cooperate?
The queen mother caught something, and said, "How did the prince of Zhennan know that the poison will be gone in two days?"

Chu Mochen looked at the Queen Mother and said, "Guess."

The queen mother's face changed, "Guess? Do you think Aijia will believe such a reason?!"

Chu Mochen rolled his eyes, he said his, as for the queen mother, believe it or not, that is your business, what has it to do with him, Chu Mochen didn't bother to explain, Ming concubine said for him, "The quack doctor rescued the dying and healed the wounded. In my time, I said that saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. The poison was put on the bank note. The bank note is an unusual thing. No one knows how many people it will pass through when it is circulated in the market. It is too cruel to poison everyone we meet, based on our knowledge of quack doctor, he would not do such a cruel thing, since he sent a letter asking us to get back the medicine box for him, it means there must be no problem with the medicine box."

This explanation is reasonable, and the queen mother has nothing to say, but the queen mother disagrees with Ming's statement that a quack doctor saves lives and heals the wounded. She absolutely believes that far more people died at the hands of a quack doctor than he saved.

If Zhao Cheng heard this, he would probably fall in admiration for the Queen Mother. He did kill more people than he saved...

Chu Mochen opened the medicine box and said, "Check if the medicine is missing."

Ming concubine opened the medicine bottles one by one, then checked, and said, "I see that they are all there."

The medicine used by quack doctors is expensive, and they don't know how to use it for nothing. After Cheng Guogong and the others are poisoned, they dare not touch the medicine.

The medicines are all there, and there are a lot of bank notes.

After the concubine Ming finished checking, Chu Mochen closed the medicine box, and a father-in-law outside quickly stepped in, holding a letter in his hand, and said, "Your Majesty, someone shot a letter on the palace gate, it's for King Zhennan of the world."

The corner of the emperor's mouth twitched.

This is too much!

It's fine to shoot arrows at the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, but he dares to shoot arrows at the palace gate!
The emperor knew that it was Chu Mochen and Ming concubine who were the troublemakers, so he didn't get angry. The queen mother said angrily, "It's really a shame to dare to shoot arrows at the palace gate. Such a contempt for the majesty of the royal family is a crime that deserves to be punished!"

The little eunuch shrank aside, Chu Mochen said, "Speak up if you have something to say."

The little eunuch said in a weak voice, "The gate of the palace is guarded by guards, and the archers dare not get too close. The arrow fell to the ground as soon as it touched the gate of the palace, and it did not hurt the gate..."

Chu Mochen laughed, "This is not contempt for the majesty of the royal family. Such self-inflicted humiliation shows that the royal family is inviolable. He must think that the imperial palace is the same as my Zhennan Palace."
