Ten Miles of Red Makeup: The Legend of Ming Yu

Chapter 311
Mama Qian opened her mouth, seeing that Xi'er was about to stuff the pill in, when Mrs. Mu suddenly stood up and said, "The antidote was bought for Yan'er!"

Xi'er was stunned, quickly took her hand back, and stood behind Ming concubine.

Chu Mochen frowned and said, "The one who bought it for my cousin said directly, why are you beating around the bush like this, it seems to move Mama Qian, and when did my cousin get poisoned as well as the old lady? "

The corner of Ming Concubine's mouth twitched. She didn't know how Mama Qian felt when she heard this, but it hurt her heart anyway.

Mrs. Mu sat up straight for a few minutes, but she also said that if Mama Qian really took the antidote, who would pay for the 8000 taels?After spending the money, her daughter still has no antidote, and she still has to say it after all.

Mrs. Mu said sullenly, "I don't know why your cousin was poisoned, but the imperial doctor said that her poison was the same as that of the old lady. Yan'er is ignorant, and she made a fuss by offending the princess. I have no way to teach her. I really couldn't open my mouth, so I used Mother Qian as an excuse..."

Chu Mochen suddenly realized, and didn't hold on to how Mu Yan was poisoned, and said lightly, "How could I have the same knowledge as my cousin? The Mu family is too small to treat a gentleman's belly with the heart of a villain."

Being said to be a villain, Mrs. Mu tightened her hands and said, "The antidote..."

Chu Mochen instructed Xi'er, "Bring the antidote to Mrs. Mu."

Mrs. Mu said, "This antidote fell on the ground, let's change it."

The bank note was missing, but there were a lot of things to do, Chu Mochen said in surprise, "Pay first."

Mrs. Mu didn't shirk it. The 8000 taels could not be lost. She brought the bank notes, and immediately handed them over to Ming Concubine.

Ming concubine poured out another antidote, and after Mrs. Mu took the antidote, she turned towards the old lady and hurried away.

Holding an antidote in her hand, Xi'er said, "Concubine Shizi, what should I do with this antidote?" She couldn't hold such a valuable medicine in her hand all the time.

Mama Qian glanced at the antidote and watched Xi'er wrap it up carefully with an embroidered handkerchief. The longing in her eyes was gradually covered by desolation. She stood up with difficulty and said with a sob, "My servant... I will go back first."

The old lady couldn't bear it, after all, she was someone who had been with her for decades, but 8000 taels... is really too much.

Coming out of the inner room, the scorching sun hit her body, but Mama Qian didn't feel any warmth, only bursts of coolness.

Seeing Mama Qian's lonely and desolate back, Concubine Ming felt a little sympathetic to her.

After returning to Chen Xiangxuan, Xi'er happily counted how much money Ming concubine earned today. The old lady, Cheng Guogong and Cheng Guogong's wife, Jin Wang and Mu Biao girl had five lives, a total of 4 taels, but The ones I got now are only 8000 taels. I don't know when Duke Cheng and King Jin will deliver the bank notes.

Here, Xi'er was praying from the bottom of her heart to hurry up, while Haitang ran in and said, "My lord, my concubine, Cheng Guogong's mansion has sent the bank notes and the steward!"

Chu Mochen was drinking tea, and smiled when he heard the words, "It was delivered really fast, let those in charge come in."

Haitang looked strange, and said, "Come, I can't come..."

"What's wrong?" Minnie asked.

Haitang swallowed and said, "The eight stewards all committed suicide by taking poison. The steward of Duke Cheng's mansion brought their bodies here with a cart."

There is nothing more unlucky than sending eight corpses to the gate of the palace.

Ming concubine took a deep breath, Cheng Guogong's mansion must have been too cruel, in order to save face and not bear the crime of deceiving the king, he did not hesitate to silence all the stewards who worked for him, and sent their bodies to To deliberately disgust them.

Everyone is dead, or "suicide in fear of crime", this case cannot be investigated any further.

But Ming concubine didn't sympathize with those in charge who died. It wasn't her and Chu Mochen who killed them, but their masters who worked hard. I'm afraid that they have done some unreasonable things for helping Cheng Guogong's mansion all these years. Think of it as doing justice for the heavens.

This time, they went head-to-head with Cheng Guogong, Jin Wang and the old lady. Except for the damage to Chu Mochen's reputation before, they didn't suffer any losses. One hand, swept away the haze and felt elated.

It's just that the spring breeze is proud now, but the bond with them is getting bigger and bigger, and you have to be more cautious in your actions in the future. There is also Chu Mochen's legs. The quack doctor must never show up again. His legs are messed up. It is suitable for practicing walking. Within a month, you will be able to walk like flying.

Now that you have acted, you have to perform well.

Early the next morning, the genius Ma Maliang, the servant of the palace opened the door, and an arrow shot at the gate of the palace, and the servant screamed to break the silence.

The letter was sent by someone sent by a quack doctor, and there were two prescriptions in the letter, which were for Chu Mochen to treat his broken leg. Because someone had tricked him before, Zhao Yuanzheng was asked to have a look at the prescription, and it must be a rare one. Only when you have a good prescription, you dare to take the medicine.

The prescription was the main point, but the letter also mentioned other things incidentally, that is, about the 10 taels of consultation fee and the medicine box.

In the letter, Jianghu Langzhong gave the medicine box to Ming Concubine and Chu Mochen, and Chu Mochen will collect the 13 taels of consultation fee. He will come to pick it up in the future. As for when he will come, maybe half a year, maybe three to five years, Maybe I will never come to Beijing again...

That's right, the quack has left Beijing. Long after he poisoned the banknotes, he knew that there was no place for him in the capital, so he arranged everything and left Beijing quietly.

This is a quack with self-knowledge.

Abandoning his identity as a quack doctor, Zhao Cheng said that he felt relaxed and enjoyed eating well.

After breakfast, concubine Ming pushed Chu Mochen to Changhui Courtyard to greet the old lady. She had a good night's sleep, and the old lady looked ruddy. It was hard to find the bulging veins on her forehead from the pain of the previous two days.

Seeing Ming concubine and Chu Mochen enter the room, the cold light in the old lady's eyes suddenly disappeared.

The eldest wife was the first to speak out, and said, "The quack doctor really left you the medicine box and bank notes, and then left Beijing?"

Chu Mochen didn't bother to answer, and Ming concubine replied, "The medicine box was given to us, and those bank notes were just kept by my husband."

The third wife said with yin and yang, "If the quack doctor never returns to Beijing, wouldn't this banknote be given to you?"

Chu Mochen's beautiful phoenix eyes swept away lightly, and the third wife changed the subject and said with a smile, "Chen'er will inherit the Zhennan Palace in the future, so why would he take that mere 10,000+ taels of silver in his eyes, it's the third aunt's slip of the tongue gone."

Concubine Ming went up to say hello to the old lady, she held a ointment and an embroidered handkerchief in her hand, and said, "The quack doctor gave us the medicine box, and my husband and I can make decisions about the medicine in it. This is the ointment for removing scars. The girl's cheek was injured, and this ointment was given to her, and the antidote wrapped in this veil can be used to save Qian's mother."

The medicine box was given to them, and the things in it naturally couldn't be charged. The left and right old ladies and the Mu family would ask Chu Mochen for ointment and antidote to save Qian's mother, so it's better to just ask.
