Concubine Chongxi: Binding the Medicine Jar to the Master

Chapter 276 Mo Li, You Break Your Word
When Zhizhou heard that he was going to be beheaded, he was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder burst, and the bitter taste of bile even filled his throat.He kowtowed and begged for mercy: "His Royal Highness, it is my dereliction of duty to let those gangsters sneak in without investigating for a while! I will immediately deal with the matter of Shanren Town, and I will definitely bring those gangsters to justice. Shanren Town is fair!"

Baili Jiuge said: "You should have done this a long time ago. What did you do before? And you haven't answered Mo Li's question just now. Quickly tell me whether you were kept in the dark or just kept your eyes closed." With one eye, take advantage of those gangsters?"

"The concubine is wronged!" Zhizhou kowtowed at Baili Jiuge and kept shouting: "The lowly position has been governing Licheng for more than ten years. When did the corrupt law ever get used to it? It's just that as time goes by, the lowly position will inevitably relax. That’s why those gangsters are allowed to lie to the sky.”

Mo Li said coldly: "It is indeed a lie. Even I am amazed that such a mistake can be made."

"His Royal Highness, please forgive me... Please allow the lowly position to take the blame and make meritorious service!" On Zhizhou's forehead, three big purple bumps had appeared.

Baili Jiuge really didn't like to see others bowing in front of his eyes, so he asked, "Mo Li, what are you going to do?"

Mo Li smiled softly, turned his eyes, and said in a cold voice: "Lord Zhizhou, within a month, you can solve the matter of Shanren Town without any mistakes. If you do well, I can still be in front of my father." Say a few words for you. If you can't do it well, then pay with your life."

"Yes, yes... the humble post obeys!"

After Mo Li left the prefect gate, Baili Jiuge asked him whether he would stay here to supervise the prefect, or go back to Xiqi.

Mo Li said that the affairs of Shanren Town will be handed over to Zhizhou. Zhizhou has been an official for many years, and some things are still clear. This time, he will try his best to solve them.

A carriage was brought out from the post station in Licheng, driven by Yufeng, and the two sat in the carriage, embracing each other to steal some time to rest.

The carriage drove all the way to Xiqi...

What happened later, Baili Jiuge heard from Yufeng a month later, saying that the magistrate of Licheng was forced by Mo Li and tried his best to solve the Shanren Town matter within the time limit.

The gangsters in the town were said to have been caught and executed.The townspeople were able to see the light of day again. Although they lost their elderly parents and their children, they were still grateful to Licheng Zhizhou.

Na Zhizhou is also a sensible person, he repeatedly shirks his gratitude to the people, saying that His Royal Highness, Shizi, has seen the details and saved them from fire and water, as for himself, he is just a worker.

Then Zhizhou took the townspeople to the cave, transported all the corpses out of the cave, buried them one by one, and distributed some pensions to the townspeople.

In view of the unsatisfactory performance after Zhizhou, Mo Li reported the truth to Mo Yang, and Mo Yang let Mo Li take care of it.Therefore, Mo Li demoted the magistrate of Nali City to two grades, and relegated him to the county magistrate, who governed one county and six towns including Shanren Town.

The matter of Shanren Town will end well.

But after experiencing this incident, Yufeng picked all the red and blue corpse fruits back.Baili Jiuge counted carefully, there are 93 in total.

She remembered that the senior ghost doctor once said that using the corpse red fruit and corpse blue fruit, supplemented with other medicinal materials, can make a panacea to drive away the cold. Baili Jiuge thought that this must be good for Mo Li's body.

However, only the ghost doctor knows how to prepare it.The ghost doctor had been missing for so long, Baili Jiuge couldn't help feeling anxious.

She had no choice but to ask Yufeng to put the corpse red fruit and corpse blue fruit in the cellar for storage, and when the senior ghost doctor got news again, she could contact him to prepare the elixir for Mo Li.

However, since they returned to Shanshui Bieyuan from Lanzhuang, Baili Jiuge discovered that Mo Li often went out and had less time to come back.

She knew what he was busy with, and although she felt sorry for his body, but because she couldn't help her, she took good care of the baby in another courtyard, so as not to cause trouble to Mo Li.

Gradually, Mo Li spent less and less time going home, often disappearing at dawn and only returning late at night.

Because Baili Jiuge needed to go to bed early, she often fell asleep alone. After sleeping for a long time, she vaguely felt that Mo Li was on the bed and hugged her in her arms.

I heard from Yu Lei that the arrangements for the expedition to the Shang Kingdom are about to be made, and it won't be long before war breaks out.

Baili Jiuge calculated the time, and it was about the time when she gave birth. Although she really didn't want to see the war, she also understood that the war was inevitable.

And these days, there are also some things in the palace.Mo Xun, who was said to be insane, clamored to go to the mountains to become a savage, making the palace unsafe.In the end, Mo Yang and the Queen Mother had no choice but to send him to the mountains and send some people to protect him, and the matter was settled.

In the blink of an eye, several days passed, and Baili Jiuge was more than seven months pregnant, and her movements became more and more inconvenient.

Summer is gradually passing away, Baili Jiuge is wearing a red dress, leaning against the door of the other courtyard, stroking her stomach, thinking about whether her child is "Ling'er" or "Jin'er", and thinking about Mo Li, her eyes are full of revel.

At this time, a figure appeared outside the door.

The person who came was a dirty beggar, holding a porcelain bowl with a missing corner, begging: "Madam, please, please let me go into the house to rest for a while, and give me something to eat. I haven't eaten for several days. I haven't slept well for days..."

Baili Jiuge was about to agree subconsciously, but suddenly felt that the beggar looked at her a little strangely, and he couldn't tell what was wrong, just felt strange.

She frowned, thinking that Mo Li often told her to be more careful, so she called Yu Lei over: "Yu Lei, get this little brother something to eat, and give him a blanket!"

Yu Lei went to do it immediately, and Yu Ying's figure emerged to protect Baili Jiuge nearby.

After Yu Lei finished the meal, he gave it to the beggar together with the blanket, and then sent him away.

Although Baili Jiuge felt a little apologetic in his heart, he thought that if there was a blanket, the beggar brother would be able to wrap himself up and sleep soundly, so he could be considered as helping him.

Outside the other courtyard, the beggar walked farther and farther away, and the hand holding the rice bowl was shaking more and more.

Mo Xun's entire face twisted, his eyes filled with resentment.

He originally thought that he could gain Baili Jiuge's sympathy in this way, sneak into the other courtyard, and find a good opportunity to deal with her when she was unprepared, and take revenge on Mo Li, but he didn't expect his luck to be so bad, why? Baili Jiuge wasn't fooled by him?
Mo Xun gritted his teeth, thinking that since this is not possible, then he can only come in hard, so he hired a group of killers to come in.As long as the killer he finds is powerful enough, even the two Yu Lei and Yu Ying can't parry him!
For several days, Baili Jiuge didn't see the "beggar" again, and her life became calm again.

Mo Li still leaves early and returns late. Gradually, he becomes more busy, sometimes he doesn't return all night, and he comes back early the next morning. After eating breakfast with Baili Jiuge, he goes to the palace again. middle.

One night at the end of summer, Wenyang brought Baili Jiuge a medicinal meal according to Mo Li's instructions.After Baili Jiuge finished eating, he felt a little tired, so he took a rest.

Lying alone on the couch, for some reason, there is always a faint anxiety lingering in my mind, as if it was unintentional, and I can't explain the cause of the anxiety.

Drowsy, Baili Jiuge fell into a dream.

In the dream, she seemed to hear the baby crying, and the surroundings were swaying, and the midwife who couldn't see her face was encouraging her.

She tried her best to see everything clearly, but she couldn't see anything clearly. Even Mo Li, who was anxiously guarding the side of the bed, was blurred like a moon shadow for the first time.

"Mo Li...Mo Li..." She could only call him like this.

And his gentle voice seemed to come from far away: "Jiu Ge, our baby is born, it is very healthy and very cute."

"Show me!" She shouted excitedly, but felt that the big hand holding her gradually loosened its grip.

"Jiuge, I can rest assured that I will have it with you in the future..."

Mo Li's slender figure crashed down, and at this moment, Baili Jiuge's heart was buried in overwhelming pain, and then his eyes blurred, and he screamed out in complete pain: "Mo Li!"

However, the little hand was loosened, and all the tenderness was cruelly turned into flying ashes in the snap of the fingers.

It wasn't until this moment that she realized...

It turned out that he had been strong for a long time.

It turned out that he had already run out of fuel!

"Jiu Ge, I didn't give you the greatest happiness. I wish... I will never meet you again in the next life... I regret this life, but in the next life, I don't want to have another..."

Baili Jiuge couldn't cry out in pain, the surroundings were silent and there was no sound, she was lonely as if her heart had died.

"Mo Li, what nonsense are you talking... Didn't you promise me that the only thing that can kill you is time! When you made up the wedding night for me in Heluo, I also said it myself. And the same acupoint, forever and ever, will never be separated! Didn’t you promise me to be a couple for the rest of my life? Why did I end up alone and with white hair all my life!”

The Baili Jiuge in the dream seemed to be holding the baby, walking on a long road that would never see him again, with tears in his eyes, he fell and got up, got up and fell, and finally couldn't go on anymore. Sitting on the ground collapsed and weeping.

For the sake of the child in her arms, she didn't even have the right to go with him, so she could only live her whole life with her memories in her arms, thinking about the person she would never forget all her life.

"Mo Li..."

"You broke your promise and abandoned me."

"Mo Li..."

"You... you bastard! You bastard!"

Waking up suddenly, Baili Jiuge's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his face seemed to be wet.She wiped, and all that was wiped were cold tears.

Her brain seemed to be scratched by a blunt hard object, and she was still in pain. She could clearly see her tall belly and this dark, lonely bedroom.

Until now, her mind is still filled with the words of Mo Li's farewell, and she can't breathe so much!

The nightmare just now, why is it so real!
For no reason, why dream of such a tragic ending!
