The Three Kingdoms: My Wife is a Great and Good Teacher

"Haha, it's my second sister? Didn't you go to recruit? How come you're back so soon? Eh..."

As Zhang Fei spoke, he saw Liu Zhaoqing on his second sister's shoulder, and his eyes immediately widened like bells.

"Oh my god!" Zhang Fei was shocked. "Second sister, are you serious?"

"?"

Zhang Fei walked around Guan Yu, then looked at the unconscious Liu Zhaoqing and said in shock: "Second sister, you are brave enough to take responsibility. I, Zhang Fei, only dared to talk about it, but I didn't expect that you would take action and capture him directly."

"But don't worry, second sister!" Zhang Fei patted his chest, "When you tell this to your eldest sister, I'll be included in the discussion."

"Where is elder sister now?" Feeling that Liu Zhaoqing's breath on his shoulder was beginning to weaken, Guan Yu did not have time to explain to her and asked immediately.

"Eldest sister and Jian Yong went to supervise the construction work beside the Yellow River." Zhang Fei said, then touched his head: "Oh, by the way, not long ago, eldest sister came back once, and praised this kid for being generous. I could smell the smile and love on her face from a long distance away. Now, second sister, you just made a move and it worked!"

"Although I will definitely be scolded and reprimanded by my elder sister, she is not a child anymore, and this important matter should be taken seriously. As sisters, we must consider her. Second sister, you must understand this principle better than me..."

Halfway through his chatter, Zhang Fei suddenly tilted his head and looked at Liu Zhaoqing, who was also tilting his head on Guan Yu's shoulder: "Hey, second sister, something is wrong, why does this kid look like he's about to die?"

"Second sister, you don't have to be so cruel, right? Although this guy cheated me before, and I asked you to help me get revenge, isn't this the past? After all, we are a family now. What if he tells my eldest sister about us?"

"Stop talking nonsense, go find my elder sister quickly, otherwise he will die soon." Guan Yu said seriously.

Zhang Fei was not a fool. He now understood that Liu Zhaoqing was in real trouble, and his expression changed immediately.

"That won't do. He's going to die. Then we can't take advantage of Big Sister's good mood to ask for money to buy wine!"

After saying that, Zhang Fei immediately said: "Second sister, wait a moment, I will go find the eldest sister right away..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud neighing of horses was heard outside the county magistrate's mansion.

Then Liu Bei dismounted and walked anxiously towards the hall with a trembling step.

"Second sister and third sister, why are you here? I just saw a group of ferocious beasts flying towards the plain at the river bank. Are the people in danger?" As Liu Bei spoke, he saw that there was another person on Guan Yu's shoulder.

"Huh? Isn't this... Zhao Qing?" Liu Bei was surprised, and then immediately asked: "What happened to him?"

Guan Yu told Liu Bei what had just happened.

Liu Bei also frowned after hearing this: "How could it be... Fu Xi should live in the mountains of Bingzhou. It's rare for him to fly so far to the plains, and he's specifically chasing Zhao Qing..."

"Sister, stop reciting. He will die if you continue." Zhang Fei reminded her quickly.

Liu Bei reacted and looked at Liu Zhaoqing who was placed on the table. She knew there was a way to save Liu Zhaoqing, but she hesitated.

"Second sister, third sister, please don't tell anyone."

"Don't worry, big sister. There's no way we can tell outsiders about this."

"You can't tell Liu Zhaoqing either."

"what?"

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were both stunned for a moment, then nodded.

Then Liu Bei immediately said, "Send him to my room quickly. Second sister, you are more careful. Go and deal with Fu Xi's body. Remember to burn it with a strong fire and bury the remaining ashes in a deep pit."

"Third sister, send someone to appease the people. Remember not to get angry and explain patiently."

-

I don’t know how long it had been, but Liu Zhaoqing felt his head was as heavy as a block of lead and his internal organs felt like they were burning.

However, his eyelids still found a little strength to slowly open, and the outline of a woman appeared in his eyes.

"Wife."

He murmured subconsciously.

"Hmm? Are you calling me?" The woman seemed not to understand what it meant.

Now Liu Zhaoqing was also confused. How could his wife not understand this?

Like a camera focusing, the blur in my vision gradually clears up as my mind becomes clearer.

The image of the woman in his eyes also gradually changed from the vague image of Zhang Jiao to a gentle and weak woman with her hair tied up.

"Hmm? You are...Liu Bei?"

Liu Zhaoqing woke up immediately and tried to stand up, but found that he had not much strength.

"Zhao Qing, don't panic. Everything is fine now." Liu Bei stepped forward and supported his back.

"I'm sorry, I... seem to be too weak and suddenly fainted." Liu Zhaoqing apologized. The last thing he was aware of was that he was halfway through his words and then collapsed.

Liu Bei shook his head: "This is not related to Zhao Qing's physique, but the miasma in Fu Xi's body. Fortunately, my second sister brought you here quickly. After taking the medicine, you are fine now. Otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous."

Took the medicine? Liu Zhaoqing looked at the bowl on the chair beside the bed.

"Thank you, Sister Xuande, for saving me." Liu Zhaoqing thanked and then propped himself up.

"Is Fu Xi's body still there? We can't just leave something like this unattended."

"Don't worry, I've handed it over to my second sister."

"That's good. Thank you for your hard work, General Guan. That thing looks... really a bit disgusting." Liu Zhaoqing nodded.

Then he got out of bed and bowed to Liu Bei: "Thank you again, Sister Xuande. It's getting dark and I have to go back quickly, otherwise my family will worry."

After saying that, Liu Zhaoqing looked at the little bit of medicine left on the chair. Adhering to the principle of not wasting, he lifted the bowl and drank it all.

Not to mention, it tasted pretty good. He had no idea what kind of medicinal herbs it was made from, but he even tasted a bit of the milk from his previous life.

"Hiccup~"

Liu Zhaoqing burped and licked the corner of his mouth subconsciously.

At this moment, Liu Bei's face suddenly turned red.

"Well... I'm sorry, it's really rude." Liu Zhaoqing suddenly realized that he was drinking medicine, not milk, and suddenly felt that he had lost his composure, even a little socially awkward.

"By the way, why does this quilt have a fragrance? Is there any kapok tree in the world that has its own fragrance?" Liu Zhaoqing was just making small talk.

"Because... this is my room..."

"Ah?" Liu Zhaoqing was embarrassed again, "That's not what I meant."

Liu Zhaoqing, who felt that he could carve out a three-bedroom and one-living-room apartment, quickly bowed to Liu Bei, thanked him again, and hurried out of the room.

After Liu Zhaoqing walked out of the room, Liu Bei also breathed a sigh of relief.

Then she looked at the empty bowl on the chair, and the sunset glow appeared in her ears again.

In fact, Liu Zhaoqing was not the only one who suffered social death.

-

After leaving the mansion, Liu Zhaoqing shook his head and sighed, thinking about his performance just now.

"I was so out of control just now...even a little...obscene. I think it must have greatly diminished my reputation in her eyes."

Oh, now the friendship that had just been established with Beibei is about to fall apart in an instant.

Chapter 24: Sister-in-law!

"I guess I can only hope that the Empress's sister-in-law is not fussy about trivial matters. She shouldn't be a stingy person." Liu Zhaoqing thought about it as he stood at the gate of the county magistrate's mansion, and then he felt a little more relaxed.

If Liu Bei was really angry, he should have shown his displeasure on the spot and called him by his name.

Thinking back to just now, Liu Bei kept calling him "Zhao Qing", which means he probably didn't care about his rudeness.

Although a broken friendship is difficult to mend, Liu Zhaoqing feels that if Liu Bei needs to raise money again in the future, he should be able to save the relationship if he is more generous.

Money is not an important thing to Liu Zhaoqing.

Others may not know, but Liu Zhaoqing knew. A few years later, the warlord Dong Zhuo destroyed the Wu Zhu coin and minted a large number of inferior coins without any text on them, which led to inflation across the country. In addition, the wars among warlords made the money worthless and worse than scrap iron.

It will be common to see things like tens of thousands of five-zhu coins not being able to buy three pounds of meat.

The most correct thing to do at this time is to either exchange the earned Wuzhu money for hard currency such as grain, silk, and gold, or spend it quickly and exchange it for resources.

Investing in Liu Bei, of course, is also a kind of "resource" in exchange for spending.

"Whoo~"

Thinking of this, Liu Zhaoqing didn't think about it any more.

"You'd better go home quickly, it's getting dark."

Liu Zhaoqing looked up at the sky, and then was surprised: "But Sister Xuande's medicine is really powerful. The miasma of Fuxi was solved so quickly. When I fainted, I thought I would have to lie down for at least a few days."

"I don't know what good stuff it is. Once we have a solid friendship, I'll see if I can let Baoer learn it."

Without the sickness and discomfort of just recovering from a serious illness, Liu Zhaoqing walked briskly and even felt that he was in better condition than when he met Fu Xi before, which made him puzzled.

He immediately took out the human book from his arms, then flipped to his own attribute panel and was stunned for a moment.

"Charm 82? Wasn't it 79 before?"

The rest of the attributes remained unchanged, except for the charm which suddenly increased a little.

Liu Zhaoqing was puzzled: "The quick recovery of my mental state can be attributed to the effect of Liu Bei's medicine, but the improvement of this charm attribute... could it be the effect of the miasma of that ugly duck? It shouldn't be..."

"No matter what, it's always good to have improvement. I was really worried about how to improve this charm before..."

"Patriarch! Patriarch!!"

Just as Liu Zhaoqing was thinking about his condition on the side of the road, a call suddenly came from the front.

When I looked up, I saw Baoer running towards me.

"what happened?"

"Master, you...you..."

"Speak slowly, don't be in a hurry."

"…Are you OK?"

Liu Zhaoqing was speechless, and then he asked and found out that the news of Fu Xi's arrival had spread throughout Pingyuan County in a short time, and the destination he flew to was Baixi Tower. Naturally, Zhang Jiao and Baoer at home also heard about it.

They were extremely anxious at first, but after the little girl returned home and told several people that Liu Zhaoqing had been rescued, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But they waited and waited at home for more than an hour, and still didn't see Liu Zhaoqing come back, so they started to get anxious again.

Fortunately, the woman my daughter mentioned who saved Liu Zhaoqing had obvious appearance characteristics. Baoer asked a few people and found out that the person was from the county magistrate's mansion, so he ran to the county magistrate's mansion to find Liu Zhaoqing and met her there.

After returning home with Baoer, Zhang Jiao had been waiting at the door for a long time. Seeing Liu Zhaoqing safe and sound, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why hasn't Qingjun come home for so long? Baoer and I are all worried." Zhang Jiao rarely showed some resentful emotions.

Liu Zhaoqing also hurried to apologize.

Then when Liu Zhaoqing returned to the bedroom, Zhang Jiao suddenly asked about Liu Zhaoqing's physical condition, and asked him to stretch out his hand so that she could take his pulse.

"Jiaoer can take pulses?" Liu Zhaoqing was surprised.

"I learned a little from the Tai Ping Yao Shu." Zhang Jiao frowned slightly after taking the pulse.

"What's wrong? Why does Jiao'er have that expression? I should be fine, right?" Liu Zhaoqing asked hurriedly.

"It's indeed fine. You can even say that it's... full of energy. But I heard that the ferocious beast Qingjun encountered was a Fuxi. Fuxi beasts like to live in mountains with poisonous swamps. There is miasma in their bodies that can cause serious illness to ordinary people. Even after death, if it is not burned immediately, the corpse will continue to release this miasma..." Zhang Jiao didn't quite understand.

"My daughter said that the female general chopped all five ducks in half. Qingjun, who was beside her corpse, should have been affected as well, right?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhaoqing, who originally did not want to make Zhang Jiao worry and therefore did not want to say that he was saved by Liu Bei, had to reveal the truth.

"Saved by the county magistrate?" Zhang Jiao was surprised. "Just by drinking a bowl of her medicine?"

"Yes what's the matter?"

Zhang Jiao shook her head and said, "I'm glad Qingjun is okay. My daughter seems to have suffered some external injuries and just now refused to let Baoer treat her. I'd like to trouble Qingjun to persuade her. My daughter seems to only listen to Qingjun."

Liu Zhaoqing nodded upon hearing this and immediately walked out of the room to persuade the autistic little girl.

After her husband left, Zhang Jiao, who was sitting at the table, had a thoughtful look in her eyes.

"According to the Taiping Essentials, there is no cure for Fu Xi's poison. At most, it can only delay the onset of the disease, and the patient will suffer from abdominal diseases of varying degrees for the rest of his life. However... Qing Jun did not suffer from any root cause of the disease at all."

"Liu Bei...Liu Xuande...his last name is Liu...then we can observe this person for a while."

-

The next day, after Liu Zhaoqing woke up from bed, he looked at Zhang Jiao beside him. Zhang Jiao seemed to feel his gaze and opened her eyes slightly.

"Qingjun, are you going out?"
