Chapter 150: Machine Guidance
When the people in the General's Mansion saw that the Emperor was going to punish their pillars, they all came up and knelt down, saying in unison, "Your Majesty, please forgive me."
Emperor Yuan felt an indescribable pleasure when he saw the people in the General's Mansion kneeling on the ground. He could still control them. No matter how amazing the stories in the outside world were, didn't they still have to crawl at the feet of the emperor?
"General, the old lady, please get up quickly. What are you doing standing there? Go and help her up!" Emperor Yuan kicked the eunuch beside him.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. No need to bother the eunuch." With the help of everyone, the old general and the old lady stood up, but did not return to their seats immediately. That was because Emperor Yuan did not say anything, he just wanted to embarrass them a little...
"By the way, General, your eldest grandson hasn't gotten engaged yet, right?" Emperor Yuan suddenly asked.
"Yes." Although the old general didn't know what the emperor was planning, he couldn't deceive the emperor.
"These past few days, my precious princess has been talking to me about your grandson's new champion, acting like a little girl. I think she has taken a fancy to him, so I am going to grant him a marriage." Emperor Yuan looked down at them from above, his eyes seemed to say, "Take up the gift I gave you."
"Your Majesty, I am just a disabled person, not worthy of the princess. Now I am just living in this world, and I must not let the princess be laughed at for the rest of her life." Su Jinyu sat in a wheelchair, looking out of place.
"It's your blessing that this princess likes you, and you're still being picky." Xiao Qing'er said bluntly
At this moment, even the air inside was tense.
A voice came, "Royal brother, have you forgotten that the number one scholar's leg is related to the Seventh Princess? The Seventh Princess was even exiled to the imperial mausoleum, and she just came back, didn't she? Royal brother is so busy that he may have forgotten that if these two were to get married, they would be lovers of hatred."
Prince Yong always knows where to poke Emperor Yuan in the heart
"This... Was I really so busy that I forgot, or was it Prince Yong who reminded me?" Emperor Yuan was speechless for a long time.
"It doesn't matter. I think both Su Er and Su San are good." The Seventh Princess seemed to have made up her mind to go to the General's Mansion.
Just as the old lady was about to knock her cane to refuse, a notice came from outside: "The Supervisor of the East Factory has arrived~"
The superior obviously frowned. Normally, he would never come to any banquet. Could something happen today?
"Your Majesty, I have seen you." He did not kneel down, but only bowed his hands. This was the rule set by the previous emperor.
"How dare you? Why don't you kneel?" After Xiao Qing'er finished speaking, the Crown Prince and the Fifth Prince couldn't help but chuckle, watching the show.
"The Seventh Princess probably hasn't even learned the rules. Now that she has returned from the imperial mausoleum, is she going to enjoy herself? She doesn't seem to have learned her mistakes and corrected them. As a princess of the royal family, it is not your responsibility to choose any good man from the imperial court. Marrying a foreign prince is your way out and responsibility as a princess."
"Since you enjoy a high status that ordinary people don't have, you must take on the responsibilities of a princess. Your Majesty, don't you think so?" Gu Xiao smiled and looked at Emperor Yuan and asked
"Qing'er, get out of here. You are making trouble. Take her away and put her under house arrest. She will be released after she learns the rules." Emperor Yuan did not answer Gu Xiao, but reprimanded Xiao Qing'er and asked the imperial concubine to take her away first.
"It's really unruly. I won't kneel before the emperor. That was the rule set by the late emperor." Gu Xiao's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, floating into the ears of the silent crowd.
"Hey, old general and old lady, what's going on? Are you standing in the corner as punishment for doing something wrong? Why are you bringing your whole family with you?" Gu Xiao asked in confusion.
"Oh, look at me. I was so angry at Qing'er that I forgot that everyone in the general's mansion is still standing. Please take a seat quickly." Emperor Yuan is indeed a drama queen.
Gu Xiao also took a seat, but he was originally very tired of this kind of occasion. It was just that someone told him that the General's Mansion might be in trouble today, so he came here for the good ministers, after all, he still owed some warm wine...
"I believe that Marshal Su is here in the northwest, and he will definitely keep us safe. Come, pour some wine, and let's drink together today." Emperor Yuan gave a reward as soon as he spoke, and asked the queen, who had not appeared for a long time, to pour wine for the general and the old lady.
"I thank the Queen" the old general joined hands to thank
"I also respect the old general, the old lady and everyone in the Su Mansion," the queen said as if she was recalling something.
Shi Shiran smiled and went back to sit beside Emperor Yuan. Everyone raised their glasses and drank together.
About a quarter of an hour later, the old lady suddenly vomited blood, which frightened everyone in the general's mansion. Xiao Jue stood up, thought about it, and sat down again. Emperor Yuan was watching, so he couldn't go over now.
"Move aside and let me have a look." Gu Xiao then took out a pill. Su Jinxiu grabbed it and asked, "What is this?" He said nothing.
"I asked you what this is?" Su Jinxiu's eyes were red.
"This detoxifying pill can detoxify most poisons. Take it first. It has no side effects on the body. It can detoxify poisonous substances and nourish the body without poisoning." Gu Xiao said to Su Jinxiu with a smile
After the old lady took the detoxifying pill, Emperor Yuan took a look and immediately called the imperial physician, who diagnosed her with poisoning.
"It's not just any poison, it's a poison called Qianjiyin, which takes effect very quickly and is extremely toxic. If the old lady hadn't taken the antidote first, she would have died from the poison given her condition... Now she has to take the antidote quickly, otherwise her body will be damaged..."
The doctor replied tremblingly
When everyone in the General's Mansion heard what the imperial physician said, they were extremely angry.
"Your Majesty, please investigate thoroughly!" Everyone in the General's Mansion knelt heavily on the ground, saying just five words in unison, and their voices were terrifying.
"How dare you! Someone come and investigate for me. I want to see who dares to be so vicious." Emperor Yuan spoke, and someone responded.
But this time, the one who answered the question unexpectedly was Gu Xiao.
"Your Majesty, I will investigate now and will give an explanation to the General's Mansion and bring that person to justice."
Emperor Yuan was blocked from retreating, and now the northwest still had to rely on the General's Mansion, so he could only agree.
"Take the old lady to the side hall for treatment..."
"Your Majesty, please allow me to take my grandmother back to the palace for treatment." Su Jinyu did not trust the imperial physician in the palace.
"The best doctors in the world are all here, why do you want to go back to the General's Mansion?" Emperor Yuan was puzzled.
"We can't find the antidote here for a while, please allow us to do so, Your Majesty." The old general also pleaded for mercy.
"Forget it, then send two imperial doctors to follow."
A palace banquet ended in this way, and Gu Xiao began to check everything.
The people from the General's Mansion left Su Luobai behind to accompany them in the investigation.
Before leaving, Su Jinxiu looked at Gu Xiao, said "please" and left.
On the way, Wenjiu suddenly felt a tight pain in her chest, so painful that she had to stop and rest. Soon her whole body was soaked.
"Master, what's wrong?" Xuan Ying immediately noticed something was wrong.
"I have a feeling that something must have happened in the capital. My chest hurts so badly." Wen Jiu did not hide anything.
Qinglong stepped forward to check his pulse, but found no injuries on his body. "Sir, you are overthinking, so just relax."
Xuan Ying sent a message to Qing Li without anyone noticing.
At the same time, in the general's mansion, Su Jinyu hurriedly asked Su Jinxiu to invite Master Qingli. He still trusted Miss Qingli more in medical skills.
