Mrs. Liu didn't know what Jin Gu was thinking. In fact, she was in the most pain. She didn't want to give up the child she risked her life to give birth to, let alone the honor that should have been given to her twice.
For a long time, Mrs. Liu stared at Po Li Wen and said, "Based on your guess, how long can my child live?"
Li Wenpo said hesitantly: "To tell you the truth, although my little brother is born with deficiencies and is very likely to die young, he has a distinguished status. If he gets precious medicinal materials to replenish his body, such as ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, etc., he may be able to live a few more days. Specifically,
How long, I really can’t say, slave."
As soon as she finished speaking, Jin Gu scolded: "You are such a stable mother-in-law, you don't have a word of truth. How can I eat ginseng and Ganoderma at such a young age?"
Li Wenpo hurriedly apologized for herself, "How dare you, this slave, lie to a noble man? Although my little brother can't eat these things, he can let the wet nurse eat them. In this way, the wet nurse's milk will have medicinal properties. In addition, if it is ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum, it can
If you prepare it as a medicine, the effect should be better."
Mrs. Liu nodded slightly and signaled to Jin Gu to hold the child. Then she looked at Po Li Wen meaningfully and said, "Do you still remember what I told you?"
Li Wenpo is also a well-behaved person. When she heard this, she immediately felt sorry and said quickly: "My lord, don't worry, I have a very strict mouth. I will definitely keep this matter in my belly and never say a word."
A faint fierce light flashed across Ms. Liu's eyes, and she nodded and said: "Keep this sentence in mind. If I hear even a few rumors, I won't let you go. But don't think that there's nothing I can do if you go outside the palace."
Not for you."
Li Wenpo knelt down in fear and said: "I will never dare!"
"It's okay if you don't dare." After saying this, Mrs. Liu said to Haitang: "Go get twenty taels of gold and give it to her. In addition, I will reward her with the Ruyi that I usually use to sleep on."
Jin Gu's lips twitched, as if she wanted to speak, but in the end she said nothing and watched Haitang fetch the gold.
When Li Wenpo took over the heavy gold and Ruyi, she couldn't hide the joy on her face. She had never seen so much gold in her life. They said that even the bricks paving the floor of the royal family were made of gold. It was indeed not bad.
When Li Wenpo thanked her and was about to go out, Ms. Liu stopped her and said, "You have done me a big favor today. I will reward you with another glass of wine. You can finish it before leaving."
Li Wenpo was a little frightened and a little proud when she heard this, "The noble is so polite, how can this servant bear it? Besides, I don't know how to drink. If I get drunk for a thousand days, I will make a fool of myself in front of the noble."
"You deserve this." Mrs. Liu's face was filled with a charming smile, "As for Qianri Zui, it's just a name, it can't be taken seriously. Just drink with confidence, I guarantee you won't be guilty of any crime
I mean." After saying this, he turned around and said, "Haitang, why don't you go and get drunk for a thousand days?"
"Yes." Haitang's answer was a little hesitant, but he didn't ask any more questions and quickly took a glass of wine that exuded a strong aroma.
After Li Wenpo took it, she smelled it and whispered: "My lord, are you really not drunk with this wine? Why does this slave smell better than any other wine outside?"
Mrs. Liu said in a friendly manner: "You also said it was from outside. How can the royal wine in the palace be comparable to the poor wines outside? Not only will it not be intoxicating, it will also feel mellow and sweet in the mouth, without any hint of choking."
"Is this really true?" Li Wenpo couldn't believe it, but she still didn't drink the wine.
Mrs. Liu's expression became gentler and she said softly: "Am I still going to lie to you? Just try it with a small sip. If you really feel it's choking, just don't drink it."
"Yes." Seeing that Li Wenpo couldn't refuse, she had to pick up the wine glass and take a small sip. As expected, there was no hint of choking after the sip, and it was extremely sweet and delicious. She drank the whole glass of wine without realizing it.
After drinking it all, I still felt a little unfinished.
When handing the empty cup to Haitang, Li Wenpo said flatteringly: "Your Majesty is right, I have never drunk such delicious wine."
Mrs. Liu nodded slightly, "Okay, it's getting late. You should go back quickly and put away the gold so that no one can see it."
After Li Wenpo went out with her gratitude, Haitang finally asked the question she had been holding back for a long time, "Master, why did you let her drink that thousand-day drunkenness? This wine is sweet and delicious at first, and it will not make people even a little drunk.
But once the energy gets high, even a good drinker will have to get drunk all day long, let alone someone like Li Wenpo who doesn't know how to drink."
Mrs. Liu smiled and said nothing, but Jin Gu scolded: "Master has his own way of doing things. What are you asking, a servant?"
"It doesn't matter." Mrs. Liu waved her hand to stop Jin Gu from scolding her, and said to Haitang: "Do you really believe that she will keep this secret?"
Haitang didn't understand the meaning of her question for a moment, and after a while she said truthfully: "Since she promised the master and received so many benefits from him, she should keep her promise."
Ms. Liu glanced at her, then asked Xiang Jingu, "What about you, do you believe in such a young woman from the market?"
Jin Gu thought about it for a while and said: "I'm sorry to say this, this kind of person likes gossiping the most. She has the honor to deliver the master's two elder brothers, and she has received so many rewards. She will regard this as her glory and glory, and she will tell everyone about it everywhere."
Come on. She may not dare to mention her little brother’s matter, but I guarantee that she won’t.
He will definitely let it slip, and the people have always been interested in royal affairs. If they spread it to ten or hundreds of people, I am afraid it will spread all over the city. The most terrifying thing is that once these words are spread into the imperial city, the emperor will
Knowing that the master deliberately concealed my little brother’s condition would be extremely detrimental to the master.”
Mrs. Liu glanced at Jin Gu approvingly and asked again: "Then let me ask you, what kind of person can keep a secret forever and never leak it?"
Her words made Jin Gu look strange. She vaguely guessed something, and said with a slight trembling: "It's a dead person."
"Yes, he is a dead person!" Mrs. Liu clapped her hands and said with great indifference: "Because of this, the steady woman named Li must not live in this world. She has been drunk for a thousand days. According to estimates, she should be dead when she comes out.
After the garden, she had an alcoholic attack. It was freezing outside at this time, and she was alone. Once she got drunk and lay in the ice and snow for two or three days, do you think she would be dead or alive?"
Mrs. Liu's words not only solved the doubts in Jin Gu and Haitang's minds, but also horrified them. They never expected that Mrs. Liu would have murderous intentions early and quietly lay such an invisible trap for Li Wen.
I'm afraid Li Wen's mother-in-law will not know who harmed her until she dies.
Mrs. Liu took the child from Jin Gu's arms, hugged her gently, and said casually: "Why are all of them silent? Do you think I'm cruel?"
Her words made Haitang jump up, and then she quickly lowered her head and said, "I don't dare!"
