Being a cannon fodder female supporting role is not as good as marrying a lucky villain

The emperor may be dying.

As soon as he thought of this possibility, Jiang Taifu's breath became short of breath.

He clasped his hands tightly, and after calming down a little, his face became calm again.

"Master Jiang is here!"

As the servant outside the door shouted loudly, the eyes of the ministers in the hall changed, and they all looked at Jiang Taifu in unison.

The emperor is critically ill. Among the grown-up princes, only the eldest prince, the second prince, and the third prince are able to compete. With the help of the Jiang family, once the emperor dies, the successor is almost predictable.

Once thinking of this possibility, Song Xiyi, the head of the Ministry of Household Affairs, looked very ugly - his daughter is the second prince's biological mother Song Guifei.

"Master Jiang!"

"Song Shangshu."

Jiang Taifu nodded slightly to Song Shangshu in a lukewarm manner, with a rather high posture.

Seeing his appearance, Song Shangshu's eyes were dimmed, but he still got out of the way.

In the dormitory, the concubine's cries could be vaguely heard, and even though there was a strong smell of medicine in this dormitory, one could still smell that sticky aura.

Jiang Taifu's temples twitched violently, and he faintly sensed something from it, his eyes looked towards the bed.

Li Dehai took a step forward indiscriminately, blocking Jiang Taifu's sight.

"Your Majesty..." Jiang Taifu gritted his teeth and said word by word, "But you have summoned a concubine?"

"It's the newly-canonized Beauty Xu." Li Dehai said with difficulty, "The emperor has loved her a lot recently, and he has taken a lot of elixir refined by Chen Daochang. They were all good before, but today..."

It's that monster again!

Jiang Taifu's face was extremely ugly, and he said sharply: "I have told you thousands of times that you must never give the emperor the medicine that Yaodao gave!"

Li Dehai hurriedly knelt down: "Master Jiang, I really can't stop this old slave! Besides, every time the emperor takes the poison, he will have people test the poison, and there has never been a mistake! This... the emperor's coma may not be caused by the pill."

"That demon way bewitched the king's heart, and gave the emperor an elixir of unknown origin to take, and even you were coaxed by him!" Jiang Taifu scolded sharply, "immediately bring him up, and I will interrogate him personally. Pry out the whereabouts of the antidote from your mouth!"

Several ministers on the side looked at Jiang Taifu in surprise.

"This is not good. Although Daoist Chen is suspected, he is the emperor's conferred national teacher after all. If he is moved, once the emperor wakes up, I'm afraid..."

"The life of the emperor is very important, as long as you pry out the whereabouts of the antidote from the mouth of that monster, and when the emperor wakes up, he will definitely not blame us!"

However, Jiang Taifu stood in front of the emperor's bed, his face did not change, and he didn't pay attention to them at all.

Li Dehai's expression changed drastically, but Jiang Taifu was staring at him, he didn't dare to disobey, so he could only send someone to invite Daoist Chen.

When no one noticed, Taifu Jiang glanced at the imperial physicians kneeling on the ground, one of the imperial physicians raised his head imperceptibly, looked at him for a moment, and then looked away.

Xiao Yuan was leading the palace people into the palace in a hurry, and personally carrying a bowl of freshly brewed medicine, he staggered towards the unconscious emperor.

Li Dehai took the decoction, carefully let the servants around him test the poison, and then took it to the emperor's mouth.

However, after taking this bowl of decoction, the emperor's complexion did not improve, and even showed a faint blue color.

Seeing this, Xiao Yuan was slapping his thigh anxiously, and said to the imperial physician who was kneeling on the ground: "Emperor Jiang, hurry up and give the acupuncture to help the emperor's blood flow!"

The doctor Jiang, who was kneeling on the ground, nodded quickly, and walked to the bed with the medicine box in his arms. He carefully took out the golden needle, and when he was about to poke the emperor, he was suddenly caught by a pair of hands.

"Wait a minute."

"Pei Anlin! How can you enter the palace!" Jiang Taifu's face changed drastically, and he yelled, waking up those dazed ministers.

Fang Shangshu resolutely shouted coldly: "Where is the forbidden army? Haven't taken him down yet! As a general, he entered the palace when the emperor was seriously ill, and he clearly had something wrong in his heart!"

However, the guards outside the door did not move at all.

"Pei Anlin! Are you going to rebel!"

Jiang Taifu's expression turned ugly in an instant, and he stopped in front of Pei Anlin. He was much thinner than Pei Anlin, but he was full of confidence when he faced Pei Anlin.

After his words fell, Pei Anlin sneered, and his tone was quite sarcastic: "Could it be that Jiang Taifu wanted to rebel, so everyone seemed to be rebellious? I followed the emperor's order and specially led the forbidden army to guard emperor!"

As soon as these words came out, the nerves under Jiang Taifu's old face suddenly tensed up.

"What do you mean by that?"

Pei Anlin ignored him, and only shouted loudly: "Xiao Yuanzheng, I have to trouble you!"

Xiao Yuanzheng who was shouted was stunned: "What is General Pei going to do?"

"Look at those golden needles of Imperial Physician Jiang." Pei Anlin sneered, "I got the news that Imperial Physician Jiang intends to murder the emperor! His golden needles were smeared with the essence-eating herb that sees blood and seals the throat!"

Physician Jiang trembled, and the golden needle in his hand stabbed at the emperor in a daze, but Pei Anlin had been prepared for a long time, and knocked him back two feet with one palm, and fell heavily on the cold floor superior.

This change caused a big change in everyone's expression.

Jiang Taifu was the first to speak out: "We haven't taken him down yet!"

After saying that, someone rushed out behind him, the sword in his hand glowed coldly, and went straight to Doctor Jiang.

There was a clear "bang", and the imperial army who suddenly appeared was stopped by Pei Anlin, and the sword in his hand was broken in two.

Pei Anlin sneered coldly: "Teacher Jiang doesn't need to rush to kill people, Taifu Jiang is just a low-rank official, how could he have the guts to assassinate the emperor? Someone behind him must be behind him, why don't you take Taifu Jiang down for interrogation!"

When he spoke, his eyes were always on Jiang Taifu, and anyone with a discerning eye could see where he was pointing.

Jiang Taifu has a grandson who is the third prince, and he is most likely to instruct Jiang Taifu.

With such words, Jiang Taifu instantly became the target of everyone's criticism, especially Song Shangshu. He immediately said loudly: "Yes! Why should Jiang Taifu be impatient? Assassinating the emperor is no small matter, it is not a child's play!"

Jiang Taifu is very scheming, so naturally he won't lose his composure because of this disturbance.

He stroked his gray beard and calmly dealt with the turmoil: "This old man is just to punish those who have misbehavior for the emperor. Since General Pei wants to take over this hard work, just take it."

From his expression, no one can see the clue.

Pei Anlin glanced at him inexplicably, raised his hand, and someone turned Taiji Jiang away.

But before he got out of the main hall, Doctor Jiang's body stiffened and fell to the ground, completely out of breath.

"Good trick..." Pei Anlin pointed out, "Now that Doctor Jiang is dead, who would know the mastermind behind him?"

Song Shangshu took advantage of the situation and said: "There are not many people in the court who can make Jiang Taiji so afraid. This person has sinister intentions! General Pei must not let this person go!"

"Naturally." Pei Anlin nodded, and his gaze passed Jiang Taifu again, anyone could see his suspicion.

Song Shangshu secretly rejoiced in his heart, that little thought was clearly revealed.

However, Jiang Taifu was angry in his heart, and he would not show it at this time. He still kept his calm attitude, as if the person the two of them were alluding to had nothing to do with him.

As a result, the atmosphere in the hall became tense.

At the same time, the atmosphere in Beiduhufu, thousands of miles away, was particularly tense.

"Old Cai, I heard that Mr. Mei from the south of the Yangtze River has a good relationship with you." Fang Chenghai smiled familiarly, "Then do you know what Mr. Mei has been doing in the forum recently?"

Before General Cai could speak, Fang Chenghai shook his head self-consciously and sighed: "I saw that Mr. Mei San is a good-looking talent, but I didn't expect that he was also secretly involved in the smuggling like other traders. The person who has the most contact with him Rong Zhi has already recruited, even if I want to save face for you, I have to..."

Behind Fang Chenghai, the densely packed soldiers remained silent, but the sharp knives in their hands had already been unsheathed.

General Cai's expression was ugly, he threw the teacup on the ground, and said in a vicious voice, "Are you threatening me? Fang Chenghai, do you think you can show off your strength to me by bringing these people here?"

"I dare not." Fang Chenghai quickly waved his hand, "But Mr. Mei has been in close contact with Rong Zhi, and now that Rong Zhi is suspected of smuggling, I naturally have to take Mr. Mei for interrogation, otherwise it will be hard to convince everyone!"

He had a very harmless smile on his face.

General Cai looked at him fixedly, and after a while, he suddenly showed a sarcasm smile: "Fang Chenghai, we smart people don't talk dark words, what exactly do you want to do?"

"I'm also one of the generals in charge of Beidu Protectorate, so I can't just watch them smuggle..."

"The Mei family has thousands of acres of tea gardens, and this amount can be vacated every year." General Cai stretched out his hands, shaking ten fingers in front of Fang Chenghai.

In an instant, Fang Chenghai's breathing slowed down.

He took a deep breath, even though his expression was calm, he still couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes.

From the screen behind General Cai, a tall and straight figure slowly walked out: "Maybe the one hundred thousand catties of tea per year will satisfy General Fang?"

Fang Chenghai looked at Xie Yan who appeared suddenly, his breath was stagnant, and he subconsciously looked around.

However, there are his people all around, and there is no abnormality.

As a result, Fang Chenghai's heart fell to the ground, and the smile on his face was a bit real: "Mr. Mei can really produce a hundred thousand catties of tea?"

"Our Mei family has a full [-] mu of tea garden. Even if I don't pay much attention to my father, I can get [-] mu of tea garden. Can't this thousand mu of tea garden produce [-] jin of tea?"

Xie Yan raised his chin with a haughty expression, not paying attention to Fang Chenghai.

"Okay! In this way, the money we benefit from it... is hundreds of thousands!"

Fang Chenghai was immersed in joy and nodded repeatedly, thus ignoring the strange look in the eyes of the two opposite people.
