Mrs. Zeng smiled coldly: "That idiot Zeng Qian, he wants to abandon me and my two children to live together with you, and he doesn't even want to see if I agree or not!"
"You're right, how could someone like Zeng Qian, who is greedy for life and afraid of death, take the initiative to go to the front line?" Mrs. Zeng said with a smile, "But I didn't force him to go, I just broke his limbs , people threw him on the battlefield."
"A man like him, who doesn't know the five grains and does not work hard, can't survive a quarter of an hour on the battlefield."
Mrs. Zeng spoke slowly, she stared at Wanniang with murderous intent, even the thin lines at the corners of her eyes were full of murderous intent.
Wanniang was blocked in the yard by so many people, and in front of her was the murderous Mrs. Zeng. Her chaotic brain cleared up at this moment, and she realized her stupidity.
She hugged her belly tightly, gritted her teeth and said, "You can't kill me! I'm a Liangji! If you kill me, even if you are the prince, you still have to..."
"Of course I won't be so stupid as to kill you." Mrs. Zeng waved her hand, "It's just that your mouth is too redundant."
After she finished speaking, her voice became fierce: "Bi Hua, bring the medicine!"
Several people immediately caught Wanniang, but she struggled to break free but still couldn't move, she could only watch helplessly as Mrs. Zeng brought the medicine in front of her.
She desperately wanted to turn her head, but Madam Zeng pinched her chin fiercely.
"Don't be afraid, this is just a bowl of poison." Mrs. Zeng said softly, "You have to take the antidote every other year. If there is no antidote, your whole body will fester and die."
While speaking, Mrs. Zeng picked up another bowl of dark medicine: "This bowl is an abortion medicine. Although I hated and poisoned Zeng Qian, and even killed him with my own hands, I still can't accept that nothing but my two children Besides, Zeng Qian can have other bloodlines in this world."
"It's still small and hasn't formed yet. It won't be too painful for you to take this bowl of abortion medicine." Mrs. Zeng said, and then she poured this bowl of medicine down for Wanniang, and there was another bowl of black lacquer. The poison was also fed into Wanniang's mouth.
Wanniang couldn't resist at all. After she drank these two bowls of medicine, she only felt pain in her lower abdomen. She clutched her lower abdomen in pain and rolled on the ground in pain.
But Mrs. Zeng still didn't care, and just said something softly: "Don't worry, I have invited the best doctor in Cangzhou, and I will definitely not put your life in danger."
After saying this, Wanniang was taken to the backyard under her instructions.
The shrill scream of a female voice in the backyard made one's scalp tingle, and Mrs. Zeng didn't even bat an eyelid: "Take care of her, and never let her leave Zeng Zhai until the emperor's reward comes down!"
"Yes!" Bihua knew the seriousness of the matter, and immediately responded, "The slaves have already been surrounded outside the courtyard, and if she makes any movement inside, someone will report."
Mrs. Zeng played with her long nails. Looking at the blue sky above her head, she felt that the haze in her heart had also dissipated with the dark clouds.
At this time, she was in a very happy mood, especially after seeing Gu Ning.
"County Lord!" Mrs. Zeng walked to Gu Ning with a smile on her face. She was all her people in Zeng's house, so she didn't need to hide her good mood.
Seeing her radiant appearance, Gu Ning reminded: "Mrs. Zeng still needs to put on some disguise when she goes out, otherwise, you don't look like your husband died, but rather like you just picked up money."
Hearing this, Madam Zeng touched her cheek, a little apprehensive: "Is it really so obvious?"
Gu Ning nodded: "Although there are all your people in the mansion, but Zeng Zhizhou just died for Cangzhou, you still have to pretend to be haggard. It is best not to eat too much until the day of the face. If you are full, it is best to go to see the emperor with a haggard and thin face."
"The county magistrate is right." Mrs. Zeng nodded quickly, keeping Gu Ning's words firmly in her heart.
If it weren't for Gu Ning, she would never have thought of such a good way to get rid of Zeng Zhizhou. Now she looks at Gu Ning as if she is looking at a big Buddha that can fulfill all her wishes.
Thinking of Pei Anlin's words just now, she said gratefully: "Thank you county magistrate for planning for me, otherwise, the marriage of the two children would be enough to make me exhausted from worrying."
"I have done everything I promised you, don't forget what you promised me." Gu Ning reminded, "This Cangzhou Zhizhou..."
"Don't worry." Mrs. Zeng said hastily, "I have already sent a letter to the capital, and my father will definitely help me. Presumably in a few days, the imperial decree of appointment will come down."
Zeng Zhizhou is dead, so it is natural to change Cangzhou Tongju to be the Zhizhou nearby.
And Cangzhou Tongjuan is from the Pei family.
Thinking of Gu Ning's step-by-step plan, Mrs. Zeng's heart trembled. She had already made up her mind that she would never provoke the Pei family in the future, otherwise, she would not know how she died.
……
The news of Zeng Zhizhou's sacrifice at the front spread quickly to the capital.
Most of the soldiers present praised Zeng Zhizhou's bravery and fearlessness. In addition, Zeng Zhizhou's daily gifts were very pleasing to the emperor, so the emperor gave him the title of Uncle Zhongyong.
Zeng Zhizhou died, and the title was inherited by Zeng Zhizhou's only son.
However, there was a vacancy in Cangzhou, and no one in the court wanted to go to Cangzhou to serve as the magistrate, and those small officials, who were eager to be released on weekdays, would all shrink back now.
They are all people with seniors, seniors and juniors. A place like Cangzhou, which is too close to the land of Shu, cannot guarantee that it will not be the next Guanzhou. The former governor of Guanzhou was hanged on the city wall for three days!
No one wants to end up like this, even if Cangzhou Zhizhou is a fat job.
In the end, the gray-haired Lord Tang said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, why don't you let the Cangzhou General Judge act as the magistrate temporarily, and discuss who will be in charge later.
The emperor knew that even if there was further discussion, this group of people who were greedy for life and fear of death would not be willing to go to Cangzhou to serve as the magistrate. This Cangzhou general judgment is likely to become the only official with multiple positions since the founding of the Chu State.
He just wanted to throw away the hot potato of Cangzhou Zhizhou. After carefully reading the life of Cangzhou Tongpan and finding that he had no involvement with other aristocratic families, he nodded in relief.
"Just do as you say."
When the emperor gave an order, no one dared to stop it, and no one wanted to stop it.
The appointment was sent to Cangzhou smoothly.
And in the East Palace, Gu Qingqiu, who had been following the court's movements, also learned about it after he came down to court.
Her face turned blue and purple, and the people around thought that Zeng Zhizhou was brave and fearless and died on the front line, but she knew that Zeng Zhizhou was greedy for life and afraid of death, so he would never take the initiative to go to the front line.
"Where's Gu Ning?" Gu Qingqiu squeezed Mr. Zhuang's hand firmly, "Is she dead?"
Mr. Zhuang's expression was complicated, and he said in a low voice: "Crown Princess, don't waste your time on this. The Changning County Lord has so many guards from the Pei family to protect her. Even if you rack your brains, you can't hurt her."
"That means she's not dead..." Gu Qingqiu murmured, "Gu Qingqiu is still alive, but Zeng Qian who wanted to kill her is dead!"
Gu Qingqiu almost gritted his teeth: "Zeng Qian's death has nothing to do with Gu Ning! Gu Ning must have killed him!"
With that said, she was about to go out in a hurry.
Mr. Zhuang stopped her impatiently: "Even if the princess is sure that Changning County Lord killed Zeng Zhizhou? Do you have evidence? Do you want to go to the emperor and say that you first sent Zeng Zhizhou to kill Changning County?" Lord, did this lead to the death of Zeng Zhizhou?"
Gu Qingqiu stopped in her tracks, her face was extremely ugly in the night.
"I..." Gu Qingqiu bit her lower lip firmly, the rusty taste and pain in her mouth woke her up: "You're right, I really have no evidence."
"But do I want to admit this dumb fault?" Gu Qingqiu's eyes were red, and he no longer had a cold temperament, "Do I want to watch Gu Ning pull my people up one by one?"
"Also!" She said coldly, "There must be something wrong with the general sentence who was elected as the magistrate of Cangzhou! He must be from the Pei family!"
Seeing Mr. Zhuang's displeasure, obviously disapproving of her words, Gu Qingqiu still insisted on his own opinion: "Mr. Zhuang, don't you still know the way the Pei family behaves? Since they killed Zeng Qian, what else can they do?" How could Zeng Qian's position be taken advantage of by others? And I know Gu Ning, when she killed Zeng Qian, she must have thought of letting people from the Pei family replace Zeng Qian!"
Gu Qingqiu is sure that there will be no one in this world who understands Gu Ning better than himself!
Seeing that Mr. Zhuang's complexion gradually became ugly, Gu Qingqiu sneered and said, "Mr. Zhuang might as well think about it carefully. After you think it through clearly, it won't be too late to come to me again."
After all, she never looked at Mr. Zhuang again, and left the East Palace with Ban Xia.
Seeing her going away, Mr. Zhuang frowned and sighed secretly.
He knew that Gu Qingqiu must have gone looking for that man again.
This time, the house arranged for Yuntian was even more hidden. On the busy street, no one noticed a figure entering the alley.
The back door was opened, and Gu Qingqiu squeezed his body through the door. She walked quickly to the inner courtyard. Along the way, she had already adjusted her mentality, and polished the manuscript so that there was no mistake.
"Mr. Yun!" Gu Qingqiu yelled anxiously as he walked, "I just got the news that the Wuxiang Ginseng disappeared long ago!"
Originally, Yun Tian, who had closed his eyes in the courtyard and did not want to see Gu Qingqiu at all, quickly appeared in front of Gu Qingqiu after hearing these words.
Although his thin and pale face was handsome, there was a gloomy look about it.
"What does it mean to be stolen?" He said sullenly, his hands already tightening Gu Qingqiu's neck.
Feeling suffocated, Gu Qingqiu didn't want to try again, she quickly said: "It was taken away by someone! I know who that person is!"
Hearing this, Yun Tian withdrew his hand.
Gu Qingqiu covered his neck, and took a few steps back, feeling quite fortunate that he survived the catastrophe.
"You're right, how could someone like Zeng Qian, who is greedy for life and afraid of death, take the initiative to go to the front line?" Mrs. Zeng said with a smile, "But I didn't force him to go, I just broke his limbs , people threw him on the battlefield."
