Jiu Zhang Ji: The Daily Life of the Reborn Daughter

Chapter 163: Can Dayan have a female emperor?

Children's diarrhea mushroom?

Qiao Lili looked at Yu Jingyan. Neither of them had ever heard of him. The group of people waited quietly for Feng Wuzui to finish writing the prescription and answer their questions.

"You all know poisonous mushrooms, right? They can kill people if you eat them." Feng Wuzui wrote the prescription and handed it to the hospital doctor, asking him to get the medicine and boil it for the children to drink. The diarrhea will basically stop by tomorrow morning. "The difference is that this kind of mushroom can make children have diarrhea."

"But I didn't find any mushrooms in the food," said Yunwu.

"Don't eat this kind of mushroom. When it matures, an invisible poison will float out. Children who are around it and breathe in the poison in the air will have diarrhea. You know, diarrhea is also fatal, especially for children." (What I want to say is that the flying spores are poisonous. The ancients probably didn't understand. Haha, I'll just use poison to express it. Don't mind it.)

"How come there are mushrooms like this in the Salesian's Home?" Yunwu asked, and suddenly thought of something else, "Now is not the season for mushrooms to grow. The weather is cold and the leaves are about to fall."

"Mushrooms grew in the lungs of those three children." When Feng Wuzui said this, everyone felt horrified.

"Fortunately, there is only one previously planted mushroom in their lungs, so I can still treat it. If the second generation of mushroom grows in their lungs, even I will be powerless." After Feng Wuzui finished speaking, he began to write prescriptions for the three children.

Everyone smelled a conspiracy.

Who would want to harm a group of orphans in an orphanage? There is no grudge or interest involved. However, if all the children in the orphanage died, it would be Qiao Lili's responsibility. Qiao Lili is Yu Jingyan's princess, so Yu Jingyan will definitely be affected.

He would lose the emperor's favor, and leave an impression of brutality in the hearts of the people that would be difficult to change. What was he after? The 168 loads of gowns were the bride price stipulated by the Crown Princess.

Yu Jingyan got angry when he said this. One hundred and twenty-eight loads of dowry turned into one hundred and sixty-eight loads. There was nothing extra except forty empty boxes, but it caused such a big trouble. Whoever caused the trouble should be responsible for dealing with it.

When people heard that Qiao Lili was being betrothed to the Crown Princess, they couldn't sit still.

"A-Li, don't worry about this. Just treat the three children so that they don't affect others and send them to the emperor. You are just looking for trouble." Yu Jingyan said angrily. He wanted to change the lock of his mother's palace door to a big one, so that no one could get in.

"We also need to check if the neighbors' children have been infected. We also need to check the pulses of the adults in our courtyard, as adults are not completely immune." After Feng Wuzui finished writing the prescription, he stood up and went to check on the houses around him. The younger the child and the longer the diarrhea lasts, the greater the damage to the child's body.

"Uncle Feng, don't worry. Our orphanage has bought all the houses in Centipede Hutong. We are going to expand the orphanage in the future. So, there are no nearby neighbors and no children. The nearest one is a thousand feet away." These houses were acquired just before the orphanage was unveiled, and it was all thanks to Concubine Youyun's face.

Now that I think about it, I really avoided a big trouble. If the children in the neighboring families were all sick, the rumors that spread would have been a terrible and ominous disaster.

"It doesn't need to be a thousand feet, three hundred feet away will be basically fine. This poison is afraid of sunlight. It will die if exposed to the sun for a while. It is even more afraid of wind. Once the wind blows, it will scatter and attach to other dry objects, and it will not be able to fly. So let the children get more sun." Since there were no other children, Feng Wuzui began to take the pulses of the remaining adults.

There really was someone who fell into the trap. She was Zhou Chengye's wife. In addition to taking care of Xiao Shiyi, she also had to take care of two other kids of similar age. The orphanage gave her a monthly salary, and it was quite hard to take care of three children at the same time. In addition, the children were all sick, so she became irritated and couldn't eat. Her body's positive energy declined, and she was invaded by evil spirits.

In the afternoon, she had symptoms of diarrhea, but the condition was not as serious as her children. She was fully focused on her three children. Later, she learned that her ten older children were also sick, and she had no time to take care of herself.

The prescription for adults is slightly different from that for children. Doctor Feng adjusted the prescription and asked Zhou Chengye to boil the medicine. "You two also had close contact with those three children?" Feng Wuzui asked Qiao Lili and Yu Jingyan.

"Yes, but not for long." Qiao Lili said after thinking for a while.

"Hey, you are also at risk." Feng Wuzui pointed at Qiao Lili and said, "Your body has not yet fully grown. Strictly speaking, you are still a child." He was about to leave, but he sat down and wrote a prescription.

"This is a preventive medicine. Everyone without symptoms should drink one bowl." Then he pointed at Qiao Lili and said, "Drink it once in the morning and once in the evening for three days."

Yu Jingyan became even angrier. He was the unlucky father who could only cause trouble and forced A-Li to drink medicine. If it ended there, it would be fine. But if A-Li also fell into the trap, he would take his mother back to Yunmeng Lake and let him stay here alone and love his good sons forever.

At this time, in the imperial study in the inner courtyard of the palace, Ying San knelt in front of Emperor Yong'an and reported everything to the emperor.

Emperor Yong'an had a gloomy face and was on the verge of a rage. He strode quickly on the ground for a few times, but unable to suppress his surging anger, he grabbed an inkstone at hand and threw it to the ground.

Eunuch Li shrank back in fear and immediately knelt on the ground, shouting, "Your Majesty, please calm down. Your Majesty, please calm down."

Since ascending the throne, the emperor has always been frugal. In recent years, first the war and then the natural disasters have exhausted the national treasury. He has reduced his own food, clothing and other expenses to the minimum. The money he spends on himself in a year is not even as much as that of ordinary wealthy merchants. He takes good care of every thing he uses. He will not throw things unless he is extremely angry.

After smashing the inkstone, Emperor Yong'an felt distressed. He had used this inkstone for more than ten years. He turned his head and glanced at the other black and red inkstone, which was given to him by Fei'er when he said he was going to participate in the Spring Examination. "Little Li, you didn't persuade me. Fortunately, that inkstone is far away."

Eunuch Li thought, if you were closer, you wouldn't drop that inkstone, and if you were closer, you could save this one. You might not drop your own inkstone, but you could only say, "It's my fault. I'm old and have no sense of justice. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"Do you know how to tell the Imperial Concubine?" Emperor Yong'an rolled his eyes and had an idea. Perhaps after getting rid of the old one, he could get a new one.

"I'm awake, I'm awake." Eunuch Li stood up and went out to call for someone to clean up.

Emperor Yong'an said to Ying San who was still kneeling on the ground: "Investigate thoroughly and don't let anyone off no matter who they are."

"Yes, sir." Ying San responded and immediately disappeared.

Emperor Yong'an was still furious. In the royal family, it was inevitable to fight for power and profit, and it was understandable to plot and scheme, but the lives of innocent children could not be used in plots and schemes. If such an inhuman prince were allowed to ascend the throne, the lives of the common people would be treated like grass. Could we still expect him to be diligent in government and benefit the people?

That little girl was a savior and a lover. Compared with her, his son was so pathetic that he was too ashamed to see Fei'er.

The strong thought once again arose in Emperor Yong'an's mind: Can Dayan have a female emperor?
