Chapter 98 The Queen Mother Was Bombed

98

He had taken out many dishes in the small clinic, and now only some instant noodles were left. He cooked two packets and watched Fu Jiangyu squeezed on the small dining table with him to eat instant noodles. Fu Jiangyu was really a love-brained person. He used to be an emperor with fine clothes and delicious food, but after following him, he could only wear polyester pants and eat instant noodles. Even so, Fu Jiangyu still chose to go home with him.

"What are you looking at me for?" Fu Jiangyu thought the instant noodles he had eaten were quite delicious. It was a flavor he had never tasted before, very special.

"I feel like you're like a love-brained woman who married into the mountains." Lin Baige felt a little sorry for him. "Luckily, you fell in love with me, not someone else. I'm not lying to you. If it were someone else, they would have squeezed out all your usefulness and devoured you until there was nothing left."

Fu Jiangyu pinched his face and said, "I know. You are the only one who treats me best. But I am the only one who has found a fairy companion. Others want to be with fairies but don't have the opportunity yet. So it's not that you deceived me."

Thanks to Fu Jiangyu's love-brained nature, Lin Baige was not worried that after Fu Jiangyu went to the real world with him, he would see the technological development of the future world, gain more knowledge, and think that he was not a god but just an ordinary person, and would abandon him.

…

Lin Baige returned to the palace and looked at the transportation data of the train in the past month. If the effect is good, he could open another line and spread it across the country bit by bit.

Not long after he returned, he heard news from outside the palace that the empress dowager's goddaughter had taken explosives to blow up the empress dowager's bedroom and injured her.

Lin Baige was shocked: "What's going on? Wasn't she studying at school? How did she get the explosives? Also, why did she go to blow up the Queen Mother's bedroom? Is this some kind of conspiracy? The Queen Mother wants to frame me, let her goddaughter blow her up, and then go and tell Fu Jiangyu that it was me who wanted to kill the Queen Mother?"

Lin Baige felt a chill running up from the soles of his feet. If he was charged with this crime, it would be dangerous.

After all, she is Fu Jiangyu's mother, the Queen Mother. Even if Fu Jiangyu believes him, others will not believe him, and everyone will force Fu Jiangyu to execute him.

Lin Baige asked the eunuch: "What happened? How is the Queen Mother's condition now?"

Eunuch Chen looked embarrassed. "The Queen Mother's condition is not good at all. The palace doctors are helpless. She also refused to be treated by the doctors in the hospital. The Queen Mother thinks that they are all your students and cannot be trusted."

"It's already this time, and she still doesn't trust me? Does she really want to use her own life to frame me?" Lin Baige wandered around the bedroom. After all, she was Fu Jiangyu's mother, and a human life. How could he just leave her alone?

"Forget it, I'll go and take a look. There's no time to waste." Lin Baige didn't care about that anymore. After completing the task this time, the system gave him a prop to travel back randomly. If this was really just a trap, he would come back alive after leaving his bedroom. He could also use a rule of traveling through time and space to come back and rewrite his fate.

"Let's go and take a look at the Empress Dowager." Lin Baige asked Eunuch Chen and Fourteen to follow him to the Empress Dowager's bedroom, and also instructed the Imperial Guards to follow and protect him.

As a result, he brought his troops there, and the Queen Mother, her chamber maids, and some ministers who rushed over after hearing the news all mistakenly thought that he was there to find out about the Queen Mother.

After all, everyone had seen how the Queen Mother had targeted Lin Baige in the past. How could Lin Baige, a deity, allow a mortal to target her? She must be punishing the Queen Mother.

Even if Lin Baige wasn't a deity, there were still conflicts between them, and they understood Lin Baige's desire to kill the Queen Mother, especially now that the Emperor was away, and he rushed over...

No, the Emperor was away from the capital, and Lin Baige had led his troops to surround the Empress Dowager's chambers. What was he trying to do? Was he planning a rebellion? Was he taking advantage of the Emperor's absence to become the Emperor himself?

In an instant, everyone became nervous. On one side was the emperor, and on the other side was a god descending to earth. No one knew which side to stand on.

But soon some ministers realized that if he was really a god, he would definitely disdain the throne of the mortal world. He looked like a monster.

Could it be that he has been pretending all this time?

People were in panic, but the royal guards surrounded the empress dowager's bedroom, so they couldn't go in to see what was going on, let alone save the empress dowager.

After Lin Baige went in, he saw that the Queen Mother's injuries were quite serious, so he hurriedly took out the medicine box to clean the Queen Mother's wounds.

But the maids around the Queen Mother actually stopped him from passing, saying, "How can you touch the Queen Mother's phoenix body? Even if you are His Majesty's concubine, you are still a man."

"I am still a god and am not subject to the rules of your mortal world. Get out of the way!" Lin Baige thought to himself that these palace maids and nannies were the ones who really wanted to kill the empress dowager. They were still concerned about their reputation in such a matter of life and death.

In the past, he thought that ordinary women in Jin were miserable and were bound by their reputation. He didn't expect that the empress dowager, who was the emperor's biological mother, would be bound by such rules and regulations.

Lin Baige ordered Fourteen to bring the secret guards to control everyone in the Queen Mother's bedroom. "No one is allowed to come and interfere with my treatment of the Queen Mother. Anyone who dares to disobey my orders will be killed without mercy."

After receiving the order, the secret guard separated Lin Baige from the others and no one was allowed to approach.

When Lin Baige went to check on the Queen Mother's injuries, she was still awake, but not as energetic as before.

"You're really good at this. You even instigated my goddaughter to assassinate me." The Queen Mother was indeed the Queen Mother. Even with such injuries, she remained calm and only frowned. This reminded Lin Baige of Fu Jiangyu. They were indeed mother and son, so similar. Lin Baige was even a little bit fond of her and loved her too much.

"How would I know why your goddaughter wanted to blow you up? I never intended to harm you. It's you who's always been against me." Lin Baige said as he treated her wounds. "You don't have to worry about me harming your son. When you recover, go out of the palace and see me, and you'll know how I am."

"Will I still be able to leave the palace alive?" The Queen Mother was prejudiced against Lin Baige. "I have been defeated by you. I accept my fate. You don't have to pretend to save me. You can fool others, but you can't fool me."

"I know you are the champion of the last palace fight, but I don't have time to fight with you. Your ideas are outdated, just like the previous Lord Zhang. Fortunately, the current Lord Zhang has changed his mind about me. When you get better, go out and take a look, and he will also change his mind about me." Lin Baige said this without stopping his hands. Chatting with the Queen Mother could also divert her attention and prevent her from being too frightened.

When he treated patients in the clinic in the past, he would comfort them, especially since there were many children and elderly people there, and all of them needed comforting. He had long been accustomed to it.

Now he treated the Queen Mother as an elderly patient with a stubborn temper.

The Queen Mother thought that he was just speaking nicely, but he was going to kill him. But then she changed her mind and realized that Lin Baige's words were not nice either, and there was not a bit of respect in them. Not to mention that she was the Queen Mother, even if she was not the Queen Mother, but a woman from an ordinary family, how could a daughter-in-law speak to her mother-in-law in such an attitude?

As expected, you can’t marry a man!

Lin Baige cleaned and disinfected the empress dowager's wounds. Although they looked serious, they were actually just superficial injuries. As long as they were treated properly and avoided infection, they would not be life-threatening.

The reason why he felt the situation was urgent just now was because this injury was more difficult to treat in ancient times. If it became infected, it would easily lead to death, especially now that the weather is so hot.

Lin Baige stayed by the Queen Mother's side for several days, changing her dressings every day and even living in the outer room. He also asked his students to come and help take care of the Queen Mother, successfully helping her through the critical period.

When Lin Baige was changing the dressing for the Queen Mother, he was still thinking that the Queen Mother was so lucky. If it were in the future, he would not dare to accept such an injury. He would suggest that the other party go to a regular large hospital for treatment immediately. Now there was no other way, he could only come in person.

He thought about it and decided not to tell Fu Jiangyu. Fu Jiangyu was on the front line, so it was better not to make Fu Jiangyu worry.

The palace maids and ministers all thought that Lin Baige did not let anyone pass the news to Fu Jiangyu because he wanted to assassinate the empress dowager, and then wait for the right opportunity to assassinate the emperor as well, and then Lin Baige would sit on the throne.

Fu Jiangyu is now in Jiang Country and cannot come back. At this moment, everyone feels that this is a dead end.

But not long after, the Queen Mother recovered, and after she recovered, her attitude towards Lin Baige also changed. Although she did not become more affectionate, she did not cause trouble for Lin Baige again, nor did she say anything bad about Lin Baige.

Were they overthinking it? Lin Baige was a deity after all. He would leave after helping the Jin Kingdom prosper. How could he give up his deity just for the throne?

A small number of people suspect that Lin Baige is not a god, but a demon, and the current queen mother is very likely a puppet created by Lin Baige.

Lin Baige wanted to roll his eyes when he heard this. If he was so powerful, would they still be alive? He could just turn everyone into puppets and play the single-player game himself.

After the Queen Mother was rescued, he asked someone to bring the Queen Mother's goddaughter over. He wanted to ask her why the other party wanted to blow up the Queen Mother. Was it the Queen Mother who ordered it or someone else to frame him?

After asking carefully, she found out that the Queen Mother had captured her sister and used her to threaten her to seduce Lin Baige.

Lin Baige: "...I thought the Queen Mother asked you to seduce the Emperor, but you actually wanted to seduce me? Am I that easy to seduce? I only like handsome men. If the Queen Mother wants to send someone to seduce, she should find a handsome man."

Eunuch Chen listened and nervously advised him, "Don't dare say that. If His Majesty heard this, I'm afraid His Majesty would castrate all the handsome men in the world."

Lin Baige quickly covered his mouth: "That's true. It wouldn't be good if the Queen Mother heard it. If the Queen Mother heard that I like handsome muscular men, she would probably send a handsome muscular man to seduce me. Then I really don't know if I can control myself."
