Chapter 54 Confirming Her Suspicion
"Old man, please feel my pulse too."
The old doctor put his hand on Shen Zhao's wrist, looked at the official uniform on Shen Zhao and said, "Your Excellency is General Chu, right? The only commander left in Kyoto City is General Chu of the Jingzhong Army..."
As he spoke, the old doctor frowned slightly.
He took the pulse again as if he didn't believe it.
"General, you..."
Shen Zhao had already received confirmation from the old doctor's expression, "Old sir, was I also given a sterilizing drug, and the person who gave me the drug started giving me the drug a long time ago? Am I right, old sir?"
The old doctor withdrew his hand and said, "General Chu has guessed who the drug was, right?"
Yes, she already knew who drugged her and Chu Mu.
If that was the case, then her bold idea yesterday was true.
Chu Mu is not the old woman's biological son.
"Husband...Husband, do you know who drugged me?"
Shen Zhao glanced at Chu Mu and did not answer him. Instead, he looked at the old doctor and said, "Old sir, how many years have I been drugged?"
If she said directly that it was your mother, Chu Mu might not believe it, but if the doctor told her the time when he was drugged.
Chu Mu would guess who it was.
"About nineteen years."
“Ten…nineteen years…” Chu Mu looked at the old doctor looking at Shen Zhao in disbelief.
He had been drugged for nineteen years!
It couldn't be Lin Jiaojiao, and it was even less likely to be my second sister-in-law.
It is also impossible that it is the eldest brother and the second brother.
When my eldest brother was young, he lived with his grandparents in the ancestral home.
His second brother was only three years older than him, and nineteen years ago he and his second brother were both children.
There was no way that the second brother could have drugged him.
Could it be the father?
"Doctor... is my husband... is he being drugged?" Chu Mu asked nervously.
My father has been dead for five years. If it were my father, he wouldn't be drugged now.
"Two days ago, General Chu took a small dose of a sterilizing drug. The same person gave the drug to both of you, and the dosage is exactly the same."
boom!
The old doctor's words were like a bolt of thunder, leaving Chu Mu burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.
The only person who could have drugged him for nineteen years was… only one person.
That's mother.
This...how is it possible!
How could his mother possibly give him drugs, especially drugs that can cause infertility?
wrong!
If he had been given a sterilizing drug, the palace physician would check his pulse every month, so why didn't he diagnose the problem once?
Unless the court doctor concealed the truth.
The court doctor was someone my mother had found a few years ago.
boom!
"No...impossible...how is it possible?" Chu Mu muttered to himself.
That was his mother, the mother he had always admired.
From childhood to adulthood, he has always been the child who listens to his mother the most, although his mother treats him more strictly and harshly than her two brothers.
But he knew that his mother was doing this for his own good, so that he could have a successful future and support the Chu family.
Even when he went to the military camp, his father strongly opposed it, and it was his mother who knelt in front of his father with him and begged for an opportunity for him.
In the military camp, he often received cakes made by his mother.
How could his mother harm him?
There must be someone hiding in the dark to harm him and A Zhao, it must be like this.
Ah Zhao just said that she knew who poisoned them both, and she would definitely guess that it was her mother.
After all, A Zhao had a very bad impression of his mother, so he couldn't help but suspect that it was his mother who did it.
"Husband...husband, it's definitely not the person you guessed. She couldn't have drugged you and me. Husband, there must be someone hiding in the dark, trying to harm you and me."
Upon hearing this, Shen Zhao really wanted to pry open Chu Mu's wooden head to see if it was filled with glue.
Who would pay attention to a tiny kid nineteen years ago, and hide beside him for nineteen years with nothing to do, just to drug him every day.
It's hard to say how idle he must be. This person must be mentally ill. At that time, Chu Mu was just the third son of a minor official. Why would he harm such a harmless little kid!
Doesn’t he understand such a simple truth?
He was so convinced that the old woman was a good person, but it was also his fault that she had harmed him and caused him to have no descendants.
"Doctor...is there any antidote for the drug my husband and I are taking? Will we still be able to have children in the future?"
He wanted to have a child of his own with Ah Zhao, no matter if it was a boy or a girl, as long as it was their child.
The old doctor shook his head and said, "General Chu's body has accumulated a lot of infertility drugs over the years, and it has already penetrated deep into his bones and blood. Unless there is an elixir,
Your lady has already been given a sterilizing drug, and I just took your lady's pulse and found that she has a cold and is weak, just like you, General. Unless there is an elixir, she will be in great danger.
Otherwise, you two will never be able to give birth to children in the future."
There is no way she could give birth to an offspring...
"It's impossible to give birth to a child!" Chu Mu muttered to himself as if he had lost his soul.
It wasn't until Chen Zhao brought Zi Su back to Jin Yuxuan and made all the necessary arrangements, and the two of them boarded the carriage back home, that Chu Mu regained his composure.
He stared intently at Shen Zhao, who was resting with his eyes closed.
"A Zhao...don't worry, even if we don't have children, I will still treat you wholeheartedly and will never let you down."
Without raising his eyelids, Chen Zhao said coldly, "Have you not owed me enough? What does it matter if you have children or not?"
Chen Zhao took off his court clothes and changed into the casual clothes prepared in the carriage, and shouted to the driver, "Stop!"
After saying that, he glanced at Chu Mu and said, "You go back home first. I still have to go to the army in Beijing. When you go back home later, please stay away from me. I'm afraid that your loving mother will beat you to death with this outfit."
It doesn't matter if you die, but please don't hurt my body."
Before Chu Mu could speak, the man had already jumped off the carriage.
He left quickly in annoyance.
Not betraying her? But he did everything to betray her.
The streets are bustling with people, and both sides of the road are lined with business stalls.
Shen Zhao was about to go to the military camp.
Suddenly a familiar figure passed through the crowd in front of her.
Shen Zhao hurriedly followed, hiding in the crowd.
Lin Jiaojiao, who had never stepped out of the general's mansion for many years, actually left the general's mansion alone.
And it was Lin Jiaojiao in disguise.
If someone is not familiar with Lin Jiaojiao, they would not recognize Lin Jiaojiao at this moment.
Looking at Lin Jiaojiao moving nimbly among the crowd, there was no trace of her previous fragile appearance.
Lin Jiaojiao circled the street several times and quickened her pace towards a hidden path.
Shen Zhao hurried to catch up. The further he went, the narrower the path became, and the fewer places there were to hide.
Fortunately, Lin Jiaojiao stopped at the door of a house and did not go any further inside.
Shen Zhao kept staring at Lin Jiaojiao.
After Lin Jiaojiao knocked on the door three times in a row, she knocked five more times rhythmically.
At this time, the courtyard door was opened from the inside. Due to the angle, Chen Zhao only saw Lin Jiaojiao entering, but did not see whether the person who opened the door for Lin Jiaojiao was a man or a woman.
After the gate was closed again, Shen Zhao hurried over quietly, looked at the wall, and jumped up effortlessly. She did not stop on the wall.
She quickly jumped onto the roof. She had just observed that the jujube tree in the yard was lush and leafy, and more than half of its branches happened to extend to the roof.
She hid in it and no one could see her.
It's broad daylight now. If she lies on someone else's roof without any hesitation, she would be discovered.
With a "bang", the door of the room downstairs was kicked open by someone.
After you provide the great god cat to eat raw pickled body swap, the general tore his white moonlight
