Hu Xinglin from the Imperial Hospital, but she was the son of her wet nurse. After her wet nurse passed away, she has been taking good care of him.

When he wanted to study medicine, I arranged a way for him.

Lian didn't believe that Hu Xinglin would stab her in the back.

If someone who knows everything about him is not trustworthy, then isn't the Duke's Mansion doomed?

Jiang Ying didn't say anything in a hurry. He poured out a pill and put it directly into his mouth.

Lian was so shocked that she almost jumped up, "Jiang girl, you!"

Jiang Ying was unusually calm, "It's okay, I'll try it."

[Stupid mother, how hungry are you? You even don't let go of the medicine for medical treatment! ]

[Didn’t you just have breakfast? You ate two bowls! ]

"..." Jiang Ying ignored his son's screaming and gently crushed the pill to taste it. Sure enough, he found something unusual in it.

She took a sip of tea, rinsed her mouth, and spit it back into the cup.

"Old man, do you know about realgar?"

Lian was surprised and asked, "Reed is not called realgar?"

Jiang Ying explained, "We have all heard of realgar, which is a common medicine for treating diseases such as abdominal pain caused by infestation and epilepsy. Realgar is often accompanied by orpiment. In addition to realgar being able to treat this disease, it can also treat cold phlegm, cough and asthma, which is your current disease."

Lian became more and more confused as she listened. "Girl Jiang, what do you mean, I put realgar in my pills? If it's the right medicine for the disease, what's the problem?"

"The problem is that in the preparation of the medicine, not only was the right orpiment used, but the wrong realgar was also used. Although the amounts were small, when the two were combined, their pharmacological toxicity would be amplified by more than ten times.

"Regardless of whether realgar is good or bad, it cannot be taken for a long time. No matter how toxic it is, if it cannot be excreted from the body over time, it is equivalent to arsenic."

Lian was so shocked by these words that he couldn't recover from his shock for a moment. His eyes were dazed, staring at Jiang Ying's clear eyes.

She did not suspect that Jiang Ying was deceiving her, but she could not believe that she had been deceived so much.

The medicine had been carefully checked before use, and no problems were found. It was obvious that the person who handled it must have assisted in harming her!

Jiang Ying was not surprised at Lian's reaction and stood up gently. "If you don't believe me, you can ask the guards to catch a few wild cats and feed them the medicine. Wild cats are much larger than cats, and the toxicity of the medicine on them is very low. When it is put on cats, the effect will be much more obvious."

Death will not occur, but drowsiness or vomiting is inevitable.

After eating and seeing the doctor, Jiang Ying politely said his last goodbye.

Lian was confused and wanted to keep her for a while, but Jiang Ying said that the child had not been fed in the morning and Yinping had been out several times, so she gave up trying to keep her.

"Well, I'll invite you to have tea some other day." The old man forced a smile. "I'm going up the mountain this time, and I plan to stay for a full seventy-seven or forty days. Only thirty-two days have passed."

Tactfully tell Jiang Ying about her itinerary.

Jiang Ying nodded, "Thank you for your concern. I hope my trip will not be in vain and that all my wishes will come true and I will be rewarded as I wish."

Lian shook her head and said, "Meeting you, Jiang girl, here is the most worthwhile thing for me on this trip."

In just a moment, the shock and uneasiness on Lian's face disappeared, leaving only endless indifference.

As soon as Jiang Ying left, Lian immediately called a few maids and Grandma Tang into the house, "Go, arrange to catch a few wild cats. I want to see what kind of trouble they want me to go to!"

Several of the silver faces were suddenly shocked.

Grandma Tang was also startled. She opened her mouth to ask more questions, but she saw the medicine that Yinping had just brought back on the table, thrown around carelessly, tilted, and even some spilled.

Instantly, he realized the seriousness of the matter, and spoke again with a trembling voice, "Yinshuang, go quickly, and do as I tell you, quietly, and don't make any noise."

There are several Yinzhis. Yinshuang is steady, Yinping is careful, Yinzhu is clever, and Yinrui... Yinrui doesn't have any advantages. She just eats and chatters with her mouth, and she always tries to make things fresh for the old man and relieve his boredom.

The four maids looked at each other, not daring to say anything more, and each went about their own business.

Only Yinping and Grandma Tang stayed in the room.

Lian changed her sitting posture, and instead of being angry, she smiled and said, "Tell me, what good news did you bring back from your trip?"

Yinping lowered her head, unable to help but feel sorry for the old man.

What kind of day is this? There is not a single peaceful day. Either the Duke is temporarily sent to the front line, or my brothers and sisters have accidents. Now even my medicine has cat shit in it!

In everyone's eyes, this old man has been blessed with a high status and enjoys a life of wealth and leisure, but little do they know that all this is just an appearance.

The entire Duke's Mansion was shaken by the wind and rain, and was in a panic. If it weren't for this old man holding on, who knows what would have happened!

But the Duke's wife still doesn't understand me. She is full of resentment, and she says and does things in a way that makes me so angry that I even come to the temple.

"It's... it's about the eldest lady's marriage." Yinping felt sad and spoke hesitantly.

Lian glanced at her and said, "Just say it openly. It's so troublesome. Do you think I can die?

"If I die, it will probably be what she wants.

"Shang'er is at the border, so I have to row the boat to prevent him from being distracted. Otherwise, how about I give her the hot seat of housekeeping?"

"Yes, I am usually open-minded, and I am ashamed of myself!"

Yinping breathed a sigh of relief, mainly because her husband was so seriously ill yesterday, and she didn't dare to tell him for fear of upsetting her.

Now it seems that after taking Mrs. Jiang's medicine, not only has my condition improved, but my mentality has also become more open.

This is a good thing.

"When I returned, I heard that the emperor had arranged a marriage for our daughter. It was with Prince Qin's son, Prince Yan.

"For such a matter, my husband should have consulted me first and then made a decision. Who would have thought that my husband would quietly agree without sending any information to the mountain?

"I...I also heard that Prince Yan was in such a hurry to get married just for a concubine, and now he wants to bring the concubine and his son to the palace as soon as possible."

"Stupid! Stupid!" The old man looked at him with hatred and pounded the table fiercely.

I have already made sufficient mental preparations, so no matter how absurd the news is, I can face it calmly.

Who could have thought that the legitimate daughter of a Duke's Mansion would be forced to marry!

"What on earth is Luo thinking?! She always says that she knows how to educate her children and loves them, but she blames me for bringing up my two brothers to be too upright and single-minded in serving the court.

"When it came to Sister Lin's marriage, she herself was confused.

"That woman who is so promiscuous and keeps a concubine is nothing, even if she is a royal relative. She has been married to my Duke's Mansion for more than 20 years, what has she done to deserve such a light eyelid!"

Don't blame me for being angry. What good girl would agree to such a marriage?

Once you get married, you have to support the family!

I still don't know what the mistress's gender is or what she looks like, but since a man has exposed her and wants to take her into the mansion, how can she not be scheming? How can she not have any tricks?

And I have a son to keep me company.

I don't even need to think about how miserable the days after getting married will be.

What if she's still a lowly, coquettish person?

Are you going to compete with her, the daughter of a Duke's mansion? If you don't compete, it will be embarrassing! If you compete, you will feel uncomfortable!

Lian was scratching his head, but couldn't understand why Luo agreed.

If it were her, even if it was a gift marriage, even if she died in the Jinluan Palace, she would never ruin her children's half-life happiness!

“Cough, cough, cough, cough…” This old man didn’t cough much at first, but suddenly he couldn’t help but started coughing violently.

Grandma Tang felt extremely distressed, and hurried forward to pat the old man on the back, "Ah, look at you, why are you so angry? Didn't you say before that you could let them do whatever they want? In the end, where can you put it!"

"I... ahem... I am..."

"I know, I know." Grandma Tang said, "Of course you are disappointed. No matter how you and your husband quarrel, the child is still the Jiang family. The first and second brothers have already been like that. You feel more guilty than anyone else. If Sister Lin is still not well, you are afraid that the Duke will come back and blame you."

"Yinping, bring me a glass of water with the medicine that Mrs. Jiang prescribed!" Grandma Tang raised her head and ordered.

After drinking the spiritual spring water for a while, Lian slowly stopped coughing.

She sighed, "Grandma Tang, you are the only one who understands me, an old woman. Sigh..."

Yin Ping pursed her lips tightly, thought for a while, and finally spoke, "Old man, actually...actually it was Miss Di who nodded herself. My husband tried to persuade her, but she seemed to have already fallen in love with Prince Yan."

Hearing this, Lian suddenly sat up, her calm eyes almost bursting.

"What did you say? Sister Lin had a secret relationship with that filthy thing?"
