Chapter 185 Grandmother Forbids Luo'er from Getting Involved with Prince Su Anymore
Dr. Du's expression became somewhat excited.
"Your Highness took a whole bottle of Kirin Pills?"
"One Qilin Pill can invigorate blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and three pills can cure internal injuries. This whole bottle was filled by me personally, and there are at least twenty pills!"
"Logically speaking, if Your Highness had eaten twenty of them at once, you should have died instantly, bleeding from all seven orifices!"
"However, Your Highness is poisoned by datura, so the two drugs are colliding and impacting in your body, causing either a sudden high fever or hypothermia. If Your Highness fails to reduce the fever or maintain your body temperature in time, it will inevitably cause extremely serious damage to the meridians in your body!"
"But I just checked, and there is nothing wrong with His Highness's meridians. Not only has the poison been suppressed, but the Qilin Pill should still be slowly releasing its effects."
"As for the matter of cessation that Your Highness mentioned, is it before or after Your Highness took the medicine?"
Duan Rongshi: "Before taking the medicine."
If he were sober, he would never have let her act so recklessly.
But unexpectedly, it actually saved his life by a twist of fate.
Taking this whole bottle of twenty Qilin pills at once is like taking a potent, dangerous medicine; it really is a strong dose.
General's Mansion.
Li Qingluo is still in Jingci Hall.
After having dinner with Madam Pei, Madam Pei dismissed everyone around her before asking her what had happened in the past two days.
Li Qingluo didn't want to hide it from her grandmother.
She first told Madam Pei about what happened at the horse farm and on the way back, and then mentioned Prince Su.
"Since the guards can't leave, let Luo'er deliver the medicine."
"Unexpectedly, we encountered an ambush. His Highness Prince Su was protecting Luo'er, and we were caught in the crossfire. Princess Qinyu and His Highness Prince Su's guards only found us today."
Li Qingluo naturally dared not mention the perilous parts of what had happened in the past two days.
When Madam Pei heard the name 'Prince Su', her face changed.
"You're actually with him?! Then you and him..."
Li Qingluo: "Grandmother, don't worry. Prince Su was injured and was unconscious the whole time. Apart from taking care of him, I had almost no contact with him. He doesn't know anything about it."
Madam Pei breathed a sigh of relief.
"This Prince Su is cunning, ruthless, and vicious. But fortunately, he is different from those truly evil people. He has the dignity and dignity of a prince. Although he is vicious, he is not evil."
"You came back so unharmed, he must have protected you?"
Li Qingluo nodded: "Yes, perhaps it's because of his grandmother? You all lived at Qingsong Temple before, and he seems to still have some respect for his grandmother."
Madam Pei sighed, "What respect is there to speak of? It's just that they're remembering my past glory and are still giving this old woman a little face."
After all, Madam Pei was once the only female general in the Great Liang Kingdom; who in the world doesn't know that?
Everyone who encounters her will give her some face.
"Luo'er, now that this matter is over, let's let it go as soon as possible."
"From now on, you must not have any further dealings with that Prince Su."
“This Prince Su is quite well-mannered; he had Princess Qinyu send you back, so you didn’t get tainted by his reputation.”
Li Qingluo didn't understand why her grandmother was so reluctant to mention Prince Su.
Is Grandmother afraid that she will repeat Liu Qingzhu's mistakes?
That is, of course, absolutely impossible.
Let's set aside the fact that Prince Su is not Prince Yun.
Judging from the look on Prince Yun's face, he was no good person.
And I heard that the Prince Su's mansion doesn't even have a maidservant to serve him personally...
Perhaps, what he liked wasn't a girl at all?
Moreover, she knew perfectly well that Prince Su and she were worlds apart, so she never entertained any wild or inappropriate thoughts.
Even though she sacrificed herself to save Prince Su's life this time, it was only because she genuinely didn't want him to die.
As for the rest, she really didn't think much about it.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Old Madam Pei reached out and tapped her: "This matter must be kept completely secret. Do you understand?"
Li Qingluo nodded, but a question lingered in her mind: "Grandmother, Prince Su's reputation is indeed terrifying, but why are you so wary of him?"
Madam Pei sighed deeply: "Grandmother doesn't want you to get involved in his mess!"
“This Prince Su was born to the Emperor’s most beloved Consort Yue. Did you know that he was also the Emperor’s favorite when he was young? Of all the Emperor’s sons, only he was carried to court by the Emperor when he was four years old, and sat on the Emperor’s lap to receive the homage of thousands of people.”
"Even the former crown prince has never received such an honor!"
Li Qingluo was indeed very surprised!
After all, people in the public know that their father-son relationship is not good.
Although the emperor always turned a blind eye to Prince Su's way of handling cases, even if he suddenly slaughtered his entire family, His Majesty would not really blame him, but would only give him a few mild reprimands, and Prince Su would continue to do as he pleased.
But the emperor never seemed to think of his fifth son when it came to his good deeds.
He wasn't affectionate with the Fifth Prince at all; it seemed he only treated him as a tool and means to be used...
Therefore, Li Qingluo never expected that Prince Su was also pampered and doted on by the emperor when he was young.
"The whole story begins many years ago. When Prince Su was six years old, Consort Yue suddenly died in her palace. The cause of her death is shrouded in mystery, and the truth remains unsolved to this day. But the emperor only claims to the public that Consort Yue died from a sudden serious illness."
"The entire harem, including the Empress Dowager, the Empress, all the concubines, and all the palace servants, is forbidden from mentioning this matter again. The entire Moon Laurel Palace is being purged, and all the palace servants are to be strangled!"
"Only Prince Su and Princess Qinyu came out alive."
Madam Pei looked at Li Qingluo and said, "His current cruel and bloodthirsty nature as Prince Su is inevitably related to the things he experienced in his childhood."
"He also has the blood of the Chu royal family in his veins, so the emperor, who is already suspicious, would never consider Prince Su as the successor to the throne."
"But will Prince Su be willing to accept this?"
"Has he really never had any intention of finding out the truth about his mother's death after all these years of lying low?"
"If he were to become embroiled in the power struggle for the throne, how could those around him remain uninvolved and innocent?"
There was a reason why Madam Pei considered all this.
But ultimately, it was Prince Su's life, and no matter how complicated it was, she only hoped that her beloved granddaughter could stay far away from it.
As for how Duan Rongshi will cause chaos in the future, that's his own business.
To reassure Madam Pei, Li Qingluo raised her finger and swore, "Grandmother, if I ever meet His Highness Prince Su again, I will stay as far away as possible and will never have anything to do with him again."
Madam Pei was finally relieved.
After Li Qingluo had a good night's sleep, Deng Mama came in and said, "Miss, this old servant has inquired and they say it happened on the seventeenth."
Li Qingluo immediately sat up: "Tell me quickly."
She came home last night, lay down in her warm bed, and fell fast asleep.
But before going to bed, she asked Granny Deng to find out what was going on with Liu Mian'er.
As it turns out, coincidentally, Liu Mian'er also entered the General's Mansion on the seventeenth day.
No sooner had Li Qingluo left the general's mansion than she was personally carried back by that shameless old man, Li Chaojing.
“Miss, this old servant has inquired. It is said that Liu Mian’er has finally finished her mourning period for her aunt these past few days, so the government is preparing to arrest her and send her to be married off to a husband’s family.”
"Of course she won't agree. Who knows what good match she could possibly have at her age?"
"It's one thing if you're a rotten gourd or a cracked date, but if you encounter a whole family of bad people, you might die after a year of suffering."
"Liu Mian'er wasn't one to accept her fate. She would run away whenever she saw a government office. The person I sent to her side had already received instructions from the young lady, so he took Liu Mian'er to the streets every day. The purpose was to try their luck in places where the master frequented."
"And what a coincidence! On the seventeenth, right in front of you, Master, Liu Mian'er was captured by the government officials and was about to be taken away."
"The master probably hasn't forgotten about Liu Mian'er, so naturally he stepped in to save her."
"When Liu Mian'er saw the master, she cried so miserably."
"It is said that the people on both sides of the Qinhuai River all saw it. Liu Mian'er knelt at the master's feet, saying that she had nowhere else to turn and begged the master to take her in. She was willing to be a slave or a maid, to do cleaning and washing, but she did not want to be taken by the government to be randomly married off to a husband's family."
"Young lady, think about it, a delicate old maid who, although she is a bit older, is still unmarried, clinging to the master as if he were a god descended from heaven to save her. What man in the world could resist that?"
"Even though the master is no longer a young man, all men in this world, even those who are eighty years old, love beauty and youth. Not to mention those who are admired and loved to the extreme, no matter who they are, they will be bewitched."
Sparrow chuckled from the side: "Master must still think he's a withered tree that has come back to life, right?"
Li Qinglu sneered: "He's probably been itching for this for a long time. Now that he's finally openly and legitimately won the heart of his beauty, isn't he going crazy for a few days?"
