"What?" Jiang Li took it and looked at it. "It looks like... a lotus?"
Xue Rou nodded, "When Mom went to ask for amulets for your father and brothers a few days ago, she also asked for one for you."
"Give me?"
"Yes, mother specially went to worship Guanyin Bodhisattva and asked her to bless you and the prince to have a child soon." Xue Rou looked at Jiang Li with a smile, "Mother, I asked for a fertility talisman specifically for you. When I embroider it, you can hang it next to your bed. It's very effective!"
Jiang Li blushed when she heard this, "Mother..."
She is a doctor, and she still believes in science when it comes to childbirth.
She had just been married to Prince Jingling and was not in a hurry to have a child. If she really wanted a child, she would naturally take good care of her body and calculate the right date, and she would naturally be able to get pregnant quickly.
However, the poison in Prince Jingling's body had only been removed not long ago, so she felt it would be better to wait another two years before having a child.
So after she had sex with Prince Jingling, she didn't take any preventive medicine. That was because the time was not on her lucky day, which was why she was not worried about getting pregnant.
"You, stop giggling at me. Didn't you say the prince is well again? After this war is over, you have to take this matter to heart. Do you hear me?"
After all, Jiang Li is the wife of Prince Jingling and the daughter-in-law of the royal family. Continuing the family line is an important responsibility. Xue Rou is considering Jiang Li.
She only has this one daughter. As long as Jiang Li gives birth to a legitimate son, no matter whether Prince Jingling takes a concubine in the future, Jiang Li's position will be secure. After all, her family members are not pushovers.
Jiang Li didn't expect that her mother had thought so far.
However, this conversation did relieve Xue Rou's previous nervousness a lot.
Jiang Li calculated the time and practiced Tai Chi with Xue Rou for a while, and finally coaxed her mother to sleep.
Thinking that there were important things to do in the evening, Jiang Li asked Xue Rou, who had just washed up, to lie down on the bed so that she could give her acupuncture.
He had long known that his daughter's acupuncture skills were the most powerful. After Master Xue had experienced it before, he often talked about it. Xue Rou didn't think much about it and cooperated directly.
A quarter of an hour later.
When Jiang Li closed the door and came out, Mo Qi had already arranged four secret guards from Mo Yun Pavilion in the yard.
"princess."
The maid who had been waiting outside the door came forward and bowed.
"Go in and wait on her. My mother has already gone to bed. No matter what noise you hear later, don't open the door."
She gave Xue Rou a sleeping injection, and unless there was any noise that was particularly loud, she would basically not be woken up.
After all, she is old, and Jiang Yao is not at home, so Jiang Li doesn't want Xue Rou to be too scared.
At that time, the maid saw that the princess's subordinates had arranged several people to guard the yard. They all looked very powerful. In addition, with the princess's instructions, she was no longer afraid.
"Yes, Princess."
After settling Xue Rou, Jiang Li went straight to the backyard.
"Princess, what are you going to do next?"
Mo Xiaoxiao knocked the man unconscious and tied him up and put him in the woodshed, preparing to send him to the Dali Temple tomorrow.
Jiang Li asked Bai Zhi to change her into some light clothes while saying, "Wait."
"wait?"
…
midnight.
After the night watchman walked past the mansion gate twice.
A beam of white light shot straight up into the sky from the general's mansion, and then turned into a blue firework in the sky.
A few breaths later, Mo Qi heard several regular knocks at the side door.
After glancing at the guards hiding in various places in the courtyard, Mo Qi quietly opened the side door.
Then he flashed and hid behind a rockery not far away.
A man peeked out from outside the door, and seeing that there was no movement inside, he quietly slipped in.
"Little Liuzi runs away pretty fast."
After the leading man came in, he looked around again. Seeing that no one was passing by, he waved behind him with relief.
"It seems that everyone in this mansion has been poisoned and passed out. I'm afraid Xiao Liuzi is taking advantage of the opportunity to make money!"
Another person sneered, "A bandit is a bandit. Once this mission is completed, there will be a reward of silver. But he wants to take it all in one go."
"Okay, stop talking. The boss said we must make this a quick decision."
The leader took two more steps forward and then waved his hand, "Go!"
After saying this, the person behind him quickly disappeared into the darkness.
but……
After a few breaths, the sound of fighting was heard.
When the leader rushed to the backyard and saw the man sitting in the pavilion, he said, "Oh no! We've fallen into a trap!"
But it's too late.
The guards who should have been knocked unconscious by the poison rushed out from all directions.
Jiang Li sat in the pavilion, eating fruits, drinking hot tea, and watching the show leisurely.
"If you surrender now, I might consider sparing your lives!"
Hearing Jiang Li's words, the leader resisted and sneered, "What a joke! Brothers, kill them!"
"Kill them all and we'll go back to collect our reward!"
They are real warriors, and Wu Youjin has always kept them by his side. Taking advantage of this war, Wu Youjin is determined to destroy the general's mansion.
Otherwise, he would not agree to cooperate with Qin Ji, a stray dog.
Isn’t it just to lure the tiger away from the mountain!
Seeing that they were about to be defeated, the leader took advantage of the situation and sent out another red signal.
Then, he looked at the brother who came with him and yelled, "Swallow the pill!"
After these words were spoken, Jiang Li was stunned for a moment, then stood up and looked at the people in the yard.
The group of people who seemed unable to hold on just now suddenly kicked the guards of the general's mansion away like Popeye who had eaten spinach.
"not good."
Although I don’t know what they ate, it must be something good that Wu Youjin’s grandson made.
"Mo Qi!"
Jiang Li called out, and Mo Qi quickly jumped down from the high wall and sprinkled the medicine powder he had prepared in advance.
Those who reacted slowly collapsed to the ground.
As for those who react quickly, they just cover their noses and fight alone.
The guards of the general's mansion had already taken the antidote, and they took advantage of the opportunity to quickly reverse the situation.
"Boss, why haven't they arrived yet?"
The few people who were still resisting stood together with their backs to each other, and one of them covered his nose and asked the leader.
The signal had already been sent out, and the people who were supposed to pick them up should have rushed in long ago.
The leader accidentally inhaled some medicine powder and was now distracted by a question from his subordinate.
He was slashed instantly.
"Wait a little longer, maybe he's on the way."
The master said that we are fully prepared this time and we will win no matter what.
"Wait? Are you waiting for me?"
Just as he finished speaking, the leader saw a woman with a machete on her back standing on the wall of the general's mansion.
The woman's red dress was as fiery as fire, and her long hair fluttered in the wind. Although she was beautiful, her appearance at this time and in this image made her look like a night ghost.
