Chapter 456: The Wife-Indulging Devil King x The Useless Third Miss 25
It is hard to describe the life of Aunt Qiao now. She has to go through the procedures to have a palace...
"Pa" Qiao Jinjin put a porcelain bottle forcefully on Xiao Mohan's table, looked into Xiao Mohan's eyes and said, "Your Majesty, I want to leave the palace"
Xiao Mohan raised his eyebrows. She was really angry. She didn't even call him husband.
"Who made my queen angry?"
Qiao Jinjin simply couldn't believe how shameless Xiao Mohan was. "How dare you say that? It's you who caused it. Why don't you let me leave the palace?"
“I haven’t been to the association for a long time.”
Xiao Mohan put away the smile on his face and said, "Auntie, there have been many people who have gone astray in the capital recently. I am afraid that if you leave the palace, someone will hurt you. What should I do?"
"Being possessed?" Jin Jin Qiao's eyes were full of doubt, as if she had not paid much attention to things outside the palace in the past two months. But it was really strange that so many people were possessed.
"Husband, do you think they were poisoned? Or controlled? It's impossible for so many people to be possessed at the same time."
"How about my husband send someone to catch a possessed person so I can take a look?"
Xiao Mohan still had doubts, and he was unwilling to let Qiao Jinjin step forward even if there was the slightest danger.
"Your Majesty, a senior pharmacist wants to see you. He says he can cure the people in the capital who are possessed by demons."
Xiao Mohan and Qiao Jinjin looked at each other. It was too strange that a senior pharmacist who appeared out of nowhere was now helping them deal with things.
"Changfeng, go and ask this senior alchemist to come over."
Aunt Qiao pursed her lips and said, "Husband, this couldn't be the senior pharmacist who has been missing for more than ten years, right?"
Xiao Mohan lowered his eyes, thought for a while and said, "Whether it is true or not, you will know when you see it."
Having said that, when they actually saw the man and woman in front of them, not only Xiao Mohan but even Qiao Jinjin were stunned.
Aunt Qiao walked up to the two of them in amazement, circled around them three times, and exclaimed, "Could it be that you are my parents?"
Yue Jiao and Qiao Xue both had tears in their eyes, especially Qiao Xue. As far as she could remember, the last time she saw her daughter was when she was one year old.
"Aunt, I am your mother. You must have suffered a lot over the years."
Aunt Qiao turned to look at Xiao Mohan, then looked at the gentle man beside Qiao Xue. "Are you really my father? The senior pharmacist who has been missing for more than ten years?"
Yue Jiao nodded and looked at Jin Jin Qiao with eyes full of pity.
"Yes, I am Daddy"
Aunt Qiao snorted and said, "I don't doubt what you say. You look exactly like me."
"But what have you been doing all these years? You left me alone to fend for myself in the Duke's Mansion. You are truly cruel and ruthless."
Xiao Mohan also looked coldly at this unqualified pair of parents, wanting them to give an explanation.
Qiao Xue was speechless. She had been asleep for so long that she knew nothing at all.
Yue Jiao patted Qiao Xue's hand soothingly and said, "Let me tell you."
"Eighteen years ago, your mother was kidnapped by thieves in order to protect you, and I was chased and fell into the Demon Cave."
"Your mother's personal maid concealed her identity and married Duke Wen in order to protect you."
"In order to obtain the panacea pill from the maid, Duke Wen agreed to let the maid bring her aunt into the house."
"But when my aunt was three years old, the maid was murdered."
"I also saw my aunt's appearance at a martial arts competition half a year ago, and then I knew the whereabouts of my daughter."
Aunt Qiao frowned and asked, "Then how did you find mother?"
Yue Jiao smiled faintly and said, "I was trapped in the Ten Thousand Demons Cave for eight years and was rescued by the Third Prince of Namo by chance."
"Later, I kept asking about Xue'er and Jinjin's whereabouts."
"Your mother has been in a coma for so many years, being..."
Yue Jiao glanced at Xiao Mohan, and it was this glance that made Xiao Mohan realize that this matter might be related to him or someone around him.
"Father-in-law, please speak frankly."
Yue Jiao said fiercely, "Jinjin's mother was hidden in the secret room of the bedroom by your father, but Xue'er has been sleeping for so many years and only woke up a few days ago."
"Tongzi, this is too ridiculous."
[Host, this is really ridiculous. Your biological parents have come to you on their own initiative. Do you recognize them?]
"Since they didn't do it on purpose, and it seems like it's been quite hard for this stepfather to find someone, let's see how they perform."
Xiao Mohan said guiltily, "I'm sorry, I didn't know about this."
Yue Jiao waved her hands and said, "I don't mean to blame you, otherwise I wouldn't have let my aunt marry you."
"I've been keeping an eye on you guys for a long time. Seeing that you treat my aunt very well, I have no objection to my aunt marrying you."
Xiao Mohan finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that the father-in-law and mother-in-law who suddenly appeared would take his wife away.
"My father-in-law said you can handle those who are possessed?"
Yue Jiao took a sip of tea and said, "Yes, those people are not really possessed, they are poisoned by a poison called Demon Pill."
"And the person who poisoned him was the Prince of Lingnan."
"Fuck!" Qiao Jinjin blurted out a curse word without knowing it. Seeing that everyone turned their eyes to her, she said guiltily, "It was a slip of the tongue."
"What is Prince Lingnan doing? Isn't he tired of always causing trouble for us Tianwu?"
Xiao Mohan waved to Qiao Jinjin, and when Qiao Jinjin came closer, he said, "He has always wanted to get the Nine Nether Token in my hand. I guess this is his purpose."
When Yue Jiao heard about the Nine Nether Token, his eyes flashed and he said, "So you are the Nine Nether King."
Xiao Mohan nodded and said, "Few people know this identity. There is a traitor from Jiuyou by the side of this Lingnan Prince."
"Father-in-law, what materials are needed for the elixir to cure the demonic poison? I will ask someone to prepare them. You two elders can stay in the palace for a few days."
Aunt Qiao nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, stay for a few days. It's a good opportunity for me to see my father's demeanor when he is refining medicine."
Aunt Qiao originally thought that watching others make medicine was a very interesting thing, but when it really came to this, she found it was so boring.
Especially for the great senior alchemist in the eyes of others, one medicine furnace only produced five pills, and it took two days to refine these pills. So many people were poisoned by the devil, how long will it take to detoxify them?
"Dad, let me make the antidote."
Yue Jiao looked at Aunt Qiao with relief and said, "Aunt Qiao is the one who still cares about her father."
Aunt Qiao was very upset. Could she say that she was dissatisfied because Qiyue Jiao's refining process was too slow?
It took Yue Jiao two days to refine a batch of elixirs, but Qiao Jinjin only took one night to refine a batch. Yue Jiao's eyes widened in surprise. She didn't look as gentle and jade-like as her at all.
"Is that it?"
Yue Jiao walked to the medicine furnace, smelled the aroma, and exclaimed, "Just by smelling it, I know that the quality of the medicine made by my aunt is much better than the one made by my father."
After Yue Qiao finished speaking, she opened the medicine furnace. When she saw the seventeen pills neatly arranged, she was almost scared to death.
