Chapter 201 Cannon Fodder Lady's Counterattack 18
Her straightforward attitude made the emperor burst into laughter, and then he began to cough again. "Alright! There's no other way now. If you can really save my life, I'll reward you handsomely."
It's not that he is naive and trusts Luo An so easily, but his own body knows that the poison he was poisoned with this time is very strong, and whether he can survive is probably just a matter of two days.
Although he was told to make a choice, this was actually the only option left for him. It would take an unknown amount of time for those guys from the Imperial Hospital to come up with a way to detoxify him. Besides, they were not necessarily trustworthy. They might have been bribed long ago and were just trying to kill him.
"Your Majesty! This is unacceptable! The fourth son's wife has never studied medicine, and now she's got something she claims is an antidote. You can't just take it!"
"Father, Queen Mother is thinking about you. Let's wait a little longer. Maybe the doctors will find a solution."
The Empress and the Crown Prince were anxious to interrupt the Emperor's thoughts, but they didn't realize that the more anxious they were, the more determined the Emperor would be to take the antidote. "What do you mean, Empress and Crown Prince? Do you want me to die so you can take the throne?"
It was one thing to think so in one's heart, but it was another to hear the emperor say it so bluntly. Both of them looked very unhappy, and they had to keep defending themselves, "Your Majesty, what are you talking about? Of course I hope you live a long life. This is the greatest blessing for our Great Xiao Kingdom."
"Father, I only wish you good health and a long life. As long as you are well, I am willing to shorten my life by any number of years."
The emperor sneered in his heart. Although he could only lie in bed now, he had already asked Fu Hai to find out about the recent events. His other sons could not see anything for the time being, but the prince definitely had ulterior motives. He invited court ministers to drink and dine from time to time. Who would believe that there was no trick?
Therefore, the queen and her son made more mistakes than they spoke, especially in preventing the emperor from taking the medicine.
"Fu Hai, give me the medicine."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Fu Hai took the box and carefully checked the water in the cup to make sure there was no problem before giving the emperor the medicine.
At this moment, everyone's heart was in their throat.
Concubine Rou tugged at her son's sleeve and asked, "Is she really that good?"
Xiao Heng shook his head. He had checked a lot of things recently but hadn't found anything useful. However, the poison in Xiao Yu's body was suddenly cured. As to whether it was Luo An who did it, he didn't know.
Concubine Rou frowned and lowered her voice, "If there is any problem, you must immediately distance yourself from her, understand?"
Xiao Heng lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "Son, I understand."
Even though Xiao Yu is his only son, he is still the most important. As for Luo An and his mother, he can abandon them at any time.
Time passed minute by minute, and the emperor's face gradually turned rosy from pale in just half an incense stick of time.
At this time, everyone looked at Luo An with different eyes.
So many imperial doctors were helpless, but she, a mere woman, cured the poison in just five days. This had never happened in this dynasty, not to mention the previous dynasty.
"As expected of the daughter raised by Minister Luo, she's really quite good!"
Feeling the changes in his body, the emperor was so happy that he started to praise.
Everyone cast envious glances at Luo An, but Luo An felt nothing. "It seems I can save my life."
The emperor saw that she was neither humble nor arrogant, neither timid nor proud, and he looked up to her even more. "Reward, a generous reward."
As his voice fell, a bunch of things that were out of reach for everyone fell into Luo An's hands, which made the women present jealous. However, they had no choice but to be jealous, because they didn't have that kind of ability.
"Father, I have a request."
"explain!"
"My son Xiao Yu is now over nine years old, but unfortunately he has never received a formal education."
After the words fell, the emperor's expression changed and his eyes fell on Xiao Heng in the crowd, "Fourth Brother, what's going on?"
The moment Luo An opened his mouth, Xiao Heng guessed the outcome. He glared at Luo An fiercely before replying, "Father, Xiao Yu has been weak since childhood. I'm worried that his studies will overwhelm him, so I haven't made any arrangements."
The emperor had already inquired about the matter of Fu Hailuoan and his mother, and of course he did not believe what Xiao Heng said, but he was his beloved son after all, so after thinking about it, he said nothing.
"Fourth daughter-in-law, I will help you arrange the teacher's affairs, don't worry."
"Thank you, Father."
Seeing that Luo An really saved the emperor, Xiao Heng had long thrown away his previous idea of ​​distancing himself from the matter. He listened happily to the conversation between the emperor and Luo An. When he learned that Luo An had a secret master and was secretly learning from him, he did not suspect much.
Seeing the prince's face as dark as ink, he was even more proud. After this incident, was he still afraid that his father would not use him? Sooner or later, he would sit on the throne of the prince.
Of course the prince would not ignore his intensely aggressive look. He was thinking about how to arrange the next things and had to engage in an eye contact battle with Xiao Heng.
Luo An brought Xiao Yu back to the palace, followed by a team of guards and several carriages filled with rewards from the emperor. They attracted countless people's attention along the way, and Luo An's great achievements were also spread by word of mouth. Soon, everyone in the capital knew what happened in the palace.
"Minister Luo is a good official, and his daughter isn't much worse."
"She's so lucky! She married the prince and now she's caught the emperor's eye. She doesn't have to worry about her future at all."
"What do you know? Minister Luo didn't want to marry his daughter into the royal family at all, fearing that he wouldn't be able to protect her. But who knew that when those people in the palace fought, Miss Luo would suffer. I heard she's suffered a lot in the past few years."
......
There are many rumors. Luo An, who has always had little presence, has now become popular in the capital, and Xiao Yu has also become popular.
It is said that the emperor tested Xiao Yu's knowledge, and the self-taught Xiao Yu was actually smarter than those carefully trained princes.
I heard that the young prince Xiao Yu was murdered in the past. In order to cure her son's illness, the Fourth Lady stayed in the mansion and devoted herself to studying, which led to her current stunning success.
Inside the palace.
Tong had a miscarriage a few days ago and finally managed to survive. Now she could only lie in bed and listen to the noise outside. "Mammy, what happened outside? Why is it so noisy?"
