Chapter 361 Wife, I was wrong, wife, don't be angry, let's not be angry.
When Xiao Su Bao noticed her master staring at her, she paused and said, "This temple seems a bit... dirty!"
While speaking, Xiao Su Bao secretly glanced at Wang Mingtian.
Tang Bugui paused, glanced around, and noticed that it was indeed a bit dirty. After all, with so many people here, it couldn't be that clean.
Wang Mingtian knew what Xiao Su Bao was talking about, and the direction the little girl had been looking in was also the direction he wanted to see.
"It is indeed a bit dirty. Your talent is truly exceptional!" Wang Mingtian was slightly excited, and his eyes also held a few emotions that others could not see.
Before Tang Bugui could speak, he heard exclamations from outside the temple.
"Help! Please, doctor, save my mother-in-law!" A woman with a dark complexion and wearing tattered clothes rushed in carrying a hunched old woman on her back.
She was very thin, but she moved extremely fast.
Before Wang Mingtian could even speak, several of the stronger women rushed over.
They skillfully separated the woman from her mother-in-law.
Two doctors rushed forward, their faces covered with thick face towels, their hands already slightly blackened.
"This old woman's symptoms are serious..."
"This woman's condition is milder; she's probably able to endure it longer because she's physically strong!"
The two doctors spoke at the same time.
Wang Mingtian nodded, then, after observing the expressions on the two men's faces, poured a bowl of medicine into the pot in front of them for each of them.
These medicines are mainly for various symptoms, totaling eight different types.
One of the pots was for prevention.
Some people with mild symptoms have already felt much better after taking the medicine.
Xiao Su Bao watched Wang Mingtian treat patients, and somehow, she subconsciously followed behind him.
It felt like I had returned to the time when I was with the mute old woman.
By the time they realized what was happening, half a day had already passed!
Tang Bugui was initially worried about the little dumpling, but seeing how skilled she was, he felt both heartache and self-reproach.
Fortunately, the little girl seemed to enjoy the process of saving people, and Tang Bugui breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Meanwhile, things were looking up on the assassins' situation. Since they were short-handed, Ling Buqi decided to come directly to them.
He felt a little jealous when he saw his general standing so obediently behind Xiao Su Bao.
"General!" He leaned closer and called out softly to Tang Bugui.
Tang Bugui didn't even turn his head, and replied indifferently, "Hmm!"
Ling Buqi...
Look at their general, so useless! She's just a daughter, what's so great about her...
"Brother Ling..."
Little Su Bao also heard Ling Buqi's voice and immediately turned her head, revealing a pair of crescent-shaped eyes to Ling Buqi.
"Hey, Brother Ling is here. Why did you come here, little general? If there's anything you need, you can just let the general do it. General, why don't you care about the little general at all..."
Ling Buqi subconsciously glared at his own general, then fawned over Xiao Su Bao.
He used one hand to fan Xiao Su Bao with a fan, while using the other hand to lift the medicine bucket from the little girl's hand.
"Ah... Su Bao isn't tired!" Little Su Bao was slightly taken aback by Ling Buqi's skillful movements and couldn't help but scratch her head.
She scratched her head, a hint of confusion in her eyes!
In the past, whenever she went to treat the mute old woman, she would follow behind her carrying the medicine box.
That medicine box was incredibly heavy, but she was strong. At first, she carried it on her shoulder, but later she dragged it along the ground.
Later, she carried it slowly.
Ling Buqi's eyelids twitched wildly. This wasn't even heavy; a whole bucket of medicinal soup—even he could feel the weight of it.
But the little baby in front of me...
"Mind your own business!" Tang Bugui stepped forward and reached out to his daughter.
Xiao Su Bao instinctively grabbed her father's hand. She turned to look at Brother Ling, wanting to say something, but Tang Bugui pulled her forward.
"You must be tired. Father has had some food prepared. Let's go and eat something first!"
Tang Bugui looked into his daughter's adorable eyes and couldn't help but smile.
Little Su Bao nodded and followed her father outside.
Before Ling Buqi could speak, Wang Mingtian said, "Quickly bring the medicine over!"
He glanced at his own general and Xiao Su Bao, then at Wang Mingtian, and followed Wang Mingtian with a somewhat unpleasant expression.
When did the General become so annoying?
He glanced at Xiao Su Bao again, his eyes pleading.
Honestly, it's just a little girl, and he...
He really wanted one too!
Ling Buqi pursed her lips and turned to get back to work.
Little Su Bao looked at Brother Ling's aggrieved expression, then at her father, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Tang Bugui looked at his daughter and couldn't help but lower his eyes.
Xiao Su Bao paused, quickly suppressing her smile, but a hint of amusement still lingered in her eyes.
Tang Bugui also smiled. As long as his daughter was happy, he was willing to do more of the things that made Xiao Lingzi happy.
"Achoo..." Ling Buqi, who was working, couldn't help but sneeze.
He rubbed his nose, about to speak, when he suddenly found himself alone beside him.
The patients who had been surrounding him to collect their medicine all looked at him in horror.
Even Wang Mingtian distanced himself from him.
"Drink a couple more bowls later," Wang Mingtian said decisively.
Ling Buqi...
Meanwhile, in Tangjia Village, the Empress and the Emperor had already arrived.
Upon receiving the news, the village did not allow them to enter directly, but instead settled them in a temporary thatched hut not far from the village.
"Madam, Master, please rest here for a while. I have had food prepared!" Madam Qian said to the Emperor and Empress.
The Empress had woken up. She touched her belly and found that the pain was gone. This was the most comfortable day she had had in a long time.
Hearing Qian's words, the Empress nodded and said, "Yes, you go ahead and do your work. We won't wander off."
The emperor wanted to say something, but the empress held him back, and he didn't say a word.
Thirty-eight children stood quietly to one side, each with one or two people standing beside them.
Butler Bai was originally going to go into town with Xiao Su Bao, but Madam Qian grabbed its neck in time.
That's how we prevented it from escaping.
As soon as Butler Bai returned, he let out a honking cry and ran outside.
Upon hearing Butler Bai's voice, the chickens, ducks, and geese in the village immediately started squawking, and soon a group of them appeared.
They followed behind Butler Bai, and then a flock of chickens, ducks, and geese ran to the back mountain.
Madam Qian's lips twitched slightly. Seeing the surprised looks on the Emperor and Empress's faces, she said, "This big white goose is the village bully. It's always been domineering. You two don't need to worry about it!"
The Queen found it interesting; she wondered if it was just her imagination, but she always felt that the animals in Tangjia Village seemed to have some kind of spirituality!
As the empress was thinking, she suddenly smelled a sweet fragrance and couldn't help but look up.
They were immediately stunned.
She hadn't looked closely before, but now, looking at the entrance of Tangjia Village, she saw a huge peach tree in bloom, bearing fruit, which looked quite unusual.
The emperor also looked over, his pupils contracted slightly, and his eyes showed disbelief.
He suddenly remembered the time he and his wife went to the royal ancestral hall.
He and the Empress exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with solemnity.
Is the world about to descend into chaos?
Otherwise, how could such an anomaly occur?
Both were deep in thought. The Empress touched her belly and turned to look at the Emperor.
If something were to happen to me, the emperor would surely go mad!
She dared not gamble, dared not gamble with the world!
"If something happens to me..." The Empress held the Emperor's hand and whispered in his ear.
Upon hearing this, the emperor's expression changed instantly. He gripped his wife's hand tightly and exclaimed, "It's alright, you'll definitely be fine!"
"Wife, if anything happens to you, I will..." He looked at the Empress, his lips moved slightly, but he did not say the rest of his words.
Just because...
The empress gripped the emperor's waist tightly with one hand.
He was in pain!
"Wife, I was wrong, wife, don't be angry, let's not be angry. The doctor said you are weak and can't get angry!" The emperor quickly grabbed the empress's hand and begged for forgiveness.
The Empress pursed her lips as she looked at the unperturbed Emperor, a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
If God wants to take her life, it won't be easy for her to live even if she wants to!
The Empress sighed, recalling what the fortune teller had once said.
When she was ten years old, an old Taoist priest suddenly came to her house. The old Taoist priest had a dignified and otherworldly air about him. He said that he had worked hard in the first half of his life, but in the end, his fate was extremely good and he was very fortunate.
However, due to her unfortunate fate, she was too frustrating. If she hadn't been blessed, she wouldn't have lived past thirty-eight, and this year she would have been thirty-eight.
She never spoke of this to the emperor, only fearing that he might go to extremes.
"Alright, how old are you? Why are you acting so childish!" the Empress said to the Emperor, sounding annoyed.
"Guards, cut down that peach tree!" The emperor turned to his guards and ordered.
Qian's expression changed slightly, and she suddenly became a little anxious.
The empress took a deep breath and raised her hand to pinch the soft flesh of the emperor's waist hard.
"My lord, be good, will you not cause any trouble?" The Empress pursed her lips and chuckled, then her gaze fell on the secret guards.
These people were all personally trained by her, and when they saw the Empress's gaze, they all became as obedient as quails.
The secret guards were originally in the city, but after learning that the emperor and empress had escaped, they ran out under the cover of night.
now……
Just play dead!
The emperor's face turned pale with pain, and the empress reached out and touched his face.
Then the Empress turned to the pale-faced Qian family and said, "Qian, don't worry, my husband was just saying that casually. This peach tree is really too magical. It's the first time I've ever seen one. I wonder if we can go and take a look?"
Lady Qian had been keeping her eyes on the Emperor and Empress, and upon hearing their words, she was quite frightened.
She learned about the identities of these two men from Sanpao.
If they want to cut down the peach tree, there's nothing we can do.
But her husband said before he died that this thousand-year-old peach tree represented their Tang family and must not be harmed.
Madam Qian secretly wiped the sweat from her brow and said to the Empress, "If you wish to see, Madam, please do so. The peaches are ripe now, and they taste absolutely delicious..."
After she finished speaking, she realized she had said something wrong, but the peaches were really delicious.
For some reason, the Queen felt very hungry and actually wanted to eat peaches.
"Wife, let me help you!" The emperor looked at his wife with a slightly ingratiating expression.
The empress did not refuse; she allowed the emperor to hold her hand.
Lady Qian stood to the side, watching the relationship between the Emperor and Empress, and couldn't help but feel a strange mix of emotions.
The emperor and empress walked side by side to the peach tree, their fingers intertwined. They looked at the swaying peach blossoms and the peaches hiding among them, finding it all quite peculiar.
The fragrance of peach blossoms and peaches wafts by, and the aroma is delightful.
"I'd like to eat these peaches, is that alright?" the Empress asked with a smile, looking at Lady Qian beside her.
Of course, Mrs. Qian would not refuse; she immediately nodded and said, "Of course!"
A bodyguard came over and picked three or five peaches.
“These peach fuzzes are prickly, so I had someone prepare some water,” Madam Qian said.
The guard nodded without saying a word and went to wash the peaches.
After washing it clean, he took a bite himself to make sure it was okay before giving it to the Emperor and Empress.
The Emperor and Empress each received one peach, but the peaches the secret guards gave the Empress were rather soft.
The queen took a small bite, and her eyes lit up instantly.
You know, she's been suffering from nausea lately and can't eat anything.
"These peaches taste wonderful!" The Queen smiled and couldn't help but take a few more bites.
Seeing his wife's expression, the emperor unconsciously wiped the peach on his body and took a bite.
The guard wanted to remind His Majesty that those were peaches he had washed himself, but in the end, he didn't say anything.
"Hmm, it's not bad!" he said, finishing the peach in a few bites.
The guard handed him another one, but this time he didn't eat it; he just held it in his hand and squeezed it.
Just as Ms. Qian was speaking, she heard a voice coming from outside.
"Village Chief's wife, something terrible has happened..." A woman rushed out in a hurry.
She didn't even see the Emperor and Empress, and ran straight towards Lady Qian.
Qian's eyelids twitched wildly, and she tried her best to signal to the woman with her eyes, but the woman didn't see any of it.
"Village Chief's wife, did you smash your eye? Is it cramping? Never mind, that's not important. What's wrong is that all the chickens, ducks, and geese have gone crazy. They've pulled up all the orchids on the back hill, and to make matters worse, they even put them on the oxcart!"
The woman patted her chest; this was the most terrifying scene she had ever witnessed.
Qian's eyelids twitched. Needless to say, it must have been her own steward, Bai, who was behind this.
How could she explain to the Emperor and Empress that neither their steward, Bai, nor the thousand-year-old peach tree had become spirits?
"If I told you that this was all an accident... Madam, Master, would you both believe me?"
Madam Qian turned her head and spoke dryly to the Emperor and Empress.
The Empress paused, then looked at Lady Qian and suddenly laughed.
This Mrs. Qian is quite interesting. She pursed her lips, about to speak, when she saw Butler Bai rushing towards them with something in his mouth.
The guards drew their swords in unison, watching Butler Bai warily.
