[Is this true? Boss Mo, please don't lie to me. My tiny body weighing only two taels can't handle this!]
[By the way, Mr. Mo, you look really cool like this. Even more handsome than Lu Hongxuan.]
Su Qiqi stared at Mo Yunchi and couldn't help but become infatuated with him.
Feeling someone's fiery gaze, Mo Yunchi subconsciously raised his head and glanced at Su Qiqi.
What's wrong with this little girl? Her eyes are so weird, and she's drooling...
Lu Hongxuan curled his lips: "Little girl, if you like Master, then just like him. Why are you comparing him to me? He's handsome too!"
"Qiqi was not injured this time, and there was no Qiqi's blood on the talisman paper." Shen Mingyue's tone calmed down.
The emperor was still a little worried: "Yunchi, what do you need to prepare? Talisman paper? Cinnabar? Or willow branches?"
Lu Hongxuan also asked: "Master, is Qiqi going to drink those weird folk remedies again?"
Everyone stared at Mo Yunchi, glaring at him as he explained and made arrangements.
Su Qiqi even clasped her hands together and began to pray: [Please, God, let me go. I really don't want to take the medicine anymore.]
[It's okay to take medicine, but please don't let me be entangled by bad luck anymore. I just want to live for two more days!]
Mo Yunchi looked at Su Qiqi and smiled dotingly: "Qiqi, our Qiqi, just needs to eat well and sleep well, and wait and watch the show happily."
"Wow!" Su Qiqi exclaimed, and said slowly with a silly smile: "Yeah, brother~"
The sweet voice made Mo Yunchi feel like his heart was melting.
He cheerfully put away the talisman paper, walked over and pinched Su Qiqi's chubby little face: "Shout again."
Su Qiqi tilted her head and smiled, saying crisply: "Brother~"
"Hey hey hey! Why call me brother? I am your brother. Yunchi is my master. Qiqi, you can't call him brother. You have to call him master like me."
Lu Hongxuan ran over and talked nonsense seriously.
Su Qiqi rolled her eyes at him and looked at Mo Yunchi again: "Brother~"
Lu Hongxuan was depressed, and everyone in the room laughed when they saw this.
After a while, Mo Yunchi asked, "Aunt, it's better to use the same kind of water for Qiqi's bathing instead of ordinary hot water."
Shen Mingyue nodded and said, "Don't worry about that. It has never been changed. Qiqi washes her hair and bathes in water soaked with mugwort and red willow branches, and the moisturizer she puts on her face is also made with dew that has not touched the ground."
Hearing this, Mo Yunchi nodded with satisfaction: "That's good. Also, please ask Auntie to send someone to prepare a black snake, a black fish, a turtle, a black chicken, and a crow. I need these five things tomorrow."
Lu Hongxuan asked in confusion, "What do you want these things for? To make soup?"
"You only know how to eat." Mo Yunchi glanced at Lu Hongxuan with disgust.
Lu Hongxuan said aggrievedly: "Then, what are you going to do? Do you need my help?"
Mo Yunchi sneered, "Hmph, I will make those who dare to have bad intentions towards Qiqi suffer untold tortures, making their lives worse than death."
He regretted it.
He originally just wanted to do it casually and then burn the talisman paper.
The talisman paper did not work and was destroyed instead. The person who intended to borrow Su Qiqi's luck and life through the talisman paper would definitely not succeed, and would suffer the backlash and die.
But this is not satisfying.
Such a good Su Qiqi, the Su Qiqi they protected in their palms, the Su Qiqi he raised with his heart's blood...
I'm actually being remembered by someone else.
How dare those idiots?
He was determined to make those people pay the most painful price, making them wish they could neither live nor die!

The next morning, the emperor brought Su Qiqi to the court again.
Su Qiqi was already used to it. She simply lay in the cradle, crossed her legs, and slowly played with the ivory ghost ball in her hands.
Sometimes she marveled at the exquisite craftsmanship of the ancients; sometimes she wondered how much this ingenious ball would sell for in modern times; sometimes she wondered when her teeth would grow in completely, and when she could climb over the wall and wander the world...
When the emperor heard Su Qiqi's nagging, he couldn't help but frown.
The little girl wants to run away again! Yeah, that's right, but don't get stuck in the palace.
We need to find a suitable master to teach her martial arts, otherwise it will be troublesome if she can't climb over the wall smoothly and falls and hurts her legs.
While listening to the reports from civil and military officials, the emperor made a secret decision.
"The nation is safe and sound, and the people are well, thanks to the Emperor's contributions to the country. Now that the Emperor is in his prime, it is unsuitable for the harem to be empty. I believe that we should prepare for the imperial selection as soon as possible, recruiting talented and capable people so that the imperial family can flourish and expand."
In the hall, a civil servant said.
Another civil servant stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the royal heir is the foundation of the state. I believe that selecting concubines and expanding the family line is the most urgent task at hand."
Another civil servant knelt down and said, "I beg the Emperor to recruit talented people."
Su Qiqi raised her eyebrows: [Oh, so there was also pressure to get married in ancient times?]
The emperor said with a cold face: "There are concubines and princes in the harem, Xu Aiqing, why are you so anxious?"
Lord Xu said, "Your Majesty! With so few heirs, how can you shoulder the great responsibility of the nation at this critical moment? If you had more princes and princesses, they would be able to share your worries and difficulties, allowing you to enjoy family happiness."
Su Qiqi shook her head and complained:
[Haha, raising a son is not like raising a pig! This thing is about quality, not quantity!]
Raising a well-behaved, intelligent, and resourceful son brings a lifetime of joy and pride. Raising ninety-nine stupid, vicious, and foolish children can drive a person crazy!
[Do you understand the saying "better to be alone than to have something of inferior quality"? Have you ever heard of eugenics and good parenting?]
[Giving birth to a bunch of emotionless children with someone you don't love, then letting them fight and waste time while you have to be wary of their ambitions... This isn't responsibility, it's a horrible and foolish selfish desire!]
