Chapter 413 I am worried about General Jin
In theory, what happened in the court had nothing to do with her, but He Zhiran still wanted to know the details.
"Mother, since the Emperor has already sent people to find a master who can remove the poison, does that mean that the Ninth Prince has been exposed?"
Seeing that her daughter was interested, Mrs. He told her what she knew.
"After Jiuye saved your father that day, he didn't immediately go to the palace to expose the matter. Instead, he went home to discuss it with your eldest brother."
He Zhiran could not deny this. In the original owner's memory, her elder brother was very talented and his analysis of things was more thorough than He Yuanming's. Therefore, it was not surprising that her father went back to discuss with her elder brother.
Mrs. He continued.
"Your eldest brother meant that this matter was of great importance. Since the Ninth Prince could do such a big thing, he must have planned a way out in advance. Moreover, your father did not have any evidence of the Ninth Prince's rebellion when he returned from the Ninth Prince's Mansion.
Therefore, your eldest brother advised your father to wait and see.
Of course, this wait-and-see attitude does not necessarily mean hiding at home and not going out. We still need to grasp the direction of things as soon as possible and respond to changes with constancy.
At the same time, your father also thought of his own way out. He went to the Ninth Prince's Mansion to celebrate his birthday, but the Ninth Prince's plan failed. The Ninth Prince will definitely bear a grudge, and once his rebellion succeeds, he will definitely target your father.
We have even made plans to leave the capital."
He Zhiran became more and more interested as he listened, and asked, "Mother, what happened next? How did the Ninth Prince get caught?"
"This is all thanks to Prince Qi. Not long after your father returned, he heard the sound of horse hooves outside. It turned out that Prince Qi had executed the enemy first and then reported to the emperor, leading his army to surround the Ninth Prince's Palace.
It was unknown who gave him the idea, but Prince Qi was afraid that the Ninth Prince would escape secretly, so he led people into the palace to capture him first.
It is said that when Prince Qi entered the Ninth Prince's Palace, General Jin, the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, and the Left Prime Minister had already lost consciousness and were sitting in their chairs in a daze. No matter what others did, they did not react at all.
I heard from your father that Jiuye informed Mr. Fei about this matter, and Prince Qi also knew that these people were poisoned by Gu, and they became important evidence of the Ninth Prince's rebellion.
With the evidence, Prince Qi immediately went to the palace to report the matter to the emperor. The emperor issued an imperial decree to arrest all the people in the Ninth Prince's Mansion and handed the matter over to Prince Qi to handle.
How could Prince Qi give up such an opportunity to make merit?
What's more, what the Ninth Prince did posed a great threat to him, and he could not easily forgive those who were involved in this matter.
Later, after severe interrogation, we learned that the Ninth Prince had been hiding his power for many years, just to avoid the spotlight and wait for the right time to strike. Who would have thought that Jiuye had accidentally resolved the situation."
Speaking of this, Mrs. He felt that her son-in-law was more and more outstanding. If he had not appeared, not to mention the change of the Dashun Dynasty, even their He family would probably be doomed to be broken up.
In fact, He Zhiran didn't know that after Fei Nanyu reported the matter to King Qi, King Qi took a closer look at him, and now his day of success was getting closer and closer.
She continued to ask, "How did Emperor Shunwu deal with the Ninth Prince?"
"After the truth was revealed, the Emperor immediately ordered the execution of the entire Ninth Prince's family."
As for punishing nine generations of his clan, forget it, after all, Emperor Shunwu was also among his nine generations of clans.
After talking about the Ninth Prince's rebellion, the mother and daughter chatted about some other things. He Zhiran saw that his mother looked sleepy and knew that it was because she had not had enough rest due to the long journey.
So she let her mother rest for a while, and she went to find Mo Jiuye and told him what she learned from her mother.
After hearing this, Mo Jiuye did not seem as relaxed as He Zhiran looked.
He Zhiran knew his temperament very well and asked, "Husband, do you feel something is wrong?"
There was indeed something wrong with Mo Jiuye, and the reason was not because of the situation in the court, but because of General Jin.
General Jin has always had a special relationship with the Mo family. He has been through life and death with my father many times. If my father knew that General Jin was poisoned, I am afraid he would not stand idly by.
"I'm worried about General Jin, he's my father's good brother."
He Zhiran had just thought of this matter. She didn't know the friendship between General Jin and Mo Qing. She only knew that General Jin not only helped them a lot on the road to exile, but also gave them a large sum of money.
He Zhiran is also a person who knows how to be grateful. Just for this reason, she doesn't want anything to happen to General Jin.
"Husband, why don't you go to the capital yourself?"
After hearing He Zhiran's words, Mo Jiuye subconsciously looked at her huge belly.
"No, you're going to give birth in a little over a month. I can't leave now."
Although his wife's due date was still more than a month away, he would surely be able to return in a month if he rode quickly to the capital.
But his wife was pregnant with twins. When he was learning about caesarean sections, he read in a book that twins are prone to premature birth.
If his wife went into labor prematurely and he was not around, and something unexpected happened, he would probably never be able to forgive himself in his life.
He Zhiran was also aware of his situation, and it was indeed not a wise move to let Mo Jiuye leave now.
But there is only one way to remove the poison except using modern medicine to perform surgery.
That is to use the mother Gu to attract the baby Gu out.
Of course, this also requires someone who understands witchcraft to perform it, and ordinary people cannot do it.
When a couple talks about such private matters, they are used to doing so in a private space.
It happened that at this time Fantuan was chasing Xiaobai and playing in the open space.
"Husband, can you ask Xiaobai to go to the capital and deliver a message to Fei Nanyu, asking him to keep an eye on General Jin's situation?"
Mo Jiuye didn't quite understand what his wife meant.
"There's no problem letting Xiaobai deliver the letter, but it won't help General Jin get rid of the poison at all."
Seeing Mo Jiuye's silly look, He Zhiran couldn't help laughing.
"Send Xiaobai to the capital. Make sure to write clearly in the letter that if General Jin is still alive, then Xiaobai should stay in the capital temporarily until Emperor Shunwu summons someone to remove the poison."
There was a reason why she asked Xiaobai to deliver the letter to Fei Nanyu instead of to her father and brother.
He Yuanming had been an official for many years and never participated in the intrigues in the court. Therefore, when the entire Mohist family was confiscated and exiled, He Yuanming, as a relative of the Mohist family, was not implicated.
If he sent the letter to his father, he would have to get involved in all this, and might even be suspected by Emperor Shunwu of colluding with the people of southern Xinjiang.
After all, when it comes to removing the poison from those people in the future, Mo Jiuye will send Xiaobai to deliver the mother poison over.
He Yuanming held three poisonous insects in his hands. If this aroused the suspicion of Emperor Shunwu, he would never be able to clear himself of this injustice even if he jumped into the Yellow River.
