The cannon fodder of fast time travel has to struggle

Chapter 560

Chapter 560

It was night, someone fell in front of the woodshed door, and was quickly put in a sack and taken away.Repeat this until the next morning.

"Ma'am, it's not good, master...he's gone!"

Early in the morning, Xiao Liu hurried to the gate of the main courtyard to report to Ji Meiniang.

Xiang Wan accompanied Ji Meiniang at night and did not go back to his yard, so when he came out with Ji Meiniang, Xiao Liu was taken aback.

"Your master is fine, hurry up and prepare the tea soup, as well as pens and ink, there will be guests coming soon." Ji Meiniang said lightly.

"But..." Xiao Liu hesitated. He, a personal servant, didn't even know where his master had gone.The mistress's orders are important, but finding your own master is equally important.

"Xiao Liu, don't dawdle. When the guests come later, Daddy will naturally show up. If you don't go, be careful that you will be punished for being a waitress later." Xiang Wan urged.

"Yes, little one, let's go now, let's go now."

After leaving Xiao Liu, Xiang Wan and Meiniang Ji finished breakfast, changed into solemn clothes, and Shi Shiran came to the front hall.

The weather is good today, the clouds drift slowly across the sky, leaving a piece of blue, as if wiped with clean water.

At Xiang Wan's request, all the servants in the mansion changed into clean and tidy clothes.Yuan Xiqing and Cao Ruwan also arrived at the front hall early.

After waiting for less than a cup of tea, someone came to report that Uncle Ji's family had arrived.Then, the five elders of the Cao family and a clerk from the Fengquan City government all arrived and were invited to the front hall, where they each sat down and served tea.

Ji Pengyu has been back to the capital for almost two months, and the errand arrangement has not been released for a long time, and he is flustered in the mansion.It happened that Ji Meiniang invited him over, and he was alone.He didn't know, so he went in, but his sister invited him, so there was no reason not to come.

When I got here, I realized that my sister invited not only him, but also other people.Seeing that the atmosphere was not quite right, Ji Pengyu had a choice in his heart.The younger sister is single and weak, no matter what, she can't let the younger sister suffer.

Ji Meiniang was also calm and composed. After being polite with everyone, she looked at the door from time to time.

Everyone was puzzled, but they didn't ask much.Not long after, I saw Du Wei and Sun Taiyi, were invited in, and arranged to sit down and serve tea.

When everyone was here, Ji Meiniang got up, bowed her hands to everyone, and said, "I invite you to come here today, because I want you to be a witness to Meiniang. I, Ji Meiniang, owe Cao Xinqian nothing in this life. I am filial to my parents. Raising the children, managing the family diligently and frugally, the clear heart can be seen in the sky. But he, Cao Xinqian, betrayed me, humiliated me, bullied me and hurt me, and even violated the original oath, trying to get me out of court. Mei Niang self-examined, these years There is only one daughter under my knees, Xiangwan, and no boy was born. I am ashamed of the Cao family and my ancestors. Therefore, I accepted Aunt Yuan into the door and opened up branches and leaves for the Cao family. But recently, I found that I was wrong, a big mistake Wrong. It was him, Cao Xinqian, who deprived me of the hope of giving birth to a boy from the very beginning. Cutting off the opportunity for a woman to have a baby is like cutting off a life. This feud cannot be shared! Special, please come here today, and please support Mei Mother is in charge, and Cao Xinqian will never have any relationship with Cao Xinqian!"

"what?!"

Everyone was in an uproar, and Ji Pengyu was even more furious. He slammed his palm on the square table, almost splitting the table.He never expected that his own sister, who married Cao Xinqian wholeheartedly at the beginning, would end up in such a state!Being unable to have children, in this era, is killing people!If he didn't come back, would my sister be tortured to death by that beast?

"Uncle, don't worry, please listen to what mother has to say first!"

Xiang Wan hurriedly pulled Ji Pengyu to sit down, fearing that his impulsiveness would ruin things.

The clan elders who came to the Cao Mansion had received Ji Meiniang's favor when Ji Meiniang and Cao Xinqian returned home to worship their ancestors, so they didn't immediately object. They only asked, "Ji, do you have evidence for what you said?"

Ji Meiniang said: "If there is no proof, Meiniang would not invite everyone here today. Come, invite the master!"

Cao Xinqian, who was awakened by a cup of tea, had nowhere to vent his anger.As soon as he was invited over, his eyes were all on Ji Meiniang's indifferent face, and he immediately became angry, "Ji Meiniang, what kind of trick are you playing? If you dare to do this to me again, go back to Ji's house!" "

"Cao Xinqian, you bastard!"

Ji Pengyu jumped up from his chair and punched Cao Xinqian on the bridge of the nose.Before he could fight again, he was stopped by the crowd.

"Ji Pengyu, do you dare to beat the imperial court official? Believe it or not, I will send you to prison?" Cao Xinqian covered his nose with resentment on his face.

"I don't think you can be an official like you for long. If you want to go to prison, you will be taken with you!"

Before Jin Pengyu could fight again, he was stopped by his servants.

Knowing early in the morning to guard against such a situation, those who were called to serve in the front hall were all strong servants.

Ji Meiniang's eyes were red, and she had never felt the security of being protected by her elder brother like now.

After Cao Xinqian was punched, he came to his senses and saw a lot of people coming in the front hall, he immediately suppressed his uneasiness, and said to everyone, "Clan elders, everyone, come to my Cao residence today, is there something wrong? "

The corners of everyone's mouths twitched, they had never seen their wives want to be righteous, and the person concerned still looked confused.

Ji Meiniang didn't give him a chance to ask, and directly said to Sun Taiyi and Du Wei: "Meiniang has something in her hand, please distinguish it carefully."

The powder was found from the place where Wang Ma dumped it, and some herbs were found from Er Fu's house.Each of the two took a copy, and after careful screening, they exchanged checks.

Seeing this, Cao Xinqian's expression changed.

"Miniang Ji, where did you get these messy things?"

Ji Meiniang didn't speak, quietly waiting for the results of Sun Taiyi and Du Wei.

After the two inspected, they looked at each other, and the doctor Sun said: "Ma'am, this is the motherwort of the country of Fei. In my country of Cui, few people grow it. This kind of grass grows in cold places. It blooms twice a year. It is white, and the fruit is red. When it blooms again, the color of the flowers and fruits will be reversed. The name of motherwort is derived from this. The flowers and fruits of this grass can be used as medicine to treat infertility. But its stems and leaves , but it is poisonous. Short-term use can prevent pregnancy. Long-term use can lead to lifelong infertility."

After Dr. Sun finished speaking, Du Wei added: "This herb is not very toxic. After taking it for a short period of time, as long as you stop eating, it will be detoxified on its own without any harm to the body. But if you take it for a long time, for more than two years, it will cause symptoms." The body's functions decline. You won't get common colds and coughs. But once you get a serious illness, your life will be in danger. If you take it for more than ten years, the toxicity reaches deep into the organs. There is no antidote in the world."

"Ask Imperial Physician Sun and Doctor Du to diagnose and treat me."

Before Cao Xinqian could speak, Ji Meiniang stretched out her wrist and asked Imperial Physician Sun to draw blood directly with a silver needle.Du Wei looked surprised and admired. Because of the prejudice against this method, few people were willing to try it.

Doctor Sun nodded, prepared a bowl of water with medicine, then took a drop of blood from Ji Meiniang's fingertip, and dropped it into the bowl.

The blood condensed in the bowl, and in the blink of an eye, it changed from bright red to black.

Du Lang took out a square handkerchief, put it on Ji Meiniang's wrist, and felt her pulse.Then, Dr. Sun will make a follow-up visit.

"My wife has been poisoned for at least 12 years."

Physician Sun and Du Wei's diagnosis results were similar, and everyone's expressions changed.

"For the sake of fairness, I invite the two doctors to take Cao Xinqian's pulse together."

As soon as Ji Meiniang finished speaking, Cao Xinqian's body was controlled by Ji Pengyu.

Staying in the frontier all year round, Ji Pengyu's physical fitness is naturally not comparable to that of Cao Xinqian, who is fine-skinned and tender.

Cao Xinqian was pressured for pulse diagnosis, and finally came up with a result of insufficient energy and excess yin deficiency, that is to say, he was too indulgent and his body had been hollowed out.

They are all men, how can they not understand these things?The yamen servant showed contempt for Cao Xinqian, but his pen was not idle, and he recorded everything that happened here one by one.

"Ji Meiniang, what do you mean?"

His physical condition was laid bare in front of everyone, and Cao Xinqian felt a little uneasy, and vented his anger by asking questions.

How could Ji Pengyu allow him to be presumptuous?As soon as he raised his fist, Cao Xinqian immediately silenced his flag and drums.

Knowing that the elders of the Cao family had some questions, Xiang Wan clapped his hands, and Wang Ma was brought up.

After being locked up all night without any water in, Wang Ma's face was pale. When she saw Ji Meiniang, a light flashed in her eyes, but when she saw Cao Xinqian, she was only happy.

"Xinqian, are you here to pick me up? You said that as long as Ji Meiniang can't have a child, she will treat Tianbao as her own. I will keep the token you gave me. Tianbao is very smart and sensible. , I will definitely be able to carry forward the Cao Mansion in the future, Xinqian..."

"Crazy woman! What nonsense are you talking about? Come here, drag this old woman down..." Cao Xinqian was extremely angry and kicked Wang Ma to the ground.

"Xinqian, you can't treat me like this! You said that as long as Ji Meiniang marries, her dowry will be the capital for us to grow the Cao Mansion. And Yuan Xiqing, we can all be with you..."

"brute!"

Ji Pengyu couldn't bear it anymore, and his fists rained down on Cao Xinqian, wishing he could kill him with a knife.

Ji Meiniang's eyes were red, and her body fell backwards involuntarily. She was supported by Xiang Wan and sat on a chair.

At this time, Ji Meiniang can't fall, and Cao Xinqian can't have anything to do.

"Uncle, where is the token that Mrs. Wang mentioned? You send someone to look for it, and I will accompany my mother."

Hearing this, Ji Pengyu stopped.

As for Cao Xinqian, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and he couldn't recognize his original appearance.

Yuan Xiqing supported her belly with both hands, and with Cao Ruwan's support, she silently retreated to the farthest chair and sat down.
