The fierce wife of space

Chapter 508

"Is there any movement in the capital? The team looking for medicine should have arrived where it should be!"

Li Rongtai asked about the capital again, because Ouyang Jian hadn't sent a letter recently, it is conceivable that the situation in the capital should be quite bad, otherwise, even if there is nothing to do in the capital, he would send letters from time to time .

Firstly, it was because he wanted Li Rongtai to know a little bit about the trend of the capital, and he also said some miscellaneous things in the letter, explaining about Alian's business in the capital, and the shop left by the Li family in the capital.

"The person looking for the medicine has already arrived, but it seems that it is difficult to find the person who gave the medicine to Princess Anning back then. People in the imperial palace of the capital are in panic. The princes are now dispatching troops. The subordinates have heard that the emperor seems to be lying on the dragon bed for a long time. It seems that It's sick."

As soon as An An mentioned the things in the palace, his voice became softer, but what he said could indeed make the listener's heart tremble.

"Princess Anning's medicine is probably in the hands of very secretive people. Even if they really want to get the medicine, I'm afraid it will take some twists and turns. There is no accident in the palace!" Of course Li Rongtai knows that the antidote is not so easy You can get it, because Princess Anning will definitely not let them find it so easily.

But the most important thing now is that no one in the palace knows whether they have been poisoned or not. After all, the poison has an incubation period, and even the emperor cannot be sure whether his body has been poisoned.

"The prince born to the queen seems to be dying, and the imperial doctors seem to have no way to restrain the poison he has been poisoned by."

Li Rongtai was silent for a while, waved his hand, An Yi sneaked into the darkness, the queen's daughter died, and now her son is about to die, he also expected this, if he didn't get the antidote, the queen's child would die The prince is sure to die.

No matter how much the imperial doctors tried to save the prince's life, there was probably no way, because the imperial doctors could not prescribe an antidote, at most they could only prescribe a medicine to delay the onset of this poison.

When Gu Lian was inside the house, she saw that the light was still on, and thought that he was going to stay up late to do things, so she went to his door and knocked.

"Qinglian, go to bed earlier, don't stay up late, would you like to drink some soup to warm your body?"

There is no kang to sit on in the study room, and the study room is full of books, so it would be a bit unattractive to use the kang.

Li Rongtai opened the door and saw her standing outside, his originally frowning brows relaxed, but when he saw that she just came towards the target, the expression on his face became rigid again.

"Why did you only miss the target? How do the maids in your house serve you?"

When Li Rongtai got angry, the maids naturally didn't dare to say anything, and all of them knelt on the ground with pale faces. Li Rongtai usually has very little expression, and when he is angry, it can make people feel more stressed.

In addition, Li Rongtai often saw blood when he was around the emperor, so when he got angry, everyone felt a kind of evil spirit rushing towards their faces.

"Master, forgive me." The smart girls all know that it is best not to say anything else at this moment.

"Okay, don't be angry. It's none of their business. I was too anxious. I saw that the light here was still on. I was afraid that you would stay up late so I just took off my shoes and came here. I just wanted to ask you a question." I just went back, I didn't think about staying here for long."

Seeing that he was angry, Gu Lian stuck out her tongue coquettishly, took his hand and the two of them went back to the room with the heated kang. The study room was still a bit cold, even if there was a charcoal basin, but there is no place here. So comfortable and warm.

"If you want to read letters in the future, you can just come here to read them. You have to go to the study. It's so cold. If it's summer, I won't talk about it, but what's the weather like now?"

Although his hands were not cold, Gu Lian still felt a little uneasy. She dragged him to sit on the kang for a while, and asked someone to make ginger tea.

"Don't worry, there is a charcoal basin in the study, so you won't feel cold." Li Rongtai was very angry, but he was afraid that something would happen if she stood outside for a while.

The maid brought the ginger tea over, Li Rongtai took a sip and fed her, and then he also took a sip. After the two of them drank the ginger tea, they immediately felt much more comfortable in their hearts.

"You won't be stubborn. Don't I know how cold it is outside now? I just stood outside for a while, and I felt the air-conditioning penetrate into my clothes. It's so cold here at night. You must go to the street to see There are no people, so everyone is huddling in the house and warming up by the fire!"

Gu Lian felt that he always said don't worry, he is not cold, this person is not made of iron, how could it be not cold in this weather!
"Okay, if I have something to do in the future, I won't do it in the study, but here, so don't worry." Li Rongtai said while holding her hand.

After Gu Lian heard what he said, she didn't talk about it anymore. The two of them rinsed their mouths after drinking the ginger tea. Seeing that it was getting late, they washed their feet and went to sleep.

The day soon came to the day when the bandits beheaded, but the beheaded people seemed to be more than the people on the list, because Li Rongtai went to clean up a lot of people again.

"My lord, these are the lists that will be beheaded in the end." Li Rongtai handed the list that he had cleaned up to the Lord City Guard.

After seeing the name on it, the city guard couldn't help pulling his beard and sighing: "These people are hiding deep enough, this person, on the surface, I really don't know what kind of things they will do. , I always feel that I am old, and I can't even see through such things."

Naturally, Li Rongtai would not say anything nice. In his opinion, these fish that slipped through the net were probably caused by the city guard's intolerance.

Since the city guard is so familiar with the affairs here, it is impossible not to catch these people. Since he was asked to be the bad guy, then he did it.

"The time is coming soon, these people should also come out." Li Rongtai said to Chengshou.

Chengshou and Li Rongtai have worked together for a long time, but he also knows his temperament, and he doesn't seem to have a flattering temperament, so when he said that this matter should be handled by Li Rongtai, Chengshou knew that someone would definitely be added to the list of.

"Thanks a lot."

"My lord, it's not hard." After Li Rongtai replied, he led all the people who were about to be beheaded to the wind.

The beheading place here in the border town is known as Fengkou, but it is used very little here. This time so many people beheaded together, all the people in the city probably came here to watch except for the children.

"Look, these are the people who are colluding with bandits. They are really blind. They only think that they need to eat and drink. Why don't they think about how us common people live a hard life."

When the people saw these people, they were so angry that they immediately threw stones over. They were reluctant to throw food, but there were a lot of stones here.
