Chapter 340 Chapter 194 Ghost baby? Punishment(1/2)
In the long night, various situations arise in the army.
Lan Rongyue looked at the baby with red cheeks, endured the discomfort, and looked at Yan Canglan.
"Go and do it first, I can handle it here." The night was long, and this was just the beginning. Lan Rongyue knew it, and Yan Canglan knew it too.
"Yue'er..." Yan Canglan held Lan Rongyue's hand, how could he not see that she was holding back the discomfort? No matter whether the child is innocent or not, he could not stand by death without saving, especially in the current situation, saving and not saving are a double-edged sword.
"I'm fine, the enemy has to design it hard. I guess the child's origin is extraordinary and I can handle it." Lan Rongyue carefully observed the baby with a painful expression. Her skin was tender, her clothes were of good silk, and she also had a dragon-shaped jade pendant around her neck. Looking at this look, Lan Rongyue felt a bad premonition in her heart.
At this moment, she didn't have time to think too much, but this child must not have any trouble.
Yan Canglan heard the commotion outside the camp, hugged Lan Rongyue in her arms, gently kissed Lan Rongyue's forehead, and said, "Okay, be careful."
"Waiting for you to come back."
After watching Yan Canglan leave, Lan Rongyue immediately ordered Ye Chi, "Ye Chi, please go and replace Jiuer, and ask someone to hot water."
"yes."
There were secret guards outside the camp, so Ye Chi left with peace of mind.
Lan Rongyue took out the medicine box and took out a pair of gloves from the bottom of the medicine box. The gloves were made of resin, and then took out a mask to wear them. Lan Rongyue made a mask for Jiuer, who was originally intended to target her just in case, but she didn't expect to use it.
Looking at the baby who was crying and screaming, Lan Rongyue frowned slightly. If this level was targeted at her, what about the next level?
"Empress, the water is ready." Ye Chi walked in and saw that Lan Rongyue had taken off the baby's clothes. She saw that the baby's whole body was red like a small fireball.
"Let go."
"Empress, I'll do it." Ye Chizhen planned to bathe the baby, and Lan Rongyue immediately stopped him, saying, "Don't touch it, it's poisonous."
"Who can use such cruel means to a baby? Is it just for revenge?" Ye Chi remembered Yan Canglan's order in the royal capital, and then he had a question in his heart, but he was unable to confirm.
"No, this is not just for revenge, but a trap that has been set up long ago to feed the child an understanding medicine. However, the amount of the antidote is too small and not enough to relieve the poison on the child. If I don't save it, the child will have two days of life. This is not revenge, but for us. Ye Chi, go and help Lan, I will deal with it here." Lan Rongyue carefully wrapped the baby's clothes, and finally put the child in warm water. A trace of strangeness appeared in her heart. It turned out that the baby was like this. The softer the heart, the stronger the bad premonition in Lan Rongyue's heart.
"Yes." Ye Chi said in response when he saw Jiuer coming back.
"Empress, this is... a ghost baby." Jiuer saw that Lan Rongyue was cleaning the baby's body, and was injured and was wearing the pair of gloves that Lan Rongyue had never used after she had finished it. While helping Lan Rongyue change the water, she said.
"Ghost Baby? Could it be that someone in the military camp is rumoring this ghost baby?" Perhaps because he felt a little more comfortable, the baby no longer heard heart-wrenching crying, with a little tiredness, and looked at Lan Rongyue pitifully, his eyes were heartbreaking.
After seeing the baby's appearance, Jiuer's heart trembled slightly.
"When I came back just now, I heard the soldiers talking. Your Majesty and the Empress saved a ghost baby." Jiuer believed that Lan Rongyue had already arranged the rumors. At this moment, she shouldn't have disturbed Lan Rongyue's heart, but concealing it is not a good idea.
"It's indeed a little devil." The soft hand grabbed Lan Rongyue's finger and wanted to feed it into her mouth. The originally red body has also faded a lot, and it looks very cute.
"Little ghost? Empress..." Jiuer was shocked and thought, it wouldn't be really a ghost.
"I'm so young, why don't you be a kid? I didn't expect that the child I served for the first time was picked up." After Lan Rongyue wiped the child clean, she put the gloves together with the clothes the baby just wore. The gloves were stained with poison, just in case they were thrown away.
"Puff..." Jiuer laughed unceremoniously, "The Empress and Your Majesty should have a child sooner."
In the past, Jiuer thought that Lan Rongyue and the child were very different, but now when she saw it, she suddenly felt that motherhood was a woman's nature.
"This is a good idea." Lan Rongyue took out her cotton coat and wrapped the little guy around, and her pitiful eyes never moved away from her.
"Go and warm up a bowl of Xiaoxuelang's goat milk." He gently poked the little guy's cheek, "Everyone calls you ghost baby, little ghost, I'll call you Xiaoxiao in the future."
Lan Rongyue put down the child and opened the medicine box. "Fortunately, I brought a lot of detoxification products on this trip, otherwise I would be beaten. What do you think? Xiaoxiao."
His little eyes stared at Lan Rongyue and giggled.
"Xiaoxiao, why are you laughing at? It's a big loss to save you." Lan Rongyue poured out various precious antidotes from the medicine bottle, then mixed them in a certain proportion, and finally poured in warm boiled water. After a while, the small bowl was filled with half a bowl of water.
I don’t know if I understand Lan Rongyue’s words, but Xiaoxiao only knows to giggle.
"Empress, the goat's milk is ready."
Perhaps the fragrance of milk alarmed two sleeping little snow wolves. They opened their eyes from the carpet and walked to Lan Rongyue in a dim manner. They said for a moment that Lan Rongyue was a little embarrassed, so they had to instruct Jiuer, "Go and heat up another bowl."
Jiuer looked at Xiaoxuelang and thought that in the future, two little snow wolves can protect the little master.
Jiuer has lost a child and is particularly pity for the child. When he goes to hot goat milk, he still doesn’t forget to look at the child more.
Lan Rongyue picked up the spoon on the plate and started feeding Xiaoxiao medicine. The medicine she gave could not contain the poison in Xiaoxiao's body, and could only temporarily suppress the poison. Lan Rongyue didn't know how long it could be suppressed. Xiaoxiao immediately showed a disgusting expression as soon as she took a sip.
Lan Rongyue looked at the goat's milk not far away and thought to herself, fortunately she was fed the medicine first, otherwise she wouldn't be able to feed it.
After taking a sip, Xiaoxiao was so disgusted that she refused to open her mouth. Lan Rongyue felt helpless. This medicine was worth tens of thousands of gold. She even deliberately put nectar in it. It shouldn't be too difficult. When Lan Rongyue was in a dilemma, Jiuer walked in with the goat milk that was hot for Xiaoxuelang.
"Jiu'er, come and feed him." The opponent was a little girl and didn't know anything. Lan Rongyue was really helpless and had to hand the medicine bowl to Jiu'er.
Jiuer felt at ease with the tray, took the medicine bowl, held Xiaoxiao in her arms, and began to feed the medicine spoonful by spoonful.
Lan Rongyue went to feed Xiaoxuelang directly, but suddenly felt that feeding Xiaoxuelang still felt accomplished. She was not picky about food, and just put the goat's milk on the ground.
Xiaoxiao obediently drank the medicine fed by Jiuer, but her eyes never left Lan Rongyue. If it weren't for Lan Rongyue's wrapping him up, she would probably reach out to Lan Rongyue directly. Lan Rongyue didn't know that Xiaoxiao actually wanted her to hug her, not because she was unwilling to drink medicine. In Xiaoxiao's mind, she hoped to be hugged by Lan Rongyue.
After feeding the medicine, the little guy took a sip of goat milk and showed a disgusting expression. He stared at Lan Rongyue with watery eyes, as if he was about to cry the next moment.
"Empress, why don't you try it." Jiuer couldn't bear to cry after losing it, and said to Lan Rongyue carefully.
Lan Rongyue hesitated for a moment, held Xiaoxiao in her arms, took the goat milk handed over by Jiuer, and started feeding it spoonfully. Xiaoxiao looked like she was drinking poison, which was very painful, but she still drank it one by one, drank half of the bowl and burped it, and then she stopped opening her mouth again.
"It should be almost done." Lan Rongyue put down the goat milk bowl, then looked at Jiuer and said, as if she was asking.
"It should be enough, Empress, it feels like cleaning the jade pendant." Jiuer wrapped the clean jade pendant with a handkerchief and handed it to Lan Rongyue.
Lan Rongyue looked at the round dragon-shaped jade pendant. She remembered that this jade pendant was a sign of the royal family of Yuntian Kingdom. Whenever she was born, the Ministry of Internal Affairs would carve a jade pendant like this. She had seen it from Ning'er, but where did the jade pendant on Xiaoxiao come from?
"Empress...Empress..." Jiuer saw that Xiaoxiao was already asleep and wanted to take the child over, but Lan Rongyue looked at the jade pendant and seemed to be in deep thought. There was a commotion outside, and Jiuer had no choice but to remind her.
"I'm fine, you put away the jade pendant first, don't let others see it." When she first saw the jade pendant, Lan Rongyue thought it was a coincidence. After carefully looking at it, she confirmed that the jade pendant was exactly the same as Ning'er's body, and the material was also figured out. They were all the best warm jade, but it was too strange to appear here, just like...
Lan Rongyue didn't continue thinking about it. After all, she lacked evidence. Isn't it just the enemy's idea?
"Yes." Jiuer didn't understand why Lan Rongyue was so cautious. Without hesitation, she put away the jade pendant.
"Send a message back to the capital and buy medicine is prohibited." Lan Rongyue could not see any emotions in her calm eyes.
Jiuer was unknown. At this moment, the time when the poison was spreading in the royal capital, why did Lan Rongyue suddenly order banning the purchase of medicine? Could it be that it was related to this child? He didn't dare to ask more questions and responded directly, "Yes."
During the conversation between the two, Xiaoxiao was already asleep. Lan Rongyue saw that the noise outside was getting louder and louder, so she put down Xiaoxiao and walked out directly.
"As a soldier in the court, how can he quarrel with women in the city like a quarrel? What kind of morality?" He tied himself into a bun and wore silver women's armor. Every move showed his majesty. Lan Rongyue said that immediately shocked everyone.
"Why, you don't talk when I come out." Lan Rongyue's eyes swept across everyone, the news was getting rid of the rage, and the opponent took a lot of time.
"Empress, the ghost baby is unsuccessful, otherwise it will damage our army's fortune." A man in his armor, who looked like he was in his twenties, stood up and said righteously.
"What do you mean is I killing someone?" Lan Rongyue's mouth raised slightly, looking at the man in her twenties. With such a faint smile, Jiuer and the secret guard felt a little cold.
"Yes." The young man gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and said confidently.
"I'll bring the person out and you do it." Lan Rongyue's smile became stronger and stronger. Everyone who followed Lan Rongyue knew that when Lan Rongyue smiled the brightest, it was the worst mood. At this moment, Lan Rongyue's mood was extremely bad.
"I..." The young man didn't expect Lan Rongyue to say this, and he didn't know how to answer for a moment, and it was disgusting to attack a baby.
The smile on Lan Rongyue's face instantly dissipated, her expression was as cold as frost, her eyes were biting cold, and a cold voice gradually appeared, "Why, don't you want it, do you think I should do it yourself."
"As long as the Empress gives the order, I will definitely follow it." His voice was faint. At this moment, he regretted being the first to be the first.
"I'm giving the order? You asked me to order a child with unknown origin and no power to tie a chicken." Lan Rongyue raised her eyebrows slightly, and she was a little clever, but unfortunately she was too eager to succeed.
"I……"
"Why can't you speak? Ghost baby, you are still a person who has seen the world. Don't you know the emperor's aura, and gods are close to Gods? Xiaoxiao was brought back by His Majesty himself. Is it really a ghost? As a soldier, I don't know how to distinguish between true and false. Could it be that you are a spy sent by the enemy, trying to disrupt the morale of our army?" In a gentle tone, he pointed all the spies at the Nianqian who had just spoken.
"Does the Empress want to kill me to boost the morale of the army?" He regretted that he underestimated Lan Rongyue, and while paying attention to the movements around him, he refuted.
"Save you, I want to fight with me, too young. You have been sneaking into the army for several years and have been betraying our army's intelligence a lot recently. Fang Zhuo's cousin Fang Yi." Lan Rongyue's voice was not loud, just for everyone around to hear that many people present knew Fang Yi's identity, but they didn't expect Fang Yi to be a spy.
Fang Yi felt faint when his identity was revealed.
"Is the Empress trying to kill someone to silence her?"
"Silence the words, just because you are worthy of this palace to silence them and go and invite Fang Zhuo." She was naturally able to walk out of the dragon tent because she had already mastered the information. She was very satisfied with Hongxiu's work. Fang Yi hid very deeply. If it weren't for Hongxiu's methods, she wouldn't have found evidence so quickly.
The air became colder on the eve of dawn. Fang Zhuo learned that Lan Rongyue was invited, so he rushed over without asking why.
Tonight, haunted, poisoned, and assassinated were really lost at all.
"Fang Zhuo pays homage to the Empress." Fang Zhuo suddenly felt a bad premonition in his heart when he saw Lan Rongyue and Fang Yi standing together.
"You can see it yourself."
Lan Rongyue took out the evidence from her sleeve and handed it to Fang Zhuo. After Fang Zhuo finished reading it, his face changed drastically. It was obvious that someone had prepared the trap today. He did not expect that it was his cousin who betrayed the information, and it was his cousin who released the rumors and disturbed the morale of the army.
"Selling intelligence and disrupting the morale of the army, you should be punished for your crimes." Fang Zhuo knew that he was the general with his own ability, and now, the honor and life of the Fang clan will be in danger.
"You are a sensible person." Fang Zhuo could say that he should be punished for his crime. Lan Rongyue was very surprised and did not plead for mercy. It was not bad.
"Cousin, I was wronged. It was the Empress who wanted to save that ghost baby so that I could..." Looking at Fang Zhuo's expression, Fang Yi could not continue talking.
"Ghost baby? I've saved it. You said it was a ghost baby. I'm not long before, should you say I was cold-blooded? As soldiers, you don't even know your own position. Do you still dare to talk about others and slander this palace? Can you bear the blame for your family?"
After slandering a country, according to the law, even if the whole family is not in trouble, at least the lives of the family will not be saved.
At this moment, everyone around me regretted it, but it was too late.
Fang Zhuo was silent. Indeed, from the beginning, he knew very well that this was a dilemma. It would be a joke to save or not. Fang Zhuo was still a little surprised by Kelan Rongyue's choice. He knew very well that this person was not easy to save. It was his decision to choose to camp here. The purpose was because there was a swamp here. The temperature around the swamp was very high, and hot water would emerge from the ground, so that the soldiers could clean it up. Unexpectedly, it was his cousin who betrayed the information.
His uncle got a son in his old age and loved him very much. If his uncle had not requested him, he would not have agreed to Fang Yi to enter the army. Unexpectedly, he personally placed the spy in the army.
