"It's obvious from the first glance that you lack understanding of the late Emperor." The old general continued with an expression as if nothing could be carved out of rotten wood: "The late Emperor had a hobby, that is, he liked mechanisms. He liked it so much that almost everything around him had to be equipped with mechanisms."
Xie Yao secretly smacked her tongue after hearing this and sighed: "That will be a disaster for those concubines, princes and princesses."
If you want to get closer to your father, you have to be careful, for fear that if someone doesn't pay attention, it will disappear.
The old general glared at Xie Yao angrily, "That's just a hobby. His identity is the emperor, not an engineer."
Xie Yao nodded quickly.
It is normal for my grandfather to be in a bad mood after eating too much, otherwise there would be no place to vent the discomfort in his stomach.
"This golden soft hedgehog armor, when you go back and take a closer look, you will find that there is a small thread on the lower left hand side of the garment. You only need to pull it gently, and the golden soft hedgehog armor will make you happy.
Become a real hedgehog." The old general glanced at no one around before lowering his voice.
Xie Yao was shocked, there was actually a mechanism on the golden soft hedgehog armor!
And the way to trigger the mechanism is to gently pull on an inconspicuous thread.
Her grandfather told her all this.
If she has a habit of pulling threads, the consequences...
"Grandpa, why didn't you tell me about the agency before?" Her tone was slightly dissatisfied.
"Forgot." The old general's answer was simple.
"Forgot?" Xie Yao raised her eyebrows.
"Well," the old general nodded and said seriously: "As we get older, sometimes it is easy to forget things."
Xie Yao had no choice but to go back and look for the thread, and then be careful not to accidentally pull it. "You asked me to lift my clothes when I'm in danger because the thorns on the soft hedgehog armor can
Are you going to shoot it out? The mechanism is still on the line?"
The old general shook his head, "The soft gold hedgehog armor is defensive and does not have offensive capabilities. It is best to trigger the mechanism when you are being held hostage, as it can have unexpected effects."
"Then you can do it without lifting your clothes." Xie Yao wondered.
If she was held hostage, how could the other party give her a chance to lift her clothes? And the action of lifting her clothes would definitely put the other party on guard.
"Ahem!" The old general coughed suddenly, looking a little embarrassed, "The action of lifting your clothes is indeed for the other party to see. Some veterans will still give the late emperor some face."
Xie Yao was speechless, her head covered with black lines.
When she just guessed it correctly, her grandfather said it was not that simple.
It turns out it’s not a denial, it’s just that what she said is not comprehensive.
"How is King Chen's condition?" The old general asked as if to change the subject.
"It's getting better," Xie Yao answered truthfully, "but tuberculosis is not easy to cure. In addition, King Chen has been ill for too long and is too deep. It will take at least three months to recover."
This time it was the old general's turn to be surprised, but his expression quickly recovered, "Don't be anxious, treat it slowly."
Xie Yao was a little confused about the meaning of her grandfather's words, "Are you saying that once King Chen recovers, I will lose my use value?"
The emperor's intention to target the general's palace has already been shown once, and the second time will not be too far away.
The old general neither nodded nor shook his head, but his old eyes narrowed, with an unknown secret light shining in them, "Never place your hopes on other people or other things. Only you are strong enough.
That’s enough to withstand everything.”
Xie Yao listened carefully and thought to herself: No matter what the reason is, she can just slowly cure King Chen's illness.
Tuberculosis is indeed not a disease that can be recovered in a day or two.
"Okay, I'm tired. Ask Ziqing if the fish is ready. I'm hungry." After the old general finished speaking, he burped.
Xie Yao smiled and said, "I've already prepared it. It should be delivered soon. It will take some effort to bake it. I'm afraid I won't be able to eat it until lunch."
"Okay, then I will endure it a little longer." The old general said, turning around and walking back with Xie Yao.
Xie Yao supported him, paying attention to his surroundings from time to time and taking a glance.
"Is something wrong?"
"Well, is it convenient to talk here?"
"follow me."
The old general led Xie Yao to a pavilion with a normal expression.
The pavilion is located on a water surface, surrounded by water and only has land in the center.
At first glance, there is not even a place to hide people, which is perfect for talking about secret things.
Xie Yao felt relieved as soon as he saw it. After sitting down, he checked his grandfather's pulse first and then took out a black pill. "This is the antidote I developed. Take it and it will detoxify your body."
The old general took a look and didn't move.
"I know that hastily detoxifying may attract attention, so I prepared another medicine." Xie Yao took out another red pill. "After taking it, all your characteristics will be exactly the same as before detoxification. The only thing is
The difference is that this is not poisoning, it is just a superficial phenomenon."
"If you want to relieve this phenomenon, you only need to take a sip of tea and a clove of garlic at the same time. Drinking tea or eating garlic alone will not affect it."
The old general's eyes lit up, he picked up two pills and looked at them carefully, "The black one is the antidote, and the red one is the fake poison?"
"Exactly." Xie Yao knew that her grandfather and the other three people were unwilling to detoxify immediately because they had concerns, so he developed this fake poison based on the poison they were poisoned.
Toxins have always been in the bodies of the three grandfathers, and it is not a safe thing after all.
The old general pondered for a moment and looked at Xie Yao, "How sure are you that your fake poison can deceive someone?"
"Ninety-nine percent." Xie Yao was determined. "Based on each component of the poison, I matched the medicinal materials with weakened toxicity, and then mixed them together. Except for the toxicity, other characteristics can almost be mistaken for the real thing."
"Okay!" The old general's eyes narrowed, "When Xie Lian and Xie Wenwu come back, the three of us will take these two pills together."
Xie Yao nodded. As long as the poison is removed, the danger to the General's Mansion will be reduced.
"Where are my father and brother?" She felt a little strange when she learned the news.
His father, Xie Lian, almost always stayed in the mansion except when he went to court. Xie Wenwu should stay in the mansion to recuperate and not run around.
"Ahem!" The old general coughed again, his face showing a rare embarrassment, "They went out of the city to help me catch game. Counting the time, they should be back soon."
Xie Yao frowned and was speechless. Grandpa was too greedy.
When I returned to the yard, I saw Zi Qing running over with an anxious look on her face, "Princess, this servant just carried two fish and walked over here, when suddenly an unknown lady came out and snatched the fish away. I don't know who she is."
