After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight

The exposure of Prime Minister Xun's affair caused a great shock to the imperial court and also brought a lot of resentment to the people. The capital was shrouded in an indescribable dullness, and the sky above seemed to be gloomy.

The wedding of Princess Wanping and Youjiwei came at the right time. It was a hearty happy event, like a ray of spring sunshine, which dispelled the gloom of the capital in one day.

The emperor emeritus was a man who knew how to handle things. He took advantage of the princess's wedding to reduce taxes, exempt corvée labor, provide relief to disaster victims, and set up tents to distribute porridge. He also returned the ten taels of silver that Prime Minister Xun had "stolen" from each household to the people along with interest.

The people were moved to tears and shouted "Long live the king".

In fact, returning the money to the people is part of the plan, but when and how to do it is crucial.

If it is not done well, the people will only be slightly appeased. If it is done well, for example, now, the people will be deeply grateful and want to kowtow to the royal family several times.

More importantly, this move by the retired emperor not only won back the hearts of the people, but also made Princess Wanping more prestigious among the people.

The deeper the love parents have for their children, the more they plan for their future.

Zong Zhengxi and Princess Wanping were born from two different mothers. Although Zong Zhengxi has a kind character and will not treat Princess Wanping harshly, as a father he still has to pave the future for his most beloved daughter.

Today, the princess's wedding banquet was held, and royal family members, civil and military officials, and their families were invited, but the Lu family was not invited.

It was Princess Wanping who personally removed the Lu family from the list.

When Meng Qianqian was carrying the jar to the banquet, she happened to see the old lady waving her arms and walking towards her as if she was facing a great enemy: "Help! Help!"

"great grandmother!"

Meng Qianqian quickly covered the jar and used one hand to support the old lady, "Why are you here?"

My great-grandmother is old and seldom goes out. Moreover, it was snowing so heavily that Meng Qianqian and Lu Yuan never thought of taking her out to suffer the cold.

Yuanyang and Zhao Si caught up with Meng Qianqian and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw her.

Zhao Si said apologetically, "Miss, I'm sorry. I didn't serve you well enough and failed to stop the old lady."

The mandarin duck also kept blaming itself.

Meng Qianqian said: "I don't blame you."

She knew her great-grandmother's temper very well. When she got angry, ordinary people couldn't control her. If they kept going against her, it would stimulate her to have an attack.

Meng Qianqian turned around and comforted the old lady hiding behind her: "Great-grandmother, I'm here, are you hungry?"

The old lady lowered her head, like a child who had done something wrong: "Qianqian, my pants are wet."

Is this why I must find my own?

Meng Qianqian said softly: "It's okay, I'll take you to change."

The old lady slowly followed Meng Qianqian to the side room.

Coming out of the wing room, the old lady looked refreshed, heroic, and capable of fighting the bandits!

Meng Qianqian opened the jar and said, "Great-grandmother, ginger pills to drive away the cold."

The old lady immediately covered her mouth and said, "You tricked me into taking medicine again! I won't take it!"

Meng Qianqian: "It's really ginger pills, sweet and delicious."

"Don't eat!"

The old lady refused decisively.

Meng Qianqian advised softly, "You've been freezing all the way, take some ginger pills to warm yourself up. I just took some and they worked very well."

She is feeling hot all over at this moment.

"Oh, I didn't hear you!"

The old lady waved her arms and slipped away.

Soon, Tan Er, who had eaten and drunk enough, came over: "Sister!"

Meng Qianqian handed the ginger pills to her and said, "Ginger pills, with candied fruit and red dates in them, do you want to eat them?"

Tan Er covered her round face and burped: "I'm full from eating braised pork. I can't eat any more."

Meng Qianqian went to find Bai Yuwei again.

The things Princess Wanping gave must be excellent, and she also wanted her younger sister to have a taste of them.

“I hate ginger!”

Bai Yuwei doesn't even drink ginger soup, let alone ginger pills.

Liu Qingyun was very considerate of his daughter-in-law, but he spat it out as soon as he put it in his mouth.

"What's wrong, mother?"

Meng Qianqian asked puzzledly.

Liu Qingyun almost vomited: "It's too disgusting."

Meng Qianqian murmured strangely, "It's not bad."

Is she the only one who thinks it tastes good?

At this time, Yuanyang found the table and said, "Miss, the old lady is sleepy."

Meng Qianqian nodded: "Okay, I'll take my great-grandmother back home. Mother, little sister, I'll go back first."

"go Go."

Liu Qingyun held the sleeping Baoshu in his arms, waved to Meng Qianqian, and said, "Leave Tan'er here. Qingshuang has gone to drink. The little guy is very heavy. Let Tan'er hold him."

"it is good."

Meng Qianqian didn't doubt it and told Tan'er about it.

Tan'er stayed obediently.

As soon as Meng Qianqian left, Liu Qingyun hurriedly picked up the teacup and rinsed his mouth vigorously.

Bai Yuwei looked at her in confusion: "Aunt, are ginger pills so unpalatable?"

"It's not that it tastes bad, it's that it's inedible."

Dust-covered memories come back.

Not long ago, she swallowed two such ginger pills by mistake, which caused her to have no way to vent her evil rage, and she forced herself on a decent-looking man.

It was only later that she realized that it was not an ordinary ginger pill at all.

By the time she realized this, her son was already born.

Forget the past.

How did that girl get such a thing?

And give it to people to eat everywhere.

She is a doctor, didn't she notice that there was something adulterated in this food?

Forget it, it would be strange if she knew. What decent doctor would go and learn such an unorthodox treatment method?

Thinking of something, Liu Qingyun asked worriedly: "Tan'er, where did your sister get the ginger pills?"

Tan Er said: "The princess gave it to me, so she can drive away the cold!"

Liu Qingyun: "It's okay then."

After a pause, she asked again, "How much did she eat?"

Tan Er looked up at the sky and thought for a while: "I've been eating all the time, I don't know how many times."

Liu Qingyun choked badly.

Lu Yuan came over and greeted Liu Qingyun. He wanted to send Meng Qianqian and the old lady back home.

Liu Qingyun picked up a bowl of venison and handed it to him, saying meaningfully, "Finish this before you leave."

Lu Yuan said strangely: "I'm not hungry."

Liu Qingyun held him back: "Listen to me, eat before you leave."

Lu Yuan said: "I'll come back and eat later."

Liu Qingyun hesitated for a moment, took out a medicine bottle from his purse and handed it to him: "Then take this with you."

Lu Yuan looked at the medicine bottle and asked, "What is this?"

Liu Qingyun: "Ten-fold tonic pill."

Lu Yuan: “…”

Lu Yuan felt that his mother was acting strange today, giving him some tonic pills for no reason.

It was obvious that something was being hidden from him.

Given his mother's temper, it's possible that she would do something to harm her son in order to have a grandson.

"Tonic pills? I'm afraid there's something mixed in them."

Lu Yuan threw away the tonic pills as soon as he went out.

After all, Meng Qianqian is a doctor and has a very sensitive nose. If she could smell something strange on me, she would misunderstand that I have intentions towards her.

At this time, Lu Yuan had no idea about the consequences of throwing away this tonic pill.

He got on the carriage with a stern look on his face.
