The Reborn Wife is Farming - Chapter 1162 Explanation
All of a sudden, Mr. Xia had all sorts of conspiracy theories. Was the poison poisoned by foreigners, or was it done by others?
Is this aimed at him alone, or at the entire Daqi officials?
The most important thing is, why did Prince Rong only ask the three children to inform him of such an important matter, should he send a steady servant at the last time?
What if these three children were playing a little bit on the way, and he was poisoned to death?
Master Xia’s mind was shocked, and various thoughts flashed through his mind for a moment, so that he felt a little dizzy.
The three children couldn’t see Master Xia’s mental activities, they just felt that he stood still suddenly, and the little leopard and Baozhu were eager to make meritorious service, and they talked about Xiao Fu one after another, and then Xiao Fu went to talk about Master Xia, “Grandfather, grandfather, you just take this Give me the poisonous tobacco.”
In a trance, Lord Xia took out the thing and gave it to them, and asked, “Is this thing really poisonous? Who told you about it?”
“Aunt Si said it,” Xiaofu held the box and said without thinking, “Uncle Si asked us to come out and tell you to go back, lest you get poisoned.”
Mu Yangling’s original words were, “Smoking is harmful to health.”
Qi Haoran’s original words were, “I don’t know what those foreigners have done with the cigars, it’s better to take them back and check them one by one. Besides, this tobacco is really not a good thing, and few people in the court smoke it. .”
Isn’t tobacco harmful to health just poisonous?
Xiao Fu hugged the box and led his cousins and rushed out. They had to go to the next house.
The three children really got a lot of cigars because of this, and the people they visited, as soon as they left, the host’s house started to ask for a doctor.
On this day, doctors in the capital were very sought-after, and two even almost fought on the road to grab the doctor.
When Qi Haoran found out that something was wrong and went to bring the three children back, rumors of “foreigners secretly poisoning” were already circulating in the capital.
Qi Haoran was full of black lines and had no choice but to come forward to refute the rumors. The matter has not yet been concluded. Doesn’t such a conclusion tear up the alliance between the two countries?
Fortunately, Xiaoan the Bear and the Tiger-headed Lion are more reliable. They did not use the conclusion that “cigars are poisonous”. They just stated that they had doubts about the cigars and wanted to borrow them back for research. Naturally, they did not return the loan.
The young masters from Prince Rong’s Mansion and Prince An’s Mansion came forward in person, and it wasn’t something important. Everyone was willing to sell their face, so although they spent more effort than the third child, they got it smoothly.
The key is not to panic.
But when they heard the secret news from the servants, their eyes went dark, “Cigars are poisonous? Are you sure?”
“Master Xia’s little grandson said it himself.”
The middle-aged uncles who have always been calm and self-sufficient all had pale faces, and said through gritted teeth: “Prince Rong misunderstood me! Go and invite the doctor, hurry!”
Like Mrs. Xia, they have all smelled the cigars before, some of them were interested in smelling the cigars after Xiaoxiong and the others came to the door, no matter what time it was, they just smelled it anyway, so they all have the possibility of being poisoned.
So just as Qi Haoran breathed a sigh of relief and felt that Xiaoxiong and the others were reliable, the doctors on the back were even more sought after.
Qi Haoran is helpless, there are really too many officials, even if he lives in a concentrated place, he can’t stand the crowd, he really has no strength to run away, so he simply waved his hand, that’s all, let’s all go to the palace and talk, so as not to worry about my family. Run, explained over and over again.
When Qi Xiuyuan learned of the oolong, he pointed at his younger brother and was speechless, “If you want this thing, just send someone to ask for it, why bother sending a few children out? Even Xiaofu and the others were sent out, little leopard How old are He Baozhu? You didn’t say anything quickly.”
Qi Haoran was also very wronged, “When I was talking to Xiaoxiong and the others, these three were standing by the side, rolling all over the floor and going, I thought Master Xia was Xiaofu’s grandfather, and the three of them only went to this family exclusively. Well, it’s easy to talk, and you can play there for a while longer, how could you know that these three brats would dare to say anything in order to win credit.”
“Are you still reasonable?” Qi Xiuyuan slapped the table and roared angrily.
Qi Haoran lowered his head and did not speak, but his expression was very stubborn.
Qi Xiuyuan picked up the cigar on the table, looked at it again and again, but couldn’t see anything wrong with it, “What’s wrong with this thing? Do you need to take it back and study it?”
“I have no idea.”
Qi Xiuyuan glared at him.
Qi Haoran sincerely said the words that could make Qi Xiuyuan mad, “I really don’t know, it’s because I don’t know that I want to take it back for research.”
“Then how did you become suspicious of this thing?”
Qi Haoran rolled his eyes, and asked in a low voice, “Intuition?”
Qi Xiuyuan looked at him quietly, Qi Haoran scratched his head, desperately trying to find an excuse, Qi Xiuyuan said flatly: “You make it up hard, if I’m not satisfied, you keep making it up until I am satisfied.”
Qi Haoran was a little frustrated, he has never been good at lying, “It’s Ah Ling, she looked very serious when she saw this thing, and she didn’t tell her when she asked her, I just thought I took it and asked Wang Taiyi to study it, maybe it can be done See what the doorway is.”
Qi Xiuyuan frowned, Ah Ling was always straightforward, how could he keep his mouth shut at this time?
The ministers who had been gifted by the English envoys quickly entered the palace with livid faces, and when they saw Qi Haoran beside the emperor, they all gritted their teeth.
Qi Xiuyuan’s expression turned cold, and he thought unreasonably: If they hadn’t accepted the gift, would Haoran need to be so troublesome?
Seeing the emperor’s face, the shrewd minister quickly returned to his country, restrained the scowl on his face and saluted respectfully.
Qi Xiuyuan began to excuse the children of his family after waiving the ceremony. It was nothing more than the fact that tobacco was harmful to health, so after hearing this, the children consciously thought that tobacco was poisonous. This was actually a misunderstanding.
The ministers were still worried before they came, they didn’t know if the poison they had was serious or not, and if they could be detoxified by the imperial doctor, they couldn’t be relieved after hearing the emperor’s explanation.
Toxic just because tobacco is bad for your health?
The expressions on the faces of the ministers were blank, and Qi Haoran had to cough lightly to explain that although they do business with foreigners, their hearts must be different if they are not of our race, and they still need to be prepared. I got the news that there was a fraud in it, but the box given to him by the foreigner was taken to the imperial physician for research, but he still couldn’t figure out why.
For better research, he could only put his ideas on the cigars that you all shared, and in order not to startle the enemy, he asked a few children to come forward.
Of course, Qi Haoran would not admit that he didn’t want people to think that he robbed the ministers of things before letting the children come to ask for them.
If you come to the door yourself, you will lose your status, and if you want to go down, you will look down on the other party and be arrogant and domineering. The status of the children is neither high nor low, which is just right.
After hearing Qi Haoran’s explanation, the faces of all the ministers looked a little better.
“Since foreigners have ulterior motives, why do I, Daqi, still do business with them? I propose to close the Forbidden Sea again, and keep such cunning people out of the country.”
Now even Qi Xiuyuan couldn’t help being angry, and said bluntly: “Who would give up eating because of choking?”
