After Zhou Ying coaxed Guoguo to sleep that afternoon, she was drenched in sweat. After returning to her room, she entered the interspace, wanting to shower and change her clothes.
However, as soon as she entered the interspace, she heard a hurried cry for help.
She quickly ran to the storeroom and took a look.
She did not expect that it was a maid in the Northern Border Mother God Temple who asked for help. The reason was that Old General Zhou was poisoned and unconscious. General Zhou was ambushed, and his whereabouts were unknown. She asked her to think of a way to save them.
After Zhou Ying received the letter, her heart skipped a beat. She quickly looked at the General’s mansion and saw Old General Zhou lying unconscious on the bed. Several doctors were treating him.
However, no one could tell what poison Old General Zhou had been poisoned by at the moment, and they were running around in circles anxiously.
However, after knowing that Old General Zhou wouldn’t lose his life quickly, he began to look for Zhou Huaiyu.
Finally, she found his corpse in a small river. No, it wasn’t a corpse yet. He was still breathing weakly, but he was seriously injured.
If he was not treated in time, he could die at any time.
She brought him into her interspace, gave him a bottle of glucose, and started treating his wounds.
Unfortunately, she didn’t know how to suture, so she could only stop the bleeding and bandage him up.
She looked for Gu Chengrui and saw him grading papers with some people guarding him outside. She sent him a voice transmission to greet him and bring him into her interspace in the small operating theater. “This is Zhou Huaiyu. Hurry up and see if he can still be saved.”
“What happened that he suffered such a serious injury?” Gu Chengrui looked at Zhou Huaiyu, whose face was as pale as a ghost, and asked with a grave expression.
Zhou Ying did not hide anything and told him about the border.
Gu Chengrui nodded. “I’ll go and treat his wound now. You report to the Emperor immediately and see what’s happening at the border.
“Without the father and son, I’m afraid the border will fall.”
“Alright, let me know when you’re done.” After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she sent the news to the Emperor through the Mother God Temple.
The Emperor, playing with the two children at the Empress Dowager’s place, stood up immediately when he received her message. Even the expression on his face was flustered.
“What’s wrong, Your Majesty?” The Empress Dowager asked hurriedly. “Did something happen?”
“Imperial grandmother, I suddenly remembered that there are still things to deal with. I’ll leave the children to you.
“As for the selection, do as you see fit, but try to delay it until after autumn.
“The weather is too hot now, and I’m not in the mood to deal with this matter.” The Emperor left in a hurry after he finished speaking.
When the Empress Dowager saw this, she didn’t ask further.
She was getting on in years now, and all she wanted to do was take care of her two great-grandchildren and live happily in her later years.
After the Emperor returned to the study, he entered the bedroom. He chased everyone out in the name of a lunch break. He bowed 90 degrees deeply and said, “Please tell me the details, Mother God.”
Zhou Ying had already discovered through her investigation that King Hui had formed an alliance with the Northern Continent. The condition was that they would take in the three prefectures of the North Pass, and the two of them were currently at the border.
This time, the spy poisoned Old General Zhou, and Zhou Huaiyu fell into the trap set by King Hui and the others.
The First Prince of the Northern Continent will launch a large-scale attack on the Ming Dynasty tomorrow.
Without the commander, the outcome of the border could not be imagined.
Therefore, Zhou Ying did not hide anything and told him everything about the border.
The Emperor couldn’t help but curse after hearing this. “What an idiot. After the three prefectures in the north are sent out, it’s nothing but a wide stretch of flat land until the capital.. Isn’t this just like sending out the Ming Dynasty?”
