Saving the foolish general, she accidentally becomes his favorite.

Su Zhelan reminded him, seemingly unintentionally:

"Blood Spirit Grass can cure all poisons, and it can certainly cure the General's wife's muteness. I suppose the General intends to do something for his wife..."

Ye Li was greatly shocked when she heard this, but after thinking about it, she felt that it made sense. After all, it was something from the temple. Mo Chen had to rely on it to cure such a powerful poison, so it was only natural that such a powerful herb could cure muteness.

However, that would be making a mountain out of a molehill.

Since this medicine is extremely rare and there is only one dose, it is naturally meant for Mo Chen.

As for her illness, she can just consult Doctor Mu, especially since she is now Doctor Mu's disciple!

Ye Li wasn't worried at all and just focused on leaving.

But Mo Chen was overjoyed when he heard this. He excitedly said to Ye Li, "Wife, this is wonderful! With this, you can speak!"

When Ye Li saw Mo Chen suddenly become excited, and then looked at Su Zhelan's amused expression, she immediately realized something was wrong!

No wonder this emperor is so humble; he's actually a smiling tiger who eats people without spitting out the bones.

Those who ascend to the throne are indeed cunning and shrewd...

She cautiously pulled Mo Chen, signaling him to be quiet, then took the Blood Spirit Grass and hurriedly left.

After everyone had gone, the attendant Gu Qing bowed and asked, "Your Majesty, are we just going to let them take the Blood Spirit Grass away like that?"

Su Zhelan abandoned her nonchalant demeanor and sharply ordered the shadow guards lurking in the shadows:

"Send someone to monitor them, especially that woman."

Before long, several men in black appeared in the room, knelt on one knee, and left to receive their orders.

The room returned to its quiet state, and Su Zhelan smiled smugly: "It doesn't matter. Anyway, according to what that grassland princess said, if Mo Chen loses power, Xuan Yuanming will probably focus on promoting the Li family. At that time, the Li family will control the military and politics and will be deeply favored by the emperor, making it even more difficult to take action against them."

"Now is the time to get Mo Chen back to health. Look at how Xuan Yuanming wanted to devour him during the birthday celebration. Once he's recovered, Xuan Yuanming will continue to fight him to the death. Only then can Bei Chen take advantage of the situation."

Upon hearing this, Gu Qing exclaimed in admiration: "His Majesty is indeed a man of great vision and strategy, managing to keep Tian Shu busy with its own affairs."

Overflowing with admiration, Gu Qing, taking advantage of Su Zhelan's good mood, couldn't help but chat for a few more minutes:

"But how can His Majesty be so sure that Xuanyuan Ming cannot tolerate him? After all, in military campaigns, Mo Chen is indeed a sharp blade. If he needs to rely on Mo Chen, he probably won't be so ruthless..."

"Even the best knife needs to be easy to use. Xuanyuan Ming is very jealous, and his ascent to the throne was fraught with difficulties. Whether he can tolerate others is another matter. But Mo Chen, on the surface, is taciturn, but in reality, he is a reckless madman."

Xuanyuan Ming was his father's killer; for that reason alone, it was impossible for him to remain loyal and undisturbed for a lifetime.

Su Zhelan took a sip of tea, savoring its lingering fragrance, as if she were intoxicated by it:

“Just light a few fires at the right time…” He didn’t finish his sentence, as if he had thought of something, and laughed to himself.

"Your Majesty is wise..."

Meanwhile, Mo Chen, who had just left the post station, was still caught up in his excitement.

He laughed all the way, pointing excitedly at the box as if it contained a real treasure.

Ye Li felt that at this moment, this thing was more like a hot potato...

She mouthed to Mo Chen, "Tell the coachman to go back as fast as possible, it has to be fast, otherwise it will be very dangerous."

Seeing her nervous expression, Mo Chen didn't dare to delay, and the two quickly got into the carriage.

Mo Chenzhen carefully stroked the box in the carriage, saying to himself, "With this, my wife, you can speak. Here you go."

But Ye Li did not accept it.

Mo Chen didn't understand Su Zhelan's scheme, but she did.

One antidote, needed by both of them.

The most common scenario is that one person is saved, while the other is abandoned.

And those who give up are often the ones who suffer the most.

If the two people have a good relationship, then this is something that can be discussed.

If the relationship is strained, then a fight to the death over the treasure is possible, even to the point of mutual destruction.

The Prince of Beichen only threw out this bait at the last minute, just to see how they would choose...

A strategy to sow discord.

This is indeed a common tactic used by emperors...

Ye Li thought to herself that he was really good at calculating people's hearts.

What a pity...

If it were the original owner of this body, even if she were willing to give up this opportunity, she might still harbor resentment, but Ye Li wouldn't.

Su Zhelan's attempt to sow discord between her and Mo Chen was doomed to fail.

If Ye Li were no longer in this world, I might be able to travel back in time. Just thinking about it makes me happy.

Seeing that she refused to accept the box, Mo Chen assumed she was embarrassed, so he simply placed it in her hands.

"Whatever you want, I will give you everything I have."

Ye Li: "..."

She couldn't speak, and her eyes were a little wet.

……

He was always completely open and honest with her.

What did she do to deserve all of this man's tenderness?

……

Mo Chen, afraid of upsetting her, gently embraced her: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. No matter what, I'll be with you."

"It's good that you can't speak. That way, I'm the only one in the whole world who can talk to you. I know everything you tell me, so my wife can rely on me since she can't speak..."

The carriage sped along the return journey, and Mo Chen comforted her the whole way.

Upon arriving at the General's Mansion, Li Siyi and Xiao Ziming came out to greet them after receiving the news. Doctor Mu, however, arrived late, saying:

"As long as I'm here, everything will be fine. What's the rush..."

He personally verified the Blood Spirit Grass and said solemnly, "It's real. This is the Blood Spirit Grass. I never thought I would see it again in my lifetime."

Mo Chen then said happily, "Brother Mu, please use this to cure my wife's illness. That person said this herb can cure muteness."

The divine physician paused, clearly not expecting him to be so indifferent to his own detoxification. He widened his eyes and stammered:

"You kid... are you serious? You're going to use this kid to cure his illness? Not for yourself?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Li immediately stepped forward and covered his big mouth!

That brat, worrying about nothing again.

She shook her head at Doctor Mu and said directly, "No, give it to him."

She believed that Dr. Mu could understand what he meant.

This time, Mo Chen wasn't secretly pleased by his wife's affectionate touch. Instead, he unusually lost his temper and said with overwhelming force:

"No! I don't want it, give it to my wife!"

The boy's firm and determined voice suddenly rang out in the courtyard, startling everyone into exchanging bewildered glances.

Li Siyi looked at Xiao Ziming and whispered with a hint of mockery, "General, wouldn't you say that you've sacrificed yourself for others?"

Zi Mo looked at Ru Feng, and Ru Feng looked at Ye Li and then at Mo Chen.

The divine healer, however, didn't care.

For a moment, everyone fell silent.

……

Ye Li originally thought this matter would be easy to resolve, but she didn't expect that Su Zhelan's schemes would still keep her from having a peaceful time.

She was willing to give up the herb, and unexpectedly, Mo Chen was also willing.

Su Zhelan originally wanted to see them fight to the death, or to sow the seeds of hatred in their hearts.

Unexpectedly, neither of them intended to take it.

But neither of them was willing to take it first.

The experienced healer is still the best:

He simply said, "No need to argue, let's all roll the dice!"
