Chapter Eighty-Seven: Intricacies
After a while, Zhang An brought the doctor girl over. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
He strode briskly, and kept urging the medical woman who followed closely behind him with the medicine box on his back, "Hurry up!"
When I got to the prison door, he waved to me, "The villain has brought the medicine girl here." ”
I glanced at the medical woman with her head down, and still looked uncomfortable and weak and said to Zhang An: "There is Manager Lao Zhang." ”
"If you don't need a villain to serve here, the villain will retire first, and the princess can find the villain if necessary. Zhang An continued.
I was surprised by this, and I thought he would have been watching the doctor treat me. Is it because of the illness of the woman's family?
"Okay, you can get busy!" he wants to leave, so naturally I won't keep him.
"The villain retired. He saluted me again and withdrew.
In fact, Zhang An has his own ideas, he thinks that Dongfang Xun should not hide Sun Xuan's matter, let alone take the risk of hiding her. That's why he deliberately left the medicine girl alone in the dungeon, his purpose was to let Sun Xuan know about it, and then see how she reacted.
Hear the door of the dungeon "creak" and make sure he's gone. I grabbed the hand that the doctor was checking my pulse and said to her with a smile, "Don't look, I'm fine." ”
She looked at me in surprise and said, "How did you get this blood?
I pointed to the so-called "blood stains" on my skirt and said to her, "Take a closer look." ”
With a puzzled look, she leaned over to look at it and said, "Where did you get so many ideas?"
"Hey", I smiled, "and there will be it when you are in a hurry." ”
She also smiled, "I didn't see you being forced to be anxious, but I saw Manager Zhang's anxious face and thick neck." ”
I was suddenly a little curious, so I asked her, "What did Manager Zhang tell you?"
His face was flushed, and he didn't make it clear for a long time. After she finished speaking, the two of us looked at each other and smiled, but it was difficult for Zhang An.
I was still happy, but the doctor's face suddenly froze, "Now is not the time to be happy. ”
"What's wrong?" I asked her.
"Woe has come to you. She replied with an ugly face.
"Don't gasp for breath when you speak, what's going on?" Seeing her worried look, I was also a little anxious.
She took a breath and finally said, "Santai is dead!"
"How could it be?......" My mind went blank, and I suddenly felt the urge to cry, and tears rolled in my eyes, "I was about to ask you about him, how could he die?"
"On that day, you asked me to go and rescue him in two hours. But in less than an hour, the news came that he was dead. She said.
"How did he die?" I asked eagerly. Did I hurt him? How could that be? I just drugged him unconscious. Could it be that he was allergic to drugs, or had some other medical condition?
"I didn't see his body. However, I heard that the doctor said that he died of suffocation, and he was covered to death. She looked at me with a lot of doubts in her mind, but she didn't ask.
"I did cover Santai's mouth and nose with a drugged handkerchief, and gagged his mouth again. Did I hurt him? Did I kill him?" I asked the healer in a distracted manner.
The drug is prepared by a medical woman, and when inhaled into the mouth and nose, it can immediately stun people. If he hadn't covered his mouth and nose for a long time, Santai would definitely not die. She looked at me and asked seriously, "When you covered Santai's mouth and nose with a handkerchief, did you cover it for a long time?"
"No, as soon as I covered him, he fainted immediately, so I dragged him to the latrine and tied him up. I replied.
The medicine woman pondered and muttered, "That's weird, if you didn't hurt him, then who harmed him?"
"I also thought it was a little weird, at the time, it was like someone was staring at me from behind. "I suddenly felt a little creepy and shivered.
Her words changed sharply and said: "During this time, strange things have happened frequently in the palace, and I am afraid that someone will make trouble for it. ”
"Do you have any clues?" I strained.
"Let's take the incident of Li Xiuniang last time, according to the government doctor, she had no internal and external injuries, let alone signs of poisoning, and died of a sudden emergency. There is a strange thing on the corpse, that is, there is a red dot between the eyebrows. "She's mysterious.
"Is there any explanation for that?" I wondered.
"There is a kind of **, within twelve hours of taking it, it can induce people to fluctuate violently, and then die violently, and its poisoning inducement is to make the person who takes the poison mood fluctuate. She replied, her eyes shining.
I asked her, "And this kind of a**?". With this kind of **, isn't it not necessary to pay for killing people?
"I just heard the master say that this ** is refined from a secret recipe of a plant grown in Fanbang, and I always thought it was just a legend. People who eat this kind of poison and die will have red spots on their foreheads. And Li Xiuniang died violently because her dog died and she was too emotional, which is a kind of poison inducement. Listening to her say this, although it is just a guess, it seems to be like this.
"Why would anyone want to harm her?" I think of Li Xiuniang's appearance, she likes to raise dogs, and she doesn't look like a person who likes to cause trouble, how can she attract death?
"I don't know why someone else harmed her, but I've heard that her dog had angered Dyka before she died. ”
"No, she can't kill their owner just because she was upset by the dogs!"
"It makes sense for you to say this, but Li Xiuniang's dog was all poisoned the day after she provoked her, and her suspicion was naturally the greatest. The doctor said.
It's horrible. I asked her again, "Did you eat a dead mouse or something?"
She glanced at me and said, "There happened to be seven or eight rats who died, and they happened to be eaten by Li Xiuniang's seven or eight dogs." ”
"It's terrifying!" Someka's beautiful face suddenly became extremely terrifying in my mind. I suddenly thought of Santai again, "Is the matter of Santai also ......?"
"The matter of Santai must be investigated slowly, but now, you can no longer stay in the palace. She said.
I pondered, "It turns out that Dongfang Xun locked me up for this matter, is he going to kill me?"
"Don't guess, when you return to the palace, there is no news in the palace. The prince may be protecting you!" she said.
Isn't it a contradiction to say "protect me, lock me up?"
"There are things you may not know yet!" she said, her voice suddenly lowered.
"What's the matter?" I asked anxiously
"Santai's family sued the Metropolitan Criminal Division, and someone in the house pointed out that you did it, and now you are a wanted criminal. She replied.
"What?" it was like a bolt of lightning struck me at the door of my head.
"If someone wants to harm you, no matter how the prince protects you, it is still easy to dodge with open guns and difficult to defend against dark arrows. You still shouldn't stay in the palace, it's better to find a different place to hide. "The head of the doctor's analysis is the way.
I looked at her and asked, "Do you think I hurt Santai?"
"I'm sure you won't be the one who hurt him. Her answer warmed my heart.
