Chapter 87: Three Birds with One Stone
VIP chapter content,
The tears on Yao's face had not yet dried, and when he heard this, he was so shocked that he didn't know what to do, and he knelt down helplessly, unable to say a word of rebuttal. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Everyone was silent, because Yao's good temper/temperament and all the people in this room were innocent. Li Weiqing has never taken a concubine, and there is no aunt in the third room to stir up trouble, so except for the people in the big house, no one wants to offend the wife of the celebrity around the king, the only daughter-in-law of the Li family.
This scene is very different from when the Lan clan was under suspicion...... Even Li Yu didn't know what to say for a while! He looked at this gentle and innocent daughter-in-law, looking at him sadly with a pair of clear eyes, Li Yu, who was already guilty, couldn't even say cruel words, and said after a while: "The stakes are very high, don't jump to conclusions, Yao's stay in the yard these days and don't go out, and others are not allowed to approach!" ā
Li Shuci suppressed the blood tumbling in his heart, it was really a good strategy, not only could he kill his grandmother's life, but also let the Lan family get into trouble, and then involve the Yao family, it was really a good plan to kill three birds with one stone!
Li Shuci signaled, and immediately a mother-in-law stepped forward to take down two candles from the candlestick, and Imperial Physician Wu cut off a small piece, put it in a porcelain dish and put it on the charcoal fire to dissolve, and after a while, his face changed, and he saw that after the wax block on the disk dissolved, there were a few bright red traces in the transparent wax oil, "As expected...... After the cinnabar is burned by fire, it will turn into mercury, and the mercury permeates the air, colorless and odorless, which is difficult to detect, and the old lady is older, and her body is not as good as that of the young man. There are so many doses for such a small candle......"
Even Mama had been to the old lady's room and had not used the candles, so she cut off a small piece and melted the candles according to the method of Imperial Doctor Wu, and sure enough, there were almost all of them in this batch! Everyone looked at the candles in the house, the old lady was not young, her eyes were getting worse and worse, she especially liked to brighten the hall, and she had to light a few more candles in the house on weekdays. Everyone's hearts suddenly fluttered, looking at the more than ten red candles inserted in the candlestick in the room, and they couldn't help but shiver! If so, it's a bit too vicious!
Li Yu hurriedly ordered someone to replace these candles, and said, "Keep these candles containing cinnabar well!" ā
Zhou's face was pale, and he knelt tremblingly in front of the old lady's bed, and he was very sad: "How can this be? These candles were purchased together during the New Year's Festival, and everyone was fine, so why did her mother ...... her?"
Li Shuqiao, who was still leaning on Li Shuwen's fragile and powerless body just now, rushed over in a panic to support Zhou's, and her hands were still wearing silver gloves to cover the scar, her eyes were full of tears, and her eyes were full of sadness: "Mother, you must take care of your body, your daughter is tired and injured, and you are already guilty. The mother can rest assured that the daughter will take good care of her grandmother, and the grandmother will definitely get better......"
Li Shuwen looked at this scene, her face became very strange, she really felt that she had never really understood this person who grew up with her, Zhou's injury had been half a year old, Li Shuqiao appeared very few times, and it could be said that the injury had not healed at first, and it was inconvenient to move. But later, after Li Shuqiao recovered, she still ignored the Zhou family and didn't care about it. The several visits were also due to discussions......
Li Shuwen looked at the situation in front of her, like a play...... She suddenly felt that she was hallucinating, and a strange sense of oppression enveloped her, making her feel disgusted and disgusting, and she involuntarily took a step back. stumbled and knocked down Li Shuran, who was standing silently on the side, and Li Shuran helped her by the hand.
Li Shuwen saw her gentle and concerned eyes, and suddenly remembered that in the past, she followed the eldest sister every day, and the eldest sister sneered at the people in the second room behind her back, but her face never showed a cent, only her, rushed back to the front, and gave the sisters in the second room no face...... She suddenly felt that she was ridiculous, raised her head stiffly to look at Li Shuran, and said, "Thank you." ā
Li Shuran was stunned this time, thinking to herself how Li Shuwen changed sex? She's still a little unused to it. Li Shuci noticed the scene here and thought about it in his heart.
Su Luo came in from outside with a medicine bowl and walked forward quickly, and Mama Lian hurriedly stepped forward to support the old lady, and under the attention of everyone, she fed the old lady the medicine. Imperial Doctor Wu said: "The old lady needs to take advantage of the heat of the medicine to administer needles, please avoid it." Just leave a few people to take care of it. ā
Li Yu said: "Let's go back first." The aunts and ladies of each room retreated, and Li Shuci and the others naturally wanted to stay, she held Yao's cold and slightly trembling hands, signaling her to feel at ease. Imperial Physician Wu slowly twisted the silver needles on the old lady's forehead, neck and other acupuncture points, and it took half an hour. The old lady finally took a long breath and woke up from the coma, everyone hurriedly stepped forward, and Imperial Doctor Wu was invited to the side to drink tea and rest.
"Grandmother! How are you? Li Shuci stepped forward and grabbed the old lady's hand and said anxiously.
The old lady's eyes were cloudy, and she turned as if she saw the person in front of her, and her throat rolled without speaking. Li Shuci's heart jumped violently and waved away everyone, "Everyone step back and let grandmother take a breath." ā
Li Shuqiao said angrily: "Fifth sister, is you the only one who is the granddaughter of your grandmother, and we are all idle people?" ā
Li Shuci turned his head sharply and stared at her viciously: "Big sister, if you say another word of nonsense, you don't care about your grandmother's safety!" ā
Li Shuqiao trembled with anger and couldn't speak. Li Shuyu let out a sneer behind everyone, "Yes, big sister, how can you still think about these things at this time, you should do your grandmother's body." He said to Wu: "Mother, let's step aside first, and wait for grandmother to slow down." ā
Wu sighed, "You're right, it's useless for people to gather here, our filial piety is on weekdays, don't be in a hurry to ...... at this time."
Zhou and Li Shuqiao's faces stiffened, and they glared at Wu fiercely. Li Shuci looked at the old lady and asked softly, "Grandmother, can you tell who I am?" ā
The old lady made a careful identification, nodded, and made a frightened sound in her throat. Li Shuci glanced back at everyone, anxious, and asked, "Grandmother, is there any pain or discomfort on your body?" The old lady shook her head, and closed her eyes again, as if she had exhausted her strength.
Imperial Physician Wu sighed and said on the side: "Mercury poisoning, the body will be a little burning, the old lady is weak, although she has woken up, she needs someone to take care ......of her at all times."
Li Yu nodded, politely sent Imperial Doctor Wu away, Yao was about to step forward, Li Shuqiao's face flashed with a strange color, and said: "Third aunt, please forgive my niece for offending, now the cause of the old lady's poisoning has not been ascertained, you are still ......"
Yao's face turned pale, his lips trembled and he couldn't speak. Li Shuci stood up and said, "Mother, don't worry, grandmother has me here, Mama Jiang and Mama Lian are here, you go back to rest first, I will tell you as soon as there is anything." ā
Yao glanced at his daughter with a sad expression, nodded reluctantly, and was helped back by the girl. Li Shuqiao said to Zhou on the side: "Wen'er, you can also help your mother go back first, I am here here." ā
Li Shuwen looked at the strange look of excitement in Li Shuqiao's eyes, her temples jumped twice, she smiled reluctantly, and said, "Then it's all up to the eldest sister...... My mother had not yet recovered, so I went back with her. ā
There were only a few people left in the house, Li Shuci looked at Li Shuqiao's extraordinarily straight back, and was a little panicked for no reason: "Qingge, you should also go back to the courtyard first, Mu Yun is seriously injured, if no one takes care of him, I am afraid." It's good to have Xuexin here to accompany me. ā
Qingge looked at Li Shuci's burning gaze, and a trace of puzzlement flashed on his face, isn't Mu Yun already about to get better? Then a bright light flashed in her heart, right? "Yes, if the girl has any orders, let them know!"
Li Shuqiao sat down at the table, went straight to a cup of tea and held it in her hand, and looked at Li Shuci like a cold blade, the two had already torn their faces in the last abduction, and she did not hide her hatred for Li Shuci. "Fifth sister, although I don't believe that my aunt would do such a thing, but the matter is in front of you, you can't make mistakes again and again in order to protect your mother."
When Mama Lian heard this, she glanced over in surprise. Mama Jiang didn't seem to hear it, and still stared at the old lady's couch with good eyes. Li Shuci said: "Big sister is too careful. Although my mother is responsible for the candle flame, there are many people in the house, so it is really difficult to make assertions. ā
Li Shuqiao seemed to have recovered her former weakness for a moment, and said: "Fifth sister, I am not as eloquent as you, but my grandmother is now lying on the sickbed, and I have to find out the real murderer no matter what." My aunt is gentle and virtuous, and I can't trust her to do such a thing......"
Li Shuqiao's eyes and tone were already identified by the Yao family, but Li Shuci refused to admit it. Li Shuci was not angry, and smiled peacefully: "Thank you eldest sister for your concern, right and wrong are at ease in people's hearts." It won't be long before it comes to light! ā
After that, Li Shuci ignored her, bent down to pick up the cut forehead on the ground, and looked closely, the delicate pattern was seen to be cut from the middle, the thin line did not collapse, it was still firmly inlaid on the bottom, Li Shuci had seen Lan's needlework, although it was smart and vibrant, but the skills were so exquisite? Her fingers slid down, and at the corners of her forehead, she specially called Mei Bai, who had excellent needlework, and then sewed it up again. Left a little trace......
No! Li Shuci's hand trembled, how could it not be? She had seen the place that had been re-sewn by Mei Bai's hand at the time, and although it was cleverly connected, there were still traces when she looked closely. Li Shuci had a thought flashing in his heart, looked up at Li Shuqiao, and saw that she was staring at herself. Li Shuci slowly relaxed, as if he hadn't found anything, and handed the two pieces of broken forehead to Mama Lian, "Mama, before the matter is clarified, let's save this thing first!" ā
Mama Lian wiped her face and said in a low voice, "Yes." ā
Li Shuci's eyes looked at Mama Jiang who was guarding the old lady's side, has nothing really happened in the palace these days?
