Chapter 72: Bai Gaoxuan is poisoned?
Bai Muchen was criticized by his grandmother and father so mercilessly, his eyes immediately turned red, the corners of his mouth trembled, and his hands were clenched tightly, he was afraid that he would say irreparable words if he couldn't control it, but were these people in front of him really his relatives?
Although Bai Mujian didn't want to speak at this time, seeing his younger brother being hit like this, he still changed his mind, pulled him to his side, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and comforted him silently.
Then he looked at his father, and then at his grandmother, and then said unhurriedly: "Grandmother, father, mother, this matter has not yet been decided, Xiao Lu just said that those who are slaves should be loyal to their masters, and they did not say that she is only loyal to Chen'er, right, Xiao Lu?"
Her voice was clear and light, as if she didn't have too much emotion, and she wasn't worried at all about the situation that was so unfavorable to them now, and her eyes looked straight at Xiao Lu, and her scalp was numb.
Xiao Lu lowered her head, not knowing how to answer, if she said the wrong word now, she might push herself into a catastrophe, she thought about it carefully, in order not to destroy the established plan, she could only reply with a loud voice: "Slave maid...... The slave is only loyal to the eldest young master!"
"Jin'er, you heard it, it's not that my mother deliberately wants to think about it, Xiaolu's girl admits it by herself, she is only loyal to Chen'er, although I am moved by her loyalty, but in the end it is too narrow-minded, there are so many masters in this white mansion, why is Xiaolu only loyal to Chen'er? Isn't Chen'er promising her any benefits?" Lu sighed sadly, as if he was extremely disappointed in Xiaolu, but the joy revealed in his eyes was a little unbearable.
Bai Mu Hibiscus looked at Xiao Lu and suddenly smiled: "What a loyal girl, if she is really loyal, how can she say such a cruel word? Don't you know that this is to trap the eldest young master in injustice?"
When Xiao Lu heard this, he hurriedly denied it: "Miss, the conscience of heaven and earth, the loyalty of the slave and maid to the eldest young master, how can you trample on it at will?
Bai Muchen looked at Xiao Lu, didn't say a word angrily, turned his head away, and didn't even bother to look at Xiao Lu's disgusting face.
When Ming Chong saw it, he sneered and said: "Xiao Lu, can you see it, the eldest young master you are protecting wholeheartedly doesn't even bother to look at you, it's better for you to tell the truth, although you framed the second young master, but if you confess leniently, the grandfather will also open the net!"
Xiao Lu looked at Ming Chong, took a sip, and said, "Do you think that I am like you, and I can easily turn my back on my master?
After hearing this, Bai Shizu slammed his foot on Xiao Lu's heart, and scolded angrily: "What a loyal, you framed the second young master, and you still want to deny it, do you think that if you don't admit it, I won't be able to cure your crimes? Don't forget, you're all alone, your whole family is on an errand in Baifu, don't you even want your old son?"
When Xiao Lu heard this, his face turned white, looked at Bai Shizu, and then looked at Bai Muchen, suddenly softened into a puddle of mud, crawled over and hugged Bai Muchen's legs, and begged: "Young Master, Young Master, hurry up and intercede for the slave and maid, it doesn't matter if the slave and maid are dead, the slave's father and sister are innocent, please be gracious, help the slave and maid intercede, and let the grandfather and Mrs. let the slave and maid's family go!"
Bai Muchen had already seen that Xiao Lu had been framing herself in another way, where could he see her like this, so he kicked her away and said angrily: "You want to frame me in this way, it's really too smart, I don't see you so loyal to me on weekdays, and now you only recognize me as the master, you trap me in injustice in front of your elders, let me be charged with disrespect for my elders, and frame my brother, you are really loyal!"
Xiao Lu looked at Bai Muchen with a surprised face, covered his heart, shook his head in pain, and said with tears in his eyes: "Big young master, how can you be so ruthless? The slave and maid have served you for so many years, how can there be a day when you are not dedicated? For you, you have even done a lot of things that violate your conscience, not to mention this book, that is, on weekdays, you secretly help you to drug the second young master's food, and the slave and maid also have the courage to do it, how can you abandon the slave and maid after the matter is revealed?"
Xiao Lu's words were tantamount to a shocking stone, which made everyone present gasp, and they all looked at Bai Muchen in disbelief, but they didn't expect that the polite, well-behaved and sensible young master would be such a vicious person in private.
Old Madam Bai was no longer calm, and said loudly to Mama Sun: "You go and show the second young master to see if he has been poisoned!"
Grandma Sun hurriedly stepped forward to check Bai Gaoxuan's pulse, checked Bai Gaoxuan's tongue again, and then said, "The second young master seems to have been poisoned, but it is very slight and there is no major problem!"
Bai Shizu had just finished listening to Grandma Sun's words, and he didn't care about anything else, he took a step forward, raised his palm high, and was about to hit Bai Muchen, but Bai Muchen was pulled away by Bai Mujin, and Bai Shizu pounced into the air, because he used too much force, and almost let himself fall.
didn't hit anyone, Bai Shizu became more angry, burst into a shout, and said: "Two evil animals, see if I don't beat you to death today, I Bai Shizu don't have children like you!"
That fierce appearance made the people watching around tremble, it seems that the eldest lady and the eldest young master are in a catastrophe today, but the subordinates dare not sympathize, after all, the two sisters and brothers are too bold to want to kill their younger brother's life.
Bai Mu Hibiscus clenched her fists, and the silver needles in her sleeves couldn't help but take them out, but she still endured the last shred of reason, raised her voice, and said fearlessly: "Father, why don't you listen to Grandma Sun's words, Jin'er wants to ask Grandma Sun, what poison was in the second brother, and when did it start, I don't think with Grandma Sun's ability will not be able to find out, right?"
Mama Sun looked at Bai Gaoxuan carefully, and then said: "The slave can only see that the second young master is poisoned, it seems to be tapioca flour, if this poison is used sparingly, it will not hinder, at most it will cause bad appetite and nausea, if it is taken for a long time, it can also be fatal!"
"You heard it, you are so vicious, you actually want to harm my Xuan'er, Bai Mujian, Bai Muchen, you are so bold, you want to kill my Xuan'er in this way!" Lu Shi scolded angrily with red eyes.
When Bai Shizu heard this, he was even more ready to start beating people, but he was stopped by Bai Mujian again, and said with a smile: "Grandma Sun can't tell when the second young master was poisoned, right?"
"Yes, the slave maid just knows a little about pharmacology!" Grandma Sun lowered her head a little ashamedly, to be honest, she has been with Bai Hibiscus for a long time these days, and she still has a lot of good feelings for this smart lady, and she doesn't believe that she will use this method to harm people, and she is too stupid.
Bai Muhibiscus smiled, and then said, "It's okay, Grandma Sun has done her best, so why don't you ask a doctor to diagnose Brother Xuan and see when he started to get poisoned, grandmother, what do you think?"
Old Madam Bai frowned slightly, and just wanted to speak, but was interrupted by the Lu family, and said, "What else do you want to do? Is it not enough for me Xuan'er, if you didn't poison you, could it be that Xuan'er poisoned herself? When you are poisoned, what does it matter!"
"Of course it matters, if he wasn't poisoned before today, but it was precisely the poison today, then a clear-eyed person should see clearly what Brother Xuan was poisoned for, and what his purpose was!" Bai Mujian had a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes became sharp when he looked at Lu.
Lu Shi was shocked, she naturally knew this, so she must not let the doctor come to Xuan'er to diagnose and treat her, otherwise her painstaking plan would be in vain, and she would harm herself.
"What, is my mother afraid? Although the poisonous dose of tapioca flour is slight and will not be a big problem, isn't my mother worried that Brother Xuan's poisoning will hurt his body for a long time? Why don't you ask a doctor to diagnose it and prescribe medicine to detoxify Brother Xuan?" the corners of Bai Hibiscus's mouth looked so ironic.
It's really stupid, if she only caught Xiao Lu and framed Bai Gaoxuan with the Spring Palace Diagram, then she would have to make another effort to clarify, but now that she was going to pull out the poisoning thing, wouldn't she have given her a chance to bite back in vain.
How could the Lu family admit that he was weak-hearted, so he only said: "Since this is the case, please invite Dr. Xia over, he has excellent medical skills and is familiar with Xuan'er's physique, which is the most suitable!"
Bai Hibiscus looked at her and stopped talking, Lu finally relieved when he saw her like this, Doctor Xia is his own person, how could he help Bai Hibiscus!
Bai Shizu sent Steward Luo to invite Doctor Xia, but the scene did not ease down, and the Lu family couldn't wait to convict Bai Mujin and Bai Muchen before Doctor Xia came.
So he said: "Xiao Lu, why don't you explain the truth of the matter quickly, how did you harm the second young master?"
Xiao Lu looked at Bai Muchen, then at Bai Hibiscus, with a panicked face, and said: "Madam, don't ask again, it's all Xiao Lu's fault, please let go of the eldest young master and the eldest lady, they didn't instruct Xiao Lu, let Xiao Lu take it for him!"
"Xiao Lu, you can see clearly, the eldest lady and the eldest young master you are loyal to have never thought of protecting you, are you willing to give up the lives of your entire family for them?" Lu asked in a cold voice.
Xiao Lu looked at Bai Muchen heartbrokenly, and then burst into tears, and said, "Big young master, big miss, you have a word! Xiao Lu saddled the horse for you, do you want to watch the slave and maid's family die without a place to bury?"
Xiao Lu cried miserably, but her voice was implying that Bai Mujin and Bai Muchen instructed her to frame Bai Gaoxuan, the more Bai Shizu listened, the more angry he became, his chest rose and fell, and his eyes became more and more cold when he looked at Bai Mujin and Bai Muchen.
Lu shook his head when he heard this, sighed incessantly, looked at Bai Muchen's eyes with full pain and sorrow, and said, "Jin'er, Chen'er, have you reached this point and still refuse to admit it? If you do it, admit your mistake, your mother can forgive you, and she will also persuade your father to be lenient!"
