Chapter 64: Tricky
He didn't dare to delay for a moment, and rode his horse all the way to report to the Hou Ye. There was a lot of discussion in the house because of this matter, Qing'er and Xi'er cried into tears, how could such a good person as an aunt be harmed, they all stared at the second aunt with hateful eyes, and the second aunt could only smile bitterly in her heart, she wanted to live a stable life, but there were always people who made her unhappy, harmed Aunt Lian, and found her own scapegoat.
Of course, some people in the house are sad, naturally some people are happy, and several aunts in the house have different expressions, at least Aunt Li and Miss Biao are the happiest.
Lin Wanqing listened to the news reported by Ziyue, the corners of her mouth hooked up a faint smile, and said in her heart, she couldn't fight herself in her previous life, and she couldn't fight in this life, it was easier to kill her than to pinch an ant to death, I didn't want her to die so happily, but I really didn't want to see that face that annoyed me, so I simply let her disappear in front of her eyes, so as not to make herself unhappy.
Zhao Yali heard the news, she only felt very happy, she was still thinking about how to kill her, thinking that she was really too popular, and she was even more angry, but I don't know who solved her so neatly, but this poison is really domineering, I have to be careful in the future, who knows who is harming people, but Zuo is just a few aunts in this house.
She can poison Aunt Lian today, and it is difficult to guarantee that she will not harm herself in the future, sure enough, there are no simple people in this back house, and the poisoning of Aunt Lian has made Aunt Li vigilant.
Let's say that Qingyun rushed quickly, and finally arrived at Zhao Jinling's location in the middle of the night, Zhao Jinling was still drinking flower wine with a few people, and when he was drinking drunk, Qingshan came in and whispered a few words in his ear, his face changed color, and the wine cup in his hand was overturned, he stood up and arched his hand to the people at the table and said, "I'm sorry everyone, there is something urgent at home." I can't accompany you, and next time I will invite everyone to eat and drink to make amends. Everyone at the table dared to be angry with him, and they all waved their hands again and again, "Zhao Ye is polite." You have to go beforehand, and we will meet next time. ”
Zhao Jinling went downstairs and went out, and saw Qingyun standing there in a simple manner, he was so angry that he kicked over and scolded. "Useless things, the master left you in the house, just to let you watch some, since you can still poison the lord's Lianniang, you said that this little thing was not done, see how the master goes back to clean up you" scolded in his mouth, and couldn't wait to ask anything more, as soon as he turned over, he got on the horse neatly, and as soon as his legs clamped the horse's belly, the horse galloped away. Poor Qingyun got off the horse and trembled, and he hurriedly followed up without even having a chance to take a breath, leaving Qingshan here to deal with some unfinished business.
Zhao Jinling was anxious and galloped all the way, firstly, he rode a rare horse, secondly, he was superb in riding, and he was already in a hurry and ran fiercely, Qingyun followed behind, his life was gone, and he couldn't catch up with him. At noon the next day, Zhao Jinling finally rushed back to the house. He didn't stop for a moment and ran to the second aunt's quiet residence.
Because Shen Qinglian never woke up, a few people in the house didn't dare to move her, so Shen Qinglian just kept lying on the second aunt's couch. After only one night's work, the second aunt was pale and her eyes were dull. The whole person quickly became haggard, she was a timid and afraid person, she had always had no quarrel with the world, just seeking a stable life, how could she bear such a thing, she only stayed in front of Shen Qinglian's couch.
Zhao Jinling strode in. From a distance, he saw Shen Qinglian lying on the couch, her little face was snow-white, her eyes were tightly closed, he stepped forward a few steps forward to wrap her in a quilt, picked up Shen Qinglian and left, the second aunt was so frightened that she trembled, knelt on the ground and cried, "Master Hou, Aunt Lian is really not a concubine" She cried whining, Zhao Jinling only glanced at her, and said coldly, "Ye will find out who did this, if it wasn't really you who did it, the master would not have wronged you, but Lianniang had an accident in your yard, naturally you are the most suspicious, so your yard was sealed first, You just pray in the courtyard that Lianniang is okay! ”
He didn't deal with himself immediately, the second aunt breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, there is nothing wrong with being grounded, and she can cause less trouble, like this time if she doesn't hold this Lao Shizi's birthday banquet, won't there be these things? I didn't want to do it, I spent it in the yard every year, although it was a little colder, but at least it was quiet, and it was the third aunt who tried her best to persuade her.
Could it be that she did this, she is not without suspicion about this matter in her heart, but Jiu'er is just a maid like herself, and her family is not around, so she shook her head and vetoed this rare poison.
Zhao Jinling wrapped the quilt tightly and hugged Shen Qinglian all the way back to the Green Lotus Garden, Xi'er and Qing'er followed behind them with red and swollen eyes. Zhao Jinling carefully put her on the bed, carefully tucked the quilt for her, ordered her to go down and send some hot soup, and asked the housekeeper to ask the old family doctor Wang Taiyi to come, Wang Taiyi has excellent medical skills, but he is old, and he does not come to the door to see a doctor, and only he has the confidence to let the housekeeper invite him.
Qing'er and Xi'er both knelt down tremblingly, the second aunt was grounded, and their slaves and maids who didn't take care of their masters should be punished.
The two of them were worried in their hearts, and kowtowed to Hou Ye, who was sitting on the edge of the bed and looked down at Shen Qinglian, and said, "Hou Ye, the slave and maid didn't take good care of the master, please punish Hou Ye." Zhao Jinling didn't look at them, until their foreheads were "banging" and bleeding, then he turned back with a cold face and said, "Lianniang is like this, the lord has the heart to kill you, but Lianniang has always been close to you, if the lord disposes of you, I am afraid that when she wakes up, she will blame the lord, this punishment is remembered first, you will serve your aunt attentively in the future, if she gets better, it is easy to say, otherwise, the lord does not dare to guarantee that he will do anything." Zhao Jinling's peach blossom eyes, which have always been amorous, reveal a terrifying light at this moment.
Qing'er and Xi'er nodded again and again with tears streaming down their faces, Zhao Jinling glanced at them, and said, "You two were the ones who went to wait with you yesterday, and told the master in detail about Lianniang's poisoning yesterday." Swept by Hou Ye's frightened gaze, Qing'er shrank back a little frightened.
Xi'er hurriedly wiped away her tears, took two steps forward boldly, and recounted in detail the situation of going to the banquet yesterday, Zhao Jinling wrinkled his brows and asked, "In other words, when Lianniang was eating, you were standing at the door, and you didn't see what Lianniang used?" ”
Xi'er nodded with annoyance on her face and said, "Because the second aunt's room is not spacious enough, she won't let us wait in the room, so as to save sulking, and say that the girl is not in front of her." However, the third aunt and Aunt Xiu were sitting next to Aunt Lian, they should know. I regret that I didn't follow Aunt Lian at that time.
Zhao Jinling closed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Let someone call the third aunt." Xi'er agreed and went. The hot soup ordered by the previous was also served, Zhao Jinling saw that it was skimming off the fragrant chicken soup, he bent down and hugged Shen Qinglian and leaned on his body, took the chicken soup in the maid's hand, and fed it little by little with a silver spoon. Fortunately, she still knows how to swallow, Zhao Jinling saw that she drank most of the bowl of chicken soup, and felt a little comforted, and waved her hand to let the maids go down.
He turned over on the bed, hugged Shen Qinglian against her cheek like this, and whispered, "Lianniang, wake up quickly, open your eyes and look at the master." As long as you wake up, what do you ask your master to do, will you promise you?" Zhao Jinling smelled the familiar fragrance on Shen Qinglian's body, hugged her soft body, and the tiredness on her body hit her for a while, in the end, he didn't sleep all night, and rode a horse quickly, and now as soon as he lay down, his sleepy eyes couldn't open, and he fell asleep after a while.
It's just that I'm still worried about Shen Qinglian. He woke up after just a short nap, he looked at Shen Qinglian's tightly closed eyes beside him, and breathed shallowly, as long as he thought that she would never smile at him again. Lightly angry and angry, my heart was uncomfortable, and at this time, the maid outside the house reported at the door, "Master Hou, the third aunt is here!" ”
Zhao Jinling kissed Shen Qinglian's white cheek and said in a low voice. "Lianniang, don't be afraid, Ye will definitely think of ways to solve the poison on your body. As for the person who harmed you, Ye will definitely make her regret coming to this world. Zhao Jinling gritted his teeth and said.
He helped Lianniang straighten the quilt, then got out of the screen and sat on the Taishi chair in the outhouse, and then said, "Let her in!" The curtain was raised, and the third aunt came in wearing a spring shirt embroidered with orchid on a white background, bowed to Zhao Jinling Yingying, and saw Hou Ye's calm face out of the corner of her eye, so frightened that she immediately lowered her head, and looked at it standing there with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes. Only feeling uneasy in her heart, Zhao Jinling stared at her for a long time, and then asked, "You sat next to Lianniang yesterday afternoon, you can see what she ate, but what is abnormal." ”
The third aunt raised her eyes and glanced at Zhao Jinling, seeing that his face was solemn and his eyes were sharp, her heart trembled, and her tone was a little dry, "Sister Lian eats the same as everyone else, such as Sixi balls, pheasant stewed mushrooms, vinegared fish fillets, I remember these, and she said that breakfast was late, and she didn't eat much if she wasn't hungry, so she tasted it a little." The third aunt didn't dare to hide it, and told her about the situation on the table.
"Oh" Zhao Jinling dragged out his voice and asked sharply, "Then why are you all fine, but she was poisoned!" He stared at the third aunt's body with a pair of sharp eyes, as if he wanted to see through her thoughts, the third aunt's body was dripping with cold sweat, her legs were so weak that she couldn't stand, and she didn't dare to look at those cold eyes, her head hung low, and her body was a little trembling.
She said in a trembling voice, "Master Hou, Jiu'er doesn't know what's going on, Jiu'er has always been grateful to Sister Lian for helping her last time, if possible, Jiu'er can't wait to replace Sister Lian" It's not a simple role in the end, although the third aunt was extremely scared, she soon had a set of rhetoric, and said it with affection and affection.
Zhao Jinling looked at her with a pair of inquiring eyes, and said, "You have a heart." I don't know how sincere she is when she says this, he remembers that Lianniang usually hates Aunt Li the most, and she is also very annoyed, don't look at him on weekdays, but there are still few things that can hide from him, but there are still few things that can hide from him, but some small and not strict things, don't take it to heart, if the third aunt is sincere, but a affectionate one, if it is just a scene, then he has to reevaluate the third aunt.
Zhao Jinling heard the report of the next person, hurriedly stood up, waved his hand to let the third aunt go down, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet the old lady in person, "Imperial Doctor Wang, please go for a trip, it is really a tricky disease for the insider, and I can't cure it after inviting a few doctors, so I asked you to come and take a look at the insider, the doctors who came before all said that she was poisoned, can you be sure, can you prepare the antidote." Zhao Jinling looked anxious and anxious, and the imperial physician looked at him in surprise, this famous merry little overlord in the capital was the first time he cared so much about people.
He bowed his head slightly and said, "I'll talk about it when the old man sees it." Zhao Jinling was now anxious about Lianniang's body, so he didn't care about those rules, he only led the imperial physician to sit down, and took out the brocade quilt from Lianniang's wrist, and the imperial physician raised his eyes to see that he was old and stayed in a beautiful place like the palace, and he was stunned, and sighed in his heart, no wonder the little overlord who could make the merry little overlord so nervous, sure enough, it was a fairy appearance, he stretched out his finger and sank his heart to carefully diagnose the pulse.
Doctor Wang diagnosed for a long time, and asked Zhao Jinling to take out Shen Qinglian's other hand, and carefully diagnosed, Zhao Jinling watched the sweat come out on the side, he was very nervous, he was afraid that Imperial Doctor Wang would spit out half a bad word, he knew that Imperial Doctor Wang's medical skills were excellent, if he said that he couldn't solve it or it was not good, then I was really afraid that it was impossible to think about it, although the antidote could be found from the murderer, but not to mention that the murderer had not been found for a while, that is, if she had found it, what should Lianniang do?
Imperial Physician Wang let go of his hand, muttered for a long time, and was about to open his mouth to speak, when he raised his eyes and met Zhao Jinling's eyes, he actually felt the meaning of prayer in his eyes.
He sighed in his heart. On his face, he was a little kind to him and said, "Little Hou Ye, your little lady is indeed poisoned, and this poison is still extremely rare, the old man has never seen it in decades of practicing medicine, but it is a bit like a foreign thing, so the old man can't do anything." He glanced at the little girl lying motionless with pity, and knew that this must be the means of those women in the back house.
As soon as Zhao Jinling heard this, his body couldn't stand, and he shook it for a while to stabilize, is Lianniang really hopeless? He grabbed Imperial Physician Wang's shoulder, and asked with pleading in his eyes, "Imperial Physician Wang, you have healed countless people in your life, what disease can stump you, you must have a way, right, you only said what medicinal materials you want, I must think of ways to get them, if I don't have them, I will go to my aunt to ask for them, there are no rare medicinal materials in the palace."
Seeing that he looked anxious and expectant, Imperial Physician Wang spoke incoherently, thought for a while and said, "It's not all powerless. As soon as Zhao Jinling heard this, his face suddenly flashed with hope, and he asked eagerly, "Imperial Doctor Wang, don't sell Guanzi, what kind of method is it, what do you say!" ”
Imperial Physician Wang looked left and right, and then came to the root of his ear and said, "I know that there are two antidote pills in the palace that can cure all kinds of poisons, and they will definitely be able to solve the poison on your little lady, but it is too precious, and even very few people know it, the old man didn't say it just now, even if he thought about it, it was useless, this pill is so precious, how can he give you a little concubine to take it." ”
Zhao Jinling was dumbfounded, he naturally knew this truth, not to mention that Lianniang was just a small concubine of his, even if he was poisoned, he might not be able to give it, Imperial Doctor Wang saw Zhao Jinling standing stunned, not moving for a long time, shook his head and went out by himself, he didn't want to talk about it, because it was useless to say it, so why bother adding a matter of heart.
