Chapter 1 Death by Poisoning
Tianxuan Continent, Jin Guo Xue Mansion, Zijin Garden, and the courtyard where the head of the house, Zongzheng Mu Zi, lives, is in a hustle and bustle at the moment.
"Madame! Wake up, hold on! For the sake of the little lady in the belly, wake up! The cry of grief has been echoing in his ears, and Zongzheng Muzi is sometimes sober and sometimes confused.
A sharp pain in her abdomen finally reminded her of the bowl of bird's nest porridge she had drunk early this morning.
Zong Zheng Mu Zi has excellent cultivation talent, and he entered the realm of Xuanhuang at the age of twenty, and he is a rare genius in the Jin Kingdom. She has been in the valley for many years, even if she is pregnant, she only needs to absorb spiritual temperature to nourish the fetus, and she does not need to eat food at all.
However, the bowl of bird's nest porridge this morning was personally served to her by her husband Xue Jincheng and fed to her!
It didn't take long for the high bulging lower abdomen to start throbbing.
Hehe, Zong Zhengmu had a sneer on his purple lips.
"Madame! Wake up, don't give up! The people around her were still crying, and Zong Zheng Muzi recognized her as Mama Xu, the nurse who had taken care of her since she was a child.
"Nurse ......" she struggled to open her mouth, hoarse throat, and let out a slight call.
"Madame, Madame, you are awake, thank God!" Mama Xu looked at her with a look of surprise, and her eyes full of worry were surprises that could not be concealed.
"Nurse ......" Her consciousness slowly became clear, but at the same time, she felt that the aura in her body was rapidly draining.
Zong Zheng Muzi gently hooked the corners of his lips, revealing a very shallow wry smile, "Help me bring the gilt box, go quickly!" "She has to keep the baby in her womb, even if she doesn't have the opportunity to grow up with her......
When Mama Xu heard this, she hesitated slightly, but when she saw Zong Zheng Muzi's clear eyes, she no longer hesitated and immediately ran to the bedroom.
Soon, Mama Xu returned to the bed with a palm-sized gilt box in both hands.
Zong Zheng Muzi tried hard to stand up, and Mother Xu hurriedly supported her and put a few pillows behind her back to help her lean.
The gilt box with an ordinary appearance and a little luxurious appearance was opened, but it was found that there was a small box wrapped inside, with a pure black smooth texture, made of unknown materials, giving people an inexplicable sense of heaviness.
The moment the black box was opened, a touch of golden light came out, covering the whole person lying on the bed in an instant.
Mama Xu was taken aback at first, and then found that it seemed that in the shroud of golden light, Madame's face was much better, and a glimmer of hope instantly rose in her heart.
"Madam, this is the ...... treasure of our Zongzheng family? However, before Mama Xu finished speaking, she was interrupted.
"Nurse, you must listen clearly to what I am explaining now. This box was given to me when my eldest brother left home, but whenever I was killed, he could sense it, and he knew that something had happened to me, and he would definitely rush over as soon as possible, for three days at most. Zong Zheng Muzi paused tiredly and continued, "Nurse, you must protect the child and wait for the eldest brother to come." Keep this room safe for three days, and no one will enter it. I have entrusted my child to you. Ah Zi breathed a long sigh of relief after speaking.
Mama Xu's eyes immediately turned red when she heard this, "Madam, Madam, you will be fine, the baby given to you by the eldest young master will definitely help you survive this catastrophe, don't you want to watch the little young lady grow up?" ”
"Nurse, I can feel it, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive this catastrophe, you must wait for the eldest brother to come, and then follow the eldest brother! No one dares to stop you! Thou shalt hold these three days. Zong Zheng Muzi held Mama Xu's hand tightly and explained the aftermath word by word.
Mama Xu looked at Madame's firm eyes, and slowly calmed down, three days, although it was very difficult, but Madame's explanation, she would definitely complete it.
"Madam, don't worry, Mama will promise you!" Mama Xu choked and nodded.
"Nurse, I regret that I didn't listen to my eldest brother at the beginning. I hope he won't be angry with me and help me take care of the child! Zong Zheng Muzi gently closed his eyes, covering the endless remorse inside.
"The old slave will definitely take care of the little lady!" Mama Xu couldn't cry.
"In this way, I will be relieved......" Zongzheng Muzi exhaled a breath of turbidity, clenched his two fists tightly, and concentrated the little spiritual energy left in his body to his abdomen, exerting a burst of force.
The pain was sharp, and her mind was in chaos. In a trance, I heard Mama Xu's surprised voice, "It's born, madam, look at it, the little lady is very beautiful!" ”
The child was born safely, and it was okay. Zong Zheng Mu Zi seemed to let go of the last trace of concern, his whole body suddenly became lighter, and the white light in front of him suddenly appeared, and then turned into endless darkness.
The baby in Mama Xu's arms seemed to feel something, and she cried out with a "wow".
Mama Xu knelt in front of Madame's bed, looking at the beautiful woman who had been closed, and wept silently with grief.
"Huh? It seems that I heard the cry of a baby just now, and Mrs. gave birth? A delicate female voice came from outside the door, which made Mama Xu desperately suppress the grief in her heart and try to straighten up. Madame's explanation has not yet been completed, and the most important thing now is to stop those ill-intentioned wolves, jackals, tigers and leopards outside the door, and protect the little lady thoroughly.
The little man in his arms seemed to be very sensible, and soon stopped crying, his eyes were wet and full of loving grievances, and his little nose was sobbing silently.
"The people inside replied, is the lady born? Boy or girl? "It's still that delicate voice.
It was Aunt Liu who spoke, this woman had lived a careful life in the backyard before, and it seemed that anyone could step on her, but last year her brother Liu Wenhao was promoted to a senior summoner and successfully squeezed into the Tianxuan Continent powerhouse rankings, Aunt Liu became arrogant and wanton, and even when facing Madame, she was often disrespectful.
A hint of disgust flashed in Mama Xu's eyes. Hmph, brainless woman! If it weren't for Madame's gentleness and generosity, would she have been able to live in the backyard of this Xue Mansion and wait for her brother's promotion?
Such a family with an unstable foundation actually wants to confront the Zongzheng family?
Mama Xu leaned down and put the little lady beside her wife, looking at the mother and daughter on the bed with tears in her eyes.
Mama Xu used to be Zongzheng Muzi's mother, that is, the distant cousin of the current Zongzheng family's housemother, and she took refuge in the Zongzheng family when she was backward in the family, and she has been taking care of her since Zongzheng Muzi was born, and she is very loyal to the Zongzheng family.
Mama Xu is not afraid of confronting the people of this Xue Mansion, but what she is worried about is that once she dies, she doesn't know what will happen to the little lady. I only hope that the eldest young master can arrive soon.
"Master, you're back!" Aunt Liu's coquettish voice came into the room again, which couldn't help but make Mama Xu's nerves tighten, and her eyes were full of resentment, it was this man, he killed his wife.
"Madame gave birth? How's it going? Xue Jincheng's deep and elegant voice came.
"I don't know, the door of this room has been closed, and before Madame went in, she ordered us not to let anyone in without summoning us, no, Wen Po has been standing in the courtyard for a day! This production is a major event related to the grandfather's heirs, and I don't know why Madame didn't let us in to have a look. Aunt Liu twisted her waist and softly leaned to Xue Jincheng's side to cover her lips and smiled.
Mama Xu listened to Aunt Liu's words of reversal of right and wrong, and couldn't help but sneer secretly, if something goes wrong with Madame's fetus, the biggest beneficiary is Aunt Liu, she is afraid that she will be very happy in her heart!
"I don't know if I've given birth, it's a man or a woman, what are we doing with this happy event to celebrate, no one has ever seen the little master, and it will be difficult to identify it in the future." Aunt Liu pointed out.
When Mama Xu heard this, she was angry and wanted to rush up and strangle her to death. As early as the third month of Madame's pregnancy, she already knew that this fetus was a daughter, Madame had never hidden it from anyone, and everyone in Xue Fuzhong knew that at this moment, Aunt Liu deliberately distorted the facts indiscriminately, clearly saying that the little master had a problem, and Madame deliberately hid it from everyone.
"Bang bang bang!" There was a knock on the door.
"Zi'er, let people open the door and go in for the husband to take a look!" Xue Jincheng's voice was still low, and he couldn't hear a trace of emotion.
Mama Xu's eyes narrowed, looked directly at the door, and said in a low voice, "Master, please go back, Madam has instructed that no one is allowed to step into the door, if the master is not at ease, you can push the door in and try!" ”
Xue Jincheng's breath stagnated when he heard this, and a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
"You dog slave, you treat people gently on weekdays, you really think of yourself as a master! Do you talk to your grandfather like this? Aunt Liu immediately jumped up, lest she lose the opportunity to watch Xiàn.
However, there was no sound in the house.
Aunt Liu was unwilling and continued to shout, "Mama Xu, I want to know about Mrs. Xu's situation, what are you always doing in the way, could it be that you took advantage of Mrs. Childbirth's weakness to kidnap Mrs.?" What conditions do you have, say ......"
"Shut up!" Xue Jincheng let out a low snort, and Aunt Liu was so frightened that she almost fell on her back, but fortunately she was supported by the maid beside her.
"It's okay to go back to your yard, don't come out to join in the fun!" Xue Jincheng glanced at her lightly, and then ordered.
"Yes, sir!" A hundred times of the grandfather's scream, full of grievances, Aunt Liu quietly looked up at Xue Jincheng's face, and found that he looked indifferent, and did not throw a single look at her, so she had to go back unwillingly with the support of the maid.
Xue Jincheng stood at the door of the room, staring at the delivery room with a pair of gloomy eyes.
Just now he was looking through the information in the study, and suddenly he felt a strong spiritual power fluctuation, and the coercion brought by that spiritual power almost made him unstable. Fortunately, the coercion came and went quickly, and after being able to move freely, he hurriedly ran in the direction where the spiritual power came.
He knew that Zong Zheng Mu Zi had excellent talent and profound skills, and it was extremely difficult to deal with, so he did not hesitate to take risks to deal with demon cultivators to get poison that could remove a person's cultivation, originally thinking that it was foolproof, but the huge spiritual power just now made Xue Jincheng have to act cautiously.
After much thought, he left the Purple Garden.
Xue Jincheng's departure made Mama Xu breathe a sigh of relief, but when she returned to the bedroom with the baby in her arms, she was shocked to find that the bed that had just been given birth by Zongzheng Muzi was empty at the moment.
