As soon as Dongmei heard that her young lady was poisoned, she realized the importance of this matter, and hurriedly followed Cuizhu's arrangement to find Mrs. Xia. And Cuizhu and Qiu Ju saw that Xia Xue'er was in pain and had no choice, so they could only take turns to cool Xia Xue'er with a cool towel, and changed several basins of water in and out, but Xia Xue'er's body was still burning badly, and the person had fallen into a half-dream, half-awake, and the brocade on the bed had been soaked with her sweat, printing patches of mottle.

The banquet on this side of the main house had dispersed, and when Dongmei arrived, there were only a dozen maids cleaning up the mess, and Mrs. Xia was not seen. I could only ask people and hurried to the gate to look for them.

Mrs. Xia was accompanying Xia Qingxuan to stand outside the door to see off the guests, and turned her head unexpectedly, but she caught a glimpse of Dongmei sneakily hiding behind the door, her face was anxious, and her heart suddenly tightened, and she hurriedly beckoned to her, Dongmei trotted forward, attached her ear and said that Xia Xue'er was poisoned, she was shocked after hearing it, and hurriedly found an excuse to leave.

As soon as Mrs. Xia entered the door, she ran towards the bed, only opened the gauze tent and glanced at her daughter's state at this time, and she understood that she was already angry at the moment. He put down the gauze tent and scolded sharply: "How did you serve Miss, why did this happen? ”

The three of them hurriedly knelt down, and no one dared to talk nonsense.

When Mrs. Xia saw this scene, she was even more angry and scolded: "Say! If you can't say why, you will all drag them out and beat them to death! ”

Dongmei and Qiu Ju are young and timid, and when they heard that they were beaten to death with sticks, they were so frightened that they cried, only Cuizhu was still calm, but she was also stunned, and she didn't know what to say.

When Mrs. Xia heard the crying, she closed her eyes in annoyance, frowned and said: "Don't cry, crying hurts my brain, I know crying when I encounter something, can crying solve the problem?" Tell me who dared to give such a vicious poison to my Xue'er! ”

Dongmei and Qiu Ju hurriedly stopped crying after receiving this scolding, and only cried silently. Madame asked them to give an explanation, what can they say! It was a good chat, and no one had ever come into this room, and the young lady was suddenly poisoned, and they were wondering if they were confused!

Only Cuizhu replied in a low voice: "Mrs. Hui, it's not that the slaves don't want to say it, it's just that the young lady is poisonous, and the slaves and maids don't know where to start!" ”

After hearing this, Mrs. Xia waved her sleeves, swept away the incense burner on the table, pointed to Cuizhu and said, "What's wrong? Tell me what kind of trick it is? Could it be that it will be inexplicable and suddenly poisoned! ”

The fallen incense burner rolled in front of Cuizhu and lay obediently on her knees. Cuizhu trembled, but still replied: "Mrs. Hui, it is ...... So. ”

"What?!"

Mrs. Xia raised her voice and her eyes widened in disbelief.

Cuizhu lowered her head and replied to Mrs. Xia in a fifteen-ten: "Miss has been talking to the slaves and maids since dinner, and she has not been out of the house during this period, and no one else has come in. ”

After hearing this, Mrs. Xia narrowed her eyes, looked at Cuizhu with ulterior motives and said, "No one else has come in?" If it weren't for the fact that there were thieves in this Yuxuan, would it still be evil? ”

Cuizhu naturally heard the meaning of Madame's words, but this was not the time to suspect who was the thief, so she raised her head to meet Mrs. Xia's gaze, and said boldly: "The slave understands the meaning of Madame's words, the three of us have been serving Miss since childhood, and we will definitely not be the thief, but there are many slaves in Yuxuan, if it is interrogated one by one now, it is estimated that the trial will not be completed until tomorrow, but Miss is now poisonous, and the detoxification is urgent, and the slave and maid boldly remind Madam that you must not take care of one or the other!" ”

"Do you think I don't know that the priority is to detoxify Cher? But if you sue me, who should I find to solve this poison? Who can you find out! ”

Mrs. Xia roared at Cuizhu and the three of them, tears coming out of her eyes and dripping down her cheeks to the ground.

She is not deaf, she can't hear her daughter's painful **, she is not blind, she can't see how uncomfortable her daughter is at the moment! It's just that the poison in my daughter's current is the poison used to confuse others in Fireworks Willow Alley! A woman's reputation for chastity is the most important thing in her life, and if others know about it, it will be equivalent to announcing to the outside world that her daughter is already an unclean person, and she will suffer shame for the rest of her life and become the laughing stock of others!

Cuizhu lowered her head after hearing this.

Yes, if she hadn't seen what this poison was, she wouldn't have just asked Dongmei to invite her wife to come, instead of asking a doctor to treat her. There are many kinds of this poison, the name is messy, but the use and effect are the same, it has always only been spread in the market Qinglou kind of smoke and willow land, why did it enter the Xia Mansion today, and it was also used on the body of the in-law lady? Who wants to possess Xia Xue'er, and would come up with such a means of indiscriminateness, it's really shameful!

The room was silent for a while, only Xia Xue'er's painful voice came into everyone's ears one after another, hitting everyone's hearts again and again. Mrs. Xia sat slumped in her chair, rubbing her temples, closing her eyes and meditating. She had never been so out of shape, and she had never hated her so much, and if she knew who the poisoner was, she would not spare her!

Cuizhu was anxious, and now no one has an idea, and it is not a way to drag it all the time, so she begged bitterly: "Madame, think of a way, if it drags on any longer, Miss is afraid that she will die of poison!" ”

Dongmei and Qiu Ju also echoed anxiously:

"Madam, think of a way!"

"Madame......"

What can Mrs. Xia do? This poison can help or harm people, depending on who it is used for. And her daughter has not yet talked about marriage, but is an innocent virgin, do you want to force her to use that method? That's the treasure she holds in the palm of her hand, how can she do it!

Just when everyone was anxious to find a way, suddenly, there was no sound on Xia Xue'er's bed, and everyone's hearts suddenly rose to their throats. Mrs. Xia hurriedly got up, stumbled to the bed, and lifted the gauze tent with trembling hands to check.

Poor Xia Xue'er was completely unconscious, her mouth no longer sounded, only the eyebrows of the two distant mountains were wrinkled together; Her breathing became extremely weak, like an old man in the last years of the wind and candles, lingering on the sickbed; The little face, which had been turned red like a flame due to poisoning, had now turned pale, without any trace of the charm of the past; The blood oozing from the white teeth of the plump lips had already flowed down the corners of the mouth, and a lot of gorgeous roses bloomed at the neckline; The fist that had been clenched had also been released at this moment, and the four deep nail marks in the palm of the hand could be clearly seen......

Mrs. Xia slowly reached out to touch her daughter's little face, tears burst out of her eyes like a flood that burst the embankment, flowing wantonly on her face, and then she grabbed her daughter's petite palm, held it tightly in her hand, and muttered in her mouth: "Xue'er, you have to hold on, you must get through, my mother hasn't seen you put on your wedding dress, she hasn't seen you become a wife, and she hasn't hugged her grandson...... Mother still has a lot to say to you...... Mother just wants to see your innocent smile every day and look at your happy face...... You must hold on, without you, my mother will not be able to live! Hold on...... Be sure to ......."

Mrs. Xia couldn't stop crying at the end. Cuizhu, Dongmei and Qiuju were also in tears, and the house was filled with sadness, thick sadness.

Suddenly, the door slammed open, and an anxious voice followed.

"Cher!"

Several people in the room were frightened by this sudden change, and hurriedly turned their heads to look at the door, but before they could see who was coming, they saw a black shadow rushing towards Xia Xue'er's bed, and they arrived in front of it in the blink of an eye, and the speed was staggering.

After the man stood in front of the bed, they saw that it was Su Qi, at this moment, the room was full of people except Cuizhu, the rest of the people opened their mouths in shock, who is this person, dare to trespass on Miss's boudoir!

Su Qi didn't have time to pay attention to the expressions of others, nor did he pay attention to what they were thinking, so he directly snatched Xia Xue'er's wrist from Mrs. Xia's hand, and gently put his fingers on it, and went to check her pulse. I didn't know about it, I was shocked when I explored it, I thought Xia Xue'er was just sick, but I didn't expect it to be poisoned!

Mrs. Xia saw that Su Qi was serious and took her daughter's pulse, and for a while her heart was mixed.

When this man entered the door, he actually called his daughter's name directly, called him so affectionately, and made such an intimate move at this moment, which is really contrary to etiquette, righteousness and shame, and contrary to the dogma of men and women not kissing!

Besides, how did this Su Qi know that her daughter was unwell, and she broke into her daughter's room directly without waiting for the word to be heard, and made such an intimate move at this moment, is there any secret in this?

A terrifying conjecture suddenly appeared in Mrs. Xia's heart, could Su Qi be the culprit of this poisoning incident?

Mrs. Xia was puzzled and even more angry, she snatched her daughter's wrist from Su Qi's hand, glared at Su Qi angrily and said, "What is Su Gongzi doing!" ”

Su Qi was too anxious, and only Xia Xue'er was in his eyes, so he ignored that there were other people in the house. It wasn't until Mrs. Xia snatched Xia Xue'er's wrist from him that he found out that this person was Mrs. Xia. But his life was at stake, so he didn't have time to explain more, but he just hugged his fist at Mrs. Xia, and then said simply: "I want to detoxify Xue'er in the future, and I hope Mrs. will forgive me if I have any offense." ”

Mrs. Xia frowned, looked at Su Qi with a defensive expression, and said, "Do you know what kind of poison she has?" ”

Su Qi shook his head and replied honestly, "I don't know." ”

He had already left the Xia Mansion and was on his way to Senior Brother Zhang's hospital in the west of the city, and it happened that he met Li Zongyang on the road alone wandering around the empty streets like a soulless wild ghost, because at the banquet, Master Xia introduced him in front of everyone, and he and Li Zongyang had some brief conversations, and they knew each other, so they stepped forward to say a few words, who knew that they learned the news that Xia Xue'er was sick from him, and he rushed all the way to listen to Yu Xuanzhong.

Mrs. Xia asked with a puzzled face: "Since you don't know what poison is, how can you detoxify it?" ”

"I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, and although I am not proficient in medicine, I am familiar with all the acupuncture points and meridians of the human body, as well as their respective characteristics and functions, and I can use them to force out the poison. Madame, rest assured! ”

After that, she wanted to take Xia Xue'er's wrist, and only by probing the poisoning from the pulse image could she understand the divergence of this poison, so as to find out the right way for her to exercise and the entry point for detoxification.

But Mrs. Xia was not on guard, she still held her daughter's hand tightly, and asked Su Qi: "No, I don't know anything about you, how can you tell me to rest assured?" ”

Su Qi thought for a while, simply took out a jade pendant from his arms and handed it to Mrs. Xia, and said: "This is the artifact that can represent my identity, if Madam is not at ease, you can accept this jade pendant as a proof, if I violate my faith and do something harmful to Xue'er, Mrs. can use this physical evidence to break my body into ten thousand pieces!" ”

Mrs. Xia took the jade pendant suspiciously, but as soon as she glanced at it, she felt familiar, and then her eyes moved down, and she really found the word "Netherworld" in the corner, he was actually a disciple of Netherworld Valley!

In addition to shock, there was also joy, but Mrs. Xia was not carried away and was still very cautious. There are many disciples in the Netherworld Valley, although there are many rules and regulations, but there is still no shortage of people with bad intentions, this small token doesn't seem to mean anything, what if he is one of the very few bad people, wouldn't it be a sheep to hand over his daughter to him?

So, Mrs. Xia asked, "What is the relationship between you and Zhen Tianxiong?" ”

Su Qi was stunned, he didn't expect Mrs. Xia to ask such a question back. Although the Netherworld Valley is a big faction, it is low-key, so only the people in the rivers and lakes know its existence, but Mrs. Xia, a backyard woman, not only knows, but also can call out the name of the valley lord, how can she be so clear?

But the matter of detoxification cannot be delayed, Su Qi looked at Mrs. Xia with a defensive look on his face, as if he didn't say that she would have been blocking, so he could only answer honestly: "Master-apprentice relationship." ”

"What kind of Cheng dù's master and apprentice?"

"Personally."

"Really?"

"Seriously."

Mrs. Xia nodded, looking at Su Qi's appearance extremely sincerely, not like she was lying. Then he asked, "That poison saint Zhang Tianyu is your uncle?" ”

Su Qi hesitated for a moment, but then nodded and replied, "Exactly." ”

"Did he teach you how to detoxify?"

When Su Qi heard this question, he didn't answer immediately, but thought for a moment before saying: "Uncle Zhang has traveled all the year round and has never taught me the science of detoxification, but I have seen Shizun Yungong detoxification many times, and it is not a problem to come to relieve Xue'er's poison. ”

When Mrs. Xia heard Su Qi say that she had seen Zhentian Xiong's luck detoxification many times, her heart stopped beating for half a moment, but she covered it up very well, and no one could see the flaws.

Now she is completely relieved to let Su Qi come to detoxify her daughter, not because she completely trusts Su Qi, but because Su Qi is Zhen Tianxiong's personal disciple, she completely trusts Zhen Tianxiong!

Mrs. Xia suddenly took Su Qi's hand, looked into his eyes and said, "Sue me, will you do your best?" ”

Su Qi gave Mrs. Xia a firm look, nodded and replied, "I will definitely do it." ”

After hearing this, Mrs. Xia put her daughter's wrist into Su Qi's palm with confidence, took one last look at her daughter, and then got up and instructed the three people who were kneeling on the ground: "You three go to the side hall with me to wait." With that, he took the lead and walked out of the room.

Cuizhu was the last to go out, she pulled the door over and closed it gently, leaving a quiet and independent space for Su Qi and Xia Xue'er.
