Chapter 513: Scheming, Brothers Cannibalizing
Aunt Hua's mind was in turmoil. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The old lady has not been in good health for several years. It seems to be healthy, but in fact, small problems with headaches and brain fever occur from time to time.
Especially after the eldest young master went, the old lady was in a hurry and fell ill, and then her body became even more lazy and often listless.
I thought it was all a small problem, but I found a doctor to check, and the doctor said that it was no big deal. The medicine was prescribed and eaten, and it didn't have much effect, but it didn't break out into any major illnesses, so no one suspected anything.
However, today's words made her think a lot.
If many years ago, this Buddha statue, this futon, and these incense candles already had problems, then wouldn't these illnesses of the old lady also be related to the second young master's family?
Aunt Hua thought about it.
Seven or eight years ago, the old lady bought this green jade Buddha statue with a lot of money, and after that, the young lady was found to be pregnant, and the whole family was very happy, and the entire Guogong Mansion was filled with a festive atmosphere.
Because the eldest young master is weak, he has not been able to have a child with the eldest young lady when he first got married. The young lady finally got pregnant, but she was already considered an older pregnant woman, so she was very careful in everything.
I don't know if this child is happy or what, during that time, the eldest young master's illness has also improved, it looks much more energetic than before, the doctor also said that this is a good phenomenon, as long as he recuperates more, not to mention that he can really heal and live like an ordinary person, but at least it is not a problem to prolong his life for a few years.
Da Shao has been weak since he was a child, if it weren't for the careful care, coupled with good luck, I'm afraid he won't grow up, and it is definitely a miracle to be able to drag it to this moment. But his condition really began to develop in a better direction, and it still made the old lady cry with joy.
The young lady looked at the child every day as if she was looking at her ancestors, eating habits, and the things that must be done every day that were beneficial to the child, and the young lady strictly implemented it according to the doctor's instructions. Even if she eats food, she doesn't feel that it goes through other people's hands, and it is all prepared by her henchmen.
The old lady has wanted to hold the grandson of the eldest young master for a long time, so naturally she will not mind that the eldest young lady is so tightly protected, it is better to say that the old lady is even more nervous about this child than the eldest young lady, not only invited the imperial doctor in the palace to help diagnose and treat it, but also invited a trustworthy grandmother from the palace to come and take care of the eldest young lady.
However, the child was not saved after all.
The young lady slipped tires inexplicably. The doctor said that he had eaten something bad, but the young lady was very sure that her diet was no different from usual, and she had all tested whether there was a problem before taking it.
It is said that with such a precise precaution, you shouldn't eat anything bad. At that time, some people in the mansion suspected that the people around the eldest young lady were traitors, but there was no evidence of anything being dropped in all kinds of food. Even so, most of the people around the young lady changed in the end.
Since then, the young lady has become more reticent, and there are always maids who report that the young lady often wipes away her tears alone at night.
The eldest young master was also hit and almost fell ill, although he was rescued by a doctor, but after that, his body bones were getting worse and worse, until two years ago, when the eldest young master went to ask the old lady for peace, he suddenly fell ill, and he has not been saved since then.
The eldest young master almost died in the old lady's room, which made the old lady particularly devastated, and always felt that it was her own fault, and then she was almost tired of this small Buddha hall, and she rarely even went out of the door.
Aunt Hua's face was very ugly.
If the matter of the eldest young lady's slippery tire back then was related to everything in this Buddhist hall, then it is likely that this matter has nothing to do with the second young master.
Although she didn't want to think so, everything in front of her made her unable to think about anything else for a while.
She wanted to go into more detail. Even if it is related to the second young master's family at this time, it will make the old lady sad, but at least these problematic things can no longer be allowed to continue to plague the old lady, so there must be a trade-off.
But before she could speak, she suddenly heard the little maid outside knocking on the door in a hurry, and seemed to be panicking. Aunt Hua opened the door with a calm face, and just wanted to scold, but heard the little maid hurriedly say: "Aunt Hua, it's not good, the old lady ...... her"
"How's the old lady?" Aunt Hua heard that there was something wrong with the old lady, so she hurriedly ran to the room next to her, Fang Xiaoyu looked slightly paused, and then greeted the little maid and asked her to extinguish the burning incense candles, and then moved out all the incense and candles that the old lady kept on weekdays, and asked her to bring the futon and the jade Buddha with her, so that she followed Aunt Hua and entered the old lady's room.
At this time, the old lady had already woken up, but her face was still full of exhaustion, and her frowning brow made her seem to be not in a good state, but looking at her expression, there seemed to be no sign of anger.
The old doctor in front of the bed frowned and checked the old lady's pulse, and his face was solemn as if it were the end of the world.
Aunt Hua hurriedly stepped forward to ask what was going on, and the old doctor invited Aunt Hua aside, and then said, "Old lady, this is not an ordinary headache and brain fever, this is poisoned." ”
"Poisoned?" Aunt Hua was shocked, and accidentally made the sound louder, so that the old lady could hear it clearly.
"Doctor, do you know what kind of poison is in the old lady?" Aunt Hua, who knew that she had just had a little teacher, suddenly calmed down, and then asked.
The doctor shook his head and said, "The old lady has some tiny amounts of medicine left in her body, and it is this kind of medicine that will stir people's qi and blood, causing headaches, fainting and other diseases. This time, the old lady was even uncomfortable, and it was also caused by the drug, which did not seem to cause much harm to the human body, but it could cause people to be uncomfortable for a short time. ”
The doctor himself said that it was a little inexplicable. The residual medicinal power of the blood in the body before is good to say, it is this slight toxicity in the new one, and there are no side effects on the human body, what is the use of this medicine? Just to make the old lady miserable? What a feud this is.
"Also, the old man just took a blood test for the old lady and found that there was a strange medicinal power in the old lady's body." The doctor paused, looking a little strange.
"What strange medicinal power?" Aunt Hua was confused by the doctor's strange expression.
The doctor thought about it for a while, and finally said, "It is a drug that can cause pregnant women to slip and prevent pregnancy." And there are still a lot of remnants of this drug, apparently it has been used for a long time. ”
The doctor's expression became more and more strange. Could it be that the old lady is still ...... at this age? So do you need to use drugs to slip tires or destroy bodily functions?
But if someone else gave the old lady a drug, but this medicine is too weird, right? Give a contraceptive pill to an old lady?
The doctor felt that the door to a new world had been opened. But his face is unmoved, without any emotion, just the facts that the presenter sees him.
"Causing slippery tires? Preventing pregnancy? Aunt Hua was stunned for a moment, and then her face changed greatly. She remembered the incident that Fang Xiaoyu had asked about the eldest young lady being pregnant, could it be a coincidence?
Aunt Hua's gaze immediately looked at Fang Xiaoyu.
Fang Xiaoyu took a deep breath, then picked up a stick of incense from the basket that the maid put on the table, then walked up to the doctor, handed the incense candle to the doctor, and said, "Doctor, take a look, is there anything added here?" ”
The doctor has also seen the world, and it is not uncommon for the intrigue and intrigue in the big family to deceive, but he is also calm, picked up the incense candle, smelled it at the tip of his nose, and then broke off a piece of the incense, crushed it, sniffed it carefully, and then said: "This girl is right, this incense is mixed with a herb, called Leng Xiangzhi, this medicine, has a very faint fragrance, if you don't smell carefully, you can't smell anything at all." However, it has high medicinal value. If it is used properly, it can cure diseases and save people, but it must not be approached by pregnant women. If you are often close to this kind of thing, it will cause the pregnant woman to slip the fetus, and if you are exposed to this medicine for a long time, it will destroy the physical function of the pregnant woman who has slipped, causing her to not be able to get pregnant again in the future. ”
"The medicine that remains in the old lady's body is exactly ...... Leng Xiangzhi," the doctor added.
Aunt Hua had already added the general story of the matter in her heart, and her heart became colder and colder.
If this matter is related to the second young master's family, this second young master can hide it deep enough.
On weekdays, it seems that he has no learning skills, and the mud can't support the wall, but in fact, he is also very vicious behind his back.
The second young master doesn't care, after all, he has a good reputation, and it is not unacceptable to be vicious. But is the second young lady, who looks soft-tempered on weekdays, so vicious?
Also, during the time when the eldest young lady slipped the tire, the eldest young master was only about ten years old, right? Such a young child would give such incense and candles to the old lady.
If you think about it, you can see that since it is a medicine that can cause people to slip on the fetus, it is naturally not for the old lady. The reason why he gave the incense and candles with added materials to the old lady was that he wanted to use the old lady's hand to murder the young lady's children.
He knew that the young lady also believed in Buddhism because of her mother's relationship, and he also knew that she often went to the temple to pray for blessings. Because the young lady was pregnant during that time, and she was very nervous about this 'old man', so she tried not to go out if she could. However, if she wants to pray for the eldest young master and the child in her belly, she is likely to go to the old lady's small Buddha hall to worship the Buddha with the old lady, so she simply sent incense and candles with added materials, and asked the eldest young lady to be contaminated with medicinal power in a place where she was unguarded and would not suspect, which led to a slippery tire, and the reason could not be found. Because no one will point the finger of suspicion at the old lady.
What a ruthless heart! What a poisonous means! didn't get his hands dirty, but let the old lady bear this sin. Well done! The second young master's family is really good!
Aunt Hua was furious, but she didn't notice that the old lady had already gotten up, and her eyes were cold and frightening.
She didn't know the conversation between Aunt Hua and Fang Xiaoyu in the small Buddha hall. However, just hearing that there were toxins left in her body, she automatically made up the story that someone in this mansion wanted to harm her. As the old lady of the Lu Guogong Mansion, her anger can be imagined.
"Aunt Hua, take down the painting on the wall too." Fang Xiaoyu said suddenly at this time.
The old lady was stunned for a moment, and didn't understand why she wanted to take the painting, but Aunt Hua had already heard Fang Xiaoyu say it, so she didn't have time to explain it to the old lady, so she hurriedly took down the picture of the Buddha and handed it to Fang Xiaoyu.
Fang Xiaoyu took the scroll, spread the painting on the table, and said, "Doctor, come back and take a look at the ink used in this painting." ”
The doctor frowned, wondering if there was another mechanism? So I stepped forward, sniffed in front of the painting, and suddenly frowned. Then he dipped his finger in a drop of tea in the teacup next to him and rubbed it on the painting, blurring the ink a little.
The ink was stained on his hands, and the doctor sniffed the ink on his fingers carefully, and then wiped the blank space in the painting with a disgusted expression.
"Doctor, how's it going?" Aunt Hua hurriedly asked.
"What's going on?" The old lady was confused. This painting was given to her by the second child. Although the painting was a little flawed because of an accident, because her son honored her, she always hung it in the room.
The doctor's face was a little gloomy, obviously disgusted by these harmful things, so he said, "There is something wrong with the ink in this painting. This ink is not ordinary ink, but a cicada coat with nine-colored cicadas. ”
"Nine-colored cicadas?" Aunt Hua frowned, and then as if she remembered something, her eyes were round, and the frightened look made the old lady feel bad for a while.
"Doctor, what is this nine-colored cicada?" The old lady had never heard of such a thing.
"The nine-colored cicada is a species that grows outside the territory. It is a type of cicada, but unlike ordinary cicadas, its name is feared outside the territory. The doctor's face was heavy, and he did not forget to roll up the scroll and put it in a corner, and then took some medicine powder from the medicine box and sprinkled it around, and then continued: "This nine-colored cicada is not to be afraid when it is alive. But if it dies, the skin will shed a layer of cicada's coat. This layer of cicada clothing is one of the favorite poison-making materials for those who are evil. It can cause sepsis. ”
"Sepsis?" The old lady's face suddenly turned pale as snow.
"Sepsis...... Sepsis...... "......The old lady almost didn't stand still, and she was about to fall backwards." Fang Xiaoyu quickly helped her hand, and the old lady stood firm.
"The amount of nine-colored cicada clothes in this painting is not too much, but it is also a lot, but because it is diluted a lot by ink, it will not immediately cause symptoms of qi and blood failure. However, if you come into contact with this kind of thing for a long time, it is very harmful to the human body. The doctor explained.
"Then if you are suffering from qi and blood deficiency in the first place, but you have been hanging with the medicinal herbs that replenish qi and blood for many years, and then ask about this taste, what will happen when you come into contact with this nine-colored cicada clothes?" Aunt Hua has calmed down, but the haze in her eyes has not decreased, but has deepened.
The old lady hurriedly pricked up her ears.
"The nine-colored cicada coat is enough for half a fist. The cicada clothes it has taken off, a whole one, can almost make a normal healthy person suffer from qi and blood deficiency. If a person who is already suffering from sepsis comes into contact with the nine-colored cicada clothes for a long time, as long as such a small piece is ground and added to the ink, this painting is enough to make the qi and blood that people suffering from qi and blood deficiency have replenished for many years come to naught. The doctor had already thought of something, but he remained silent.
As a doctor who often goes to various noble people's houses to see a doctor, you should know what to say and what not to say.
Doctors are the most talkative group of people, because they often deal with dignitaries and nobles, and if they are not careful, they may cause the nobles to be jealous and cause death.
The number of grievances and grievances in the gate of the mansion is not clear. He has seen a lot, and he has ignored a lot.
He is a doctor, responsible for healing and saving people. The rest of the grievances of the wealthy have nothing to do with him.
The old lady's legs and feet were still weak, and as soon as the doctor's words fell, she could no longer stand, and sat on the stool, holding the corner of the table with both hands, looking crumbling.
"Old lady, are you alright?" Aunt Hua felt sorry for the old lady, experienced the pain of the loss of a son sent by a white-haired person to a black-haired person, and now she has to accept the tragedy of her own son killing her own son.
"Doctor, thank you for today's incident, Mu Shuang, take the doctor to get the consultation fee and send the doctor out of the house." The old lady is going to chase away the guests.
"The old lady still needs to calm down and cultivate more. Later, the old man will prescribe a prescription, and the old lady will ask someone to take the medicine according to the prescription. The old man retired. "The doctor is also a smart man, and he didn't grind, so he immediately followed the maid away.
Anything that happens in the Lu State Mansion after that has nothing to do with him.
"Huazhi, what's going on with these things, I'll listen to you in detail." The old lady looked calm, but her trembling hands betrayed her.
"Old lady......" Aunt Huazhi hesitated. She was really afraid that the old lady would not be able to stand such a blow.
"Say!" The old lady suddenly shouted angrily, and Aunt Hua trembled in fright, so she no longer hid it, and hurriedly told the previous story as it was.
"Good! That's great! Brothers kill each other, flesh and blood, this is the good son I raised! It's my beloved grandson! The old lady looked sad, and her tears couldn't stop falling down. made Fang Xiaoyu feel a little unbearable.
She originally planned to frame the second master.
Anyway, her identity as a god stick has been spread out in the capital, and there may be doubters, but there are more trusters. Many people lined up to go to King An's mansion to make posts, and most of the various requirements were based on the fact that she was a 'Buddha girl'.
The eldest princess asked from the Wei family that there was a painting of the Buddha in the old lady's room, which was given by the second master, so she originally planned to start on things like the direction, and said that this painting conflicts with the layout of the room, which will cause misfortune to people and the like, anyway, this kind of thing is just nonsense, and I want to check it afterwards, but I am afraid that I can't find out anything.
She didn't plan to kill them all, but she was also determined to teach the second master a lesson. She doesn't need to confirm the fact that the second master wants to murder her mother, she just needs to make the old lady have a pimple in her heart.
This pimple is enough to be the last straw that crushes the second master. He didn't know how to learn, and the old lady loved him because he was her own son. But if this son is mad and has the intention of murdering her, even if he doesn't deal with it ruthlessly, I'm afraid he will become more and more estranged.
This was Fang Xiaoyu's original plan. Coupled with the eldest princess's side, it is enough to deal with a waste who does not learn and has no skills.
When Fang Xiaoyu came, she was still looking for an excuse to make the old lady believe her words, since she wanted to be framed, it was naturally better to make the logic more strict.
However, I didn't expect that she didn't need to frame her at all, and the other party had been laying out a long time ago.
If she frames the Wei family, I am afraid that the old lady can still forgive, after all, one is her own son, and the other is the daughter-in-law of the concubine, and it is clear which position is more important in her heart. She may scold the second master, or beat him twice, but she will never punish the second master severely for the sake of the Wei family.
However, if the second master framed the eldest young master, it would be different.
In the final analysis, the eldest son is the real heart of the old lady. He has been weak and sickly since he was a child, and this disease is actually brought out of his mother's womb. If there was no accident when he gave birth to his eldest son, he would not have hurt the child, causing the child to lose his blood since he was a child, and he almost couldn't support him.
Although the eldest son is frail and sickly, he has a flexible and intelligent mind, and he is calm and elegant, often with a gentle smile, and is gentle to everyone, filial piety, and sensible, and the old lady and the old man simply hold him in the palm of their hands.
Coupled with the guilt in their hearts, the two old men loved this eldest son even more, and they wished to give him the best in the world.
Originally, the eldest young master's qi and blood deficit had improved. Over the years, the old man has been collecting medicinal herbs or supplements to replenish qi and blood, and a lot of good medicines have hung on his life. Because of this, his health has improved, and he can even have no problems when his wife has sex, and his wife can successfully conceive his child. His first child, and possibly the last, will also be the last.
He was happy in his heart. Although he was frail, he felt sorry for his wife who had been with him for many years, and he felt guilty in his heart, but he didn't know what he could do for his wife.
The woman of this era, who puts her husband first, married him, I am afraid that it will be difficult to remarry. He didn't mind that his wife could find a good home after his death, and even the old lady and the old man were not unreasonable people. So they decided a long time ago, if their son finally went away, leaving this wife young, could they still make her widowed forever? If they meet a good one, it doesn't hurt to remarry, they should marry a daughter, as long as the children are doing well.
However, the young lady's maiden family may not agree.
If she can leave a child by her side, even if the child cannot inherit the Guogong Mansion in the future, after all, it is the bloodline of the Guogong Mansion, and it can also give his wife a hope, so when the eldest young master knows that his wife is pregnant, he is very happy.
Through the happy event, the eldest young master was in a good mood, and even felt that the pain was alleviated a lot, and his body was also developing in a good direction.
However, in the end, the child was gone.
I didn't even find a clear reason, and it was gone.
The eldest young master couldn't afford to be sick, although he didn't die, but his body was getting worse day by day. Later, it dragged on for several years, and he couldn't drag it out anymore and returned to the West.
Whether it is the people in the house or the outsiders, they all think that the eldest young master has arrived. After all, his body has been weak since he was a child, and he was originally judged to be unable to grow up at all, but now he has lived for decades more, in people's hearts, even if they know that it was the old man who went around begging for drugs to replenish qi and blood that could hang the life of the eldest young master for so long, they still felt that this was simply a miracle.
And now, the miracle has come to an end.
But today, it has been discovered that I am afraid that all this about the death of the eldest young master has been a conspiracy since many years ago.
How sad? What a pity!
The old lady was angry and crying, her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and she couldn't persuade her.
Fang Xiaoyu stood aside, feeling a little embarrassed.
"What's in this Buddha statue and futon?" The old lady looked at the Buddha statue on the table and the golden futon, and her heart was even more sad.
At this moment, the Buddha, who originally felt that he had kind eyebrows and a soft smile, became extremely hideous in her eyes.
Fang Xiaoyu sighed, and as he spoke, he directly broke the crack at the bottom of the Buddha statue, revealing a miniature straw figure with only one finger thickness, and a short needle painted red on the straw man's head was nailed, and only a small needle tail was exposed.
On the straw man's body, he wore a small handmade robe, and at the heart of the garment, the eight characters of birth were written, and the red needle was also pierced.
The straw man had seven rivets pierced into the soles of his feet. A long needle on the top of the head is pierced all the way to the navel.
"This is ......" The old lady and Aunt Hua were dumbfounded, and they didn't even know what kind of expression to use to face this matter.
"Witchcraft ......" Aunt Hua subconsciously covered her mouth.
The people of this era hate witchcraft the most. I don't want to say whether these evil arts can really curse people, but they shudder at the thought of someone stabbing the villain, stabbing them with thin needles and cursing them.
"Which one of the eight characters in the house is this birthday?" Fang Xiaoyu pointed to the handmade clothes at the mouth of his heart and asked, with the eight characters of birth written on it.
The old lady took it and looked at it, then angrily threw the little man out, and then gasped and lay on the table, the whole person felt ten years older.
Aunt Hua picked up the straw man that was thrown away by the old lady, glanced at the words on her clothes, and then said heavily: "This birthday is eight characters...... It's the eldest young master's. ”
Fang Xiaoyu was not surprised. When she saw this Buddha statue in the Buddha hall, she was already suspicious. The crack was obviously caused by the fact that the traces of man-made people were not done well, and it took a long time to cause the crack.
And most of the people who are generally treated like this are used to do witchcraft things.
So, Fang Xiaoyu explained: "This Buddha statue is indeed carved with fine green jade, and the carved lines are also natural following the traces of natural formation, and these are not fake." However, when I saw the crack in the small Buddha hall, I felt that this technique was quite familiar. The point of this Buddha statue is obviously damaged by man-made, and then repaired by the master, and because the repair method is always not as natural as the natural jade, so after a long time, it was dried by the smoke of the incense candles, and finally cracked. And this method of dealing with Buddha statues is mostly used in witchcraft in the Western Regions or outside the region. Write the eight characters of his birth date on the small figure or directly a piece of belongings carried by the cursed person, and pierce the top of the head, forehead, heart, and soles of the feet with needles coated with human blood or cinnabar, for curse purposes. ”
"This method was used by people when I was a child in the Northwest. And this futon ......" said, Fang Xiaoyu walked to the front of the futon again, forcibly tore the outer skin of the futon with his hands, and then said to Aunt Hua: "Auntie, please bring an iron bucket over, thicker, deeper, and harder." ”
Aunt Hua didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly called someone to prepare. It didn't take long for the iron bucket to be brought, and the subordinates also obeyed Fang Xiaoyu's instructions and brought fire oil and fire folds.
Seeing that Fang Xiaoyu carefully opened some gaps in the torn futon, Aunt Hua and the old lady actually found a disgusting insect in the futon, about dozens. It is flattened and has mostly been crushed to death. However, the blood stain on the body of the worm was stained on the futon, which looked extremely disgusting.
"This is ......," the old lady was accustomed to seeing on all sides, and was disgusted by this thing, and took two steps back.
Fang Xiaoyu poured the entire futon with fire oil, threw it in the iron bucket, and then lit the fire fold, and suddenly a fire burned in the bucket, and then emitted a foul smell. It's like a corpse, it's disgusting.
"What is this? How does it taste like this? The old lady had nausea in her stomach.
"It's called a corpse bug, and it's a bit like a centipede, but it's shorter, thinner, flatter, and doesn't have as many feet. The insect is born from rotting corpses and feeds on carrion. The wicked people of the Western Regions or beyond like to capture it, raise it in corpse oil, and feed it with corpse pieces. This kind of insect is the same as the evil Buddha, complementing each other, and the more complete the supporting facilities, the stronger the effect of the curse. Fang said with a smile, calling Aunt Hua and the old lady even more disgusting and unable to eat.
"This thing can really curse people?" The old lady asked with a grimace.
"Who knows. There is no basis for this thing to prove that their curse actually works. However, since ancient times, there have been many records of deaths due to witchcraft. Fang Xiaoyu really didn't know if this kind of witchcraft was really useful.
If it was the first life of the hundred lifetimes of reincarnation, I'm afraid she still didn't believe in this. There are ghosts in the world, people and souls, and heaven and hell after death, she almost scoffs at them.
But in the end, she was reincarnated for a hundred lifetimes so bizarre, what else could not really exist?
There are gods and ghosts in this world, maybe there is a curse that can curse the dead? She didn't dare to fully admit or deny it, after all, she was not familiar with this field.
"The birthday of the eldest young master is written here, which means that the old lady did not accidentally buy this evil Buddha, but someone deliberately arranged for the old lady to buy this green jade Buddha statue. It is not a coincidence that the eldest young master's birthday is not a coincidence, otherwise there are too many coincidences. ”
"And these corpse insects, since they are raised in corpse oil and live on carrion corpses, it can't be born in the futon......"
"And this incense candle, this painting ......" Aunt Hua couldn't think that the second young master's family had many unscrupulous means in order to kill the eldest young master, and even used witchcraft, which was really impossible to prevent.
Just when the old lady was covering her heart angrily, another little maid came to report, saying that in the Hundred Gardens, Mrs. Wei was injured in order to save the eldest princess, and caught a little girl who originally wanted to do something to the ladies and ladies, and Mrs. Wei and the Miao family did not dare to make decisions about the confession of the little girl.
The old lady almost didn't breathe to death. (To be continued.) )
