Chapter 503: It's Time to Change!
"Life is death, death is life, you see that he is still alive, he may have died a long time ago."
Meng's face was half hidden in darkness, half soaked in the flickering candlelight, making her expression look extremely obscure. There was no trace of indifference in the voice, and in Mo Ju's ears, there was a creepy chill.
Seeing that she didn't care about the matter of "the third young master is dying", Mo Ju had already closed her eyes and started to chant the scriptures, and she didn't dare to say anything to disturb her. Exiting the door lightly, he called Jiang Mei to him, "Something happened to the third young master, it's reasonable, we should all send someone over to take a look."
I'm afraid the princess won't sleep anymore when she wakes up, I have to wait next to me and can't leave, you go to the library to get an old mountain ginseng, and send it to the second young master's mansion in the name of our princess, and by the way, inquire about the situation on that end. ”
Jiangmei looked embarrassed, "But the ban hasn't been lifted yet......
"I have a pass token for the palace here, if someone interrogates me, you can show it to them, no one dares to embarrass you." Mo Ju took out a sign from her sleeve and stuffed it into her hand, thought about it, took out the pair of cards from Meng's side, and handed it to her, "If the person on the door asks, you will say that the princess asked you to go out to do something, and don't reveal a word to them." ”
A few more words of advice.
Jiangmei put away the sign, took her words to heart, and went to do her own errands.
Mo Ju sent Jiang Mei away, still very concerned about Meng's words of "life is death", so she called a bold and clever little girl and told her to keep an eye on the movement at the other end of Jingguo Courtyard.
The little girl went for about two quarters of an hour. Sweating profusely, he ran back again, "Sister Moju, come out ...... Something went wrong......"
"What's wrong?" Mo Ju asked, seeing that she opened her mouth a few times and didn't say a whole sentence, she hurriedly reached out to stroke her back and smooth her breath, "Don't worry, take a breath and speak slowly." ”
The little girl opened her mouth wide and gasped twice, before she eased up, "It's the fourth young master who has an accident." Said to have slept well. Suddenly my stomach hurt and I vomited blood. Mother Zhang sent someone away, and hurriedly went to find Princess Fang......"
Mo Ju's heart sank, and he intuitively felt that this matter had nothing to do with the Meng family. I can't believe it. Confirm with the little girl, "You're not mistaken? Did the fourth young master really vomit blood? ”
"Can't be wrong. I saw with my own eyes that someone brought out a large basin of blood and water, and the fourth lady cried loudly, and the courtyard was in chaos. ”
"I see. You go and keep an eye on it, and come back at any time to tell you what is going on. Mo Ju sent the little girl away, and stood with her pounding chest for a long time before entering the door to find Meng, "Princess, something happened at the other end of Jinggu Courtyard, saying that the fourth young master vomited blood......"
Meng Shi Huo Di opened his eyes, "What?!" ”
Mo Ju frightened her stern face, and subconsciously took half a step back, lowering her head and not daring to speak.
"Are you telling the truth?" Meng asked with a grimace.
"Yes, our people saw it with their own eyes, saying that the fourth lady was crying to death, and Mama Zhang had already sent someone to find Princess Fang." Mo Ju relayed the news that the little girl sent back to her.
Meng Shi frowned, "No, counting the days, it should be a few days before the attack......"
Mo Ju listened to her words to herself, and her hands and feet were cold in shock, and she said in her heart that the fourth young master vomited blood and it was indeed the Meng family's ghost. Because I don't understand the details here, I don't dare to answer casually. Looking at Meng's expression uneasily, he secretly prayed that the third young master and the fourth young master could save the day.
Otherwise, if the matter is big, the prince will be held accountable, how can the Meng family be fine? Once the head of the Meng family is found, the first unlucky ones are not these people?
The master and servant were silent in different minds, and they heard a report that Jiangmei had returned.
Mo Ju was a little surprised, said hello to the Meng family, and hurriedly walked out of the door, "Didn't I ask you to go to the Second Young Master's Mansion to inquire about the news, why did you come back so quickly?" ”
"I didn't go to the Second Young Master's Mansion, and I turned back halfway through......"
"Why did you turn it back?" Before Jiangmei finished speaking, Mo Ju showed a reproachful look.
Jiang Mei hurriedly explained: "It's not that I don't want to go to the Second Young Master's Mansion, it's that I ran into Princess Fang halfway through, so I had to turn back." ”
Mo Ju was stunned, "Princess Fang has returned home?" ”
"Yes." Jiang Mei nodded, "I think I can't believe the second young master, and despite the second young master's dissuasion, I forcibly brought the third young master back to the palace." It seemed that the second young master didn't know that Princess Fang was suspicious of him, so she followed closely.
As soon as he entered the gate of the palace, he ran into the person sent by Zhang's mother to deliver the letter, saying that the fourth young master was in critical condition. Princess Fang almost fainted after hearing this, and when she had recovered her strength, she ordered the guards to take down the second young master and escort him back to Jingguo Courtyard. ”
Mo Ju was taken aback at this time, and hurriedly pulled Jiangmei to see Meng's family.
Meng Shi listened to Jiang Mei explain what happened in detail, and asked again, "How is the third young master?" ”
The slave maid followed her to the Jingguo Courtyard, and watched as Lianzhu commanded the two mothers-in-law to carry the third young master out of the carriage. The third young master was covered with a cloak, only one arm was exposed, the skin on his hands was blue, his nails were black, and his blood vessels were purple, protruding one by one, just like ...... It's ...... like a bug."
Because the appearance of that hand was really terrifying, Jiang Mei couldn't help but shudder as she spoke, "As for whether it is dead or alive, the slave maid is not clear." ”
Meng Shi heard that the symptoms were correct, and the doubts in his heart were slightly reduced. He was still not very relieved, and instructed Mo Ju: "You go and inquire again." ”
Mo Ju answered "yes", called a little girl who had just left her head to carry a lantern to light the way, and went straight to Jingguo Courtyard.
When I walked near the Jingor Courtyard, I met the little girl who had been sent to inquire about the news.
The little girl was frightened a lot, her little face turned pale, and she trembled non-stop, and after asking for a long time, she only said "I'm going to kill someone", and then she couldn't support it anymore and collapsed to the ground.
Mo Juguang looked at the little girl's appearance and guessed that something was wrong. Instructed the little girl who came with her to help the little girl go back, and she came to the gate of Jingor Courtyard with a wind lantern, looked around for a long time, and saw a person dressed as a doctor running out in a panic.
recognized it as Dr. Wang from Jirentang, because he had seen Meng Shi sick twice, he had some friendship, and saw that there was a mess in the Jingguo courtyard, and there was no one who came out to send it, so he stepped forward to stop Dr. Wang.
After talking for a long time, he came back and told Meng: "...... Doctor Wang said that the third and fourth young masters were poisoned and could not be helped.
Princess Fang fainted when she heard this, and after being woken up by Dr. Wang with a needle, she was like crazy, clamoring to kill the second young master and avenge her son.
Dr. Wang felt that the matter was very important, and he was afraid that he would be implicated, so he slipped out while they were not paying attention......
Princess, the death of a person is a big deal, not to mention that it is the two young masters who died, let's ...... What should we do?
The prince is not in the city, and I am afraid that he will not be able to come back for a while, do you want to send someone to find the prince and ask him to return to the house to preside over the overall situation? ”
When she helped the Meng clan do things, she only thought that the Meng clan wanted to target the Fang clan, but she didn't expect things to develop to this point. Suddenly, he felt that the palace was about to change, and suddenly he felt that the Meng family had caused a monstrous disaster.
Running back all the way, his legs were weak and his voice trembled.
Meng Shi had been silent before, and when she finished speaking, a laugh suddenly overflowed from her mouth, "I originally wanted to put a long line to catch a big fish, but I didn't expect Fang Shi to be so uncontrollable, but it saved me a lot of work." ”
He stood up as he spoke.
Mo Ju immediately became nervous, "Princess, you...... What are you going to do? ”
The corners of Meng's mouth rose, "Sister, I'll help her." ”
