Chapter 74: Another Scheme
Sure enough, it's poisonous.
This is last night that didn't work out, so continue this morning?
What can I do? Lu E looked at herself, she couldn't eat it, but if she really ate it, she was afraid that Master Ren would die before she died.
She rolled her eyes, picked up the white porridge and held it, stirring it with a spoon with one hand, "It's a little hot." ”
"It's too cold and hurts my stomach, so it's better for the girl to drink it while it's hot."
"That's right, I'm not afraid of heat or cold. Why don't we have a chat, it'll be cold later. Xie Yuqi almost invited her to sit down.
"I want to ask how many young ladies are in your house? Yesterday I saw a pink-faced man about thirteen years old. ”
Lu E was a little helpless, looking at her, she obviously tasted the porridge and blew on her lips, licked it and put it down.
"That's Miss Fang'er, Aunt Lin's daughter. But it was raised under the lap of the lady. ”
"Doesn't your lady have any children?"
Xie Yuqi expressed her incomprehension of this kind of behavior of helping the concubine raise children, she couldn't be so generous.
"Madame has no children."
"But I think your wife is almost thirty years old."
Lu'e nodded, "Our lady had a child before, and I don't know why I miscarried." So, it hasn't been since then. However, the lord still respects the lady very much. The lady is also very virtuous, and raises the sons and ladies in the house under her knees. ”
I see.
Have you ever had a miscarriage?
"The porridge seems to be drinkable, so let's eat it quickly."
"Alas, I can't finish it. Why don't you do it for one and a half? As he spoke, he took a bowl and poured it halfway out.
Lu'e was so frightened that she couldn't do it, and her face turned a little pale, "That's not good, I'm just a subordinate." How can you eat at the same table with your master? ”
"Isn't that also a peasant woman? Everyone is on the same page, you're welcome. ”
'No, no, no, you're a guest. ’
"Are you afraid to drink it, is it because the porridge is not tasty or because there is something in it that shouldn't be there?" The corners of Xie Yuyi's lips hooked up a good-looking smile, and his eyes looked at her simple and honest face.
This little girl is the first time to commit a crime, and she is sweating nervously just by asking like this.
There was an embarrassed smile on his face, "This, this is ordinary white porridge. The girl laughed. ”
"Hahaha, look at you're scared. I'm just kidding you, let's go. Take me to see your lord, and I'll eat breakfast on the way. "Peanuts in one hand.
Xie Yuqi pinched one, threw it high, and learned to pick it up with his mouth as those merry boys in the TV series.
I took it, and I was surprised.
"It's all gone, it's a pity."
"Why don't you raise fish." She threw one into the pond, and the greedy little fish rushed over.
Open your mouth and swallow the peanuts and water together.
Lively swimming, surfaced.
It seems that only poison was put in the porridge. Xie Yuqi ate some peanuts with confidence, and when she arrived in the front hall, she gave the rest to her.
With a smile on his face, he patted the latter's shoulder, "No thanks." ”
Lu'e "......"
In the front hall, Aunt Lin and Mrs. Lin who I saw yesterday were there, as well as Butler Ren, and several women who had not seen each other.
Looking at the dress, it should be Ren County's concubine, looking at it, there are at least five, six, seven or eight. A splendid Luo Yi, and the room suddenly became colorful.
"The woman has seen the lady of the county order."
"Lang Niangzi is polite, please treat my husband."
"Yes."
Xie Yuqi nodded, and entered Ren County's bedroom in the eyes of everyone.
"Because my medical skills are ancestral, I don't want anyone to learn it secretly, and I ask my wife to let the surrounding maids and family members retreat." When the words fell, the people around her suddenly despised her.
is young, and his tone is not small.
I'm still afraid that people will steal from school, and I'm still not sure how many catties and taels there are.
"This ....."
"Madame, the lord is imminent. Just let her see it as a woman, but I'm afraid it's not appropriate. Aunt Lin said, her words were full of dissatisfaction.
Xie Yuqi raised his eyebrows, "Since that's the case, it's better for you to ask for another wisdom." ”
"Really, Lang Niangzi was personally recommended by the wooden shopkeeper. I believe she can, Lang Niangzi is not angry. I'm going to let everyone go. Mrs. Ren smiled softly and raised her hand to tell everyone to step away.
"Thank you, ma'am."
Seeing the white disappear in front of her, Mrs. Ren hooked her lips and smiled, drinking the tea in her hand calmly.
looked at Lu E at the door, the latter trembled, and the next moment was taken down by another purple-clothed maid.
In the house, Ren County Commander has been waiting for a long time. When he saw Xie Yuqi, he was obviously a little surprised: "It's okay." ”
"You can't die, it's you. I'm only 50% sure, you'll have to hold on. The most important thing is that it is still the blood of the person who lowers his head to contact the connection between the son and the mother Gu. ”
Ren County Ling actually smiled, leaned back, "Life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky." Since I dare to let you treat me with a little girl, I have naturally thought of the worst outcome. ”
Xie Yuqi was slightly surprised for a second.
In her eyes, this is undoubtedly a corpse vegetarian meal, but she didn't expect him to be so free and easy in the face of death. Perhaps, it is really myself who is too extreme.
"Don't worry, if you're dead. The women in your house haven't torn me up yet. ”
"It's good to know."
If it weren't for the fact that anesthesia would cause people to fall into mental damage, Xie Yuqi actually wanted to give him an injection.
Think about it, forget it, her current identity and status, things that are too ostentatious are only afraid that they will lead to death.
"I'm going to start digging up the carrion from your legs, bear with me."
"Come on."
She was not polite, she was quick and ruthless, and endured the fishy smell and cut off his charred carrion little by little with a scalpel.
The white bugs inside burrowed out of the muscles.
Thinking of the snake that was cut into two pieces by Lang Yiyan last night, Xie Yuqi almost wanted to vomit uncontrollably.
After a long time, the closed door finally opened.
The woman walked out of it wearing a white mask and gloves, and by this time, it was already afternoon.
Everyone rushed up, and Mrs. Ren walked in front of the crowd, "Lang Niangzi, how is my father-in-law?" ”
"It's been treated, I just connected the meridians for him to remove the toxins, and then he will go through a five-day medicinal bath. I'm going to write you a prescription for five days' worth of medicine according to the recipe above. Start tonight and wake up tomorrow. ”
"Yes, Lu'e. You go grab the medicine. ”
Miss Fang'er pushed the door open, and a smell of blood wafted from inside, carrying a fishy smell. She couldn't help but vomit on the spot.
"This is still a Gu worm."
"It's disgusting."
Xie Yuqi smiled and said nothing, saying that he was also a little tired, so he made an excuse and returned to the room.
Closing the door, she threw herself on the quilt, and soon fell asleep with some hunger and the fatigue of the day.
I didn't even know that Lang Yiyan was back.
Smelling the smell of meat, she slowly opened her eyes, and an oiled paper was wrapped in front of her. Upward, there was a rare gentle smile on his grim face.
"How's it going?"
"It's been dealt with, but the Gu worms haven't been taken out yet. So, before sunset tomorrow, we still have to find out the murderer. Xie Yuqi got up and lay on his lap.
Lang Yiyan pinched her somewhat tired little face, "How is your body?" Still uncomfortable. ”
"It's better, it's just hungry."
"I know, so I bought you roast chicken." He said.
But Xie Yumi's eyes lit up, but his face wrinkled, "But I don't want to do anything, but I'm hungry." ”
"Lazy woman~" He smiled sullenly, resigned himself to his fate, opened the oil paper bag, tore off a chicken leg, pinched it with his hand and fed it to her lips.
She just had to open her mouth.
"At breakfast today, they poisoned the porridge."
"You didn't eat it."
"Of course I didn't eat the poison. Stupid. Chewing on the chicken in her mouth, she spoke a little slurred.
Lang Yiyan breathed a sigh of relief.
He began to talk about his discovery today, "I chased him to the place last night, and found a trace of blood. I think he was also seriously injured, and looking at the footprints, it should be a man. Moreover, it also carries a plum petal. I think it's supposed to be someone from Fuchu. ”
Speaking of plum blossoms, she suddenly remembered the bright - cinnabar plum.
"I suspect that there is something under the plum tree, Xianggong, you will take advantage of the lack of people to dig and dig later."
"Hmm."
Xie Yuqi smiled and pushed the chicken leg to his lips.
After a while, someone came to deliver water again, and Lang Yiyan jumped on the beam. I watched a few maids bring hot water, towels, toiletries, etc.
"Girl, you should rest early today."
"Thank you."
It's thoughtful, it's just that Xie Yuqi has always disliked bathing outside and has no sense of security.
The tub was filled with plum petals, and the white bath water seemed to be mixed with some milk. Sure enough, it's a rich family, such a luxury.
"Do you want to take a bath? I'll keep it for you. ”
"No, I'm insecure."
She smiled lightly and waited with Lang Yiyan until dark.
The lamp was in hand, and Ren Guanjia hurriedly knocked on the door again, "Lang Niangzi, are you there?" ”
"Yes."
"The old man suddenly vomited blood, Lang Niang, go and take a look." Xie Yuqi hurriedly got up and opened the door, "What's the matter?" I had stopped the bleeding in the morning. ”
"I don't know, I suddenly vomited blood after the medicated bath. Please also ask Lang Niangzi to come with me. ”
Xie Yuqi nodded and closed the door.
Butler Ren took him to the bedroom, Xie Yuqi heard the crying of the room, and Ren Xianling seemed to lie motionless on the hospital bed.
The carpet, the quilts, and the clothes were all bright red blood.
She tentatively touched her pulse with her hand, "It's out of breath!" What's going on, I obviously treated it according to the method taught in the book. Surprised and frightened, the woman took a few steps back and bumped into a warm object.
It turned out to be Aunt Lin, and her eyes were red from crying.
Seeing Xie Yuqi at this moment, Yang Shou, who did not hesitate, gave her a slap in the face, "It's all you, if it weren't for you, a quack, our master wouldn't have died." ”
"Smack."
There was a burning pain on his face, and a trace of bright red blood overflowed from the corner of Xie Yuqi's lips.
The fair-skinned little face was full of panic, "I don't believe it, I want to see if it's going to be scum." ”
Mrs. Ren pinched her handkerchief and cried, "If I had known, I should have sent two people to follow you, and I wouldn't have given you the opportunity to kill our master." ”
"Madame's words have loopholes, if it is really me who returned the county order. How could I not leave and stay in the house? ”
"That's because you haven't gotten the money yet." Aunt Lin added.
"That's even more wrong, if I really came for the silver, I should treat Ren County Commander even more. I'm a peasant, how could I joke with such a big thing. ”
The woman replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.
Mrs. Ren raised her eyebrows, this Xie Yuqi is really the dean's mouth, and his mouth is really sharp.
"Because you, a quack, actually can't cure our master at all, you colluded with the wooden shopkeeper and deliberately put the master to death." Steward Ren said, and asked people to go and bring the scum in.
"There is a flavored herb called black grass in it, which should never be used with rhino horn. But you were prescribed in the prescription, and even the medicine boy in Baicaotang admitted it. ”
After speaking, a medicine boy in a green shirt came in.
This person, Xie Yuqi, has also seen it, and it is the medicine boy who grabbed the medicine for the wooden shopkeeper.
