Chapter 46: Xingshi Asks for Guilt
Hua Chen blinked her eyes and sorted out the information she received, only to know that this housekeeper actually asked her to heal, although she claimed to be a very powerful mage, but she couldn't heal.
At this time, Hua Chen really sat on the edge of the bed, she looked at her wife's soul, and found that this soul was still in her body, but there were already some signs of leaving the body.
Hua Chen found that there was a lump of black in her wife's stomach, and she stretched out her slender hand to press it.
The lady of the castle lord suddenly threw herself up, tilted her head, and vomited.
Everything I ate in the morning came out of my stomach in one go, and the stench of the vomit was there, and there was obviously some food in it that was not normal.
"Who did this? Whose Lady Serves in the Morning? When the lord saw what was on the ground, he immediately turned around and went out, and called the maidservant who was waiting, and the rebuke of the lord could be heard in the house.
"It turns out that Madame has been poisoned...... "The butler muttered to himself, enduring the foul smell of the ground.
Last time, Mrs. died like this, and the doctors didn't know what was going on, and no one knew what happened until she was buried, and it turned out that someone had poisoned her food.
Hua Chen held her breath, she couldn't smell the strange smell in the room, she saw that her wife was faintly awake, so she got up and walked out. The butler followed, with a sad expression.
"I didn't expect Mrs. to be poisoned, who was so ruthless that he wanted to poison Mrs.?" The housekeeper was very distressed, he had been in the house for many years, and his wife treated him very well, if he was reluctant to give up on anyone in Guxu City, the first was the city lord and the second was the city lord's wife.
Now that he knew that the city lord's wife was poisoned, he was very remorseful, why didn't he find out about it in the first place, and let his wife die unjustly and go to the underworld.
"Fairy, when I die, can you help me go to Madame's grave to burn some paper?" The housekeeper sent Hua Chen back to the courtyard, his eyes moist all the way.
"Your wife's bones are cold, and this soul will not know what happened in the past and present lives after leaving the body, so what's the use of burning paper?" Hua Chen was puzzled.
The housekeeper wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, "When Madame was alive, the old slave did not serve Madame well, no matter what happened to Madame after her death, the old slave wanted to do his last thought, and only hoped that Madame could live a life of children and grandchildren in the next life." ”
"I promise you it is."
"Thank you, fairy." The housekeeper settled Hua Chen, and hurried back to the city lord's courtyard, just to see if the city lord's wife had woken up at this time.
"This mortal is so interesting, he won't know anything when he dies, so what's the use of all that paper money." Hua Chen looked at the direction where the housekeeper was gone, and couldn't help but speak.
The maids in the courtyard of the city lord were busy, cleaning, leading the doctor into the door, serving tea and water, and being taught by the city lord, and the whole courtyard was lively.
The doctors who were called back felt very strange, this was obviously a lack of skills, but they didn't expect to wake up in a blink of an eye, it turned out that the food was choked in their throats?
The lord of the city accompanied the lady of the lord until the evening, when the lights went out, and the lord came out of the room alone.
"You serve the good lady, I'm afraid that getting up at night will make the lady sleep unstable, so I will go to the study to rest tonight, you are all smart." The city queen said with a grimace.
The maids below all knew that the city lord was worried that the city lord's wife would have another accident, so they all lowered their heads and agreed, and they didn't dare to be negligent anymore.
When the lord of the city came out of the courtyard, he walked in the direction of the study, and went around and around, but he came to his sister's courtyard.
After dispersing the maids in the courtyard, the city lord pushed the door directly and walked into Mingji's room.
All of a sudden, the lights came on.
"I knew you were coming." Mingji stood in front of the candle with a fire primer, and the expression on her face seemed to be smiling rather than smiling, as if she was crying instead of crying.
"How can you kill innocents indiscriminately?" The city lord lowered his voice and said, with displeasure on his face, obviously he had come to ask the master for sin.
"Am I killing innocents? What evidence do you have? Is it because no one else wants to kill her but me? Mingji had stubbornness on her face, and there seemed to be endless grievances and reasons in her heart.
Mingji's stubbornness made the city lord unbearable to ask anything, he knew that the poison in the city lord's wife's food must not be able to escape with Mingji, but he also knew that he couldn't continue, her body was still very weak, if something happened, he was afraid that something would happen.
"Ji'er, I know your feelings, but Ah Xiu is really innocent, I already owe her a lot, can you be more lenient with her?" Ming Shangjun hugged Ming Ji's arm and looked at her affectionately.
"Then you have been staying with me for the past few days, and I will spare her." Ming Ji's eyes rolled, and the grievances on her face disappeared in an instant, as if she had already calculated, just to keep the city lord on her side.
"Okay, I'll follow you whatever you say."
A smile appeared on Ming Ji's face, beaming with pride, she was sure that Ming Shangjun would definitely follow her,
There was a low singing voice from the city lord's mansion out of nowhere, and the singing voice was gentle and low, as if it was telling about endless pain and suffering, and it seemed that he was full of thoughts, and he didn't know who to talk to.
At night, the city lord's wife suddenly had a high fever, and the maids who were waiting around her were in a hurry, and went to the study to look for the city lord, but there was no trace of them, and the maids didn't know what to do, so they could only go and find the doctor first.
The commotion woke the sleeping lord of the city, and he got up and dressed, ready to go and see what was going on.
A pair of hands around his waist beside him, "Don't go." Ming Ji didn't use too much strength, she was more coquettish and wanted to be coquettish.
"I'm going to see what's going on, maybe there's a fire." The city lord obviously heard that it was related to the city lord's wife, and he was a little uneasy, so he wanted to go and see what was going on.
Not only did he hear it, but Mingji also heard the voice of the maid outside, "You go." She let go suddenly, turned around and forced herself into the bed, and looked angry.
The city lord hurriedly stepped forward and coaxed, "Okay, I'm not going, let the people handle it themselves." After saying that, he lay down on the bed again, covered with the quilt, and gently coaxed the people beside him, completely ignoring what was going on outside.
The doctor on the side of the city lord's wife prescribed medicine for the lady to take, until the doctor left, the maids did not find where the city lord was, and the personal servants around the city lord appeared in the end, saying that the city lord may be drunk and sleeping somewhere, and it will appear when the morning comes, so that the maids should not worry.
It is said that the way of heaven is good for reincarnation, and it will never let go of any bad person, and this may just be said to relieve my anger, but it is actually useless.
Early the next morning, the city lord did not come to see the city lord's wife, but a guest came to the courtyard of the city lord's wife
"Madam, Miss Cousin is here." With a smile on their faces, the maids brought in a delicate girl through the door.
This girl is twenty-eight years old, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, red lips and white teeth, shining eyes, a fairy bun, wearing purple and gold flowing clothes, walking with a faint fragrance on her body, and the white crane shoes on her feet are also quite eye-catching.
"I've been married for many days, and I can't keep calling Miss Cousin." The city lord's wife smiled when she saw the visitor, but she also told the maid beside her not to make a mistake.
"Auntie, I heard that you were unwell, so Cai'er brought some supplements to visit." As soon as the woman walked in, she looked at the city lord's wife who was lying on the bed, and saw that the city lord's wife had a sallow face and a very bad complexion, her face flashed with anger, and then a smile appeared on her face.
"Madam, it's true, the slave maid just saw a lot of ginseng, and I'm afraid there are no such big ginseng in the city lord's mansion." The maid exaggerated and said that this maid married into the city lord's mansion with the city lord's wife, and she grew up with the city lord's wife before, so she was naturally much closer.
"You girl, go and pour me a cup of tea." The woman pretended to be angry and glanced at the maid.
"That's right, how did the slave forget such an important thing, Miss Cousin sat down first, and the slave went to boil water." After the maid finished speaking, she hurried out the door.
Seeing that there was no one else beside her, the woman sat on a stool next to the bed.
This woman is a member of the city lord's wife's mother's family, married two years ago, married to a man with a half-immortal body, and has a high status in the family, the woman's surname is Liu, and she is the fourth in the family, so she is called Liu Sicai, although her name is not as good as one-tenth of her beauty, but it is also extremely good.
When the man with the body of a half-immortal came to ask for marriage, he specified that he wanted to marry Liu Sicai, because just by listening to the name, he knew that she had four talents that no one could match, and she was a person worthy of him.
This Miss Liu is really outstanding, she is very proficient in calligraphy and painting from the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is familiar with astronomy and geography, she knows sunny and rainy days when she looks at the sky, and she is also very intelligent, and she has won the love of many people when she is young.
The closest person to this Liu Sicai in the family is the city lord's wife, Liu Sicai said that she has always wanted to be good at riding horses and archery like her aunt, and she is heroic, which is excellent.
It's just that Liu Sicai has been delicate since he was a child, and he can't practice horseback archery no matter what, which has become a regret in his heart.
"Auntie, your complexion is so bad, but your uncle abuses you on weekdays?" Liu Sicai got up, took a bottle of healing pills, and handed it to the city lord's wife.
The city lord's wife didn't eat, she put it aside, and the smile on her face was a little faint.
"Shang Jun has always been very good to me, you have been prejudiced against Shang Jun since you were a child, I didn't expect you to think about him like this now, if you let Shang Jun hear it, you still think that I said bad things about him behind his back."
"Auntie, you have always been someone Cai'er admires, and Cai'er doesn't want her aunt to be wronged all the time." Liu Sicai hates the city lord of this lonely city, she naturally has a reason to hate it, but it is not good to tell her aunt.
"I am the wife of the city lord, and everyone knows that Shang Jun has a very good relationship with me, how can I be wronged?" The city lord's wife obviously didn't want to talk about these topics, "It's rare for you to come, but I'm a little tired." She rubbed her temples, her face showing exhaustion.
