Chapter 3: Too Deep Poisoning
"Mother! How's it going? β
"The poison is not solved, don't talk nonsense about it next time, you were scared to death yesterday."
Early the next morning, Sun Qingqing got up very early.
She sat in front of the bronze mirror, in which a face she was completely unfamiliar with.
It was an incomparably delicate face, a melon seed face. Cherry mouth, apricot eyes and willow eyebrows, skin as white as jade, but the only fly in the ointment is that she is too thin, her thin cheekbones are prominent, and the whole person is like a skeleton.
The concubine of a state's mansion. will be thin into this ghost, which has to make people wonder what is strange about this.
"Miss, it's time to drink the medicine."
A little girl in an emerald green dress looked at her timidly with a medicine bowl in both hands, Sun Qingqing remembered that the person who came to give her medicine in the past was the maid named Lotus yesterday, it seems that her method of killing chickens and monkeys yesterday is still useful.
Today, the lotus flower will not dare to be presumptuous in front of her.
The slender fingers picked up the bowl of black decoction, and Sun Qingqing's eyes were dark, "You can retreat first." β
The girl hesitated, "Madame asked the slave maid to watch the young lady and make sure to drink all the medicine." β
Drink it all?
Sun Qingqing raised her eyes coldly, "I'll step down if I tell you to step down." I'll drink this medicine, just come and put away the bowl later, or I won't mind turning you into the next lotus." β
Swept by her rather threatening glance, the girl immediately softened in fright, and replied in a trembling voice, "The slave knows." β
Then he withdrew.
Ah Ling, who had been standing behind Sun Qingqing, couldn't help but marvel at how her young lady had become so imposing, and couldn't help but praise loudly: "Miss is so amazing!" β
Sun Qingqing stood up and poured all the medicinal juice in the bowl into the potted plant. Then he went to the tea table, picked up a teacup, and poured the medicine residue inside.
"Doesn't Miss drink medicine?" Ah Ling was puzzled, "How can Miss get better if she doesn't drink medicine?" β
Sun Qingqing handed the medicine residue containing the teacup to Ah Ling, "Don't you think that the more I drink, the weaker my body becomes?" β
Ah Ling exclaimed after thinking deeply, and hurriedly covered her mouth, "What does Miss mean..."
"Go out from the side door, take the dregs out and find an outside doctor to study the ingredients, and if possible, bring a doctor back, and remember not to be discovered." Sun Qingqing nodded and continued to command.
Ah Ling nodded and hurried out of the house.
Ah Ling had just left with her front feet, but a woman came over with a bowl of soup and medicine.
This woman is Su's dowry grandmother and Su's heartfelt old servant.
It seems that they still don't feel at ease with themselves.
"Miss has drunk the medicine." Mama Gui smiled charitantly.
"I've already drunk it." Sun Qingqing handed the medicine bowl next to her in front of her.
Mama Gui looked at the empty medicine bowl, full of thoughts, and then raised her eyes and looked at Sun Qingqing with a smile, "That girl was ignorant just now, and she served the wrong lady to the miss, and this bowl is the medicine that the young lady should drink." β
"Miss was punished that day, and she will inevitably have a scar on her body, so you have to drink this medicine, Miss drink it while it's hot." There was a threat in her gaze, and her tone became less affectionate.
Seeing that Sun Qingqing didn't move for a long time, she said again: "This medicine was specially entrusted to Miss by Madame, please Miss must drink it and don't make it difficult for the old man."
Sun Qingqing's head, which had been lowered, suddenly raised, and she looked at Mama Gui with clear eyes, "It's not that I don't want to drink medicine, it's just that I've drunk too much medicine over the years, and I'm afraid of this bitter taste." His brow furrowed slightly, like a child.
Seeing that she was so stupid again, Mama Gui let go of the vigilance in her heart, covered her mouth and smiled, and took out a candy from her arms, "It turns out that Miss is afraid of bitterness, and there is still a sweet tooth here in the old body, and it will not be bitter if you take medicine and then eat it." β
"Then thank you Mama." Sun Qingqing nodded, took the candy from her hand, obeyed her wishes, picked up the bowl of medicine and drank it all.
Mama Gui looked at her neat appearance, took away the empty medicine bowl, and nodded with satisfaction, "Then Miss should rest, and the old body will not disturb Miss." β
Seeing Mama Gui leave, Sun Qingqing turned around and spit out the potted plant.
In an instant, the medicinal juice was spit out completely.
"You have a good plan, I have a wall ladder." Wiping the corners of her lips, Sun Qingqing sneered.
In the afternoon, Ah Ling finally came back, and there was a doctor behind her.
Ah Ling was very cautious, and no one noticed along the way, the two went around in a big circle, and finally arrived at Sun Qingqing's yard.
"Miss, the doctor is here."
Ah Ling hurriedly stood at the door to let the two of them out.
The doctor looked forty or fifty years old, with an inch-long goatee, and his eyes were open, and he looked reliable.
"Which medicine residue was given by the young lady?" The doctor asked worriedly.
Sun Qingqing nodded, recalling the memories of the original owner, and she continued to add, "And I've been drinking it for more than ten years." β
As soon as these words came out, the expression on the doctor's face became more and more complicated.
made Sun Qingqing can't help but lift her heart.
"Doctor, help me see what's wrong with my body." Sun Qingqing stretched out his wrist and handed it to the doctor.
The doctor nodded, put his finger on Sun Qingqing's wrist, his eyes changed, and after a while, he sighed softly.
Sun Qingqing's eyebrows frowned slightly, and she had a bad premonition in her heart, "Is it serious?" β
The doctor nodded, "Your poison has penetrated deep into your heart." β
"Poison?"
"Yes, it's poison." The doctor reached out and stroked his goatee, "This poison is very rare, if I hadn't seen it well, I wouldn't have been able to find the clues." β
Sun Qingqing's face was slightly gloomy, and he couldn't wait to cut the Su family with a thousand knives.
"This poison is very vicious, and it can't be effective for a while. It slowly penetrates into the human body. Destroy people's minds and turn a wise person into stupidity. The doctor looked at Sun Qingqing with complicated eyes, "Miss, you said that you have been drinking this medicine for more than ten years, but it is strange for me to see that you look clear and do not look like a stupid person." β
"Probably... The effect of the drug has not yet taken effect. Sun Qingqing explained.
The doctor took out the medicine residue again and observed it carefully. His face was complicated, "This poison is really rare, I didn't expect to see it today." β
Sun Qingqing lowered her eyes and asked softly, "Can it be cured?" β
The doctor took the dregs back into his arms, pondered for a moment, and said, "I do have a way. If Miss doesn't mind, let's give it a try! β
"It's up to the gentleman."
At this moment, Ah Ling hurriedly ran over.
"Miss, someone's coming."
Sun Qingqing hurriedly asked the doctor to pack up his things and leave, and before leaving, he stuffed a priceless bracelet into him, signaling him not to leak the matter.
As soon as the doctor left, Sun Jiayao and others came.
"What is my sister doing in the house all day? If you stay in the house, everyone will get moldy. Sun Jiayao covered her mouth and chuckled, with a joy on her face that could not be concealed.
"Sister, is there any joy here?"
"What's the joy." Sun Jiayao suddenly looked miserable, as if she had been greatly wronged, she covered her chest with a silk handkerchief, "Your Majesty actually gave me a marriage." β
"Oh? I don't know which son is so blessed to be able to marry his sister? Sun Qingqing looked at her like this, and couldn't help but want to ask which unlucky son it was.
"Who else can it be, it should be King Rui." Sun Jiayao's red lips pursed slightly, and she pulled Sun Qingqing's wrist, "I don't know why Your Majesty gave me a marriage to King Rui, this King Rui is obviously a person that my sister is happy about." β
She looked sincere, as if she really didn't like this Rui King.
Sun Qingqing felt that she was hypocritical.
She clearly remembered that this Sun Jiayao liked King Rui more than the original owner, why did she come over today to behave?
"Congratulations sister, you got what you wanted."
Sun Jiayao shook her head, "If it weren't for His Majesty's order." I really want to give this marriage contract to my sister, and my sister and King Rui are a real match. β
Fool with genius?
This Sun Jiayao is really good at talking.
Rui Wang Li Shengshu, rich in five cars, talented eight buckets, looks also first-class handsome, is recognized as a talent in the Ruiyu Dynasty.
And she, Sun Qingqing, has had a reputation for being a stupid straw bag for more than ten years, and her appearance is not peerless, how can she be as compatible with him?
This Sun Jiayao came to respond to her.
Fortunately, she is not the original owner, so she will not be angry with her. These words were insignificant to her, but seeing that she came here to show off, Sun Qingqing smiled.
"Hehe, sister, don't say it again." Sun Qingqing sneered and distanced herself from her, "My sister is here to wish my sister a hundred years of happiness and an early birth of a noble son." β
Sun Jiayao felt that she had hit a fist on the cotton, and couldn't help but feel bored, "Then borrow my sister's auspicious words." β
Seeing that she was about to turn around and leave, Sun Qingqing seemed to think of something, and said lightly, "Sister, I hope you don't want to be sold, and help you count the money." β
Sun Jiayao's back paused, and secretly said that Sun Qingqing must be jealous of herself, looking back and covering her mouth and smiling, "How come?" This marriage was bought in exchange for my father's exploits. β
"Oh?" Sun Qingqing nodded, and smiled meaninglessly, "That's right, Daddy's merits... That sister has to take care of it. β
It's just a grandfather of a country, a third-grade military attachΓ©.
How can the daughter of a military attachΓ© of the third rank be qualified to marry a relative of the imperial family?
And Rui Wang's conditions are so good, there are so many girls who can be worthy of him, and all of them are no worse than Sun Jiayao, why did he choose her?
The cattiness of this has to make people think deeply.
After Sun Qingqing's suggestion, Sun Jiayao also felt that something was not right, her face was slightly gloomy, and she hurriedly left with someone.
Sun Qingqing walked out of the courtyard, squinting at the dazzling sunlight, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, "There is no such thing as pies in the world." β
Ah Ling, who was standing not far away, looked at Sun Qingqing's chilling temperament, and felt more and more that she was different from the past, the previous miss was a little beast that needed to be protected, and the current miss was an eagle that gave people a sense of security, which was convincing and down-to-earth.
