Chapter 112: Poisoning

"Grandpa Guo, Brother Yu and his wife are on the road in the middle of the night, and to this day, it has been three full days. I don't know if they have settled down in the clan. ”

Mrs. Cui said worriedly as she put the empty bowl into the food box she had just brought over.

"Madam, don't worry, Brother Yu is not too young, and it's time for him to take charge alone." Xie Guogong patted the back of Mrs. Cui's hand gently.

"My mother is worried." Mrs. Cui smiled very reluctantly, her husband's attitude tonight was too gentle. Some words have been in Mrs. Cui's heart for a long time, and she is not unhappy.

Mrs. Cui's eyes drooped slightly, and she said softly: "Grandpa Guo, I am a very daughter-in-law, so I shouldn't talk about the elders in vain." But I'm also a mother. ”

Mrs. Cui paused, a trace of tears appeared in her eyes, and said lightly: "Brother Yu finally found a decent messenger in the ministry, although he is only a foreigner from the fifth grade, but he can have such achievements at this age, and the concubine body is already very satisfied......"

"Madame......" Although Cui Shi did not finish speaking, Xie Guogong understood the grievances in her heart. He took the handkerchief from Cui's hand and gently wiped the tears from Cui's face.

"Madam, I know in my heart that I have wronged you." A helpless sigh escaped from Xie Guogong's lips.

"Grandpa Guo, I know your difficulties. As a son of man, you should abide by filial piety. Mrs. Cui wiped her eyes with her sleeve and said in a dumb voice: "Mother is a strong person, and she has always allowed her younger generations to disobey her. I also know that Brother Yu's qualifications are ordinary, so it is better to be astonishing. Although he is the eldest grandson, Brother Yu's status in his mother's heart is not even half of that of Jiang Ming......"

"Grandpa Guo, I don't blame my mother for favoring one over the other, after all, ten fingers have lengths and shorts, and it is human nature that my mother will have a preference. But Grandpa Guo ......"

Mrs. Cui said heartbrokenly: "It took Brother Yu ten years to climb to his current position, just because of a dream of his mother, just a few words ruined Brother Yu's future, and he can only stay in his ancestral home for the rest of his life, living on the harvest of the fields and shops, and the concubine is unwilling!" ”

Mrs. Cui said that at the end, she cried bitterly: "As long as I think of the night when Brother Yu left, he looked at me, and his eyes were full of pleading, and my heart was like a knife......"

"Madam, it's all my incompetence as a father......" Xie Guogong poured countless efforts into his eldest son, but because of his mother's few words, he wanted to let Brother Yu go back to guard the land of Sangzi, Xie Guogong was even more uncomfortable than Mrs. Cui.

Facing Mrs. Cui's heartbroken tears, Xie Guogong only felt that his heart was like a twist, his throat itched, and he opened his mouth to spurt out a mouthful of blood.

Mrs. Cui and Xie Guogong are very close.

Looking at the bright red blood sprayed by her husband on her collar, Mrs. Cui's eyes were glazed, and her senses suddenly became dull, as if time in the whole world had slowed down because of this.

Mrs. Cui raised her hand and wiped her cheeks, and after seeing the blush on her fingertips, she suddenly came to her senses and threw herself towards Xie Guogong: "Grandpa Guo, what's wrong with you?" Don't scare me! ……”

Mrs. Cui panicked, and her sharp tone had already broken the tone.

Xie Guogong didn't expect that he would vomit blood in anger, he was just about to comfort Mrs. Cui for a few words, he opened his mouth, and then another mouthful of blood spit out......

"Grandpa Guo!" Mrs. Cui shouted sharply: "Someone! Come on! Go and call the doctor to come over......"

"Husband, madam......" As soon as Xie Guogong said a few words, he felt that the world was spinning in front of him. It was as if his internal organs had been stirred together by a large hand, and the pain made it difficult for him to breathe......

"Vegetables, vegetables" Xie Guogong moved his lips with difficulty, but found that he couldn't say a word.

At this moment, the guard pushed the door and entered: "Madam, what happened?" ”

Mrs. Cui wiped the tears from her face, forced herself to calm down, and she said quickly: "Grandpa Guo vomited blood, you immediately let the house doctor come to the small study; Also, take the post of Grandpa Guo, and go to Liu's Mansion to ask Imperial Doctor Liu, people's lives are at stake, and they can't be delayed! ”

At the end, Mrs. Cui's eyes were stained with a bit of anger.

Although it was not clear at night, the blood on Mrs. Cui's placket was extremely conspicuous, not to mention that Xie Guogong also fell on the table, where did the guards dare to delay, they answered "yes" and hurriedly ran out.

Mrs. Cui retracted her gaze, she used her weak shoulders to help Xie Guogong who was lying on the table, let her husband lean on her shoulder, stretched out her left hand, and pinched Xie Guogong's middle ......

"Grandpa Guo, don't scare the concubine, wake up......" Mrs. Cui had tears in her eyes.

Xie Guogong didn't seem to hear it, and the whole person was unconscious.

The wait time is extremely long. Xie Guogong's eyes were closed, his face was like gold paper, and he looked like he was about to breathe at any time.

Mrs. Cui bit her lower lip out of the blood, and after a while, she heard a messy footsteps in the courtyard.

The doctor rushed in with the medicine box, and because he was walking in too haste, he lost one of the shoes on his feet.

"Quick, quickly help Grandpa Guo to the bed." Sun Relun is the master of Yin Juanbai, the head of the Tai Hospital, who has stayed in Xie Guogong's mansion for five years, has excellent medical skills and is taciturn, and has always been deeply trusted by Xie Guogong and Mrs. Cui.

Seeing Sun Relun coming at this moment, Mrs. Cui immediately found the backbone, and hurriedly instructed the guards to carefully move Xie Guogong to the only boxwood four-poster bed in the study.

"Madam, please let me go, I'll check Grandpa Guo's pulse first." Sun Relan couldn't care about the shoes that had fallen off, he was wearing only white silk socks on one foot, and walked barefoot to the edge of the bed.

Mrs. Cui hurriedly gave up a place for Sun Relun, and she glanced at the little maid in the house.

Seeing this, the little guy moved a chair for Sun Relan with understanding.

Sun Relan leaned over and opened Xie Guogong's eyelids, looked at his loose eyes, and forcibly broke Xie Guogong's mouth, looked at his tongue, and then put a hand on Xie Guogong's inch mouth, felt it for a while, and was suddenly shocked: "Madam, this, this ......"

"Doctor Sun has something to say...... "Mrs. Cui immediately had a bad premonition in her heart, she pinched her palm fiercely, and said seemingly calmly.

"Ma'am, then I'll be straight to the point. Did Grandpa Guo ingest poison by mistake? Sun Relun frowned, Xie Guogong's tongue was black, his eyes were dilated, his pulse was short, and he was jumping and intermittent, which was clearly a sign of poisoning.

There was an unbelievable look in Mrs. Cui's eyes, and she said with a shocked face: "Doctor Sun, you mean, Grandpa Guo was poisoned?" How is this possible? ”

"Madam, in my humble opinion: Grandpa Guo's pulse is rapid, the rhythm is irregular, and it stops and recurs, just like a finch pecking at its beak, which is a typical finch pecking pulse, indicating that Grandpa Guo has been poisoned into his lungs and his temper has been ......."

Mrs. Cui's mind was spinning for a while, and Sun Re said what she said again, she couldn't hear clearly, she threw herself on the bed, and said with tears in her eyes: "But there is still salvation?" ”

"Madam, forgive me for my incompetence, I am not proficient in poison." Sun Relun shook his head. If it was an ordinary illness, he could still work hard for a moment or two, but the poison ...... Sun Re couldn't even tell what kind of poison Xie Guogong was.

Mrs. Cui's eyes were stunned, she turned her head slightly, and when she saw the food box on the table of the Eight Immortals, her eyebrows twisted, and she shouted: "Where are the guards?!" ”

"Madame!" The guards guarding outside the house immediately rushed in.

Mrs. Cui's face was grim, and she commanded in a cold voice: "Fence off the small kitchen in the inner courtyard for me, no one is allowed to enter or leave, and whoever dares to disobey the order will be killed directly." And all the people who are on duty in the small kitchen tonight, interrogate me separately, be sure to pry their mouths open, whether they live or die! ”

"Yes!" The guards replied in unison, this one full of murderous aura and chilling.

Mrs. Cui looked at her unconscious husband on the bed, she blinked the wetness in her eyes, and bowed to Sun Relun: "Doctor Sun, the so-called 'do your best and obey the destiny of heaven', I have already sent someone to ask Imperial Doctor Liu from Tai Hospital, and please prescribe a prescription, be sure to let Grandpa Guo hold on for a while." ”

"Madame, please get up." Sun Relun stretched out his hand to help Mrs. Cui, and he said solemnly: "Please rest assured, Mrs., the doctor is benevolent, and I should do my best." ”

After Sun Relun finished speaking, he picked up the brush, wrote a prescription with "brush, brush, brush", and handed it to Mrs. Cui.

"Madam, you decoct the medicine according to the prescription first, and I will give the needle to Grandpa Guo."

Mrs. Cui took it with both hands and handed it to her cronies: "Alu, you watch it personally, it is a matter of Grandpa Guo's life, and you can't make a mistake." ”

"Madame, don't worry." The woman named Alu hurriedly took the recipe and went.

Mrs. Cui propped her hands on the edge of the bed, took advantage of the situation to stand up straight, her steps weakly stepped aside, and stared at Sun Renon to give her husband an injection.

Sun Relun took out the cloth bag containing the golden needle, burned the tip of the needle on the candle flame, and the first needle was directly pierced on Xie Guogong's Baihui acupoint......

After applying dozens of needles in a row, a dense layer of cold sweat oozed from Sun Relun's head.

Seeing this, the maid hurriedly helped him wipe the sweat off his head lightly. Her movements were extremely careful, lest she would block Sun Relun's vision and delay Sun Relun's needle to Xie Guogong.

I don't know how many needles went down, Xie Guogong opened his eyes slowly, his body shook violently, and another mouthful of blood spit out.

As soon as Mrs. Cui's face showed a hint of surprise, her eyes froze. After Xie Guogong vomited blood, the person passed out again.

It's just that the blood he vomited this time was different from the previous two times, it was black blood.

"Okay, madam, Grandpa Guo's condition has stabilized for the time being, let's wait for Imperial Doctor Liu to come over." Sun Relan breathed a sigh of relief, he accepted the golden needle, took the handkerchief handed over by the maid, wiped the sweat on his palm, and the whole person was full of a sense of relief.

Mrs. Cui understood the meaning of Sun Re's words.

Although Grandpa Guo's condition stabilized, it did not improve. But Sun Relun has tried his best, and Mrs. Cui is not good at demanding too much. She barely managed to squeeze out a smile on her pale face: "Thank you, Doctor Sun." ”
