Chapter 71: Ghost Mushroom
Xia Jinse said with a straight face: "Father, I heard that Aunt Shen almost stabbed the eldest prince, and I was worried that something would happen, so I came to take a look." ”
Remembering that she had been treating her eldest son recently, and it was also improving, Xia Yanxiu's face softened a little and said, "Aunt Shen went crazy and offended the eldest prince, and her crime should be punished, it's none of your business." But it's okay if you come, Ruxue was stabbed by Aunt Shen, and the eldest prince doesn't know if it's okay, so you hurry up and check on them. ”
She is here to save the Shen family, but she is not here to be a doctor for others.
Xia Jinse glanced at Xia Ruxue, her face was pale, and she was still restless and leaning against Lan Jingcheng. Lan Jingcheng wrapped her waist around her waist, and her other hand gently supported her arm, and the two stood together, as if they were an intimate pair, which was enviable.
"Second sister and eldest prince, you ......" she looked surprised.
As Xia Jinse's gaze looked over, the two reacted and hurriedly separated.
"The eldest lady has excellent medical skills, please take a look at Ruxue." Lan Jingcheng spoke, gentle and elegant, his voice was gentle and like a spring breeze, and the concern in his tone was just right, which made Xia Ruxue's heart skip a beat.
"Big sister, I'm fine, it's just a little bruise, you better show it to the eldest prince first."
Xia Ruxue glanced at Lan Jingcheng gratefully, and said softly: "In order to protect me, the eldest prince doesn't know if he is injured, the eldest sister will check the eldest prince first, otherwise I will feel uneasy." ”
Hearing this, he almost got goosebumps on the ground, and Xia Jinse said directly: "I think the eldest prince is fine, since the second sister, since you are just bruised, it is not a big deal to think about it, but Aunt Shen is about to faint, it is important to save Aunt Shen first." ”
"Nonsense! Aunt Shen offended the eldest prince, which is a capital crime, why save her? It's just right to die! Xia Yanxiu's face immediately sank: "Come on, don't ...... Aunt Shen yet."
Xia Jinse interrupted Xia Yanxiu's words: "Wait, father! Although Aunt Shen stabbed the eldest prince, she had been sick for many years, but she was afraid that she had a mad attack, so she couldn't control herself, and she didn't die for her crimes. Not to mention ......"
She glanced at Xia Ruxue and said, "The second sister knew that Aunt Shen was sick, and she brought the eldest prince here, which caused Aunt Shen to hurt people." Speaking of which, the second sister is also responsible. ”
Xia Ruxue didn't expect that she had been charged, and she suddenly looked aggrieved.
Lan Jingcheng felt distressed when he saw her crying appearance, and hurriedly said: "It's no wonder that Ruxue is not to blame, it is the prince who wants to walk around after eating, and by the way, he eats and eats, and Ruxue took the prince to visit the Prime Minister's Mansion." I didn't want to, but I walked here and almost had an accident. ”
Xia Jinse immediately said: "Father, since the eldest prince is not to blame, why not forgive Aunt Shen......"
At this moment, Zhao suddenly said, "Jin Se, you obviously know that Aunt Shen is not crazy, why do you want to help her exonerate?" Don't say you forgot what happened in Lilac Garden the other day. ”
"Shen is not sick?"
Xia Yanxiu was surprised and stunned: "What the hell is going on?" It's getting more and more presumptuous, so many years of madness, it's pretending, what does she want to do? ”
Unexpectedly, the Zhao family kept sending people to keep an eye on her, and Xia Jinse was not in a hurry and said: "Since my mother knows, then I can't let Aunt Shen die." It is impossible for her to hurt her second sister for no reason, let alone assassinate the eldest prince, there must be a reason for this, if she doesn't find out, she will be killed, in case Aunt Shen is instructed by someone, wouldn't she let go of the murderer who really wanted to kill the second sister and the eldest prince? ”
Seeing that the Shen family had fallen into a coma, Xia Jinse was worried that she would really die, so he said directly: "Chasing the clouds, shooting the moon, carry Aunt Shen in, I will check her immediately." ”
"Xia Jinse, you ......"
"I've said it so clearly, why does my father want to stop it?"
Xia Jinse turned his head to look directly at Lan Jingcheng and said, "Great Prince, do you think my words make sense?" ”
Unexpectedly, he actually asked him, Lan Jingcheng thought about it, and said with his hand: "Well, the eldest lady's words are also reasonable, this prince will not wronged anyone, and he will not let go of those with ill intentions." In this case, there is Miss Lao. ”
Since Lan Jingcheng spoke, Xia Yanxiu couldn't say anything, and watched Xia Jinse's two girls lift the Shen family and quickly enter the house.
In the bedroom, Shen was lying on the bed, already delirious, and he didn't respond to calling her, but he still muttered to himself.
Xia Jinse took a closer look, what 'evil ghost', 'kill you', 'burned' these words continued to emerge from Shen's mouth, her heart moved, and she quickly opened Shen's eyelids to observe.
The pupils have dilated, even the skin is slightly flushed, and the pulse is beating faster than normal, which is indeed a sign of poisoning.
"What did Aunt Shen do before and what did she eat?" She asked the fluttering flotsam next to her.
"Aunt Shen, she just had lunch an hour ago, and after a while, she said that she saw the baby, and she was still ...... The slave thought she was upset again, and didn't take it seriously. Who knew that Aunt Shen began to talk nonsense, saying that there were evil ghosts and someone was going to kill her, which was terrifying. ”
Piao Su said the symptoms of Aunt Shen's seizure, and then Aunt Shen ran out, but she happened to meet the second lady and the eldest prince coming over, Aunt Shen was fierce, and then there was something behind, and it was useless for her to even stop it.
"Ask the eldest lady to save Aunt Shen." She pleaded.
What a faithful girl! After following the Shen family for so many years, I didn't enjoy the blessings, but I suffered a lot. Now that it is difficult to protect himself, he still helps the Shen family to intercede, and the Shen family is lucky enough to have such a girl.
"What did Aunt Shen eat for lunch?" Xia Jinse asked again.
"It's just some ordinary side dishes, bean sprouts, mushrooms and whatever."
Mushroom? Xia Jinse frowned when he heard this, could it be that he was poisoned by eating poisonous mushrooms?
At this moment, Chaiyun went out and came in again and said, "Miss, the slave maid went to check the kitchen just now, and the dishes and chopsticks were washed, but she didn't find anything." But I picked up a piece of this ...... on the ground."
She pointed her fingers, picked up a piece of soft black and handed it to Xia Jinse to see.
"It's ...... See the green hands! Xia Jinse sniffed it and immediately recognized it.
It is a delicious mushroom that is highly poisonous and hallucinating. Once it is not fried and cooked thoroughly, it is easy to be poisoned after eating, and in severe cases, it may even lead to death.
There was no time to ask more, Xia Jinse immediately lavaged Shen's stomach.
At that moment just now, Shooting Moon had already brought the medicine box, Xia Jinse quickly took out the stomach tube, skillfully smeared it with paraffin oil, and inserted it into Shen's nostrils. All these fluttering flakes were dumbfounded, and they didn't know what she was doing at all, but they didn't dare to ask, they just looked stupidly.
There was a voice outside, it seemed that someone wanted to come in, and without Xia Jinse's orders, Shooting the Moon and Chasing the Clouds had already gone out to stop it. The two of them blocked the door, and even Xia Yanxiu didn't give face.
Lan Jingcheng was a little curious, and wanted to go in to see how Xia Jinse saved people, but he also knew that these two girls were given to Xia Jinse by Ninth Uncle Lan Beichen, so it was hard to say anything, so he could only wait outside.
"You two girls, you don't allow us to go in!"
Only Shen Shi was unhappy, and said angrily: "Since she is saving people inside, why can't we go and see it?" Is she what the hell she is doing, and she doesn't dare to let people know? ”
Shooting the moon said coldly: "Miss saves people, naturally she can't be disturbed, if the eldest lady hinders the young lady and causes Aunt Shen to die, can the eldest lady take this responsibility?" ”
"You ......" Shen was speechless, he didn't expect a girl to dare to contradict her like this.
"Mother also cares about Aunt Shen, how can she hinder it?" Xia Ruxue had a cold face and said with a little displeasure: "Could it be that the eldest sister is absolutely sure?" If something happens and Aunt Shen can't be saved, shouldn't the eldest sister be responsible? ”
Who knows, as soon as the words fell, Xia Jinse had already come out.
"Don't worry about the second sister, Aunt Shen is out of danger."
When everyone heard this, their faces were different, and Xia Jinse smiled slightly: "If you care about Aunt Shen, you can go in at this time, but remember to be quiet, don't quarrel with her." ”
Xia Yanxiu had been waiting for this moment for a long time, and walked in first with a flick of his sleeves.
A group of people suddenly packed the small room to the brim, and they could barely turn around. But everyone had their own thoughts, and even more curious people wanted to know what was going on, and none of them left.
Glancing at Shen's unconscious appearance, Xia Yanxiu wrenched his face and said, "Didn't you say it's okay?" Why haven't you woken up yet, how can you ask her? ”
Xia Jinse said: "Father doesn't need to ask, because Aunt Shen is also a victim, she accidentally ate poisonous mushrooms, so she hallucinated, and mistook the second sister and the eldest prince for monsters, so she did those things." ”
"Poisonous mushrooms? What mushroom is so powerful that it can also hallucinate? Su asked in surprise.
"Ridiculous, how can anyone be poisoned by eating mushrooms, the old man has eaten mushrooms for so many years, why is it okay?" Xia Yanxiu didn't believe it, and his old face was rigid and cold.
"My father is in a high position and power, and he is the head of the family in the Prime Minister's Mansion, of course no one dares to harm my father. But Aunt Shen is different, maybe some people want her to die. ”
Xia Jinse sneered, glanced at the people around him, and quickly took their expressions into his eyes: "It seems that my father doesn't believe what I said, so go and ask Mr. Guan to come." He is an imperial chef, so he can naturally distinguish poisonous mushrooms, and it will be clear if you ask him. ”
Lan Jingcheng nodded: "It's okay, let the imperial chef come and recognize it, and the truth will be revealed." ”
Xia Yanxiu didn't have anything to say, so he asked Guan Ping to come.
"Xia Xiang." After a while, Guan Ping came and arched his hand at Xia Yanxiu.
Xia Yanxiu explained the situation and said to Guan Ping: "Mr. Guan is tired to confirm whether Aunt Shen has been poisoned by eating poisonous mushrooms by mistake." Is there really a mushroom in the world that can cause hallucinations if eaten? ”
"Xia Xiang, wait a minute."
Guan Ping stepped forward and checked the mushroom slice that Xia Jinse left on the plate, and immediately his face changed slightly: "It's not wrong, this is a highly poisonous mushroom!" It grows mostly in sunny mountain forests and tastes delicious, but eating it will produce terrible hallucinations, so it also has another name, called ghost mushroom. ”
As soon as they heard this name, all the ladies were startled, and Xia Jinse had just heard that the people here called Jianshou Qing a ghost mushroom, so it was conceivable that they were afraid of it.
"Father, it seems that someone deliberately caused Aunt Shen to eat ghost mushrooms, the purpose is to murder the eldest prince."
Xia Jinse's words were meaningful, staring at everyone word by word and asking, "The ghost mushroom needs to be prepared in advance so that Aunt Shen can eat it today." So, who knows that the eldest prince will come to the house as a guest today? ”
