Chapter 48: The Cause of Her Mother's Death
Xia Yanxiu's eyes swept over, and Zhao's heart trembled when he saw it.
She knew that the anger in Xia Yanxiu's heart had not disappeared, and she didn't dare to quibble anymore, so she hurriedly said: "Master, I'm sorry, the concubine is really ashamed, these days, because she is busy buying the medicinal materials that Junping needs, as well as building a pharmacy for Jinse, maybe the concubine is negligent, so she didn't pay attention to those subordinates......"
"Mother, isn't that right?"
Xia Jinse said a little strangely: "This is not a matter of paying attention or not, it is obvious that someone deliberately set the fire, which caused Mo Zhuxuan to burn." If it weren't for luck, the elder brother and the second brother had an accident this time, but it wasn't a word of negligence that could have been resolved. ”
will really shirk the responsibility and blame her for the reason, she will naturally not let the Zhao family wish!
Zhao gritted his teeth when he heard this, but he had to bow his head: "Maybe some people are jealous of our Prime Minister's Mansion, so they sent people to make trouble." Master, it is indeed necessary to investigate strictly, and the concubine will definitely find out who did it! ”
Seeing that Xia Jinse was about to say something, Xia Ruxue suddenly said: "Father, could it be that this arson incident was done by those who hurt the eldest sister before?" Last time they didn't hurt the big sister, this time they will hurt the big brother, someone must be calculating our prime minister's house, Dad, be careful. ”
Xia Jinse glanced at Xia Ruxue, worthy of being the most beloved daughter of the Zhao family, and helped her share the firepower with a word.
Xia Mengyao immediately became anxious: "Don't!" Dad, you must catch those people, or they will hurt their daughter next time. ”
Xia Yanxiu frowned and didn't speak, but he had a little guess in his heart.
Although Su suspected that Zhao did it, Zhao's explanation was also reasonable, and he believed that Zhao would not do it. As for Su's suspicion, it's not impossible, but Su's has always been submissive, and he has never done anything out of the ordinary, so it's too unlikely that she will murder the eldest young master.
But if it's an outsider, it's possible!
Who is the person who harmed Xia Jinse, Xia Yanxiu knows in his heart, but whether this person wants to harm his eldest son is uncertain. At the beginning, Xia Jinse's matter was acquiesced by him, even if he didn't say anything about this person's move, but this time he would never allow him to be defeated.
Staring at the Zhao family, Xia Yanxiu said gloomily: "The old man will hand over this family to you to take care of, and you will take care of it for me." If you make the house restless again, you will hand over the power of the family to me, and the old man will find someone else to take care of it! ”
"It's the master, the concubine knows." Zhao didn't dare to refute a word when he was trained.
Walking in front of Xia Junping, Xia Yanxiu's face softened a little: "Junping, are you okay?" ”
Xia Junping nodded: "My son is fine, father, this time it's really thanks to my sister." ”
Unexpectedly, Xia Junping also said good things about himself, Xia Jinse was a little surprised.
Looking at the eldest daughter in front of him, Xia Yanxiu really had a good impression this time.
Although this daughter was not raised by his side and was not liked by him, he really did something unexpected when he came back this time. not only cured the emperor's injuries, but also had an inexplicable friendship with the Nine Princes, and even had a body of medical skills, which surprised him.
If it weren't for the fact that he had already made a decision, he really had a little thought about it, and he wanted to make the marriage between Xia Jinse and the second prince.
"Jinse, this time it was you who were alert and saved your eldest brother and younger brother. And your eldest brother's injury, you have to take it to heart, and you will definitely heal him. If your mother had known, she would have rested under the nine springs. ”
As if thinking of his deceased wife, Xia Yanxiu's expression was a little gloomy, and he patted Xia Jinse on the shoulder.
Xia Jinse said softly: "Father, don't worry, I will definitely heal my brother's injury." ”
She was despising it in her heart, if Xia Yanxiu didn't mention her mother, she wouldn't feel sarcastic, such a coy gesture, it was obvious that it was for her and her eldest brother to see, it was simply disgusting.
The two sons are fine, which is Xia Yanxiu's greatest comfort, and in addition to being relieved, he ordered this matter to be strictly investigated.
Lin Tao, the housekeeper of the inner courtyard, was killed on the spot, the body was wrapped in a straw mat, and the mass grave outside the city was thrown away. The eight subordinates who Mo Zhuxuan had just gone were also arrested, regardless of whether they were crying out for injustice or not, they were all sent to Jingzhao Mansion for strict investigation.
The entire Xiangfu girl was also investigated, and everyone was silent for a while, and they were honestly afraid.
But there were also people who benefited, and Hu Yuan, the original steward of the outer court, was promoted to the position of steward of the inner court. Xia Yanxiu rearranged the people who managed the outer courtyard, and for a period of time after that, the atmosphere of the Prime Minister's Mansion was completely new, and even the subordinates were much more diligent in their work.
Xia Junping's residence burned down, and even if it was rebuilt, it would take a few months, so he moved to Runqing Pavilion, close to the location of Rongxi Hall. Hu Yuanzheng seriously arranged for a group of clever people to come over, and promised to serve the eldest young master well.
Runqin Pavilion.
Xia Jinse glanced out of the window, turned around and said with a light smile: "These people are still diligent, it seems that they will not dare to make trouble for a while." ”
Xia Junping sat in a wheelchair, holding a teacup in his hand and holding a pill, and his face was much calmer.
Seeing that he was still silent, Xia Jinse only thought that he was too frightened, and didn't care too much, and told him to take medicine on time, and prepared to leave with chasing clouds and shooting the moon.
"Wait, sister."
Xia Junping suddenly spoke, looked at Xia Jinse and said, "You said before that you almost died, what the hell is going on?" ”
"Why would my brother ask this?" Unexpectedly, Xia Junping was actually interested in this, Xia Jinse stopped and turned back.
Pursing his lips, Xia Junping looked at her eyes as clear as water, and said a little sneeringly: "I remembered what you said before, sister, you just returned home and had an accident and almost died, and then you didn't say much." I...... Since I'm your big brother, I have to care about it. ”
Such heart-to-heart words are not like what Xia Junping usually says, Xia Jinse seemed to see something, and teased: "I really don't care about me when I am still a brother, I have always remembered it." ”
Xia Junping was a little embarrassed, subconsciously turned his head away, and then moved and held back.
These days, in order to cheer him up, Xia Jinse has seen everything he has done in his eyes and in his heart.
He secretly takes medicine every day, and his cough is indeed much better, as for Xia Jinse saying that he can cure his leg, although he has no hope, he doesn't want to be as decadent as before.
That fire seemed to burn away all his depression, although it was not as exaggerated as being reborn from the fire, but he definitely didn't want his sister to have an accident like him. and the death of his mother, he has never forgotten it, after so many years, some things should be settled.
It was rare for a brother and sister to talk about their hearts, Xia Jinse originally told the matter, Xia Junping's face changed again and again when he heard it, and finally heard that she was lucky to be rescued, and finally returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, so he breathed a long sigh of relief
"Fortunately, my sister met a noble person and also had medical skills, so she escaped death."
However, Xia Junping asked more: "The person who saved my sister, since there is a mansion on Qingyang Mountain, and it is still extraordinary, I think it should be some powerful person in Beijing." If my sister meets me in the future, I must thank him well. ”
She's already grateful!
Not only that, but that person also robbed her marriage book and blackmailed Yunnan Baiyao for half a year!
Xia Jinse slandered in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
Xia Junping, who cheered up, was a little more energetic than usual, his eyes were a lot more energetic, he hadn't spoiled himself in the past few days, and his face was a little more bloody.
Xia Jinse smiled slightly: "Brother, since you care about me, then you must take care of your injuries and recover as soon as possible." This time, Zhao was punished by his father, and I am afraid that in two days, my pharmacy will be able to be repaired. When the time comes, I'll study how to treat your leg injury. ”
"Jinse, brother's leg, I can leave it to you." Xia Junping smiled indifferently, and a jade-like demeanor emerged spontaneously. If it weren't for the fact that he was still weak now, he was afraid that this smile would attract many women, and even Xia Jinse nodded secretly.
"By the way, brother, do you recognize the fifth prince?" Xia Jinse suddenly remembered something.
"The Fifth Prince? I recognize it. ”
Eliminating the estrangement, Xia Junping's words also increased, he said that when he used to study with him, he got to know several princes. But the most talkative thing is the fifth prince Lan Muxuan. When he hunted for the first time, he hunted a white fox and gave it to Lan Muxuan.
"After I was injured, the Fifth Prince came to see me, but I ...... at that time," he laughed at himself, saying that he had refused too many times, and the Fifth Prince did not come again. I'm afraid that by now, those acquaintances in the past have almost forgotten him.
Xia Jinse listened to it in his heart, and didn't tell Xia Junping that the five princes not only remembered him, but also wanted to visit him.
Let's surprise the eldest brother when the time comes.
After talking for a while, Xia Jinse officially examined Xia Junping's body for the first time.
After all, after a few days of recuperation, Xia Junping's pulse was weak, his blood pressure was 50-80 mm Hg, and he had severe low blood pressure. Although there are no other equipment to test in detail, Xia Jinse believes that his brother must be suffering from severe anemia.
As for the leg injury, it is a comminuted fracture, and it has been dragging on for seven years, and it will take time and effort to heal! Even if it is Xia Jinse, there is no absolute certainty.
Looking at Xia Junping's surprised eyes, staring at the stethoscopes, blood pressure monitors, etc. that she kept taking out of the medicine box, Xia Jinse said: "Brother, don't be surprised, these are all from the military medicine I followed at the border pass." ”
She still used this set of rhetoric to fool her, anyway, the border is far away, and no one will ask for a while. She also said that she had recently treated the emperor and provided medicine to the Ministry of War, Xia Junping was stunned when she heard it, and felt more and more that her sister was super capable.
"Brother, I don't want to die, and I don't want anything to happen to you. So I will definitely do my best to cure my brother, and we will avenge my mother! ”
"Jin Se ......" Xia Junping's heart was shocked.
His sister, who has been separated for seven years, is really different. seems to have experienced life and death, she grew up overnight, and even wanted to protect him, who was an elder brother, her strength and forbearance made him ashamed and ashamed.
Some words that had been hidden for seven years, Xia Junping finally said: "Actually, I also suspect that there is something wrong with my mother's death." ”
"Who is it?" Xia Jinse stared at him.
