Chapter 410: Gu Wen was poisoned
At first glance, the matter of making official banks was heavily implicated, although most of the officials were not involved. But that doesn't mean they haven't done other things that upset the emperor. Once thoroughly investigated, it is inevitable to pull out the radish and bring out the puree, and perhaps find out what else they do.
Therefore, as soon as the little emperor announced the closure of the case, many people breathed a sigh of relief, including Liu Xuan. Liu Xuan was wearing a wide official uniform with a sauce red stripe collar, and he was in a dark color, which was one of the two official uniforms of the current dynasty. His stature is not considered tall, and he is drowned in the crowd and looks inconspicuous at all.
Perhaps because his official position is not so big, huddled in the crowd, even if he is relieved by this, it looks like a small official wants to cover up something. He's really done a good job of disguise.
It is precisely because of this that the little emperor looked for people with different expressions in the crowd, and he had doubts about several big officials in his heart, but he did not have any thoughts about him. I even feel that such an official probably doesn't dare to be corrupt much.
Who would have thought that he was the one who intervened in the private creation of official money?
Liu Xuan got down, took off his official hat, and fanned the wind leisurely, except for beads of sweat on his head.
A thin official came next to him and arched his hand at him, "Lord Liu is hot?" ”
Liu Xuan looked back, and also showed a look of understanding, "Could it be that Lord Liu is not hot?" ”
A willow, a liu, sounds very close.
The two looked at each other, and they both felt that they were as cunning as old foxes, but they were also the best partners. This business is naturally only done by smart people.
But just after going down to the court, it was impossible to talk about anything more, so Liu Xuan said, "Lord Liu, Liu has been thinking about it recently, and he suddenly wants to listen to the play. I heard that there was a troupe in the capital, and it performed well. How about I invite Mr. Liu to come to the house to listen to the play in two days? ”
"Lord Liu invited, and Liu is naturally omniscient."
They didn't say anything else, just such a paragraph, and an invitation had been made the day after tomorrow, and it was in Liu Xuan's mansion. But I couldn't hear anything else about it. Nor does it raise doubts.
Liu Xuan swayed out of the palace, and a soft sedan chair came to pick him up, and he sat on the sedan chair, his legs together, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The little emperor has already found a scapegoat, and the effort to push the two people out to block the line of sight two days ago was not in vain, and he can finally breathe a sigh of relief. But now that this matter is over, it should not continue to stand in the way of his wealth. You know, the mine was closed for a day, and the damage was huge.
And after observing, he found that the little emperor had no intention of revisiting the old things, Liu Xuan was even more relaxed, and he also missed the silver produced in those mines. It's all a pain in his flesh for one less day.
Thinking about this, Liu Xuan called the housekeeper, "Inform me, except for the one that was blown up, the other mines can continue to operate." ”
The butler said, "Sir, do you want to wait any longer?" This... Gu Wen is still investigating in private.
Liu Xuan smashed the cup hatefully, "Gu Wen! It's Gu Wen again! It's not enough to kill my poor niece and her son, and now it's up to me! It's disgusting! ”
The love for his niece and his dislike for Gu Wen between his words made it difficult to see that Liu Yun'er was killed by him at that time, not someone else.
Everyone knows that the emperor values Gu Wen and gives him full authority to investigate the matter of making official silver. But now that the emperor has said that this matter has been investigated, what is he still pretentious about!
Liu Xuan's face was distorted when he thought about it, but in the end, the temptation of money still outweighed his worries, "Hmph." Wealth and danger are sought, and how much will you lose in a few more days! ”
"That's it, I'll handle it myself on Gu Wen's side. Let your subordinates continue to operate the other mines, but you can't lose any more. ”
Liu Yuanwai next to him shook the wine glass in his hand and said with a smile, "Brother Liu is really anxious, if the emperor finds out, the two of us will be finished." ”
Liu Xuan raised his cup and touched him, "Could it be that I'm the only one who is anxious?" Isn't Brother Liu anxious? Now that there is one less mine, I am not the only one who has lost, and Brother Liu doesn't care at all? ”
Liu Yuanwai was the official who talked to him after the next dynasty, and the two of them were embarrassed, and it was not a day or two to do this business. It's just that they all like to have fun, and Gu Cai, who has died, is actually a kind of person. If it weren't for that, it wouldn't have come together at all.
Now the wind is so tight, but the two of them leaned on the recliner and listened to the singing, shaking their wine glasses, Liu Yuanwai showed a lewd smile, "Brother Liu, you look at the little flower on the stage, if you don't like the flower, Liu Mou will enjoy it himself." ”
Liu Xuan would not argue with him about this anymore, but he also had some disdain in his heart, "Brother Liu, enjoy it yourself." ”
There is one less mine cave, is it possible that he is the only one who feels regretful? Why is this person around him still so indulging in fun, it's really unmotivated.
The more Liu Xuan thought about it, the more he hated, especially the lack of money, it was like stripping meat on him, and he hated Gu Wen in his heart. A gentle and soft voice sounded, and his resentful gaze was not so obvious.
Gu Wen also discovered that in the past few days, when he was going up and down, there was always a seemingly nonexistent gaze on him, with a little malice and provocation. But when he looked back, he couldn't find anything.
He originally thought it was Liu Xuan, but when he and Liu Xuan glanced at each other, the other party always replied with a gentle and even somewhat cautious smile, "Is there something wrong with Master Gu?" ”
didn't seem to care about Gu Wen's identity at all, which made him a little subtle in his heart. But think about it, Liu Xuan probably didn't know that he had been found on him, so this performance is understandable. Gu Wen thought so, and also found a reason for himself not to continue to think about this problem.
Whoever wants to watch it, he can watch it, and he can't miss a piece of meat. Since he entered the court, have there been fewer people who have offended? Isn't it right to hate him? So there may be more than one person who has ill will towards him. It's just that Gu Wen himself feels that he is living an upright life, and he doesn't need to care about these at all.
However, he thought so to himself, but he soon suffered. When he was drinking tea at home, he felt that the tea tasted very mellow and thick, and he was about to add another cup, but a mouthful of blood spurted out.
Gu Wen looked at the bloodshot between his fingers in disbelief, and it was still a little black, he had been poisoned.
The subordinate was scared to death, and for a while it became like a hornet's nest. The fetching of water, the wiping of his face, and the guards carried him to bed. Another subordinate went out to find a doctor to see Gu Wen.
He was poisoned by drinking tea, and his breath was dying for a while, and he was a little out of breath. I was anxious and angry, whether it was tea poisoning or something else, but there was a high probability that it was tea poisoning. I just don't know how the other party poisoned him, did he come in from the outside, or did he buy off the people in the house?
Either way, it made him tremble with anger. This scene is very similar to when he was still in the countryside, he often got food poisoning. I didn't expect that after such a long time, he would be so careless, and he also blamed himself.
The doctor came soon, and after showing it to Gu Wen, he sighed helplessly, "Your Excellency is indeed poisoned." But this poison... The old man hasn't seen it before, it's very powerful. The old man is also helpless! ”
Gu Wen's throat was sweet, "Helpless? ”
The doctor said, "I can't cure it, but I can prescribe a prescription for detoxification to eat first, what do you think?" ”
Gu Wen waved his hand weakly.
There was an alert subordinate who saw Gu Wen poisoned, and the doctor looked helpless. suddenly remembered that Gu Wen had a good relationship with Xue Rou, and the other party was also a famous doctor, "By the way, I'll go find Miss Xue." ”
He went to Yuan Junfeng's mansion with this little cleverness, and when he saw Xue Rou, he said anxiously, "Miss Xue, please go and see our master." ”
"Your lord?" Xue Rou looked at the person in front of her in disbelief, but she didn't know who this person was.
The subordinate hurriedly said, "I am a subordinate from the old man's mansion of Gu Wen, the old man made him poisoned, and now he is lying on the bed." We went to the doctor, but the doctor couldn't detoxify. I heard that Miss Xue is also a doctor, so I quickly came to find her. ”
"Gu Wen is poisoned?" Xue Rou was even more surprised, "Where?" Take me there. ”
She was anxious, and after walking a few steps, she remembered that she didn't take the medicine box, "You go first, I'll go back and get the medicine box, and I'll follow me immediately." ”
The subordinate nodded, and his steps were in a hurry.
Xue Rou hurried to Gu Wen's house, and sure enough, she saw a pale and thin hand sticking out of the bed curtain, which belonged to Gu Wen alone, a pair of literati hands. And the strong smell of medicine spreads, and I don't know what the doctor in front of him ate, why is the smell of medicine so strong?
Maybe this medicine has some calming effect, Gu Wen is now asleep deeply, Xue Rou took his pulse, and looked at his tongue and eyes, and found that it was a little black, which was indeed highly poisonous. Hurriedly fed him two antidote pills first, although it could not be completely detoxified, it could be suppressed.
Xue Rou stood up and looked at the subordinate beside him who had just brought him in, "Do you have a pharmacy in the house?" Take me to see it. ”
The subordinate nodded hurriedly.
There will be a certain amount of medicinal materials stored in the normal house, not to mention people like Gu Wen, who are often framed and poisoned, so they are naturally more careful. Therefore, Xue Rou went directly to their pharmacy, looked at the basic medicinal materials, and began to develop an antidote.
It's just that poison is poison after all, if it can be detoxified so easily, it can't become poisonous, the more anxious Xue Rou is, the more he can't develop it, and finally he is very irritable, and he can't wait to break all these bottles and cans in front of him.
I heard that Gu Wen woke up in bed again, and vomited a mouthful of blood, this time it was all black blood. This toxin is really powerful.
Xue Rou was upset, and someone came in to say, "Miss Xue, the master wants to see you." ”
Xue Rou was puzzled, what was Gu Wen looking for her to do at this time? Shouldn't you take good care of your illness, where can you have the strength to vomit blood?
But he still said, "I know, I'll come right over." ”
