Chapter 37: Poisoning

The sun was setting, and the dusk was gradually getting late, Xie Qingning had no intention of eating, so he just sat on the kang and pondered.

The two suspicious glances at the banquet just now made her feel uneasy, not to mention the ill-intentioned in the eyes of the prince of Zhengyang, it was Nanshan Xiao's gaze that was different, and it also reminded her of a lot of rumors about her mother.

The people of Xie Mansion said that her mother was smart but disobedient to discipline since she was a child, and when she grew up, she was even more blind and willful, which made it difficult for the elders of the four rooms.

However, when Xie Lanying was eighteen years old, she had a conflict with Changfang for some reason, Xie Mingfei did not stand on her side, she ran away from home in a fit of anger, and this trip was more than 100 years. No one knows where she has gone or what she has done for more than 100 years, only that she was seriously injured and pot-bellied when she returned, but she would rather die than reveal who the father of the child was, let alone mention the experience of these years, until she died of poison during childbirth three months later.

It's a pity that Xie Qingning came back after the age of six in this life, so she doesn't know what her mother has experienced, if it weren't for Nanshan Xiao's eyes today that made her suspicious, she wouldn't have rethought her mother's affairs.

Unconsciously, she took out the drawing again, remembering that Xie Zhongchun coveted her mother's things so much, and resentment gradually grew in her heart.

"Miss, you just drank some wine, let's drink some strong tea to relieve hangover," the sound of the Zheng woke up Xie Qingning, who was in deep thought, she raised her head to take the teacup, and when she opened the tea lid and tasted the rich fragrance of tea, she continued, "Miss, it's rare that the county lord is willing to be so close to you, I think this is a great opportunity, as long as we walk around with the county lord more these days, presumably Madame will not dare not pay attention to you." The subordinates in the house are accustomed to seeing high and low, and if the young lady can be valued by the lady, the future life will be many times better. ”

Xie Qingning didn't speak, but he didn't think so in his heart.

She didn't care what kind of attitude Xie Zhongshu and his wife had towards her, she just wanted to find that Nanshan Xiao and ask him to see if he was familiar with his mother and whether he knew anything about his mother.

However, the other party was Keqing's elder, who lived in the outer courtyard, and there were a large number of guards and secret sentinels over there, so she was a little embarrassed that she was inconvenient to enter and exit.

"Although there are many young ladies at today's banquet, but the slave maid looks at you as the only one who oppresses the county fang, if you participate in such a banquet a few more times, you will definitely be famous in the entire Lanling City, and people dare not underestimate it."

The words of the zither made Xie Qingning realize something, looked down at the clothes on his body, put down the tea cup and began to pull out the heavy ornaments on his head, and the zither saw it and hurriedly stopped, "Miss, don't dismantle it, we will have to go to the East Warm Pavilion ...... later." ”

"You don't have to go to dinner, you and Yanyu go to the big kitchen to solve it, I'm tired and want to sleep first." Xie Qingning glanced at her, her gaze was full of sternness, and all the expectations in her eyes were extinguished, she was stunned before she responded gloomily and turned to leave.

Xie Qing would rather not remove the pendant on his head, and put on comfortable bedclothes, and then sat on the kang with his hair scattered, thinking about his next plan.

It is necessary to find an opportunity to interview Nanshan Xiao, and it is also necessary to go back to the broken temple outside the city on the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month to meet the old servant, although there are some obstacles in studying the Dan Dao at the moment, it does not affect her to continue to cultivate, and the rest of the factors are not a big deal for her.

She was a little relieved, and then sank down to study the medicine scriptures for a while, seeing that the night was gradually falling, it was dark outside the window, although the candle was lit in the house, the light was dim, and in the quiet space, she vaguely heard the slight snoring of the black cat, Xie Qingning looked up with a smile, and was just about to go down to the kang to wash in the clean room, when she suddenly felt that her eyes were black, and there was a sharp dull pain in her brain, and then the sky was spinning, and the abdomen was colic, and the darkness instantly encroached on all her thinking space.

It seemed that he had slept for a long time, and when Xie Qingning's consciousness slowly gathered, he happened to hear Xie Huazhao's anxious voice, "What's wrong with the seventh sister?" How can a good person pass out? ”

Passed out? Xie Qingning remembered the previous incident after realizing that he might have been poisoned, and immediately sensed some changes in his body, except for the feeling of weakness in his limbs, there was still a slight pain in his lower abdomen for the rest of his life, but it was not unbearable pain, could it be that the poison in his body had been resolved?

"Third young master, the slave and maid really don't know, when the slave and maid came back, they saw the young lady fainting on the ground, her face was pale, but the road was slippery in the dark this day, and we couldn't get out of the inner courtyard, fortunately you came, otherwise where would we go to ask the doctor to see the young lady." The voice of the Zheng explanation was full of crying, and the ears of the people were nervous.

Xie Qingning sighed secretly, and said in his belly, "With Fanmo, a super Dan master, where else do you need to go to ask for a doctor?" He must have detoxified me, otherwise how could I not feel pain? Thinking of this, she pretended to have just woken up and snorted softly, and sure enough, the three people around the bed came over and exclaimed, "Miss", "Seventh Sister".

"Third brother, why are you here?" Xie Qingning opened her eyes, Bang Zheng and Yanyu hurriedly helped her get up and sit on the head of the bed, and took a soft pillow to cushion her back to make her sit more comfortable.

"Seventh sister, what's wrong with you?" Xie Huazhao couldn't get too close, so he dragged Zhang Jinqi to sit down and asked.

Xie Qingning pondered for a moment and said, "I'm probably poisoned." ”

"Poisoned?" Xie Huazhao and the three of them changed color at the same time.

"Fortunately, I took the antidote pill before I fell unconscious, so it should be fine." As she spoke, she raised her eyes to look up at the black cat who had been sleeping in the corner of the bed, his ears were shaking slightly, presumably pretending to be asleep on purpose.

Xie Huazhao then remembered that she was also a doctor, and he was too anxious to call the first year of junior high school to ask for a doctor, but it was too much.
