Chapter 125: Rumo is seriously ill
At this time, Wang Duzhi was helping to take care of Rumo in the house, and Rumo became ill again tonight. The whole body spasmed and convulsed, and his mouth kept shouting something. But because she couldn't speak well, no one could understand what she was saying.
Xizhu entered the room and explained the situation to Wang Duzhi, Wang Duzhi was a little impatient, but he thought that he had disappeared for two years, and now that he finally had news, he couldn't ignore it.
So he asked Xiaozhu to take Ruxu to the next room and wait for a while, and then he would come back later.
Ruxu was so anxious that he couldn't sit comfortably in the house, and after waiting for a while, Wang Duzhi walked over quickly.
He looked thinner than before, and his face was a little more vicissitudes. He walked in and asked, "Who is Childe?" Why do you come to my Prime Minister's Mansion late at night? How did you know about the passage of the bamboo forest? ”
He asked three times in a row, Ruxu knew that he was in a hurry, so he could only suppress his anxious and nervous emotions, and reluctantly smiled, "My name is Jin Ruxu, when have you met in Qingchuan?" He heard that Mrs. Fushang was seriously ill and asked me to come and have a look. In two days at most, he will arrive in Kyoto, and he will explain it to you later. ”
Ruxu knew that she broke into the Prime Minister's Mansion late at night, which had aroused Wang Duzhi's suspicions. If he said that he was Tiyun at this time, I am afraid that Wang Duzhi would only drive her out as a demon. So now is not a good time to tell her identity, so she thought of such an excuse.
Wang Duzhi heard her name and felt a little familiar. He still had many questions in his heart, but seeing that the anxiety in Ruxu's eyes was real, he knew that she was really worried about Rumo, so he led her to Rumo's room.
As soon as Ruxu entered the house, she heard Rumo lying on the bed crying loudly, accompanied by convulsions and spasms, she grabbed the corner of the maid next to her, and spoke intermittently while crying, but because of her slurred speech, everyone couldn't hear what she said.
"Madame, calm down. Madame, Madame! Many girls on the side surrounded her, pressed her hands and feet, and smoothed her with their hands.
Rumo's eyes were no longer able to see, her eye sockets were deeply sunken, her body and limbs were already skinny and boneless, her withered hands were shaking like branches, her hands were sometimes inserted into the messy bun, sometimes she pulled her own hair, and pulled her hair down.
When Ruxu saw Rumo's appearance, his eyes immediately turned red, and he was about to walk over with tears in his eyes, but he was stopped by Wang Duyi.
"My uncle and mother are delirious, and if the living person approaches, I am afraid that she will be harmed." Wang Duzhi said.
"Haven't you asked a doctor to come and see you? What is the condition? Ruxu choked up.
"None of the doctors in Kyoto have ever been to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and none of them know what kind of illness it is." Wang Duzhi sighed and shook his head, "My uncle is sick from hard work because he took care of his uncle, and he is now lying in bed unconscious. Kyoto's famous doctors live in the Prime Minister's Mansion every day, but there is no improvement at all. ”
Ruxu bowed his head and looked sad, "When will it be in two days, let him come and show Madame." ”
Wang Duzhi sent Ruxu to the bamboo forest next to his yard, and Ruxu was recalling Rumo's illness along the way, always feeling that he had seen it somewhere.
"Madame, how long have you been experiencing this symptom?" Ruxu asked.
"About four or five months. At first, my aunt just said that her limbs were weak and her feet were numb. Later, he couldn't eat, his eyes couldn't see, and then he became delirious and had convulsions. Wang Duzhi frowned.
Ruxu thought about it carefully in his heart, and seemed to have some eyebrows. It occurred to her that the symptoms were very similar to those of mercury poisoning. In her previous life, when she was in college, she took an elective course in which she mentioned the condition of mercury poisoning. At that time, the video and footage played by the professor in the class made her remember it very deeply.
"I look at her like a mercury poisoning ......," Ru Xu muttered, "but if it is really mercury poisoning, it will be troublesome, and it is basically impossible to treat with the current level of medicine." ”
"What mercury poisoning?" Wang Duzhi felt strange.
"Cinnabar." Ruxu looked at him, "Has Madame taken cinnabar, or is it a pill or pill containing cinnabar?" ”
Immediately, Ruxu thought of another question. The mercury content of ancient cinnabar was relatively low, and there would be no symptoms at all. However, it is impossible for Madame to ingest a large amount of cinnabar in such a short period of time and become poisoned. Unless...... Someone extracted high-purity cinnabar and deliberately harmed her.
"Not really. My uncle did suffer from insomnia and palpitations earlier, but she asked a trusted doctor to come to see her, and then took the medicine according to the prescription. Wang Duzhi said.
"Well, maybe I'm thinking too much......," Ru agreed, "and when it's time to come back, I'll ask him to take a look." If you say goodbye first, we'll meet again. ”
After that, he took the torch in Wang Duzhi's hand and left. After she left, Wang Duzhi suddenly remembered where he had heard her name. Jin Ruxu is the famous man who was summoned into the palace by the emperor. But he seems to have a good relationship with When, and how did the two of them meet?
After returning to the palace, he tossed and turned, and couldn't sleep all night. Although Rumo is not her biological mother, the relationship between the two is closer than blood. Every time she thought of Rumo's painful appearance just now, her heart felt like she had been whipped with a whip.
Early the next morning, the thousand mist had already gone up to the court. As promised, he didn't close his eyes until the day was about to dawn, and slept until noon. When Qianwu came back, she heard that Ruxu hadn't woken up yet, and although she didn't know why she was so tired, she still ordered the kitchen to stew a pot of chicken soup. When he got up, he went to the dining room, and everyone sat down to eat.
"Mr. Xu is going to cheer up today, and he will report to the household department in the afternoon." Chimist glanced at her.
Ruxu took a sip of the chicken soup and nodded in a trance.
After eating, Ruxu went to sleep for a while. Qianwu wanted her to go to the household by herself, but looking at her sleepy eyes, she decided to accompany her on a trip.
The Yamen of the Ministry of Household and the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry are both adjacent to the auspicious square of Baohua Fang, and there are only two streets between the two yamen, which store the information of the money and grain household registration in various parts of the country over the years.
Soon after the two got into the carriage, Ruxu took a nap again. Her head hung from one to the other, fishing, and the carriage was sometimes bumpy, and if she was not careful, she would fall down. Chiki sighed, sat down beside her, resigned herself to pressing her head on her shoulder, and held her face with her hand.
Chiki tilted her head sideways, looking at her face close at hand.
Ruxu's face is really delicate, the corners of the eyes are slightly raised, the petite and straight nose, the upturned thin lips outline the perfect face line, and the smooth and fair skin is white and shiny in the sun. Chimist took a deep breath and gently rubbed her chin with the fingertips that held her face.
The closer you get, the more exciting it is.
The carriage was parked in the parking compound of the household. After getting out of the car, the two walked for about a moment before they arrived at the office yamen of the household department. At this time, Ruxu finally slept enough, and was full of energy and spirits and talked with Qianwu for a while.
When they arrived at the gate of the yamen, the attendant at the door immediately went in and made a report. Zhu Qian, the secretary of the household department, and Gu Wenhua, the head of the household department, led a large group of officials of all sizes to come out to greet Ruxu.
As soon as Xu saw this battle, he looked back at Qianwu again, and felt that he was pretending to be a fox.
As soon as everyone saluted, Qianwu went to the living room and sat down, and Ruxu followed Zhu Qian and Gu Wenhua to the office hall. After arriving at the hall, Zhu Qian handed Ruxu a set of official uniforms of the Ministry of Gold and introduced her to the other two directors of the Ministry of Gold.
The household department is in charge of the country's money and grain household registration, and there are four small departments, one of which is the gold department, which is a department specializing in money management. As soon as I heard this, the spirit came.
"You've just arrived, so you have to get used to a lot of things, and you can ask any questions. When you are familiar with it, tell us about your Arabic Scriptures. Zhu Qian said kindly.
"We've all read your book of calculations, and we know that you've introduced a new kind of bookkeeping, and a few of them have been circulated to Kyoto by chance, and you think it's very easy to read them...... All of us in charge of the household department are looking forward to your coming, and there are a lot of questions that need to be answered by you. Gu Wenhua said with a smile.
"That's nature. Since I am already a member of the household department, it is also appropriate to contribute. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me. Ruxu smiled and looked at the circle of people around her.
She suddenly opened up in her heart, why Nan Chengguo has been in internal friction in the past few years, but he has always maintained a solid national foundation. The reason is just because there is such a relatively decent and honest household.
It seems that the emperor, although selfish and unreasonable, understands the importance of money. The selected household personnel are open-minded and can receive advice. However, even if Tobe is decent, in the confrontation between the prince and Qianwu, he always has to lean towards one side in exchange for protection and peace.
After all, not everyone can be as iron-faced as Wang Duzhi and stand alone in the political situation. Moreover, since Qianwu married Xiao Tiyun, the righteous daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Wang Duzhi did not support Qianwu but also supported Qianwu.
Since then, Ruxu has had a new identity, the head of the gold department of the household yamen.
After returning from the household yamen, Qianwu visually inspected the official uniform and felt that it was obviously too big for Ru Xu. So he asked Su Yu to invite a tailor to come and measure her overnight and change the size of her clothes.
The household department is very reasonable, and at the request of Qianwu, they agreed to go to the household department to work in a few days, so as not to cause twists and turns in the middle of the water and soil adaptation. From this incident, Ruxu has clearly known that in this contest between the prince and the prince, the household department is on which side.
In fact, going to work in a few days is as Xu personally asked Qianwu to do. Because during this period, when will she meet, recognize Wang Duzhi, and most importantly, cure Rumo's illness first. Rumo is in danger, her mother is seriously ill, and she can't concentrate on the affairs of the household.
