Chapter 35: The Truth Revealed

In the afternoon, the old ancestor woke up and turned around.

"Ancestor, lie down first, it's easy to get dizzy when you get up quickly." Xiuping saw that the ancestor woke up, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Say it, and raise the curtain.

"Quick, please Doctor Wang. Let's just say that the ancestor has woken up. She commanded the little girl, and sat down with her.

In the past few days, due to the illness of the ancestors, Wang Zhiqiao has often lived in Weifu.

After a while, he came with a medicine box.

"Wang Zhiqiao has seen the old ancestor!" Xiuping heard him lift the curtain and come in, so he helped the old ancestor up and half sat on the bed.

Then the curtain was still lowered.

"Doctor Wang, come in, don't be polite." The old ancestor spoke, and Wang Zhiqiao entered the inner room from the outside.

The embroidered screen took out one of the ancestor's hands from the tent curtain, and then took a handkerchief and covered it.

Wang Zhiqiao put down the pulse pillow, and the embroidered screen moved the ancestor's right hand to the pulse pillow.

"Offended." Wang Zhiqiao said, and then put the pulse of the ancestor.

Liang Jiufang said: "Please change your hand." ”

The embroidered screen gently entered the curtain. Help the old ancestor turn over and lie down on his side.

He rested her other hand on the pulse pillow, still covered with a veil.

Wang Zhiqiao checked again, and finally withdrew his hand: "The old ancestor is no longer in trouble. After two more doses of divergent medicine are prescribed, you can be cured. ”

When the old ancestor heard this, he was very happy.

It's about the psychological aspect, and I feel like my whole body is full of strength.

"Fetch water, please Dr. Wang." Xiuping shouted outside.

At this time, Aunt Liuyun walked in and said, "You go to the front and wait for Dr. Wang to prescribe a prescription, and the slave maid will come to talk to the ancestor to relieve his boredom." ”

The ancestor said "good", and the embroidered screen went to the front.

A little girl came in with a silver basin and a towel to serve Wang Zhiqiao Huan's hand.

On the table outside are four-colored pastries and four-colored dried fruits.

Lotus Xiang brought tea.

Wang Zhiqiao sat on the edge of the table, symbolically ate two sips of tea, and then started to write a prescription.

"Just grab two pairs of medicines according to this recipe." After that, he gave the prescription to the embroidered screen.

Xiuping nodded and sent Wang Zhiqiao out of Qingyazhai.

"You're so watching, I'll go and come back." Xiuping asked the little girl, and then went to the pharmacy to grab the medicine in person.

They all say old children, old children.

At this time, as soon as the old ancestor woke up, he kept shouting at the flowing clouds.

"Tell me, I've been sick for a few days, and no one has come to see me." The old ancestor touched his forehead with his hand and scolded, "These people have no conscience! ”

Wei Rongruo's matter, everyone tacitly concealed it.

At this time, Liuyun said: "The old ancestor is so sick that he is in a daze, and several aunts and young ladies have come to see him. It's just that seeing that the ancestor has been asleep, he went back first. ”

"Really?" The old ancestor looked a little disbelieving, "The Wen clan is here too?" ”

"Aunt Wen has been here." Liuyun didn't say much, she was afraid that the old ancestor would pull Wei Rongruo.

But it's really, I'm afraid of what's coming.

"Rong Ruo, that girl must have been here too." The old ancestor thought carefully, "I remember when I first fell ill, I seemed to listen to her. ”

"The memory of the ancestor is really good!" Liuyun could only bite the bullet and continue.

The old ancestor nodded: "Why didn't you see her come later?" Don't think I'm sick, whoever comes to speak, I listen to it really. ”

"It may be that the third lady has been busy recently. Didn't you say last time that you dispensed medicine for the Third Highness! Liuyun just wanted to end the topic quickly.

But the old ancestor didn't give her this opportunity at all.

"That's right. I'm afraid of Wen's bad embryo, so it's okay to stumble on her. ”

Liuyun was silent.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a noise outside the door.

There seems to be a messy footstep.

"You can't go in!" This is the voice of Hexiang.

The old ancestor and Liuyun listened carefully, and then heard the voice of another girl: "The slave and maid are afraid that they are thirsty because they think that the old ancestor has woken up, and they want to eat tea." So I served tea......"

The voice grew deeper and deeper, almost unheard.

The old ancestor could think of her with her eyebrows lowered and her head lowered.

"Don't take a mirror either! Even if the ancestor is thirsty and wants to eat tea, what's the use of asking you to be a washy girl? Hexiang's voice was irritated.

Hexiang was originally serving closely, so he naturally looked down on the ancestors in the courtyard outside, serving tea and pouring water.

"Last time, you were careless, and you served tea to your ancestors. Even the tea bowl fell ......"

Hexiang's voice paused slightly, and then raised his head: "Besides, how do you know what you have in mind." Is this tea filled with licorice and gansui? ”

When Liuyun heard this, he knew that it was Qingluo!

Although last night's matter has been decided: everything is instructed by the third lady, and it has nothing to do with the two girls.

And the two girls also have a good reputation for loyalty.

But Hexiang is straightforward and fast-talking, and deliberately digs her up.

Liuyun was puzzled in his heart: Isn't Qingluo sick?

It's true, on this day, the girls who washed the wash took leave one after another, and only Qingluo was left.

I thought it would be okay for Hexiang to stop her. But things are far from being as simple as they think.

I heard Qing Luo shouting loudly: "The slave and maid are in a hurry to see the ancestor!" Please be merciful to our ancestors! ”

I could hear the lotus fragrance and Qingluo pushing and pushing, and the footsteps were messy.

Hexiang was caught off guard, but let Qingluo enter the door.

I heard the sound of "bang" again, and the sound of the tea bowl falling to the ground.

"Slave Qingluo, I have an urgent matter to see my ancestor! Please be merciful to our ancestors! ”

Liuyun was stunned there, and asked the ancestor to show it.

Before the old ancestor could speak, he saw Qing Luo stumbling into the inner room, followed by Hexiang with an anxious face.

"The ancestor forgives the sins, the slave didn't stop ......," Hexiang said and knelt down.

The old ancestor raised his hand: "Let's go down first, clean up the outside." ”

Lotus Xiang retreated.

I saw Qing Luo kneeling in front of the old ancestor, kowtowing like pounding garlic: "Qing Luo, please ask the old ancestor to be gracious!" ”

The ancestor was very irritable: his illness had just improved, but there were these people who had no eyesight.

Liuyun asked, "But what's the matter?" Come in in a hurry. What if it scares the ancestors? ”

Qing Luo raised his head slightly, tears falling from his eyes: "Old Ancestor, the person who poisoned is not the third lady!" ”

Liuyun heard this and was busy trying to stop it, but he didn't stop it.

This brainless sentence came out, and the old ancestor was stunned all of a sudden.

"What? Poisoned? Miss Three? She asked.

Liuyun hurriedly said, "Old Ancestor, you heard it wrong. Qingluo is saying that the third lady is a doctor, who can detoxify and save lives. As he spoke, he gave Qing Luo a look.

Qing Luo didn't seem to understand, and knocked his head down again: "It seems that the ancestor doesn't know about this." Then Qingluo became a parrot to learn his tongue and tell his ancestors about it......"

"Bold! The old ancestor is just sick, what is there to talk about another day! "Liuyun really can't afford this responsibility.

If the old ancestor heard Qing Luo's words and became angry, wouldn't he die without a place to be buried!

The old ancestor realized that this matter was not trivial.

So his face sank, and he said, "Let her speak!" You don't have to hide anything from me! ”

Seeing that he couldn't stop it, Liuyun was secretly anxious, but he could only stand aside with his hands down.

"Last night, the third lady was in the plum garden. Instruct Baolu to give Gan Sui to the slave maid, and then let the slave maid take the opportunity to put it in the ancestor's medicine jar......"

Before he finished speaking, the old ancestor was so angry that he coughed again and again, but he insisted on asking: "Gansui is poison?" ”

Liuyun hurriedly stepped forward and gently patted the old ancestor's back.

Qingluo shook his head: "Gansui is not poison. But the ancestors' prescriptions had licorice in them. If you use Gansui again, it is eighteen antis. ”

"Say no more!" Liuyun snorted.

"Go on!" The ancestors were categorical. Her eyes seemed to kill.

This is not to blame the ancestors.

She was sick, but when she woke up and heard this, she thought she had escaped death.

"Don't be angry, Ancestor. The slave maid is useless, and the person who poisoned her is not the third lady! Qingluo hurriedly explained.

Liuyun is puzzled: there are all human and material evidence. Qingluo obviously said last night that it was the third lady who instructed her. How did it suddenly change?

The Old Ancestor's face calmed down a little.

Qing Luo continued: "On the surface, it was the third lady who instructed the slave maid to poison the old ancestor. In fact, this is a trap set by Aunt Wen! ”

"Last night, Aunt Wen asked the slave maid to go to Fanghua Garden to tell the third lady that Miss Baolu asked her to go to the Plum Garden.

The third lady was unaware of the fraud, so she went. Then Aunt Wen suddenly appeared, and Baolu took out the Gansui in her sleeve, and the slave maid and Baolu said that it was the third lady who instructed her......"

Qingluo was scared for a while, but he said what happened intermittently.

Liuyun said "ah", I couldn't believe it.

But the old ancestor heard it clearly. Immediately took the candlestick on the table and threw it in Qing Luo's face: "What a betrayal thing!" What did Wen tell you to do, and you did? ”

Qing Luo was hit by the candlestick, and he didn't dare to hide, and the corner of his forehead was dripping with blood for a while: "The slave asks herself to be sorry for the old ancestor, sorry for the third lady."

"This time, I only ask the ancestors, for the sake of Qing Luo's entry into the mansion at the age of seven, don't let the Wen family allow the slave maid to Doctor Yu!"

Qingluo didn't care about the pain, and only kowtowed to his ancestors.

"Then Dr. Yu, what's wrong?" The old ancestor couldn't help but ask.

"Ancestor, the slaves and maids heard that Doctor Yu in the east of the city died five wives and concubines in a row. According to neighbors, they were all poisoned by him. Liuyun said softly.

The old ancestor knew in his heart at this time: it must be that the Wen family pinched Qingluo's deed of sale and forced Liang to become a prostitute.

"Where is that girl Rong Ruo now?" The old ancestor asked Liuyun when he said this.

"Third Miss...... was ordered by the master to be locked up in the warehouse. Qingluo hurriedly said, "And said that no one is allowed to visit ......."

Liuyun nodded in acquiescence.

I heard the old ancestor sigh: "That's it, I understand." Since you are in my room, you will be in peace and wait for a few years to be released.

"But it's just the same, don't talk about it with anyone today."

Qing Luo nodded again and again, and the old ancestor said again: "Go." If Wen asked, you would say that I learned about the third lady and lost my temper. so that they are angry with you.

"If there is anything that hurts heaven and reason, it will not be spared."

Qing Luo agreed, covered his forehead with a handkerchief, and hurriedly retreated.

"Let the little girl go to the door to greet her. If the old man comes down, let him come to see me immediately. "The old ancestor commanded the flowing clouds.

"Also, tell Hexiang. Qingluo never came. ”

Liuyun took the order and left.
