Chapter 53: Confession

When Su Yunlai heard this, his face suddenly turned pale, the ghost doctor had said before that Su Zhan had been poisoned, but the poisonous poison doctor had already been relieved, because of this matter, she had specially ordered at that time that all the things in Su Zhan's entrance must be carefully inspected, but she didn't expect to be tricked.

"Imperial Doctor Zheng, is there any way to detoxify?" Su Yunlai asked calmly.

Imperial Physician Zheng arched his hand, and his face was ashamed: "This poisonous name is called long sleep, and the poisoned person will fall into a deep sleep, and he will not wake up until the end of his life, and the old man is ashamed, and there is no solution." After a pause, he was a little speechless, but finally just said: "Even if the ghost doctor is here, I'm afraid there is nothing I can do, so the second wife still has to make plans as soon as possible." ”

Chen Shi was struck by lightning, her body shook, and she almost fainted to the ground, she covered her eyes and cried: "Zhan'er......"

The most tragic time is the white-haired man sending the black man, Chen originally thought that Su Zhan's body was already well, but he didn't expect to suffer such a catastrophe.

Imperial Physician Zheng shook his head with a sigh on his face, picked up the medicine box and walked out, Su Yun looked at his back and hurriedly chased after him.

"Imperial Doctor Zheng, please stay!" Su Yunlai called: "Just now, the imperial doctor seemed to want to speak and stopped, could it be that my third brother's poison still has a glimmer of life?" Please also tell the truth! ”

Imperial Physician Zheng looked at her stubborn eyes and sighed slightly: "Miss Su wants to save her brother's heart, and the old man understands it, but in this matter, Miss Su is still dead, so she will treat it as no cure, and her heart can be comforted." ”

Su Yunlai said stubbornly: "As a doctor, Imperial Doctor Zheng has the heart of a benevolent person, if he changes to a doctor, he knows that his relatives still have a glimmer of life, but will he give up?" ”

Imperial Physician Zheng sighed softly, and finally said: "There is indeed a way, I heard that on the Tianshan Mountain, there is a snow frog, which can cure all kinds of poisons when used in medicine, and it is non-toxic to eat it can also strengthen the body, but it is a pity that snow frogs are rare and difficult for ordinary people to get, and the old man has been in the industry for more than 40 years, and he has only seen it once, which is the birthday gift given to His Majesty by the four princes that day, so the old man said, I still don't know." ”

But this is the emperor's birthday gift, how precious is the snow frog, how can the emperor take it out to save a small civilian?

I know that there is a way to save people, but I can't do anything, I can only watch my relatives die, it's better to have no hope in the morning.

Su Yunlai pursed his lips, but he didn't expect this to be the result, Imperial Doctor Zheng shook his head and left with a sigh.

Su Yunlai had already thought of several possible ways in an instant, to beg Li Sheng, to beg Princess Wuyang, or Lin Zhengan, this was the most direct way she could think of, but Su Yunlai knew that no matter who she begged, it was impossible.

It is impossible for the emperor to use such a precious snow frog on Su Zhan's body.

Su Yunlai closed his eyes and clenched his fists tightly.

Su Yunlai returned to the courtyard, Li Sheng had already arrived, and Su Jie was entertaining him.

Li Sheng saw Su Yunlai hurriedly stand up, and said with concern: "Don't worry, I have already sent someone to find a ghost doctor, although this 'disease' is menacing, it will not be able to die for a while, we still have a chance, you must not mess with yourself." ”

Su Yunlai glanced at him with a complicated expression, she has been smart since she was a child, and she is young in love matters, but after she and Gu Junyan fell in love, they gradually understood some of the mysteries.

She could see that the worry in Li Sheng's eyes was more for her than for Su Zhan, and she didn't understand what it meant.

But can she speak? Can this affection save Su Zhan? Can she make such an unreasonable request?

Su Yunlai lowered her eyes and bit her lip tightly, this was her most difficult choice.

Li Sheng thought she was just worried about Su Zhan, and didn't think much about it.

Su Yunlai said in a low voice: "Thank you, Your Highness the eldest grandson, I'm fine." ”

Li Sheng looked at Su Jie's inquiring gaze, swallowed the words he wanted to care about, and said, "I am a brother and sister with Ah Zhan, if there is anything, go to the eldest grandson's mansion to find me." ”

Su Yun gave a blessing, and Li Sheng left Su Mansion without staying long after visiting his illness.

Walking out of the Su Mansion, the little guy outside the door walked to Li Sheng's side and said in a low voice: "Your Royal Highness the eldest grandson, just now Imperial Doctor Zheng sent a message, saying that it was the poison of the third young master, and only the snow frog could solve it. ”

Li Sheng was stunned, and immediately understood Su Yunlai's expression just now, his eyes were a little complicated, and he muttered, "Then why didn't she tell me?" Why didn't you tell me? ”

Why don't you come to him? She knew that this was the only chance to save Su Zhan, but why didn't she speak?

Li Sheng glanced back at the gate of the Su Mansion, but finally did not enter again.

Su Zhan lay quietly on the bed, motionless, as if he was asleep, Chen had fainted several times from crying, and now he was also sick in bed, Su Yunlai was busy taking care of Su Zhan, and he had to take care of Chen, so busy that his feet did not touch the ground, and he had to prevent Mrs. Su from taking advantage of this opportunity to poison him, which can be described as exhausting.

"Mama Lan, the medicine on my mother's side must be watched by our people, and it must not pass through other people's hands, and there is food, and the menu must also be brought over for me to see." Su Yunlai commanded.

Mama Lan looked at Su Yunlai's pale little face distressedly, since Su Zhan and Chen fell ill, Su Yunlai had not rested.

"Miss, take a rest first, Mama will keep an eye on these little things." Mama Lan said distressedly.

Su Yunlai shook his head: "I'm fine, I'm worried that they will do something on the dishes, you don't understand, this food has a natural restraint, even if you don't take medicine, eating it together, it will be harmful to the body, be careful." ”

Mama Lan nodded, paused, and said with some hesitation: "Miss, look, do you want to send a letter to the second master?" ”

Su Zhan is critically ill, and Second Master Su, as his father, should he be informed? Lest...... I can't even see the last one.

Su Yunlai was shocked, she has always been careful, no matter how big or small, how could she not think of this, it's just that she has been reluctant to mention it.

If she didn't have to, she didn't want to think about this possibility.

“…… Send someone to deliver a letter. After a long time, Su Yunlai said abruptly.

Mama Lan sighed and responded, "Miss, let's take a rest first, you haven't rested in the past two days, if you fall ill again, what can we do in the second room!" ”

Su Yunlai nodded, she was indeed a little unable to hold on, Mama Lan took the maids out and let Su Yunlai have a good rest.

Su Yunlai closed her eyes and leaned on the small collapse to recuperate, obviously she was very tired, but she couldn't sleep, she hadn't given up the idea of wanting to save Su Zhan, but she was too busy during the day and really didn't have time to think about it, and now she can finally calm down and think about countermeasures.

Suddenly, a shadow enveloped her, and she opened her eyes in shock, and saw a familiar handsome face in front of her.

"I'm late." Gu Junyan said in a low voice.

I don't know why, Su Yunlai, who was strong in the day and could be relied on by the whole family, suddenly turned red in his eyes.

From Su Zhan's accident to the present, Su Yunlai has been busy arranging various things, in fact, she is also very scared and afraid, but she can't cry, she can't be vulnerable, she wants to support this family, but his words made her unload all her strength at once.

Gu Jun stretched out his hand and took her into his arms, his movements were a little rusty, but he hugged her tightly in his arms.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Gu Junyan whispered in her ear to reassure: "It's all me." ”

Su Yunlai leaned on his chest, knowing that their intimacy was not in line with the rules, but he still indulged his willfulness.

Su Yunlai was tough in the end, and after crying, he quickly cheered up and raised his head from his arms a little shyly.

"I have thought of a lot of ways, but there is still no good way, the snow frog is too precious, and the emperor can't take it out at all." Su Yunlai said dejectedly.

In the past, although she could use means to resolve calculations again and again, in the final analysis, like the fourth wife, the fifth wife, or Mrs. Su, they all had something to ask for, she used what they wanted, and then achieved her goal.

But that's the emperor, what can the emperor ask for, what can she give to her little boudoir daughter? Even if she has a full stomach of acrylic means, she can't use it.

"I said, with me, you don't have to worry about these things." Gu Junyan said softly in his voice, and he reached out and gently brushed her cheek.

Su Yunlai took his hand: "Are you done?" ”

After Gu Junyan left, he would send her letters back from time to time, and he never heard him say that he wanted to come back.

Gu Junyan touched her head, and said as a matter of course: "There is such a big thing, how can I still sit still, you don't care about those things, I will deal with it," after a pause, he said again: "You must not have rested for the past few days, okay, promise me, sleep well, I promise you, when you wake up, Su Zhan will be fine." ”

knew that this was his words to comfort her, but she didn't know why, maybe it was because of what Gu Junyan said, which made her feel comforted in her heart, as if as long as he said it, it would definitely come true.

Su Yunlai nodded lightly and lay on the bed, Gu Junyan covered her with a quilt: "I still have something to do, I have to go out for a trip, you have a good rest, don't let me worry." ”

He took her hand, the corners of his lips falling lightly on it, before he stood up and strode away.

Perhaps because of Gu Junyan's comfort, fatigue hit, and Su Yunlai quickly fell asleep.

After Gu Junyan left Su Mansion, he hurried towards the palace, but met Li Sheng on the way.

Gu Junyan stopped his horse and looked at the carriage blocking in front of him.

Li Sheng stepped down from the carriage and looked at him with complicated eyes: "Do you really want to do this?" ”

"It's the only way." Gu Junyan said.

"Do you know that if you do this, all our years of hard work will be in vain!" Even if Li Sheng has always been calm and calm, he can't help but be a little anxious at this time.

"I don't believe that our efforts will be ruined like this, you underestimate me too much." Gu Junyan said lightly.

Li Sheng didn't dare to suffocate and looked at him, shook his head and said, "You are crazy, Gu Junyan, do you know what you are doing?" Is it to save Su Zhan? He won't necessarily die, I've already sent someone to find the ghost doctor, the ghost doctor can save Su Zhan once, he will definitely be able to save him a second time, you don't necessarily have to make this decision! ”

Gu Junyan smiled lightly: "Are you lying or are you lying to yourself?" This poison is not difficult to solve at all, it is the same for whoever comes, without medicine, even the ghost doctor has no way. ”

After listening to his words, Li Sheng choked and was speechless.

Li Sheng glanced at him with a complicated expression: "You have already decided?" ”

Gu Junyan didn't answer, but his determined look said it all.

"For what?" Li Sheng asked, "Is it worth it?" ”

He already knew why, but he asked.

Gu Junyan just looked at him calmly.

Li Sheng smiled bitterly: "I can't stop you, I can't stop you all along." He slowly turned to the side and moved out of the way.

Gu Junyan didn't hesitate to turn over his horse and gallop towards the palace quickly.

Li Sheng looked at the back of him leaving, and he seemed to suddenly understand something.

What can be the thing that can make the king of a country excited? Emperor Qianyuan now lacks nothing, the only thing he lacks is military power.

This is also the reason why he has been jealous of Li Sheng for so many years.

As soon as Su Yunlai woke up the next day, Jun Yao hurriedly ran into the room.

"Miss, Miss, send the medicine, Imperial Doctor Zheng has sent the medicine!" Jun Yao said breathlessly.

"What medicine?" Su Yunlai said in amazement.

"Snow frog, snow frog! Now Imperial Physician Zheng is already starting to treat the Third Young Master! ”

When Su Yunlai heard this, he hurriedly put on his shoes and walked out.

In Lingyun Courtyard, the news that Li Sheng brought a snow frog also reached the ears of Old Lady Su.

Mrs. Su threw the teacup in her hand and smashed it on the ground.

"Why is he so good! Why can't you kill him! Old Lady Su gasped and said in a vicious voice: "His Royal Highness the eldest grandson actually even begged for the snow frog for him!" No way! Su Zhan must die! ”

Old Mrs. Su raised her head, and the fierceness in her eyes made Mama Xu shudder: "Even if it is an antidote, it needs someone to boil the medicine, if you go in person, you must change the medicine!" ”

Mama Xu shuddered slightly, lowered her head and responded.

Mama Xu came to the small kitchen, and Mrs. Su and Su Zhan's food was made separately by the small kitchen.

It was the little apprentice next to Imperial Physician Zheng who came to decoct Su Zhan, who was seriously looking at the decoction at this time, and Jun Yao was sitting on the side, and the two of them watched together.

Mama Xu frowned slightly, but she still raised a smile to greet her.

"Ouch, hurry up, let me come, Imperial Doctor Zheng saved our third young master, how can you do this kind of rough work!" Mama Xu said and reached out to pick up the fan in the little apprentice's hand.

The little apprentice avoided it, "Mama doesn't have to be polite, my master said that this snow frog is precious, and I need to decoct the medicine myself, so as not to delay the heat and delay the medicinal properties." ”

Mama Xu withdrew her hand curtly: "Really? Hey, this Imperial Doctor Zheng is really careful, no wonder he can save our third young master! ”

"That is, my master has always been meticulous in treating diseases and saving people." The little apprentice said with honor.

Jun Yao glanced at Mama Xu vigilantly, and said with a smile: "Mama, there is a fire burning in this room, you better go out and cool off for a while, there are slaves and maids watching here, you can rest assured." ”

Mama Xu patted her hand and said with a smile: "Hey, the old lady is worried about the third young master's illness, so she specially ordered me to come and take a look, since you are here to watch me, I will be relieved." ”

After Mama Xu finished speaking, she turned around and walked out, Jun Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and after a while, a little maid came over with tea and snacks.

"Miss Seven said that the kitchen was stuffy, and she specially ordered the slave maid to come to Sister Jun Yao." As the little maid spoke, she poured a cup of tea for Jun Yao and the little apprentice.

Jun Yao glanced at it, it was a second-class maid Xiangling in Su Yunlai's room, and she didn't think much about it.

Jun Yao drank a cup of tea, and after a while, she suddenly felt some pain in her stomach, she covered her stomach, and said to the little apprentice with some embarrassment: "Hey, no, I'll go first to make it easier." ”

The little apprentice smiled and nodded: "You go, it's okay." ”

Jun Yao was still not at ease, so she let another little maid watch it for herself.

When Jun Yao came back, the medicine was also fried, "Nothing went wrong, right?" ”

The little apprentice smiled: "Miss Jun Yao, what can go wrong with the decoction?" Don't worry, my master has already instructed me, and I'm staring at it! ”

Jun Yao glanced at the little maid again, and when she saw the little maid nodding, she was relieved.

Jun Yao went out with the medicine bowl, and happened to meet Mama Xu, Mama Xu smiled and said, "The old lady is not worried about the third young master, let me come and have a look." ”

Mama Xu's eyes glanced at the medicine bowl from time to time, Jun Yao didn't notice anything, and returned to Tingyuxuan.

"The medicine should be drunk while it is hot, so hurry up and feed the third young master." As soon as Mama Xu entered the door, she couldn't wait to say: "The old lady is still waiting for the slave's return, the third young master's health is not good for a day, and her old man can't rest assured." ”

"No need, Mama Xu." Su Yunlai walked out slowly from inside, his eyes calm: "The third brother has already drunk medicine." ”

Mama Xu was stunned, glanced at the medicine bowl in Jun Yao's hand, and looked puzzled: "Have you drunk it?" Then this medicine ......"

"This is for Mama Xu, what did Mama Xu add to this medicine?" Su Yun looked at Mama Xu and asked.

Mama Xu's face sank: "Miss Seven, what do you mean?" Although I am a slave, I am also a person next to the old lady, what the slave has not done, if Miss Seven has no evidence, she can't wronged the slave! ”

"If you are not wronged, try it and you will know." Su Yunlai said lightly: "Since you said that you haven't done it, and you haven't touched this medicine, why don't you just take a sip." ”

"The slave is fine, why do you want to drink medicine? Seventh Miss, the slave maid came to visit the third young master on the order of the old lady, if the third young master is fine, then the slave and maid will go back first. After Mama Xu finished speaking, she turned around and walked out.

Two powerful mothers-in-law appeared in front of the door, blocking Mama Xu's way, Mama Xu's expression was blue and white, and she turned her head and looked at Su Yunlai coldly.

"Mama Xu is not in a hurry, I am also going to meet my grandmother." Su Yunlai said lightly.

Su Yunlai really hates this kind of life of guarding everywhere now, I don't know when someone will wait to harm them, if she doesn't fight back, such things will emerge in an endless stream, and they will never stop.

Since this is the case, a gleam flashed in Su Yunlai's eyes, so let's start with Mama Xu first!

Su Yunlai waved his hand, and saw that Xiangling, who had just gone to deliver refreshments to Jun Yao, had been tied up, Mama Xu's face suddenly changed, and she now understood, it turned out that her every move had long been under Su Yunlai's control.

Mama Xu no longer resisted, lowered her head and came to Lingyun Courtyard with Su Yunlai.

When Mrs. Su saw Mama Xu kneeling in front of her, she immediately knew that the matter was revealed.

Su Yunlai knelt next to Mama Xu without saying a word, and said to Mrs. Su: "Grandmother, Mama Xu secretly drugged and attempted to murder the third brother, the evidence is conclusive, please grandmother make the decision for the third brother!" After saying that, she ordered someone to come up with all kinds of evidence.

Including the laxatives that Mama Xu gave Jun Yao in the refreshments just now, as well as the testimony of the maid Xiangling, they were all put in front of Mrs. Su.

Old Mrs. Su calmly thought about how to deal with it, "Mama Xu is an old man next to me, and she has always been loyal, so there must be some misunderstanding in this." ”

Mama Xu also immediately cried: "Old lady, the slave has been following you since she was a child, and she has been loyal to the old lady for so many years, how could she do such a thing?" Someone must have framed the slave! Please let the old lady be the master of the slave! ”

Su Yunlai hooked the corners of her lips, and she knew that Mama Xu couldn't admit it so easily!

"Bold!" Su Yunlai raised his eyebrows and scolded angrily: "You did such a vicious thing!" I dare to say that I am loyal to my grandmother, is it possible that my grandmother asked you to harm my third brother?! ”

Mrs. Su's expression changed suddenly, and she immediately made a decision, Mama Xu can't stay, everyone knows that Mama Xu is loyal to her, but she is a slave, how could she want to murder her master, she is the person next to Mrs. Su, if it is spread, I am afraid that it will affect her.

Old Lady Su's face pale.

Mama Xu deserves to have followed Mrs. Su since she was a child, as soon as she saw her face, she knew that she had become an outcast, she was unwilling to be given up like this, so she hurriedly knelt down two steps, and cried bitterly: "Old lady, ask the old lady to be the master of the slave and maid, the slave and the maid are really wronged, the slave and the maid have never done it, the slave and the maid have always been loyal to the old lady!" The slave and maid are diligent and diligent in running errands for their masters, without the slightest selfishness! ”

"Mama Xu, I advise you to be honest, who instructed you to murder my third brother? Say it, maybe I can ask my grandmother to spare your life, otherwise, don't blame me! Su Yunlai asked angrily.

Su Yun didn't come to attack Mama Xu for the sake of Mrs. Su's tearing of her face, because she knew that with her current strength, she couldn't completely turn her face with Mrs. Su, a word of filial piety was enough to crush her, and she didn't have substantial evidence for Mrs. Su to assassinate Su Zhan, and it was impossible to defeat Mrs. Su with one blow.

However, dealing with a Mama Xu can be regarded as a warning to Mrs. Su, and she also has a subtle mind, she has gradually begun to change everyone's impression of Mrs. Su's 'virtuous and virtuous', if this incident happens again, Mrs. Su's reputation for hard work will not be saved.

In this way, she can continue to plan the rest of the matter, so Mama Xu must confess her guilt today!
