"Come on, tie up the third lady"
Bai Junzhuo was slightly surprised, tied her? Could it be that something is happening again?
Although she was puzzled, she didn't resist, and was tied up and taken to Bai Juntao's room, but saw Zou looking at Bai Juntao lying on the bed with a worried face.
What happened to Bai Juntao?
"Old lady, the third lady brought it."
Zou Shi looked back at Bai Junzhuo, saw that she was tied up, and said angrily, "I said bring the third young lady over, who asked you to tie her!" ”
"This ......" The mama who took the lead glanced at the eldest lady on the bed, no one asked her to tie up the third lady, but the eldest lady is like this now, and the old lady has always loved the eldest lady, so they took it upon themselves to tie the third lady over.
She saw that the old lady seemed to be angry, so she immediately untied Bai Junzhuo.
"Zhuo'er, come and see your sister."
The old lady opened her mouth and said, Bai Junzhuo hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward, stood two steps away from the bed, looked down at Bai Juntao, just one look, Bai Junzhuo was startled, and took two steps back.
"Zhuo'er, do you know what's wrong with your sister?" Zou asked coldly.
"My sister is short of breath, her face is flushed, there is blood at the corner of her mouth, her eyes are bloodshot but her expression is clear, and there is a pustule on her left arm, I think my sister has been poisoned by the heart refining flower." Bai Junzhuo replied calmly.
Zou raised his eyes to look at her, didn't say a word for a long time, Bai Junzhuo didn't take the initiative to speak, Bai Juntao on the bed was in a hurry, and secretly glanced at the maid Bihe who was waiting by her bedside.
Bihe understood, quickly knelt down, and cried and shouted, "Old lady, you have to be the master of the eldest lady!" Everyone in the White Mansion knows that the Heart Refining Flower is highly poisonous, and the only ones who refined the Heart Refining Flower Poison before but they are fine are the Third Miss and the Master, it must be the Third Miss who poisoned the eldest Miss! ”
Zou just looked at Bai Junzhuo and asked, "Zhuo'er, what do you have to say?" ”
Bai Junzhuo had already roughly guessed what was going on, she took a deep breath, and said to Zou without humility or arrogance, "Grandma, I didn't do it. ”
"Third Miss! Why do you treat the eldest lady like this, the eldest lady is so good to you, she secretly went over to see you last night and brought you food, why do you want to take revenge! Bihe's face was full of tears, and she cried to Bai Junzhuo.
Bai Junzhuo didn't bother to pay attention to her.
"Bihe......" Bai Juntao said weakly, pulling La Bihe and said, "Don't talk nonsense, how can it be the third sister, the third sister stayed in the ancestral hall last night, it is impossible for her to come to me to poison her, and the third sister has always been close to me, it is absolutely impossible to ......"
"No, Miss, the third miss left the ancestral hall last night, and in the morning, Mother Zhang said that the lawn under the window of the ancestral hall was trampled on, Third Miss, why do you want to harm my young lady!"
Bai Junzhuo ignored the double reeds of the master and servant, and just looked at the Zou family.
Zou Shi had a cold face and said, "Zhuo'er, you went out last night?" ”
Bai Junzhuo nodded without hesitation, "That's right, I sneaked out of the ancestral hall last night. ”
The pair of masters and servants thought that Bai Junzhuo was going to deny it, but they didn't expect her to admit it in one go, so that they didn't know what to say.
Bai Junzhuo said unhurriedly, "The heart refining flower poison must be picked and refined at that time, and it must be used immediately after refining, otherwise it will lose its medicinal properties." It takes four hours to refine, and the eldest sister went to see me at the right time, and the rooster crowed at two o'clock when it was ugly, and some guards inspected the ancestral hall and saw that I was still there. So I didn't do it. ”
Everyone was inexplicably said, but Bihe reacted quickly and immediately asked, "Didn't the time just coincide?" The third lady ran out of the ancestral hall after the eldest lady left, and it was exactly four hours from the time of the sea to the ugly time, and the third lady still had two moments to go back and prepare! ”
After a while, Zou Shi thought for a while, and then asked, "Zhuo'er, what else do you have to say?" ”
Bai Junzhuo actually laughed and said, "Grandma, the poison was indeed not ordered by me, I ran out of the ancestral hall last night because my grandmother was very angry with me for selling the medicine hall, so I wanted to go to the man to get the medicine hall back." When I thought of my grandmother's angry appearance, I was very worried, so I ran out overnight and stayed until I was ugly, and I didn't come back until I was ugly, and I didn't have time to refine the heart refining flower poison. If my grandmother doesn't believe me, she can find that person to confront me, and she doesn't have to worry about me colluding with that person. ”
The smile on Bai Junzhuo's face became more and more like a bitter smile, as if he was sad that Zou didn't believe her, Zou frowned slightly, thought to himself, and said, "Come over and show your eldest sister first, and get rid of the poison!" ”
Bai Junzhuo obediently went over, checked Bai Juntao's pulse, and said, "The eldest sister is not the poison after refining, but the original poison of the flower, you only need to take off the flower stem and grind it into powder." ”
Zou's expression changed slightly, he glanced at Bai Juntao, and said to him, "Why don't you go and get the flower stems!" ”
Turning to Bai Jun Zhuo, he said, "Zhuo'er, even if the poison wasn't given by you, you shouldn't have secretly run out of the ancestral hall against my orders!" However, if you are for the Bai Family Medicine Hall, I will not punish you this time. How's the matter going in the medicine hall? Would that man be willing to return the medicine hall? ”
Bai Junzhuo shook his head and said, "I'm sorry grandma, no matter what I say, that person is unwilling to return the medicine hall......"
Zou frowned for a long time, finally sighed, and said, "I'll go see him in person!" ”
Bai Junzhuo said, "Grandma, Zhuo'er also thought that it would be better for grandma to see him in person, so I asked that person to come and see grandma and discuss with grandma in person, and he agreed." ”
Zou glanced at her with a slight appreciation, nodded and said, "Yes, Zhuo'er has indeed grown, you can go out first." ”
"Yes, Grandma." Bai Junzhuo glanced at Bai Juntao lying on the bed, a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth, and he withdrew.
After she left, Bai Juntao called out weakly, "Grandma......"
"Lie down and don't speak," Zou glanced at her and said quietly, "Let me ask you, what's the matter with the poison on your body?" ”
"I ...... I don't know, but it definitely won't be the third sister's doing......" There is water and light flowing in Bai Juntao's eyes, and it is pitiful.
"Of course I know that she didn't do it," Zou stood up, and his figure with the light on his back cast a haze on Bai Juntao's body, "I won't pursue this matter, but don't try to make a mistake in front of me, don't think that there is anything in this Bai Mansion that can hide from me!" ”
After speaking, Zou walked out on crutches and with the support of her grandmother.
Bai Juntao looked at the door and shouted through gritted teeth, "Bai Junzhuo! ”
*
When it was time, Mo Ying went to Baifu alone. Zou thought that he was the one who bought the medicine hall, so he asked him to take him to the front hall and meet him in person.
After some politeness, Zou asked, "Childe, the Bai family's medicine hall is the foundation of the Bai family for a hundred years, my granddaughter is not sensible and sold the medicine hall, although the son speaks, how much does it cost to return the medicine hall to the Bai family?" ”
"I'm sorry, Old Madam Bai," Mo Ying smiled politely, "No matter how much, I can't do it." ”
"Young man, you want the medicine hall just to make a profit, and now the medicine hall has lost a lot, it is not a wise move for you to take over the medicine hall." Zou's face suddenly turned cold.
"Old lady, don't worry, I don't want money, but I want your Bai family, another thing."
Zou Shi thought for a moment, his face darkened by three points, and said, "Could it be that you want to ......?"
"I don't know if the old lady is willing to ......"
"Don't think!" Zou said, "Young man, I admire your courage, but don't forget, you are now in the Bai family!" ”
As soon as Zou's words fell, a large wave of subordinates rushed in from outside and surrounded Mo Ying.
Mo Ying secretly sighed, the soft is not the hard, and she is really worthy of being the daughter of the old general of the previous dynasty.
He stood still, calculated the time, and his master should have arrived.
Sure enough, someone came in and said, "Old lady, there is a person outside who said that he came to discuss the matter of the medicine hall with the old lady." Zou looked at Mo Ying, thought for a moment, and then sneered, "It turns out that you were sent here to take the lead. ”
"That's right, old lady, my master has a good status, how can I let my master personally get into danger."
"I'd like to see who has a good identity!" Zou snorted coldly and asked people to bring Yin Xun in.
Yin Xun followed his subordinates in, and Zou was a little surprised when he saw Yin Xun's face, but he didn't move.
Yin Xun spoke first, "Yin has seen the old lady, how is the old lady doing recently?" ”
"Lao Gongzi remembers, the old body didn't expect that it was Yin Gongzi who bought the Bai Family Medicine Hall, since the son is here, it is better to stay and eat, let's talk about the medicine hall in detail!" Zou said coldly, his momentum undiminished.
"That's what I mean." Yin Xun said with a smile.
The Zou family sent someone to take them down, and after a while, a table of meals was set up, Yin Xun sat opposite the Zou family, and said with a drink, "Old lady, Yin is a junior, respect the old lady for a cup." ”
"Don't dare to be," Zou said, "The old body doesn't understand, why is the Nine Princes so interested in my Bai Family Medicine Hall?" ”
"Isn't the old lady the same, she cares a lot about this little medicine hall?" Yin Xun smiled and put the wine glass down.
"After all, this has been passed down from generation to generation by the Bai family, and when I marry into the Bai family, I have the responsibility to guard it for the Bai family! For the prince, the medicine hall may be a plaything when he is bored, but for the Bai family, it is fate! Zou's voice trembled slightly.
"So the juniors didn't kill them all, didn't they still let your Bai family's Miss Yan be in charge of the medicine hall?"
The Zou family was blocked by this sentence, was silent for a while, and said, "Childe, how can we return the medicine hall to the Bai family?" ”
"Didn't Mo Ying say it?" Yin Xun asked rhetorically, "He didn't tell you that my real purpose is something like the Bai family?" ”
"No!" Zou Shi patted the table and stood up, and said, "That thing, like the Medicine Hall, is extremely important to the Bai family!" ”
Yin Xun shook the wine glass in his hand and said with a smile, "Then I have to continue to occupy the medicine hall." ”
Zou was angry in his heart, held the crutches in his hand tightly, and only let go after a while, his expression returned to normal, and said to Yin Xun, "That old body is thank you Gongzi, and continue to let the descendants of the Bai family take care of the medicine hall." ”
"It's easy to say," Yin Xun said, "The old general is a veteran of the Three Dynasties, so he naturally wants to give the old lady a face." ”
Zou thought in his heart, Yin Xun's real purpose was not Yaotang, but he wanted to use Yaotang to blackmail her. As long as the person in charge of the medicine hall is still from the Bai family, the medicine hall will not really fall into the hands of others.
It's just that Bai Junzhuo is young and has no experience, unlike Bai Juntao, who has been taking care of the medicine hall with her mother since she was a child, and it would be better if the medicine hall was handed over to Bai Juntao. And the poison on Bai Juntao's body has been resolved, so it's better to let her come over.
So Zou Shi spoke, "Lord Wang, Zhuo'er is young, how can you rest assured that she is in charge of the medicine hall for you?" I also have a granddaughter, she's cautious, smart and capable, I think ......."
"I think Miss Bai Junzhuo is doing a good job." Yin Xun interrupted her.
Zou Shi paused and said, "That's because the prince hasn't seen my eldest granddaughter, so why don't I call her over and show the prince." ”
Yin Xun nodded indifferently and said, "The old lady is casual." ”
In the eyes of the Zou family, even if Bai Junzhuo has made progress, he still lacks the heat. It's better to call her over and compare it with Bai Juntao, so that she can see her own shortcomings in order to improve herself.
So Zou instructed his subordinates, "Go and call the eldest lady and the third lady over." ”
