Lu Xiu'er thought about it, raised her head and asked Ye Tanghua: "Mrs. Ye has no symptoms since she was poisoned?"

Ye Tanghua pondered for a moment, bit her lip and said, "I don't know if it's a symptom after poisoning, but my mother is indeed a little abnormal recently, irritable and irritable than usual."

Thinking of what Ye Mushi said today, Ye Tanghua sighed in her heart and added another one: "And forgetfulness." ”

Lu Xiu'er nodded, thought for a while, and finally made up her mind: "I can't be wrong, I know what the poison in Mrs. Ye is." ”

"Miss Xiu'er knows," Ye Tanghua was stunned.

Lu Xiu'er bowed her head and said: "The symptoms match, and it makes sense, I figured out this poison, but if I think about it, this may be a misunderstanding, and it may not be the poison in Mrs. Ye, it may be derived from the cinnabar in the tea." ”

"Cinnabar" Aunt Wenxi was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Miss Lu, cinnabar is not poisonous, slave maid remembers that cinnabar is still a medicinal herb." ”

"Auntie has never heard of the saying that it is a medicine with three points of poison, although cinnabar is a medicinal material, but the dosage is very rigorous, my aunt has seen who eats cinnabar for a penny, cinnabar can cure diseases if used correctly, and it can also kill if it is used wrong."

"But I haven't heard of anyone eating cinnabar to eat something wrong" Chunshui bit her lower lip, and she was at a loss, she was the daughter of a merchant before entering the palace, and she heard her parents say that some parents are short, and she thinks that she still has a wide range of knowledge, but she has never heard that cinnabar can poison people.

"Ordinary people are measured in their own medicine, how can anyone take medicine for poisoning, I haven't heard much about who eats cinnabar and is poisoned, but such examples are not uncommon, do you know the Taoist priest who asked the immortal" Lu Xiuer said with a smile.

Yuqiu nodded: "You know, are you the bull noses in the Baiyun Temple outside the city?"

Lu Xiu'er nodded: "These Taoist priests practice all year round, some of them are for self-cultivation and longevity, and some of them are stunned, and they want to become immortals, and they want to refine some elixirs at a daily price, isn't it?"

Aunt Baihe thought for a while and said with a smile: "But all the Taoist priests who cultivate, there are few who don't know how to make alchemy, I heard that if you practice the golden pill, you can fly to become an immortal if you eat it." ”

Lu Xiuer smiled and said: "Although I don't know any old ways, but there is a second uncle Zhao in the neighborhood of my family, my father sometimes goes out, he annoys his mother-in-law to watch me for a while, once when I was playing at Uncle Zhao's house, someone came to the official mansion, saying that an old master outside the city who was watching was dead, and asked Second Uncle Zhao to see, I had never seen a dead person at that time, and I was so excited that I had to shout to see it, Second Uncle Zhao couldn't resist me, so he took me there." ”

"Is that the old viewer just like Miss Xiu'er said, who died after eating cinnabar" Yuge couldn't help but interject when she heard this.

Lu Xiu'er smiled: "Yes, it doesn't count." The old master wanted to become an immortal, practiced a lot of pills, secretly swallowed the gold pill he refined the night before, and died the next day, I also secretly glanced at it, the burned skin and lips were purple and chapped, it can be seen that this gold pill is poisonous, and then I heard the second uncle Zhao talk to the official master, saying that the dansha in the gold pill ate bad people. ”

"This cinnabar has always been the best grade for alchemy, where there is no alchemy pill without cinnabar, it is just a matter of eating the golden pill and not becoming an immortal, how can you still eat bad people" Aunt Wenxi was also at a loss.

"Although I was young at the time, I also knew this truth, and there was also cinnabar on the peace charm in the Taoist temple, and I felt that cinnabar was a good thing, and when I went home, I asked Second Uncle Zhao, and Second Uncle Zhao told me that the toxicity of cinnabar is not small on weekdays, and the medicine is only about one point, and if it is too much, it will be bad, and once this cinnabar is overheated, it will become a poison, and the old master is bad in this." Lu Xiu'er smiled and came one by one.

"It turns out that cinnabar can't go overboard, this is the first time I've heard of it." Qin Xin frowned.

"If the girls pay attention to it on weekdays, they can notice it, but where the recipe for cinnabar is either a pill or a powder, where is there a decoction soup with cinnabar, this is the truth, cinnabar is indeed medicine on weekdays, but once it is overheated, it becomes poison."

Lu Xiu'er rubbed the leaves scattered from the Longtuan Tea with her hand: "Judging from Mrs. Ye's condition, there is not much cinnabar in this tea, and Longtuan Tea has always put all kinds of spices into it, and it is not uncommon for someone to put some medicinal materials in their ingenuity." I'm afraid that some people don't know the art of tea but want to take tricks, hoping to make the tea more calming effect, so I added cinnabar to the group tea, although the mind is clever, but it is a pity that it is self-defeating. Cinnabar has the effect of calming the nerves, but he wants to make a group tea, and the group tea must be roasted before drinking. ”

When Ye Tanghua heard this, she calmed down a little, and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, is there any way to save it?"

Lu Xiu'er smiled and took out a piece of paper from the purse on her waist and handed it to Ye Tanghua: "It's really a coincidence, I can help with the girl's help." At that time, I was frightened by the appearance of the old watchman, for fear that I would take the wrong medicine one day, and I would also be poisoned by cinnabar, so an old man in the neighborhood prescribed me this antidote prescription, and I still carry it with me from time to time, as long as Mrs. Ye takes it from time to time, it will not be a big problem. ”

Ye Tanghua was able to completely let go of this hanging heart at this time, no matter what, the poison in Ye Mu's family was not hopeless, and it was already thankful, as for whether this cinnabar was self-defeating by the person who made the tea, or whether the person with the heart was the obstruction, it can be slowly investigated. The so-called gentleman is not too late to take revenge for ten years, for those who dare to harm her, she has time and patience, slowly find the mastermind behind the scenes, and slowly clean up.

Knowing the poison and knowing the antidote to the poison, what needs to be done now is to believe her words with Ye Mushi, but this is more difficult than anything, Ye Mushi has treated her as a child, but now she is anxious and irritable by this cinnabar, and the anger comes up when she says it is not right in three sentences, she doesn't care that Ye Mushi treats her as a child, but she is afraid that Ye Mushi will insist on going her own way and hurt her body again.

Ye Tanghua thought about it, and still felt that the matter should be entrusted to Lu Xiu'er, Ye Mu's family didn't take her words seriously, so she couldn't help but consider Lu Xiu'er's words as an expert

Thinking of this, Ye Tanghua couldn't help but look at Lu Xiu'er with a little pleading: "Miss Xiu'er, I have written down your credit, and he will repay him in the future, but now my mother doesn't take my words seriously, I'm afraid that this tea is poisonous, and I have to tell her through you." ”

Lu Xiu'er even guessed the poison, would she still care about this little thing, and the more things she helps Ye Tanghua sit on now, the easier it will be to do things when she asks Ye Tanghua to do things in the future, so she nodded calmly: "Help people to the end, send the Buddha to the west, the girl doesn't have to worry, the matter is on me." ”

As she said, early the next morning, Lu Xiuer dressed up early and followed Ye Tanghua to Mingguangyuan.

Ye Mushi was used to seeing the maid beside Ye Tanghua, but now that he saw Lu Xiu'er's face at first glance, he couldn't help but take a few more looks: "Tang'er, this one next to you is"

Ye Tanghua knew that Ye Mushi had noticed Lu Xiu'er, so she smiled and motioned Lu Xiu'er to come over: "This is the tea master who Tang'er mentioned to you yesterday who understands tea." ”

Lu Xiu'er walked over generously and bowed: "The people's daughter Lu Xiu'er has seen Mrs. ”

Ye Mushi saw that Lu Xiu'er was born clean and delicate, and her demeanor was steady and decent, but she also had a good impression: "Get up, you are Tang'er's tea master, that is, the west seat in the mansion, you don't need so much courtesy, sit down." ”

Lu Xiu'er responded with a smile and sat down under Ye Tanghua, Ye Tanghua said with a smile: "Mother, the child took your tea back yesterday, and opened a bag of Yunwu tea that you are used to drinking in the evening, it tastes really good, why don't you go to that tea today."

Ye Mushi nodded with a smile and motioned to Yuxia to make tea: "That tea is Longtuan tea made of Lushan Yunwu, with a lot of spices added to it, which is naturally better than ordinary tea, if you like it, just take some back." ”

Ye Tanghua was noncommittal, but just exchanged glances with Lu Xiu'er, and Lu Xiu'er smiled back, signaling her to rest assured.

Yuxia quickly walked over with three teas, because the three teas were poisonous this time, so the poison jade was also extraordinarily bright, almost revealing the neckline, but fortunately, Yuxia didn't have anything else, so she hurriedly put down the teacup and left.

Lu Xiu'er picked up the teacup, first lifted the lid of the cup and looked at it twice, then sniffed the aroma, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Ye Mushi about to drink tea, and hurriedly put down the teacup: "Madam, slow, this tea can't be drunk."

Ye Mu's tea was brought to her mouth, and when she saw Lu Xiu'er say this, she couldn't help but be full of doubts: "Miss Lu, what's wrong?"

Lu Xiu'er got up and walked to Ye Mu's side, first picked up Ye Mu's tea and sniffed it, and then looked at Ye Mu's with a serious face: "Mrs. Ye has been feeling unwell a lot lately?"

Ye Mushi was stunned: "How does this Lu girl know?"

"Madame has been excited, moody, irritable, depressed, suspicious, and forgetful lately, but is there such a thing?" said Lu Xiu'er with a straight face.

Ye Mushi smiled reluctantly: "That's true. But I'm a little older now, so that's normal."

"This is not normal, madam, you are like this because you have been poisoned." Lu Xiu'er sighed.

Ye Mushi was stunned for a moment, and then his face was a little unkind: "My daily food is tried with silver needles, where is the poisonous girl, isn't it colluding with Tang'er to find me happy, Tang'er's girl is young and stubborn and ignorant, the girl can't be naughty with her"

When Lu Xiuer heard Ye Mu's words at first glance, she felt sorry for Ye Tanghua in her heart, this mother is too confused, she can't understand what she says, Ye Tanghua is busy for her, she is good, and she is not the one who arranges Ye Tanghua

But having said that, Lu Xiu'er still couldn't help but continue acting, smiled and said: "Madam, some poisons can't be tried with silver needles, don't say anything else, do you try the tea you drink on weekdays with silver needles?"

Ye Mushi shook his head, but he still disagreed: "The girl is talking nonsense, how can this tea be tried with a needle and then drunk without paying attention to that share." If the girl is naughty with Tang'er, let's rest her mind as soon as possible, Tang'er, this girl has always been rebellious, I can never be so obedient to her anymore If you talk nonsense again, I don't care whose mind it is, I will definitely be thrown out"
