Chapter Eighty-Five: A Night in a Hurry
Back to the yard, the firecrackers simply packed their bags, the road was rugged and far away, and it was inconvenient to bring too many things.
Besides, she had nothing to bring, nothing more than a few clothes, silver taels and pastries.
She can't ride a horse, and riding a carriage is bound to be slower than riding a horse, and she is not afraid of bumps, but she is afraid of delaying the second lady's detoxification time.
When she was a child, she also went far away, but basically walked on two legs, wandering for a few years, she also walked around and stopped, tired and fortunate to meet well-wishers rubbed on a section of ox cart,
entered the county seat and continued to mingle with beggars from all walks of life.
If she is so alert and alert, I am afraid that she has been practicing since she was a child, and she is used to seeing the warmth and coldness of countless people, and she has also tasted the kindness handed by honest people.
She knows very well that it is the foundation of people to repay kindness, and if there is a grudge, it must be repaid, but it must also make the enemy feel painful.
If their master and servant have a big life this time, they will come back to make the eldest lady look good.
In recent days, in addition to thinking about how to get rid of Kun Jiang, she has also wondered how the second lady was poisoned.
Madame's diet has always been checked by the maids first, and the second lady is very suspicious and will never eat food outside the garden in private.
If there is anything unusual in recent days, it is that the second lady was scratched by the third lady's hand and has not recovered for a long time.
Yes, it stands to reason that the air is getting cooler today, and the wound should not heal so slowly, she only thought that the wound was quite deep at the beginning, but now she thinks about it.
Since then, the second lady has felt unwell and depressed all day long, but it is not so serious, so the poison of this misanthropic incense must not have been at that time.
And then ....... And then ......
It was the third lady who came to give the second lady the medicine, and soon after three days, the second lady suddenly became poisonous, and her legs were red and swollen.
At that time, she also instructed the maids in Nanyuan to carefully inspect the ointment and powder brought by the doctor, but Ruyu said that there was nothing unusual after the inspection.
In those days, she was busy meeting her lover privately, ignoring the movements of Nanyuan, so that the third lady could take advantage of it, presumably she couldn't think of such a clever means alone.
Unexpectedly, she dared to openly poison in broad daylight, and used the prime minister and the old lady to coerce the second lady.
With the second lady's temperament, she would never accept her medicine, and it seems that the third lady had already planned everything.
That medicinal powder must be the pollen of the misanthropic incense, Huai Gongzi said, as long as the misanthropic incense is combined with any kind of medicinal powder, it will produce highly poisonous, so every time I get it to the doctors in the house,
None of them could see the clues.
Jianghu Langzhong is cunning and rabbit three holes, claiming that he needs to take medicine for three days in a row, and the ointment ration is different each time, so he can't fake the hands of others.
I'm just afraid that I don't want to be noticed, so I can take this opportunity to secretly change the powder.
They mixed the pollen and powder of the misanthropy several times, and infiltrated the second lady's body through the wound, so as to delay the time of the poison, but in this way, it will also slow down the toxicity of the misanthropy.
In this way, they can push away their disgust, and the poison of this misanthropic incense is ninety percent similar to malaria, and the imperial doctors in the palace have all diagnosed it wrong, so they can rest easy!
It's really hard to prevent, the second lady can be poisoned if she lies at home well, and she may come up with some tricks next time.
Alas! What kind of life do I have, wandering when I was a child, and I have to sacrifice my life for others when I grow up, did I owe any debt in my last life?
Firecrackers rolled up their sleeves and went out, and when they looked up, they saw Huai Gongzi standing in the yard.
"Huh? Why didn't you go? Repented? "Huai Gongzi has a tone that I had expected.
"No, let's go today."
"Found a helper?"
"Well, the old lady can't come back, so I begged someone else."
"Who is it?"
"Nature can't tell you!" Firecrackers pouted, although Huai Gongzi told her about the poisoning and the antidote to the poison, but the matter was so important that she couldn't tell Shan Heng.
"What a conscience!"
"Oh, you can be considerate of me, you are good friends with the prime minister, how do I know if you will accidentally ...... one day"
"You mean, this person is familiar to me? Or is he also on good terms with the prime minister? Huai Gongzi frowned.
"Even if it is, there are so many people who are close to the prime minister.......
"That's it, I'm not interested in guessing, I thought the locust tree was mine tonight."
"I'm not going to rob you, I have something to do tonight, and no one will rob you of that tree from tonight."
"Wait!" Firecrackers were about to leave the hospital, but they saw someone behind him shouting.
"What?"
"Originally, I wanted to give this to you yesterday, but I was helplessly entangled for a while, and today I met again, it was God's will."
"What's that?"
"Oh, you take this purse, when you get to Kunjiang, you go to the largest pharmacy in the north of Pingguo County to find a person who decides the soup, give him the purse, and explain your intention.
He will take you to the lake and help you. ”
"This person is your acquaintance?" The firecracker took the purse and looked up and down, the purse was beautifully embroidered and very pleasing to the eye.
"Well, he owes me his life!"
"Wow! I've borrowed your favor, but it's not good? ”
"Then you'll come back!" Huai Gongzi made a gesture to withdraw the purse in her hand.
"Don't ...... How can you easily ask for the things that have been given away? Thank you very much! Firecracker raised an eyebrow.
"But why are you helping me? We're not here yet, are we? I'm really a little unsure to ask me to receive such a great favor from you......"
"Well, don't be kind, wait until you come back alive! I only said that Tang Jue will help you, and naturally how to pick the Bian Bian grass still depends on yourself.
I'm not going to let my own people ride with you. ”
"I understand, but I still have to thank you......"
"Go ahead, I'm going to sleep well in the tree tonight, and don't wake me up when you come back."
Huai Gongzi waved his hand, turned around and walked under the tree, and jumped on the tree lightly.
Firecrackers didn't say anything more, it seems that God really helps me!
There are so many nobles who have come out to help for a while, it seems that the second lady, you really shouldn't die!
She slipped into the North Garden, wrote a letter by moonlight in the little young master's study, and pressed it on the bookshelf, the height of which happened to be where the little young master could reach.
ran into Master Hengto's room again and gently woke him up from his sleep.
The little young master looked at the firecrackers lying at his bedside in black clothes in the middle of the night, and his face was confused.
"Firecrackers, what are you doing?" The little young master who was disturbed by his sweet dream was very displeased, if it wasn't for her in front of him, he was afraid that he would have been anxious a long time ago.
"Young master, I left a letter in the first row of the shelves in your study, under the stack of "The Biography of Gu Liang".
"Leave a letter?" The little young master was still confused, this girl ran into his room in the middle of the night, disturbed his dreams, and wrote a letter to inform her?
"This letter is very important, it is reserved for the old lady, when the old lady returns home in a few days, you must hand it over to her for me, understand?"
"Why don't you give it to her personally?"
"You stupid, what can I do to her personally? I'm going to be away for a few days in the near future, and I don't know when I'll be back. ‘
"You're leaving?" The little young master suddenly raised his voice.
"Be quiet!" Firecrackers hurriedly covered his mouth.
"Where are you going?" Fuji asked quietly as she snapped her fingers.
"Go and do something!"
"Does your lady know?"
"Know...... I'm going to do big things, big things that matter to people's lives. ”
"Human life..... Guan Tian? This sentence is beyond the scope of the little master's cognition.
"You don't understand if you say too much, you remember, that letter must be handed over to the old lady, and it can't be known by anyone, especially the third lady."
"Oh......" The little master nodded as if he didn't understand.
"Alas! It's not easy to find children to do things, and I still can't let go of what I always have to tell you a lot. ”
"Young Master, my life is in your hands! You must remember! If that letter doesn't reach your grandmother, my life will be gone. ”
"Your life?"
"That's right! That letter is about the life of a firecracker! ”
"How terrible is that?" The little young master patted his chest with a milky voice.
"So young master, if you want to die with firecrackers, you don't have to take this matter to heart."
"But I don't want you to die!"
"Then remember my confession!"
"Good ......"
The little young master still nodded as if he didn't understand.
"Forget it! Let's sleep! Firecracker put him down on the bed: "Close your eyes, remember to go to the bookshelf tomorrow morning to look for the letter." ”
"Oh...... Firecrackers, will you ever come back? The little young master asked with his big round eyes.
"Yes, wait for me ......" Firecracker winked at him.
After a while, when the little master gradually became sleepy, she opened the door and left.
Sneakily back to the courtyard, Firecracker returned to the room, waiting for the arrival of the hour, she must go out before the time to prevent the incident.
The acacia boy in the tree was not sleepy, and when he was in the tree, he saw firecrackers burrowing through the flowers like a cat.
"This girl really has the potential to be a thief......"
Firecrackers lay on the table, and their eyelids gradually began to fight: "Can't sleep!" Can't sleep! If you want to sleep, you can only sleep on the road! ”
In a trance, I finally heard the rooster crowing outside the window, and the firecrackers hurriedly took the baggage, and finally took a look at the house where I had lived for several and a half years.
Ran out of the door without looking back.
glanced at the locust tree, and the figure of the person was long gone.
"What a freak, obviously a distinguished guest of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but he runs to sleep on the tree every night, and he doesn't show his true face."
Forget it, I don't have time to study his affairs now, so let's estimate it for now.
Coming to the wall of the side door, the weeds under the wall were so overgrown that they barely reached her waist.
It's not yet midnight, the sky hasn't dawned yet, and the firecrackers can't find where the dog hole is for a while.
No sooner had she gotten into the grass than she heard a shout not far away.
"Hurry up! Go over there! I seem to see a dark shadow over there! ”
Oops! It's Aunt Xin's voice!
