Chapter 191: Poisoning

In Bai Yanqing's early years, he also studied medical skills with Hua Wenyuan for a few years, although it was only some superficial kung fu, but he still knew how to take the pulse in a superficial way!

Right now, in Hua Wenyuan's situation, let's go to find other doctors, not to mention that it's too late, just say that other doctors can't be trusted, Bai Yanqing still doesn't know! Looking at Hua Wenyuan, who had a weak breath on the bed, Bai Yanqing couldn't care about it!

"I'll try!"

Bai Yanqing stepped forward, checked Hua Wenyuan's pulse, and then checked his pupils and complexion, and came to a conclusion: Hua Wenyuan was poisoned!

"Poisoning?!"

Chu Aotian was obviously a little surprised! Looking at him like this, it doesn't look like he's pretending!

"Dr. Hua's injuries are not to be feared, and they really won't cause fear for his life! Really hurt him so much...... It's poison in his body! According to the time calculation, the poison on his body was after entering the Chu Lord's Mansion!"

Bai Yanqing took the handkerchief handed over by Yun Qi and carefully wiped his hand again and again! Only then did he hurriedly speak and said to Chu Aotian!

According to Bai Yanqing's investigation, the poison in Hua Wenyuan's body is still shallow! It's also a loss of time, otherwise, Hua Wenyuan is now afraid that he would have died a long time ago!

"Who dares to poison Wen Yuan right under my nose?!"

Chu Aotian was furious! If you think about it, that is, there is a hidden crisis in his house! Under his nose, there are people at any time, who can kill their entire house! Thinking about it smaller, that is, someone deliberately poisoned Hua Wenyuan!

It's just that what kind of person can have such courage? And how can there be such a means?

"Lord Chu, don't panic! Can you take a look at what kind of medicine Dr. Hua has been taking these days?"

Bai Yanqing held down Chu Aotian and asked. She is quite sober and calm, at this time, the more anxious she is, the easier it is to make trouble, obviously, Bai Yanqing has completely calmed down at this moment!

Hearing this, Chu Aotian hurriedly ordered someone to bring the prescription prescribed by the doctor before to Bai Yanqing!

Bai Yanqing took the prescription, looked at it carefully, and didn't see anything unusual! The medicines prescribed by the doctor are indeed some, some drugs that invigorate blood and dispel blood stasis, relieve pain and strengthen the foundation! For people who have just been injured, these medicines are nothing more than ordinary medicines, and there is nothing wrong with them!

"Where's the dregs?"

Bai Yanqing thought about it for a while, and then asked Chu Aotian to call the little maid who boiled medicine for Hua Wenyuan every day!

"Lord Hui, this is the residue of today's medicine!"

The little maid, whose hands and feet were also nimble, heard Chu Aotian say that he wanted to check the medicine residue, so he immediately brought the medicine jar! She opened the medicine jar, and the residue inside was unobstructed!

Bai Yanqing stretched out his hand, took the medicine jar, and then poured out all the medicine residue in the medicine jar! The strong smell of medicine is coming to your nose! Bai Yanqing couldn't help it, and frowned!

Looking at the dregs, there is nothing unusual!

Bai Yanqing has been picking and choosing among the medicine residue for a long time, and he has not found any drugs, which is inappropriate!

That's weird! There is no problem with the prescription, and there is no problem with the residue, so what is the problem? So Dr. Hua, how did he get poisoned?

On the table at the head of the bed, there is still a medicine bowl, I think about it, I just fed Dr. Hua medicine this morning! Bai Yanqing stared at the medicine bowl tightly, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in her mind! She turned around, walked briskly to the bed, and then took out the silverware she had brought with her and threw it into the medicine bowl!

"And so it was!"

Bai Yanqing suddenly screamed with realization!

Hearing this, Yun Qi and Chu Aotian hurriedly walked over to find out!

Sure enough, the silverware in the medicine bowl turned black!

"This bowl of medicine is also poisonous?!"

Chu Aotian was surprised by what he saw, and immediately ordered someone to drag the little girl who delivered the medicine down!

"Call me! Fight until she moves! Let me see, who is so bold as to dare to assassinate others in my house!"

Chu Aotian made people sigh, according to the little girl, and couldn't help but say, they were going to beat her!

"Wait! Master Chu is not in a hurry, let the little girl first, and ask her a few words!"

Bai Yanqing raised his hand and stopped Chu Aotian!

Seeing this, although Chu Aotian was angry in his heart, he still had to hold back his anger and let Bai Yanqing step forward!

"Little girl, let me ask you, in the past few days, this medicine bowl, but you personally brought it to feed him?"

Bai Yanqing bent over, half-squatted in front of the little maid, and asked softly.

"Yes!"

That girl also seems to be stubborn, even at this time, she still holds her head high and doesn't shout a word of grievance!

"You also made the medicine yourself?"

Bai Yanqing continued to ask.

"Yes!"

The maid is still outspoken! did not evade Bai Yanqing's questioning at all!

"Now that this medicine is confirmed, it is poison, what do you have to say to your family? Would you like to defend yourself?"

Bai Yanqing then asked her.

"The slave didn't poison it! Slaves and maids don't have to defend themselves, and those who are clean will clear themselves!"

The little girl is quite arrogant! She looked at Bai Yanqing's eyes, without a trace of fear and weakness!

"Good! I believe you for the time being!"

Bai Yanqing straightened up and glanced at the little maid who was pressed to the ground, and she felt a little pity for her!

"Lord Chu, this girl is from your house, she will be beaten and punished, and I and other outsiders will naturally not say much! It's just that if you want to find out the poisoner now, you still need her help! I hope that your lordship will show mercy first!"

Bai Yanqing opened her mouth and said, not completely, she pleaded for the girl.

Chu Aotian hesitated for a moment, and then nodded helplessly in agreement. After all, this girl is indeed the only person who has come into contact with that bowl of medicine, if she is really killed, then there is no way to investigate this matter!

After many investigations, Bai Yanqing could only know from the mouth of this maid that the medicine decocted to Dr. Hua, from brewing medicine, boiling medicine to serving to Dr. Hua, there was no fake hand to others, and only this maid handled it!

Such an investigation result was expected by Bai Yanqing!

"You go again, repeat the process of your daily decoction! We'll watch and see if there's anything missing!"

Bai Yanqing commanded the little maid.

The little maid nodded, grabbed the medicine bag and walked to the kitchen. The maid first poured all the medicine into the medicine jar, added water, soaked for half an hour, then lit a fire, boiled for half an hour, and after boiling three bowls of water into a bowl of water, she extinguished the stove, and after the medicine jar cooled down for a while, it was not so hot, and then poured all the decoction into the bowl! The steaming decoction has a strong bitter and astringent taste!

Bai Yanqing stepped forward, picked up the medicine bowl, and after carefully examining it for a while, he put in a silver needle again!

"Sure enough, it's dark again!"

Bai Yanqing raised the blackened silver needle in front of Chu Aotian and Yun Qi!

They all watched the whole process of boiling the medicine tightly, and it was absolutely impossible for her to have a chance to be poisoned! So what's the problem?

Bai Yanqing seemed to suddenly remember something, she poured out all the medicine in the bowl, and then, in the bowl, poured the freshly boiled water! Finally, she took a silver needle again and inserted it into the water bowl!

"It's not black?!"

Bai Yanqing's eyes were full of shock! She originally thought that it was the problem of the bowl, that someone had smeared poison in the bowl, which caused the decoction poured into the bowl to be contaminated with poison! Now it seems that the poison is not in the bowl!

Since the poison is not in the bowl...... So, where will it be?

Bai Yanqing closed her eyes and thought carefully about the whole process of boiling the maid medicine several times! Still can't figure it out!

"Meow~Meow~Meow~"

A few cat meows pulled Bai Yanqing's thoughts back!

"Where did the wildcats come from? Get out of here!"

The cooks in the kitchen, when they saw a wild cat, immediately waved their burning sticks to drive it away!

The wild cat flew away

Quickly, as soon as he jumped, he jumped in front of Bai Yanqing! Before everyone could react, the wild cat suddenly jumped, kicked on its hind legs, and directly kicked the medicine jar next to the stove to the ground!

With a shattering sound of "pop", the medicine jar fell to the ground and fell apart!

Perhaps the movement of the medicine jar smashing to the ground was too loud, and the wild cat was obviously startled, and it rushed towards the door! The speed was so fast that everyone was caught off guard!

"Ahh

Bai Yanqing was frightened and took several steps backwards!

"Be careful!"

Yun Qi hurriedly stepped forward and took Bai Yanqing into his arms steadily!

It wasn't until he confirmed that Bai Yanqing was okay that Yun Qi was relieved.

"This medicine jar ......"

Bai Yanqing, who was in a panic, suddenly saw the torn medicine jar on the ground, it seemed that something was not quite right, so he bent down to check it immediately!

Bai Yanqing took out a handkerchief, carefully picked up a fragment of a medicine jar, and then put it under his nose and sniffed!

A pungent smell came to my nose!

"There's something wrong with this pot!"

Bai Yanqing immediately shouted!

The medicine jar of ordinary boiling medicine, due to the accumulation of years of boiling medicine, there will be some medicine stains left on the inner wall of the medicine jar! But the stains are generally dark brown, and they will never be, like the inner wall of this jar, which is black!

Moreover, the outer wall of this medicine jar still looks quite new! In other words, this medicine jar should not have been used a few times! How can a medicine jar that has not been used a few times have black medicine stains on its inner wall!

Obviously, this is not normal!

"Where did this jar come from?!"

Bai Yanqing asked sharply.

"Medicine Jar...... It's from the house!"

The little maid didn't know why.

"Where did you get this medicine jar from the house?"

At this time, Chu Aotian, seeing Bai Yanqing's expression, most likely understood what happened! Then he couldn't help but open his mouth and scolded the girl!

"It was given to the slave by Aunt Yan! At that time, the adult was in a hurry to let the slave maid boil the medicine, and the slave maid didn't find the medicine jar for a while, so she asked Aunt Yan to get this medicine jar!"

The little maid replied truthfully!

"Aunt Yan? Who is she? Why haven't I heard of it?!"

Chu Aotian said with a frown. He worked hard to search in his mind for who Aunt Yan was, but no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't think of when the "Aunt Yan" would come from his house!

"Aunt Yan is the one brought back by Madame!"

The "lady" in the maid's mouth is Xin Wanrong!

Since Xin Wanrong was demoted to a civilian and stripped of her title, she did not allow it, and in her own mansion, someone called her "Emperor Ji"! It's just that people outside still politely call her "Emperor Ji", after all, in the final analysis, she still has royal blood, which is inseparable!

"Madame brought it back? What about Aunt Yan? But it's still in the house?"

After Chu Aotian learned the news, his first reaction was that he wanted to arrest that Aunt Yan and come back for questioning!

"She...... She has returned to the Cloud Temple with her wife!"

The little maid replied honestly.

Returning to the Cloud Temple?

Chu Aotian was stunned, and then remembered that Xin Wanrong did leave with a few personal maids and mothers-in-law a few days ago!
