Chapter 252: Poisoned Tea (Five Watches)
After it was done, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and stuffed the medicine bag into his sleeve.
Then he stared coldly at the teapot.
"Fourth Miss?"
Hearing such a sudden sound, Shen Shu trembled in fright.
She turned back, and it was a servant girl in the house.
The maidservant continued: "Fourth Miss, it can be regarded as looking for you, the Li family is here, and the old lady is sending someone to look for you." ”
Shen Shu took a deep breath and calmed down: "I'll go now." ”
Then she pointed to the teapot: "Is this for my grandmother?" ”
The maid nodded: "Yes, the slave maid is here to get the teapot." ”
"You stay here, I'll take it."
"Yes."
Shen Shu's hands holding the tray were shaking, and when she passed by the fish pond, she threw the medicine paper in her sleeve into it, and she didn't leave until she sank into the pond.
Fumando.
Mrs. Li brought her son Li Yu to be invited, she didn't have any special requirements for her daughter-in-law, as long as she was filial and virtuous.
And the Guogong Mansion is a pro. Even if they marry a concubine, they are also climbing.
Li Yu looks very delicate, he is the kind of little brother next door, the scholarly scroll has a strong atmosphere, and he puts his hands on his knees at the moment, looking very restrained.
Zhao Huiwei had been here for a long time, but she didn't find any poisonous tea, and Shen Shu walked in outside, her eyebrows and eyes were quiet, which immediately attracted Li Yu's attention.
Shen Shu held the teapot in her hand and bowed respectfully: "Grandmother." ”
She saluted Mrs. Li again: "Mrs. Li, Mr. Li is good." ”
Mrs. Li looked at her happily, this should be the fourth lady of the Shen Mansion, right?
She is well-behaved, and her temperament looks quiet, and Mrs. Li was already satisfied with her at the first time, and Li Yu's face was flushed, which was better than any girl he had seen before.
Shen Shu walked forward, she looked at Zhao Huiwei, why is she here?
She didn't have time to think too much, so she put the teapot next to Mrs. Shen's table, then retreated and sat opposite the Li family.
Shen Lao Taijun held a string of Buddhist beads in her hand, glanced at Shen Shu, and then looked at Li Yu, who was also shy, and was very satisfied.
She introduced to Mrs. Li: "This is the fourth son of my family, named Shen Shu." ”
Mrs. Li nodded again and again, and smiled: "She is worthy of being a girl raised by the Shen Guogong Mansion, her words and deeds are pleasing to the eye, gentle and virtuous." ”
This is an exaggeration, but who doesn't like to hear good words? Mrs. Shen smiled: "She is not as good as you say, my four girls are very real, and they were quiet for a while." ”
Mrs. Li smiled: "The girl's family is lively and cute. ”
Shen Shu lowered her head and didn't speak, but she still felt disgusted, whether it was Mrs. Li's compliment or that Li Gongzi's scrutiny, it made her nauseous.
As for Li Yu, she fell in love with this girl from the first sight, and it turned out that the love at first sight mentioned in the book was true.
Mrs. Shen was thirsty when she chatted with Mrs. Li, so she poured a cup of tea.
The fragrance of tea overflowed, and Yingluo's face changed when she heard it: "Girl, this tea is not right." ”
The teacup had been delivered to Shen Lao Taijun's mouth, Zhao Huiwei reached out and knocked the cup off, the cup fell to the ground and made a crisp sound, and the tea made a "snort" sound on the ground.
"Old lady, this tea can't be drunk, it's poisonous."
Shen Shu's face on one side turned pale.
Even Old Taijun Shen looked at the tea on the ground in disbelief.
She looked at Shen Shu and said calmly: "Chaohua, take my token and invite Imperial Doctor He!" ”
Chaohua looked serious: "Yes!" ”
Mrs. Li was also afraid, she looked at the tea in her hand, a little glad that she didn't drink it, and then looked at her son to see that he was so relieved.
She really didn't expect that the Guogong Mansion would be so terrible, and there would be such a thing as poisoning at a banquet.
And after Zhao Huiwei was sure that Mrs. Shen was saved, she was relieved, and her tense body relaxed.
Old Taijun Shen's eyes sank slightly: "Sister Shu! What's going on? ”
Shen Shu's little face turned pale with fright, trembling all over, and she shook her head with tears: "I don't know, grandmother......"
"I just went to the tea room and wanted to bring you the tea in person, I know I used to be very excessive, I just want you to have a better impression of me, I don't know why the tea is poisonous, I really don't know."
She cried so much that she looked at everyone pleadingly: "It's not me, it's really not me, you believe me, it's really not me." ”
Mrs. Li's face stiffened slightly, and she stood up: "Since your mansion still has important matters to deal with, I will retire first with my dog." ”
Mrs. Shen closed her eyes slightly: "Dewdrops, send Mrs. Li, and Gongzi Li out of the house." ”
The maidservant named Dew at the door answered, and she stretched out her hand: "Mrs. Li, Mr. Li, please." ”
Mrs. Li was in a hurry, but Li Yu turned her head and glanced at Shen Shu, but met her pleading eyes.
As if seeking refuge.
"Yu'er, let's go." Mrs. Li saw that her son was still looking at that Shen Shu, and hurriedly pulled him away, there are too many bad things in this Shen Mansion, and she doesn't want this family business.
And who knows whether Shen Shu was involved in the poisoning or not, Mrs. Li also came out of the house fight, and she thought more than her son.
As for Li Yu, he was entangled in his heart, but thinking of the tearful eyes just now, he suddenly firmly believed in her.
Such a beautiful and lovely girl, she must not have made it.
Only Shen Shu's crying remained in the Fumantang.
Qi Shi rushed to hear the news, looking at the scene in front of her a little disappointed, she thought that Shen Shu had become, so she was called here urgently, as a result, Shen Lao Taijun sat well, and there were broken teacups and porcelain on the ground, which were revealed at a glance.
It's really not enough to succeed and more to lose.
Qi had a secret hatred in his heart, and his face was anxious: "Mother-in-law, what's wrong?" You okay? ”
Mrs. Shen ignored her, and Qi shut up when she was bored.
Imperial Physician He soon came, along with Shen Guogong and Shen Mingnan.
Shen Mingnan first looked at Zhao Huiwei, and was relieved to see that she was doing well.
Mrs. He put the silver needle into the teapot, but in a few seconds, the silver needle was pitch black, and it was obvious that the poison was violent.
He picked it up again and sniffed it, and finally put down the teapot with a frown: "This tea is in it, and if you drink it, you will definitely die." ”
"This medicine is rare, and ordinary people can't buy it."
Therefore, this sentence of Imperial Physician He excludes ordinary people, so since it is rare, only the powerful can buy it.
Shen Guogong set his eyes on Shen Shu's body, and Shen Shu trembled: "Father, it's not me who wants to assassinate my grandmother, it's really not me." ”
He frowned and looked at his daughter, it was not something that her little girl could get, but this did not make him feel at ease, after all, it was his mother who was going to poison the person in the back.
He had a cold face: "Come on, lock the fourth lady in the house, and you can't release it until the truth is clarified." ”
