Chapter 14: Poisoning!
After Qu Ming read the letter, he solemnly returned the letter to Situ Lin, "Miss Zhong is really extraordinary, Qu Ming admires it! ”
"Qu Ming! Prepare well, there must be a fierce battle tonight. Situ Lin was silent for a long time before he spoke, "This matter is not allowed to be disclosed to my mother." ”
"The prince commanded, Qu Ming will not disobey. Qu Ming vouched, "Shizi, although Miss Zhong is not familiar with Shizi, and it can even be said that she only has a few faces, Qu Ming feels that Miss Zhong knows you very well, and you are also very attentive to Miss Zhong. ”
Situ Lin retracted all his expressions and coughed dryly, "Ahem, you know the most." There's still a lot to do today, aren't you idle? If yes, I wouldn't mind finding more things to keep you busy. ”
"Qu Ming retires!" Qu Ming saw Situ Lin say this, and ran away like the wind.
In the Xinxue Courtyard of Zhongfu, the doctor's face was gloomy, "General Zhong, Miss Yan's situation is not optimistic, the old man only punctured the acupoint with a silver needle, and found that Miss Yan was deeply poisoned." ”
"Poisoning! How is that possible? Doctor, you can be sure. Zhong Zihong heard that the poisoning was quite deep, and grabbed the doctor's hand violently, and his panic was undisguised.
The doctor was caught by him, and endured the pain and said, "General, please let go, the old man's old bones can't withstand the general's hand." Please listen to the old man. ”
Zhong Zihong, who realized that he was out of shape, let go of the doctor, "General Ben has lost his temper, and I ask the doctor to tell me in detail about my son." ”
"General, it has not been a day or two since the poison was poisoned, and it has been poisoned for five years, and this poison is slow, it cannot be detected for a while, and it will be poisoned several times during the period, and the poison will not hurt his life when the poison occurs, and it will only make the poisoned person behave differently than usual...... When the poison occurs, he first faints and falls asleep frequently, and then suddenly has a strange illness, and he will die violently within half a month. I really don't know who Miss Yan offended and was so poisoned. The doctor explained the situation in detail, and at the end he complained angrily about the hatred of the poisoner.
The more Zhong Zihong listened, the more frightened he became, such a strange poison is really rare, even in the palace, it is difficult to find such a medicine, and the situation that the doctor said is very similar to what Zhong Li said the night before before and after Tianxue passed away. I couldn't help but wonder in my heart, "Doctor, what will happen if it is fierce under this poison?"
"General, this ......" The doctor looked at Zhong Zihong suspiciously, was slightly stunned, and sighed heavily, "If the medicine is too violent, the poisoned person will be seriously ill within a month, and the symptoms are like wind cold, but once the medicine for wind and cold is taken, ordinary people will die in three days, and if they have some foundation, they will not be able to do it in seven days." ”
"Thank you, doctor. Zhong Zihong's heart ached, "Doctor, can my son still be saved?"
"General, the old man practices medicine to save people, he naturally has a benevolent heart, although the young lady is deeply poisoned, the old man is still sure to save Miss Yan, please rest assured. The doctor got up and saluted, and replied sincerely, "At that time, the old man has already performed an acupuncture for Miss Yan to detoxify, and then equipped with internal medicine, this poison can be suppressed for three months without occurring, during this period, the old man must do his best to find an antidote, detoxify Miss Yan." ”
Zhong Zihong was slightly relieved to get the reassuring pill given by the doctor, and invited the doctor to the main hall to give the consultation money and the good ink in the treasury, "Thank you, doctor." Ben will know that the doctor hangs the pot to help the world, and he doesn't like gold and jade things, so he asked the doctor to accept it. ”
The doctor accepted the consultation fee and ink, got up and saluted, "Thank you, general, the old man will retire first, if Miss Yan is sick, please release this ignition to the sky, the old man will definitely come." As soon as the words fell, he put a bamboo pipe on the desk and retreated, leaving the Zhong Mansion.
Zhong Zihong hurriedly returned to Xinxue Courtyard, and when he saw that Zhong Li had woken up, he immediately stepped forward and asked, "Li'er, do you feel any discomfort?"
Zhong Li shook his head, didn't say anything, looked at Zhong Zihong in a daze, and laughed out loud for a long time, "Mother, you said that if your father saw this flower, would she be very happy? Li'er hasn't seen her father for a long time, Li'er misses him so much! Or let's go to Yunlu Palace to pick up my brother back!"
"Miss, don't scare the slave maid! Miss, what's wrong with you?" Seeing this, the cuckoo fell to his knees, tears kept pouring out, sobbing and calling Zhong Li, "Miss, you can't do this anymore...... , Miss ......"
"Look at me, I'm your father!" ......Zhong Zihong stepped forward and shook Zhong Li, trying to wake her up.
But Zhong Li broke away from Zhong Zihong's hand and ran around the house in horror, "Don't come here, mother, where are you, cuckoo?"
The cuckoo kept following behind, and finally hugged Zhong Li, and before he could speak, Zhong Li exclaimed, "Aunt Lin, let go of me, let go...... I don't know anything!"
"Miss, the slave is a cuckoo, look good, the slave didn't lie to you, Miss. The cuckoo cried out with tears in her eyes, which calmed Zhong Li.
When feeding the medicine, it was another toss, either smashing the bowl or spitting out all the medicine. In this way, Zhong Li tossed and turned for half an hour before he quieted down, and he sat quietly on the Luohan bed by the window and played with his fingers.
Zhong Zihong had been tossed on his back, and Du Juan persuaded Zhong Zihong for a long time to let Zhong Zihong leave Xinxue Courtyard, and Zhong Li's situation Fuyuan also got the news.
The cuckoo sat down on the stool and looked at Zhong Li with palpitations, "Miss, do you think the Fuyuan will do it?"
"Let's have a good rest, tonight won't be so easy. Zhong Li said and lay down on his back to the sky, so that the cuckoo could also go down and have a good rest.
After nightfall, Zhong Zihong didn't go to see Zhong Li again because of something, and stayed in the study to deal with official business, so he had no time to take a break, so he asked the old housekeeper to send preserved fruit to eat, so as not to cry again when she drank the medicine.
The moon is bright and the stars are thin, the thin clouds are like veils, and in the quiet night, Xinxue Courtyard is shrouded in a solemn atmosphere, Zhong Li took the cuckoo to frolic everywhere in the courtyard, and naturally went to the Moon Worship Garden, and at the same time led the people lurking in the shadows.
"Cuckoo, this preserved fruit is very delicious, let's prepare more. ”
"Yes. Miss, this is the old man specially asked the old housekeeper to send it to you, saying that you refuse to take medicine, this can coax you. The cuckoo laughed, took out the preserved fruit and handed it to Zhong Li.
Zhong Li muttered in a low voice, "It seems that this time there was a lot of trouble, and I guess he frightened him, and he actually used these things to coax children." ”
"Isn't Miss Zhong a child? I think you're quite childish. Situ Lin walked out of the shadow of the cloister and looked at Zhong Li with a chuckle.
