Chapter 14: The Antidote
"Mu Yao, what are these?"
As soon as Li Laosan came back, he handed over the things in his hand to Li Muyao.
Li Muyao took a look, not only Li Laosan had something in his hands, but also Erya and Hui Niang in his hands. It's all a big package, open it and look at it, things are much the same, it's some bottles and cans, a few pieces of jade and a few books.
I read the book first, it is the text of this world, and the books are written with prescriptions and poison prescriptions, and there are numbers in them.
I picked up a few smaller bottles, all numbered on them, which corresponded to the book. I opened a cork casually, smelled it gently, and the medicine in it was indeed a pill made from the recipe in the book!
Erya picked up a book, opened it, pointed to a picture inside, and said, "The characteristics of the person painted on it after poisoning are very similar to Miss Four." Could it be the poison in the fourth miss?"
Li Muyao took a closer look, then analyzed the medicinal properties inside, and then asked a few questions about the performance and small details after poisoning. After the second girl's answers one by one and the answers in her heart corroborated each other, she nodded.
"It should be a poison!"
Erya's eyes became even more fierce: "Evidence, this is the evidence! The poison in the fourth miss is so weird, how many doctors have never even heard of it, but the fifth miss has poison! ”
Li Laosan raised his eyebrows: "What can you do if you have evidence? Can you take out these things? What can you explain when you take them out? How do you prove that these are Miss Five's, even if you can prove that these are Miss Five's, then how can you explain how these got into your hands?"
How can you make the General's Mansion believe your words, and even if people believe you, what can they do, whether they can hurt or abolish Fifth Miss for you? What will you do then? Let them catch it again and beat them to death again?"
Hui Niang nodded, she also thought that Li Laosan was right, these things were in their hands, and they couldn't prove the relationship between the things and the fifth lady. Besides, people must be a family after all, you are the proof, what can you do? People will not face you, you have proved it, and you will only die faster!
Li Muyao nodded, "That's right! This thing can't move the fifth miss, it's useless for us to know the truth, just like the fourth miss, she also knows the truth, so what, I'm afraid that many people in the house know it, will the old lady not know?"
But no one will deal with the fifth miss because of this, because they need to enter the palace alone, and their family wants a mother! The fourth miss is no longer good, then the fifth miss must not have an accident! It's as simple as that!"
Erya was deflated for a moment, and her face was loveless: "Then we can't do anything about her? Or let's stay away? Don't meet anyone from the General's Mansion again, as for which young lady enters the palace, it doesn't matter to us?"
Li Muyao smiled and shook his head, "These poisons are useless to us, but it doesn't mean that others are useless to us!" Then she pointed to another small bottle and said, "This is the antidote to this poison! With this, we can do more!"
Li Muyao shook the vial, there were a lot of detoxification pills in it, maybe the fifth lady was also afraid that she would accidentally get contaminated with a star and a half when she was poisoned, so make more detoxification pills and be ready for herself at all times, in case you need to take it at any time!
Hui Niang frowned and asked, "Mu Yao, what do you want to do?"
Li Muyao looked innocent: "We are good people, since we know about this and get the antidote, how can we not help the fourth lady?"
She looked around and saw that everyone didn't understand what she meant, especially when Erya heard that she wanted to help Miss Four, her face turned red. But he didn't say anything about Li Muyao, he just looked at her aggrievedly.
Li Muyao smiled: "You say, if the fourth young lady has to take the medicine and she is in good health, then whose position will this lady be?"
Er Ya knows the situation in the house best, and the first one said: "The will from above has not come down yet, if the fourth lady is really fine, then the old lady may still let the fourth miss into the palace, there must be such a thing, everyone knows that the fifth miss is a vicious person, the old lady is not afraid of sending the fifth miss into the palace, it will bring some uncontrollable factors to the family?"
Hui Niang shook her head, and said in a confident tone: "Not necessarily! Maybe the old lady will think that the fourth miss is too incompetent, and she can easily fall into the way of the fifth miss." Even if you enter the palace, you can't get out. On the contrary, it is the fifth young lady, who has scheming and means, if she can enter the palace, then she may be able to go to the highest position in the future! Wouldn't that be more beneficial to the family?"
Li Laosan looked at Erya and then at Hui Niang, nodded on the left, and nodded on the right, in his opinion, what the two of them said was right, the selfishness of these inner houses, he couldn't figure it out, but since Li Muyao said so, he must have figured out what to do, and he didn't care what was right or wrong, he just looked at Li Muyao.
Li Muyao: "What you both said is right, this will also be the idea of the two young ladies, no matter which old lady wants to let into the palace, the other will definitely not do it, so what will happen to the two?"
The three of them looked at each other, and the second one arrived first: "Pinching each other? But both of them have been pinching each other for so many years, and they haven't done anything?"
"All these years have been peaceful, it doesn't mean that it will be the same in the future, don't forget, the current fifth miss is not the previous fifth miss, without this space, without these poisons and antidotes, how many means will she have, and after these aftermath, will the fourth miss be so naïve? Let's find a way to add fuel to the fire, and I'm afraid that the two will solve together?"
Hui Niang has always been obedient to Li Muyao, since Li Muyao said so, she naturally believed it, and was the first to nod in support of her.
Li Muyao said again: "Of course, we didn't give her the antidote for nothing, if she didn't take out eight thousand taels of silver, she didn't want to get a little antidote!"
Erya suddenly came to her senses, and quickly nodded: "This is good, this is good!"
Li Laosan also said: "I have to let their family give some silver, our second girl is so easy to hurt? 18,000 taels of silver, too little!"
Hui Niang also said: "For a general's mansion, such a little silver is really nothing, why not more?"
The corners of Li Muyao's mouth twitched slightly, who are they? I heard that they can ask for silver, and they are all so active, what new and old hatreds have been forgotten?
"We can't ask for too much, we can only let the fourth lady pay for it, and we can't let the entire general's mansion know. If everyone knew that Miss Fourth had to take an antidote, I was afraid that there would be any more accidents. One is that Miss Fifth will be wary of Miss Four, and it will be much more difficult for Miss Four to attack her in the future. Second, I'm afraid that Miss Fifth will find us through the channel of the antidote!"
