Chapter 203: Poisoning
Liu Jingxuan's eyebrows trembled slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Poisoned?
The old gentleman bowed again: "Trouble the lord to let the clothes of Nangong head catcher be removed, so that the villain can carefully inspect it." ”
Xiao Rang on the side hurriedly called two officials to remove Nangong Huangyun's coat, middle coat, and underwear, leaving only a pair of pants. The old gentleman began to carefully examine Nangong Xuanyun's body.
After a long time, the old man turned to Liu Jingxuan and said, "My lord, please look!"
Liu Jingxuan took a closer look, and only then did he find that Nangong Huangyun's right arm was red and swollen and tall, and his armpit was black, with a slight fishy smell. Liu Jingxuan frowned: "Sir, what kind of poison is in him?"
The old gentleman took out a pair of tweezers from the medicine box, and then pulled out a thin steel needle from under Nangong Xuanyun's armpit. The steel needle was blackened throughout, with a hint of green light.
The old man carefully examined the steel needle, and finally shook his head and said, "Forgive the old man for his clumsiness, I really can't see what kind of poison is in Nangong's head catcher. ”
Liu Jingxuan's brows furrowed deeper, and Xiao Rang's face was blue at this time, and his expression was even more unnatural. Just now, he also said that the injuries in Nangong Xuanyun were not serious. But now, it seems that the injury may not be serious, but the poison seems to be very deep.
Liu Jingxuan asked in a deep voice, "Is there a way to heal?"
The old gentleman frowned: "The villain doesn't know if he can cure Nangong's headcatcher, but the villain is willing to try his best." ”
Liu Jingxuan nodded: "Then please Mr. do it as soon as possible." ”
The old man took out a sharp knife from the medicine box and cut open the black flesh under Nangong Xuanyun's armpit, and suddenly a stream of black blood flowed down. A servant hurriedly caught it with a copper basin. The old man used a sharp knife to cut off the black flesh little by little. After a while, the black blood slowly turned red, and then became vivid. The old man took a porcelain bottle, uncorked it, and sprinkled the white powder in the bottle on the wound. Then he took a porcelain vase. The mouth of this porcelain vase was very large, and when the old man opened it, a black ointment appeared inside. The old man applied the ointment to the wound. When the white powder is mixed with red blood and black ointment, it turns into a lilac gel. The blood no longer flowed down. The old man took a roll of white cotton cloth and wrapped Nangong Xuanyun's armpit wound and his entire right arm. At this time, the complexion on Nangong Xuanyun's face was much better. The officials put on Nangong Xuanyun's middle coat again, covered the quilt, and then exited the door.
The old man breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The villain has a few pairs of decoction for Nangong to drink with his head." If Nangong Catcher is no longer poisonous tonight, then this poison will be cured. If you poison again, the old decay is helpless. ”
Liu Jingxuan arched his hand at the old man: "Thank you, sir." I haven't asked for advice yet, but my husband has a high name. ”
The old man smiled slightly: "The shopkeeper of the villain's Wang Ji Pharmacy in the south of the city, Wang Xingyi." ”
Liu Jingxuan muttered to himself: "Wang Xingyi, Wang Xingyi." The official wrote it down, thank you to the king's treasurer. After speaking, he turned his head to Xiao Rang and said, "Mr. Xiao, please go to the account room and pay twenty taels of silver to the shopkeeper Wang, and by the way, send someone to escort the shopkeeper Wang home." ”
Xiao Rang nodded, sent Wang Xingyi out of the prefect's yamen, and then sent the official who had invited someone to escort the Wang shopkeeper home.
In the middle of the night, Nangong Xuanyun suddenly began to have a high fever, his right arm became red and swollen again, and he kept muttering in his mouth.
A servant who was guarding Nangong Xuanyun hurriedly ran to Liu Jingxuan's door. At this time, Liu Jingxuan had just laid down and had not yet slept. Suddenly, I heard the voice of the official outside the door: "My lord, have you rested?"
When Liu Jingxuan heard it, it was like Chen Liang's voice, so he asked softly, "Is it Chen Liang?"
The official outside the door hurriedly replied: "It is a humble position." ”
Liu Jingxuan suddenly asked, "Come to my door so late, is there something wrong with Nangong Catcher?"
Chen Liang said anxiously: "Lord Qiyu." Nangong Zhutou is now suffering from a high fever, and the poisonous gas in his right arm has recurred. Please come and have a look. ”
Liu Jingxuan hurriedly put on his clothes and got up, and before he had time to get on his shoes, he opened the door and went straight to Nangong Xuanyun's bedroom. Xiao Rang and Nangong Huangyun lived in the East Cross Courtyard, so they waited in the bedroom early.
Liu Jingxuan saw Xiao Rang and asked urgently, "How is it?"
Xiao Rang tightened his eyebrows and shook his head.
Liu Jingxuan came to Nangong Xuanyun's bed, only to see that Nangong Xuanyun was similar to the situation during the day, his teeth were clenched, and his face was scorched. Beads of sweat on his forehead. Liu Jingxuan turned his head to Xiao Rang and said, "Have you invited a doctor?"
Xiao Rang took two steps forward and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid it's powerless to ask other doctors now." Now only the medical immortal Tan Xingji can come back to life. ”
Liu Jingxuan raised his eyebrows: "Oh, Mr. Tan can cure this poison?"
Xiao Rang bowed down and said, "Your Excellency, don't you forget. At that time, Nangong Huangyun was killed in Gaoyou, seriously injured and poisoned, and it was cured by the medical immortal Tan Xingji at that time. The poison in Nangong's head catcher today is very similar to that of the past, and I am afraid that only the medical immortal can get rid of the disease. ”
Liu Jingxuan asked, "Then where is Mr. Tan?"
Xiao Rang frowned and said, "At the beginning, Mr. Tan had been in the Tan Family Pharmacy in Yangzhou Mansion. Later, he was invited to Yipin Villa. I don't know if I'm back now?"
Liu Jingxuan said without thinking: "Hurry up and please." If you're not home, ask around where the hell is. ”
Xiao Rang was ordered to turn around and leave.
"Wait. Liu Jingxuan seemed to think of something: "I heard that Tan Xingji and Chu Jinglian have a good relationship, so I quickly sent someone to Yuhuangtai to investigate, take the flying sign of this mansion, and the Chu Mansion outside the city will also run quickly." ”
"Yes!" Xiao Rang hurriedly walked out of the house.
Liu Jingxuan looked at Nangong Huangyun's appearance, and his heart was full of anxiety. He ran to the yamen to take a look for a while, and then ran to Nangong Xuanyun's bedroom to take a look. Chen Liang, Wang Yan and other officials were all busy and at a loss.
Zhuge Qinglin, who was in the west across the courtyard, heard the sound of chaos in the courtyard, so he got up and got dressed, put on a cloak, pushed open the door, and came to the courtyard. From the west courtyard, you can see that the east courtyard is brightly lit and noisy. Zhuge Qinglin walked to the East Cross Courtyard, and just happened to collide with Liu Jingxuan head-on. Zhuge Qinglin saw that Liu Jingxuan's underwear was thin, he only wore a coat on his body, his bare feet were not wearing shoes, and a pair of white cotton socks were already covered with mud and dust. His face was anxious and his expression was hurried.
Zhuge Qinglin fluttered and blessed: "The folk girl meets the adult." ”
Liu Jingxuan looked up and found that it was Zhuge Qinglin. Liu Jingxuan forced a smile: "Zhuge girl, it's so late, and you haven't rested yet!"
Zhuge Qinglin said lightly: "My lord, didn't you rest either?What happened tonight, so busy?My lord, what are you doing here?"
