Chapter 243: Poisoning in the First Yuan Dynasty
Xiao Jing was a little busy with official duties today, and it was already midnight by the time he got home. As soon as I got off the carriage, I saw Xuan Yue and Yun Xuan waiting at the door.
"What are you two waiting for here?" Fang Wuyan joked, "Is there any happy event?"
Xuan Yue rolled her eyes at him and reported to Xiao Jing: "Sir, Madam seems a little unwell today!"
"What's wrong, madam?" Xiao Jing hurried into the house and asked anxiously.
Yunxuan said hurriedly: "Madam said she was tired and had no energy. She was not as lively as yesterday! I asked a doctor to come and take a look, but she said no, just take a nap, but she has slept all afternoon. Not up yet!”
Xiao Jing hurriedly motioned for Fang Wuyan to follow him to the main courtyard. The yard was quiet at this time, with no children's laughter or Yuan Chuyi's voice. He entered the house and saw Yuan Chuyi asleep on the bed.
He sat on the edge of the bed and touched Yuan Chuyi's forehead. There was no abnormality in temperature, but his face was slightly pale. On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, you opened your eyes and looked at him.
"What's wrong? What's wrong with you?" Xiao Jing took her into his arms and kissed her forehead and asked.
Yuan Chuyi looked at him and smiled, "It's okay, maybe I'm just a little tired because I've been busy these two days!"
Xiao Jing took her clothes and put them on, "Go out and show Wu Yan! Otherwise, I won't worry!"
Yuan Chuyi also knew that he would be worried, so he had to dress neatly, wash up a little, and follow him to the pavilion in the yard to sit down.
Fang Yuanyan looked at Yuan Chuyi's sick look and joked, "Mrs., she's pregnant again!"
Xiao Jing immediately looked overjoyed and looked at Yuan Chuyi, "Really?"
"No way!" Yuan Chuyi said shyly. She just left two days ago, so it's not like he didn't know.
Xiao Jing immediately lost his smile and hurriedly pushed her to sit down, asking Fang Wuyan to quickly check her pulse.
Fang Wuyan put his hand on Yuan Chuyi's wrist, his heart skipped a beat and his expression became solemn. Xiao Jing felt bad when he saw him like this, "How is it?"
"Madam, it seems that she has been poisoned!" Fang Wuyan said bluntly.
"Ah!" Xiao Jing was stunned, Yuan Chuyi was even more stunned, Xuan Yue, Yun Xuan and others were even more shocked.
"How is that possible? Are you sure?" Yuan Chuyi asked. Xiao Jing looked at Fang Wuyan nervously.
Fang Wuyan carefully checked her pulse again, and then nodded firmly, "She must have been hit by Huangquan Youmeng!"
Fang Wuyan said that this kind of poison is the hardest to detect. People who are poisoned will first feel tired, then drowsy, and then sleep for longer and longer periods. Finally, they will have hallucinations, nightmares, until they lose their memory and cannot sleep forever. .
"The poison Madam was poisoned is still shallow, she must have been poisoned not long ago!"
"I was fine yesterday!" Yuan Chuyi said.
"Where did you go today? Who did you meet? What did you eat?" Xiao Jing asked hurriedly.
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he went to the palace early this morning and practiced yoga with the queen for more than half an hour. Then he went to the Qinglian Hall to practice yoga with the students, and then went to the Southeast Street courtyard to meet the tenants. No one else was seen.
"Today in the palace, I drank the same pot of tea as the Queen. In the Southeast Street courtyard, I drank the tea prepared by us. Only in the guild hall, I drank the tea prepared by the maids and the snacks prepared by them!" said Yuan Chuyi! .
With a look from Xiao Jing, Xuan Yue immediately led Leng Shuanghua and others out.
"When can the antidote be prepared?" Xiao Jing asked Fang Wuyan.
"Let's go and develop the antidote as quickly as possible!" Fang Wuyan immediately got up and went out to prepare the antidote.
Xiao Jing waved the others to go out, and he hugged Yuan Chuyi into his arms and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I couldn't take good care of you and made you suffer!"
"How can I blame you! It's my own negligence!" Yuan Chuyi said with a smile, "Don't worry, I will be fine!" She kissed his cheek, "Don't worry! Let them bring the child, I want to accompany the child Have some fun!”
"You are not feeling well yourself. Let the grandma and the others take care of the child first. You should have a good rest first. It won't be too late to accompany them after the poison is gone!" Xiao Jing doesn't want her to move now, so he should just let her stay quietly. .
"I just want to sleep when I have nothing to do, what should I do?" Yuan Chuyi said with a smile.
"Then, let me play chess with you!"
"It's too much trouble, I'd better go to sleep!"
"I've slept all afternoon, but I can't sleep too much!" Xiao Jing led her to get up, "Then let's take a walk in the garden!"
At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, a good girl fell in love with him and walked slowly in the garden with him. Listening to his interesting stories, she didn't even want to sleep for a while.
Xuan Yue and others came to the guild hall and immediately arrested all five of the maids before they knew what was going on. The maids were in panic.
Xuan Yue looked at the maids and frowned, "Isn't it still the same today? Where are the people?" He asked coldly.
"Sir, you are talking about Xiaoling, she is just here to help today!"
"Who asked her to come to help?" Xuan Yue shouted again, looking at the maid Lu He, "Did you invite her?"
Lu He hurriedly knelt down, "Madam said that if there are too many people coming, we can invite one more person to come back to help temporarily. There are quite a lot of people today, and Xiaoling happened to say that she can come to help, so I asked her to come!"
"Where is she?"
"Her family lives in the same alley as mine!"
"If you can't find her today, you will be dead!" Leng Shuanghua said coldly.
Lu He did not dare to neglect and immediately led a group of them to Xiao Ling's house. But when they arrived at Xiao Ling's house, they saw Xiao Ling and her mother lying dead in a pool of blood.
When Leng Shuanghua touched the body, it was still warm and he had just died. The group immediately chased him out of the house, but there was no one around and the murderer had already fled. They returned to Xiaoling's house and searched, and sure enough they found a small porcelain bottle with half a bottle of medicinal powder inside.
The group had no choice but to take Lu He back to the palace and hand it over to Lou Xingyun for questioning. When Xiao Jing learned that Xiaoling was dead, he immediately arrested the two personal maids who had served Yuan Chuyi.
The two maids were trembling.
"Your Majesty, the matter of the Princess has nothing to do with us. Please be aware of it, Your Majesty!"
"I'll give you a chance to confess. If you don't tell me, you'll have no choice but to be sentenced to death!" Xiao Jing said coldly.
"Your Majesty, this servant really doesn't know anything. Please tell me, Your Majesty!" Xuemei, the slave girl, kowtowed.
"That day, my wife and I went to Villa for vacation. Who came into the house to see if I had left a note?"
"Yes, it's a slave!" Xuemei said tremblingly.
"Has anyone else been in the house before you?"
Xuemei shook her head.
Xiao Jing looked at the other maid, "Have you ever entered the house that day!"
"Your Majesty Mingjian, the maid did not see the house that day!" The little girl was so frightened that she did not dare to breathe.
Xiao Jing sneered and looked at Xuemei again, "I'll give you another chance. I hope you can truthfully tell who your master is!"
"Slave, I don't know what the prince is talking about!" Xuemei replied with a trembling body.
"I gave you the opportunity, but if you don't cherish it, then you will be punished!"
Following Xiao Jing's order, Xuemei was immediately taken down. Leng Shuanghua swung the whip in his hand and then hit her. Xuemei's screams suddenly sounded.
