Chapter 489: Burn this medicine
Huang Li looked behind him, and after making sure that there was no one, he knelt directly in front of Wen Qingzhu, grabbed the corner of her skirt and prayed: "Miss Seven, save Mingli!" After careful calculation, he can also be regarded as Miss Seven's cousin! ”
Seeing that Wen Qingzhu was a little confused, Lu Tao explained in a whisper beside him: "Wen Mingli is the son of Aunt Huang Li. ”
"What's going on?" Wen Qingzhu did not agree directly.
But this still made Huang Li see hope, and said while wiping her tears: "It's Miss Six!" ”
"Shut up! Now it's Concubine Wen! Green Tao immediately scolded her, looked outside, and was relieved to make sure that the beauty was here.
Huang Li hurriedly changed his words and explained the next thing in detail.
It's nothing more than that after the Huai Wangfu gained power, the Wan family turned over, and Wen Bogui's weak temperament couldn't protect Huang Li's mother and son.
Within a few days, Wen Mingli's health was getting worse and worse, and now he was maintained by decoction.
I asked a doctor to come and see, but I couldn't find out why.
Today, I learned that Wen Qingzhu was coming, so I found an opportunity to find it.
"I can help you." Wen Qingzhu helped Huang Li up, leaned into her ear, and said a word.
Huang Li was stunned and a little scared: "This, can this really work?" ”
Wen Qingzhu hooked his lips and smiled: "It's okay, do what I say, it'll be fine." ”
Under Wen Qingzhu's repeated assurances, Huang Li left suspiciously.
"Master Hou let's go first, I know everything I should know." Wen Qingzhu turned around and walked straight into the house.
After waiting for about two quarters of an hour, Wen Qinglan finally arrived.
As soon as she sat down, she stared at Wen Qingzhu and didn't move, but she didn't ask anything.
"Why is Concubine Lan looking at me like this? But what did I do wrong? Wen Qingzhu put down the teacup and looked up.
Wen Qinglan still stared at her: "I heard that Concubine Wen went to look for you yesterday?" ”
"Well, she promised me a condition, so I came over." Wen Qingzhu didn't hide anything, but he didn't tell Wen Qinglan about the specific things.
"If you know what you're doing, there's always someone watching you." Wen Qinglan gave her a warning and left.
Soon, Wan personally came over and invited Wen Qingzhu to the front to watch the ceremony.
Wen Qingzhu got up with a smile and followed Wan out.
Walking all the way, I saw the courtyard wall that separated the Wen family, and asked more: "The marriage of the second brother, didn't the fourth aunt come over?" ”
Hearing her mention the fourth room, Wan Shi almost couldn't hold back a smile.
"Eleven is disobedient, chasing Master Huixin every day, and now I don't know how many rumors there are in the capital, she closed her door long ago, saying that she was sick, and I don't know if it was a real illness or a fake illness."
"I see, it seems that when the wedding is over, I should go over and have a look." Wen Qingzhu did not echo Wan's, which made Wan's a little embarrassed.
However, Wen Qingzhu quickly changed the topic and talked about the bride.
After asking like this, I learned that the bride was actually from Shuzhou, a relative of Wen Qingruofu's family, although her background was lower, but she was also a lady from an official family.
"Big sister is back too?" Wen Qingzhu asked with a smile.
Wan Shi said a little proudly: "I'm back, and my son-in-law and little grandson are also back." ”
When he arrived in the front hall, Wen Qingzhu saw a dignified and gentle woman standing in the crowd.
Unlike the women in the capital, she wears more silver ornaments on her head.
Even so, it still seems to be down-to-earth and generous.
Wan went over to help, and Wen Qingzhu sat in a position that did not move forward or backward.
In her memory, Wen Qingruo married the Deng family in Shuzhou when she was six years old.
At that time, the Wan family was still very unhappy, after all, it was for Wen Guanbin to let Wen Qingruo marry in order not to transfer the capital.
But looking at Wan's happy appearance now, Wen Qingruo really married the right person.
For this eldest sister who married far away from Shuzhou, Wen Qingzhu had almost no impression.
I only vaguely remember that when Jiang Yuansheng was demoted to a commoner and Wen Qingfang was given death, Wan and Wen Bogui were implicated and died in prison.
Wen Qingruo seems to have returned to the capital, collected the bodies of the Wan couple and buried them, and then sent Wen Mingyu, who was exiled.
"Sister! You're so good-looking! A little boy with dark eyes suddenly ran up to him and put his hands on his knees.
Wen Qingzhu looked down and found that he looked like Wen Qingruo.
A mother came from behind, grabbed him, and quickly apologized: "Miss Seven, he is the youngest son of the eldest lady." ”
"Young Master Cousin, she is an aunt, not a sister!" The mother hurriedly explained to the little boy.
Wen Qingzhu smiled and said he didn't care.
But at this moment, Wen Qingruo walked over, took the little boy's hand, and said gently and seriously: "Call Aunt!" ”
The little boy seemed to be afraid of her, and bowed his head and said to his aunt.
Wen Qingzhu looked sideways at the green pottery and asked her to give the little boy a purse.
"I don't know if my nephew comes back, a little thing, let's play with it."
"Thank you, Seventh Sister, Bo'er, don't hurry up and thank Auntie." Wen Qingruo looked at the little boy again.
Deng Bo immediately whispered thank you.
After a few words of greeting, Wen Qingruo took Deng Bo away.
After they left, Wen Qingzhu glanced at the skirt on his knees, and there was a faint fragrance left on it.
About half an hour later, Xia Feikite appeared.
As soon as she appeared, the scene became strange.
Many of the guests who came here had attended the wedding of Wen Mingyu and Xia Feiyuan.
But today, Xia Feiyuan came over to attend the wedding on behalf of the Marquis of Jingyuan.
A person with a little eyesight knew what happened in the palace that time, so he took the initiative to compliment her.
There was one and two, and the scene was lively again. Lingdu eBook
The seats arranged by the Marquis of Jingyuan's Mansion were very high, but she walked to Wen Qingzhu's side.
"Miss Wen, don't you mind if I sit here?" Xia Feiyuan still gives Wen Qingzhu a lot of face.
Wen Qingzhu glanced at his knees and said with a smile, "Of course I don't mind." ”
As soon as they sat down, a maid came over and poured tea for the two of them.
The little boy had a problem just now, so he deliberately turned around and touched the maid who was pouring tea.
The teapot in the girl's hand was crooked, and the tea splashed out, which happened to wet the corners of Wen Qingzhu's skirt.
Before the green pottery could speak, Xia Feiyuan scolded angrily: "You cheap, it's not good for a maid to pour a cup of tea!" Someone! Drag her down and hit a twenty board! ”
As soon as the words fell, four guards with knives rushed in from outside.
The guests in the room were taken aback in an instant, and the crowd stepped back one after another, watching the four guards drag the tea girl out.
The maid turned pale with fright, and cried and begged for mercy, but no one dared to come forward.
Even if Wen Bogui greeted the guests opposite, he didn't dare to put a fart, and lowered his head and pretended not to see it.
Until the mournful shouts of the maid sounded outside, and the sound of gasping air instantly sounded in the house.
Listening to the maid's voice getting quieter and quieter, Wen Qingruo and Wan Shi hurriedly ran in and arrived in front of Xia Feiyu.
"Does Lady Wen have anything to say?" Xia Feiyuan was the first to speak with a smile on her face.
Wan's face, which was so angry that his face turned blue, originally had a belly, but when he saw the two strong servants behind Xia Feiyuan, he gritted his teeth and held back.
Wen Qingruo glanced at her mother and probably guessed Xia Feiyu's identity.
She stepped forward with a smile: "Mrs. Shizi, but that maid offended you?" ”
"Poured tea and turned over the teapot and splashed the corners of Miss Wen's skirt, should the eldest lady definitely fight?" Xia Feiyuan looked at her with a smile.
"I'll go and leave first." Wen Qingzhu didn't want to get involved, so he was about to leave after holding Lu Tao's hand.
Wen Qingruo looked at the corner of Wen Qingzhu's skirt, and her eyes suddenly sank.
What did Xia Feikite see? Or did Wen Qingzhu see something?
She thought for a moment and instructed the maid beside her: "Add fifty boards, don't fight here, so as not to stain the eyes of the guests." ”
The maid went down, and the tea-pouring maid who was beaten outside was also dragged away.
Wen Qingruo was decisive, which made Xia Feiyuan feel a hint of crisis.
It seems that the Huai Wangfu can turn over, and this Wen family's eldest lady is making suggestions behind her back.
Leaving the banquet room, a familiar maid came over.
"Miss Seven, come over here."
"It's the people of the orioles." Green Tao recognized her.
Wen Qingzhu hesitated for a moment and followed the maid over.
When they arrived in the courtyard, Huang Li heard the movement and hurriedly walked out.
Seeing that Wen Qingzhu was coming, he stepped forward in surprise: "Miss Seven is here......
Before she finished speaking, Huang Li saw Wen Qingzhu's wet skirt, and immediately understood, and led her into the house.
Looking for a similar skirt, Huang Li said a little embarrassed: "This dress looks similar to Miss Seven's, if you don't dislike it, change to this, it's still brand new." ”
"Thank you, auntie." Wen Qingzhu nodded, went in and changed her skirt.
Not long after he walked out, the maid who led the way just now suddenly scolded outside: "Who is sneaking around!" ”
Wen Qingzhu looked back, the skirt in Lu Tao's hand, and a notice floated in his heart.
"Green pottery, you ...... this dress"
Green Tao's eyes lit up: "Miss is trying to lure the snake out of the hole?" ”
Wen Qingzhu nodded in response, then looked at Huang Li and said, "Later, I will let the green pottery burn this clothes, and there will be cooking smoke rising, don't get me wrong." ”
"I can't get me wrong!" Huang Li nodded immediately.
She looked at the bedroom, a little afraid to speak.
Wen Qingzhu knew what she wanted to say, and walked directly over there: "Go and see Mingli." ”
When he arrived at the house, Wen Qingzhu smelled a strong smell of medicine.
There was a little boy on the other side of the bed who was coughing constantly, and next to him was a grandmother waiting for him.
Wen Qingzhu went over to check Wen Mingli's pulse, but found that his pulse was very strange.
Some ups and downs are not poisoned, let alone Zhonggu.
"When did his health start to deteriorate?"
"When Concubine Wen came back for the first time last year." Huang Li was very distressed, if Wen Qingzhu didn't know what to do, then she would have no hope at all.
Wen Qingzhu felt that something was wrong: "Is there anything else going on?" For example, the eldest lady didn't send anything back? ”
As soon as these words came out, Huang Li nodded violently: "Yes, yes, yes!" I remembered that the eldest lady's health was not very good at that time, and later the eldest lady sent someone to send medicine back, and after that, Wan's health got better and better, and Mingli's health became worse and worse. ”
"Then do you have any medicine or dregs that the eldest lady has drunk here?" Wen Qingzhu felt that it must be me Wen Qingruo who got something back.
Huang Li thought carefully for a long time, and suddenly ran out without saying a word.
After a while, I came back with a handful of things.
"This! It was the medicine that the eldest lady sent over to Mingli to drink, I didn't dare to let him drink it, so I stayed, and I heard that it was the medicine sent back by the eldest lady. ”
Taking the medicine bag in Huang Li's hand, Wen Qingzhu opened it and looked at it, but he didn't feel anything at first.
When she reached out to touch the herb, she suddenly retracted her hand!
"Quick! Go find the torches! Burn this medicine! Burned immediately! Wen Qingzhu's face turned pale instantly, and his hand holding the medicine bag was trembling.
Green Tao hurried out, brought a mother-in-law in, and brought a copper basin and burning charcoal.
Wen Qingzhu threw the medicine bag into it without hesitation.
Although the oil paper is not flammable, it still burns after a while when it encounters a high-temperature charcoal fire.
