Second Master Xue of the Red Chamber has space

Chapter 56

"Mother, you are back, how is the eldest lady? Have you seen Lian's second brother?"

After coming out of the eldest lady's room, Xue Wang's face became frighteningly pale. She didn't answer Xue Hong's question, but Baochai replied: "I have been by my mother's side all the time, saying that the eldest lady's condition has stabilized for the time being. Knowing what the symptoms are, the imperial physicians still have to discuss the prescription. The second elder brother Lian heard it, so he wouldn't be too depressed. It's just that my mother has been feeling a little uncomfortable since just now, is she sick?"

"Mother?" Xue Hong noticed something strange about Xue Wang and was shocked. Why is she like this?
Seeing that Mrs. Xue was ignoring everyone, they seemed to be possessed by evil spirits, and everyone dared not delay. Xue Hong ordered people to find Xue Yi and Xue Pan, and the family hurried back to the mansion.

Back at Xue Mansion, Mother Liu found Ten Fragrance Soul Rejuvenating Pills for Wang Xue to use. She also gave her a cup of Lotus Heart Kuding Tea to relieve internal heat. Her whole body was bruised and rubbed. It was not easy for Wang Xue to let her go. Shi came to his senses.

"Master..." Mrs. Xue looked around for a week, a little puzzled. She was clearly attending a banquet in Jia's house just now, why did she go back to her bedroom?

Seeing a large family surrounding her, with tears in their eyes, she couldn't bear it, but she didn't know why, so she had to turn to her husband, Xue Yi.

Xue Yi let out a long breath, and said angrily, "Hey! Ma'am, you were so anxious just now, your phlegm was so overwhelming that you didn't even recognize anyone. Our family has been in such a hurry to wake you up now!"

"me?"

Xue Pan was so frightened that he stomped his feet and said, "That's right! What is it for? But when I went to the eldest wife's room to visit the doctor, I bumped into it? Mother, you can't be like the time when Baochai was sick. My son can't stand it anymore. It's the second time!"

Xue Wangshi gradually stabilized her mind, suddenly remembered the reason for her urgency, her face turned pale again, and said: "I'm fine now, I'm awake. You all go out, I have a few words to say to Hong'er."

Everyone confirmed again and again, seeing that everything in Xue Wang's family was really the same, they left, leaving only Xue Hong to accompany her mother.

Xue Hong couldn't help but blame: "What's wrong with mother? It's so scary, how can we as children feel at ease?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Xue Wang shed tears and hugged Xue Hong: "Hong'er, Hong'er, why is my mother so angry? She's obviously scared!"

"Scared? Why?"

"Hong'er, my good son. You have always been sensible and smart. Do you know why mother left you alone? It is because there is a difficult matter, and mother really doesn't know what to do, so she wants to discuss it with you. Do you know?" I want to give my mother an idea."

Xue Hong faintly felt wrong when she heard this. Although Xue Wang is not a smart person, but she is a woman in the back house, what big things can happen to her?

On weekdays, she just does some tedious and laborious things like housework, or she is worried about how to give gifts, how to return gifts, how to entertain, how to go to banquets, etc., and the most important thing is the conflicts and interests between the officials' wives. , But these matters, Xue Wang usually discusses with Baochai, when will he be useful?
Intuition told Xue Hong that it was related to the Jia family, and it was related to the mindless illness of the eldest wife Zhang Lingxuan.How about nothing happened before going to the banquet, even when talking to yourself before entering Zhang Lingxuan's yard, it was fine?

"Mother, I am your son, what can't I say?"

Xue Hong called "Mother" following Xue Wang's name, which made Xue Wang's heart a lot. She really had no other way, so she told her son little by little what was on her mind.

"Just now, I visited the eldest wife in that mansion. My mother doesn't understand medicine, but when I saw the blue-purple nails of the eldest wife, I knew that her illness was not a sudden illness at all, but poisoning!"

"What? Poisoned?"

"That's right, the knowledge that poison is your mother is called 'Thousand Days Drunk'. It is a forbidden drug. Your aunt asked me to punish Aunt Zhao when she said that she wanted to punish Aunt Zhao. But now Aunt Zhao is fine. It's the eldest lady."

Drunk for a thousand days! ! !
The good thing is that Xue Hong knew about what Xue Wang said, because he was eavesdropping at the door that day, how Mrs. Wang begged so hard, how Xue Wang loved her sister, he didn't say a word. I heard it through leakage.

But this medicine is not for the aunt, but for the sister-in-law?When Mrs. Wang asked for medicine, it was Jia Mu's birthday. It was in August, and now it's only November. In just three months, the eldest wife suddenly fell ill?Doesn’t it mean that Qianrizui will take more than half a year to take effect?Is there any misunderstanding here?
But looking at Xue Wang's determined look, it doesn't look like he made a mistake. What's going on?

Xue Hong brought a cup of tea to Mrs. Xue, and said comfortingly: "Mother, don't worry, talk slowly. You said that my aunt begged you for the 'Thousand Days' Drunk', but what kind of poison is 'Thousand Days' Drunk'? What are the symptoms of a poisoned person? Don’t tell me that my mother made a mistake and wronged my aunt, right?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Xue only said that her son was kind-hearted, and she didn't want to believe that her own aunt was such a person. Instead, she felt a little distressed, and blamed herself for being useless. Why did she drag such a young child into such a thing? Come.

She sighed, but didn't touch the tea: "What could be wrong? 'Thousand Day Drunk' is a banned drug. Now it's available in the palace, and I'm afraid it's in our family who was in charge of purchasing the drug back then. Naturally, I know the efficacy of that medicine.

This is a slow poison, as long as one or two drops of the medicine are added to the diet every day, within half a year, the poisoned person will die silently, and the disease cannot be diagnosed at all.

However, if the person who administered the drug got impatient and used too much dose, the fingernails of the poisoned person would appear blue-purple, and there would be a faint red spot on the center of the person.

Now I have seen the big lady's nails and the middle of the body, there is no doubt about it!If it wasn't for your aunt, who else has this 'Thousand Days Drunk'?
She...she is so cruel! "

what? !

Xue Hong was terrified, this Mrs. Wang is going to die!

Mrs. Xue Wang then said: "The Xue family got this forbidden drug from somewhere. Because of its special effect, the Holy One approved it as a forbidden drug. No one among the people dared to use it. Only the Xue family once kept it. Next, and this is all on the record!"

Xue Wang only said that she used this medicine to harm Aunt Zhao, and it was nothing more than an ordinary aunt who died, even if symptoms appeared after taking too much medicine, no one would pursue it to the end, so she didn't say much.

But now it is Zhang Lingxuan who has been recruited. If something happens to her, how can the Zhang family let it go?The medicine came from the palace. If the Zhang family finds someone who is familiar with the medicine, the Xue family, the only one among the people who has the medicine...

Xue Hong secretly swears in his heart for several minutes, using all the curse words he knows in his past and present lives on Mrs. Wang and still feels puzzled.Facts have proved that his intuition is not wrong, this Mrs. Wang is indeed poisonous!
