The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort - 188. Her demon

Steward Lin asked for a prescription from Xia Qing, and was instructing his servants to grab medicine, when he saw the carriage of King Jinying’s Mansion rushing back. I wondered how I came back so early, when I found that the curtain was lifted from the inside, and Forsythia and Baizhi came out half-supported and half-held by one person. They fixed their eyes to see who was it not Jiang Ruan?

Although Lao Lin is over 50 years old, his eyes are sharp. I noticed the blood on the corners of Jiang Ruan’s lips at a glance, and immediately my heart jumped and saw that Xiao Shao was not here. Immediately trot to meet him, and said, “What’s the matter? What’s wrong with the young lady?”

“Madam Young fainted.” Bai Zhi said anxiously: “Go and call the doctor, butler Lin, please ask someone to help Madam Young back.”

Steward Lin was anxious as soon as he heard it. This was not what happened on the first day of the wedding. He thought that there was a ready-made genius doctor in the neighboring house, so he immediately sent someone to invite Xia Qing to see it. After Jiang Ruan was helped to lie down in the house, butler Lin asked Forsythia with his head and face covered: “How come Madam Young is dizzy? How do you take care of Madam Young?”

Luzhu and Tianzhu also rushed over when they heard this. There were no other wounds on Jiang Ruan’s body, and it didn’t look like someone had been hurt. Forsythia blamed herself: “The girl met Miss Si in the palace, and she said a few words to Miss Si. When she turned her head back on the carriage, something went wrong, as if the devil was stunned, and then she vomited blood and fainted. .”

“What did she say to the young lady?” Tianzhu asked.

“It’s nothing, just say something about fate, and it sounds nothing wrong.” Forsythia frowned. As he was talking, he saw Xia Qing and Qi Feng rushing in in a hurry. The two of them were discussing when to leave Beijing, so they rushed in the imperial mansion halfway through, saying only that something was wrong with Jiang Ruan. I want Xia Qing to go and take a look.

Xia Qing originally thought that the people in Jinying Palace were too nervous, Jiang Ruan, but the sesame-sized things to do were just as earth-shattering. As a result, when I came in and saw Jiang Ruan lying on the bed with his eyes closed, he was taken aback. Qi Feng’s expression changed and said, “Why did Sansao become like this?”

“Oh my fifth master,” Steward Lin anxiously pulled Xia Qing and rushed to the bed: “You can quickly show me, I’m afraid that the young lady is showing some popularity, and Fang even vomited blood. This is terrific. . Don’t hurt your body at a young age.” In Forsythia’s words, Jiang Ruan didn’t suffer from a stab wound, but was mad at Jiang Dan’s words. Although I don’t understand why the anger is like this, there is no better explanation at the moment.

Xia Qing frowned, walked to the bed and sat down, and reached out to explore Jiang Ruan’s veins. Everyone looked at him nervously. After a while, Xia Qing put down his hands, and Qi Feng said nervously: “Fifth, what happened?”

“The third sister-in-law is too worried, and she has old chronic illnesses. Today, she was agitated, but she was frustrated and vomited a mouthful of blood clots in her chest. Now she can’t wake up.” Xia Qing wanted to speak and stopped. , Finally shook his head and said: “I will prescribe the deputy first, but Steward Lin, you find someone to grab the medicine and immediately boil it up for Sansao to drink.” Although he said lightly, there was no relaxation between his eyebrows, but a bit dignified. , This is not an ordinary thing for Xia Qing, who is known as the Holy Hand of Jinling. Just forget about the forsythia, Qi Feng clenched his fists like Xia Qing.

But Steward Lin didn’t dare to delay, so he immediately sent someone to grab the medicine. Xia Qing sat in the room, looking at Jiang Ruan, her expression gloomy and uncertain, she didn’t know what she was thinking. Standing by the window, Qi Feng raised his eyes from time to time and scanned Jiang Ruan. After a few maids were busy, Jiang Ruan never showed signs of waking up.

About half an hour later, the door of the room was suddenly opened, and a cold winter breath came in from the outside. Xiao Shao strode in from outside the door, still covered with unmelted snow. He walked to the bed, looked at Jiang Ruan’s closed eyes, startled slightly, then turned his head, looked at Forsythia and Baizhi, and said coldly: “What’s the matter?”

Forsythia and Bai Zhi looked at each other, and Bai Zhi had to repeat the explanation to the people just now: “After the prince and the girl were separated, the girl met Miss Si in the palace, and she spoke a few words with Miss Si, and the girl turned around. He vomited blood on the carriage, and then fainted. Xia Wuye said it was the cause of the girl’s chronic disease.” After a pause, Bai Zhi said again: “Where can the girl have any chronic disease?”

Xiao Shao was taken aback, raised his eyes to look aside Xia Qing, silent for a while, and said to Forsythia: “What did Jiang Dan say to her, tell me without missing a word.”

He had a cold tone, his eyes were dark, and he was filled with deep anger. Forsythia trembled in his heart, biting his scalp and repeating every word Jiang Dan and Jiang Ruan said. Then he said: “This is all the words. The slave and maid dared to say a word. There is no strange place in these few words, but the girl in the carriage is like a taboo, she is very afraid, slave and maid. I have been with the girl for so many years, and since returning to Beijing a few years ago, I have never seen the girl fear anything like this again.”

Upon hearing this, Qi Feng looked at Forsythia inquiringly. Xiao Shao clenched his hand, and seemed to stand still thinking for a moment, then turned to leave, and Qi Feng grabbed him: “Brother, what do you want to do?”

“Untie the bell and you must tie the bell. This matter has something to do with Jiang Dan, so naturally I’m looking for her.” Xiao Shao said.

“What can you do now? These few words definitely cannot convict her.” Qi Feng glanced at Jiang Ruan: “Are you going to kill her now? This will only cause trouble for Sansao.” In his words, he put himself in the position for Jiang Ruan’s sake. He didn’t want Xiao Shao to hear the words, but his eyes drenched, and when he looked at him, he said coldly: “That’s my wife, don’t bother you.”

Qi Feng’s throat was astringent, he was actually speechless, and his expression was quite embarrassed. But Xia Qing also stood up, and a baby’s face was covered with a heavy weight that was incompatible with his age: “Don’t quarrel. Third brother, third sister-in-law is not anxious because of others’ words, even if it is just an opportunity, it is truly What made her look like now is because she was poisoned.”

Qi Feng grabbed Xiao Shao’s hand and let it go, “Poisoned?”

“Impossible,” Xiao Shao said: “No one can start in the palace.” Everything here is managed by Steward Lin himself, and the guards in the palace cannot betray a heart. Poisoning Jiang Ruan is more difficult than killing her directly.

“It’s not the poison in the palace.” Xia Qing shook her head: “This poison has been in her body for more than ten years. It seems to be a toxin carried from the womb. I don’t know why, it stopped for several years, so that The toxin has not spread. But it has accumulated in the body, and now someone has used something to induce the toxin to come out. As for the words that the two maids said in the palace, they were angry, just let the induced toxins flow in Sansao’s body. Faster.” He hesitated: “It seems that there are other intentions, but I can’t think of it.”

“Fifth!” Qi Feng also ignored Xiao Shao’s tit-for-tat, and said anxiously: “Then the prescription you just prescribed is effective? Can you solve the poison of Sansao?”

It is not that he is not confident in Xia Qing, but that Qi Feng has already understood every expression of Xia Qing as a senior fellow for so many years. As a genius doctor, Xia Qing has a sense of excitement and enthusiasm when facing patients, with self-confidence in her eyes. It was the first time that such anxious and solemn expressions made Qi Feng feel uncomfortable.

Xiao Shao also stared at Xia Qing closely, not to mention the Forsythia Baizhi, as if he would cry out as soon as he said that he was hopeless. Xia Qing swallowed hardly before saying: “In fact, I have never seen this kind of poison. I am doing it according to other detoxification prescriptions. I will have to observe for a few more days before turning my head back to diagnose it. ”

“How long will it take?” Xiao Shao asked: “Her life is not a child’s play.”

“Two days.” Xia Qing said hurriedly: “It only takes two days. Two days later, if her poison has not been controlled, I think I can do nothing.”

Xiao Shao stared at Xia Qing for a long while, until Xia Qing was a little horrified, he nodded almost invisible, “You only have two days.”

Xia Qing wiped off his sweat. He had never known that his third senior brother was cold-tempered, but he didn’t expect it to be so terrible when the gloom was really down, and it was really stressful. I simply found a reason to go out to study the prescription. After Xia Qing and Qi Feng left, Steward Lin came in and said, “Yesterday, the young lady ordered someone to check everything, and there is nothing wrong in our house.”

When Forsythia and Baizhi heard about it, Forsythia said anxiously: “I was afraid that the girl was hungry yesterday. The servant girl found some Baoyuezhai cakes for the girl, but the cakes should be no problem.” Baizhi also nodded, “That bag” The pastries are evenly distributed from the big bag, and all the rest is distributed to the maids in the yard. Everyone is okay after eating. It is impossible that the pastries are poisonous.”

This matter must be investigated carefully. It is indeed like finding a needle in a haystack. Xiao Shao waved his hand. Ye Feng understood what he meant, and immediately said, “Subordinates are going to Baoyuezhai now.”

Such a change happened on the first day of the wedding, it is really not a good sign. Xiao Shao looked at Jiang Ruan’s slightly pale face, her expression indistinguishable. Forsythia pushed Bai Zhi, and the two went out together. Xiao Shao walked to Jiang Ruan and sat down, slowly reaching out and pulling the broken hair from her ear aside, a trace of guilt flashed in her eyes.

The top priority is to get rid of Jiang Ruan’s poison. Xia Qing’s words reminded him that he had pulse with Jiang Ruan a few years ago, and then he discovered an abnormality in Jiang Ruan’s pulse condition. It seemed that there was a problem with his body earlier, but his Huang Qi technique was not as sophisticated as Xia Qing, thinking that now the toxin is gradually receding, as long as it is a little recuperated, it is not a problem. Never thought that this toxin was actually a poisonous snake dormant in Jiang Ruan’s body. Although Qi Feng and Xia Qing said that Jiang Ruan’s poisoning had nothing to do with Jiang Dan, after Jiang Dan spoke to Jiang Ruan, Jiang Ruan’s fearful reaction must be due to some reason. Jiang Dan must not be innocent about this matter. He frowned slightly, besides, according to Xia Qing’s words, this toxin had accumulated in Jiang Ruan’s body for many years. In other words, Jiang Ruan was poisoned when he was still a child, who inflicted the poison on a child?

He had also heard that Jiang Ruan’s early days in Jiang’s Mansion were not going well, but he did not expect that someone was brewing to kill her when she was very young. Thinking of this, Xiao Shao’s eyes suddenly became too much. A compelling chill. He stroked Jiang Ruan’s hair, stood up and walked out of the room. Jin Er and a few were waiting outside with serious expressions. Xiao Shao looked down and said lightly: “Everything that happened in Jiang’s Mansion after the birth of the princess, no matter what happened. I want to know everything.”

Jin Yi’s expressions shrank, and he said seriously: “Yes.” He took the order and left.

The time flew and the night came, Xiao Shao sat in the room, batch after batch of official documents were approved, but his expression was not exhausted at all. Steward Lin came several times to persuade him to rest earlier, Xiao Shao only said that there was still something to do, and a discerning person could see that he was just guarding Jiang Ruan with excuses. It’s just that the master’s idea can’t be changed by others, and after a few times to no avail, it is also forgotten.

Dewdrop came in, holding a medicine bowl in her hand, and seeing Xiao Shao still there, she said: “Uncle, the medicine that the genius doctor Xia ordered to decoct the girl is finished. The slave and Tianzhu watched the decoction together. Pass.” Because Jiang Ruan was poisoned, the palace is now very concerned about taking medicine, for fear of others’ ways. The seducer does not come out early, and Jiang Ruan is always dangerous around him.

Xiao Shao raised her eyes and glanced, “You go out, I’ll feed her.”

Dewdrop dared not say anything, turned around and put the medicine bowl on the desk before leaving the room. After the dewdrop left, Xiao Shao picked up the medicine bowl and walked to the bed, helped Jiang Ruan up and leaned on him, blew the black-brown medicine in the bowl, and slowly fed it into Jiang Ruan’s mouth.

他动作极为轻柔，生怕无意间弄疼蒋阮。若是被别人瞧见一向待人淡漠的萧韶竟也会如此温柔体贴，怕是会惊得眼珠子都掉下来。

无奈蒋阮正与昏迷之中，药汁顺着嘴角流了出来，溅到了床上，打湿了萧韶胸前一片。他也浑然未觉，只伸出手来轻轻替蒋阮擦去嘴边的药渍。这样喂药也不是办法，萧韶垂眸想了想，忽而端起药碗来抿了一口，接着捏住蒋阮的下巴微抬，俯下身将唇贴上她的，慢慢的以口将药汁哺了过去。

少女容颜绝色，平日里温婉的外表下神情总是带着一份不露痕迹的漠然，而此刻嘴唇柔软，带着药汁清苦的香气。若是往常，大约还有一些风花雪月的念头。可如今萧韶却是心无杂念，看着蒋阮只觉心疼。

一弯腰缓缓渡到蒋阮嘴里。终于，萧韶放下手里的空碗，正要扶着她躺下的时候，却猛地觉得自己胸前的衣襟被人一抓，他微愕，垂首看去，正对上蒋阮睁大的双眼。

“你……”有一瞬间的窘迫，继而来之的便是惊喜，萧韶握住蒋阮的肩膀，道：“你醒了？”

然后蒋阮并没有回答他的话，双眼瞪的极大，目光里却并非沉静，甚至于带了无助和恐慌，萧韶一怔，这样的目光出现在蒋阮眼里是陌生的。而她恍若未觉萧韶就在眼前，只是紧紧的抓着萧韶的衣襟，嘴里喃喃自语着什么。

萧韶蹙起眉，附耳过去，蒋阮的话清晰的传到他耳中，她在念念有词的是：“救我。”

萧韶猝然一惊，蒋阮身子瑟缩成一团，抓着他的衣襟的手却丝毫不放开，仿佛抓着最后一根救命稻草，小声的，一遍一遍的重复道：“救我，救救我。”

“阿阮，”萧韶放柔声音，轻轻拍着她的背：“别怕，我是萧韶。”

蒋阮瞪大眼睛看着他，却又似乎在透过他看着别的什么东西，萧韶伸出的手顿住，蒋阮疯狂地往后退去。她的目光绝望而凄凉，仿佛看到了什么极为可怕的东西，她愤怒的质问道：“宣离，你怎么敢如此待我！”

萧韶紧紧盯着她的眼睛，第一次感到手足无措。他蓦地大喝一声：“夜枫！”

Ye Feng suddenly opened the door and came in: “Master, what’s the matter?” When he saw Jiang Ruan’s appearance, Ye Feng was also shocked. When did Jiang Ruan have such an embarrassed expression, it seemed that he was not facing Xiao Shao, but an enemy with blood and deep hatred. I haven’t recovered from the scene in front of me, I only heard Xiao Shao’s indifferent voice: “Tell Xia Wu to get in!”

Xia Qing rushed over quickly. In order to take care of Jiang Ruan’s condition, he simply moved into Jinying Palace. Being lifted from the quilt in the middle of the night, Xia Qing faintly had a bad feeling. When I entered the room, I saw Jiang Ruan behaving abnormally, and I felt shocked. Xiao Shao’s face was so heavy that water dripped and asked, “Why did she become like this?”

Xia Qing didn’t dare to be careless, and immediately stepped forward to check Jiang Ruan’s pulse. Under this one, he was stunned. She seemed a little bit unbelievable, and then took another careful look at Xiao Shao and said, “Brother, Sansao’s body is okay. But this behavior seems to be a nightmare. I am afraid that she has some kind of demon, and now the mistakes have been stimulated.” Xia Qing was a little embarrassed and broke through unknowingly. Jiang Ruan’s secret, with this third sister-in-law’s resolute temperament, he didn’t know how to treat him after he woke up. However, despite some scruples, it was his sister-in-law, Xia Qing still said: “This is the third sister-in-law’s heart demon, I can only prescribe a prescription to calm the nerves for her, but whether it will work or not, I really don’t know. Third brother, I’m a doctor, but I can’t heal people’s heart disease. Don’t embarrass me.”

This is true. Xiao Shao knew that Xia Qing couldn’t come up with a good way to ask, so he said in a deep voice, “Get out.” Only Ye Feng and Xiao Shao were left in the room.

Jiang Ruan shrank in the corner of the bed, her expression was sad, her eyes were hollow and sullen, Xiao Shao’s gaze was startled when she saw her, how could anyone in the world have such a gaze? For so many years, Jin Yiwei’s men had a lot of lives, and some people struggled to beg for mercy before dying, but they were not as fierce as the girl in front of him. There was no ordinary glory and cunning in those eyes that raised, only despair engraved in the bones, it seemed as if by those eyes, there was no light anymore in the world.

Demon? Xiao Shao remembered Xia Qing’s words, Jiang Ruan has a demon? His eyes were cold and he looked at the girl in front of him. From a long time ago, he felt that Jiang Ruan had a secret that no one knew. She often made some strange behaviors, but that behavior was never useless. She was like a sudden glimmer of Da Jinchao, strange and mysterious, and she didn’t know what it meant. Xiao Shao didn’t ignore her words just now. Xuanli… Many things she does are related to Xuanli if they are like nothing. He also sent a dark guard to investigate the relationship between Jiang Ruan and Xuanli, but he didn’t find out anything. I thought it was just some accident, but now it seems that his guess is correct. Jiang Ruan Yuxuan is determined to have some feast, looking at the appearance, it is not too much of blood and blood! What exactly did Xuan Li do to her? She actually asked so sadly.

Ye Feng couldn’t help being frightened while watching. What kind of person Jiang Ruan was like in ordinary days, seemed to have no weaknesses, even in the face of even cunning enemies, he would always be calm. Now after being poisoned, the heart demon was forced out, and he showed a very fragile side. What has she experienced?

Xiao Shao walked over gently, fearing to disturb her, Jiang Ruan stared at him coldly. Xiao Shao stretched out his hand, wanting to hold her in front of her chest for relief, and didn’t want Fang to get in front of her, Jiang Ruan grabbed his arm and bit down.

“Master!” Ye Feng screamed, and he saw Jiang Ruan’s heavy bite, and the light-colored clothes Xiao Shao was wearing today, suddenly the blood stained. And he just frowned slightly, let her bite, and then stretched out his other hand and gently touched her head, with a soft tone: “Don’t be afraid, I am here.”

He didn’t move, Jiang Ruan didn’t let go, and asked Ye Feng to feel anxious in his heart. I don’t know how long it took, Jiang Ruan seemed to be tired, and then let go, Xiao Shao freed her hand from her mouth, but was not in a hurry to see her injury. Instead, he reached out to help her wipe the blood from the corners of her mouth. Jiang Ruan stared at him blankly, his eyes flushed suddenly, and big drops of tears rolled on the back of Xiao Shao’s hand.

Could this be sober? Xiao Shao was startled, Jiang Ruan suddenly covered his face, and his voice was like laughing and crying. Ye Feng didn’t dare to make a splash. In this silent night, her cry was extremely clear. She took her hand away, her bright and colorful face was indistinguishable, like a desperate smile, but also a shocking sadness. She questioned: “Father, this is how you sent me to Huangquan. It turns out that you lied to me with them. It turns out that you want my life to be a stepping stone for Jiang Susu! It turns out that you wanted me to fulfill you from the very beginning. Credit and career, you are so cruel!”

Isn’t Jiang Susu dead? Why did you mention her again? Ye Feng wondered, what about Jiang Quan’s merits and career? These words of Jiang Ruan made Ye Feng heard them. Jiang Ruan shook his head and said: “I am not a demon girl who is a disaster for the country, I did not kill the emperor!”

“Hey, don’t think about A Ruan.” Xiao Shao forced her into her arms, no emotions could be seen in her dark eyes, but her tone was gentle and soothing.

Jiang Ruan pulled his sleeves and suddenly said: “You save my brother, you save him, they want to kill him, you save my brother.”

Xiao Shao closed her eyes, and when she raised her eyes, her eyes were as icy as she said coldly: “Ye Feng, you go to Shangshufu, please bring me Jiang Xinzhi!”
