Zhuang Xiaoyu felt sore and astringent in her heart, seeing the broken jade lying on the bed, inexplicably remembered when she was young...

At that time, her mother had passed away, and Yu Sui had just been bought by her. She was afraid of the dark at night, and Zhuang Xiaoyu was prone to nightmares, so Yu Sui set up a low couch beside the bed and slept with her.

In the middle of the night, there was a nightmare, and Yu Sui found that Zhuang Xiaoyu was still afraid, so she removed the low couch, climbed directly onto the bed, hugged her to sleep together, or held her hand, the two whispered, and slowly fell asleep up...

Thinking of this, Zhuang Xiaoyu lay down on Yu Sui's side, holding her hand as before, and closed her eyes.

When I woke up, it was already dark.

Zhuang Xiaoyu opened her eyes, and found that Yu Sui had woken up at some point, and was looking at her with her head turned sideways.

Zhuang Xiaoyu turned sideways, hugged her in his arms, and touched her face again, the two looked at each other speechlessly.

Zhuang Xiaoyu opened her mouth, wanting to ask what happened, who bullied you, and why no one could find you, but asking any word will inevitably involve those pains...

Yu Sui looked indifferent, and her voice was a little hoarse: "Miss, when I get better, I will tell you everything I need to tell you."

She just hasn't figured out what to say to Zhuang Xiaoyu.

Zhuang Xiaoyu nodded.

The guard reported at the door that there was an accident on the cableway due to a landslide, Qin Wuyan would not be able to come back tonight, and asked Zhuang Xiaoyu to rest earlier.

Zhuang Xiaoyu nodded, watching the raindrops dripping from the eaves like broken beads, holding an oil-paper umbrella, went to the courtyard next door to look for Xue Zhong.

On the surface, Dr. Zhong was a doctor invited back by Zhuang Xiaoyu, who specially took care of the vicar and his wife, but now he has another duty, which is to keep the life of the high priest.

Xue Zhong seemed to have known for a long time that Zhuang Xiaoyu would come to look for him, so he stood silently in front of Zhuang Xiaoyu, and said in a low voice, "Miss."

Zhuang Xiaoyu smiled coldly: "You still have the face to call me Miss?"

Xue Zhong fell to his knees on the ground with a "thud", lowered his head, not daring to look at him.

Seeing Xue Zhong's appearance, Zhuang Xiaoyu trembled slightly: "I have sent away the guards outside, tell me, did you deceive me on purpose?"

Xue Zhong didn't say anything, and didn't dare to say anything.

Zhuang Xiaoyu's fingers stroked the herbs placed on the table one by one: "Doctor Zhong, there are so many witch doctors in the mansion, and you are good at women's diseases. In other respects, your medical skills are no better than the witch doctors in this mansion. How much higher.

Miss Ben, let me ask you, has my father been secretly poisoned? "

Xue Zhong thought about it and was about to answer.

Zhuang Xiaoyu said again: "Think about it, I just want to hear the truth."

Xue Zhong had no choice but to speak: "The high priest was poisoned with bone-eroding poison from the very beginning, and the toxin had already penetrated into the bone marrow. The old slave asked the witch doctor about it. In order to prolong the life of the high priest, an expert once gave it to the high priest. Suppressing the poison in the high priest's body through the method of fighting poison with poison...

Later, when the master's medicine ran out, they gave the high priest some more conservative medicine. Even if they secretly poisoned the high priest, the old slave couldn't tell when the poison was administered. I can't tell what it's for..."

Anyway, if you want to investigate, you can't find out. Zhuang Qingyun has calculated everything from the first day of poisoning...

Dying people, it seems useless to pursue these.

However, I have to admit that the witch doctor in this mansion clearly has a way to prolong Zhuang Huaisen's life. It is not impossible to let Zhuang Huaisen live for a while, but these people are not willing to let the high priest who once called the wind and rain live. That's all.

Zhuang Xiaoyu asked again: "The current priest's mansion is controlled by the acting priest, that is, my husband. I picked him up on the mountain. I mentioned his family to me inadvertently. He was born in a scholarly family. It's just that his parents passed away early. , there is an older brother on the top, and a younger brother on the bottom, but they are both dead...

Doctor Zhong, how did they die? "
