Chapter 18 Familiar Taste

On the way back from Changting Hall, Chen Fulin felt the smell of the bowl of medicine lingering on the tip of his nose along the way.

"Where did I smell it..."

She walked and talked all the way.

Chen Yanzhi had been in the Ministry of Criminal Justice for ten years before he became the servant of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. With such a father, Chen Fulin had been fascinated by difficult cases since he was a child.

And Chen Yanzhi told them a few times since he was a child that sometimes it is not necessary to rely on full evidence to decide a case.

intuition.

It is also a very important clue to solve the case.

She now has a "gut feeling" that something is not quite right.

There are many medicines for treating wind and cold, nothing more than isatis root, honeysuckle, burdock seed, Guanzhong, forsythia, nepeta, platycodon, Bupleurum, mint, perilla, and licorice, etc., only add some additives to these medicines. Minus, so the taste and smell are quite similar.

But the bowl of medicine just now...

The feeling of familiarity to her didn't seem to be due to these medicines.

But what is it?

From returning to Jiangfuxuan to finishing dinner, Bi Luo saw her young lady sitting by the window until it was dark, she walked over to persuade:
"Miss, I've been sitting here for a long time, why don't we take a good rest first? There are those who can't figure it out, maybe they can figure it out after a night of sleep!"

Chen Fulin glanced at the sky, it was getting late: "Well, then wash up and go to sleep."

She has been thinking about it for so long, and there is always something wrong with all the clues, so she might as well sleep and wake up to talk about it.

Sitting on the bed, he didn't feel very sleepy for a while, Chen Fulin suddenly remembered: "By the way, is there any news from Jing Huai today?"

Bi Luo thought for a while and replied:

"It's nothing else, except that His Royal Highness has never been to other places since he came to our Jiangfuxuan that day."

Chen Fulin let out a "hmm", and after she lay down, Ren Biluo covered her with a thin quilt, and stopped talking.

"The servant girl is outside, Liangdi will call me if there is anything to do."

After tidying up, Bi Luo whispered a few words of advice, and without Chen Fulin answering, she turned off a few lights before leaving.

at night,

The person on the bed frowned, and seemed to be in extreme anxiety.

It's a dream again...

This time Chen Fulin stood aside and looked at the familiar bed. The woman was in pain, her face was bloodless, her head was sweating profusely, and her cheeks were bitten tightly.

The veins in the hands tightly clutching the pillow were exposed, and the blood was faintly visible, but it was scratched through the cloth, and the palms of the hands were full of blood puddles from nails.

Chen Fulin also clenched his fists, in pain...

Even though she wasn't lying on the bed this time, the pain was like maggots on the tarsus, deep into the soul and flesh, and there was nowhere to escape, and there was no way to avoid it.

She watched the people coming and going in the room, unlike last time when she could only see Bi Luo and the two midwives in a blur, it was clearer than ever before.

Bi Luo panicked, the two midwives were sweating profusely guiding her how to exert force, while a few young maids beside her twisted the handkerchief and brought the water.

Oh, there is another one outside who makes medicine for her... that medicine was prescribed by the imperial physician to prevent fatigue during labor.

She specifically asked a trusted imperial doctor to read the prescription, to make sure that there was nothing wrong with it, and Bi Luo personally took care of the medicine.

The little maid fanned her fan intently, staring at the medicine in the jar, beads of sweat dripped down her cheeks from her forehead.

Then, the inside began to become chaotic, because "she" had no strength, so she urged to take the medicine and go in.

The little maid hurriedly picked up the medicine pot on the stove, regardless of her little hands being burned red, poured out a bowl of medicine and took it in.

Chen Fulin watched "she" drink the medicine, and then—

"what!"

"The empress is bleeding!"

"..."

Chen Fulin suddenly sat up from the bed, panting heavily, dripping with sweat, still in shock.

"Biluo..."

"Bi Luo!"

Bi Luo heard the movement, put on a coat and hurried in: "Miss, are you having nightmares again?"

She glanced at the sweaty man sitting on the bed, wiped the young lady's sweat lightly, then hurried to the table to pour a glass of water, and touched the teapot, luckily it was still warm.

"Miss, drink some water."

Chen Fulin took the glass and poured a full glass of water, still recovering.

She was stunned for a long time, but Bi Luo didn't bother her, Mama said that the person who had the nightmare had to bring himself back to his senses, otherwise it would be easy to startle.

Bi Luo sat on the side of the bed and accompanied her quietly, one hand was tightly held by the young lady.

After a long time, Chen Fulin said hoarsely:
"Bi Luo, I want you to sleep with me..."

She seemed to know what the medicine was.

At this moment, she was eager to grasp something, and with someone around, she would feel much more at ease.

The next day,

After Chen Fulin woke up, he was hesitating whether to go to Changting Hall or not.

She didn't know why she dreamed about those things so clearly, maybe it was because of the familiar smell of medicine during the day.

However, she was almost certain that the medicine the little maid boiled was closely related to her subsequent blood collapse.

I just don't know if someone tampered with the medicine in advance, or because of the little maid who boiled the medicine...

The familiar smell of medicine in Changting Hall is very similar to what she drank at that time. It should be absolutely unnecessary to cure a cold, right?

However, she was not sure what the medicine was for a while, like... musk?
Or safflower?

But how to tell sister Cui about this?
I suspect there is something wrong with the medicine you drink?

Then who gave the medicine?Why do you want to take medicine?
Biluo saw that something was wrong with her since she came back from yesterday, and she even had a nightmare at night, so she couldn't help but worry:
"Is Liang Di better?"

She brought over the sedative soup in her hand, and hesitated again: "I went to the East Palace doctor in the morning to ask for a dose of sedative medicine, you often have nightmares recently, you should drink it better.

Counting the time when she was still in the mansion, in just one month, Di Liang had nightmares three or four times, and she didn't know which god she offended.

Bi Luo even wondered if she should send a message to Madam and go to Dongming Temple to ask Di Liang for a talisman?
Chen Fulin looked at the dark soothing soup, wrinkled his nose and waved his hands, "I'm fine, I don't need to take medicine."

She knows her own situation, as long as she can't find the person who attacked her in the first place, and as long as she can't kill her enemy, she can't forget the heart-piercing pain...

Bi Luo tried to persuade her again, but seeing that she really refused to take the medicine, she had no choice but to take it:

"If it's still a nightmare, Di Liang can no longer be willful."

She has always been helpless with her, even the wife can't treat the young lady.

Growing up together, Bi Luo has always known that her young lady has always had ideas since she was a child.

She was chosen by the young lady herself. At that time, the young lady was only three years old, and she was only four years old. Together with the young girls of the right age in the mansion, they stood there with a look of fear and let others choose.

The family property of the Chen family is not that big, and there are only four household servants in the family, and the rest are servants who bought into the mansion here and there.

She is the son of a family, and the family manages a small village in the southern suburbs for the Chen family. Logically speaking, she has a lot of advantages.

But that year, the eldest lady in the mansion had six or seven maids who were two or three years old, and the young lady had at most two personal maids by her side, and the Chen residence never used a contract of living.

Once bought, it must be a death contract, unless the master voluntarily releases the person, otherwise he will be a slave for generations.

In this way, her advantage is even more gone.

She was terrified.

Because her mother and father are still waiting outside the yard, if she can't be selected, she will go to the farm that her parents are looking after to cut grass and feed the cows.

The first time she saw the bright pink and jade carvings, but she wanted to pretend to be a serious young lady like an adult, she knew——

She didn't want to go back to mowing grass and feeding the cows.

She wanted to stay with Miss.

 The first bullet of revenge——
