Chapter 3
It was not yet bright yet, but heavy snow had been falling all night long, and the biting cold wind was also wreaking havoc, causing the white lanterns and mourning flags that had just been hung around the beams to sway several times.

Qu Yunchu followed Lu Junwan out of the woodshed, and stepped on the snow-covered corridor with difficulty. Every step he took, his feet creaked.

Seeing that he could hear the yelling and cursing from the mourning hall, Qu Yunchu's footsteps suddenly paused, and after recovering his emotions, he was about to move on when a hand suddenly grabbed her from behind.

She looked back, and saw four or five servants carrying lamps behind Lu Junwan, standing there with a preoccupied look.

"how?"

Qu Yunchu looked at her in confusion.

Lu Junwan pondered for a moment, then suddenly said: "Zhiyi, you can run away while the sky is dark and the people in the house haven't noticed yet."

After saying that, he immediately took out a wad of banknotes from his arms and forced it into her hand, and said seriously:
"Go back and take your mother with you as far as you can go. The marriage between you and your second brother is not my fault. If I had known that you agreed to marry out of anger, I would not have persuaded my mother."

Looking at the place where the human voice came from, she sighed heavily, and then said:

"You also know that the Lu family has been at the forefront of the storm in the three years since the new emperor ascended the throne.

The second elder brother has a deep relationship with that nobleman in the palace, but at this juncture something happened to the second elder brother,
When the officials come, in order to calm things down, they will definitely try to prove that it was you who poisoned you. "

"I understand, after all, someone has to take the blame."

Qu Yun Chuyun smiled lightly, and stuffed the banknote back into her arms.

At this time, it was rare that she could still think of escaping for herself, and she didn't want to implicate her again.

Tightening her hand, she continued to walk forward without hesitation, saying as she walked:
"Even if you leave the Lu family, you should go out openly, why do you have to be sneaky?"

"But."

Lu Junwan was still worried.

"It's nothing more."

Qu Yunchu urged: "It will be too late if it is too late."

The ghost messenger appeared in the Lu residence just now, probably not because of himself.

Lan Hua's lineage has always had three types of people who cannot be saved: those who have died, those who are heinous and heinous, and the last category is those whose souls have been locked away by ghosts.

If you act against the sky, not only will you lose your merit, but you will also suffer backlash.

Although Lu Wenqian died unexpectedly, he was afraid that someone would have already taken the lead, and if his soul was seduced by then, there would be no cure for it.

She has to hurry over there.

Seeing that she had made up her mind, Lu Junwan stopped trying to persuade her and followed her to the mourning hall in silence.

Only then could he clearly see the mourning hall covered with white flags, and Qu Yunchu saw a familiar figure beside the coffin.

He was kneeling down to look inside the coffin.

"Raise your hands high."

As soon as Qu Yunchu shouted, the ghost ran away and disappeared from sight in a flash.

Seeing his hurried appearance, Qu Yunchu could only sigh silently again.

Ben wanted to find him to reason about why he found such an unappealable physical body for himself, but he ran away again.

I really don't have the strength to catch up with him for another seven days and seven nights.

It's better to get free first and then worry about other things.

Lu Junwan was puzzled and asked weakly, "Zhiyi, who are you talking to?"

"Oh, nothing."

Qu Yunchu pursed his lips and motioned for her to walk over with him.

Hearing the shouts from outside, the mourning hall, which had been buzzing with excitement, suddenly fell silent, and a pair of eyes full of hatred and contempt coincided with Qu Yunchu who was standing at the door.

"Jun Wan, why did you bring her here?"

The first to speak out was Lu Yanchao's mother Huashi.

In the past, this woman was allowed to quarrel with Yan Chao because she learned that there was also a copy of "Lan Hua Medical Classic" passed down in her family. Now that she has obtained this medical classic, why should she and her son flirt with each other and cause gossip.

"You ungrateful and lowly bitch, you begged for nothing to marry into my Lu family, but you didn't know how to cherish this hard-won blessing, and you even seduced your nephew to murder your own husband. , do you know how to write the word "honesty and shame?"

He scolded her fiercely and immediately called someone to drive her away.

"Hold on."

Lu Junwan thought that time was precious, so he did not explain much. He simply wished his sister-in-law good luck, then walked to the old woman who was sitting next to the coffin with her head bowed, and whispered:
"Mom, the second sister-in-law said that she can detoxify the second brother. Maybe the second brother can be saved."

As soon as this statement came out, the whole hall was in an uproar.

"It's a joke. You can believe her words. If she has this ability, I can fly to the sky and become a fairy."

The corners of Fahrenheit's mouth were crooked, and he kept sneering.

Lu Boting from the second room gave Qu Yunchu a cold sideways look, and also came out to persuade him:
"Sanniang, don't follow this poisonous woman's mischief. The guests who are paying their condolences will be entering the house one after another later. Please hurry up and help your sister-in-law decorate the mourning hall, so as not to make your mother sad again."

Listening to the commotion around him, Qu Yunchu seemed to have no intention of paying attention at this time, and just looked up and down the mourning hall indifferently.

Only a few hours had passed, and the mourning hall had been properly arranged, and even the coffin was ready to be sealed. It seemed that someone really wanted Lu Wenqian to die early.

Taking advantage of the fact that the lid of the coffin was not sealed, she leaned her neck up to poke into the coffin, only to see a handsome face at the bottom of the coffin.

Although the complexion was dark yellow, it was not the pale color that a person would appear after a complete death.

Judging from my many years of medical experience, this is at most a deep sleep, not a real death.

"Wait a minute."

Seeing that several men had lifted the lid of the coffin to seal it, she immediately yelled and stopped the movements of their hands.

Stepping forward and taking a closer look, he saw a dark color between Lu Wenqian's broad eyebrows.

The swollen black mass has penetrated deep into the center of the eyebrows, reaching to the heaven.

The space between the eyebrows is a person's life palace. If the life palace is dark, it will definitely affect the person's most basic fortune.

This is not like a simple poisoning, but more accurately a technique, which uses some kind of chronic drug to drain a person's energy, causing evil spirits to continuously invade.

"I don't know who is so vicious."

Qu Yunchu stared blankly at the coffin, looking at the man lying inside. Although he looked a little thin, his facial features were indescribably delicate and three-dimensional, with long strands like ink and skin as cold as jade. , what a living sleeping beauty.

Before anyone came out to stop her, she carefully looked at the person in the coffin again, and began to look through the strange things she had experienced and the classics she had consulted in her mind over the years.

She remembered that she read in a travelogue of a hermit expert that there is a poison called Luohui in the far south that blindly attracts evil spirits. Although the toxicity is not as severe as arsenic and crane crest red, if you take a small amount every day Ingested into people's diet, they will not be noticed at all, but in the long run, it will make people's limbs numb, weak all over, and gradually fall into a coma and deep sleep.

The so-called people live with one breath, once the energy is exhausted, evil spirits will invade.

Combined with the original body's recent impressions of Lu Wenqian, she roughly came to a conclusion in her heart:

I'm afraid that Lu Wenqian was harmed by this poison.

When the men beside the coffin heard the shouts, they raised the coffin lid and looked around, feeling extremely embarrassed for a moment.

After a long silence, the silver-haired old woman in black clothes sitting next to the coffin slowly got up and began to stare at her closely.

There was annoyance and frustration in his eyes, all directed at her:

"Do you know what you are doing?"

After a moment of pause, her eyes became darker:

"You are also from the Qingliu family, but you have repeatedly done things that are detrimental to women's morals. Today, you want to act wildly in front of your dead husband's spirit. How can your conscience be?"

Qu Yunchu recognized that this person was Jiang Rui, the old lady of the Lu family, and imitated the original owner's tone and said politely:
"If the mother feels that the daughter-in-law has lost her virtue, the officials have already prepared a divorce letter, and the daughter-in-law is willing to receive the divorce letter.

It's just that human life is at stake right now, if it's someone else, it's fine, the official is poisoned, but the mother didn't even find out what the poison was, and let someone seal the coffin for a big funeral, it would be too hasty. "

"Are you worthy enough to mention this?"

Jiang Rui became even more angry: "If it wasn't for you, why would Qian'er be here?"

What is because of me?
Qu Yunchu was full of bitterness and had no place to pour it out.

It was unreasonable that the idiot in the original body caused this mess and had to wipe her ass himself.

But for the sake of the divorce letter, she could only endure the bad breath and argued with reason:

"Nowadays everyone thinks that the daughter-in-law has harmed the officials, but there is no excuse for the crime. I think my mother knows this best.
The daughter-in-law does not ask her mother to clear her name for me, but only asks her mother to allow her daughter-in-law to detect and treat the official, so that the official will not be harmed by an adulterer by mistake. "

She also knew that she shouldn't have mentioned the last few words at this time, but if she didn't make her suspicions clear, no one would be willing to let her save people.

As she expected, as soon as she started talking, she attracted a lot of advice from the whole room:

"It's a good one to be murdered by a traitor, who else in this house would be so cruel to Wen Qian except you, a poisonous woman?"

"It's clear that you, a vicious woman, are jealous of Wen Qian who gave you a letter of divorce, and that's why you became ill."

Fahrenheit doesn't know where this woman has the courage to go to the front door of the hall to make trouble today, but thinking that her father was a court physician, and worried that this woman was deliberately hiding her clumsiness before, she moved out Lu Boyong from the third room:
"You whore are not only good at seducing people, but you are also good at talking nonsense. Not only the doctors in the mansion, but even the third uncle helped the pulse of the second brother himself. The second brother has long since lost his pulse. Shouldn't he be buried earlier?"

Lu Boyong has been taking care of the Lu family's medical business, and his medical skills are quite prestigious throughout Tanzhou and even Dayue Kingdom.

Looking at his nephew-in-law's questioning eyes, he immediately stood up and echoed vowedly:
"Wen Qian was indeed poisoned too deeply, his energy and blood were deficient, and his pulse was absent."

"It's true that he lost his pulse, but Second Lord Lu didn't really die."

Qu Yunchu said with firm eyes.

Lu Baiyong's eyes sank: "Are you questioning the old man's diagnosis and doubting the old man's medical skills?"

"Since Third Uncle believes so firmly in his medical skills and is a well-informed person, can't he even tell whether a person is really dead or fake?"

Qu Yun first looked at his insincere eyes and sneered coldly:

"Doctors are kind-hearted. When practicing medicine, they pay attention to seeing, hearing, asking and asking questions. Third uncle can decide whether to live or die based on the pulse condition alone. Treating human life like a piece of grass in this way is detrimental to one's moral character."

Lu Boyong was startled when he heard this, and immediately lowered his head with a guilty conscience.

The reason why he turned to his nephew and daughter-in-law, Huashi, to persuade his elder sister-in-law to arrange the funeral earlier, because the third room had to point to Huashi and Yanchao's mother and son;
Furthermore, he really couldn't find out the cause of his nephew, and he didn't want anyone to come out and overshadow his limelight from the bottom of his heart.

Simply, he followed Hua Shi's wishes and made up the story that his nephew was poisoned by a strange poison, so that he could help Hua Shi, Yanchao and his son take full control of the Lu family's business.
