The life of a peasant girl reborn

Chapter 349 The King of Qi (2)
Without waiting for He Yuyao's answer, Shen Xuan took Mo Yan out of the room and walked to a slightly remote place in the courtyard to talk.Fortunately, in order not to expose He Yuyao's "illness." All the redundant maids in the courtyard were kicked out, so the news of a man walking out of the boudoir did not spread in He's house, which was convenient for Shen Xuan and Mo Yan's dialogue.

"Tell me, what happened?" Shen Xuan asked Mo Yan standing in front of her.

"The master asked his subordinates to come down and tell Miss Shen to prepare for it. King Qi will bring the imperial doctor to the He residence later, and it should be for Miss He's diagnosis and treatment." Mo Yan replied truthfully, explaining the reason for his visit.

"Imperial doctor?" Shen Xuan repeated in a low voice, and then asked, "How is this imperial doctor's medical skills?"

"I don't know the specific subordinates, but someone who can be called an imperial doctor can't hide some things." Mo Yan replied, obviously he also knew the real situation of He Yuyao, so he reminded him.

"About when will it arrive?" Shen Xuan asked, she needs to know how much time is needed for preparation, and estimate the most favorable way.

"It's about an hour. It's quite a distance from Prince Qi's Mansion to He's Mansion by car."

After listening to Mo Yan's reminder, Shen Xuan had already figured it out, and told Mo Yan, "Go back and tell him that I know it, and let him rest assured that I will take care of this matter."

"My subordinates will leave, and Miss Shen's words will definitely be brought with me." Mo Yan replied, and after speaking, the figure jumped away from the place.

Glancing at the direction where the ink inkstone disappeared, Shen Xuan turned around and walked into the room.Drive the two maids out of the room and let them stay outside, seeing He Yuyao's curiosity.With an inquiring look, Shen Xuan explained aloud, "That's someone next to Mr. Xue. He came to inform me of something urgent and broke into the boudoir. I'll apologize to Sister He on his behalf. Please forgive me."

He Yuyao knew who this person was after hearing the word Xue Gongzi. Thinking of the relationship between the other party and Shen Xuan's engagement, He Yuyao smiled and shook her head, expressing that she didn't care about it.

Looking at He Yuyao's expression sincerely, Shen Xuan put the matter aside.Thinking of the news brought by Mo Yan just now, Tun immediately asked, "Has Sister He met King Qi? Or has King Qi met Sister He?"

He Yuyao shook her head instinctively when she heard Shen Xuan's question, and after thinking of something, she answered, "I've seen you a few times, and they were all at palace banquets." Looking at Shen Xuan's facial expressions, she thought of Shen Xuan's words. The topic was a bit abrupt, and He Yuyao asked, "Why did sister Shen suddenly ask about King Qi?"

"Forget it." Hearing the other party's answer, Shen Xuan said in a low voice.

Just now, Shen Xuan thought of a countermeasure. If King Qi had never met He Yuyao, she was going to lie on the bed instead of He Yuyao. Medicine, can be interpreted as: hematemesis caused by stagnation in the heart.Now hearing the other party's answer, Shen Xuan knew that this method could not be used, so she had to think of another strategy.

Seeing the changing expression on Shen Xuan's face, He Yuyao hurriedly asked, "Sister Shen, what happened?"

Shen Xuan glanced at He Yuyao, saw the anxiety in the other party's eyes, and then explained aloud, "King Qi will bring the imperial doctor to the mansion later, and it should be for Sister He's pulse, to test Sister He's condition true and false."

"What? What can I do? My condition?" He Yuyao said a little helplessly after hearing Shen Xuan's answer.Thinking that Shen Xuan was making plans for these days, she quickly grabbed Shen Xuan's arm and asked eagerly, "Sister Shen, what should I do? What can you do? King Qi is not an easy person to provoke, King Qi came with his imperial doctor..."

"Sister He, don't worry, there is still some time before King Qi and the others come. Let's think about it carefully, and we will definitely find a way to deal with it." Shen Xuan looked at the other party's panicked expression, and quickly comforted her.

Under Shen Xuan's reassurance, He Yuyao's mentality finally adjusted, and her mind returned to her original position. Although she was still worried in her heart, it no longer showed on her face.

There were a few knocks on the door, and the voice of the maid Qiutong sounded outside the door, "Miss, your medicine is here." In order to match the actual situation, He Yuyao brought several bowls of medicine soup into the room every day .

"Bring it in." He Yuyao ordered outside the door.

Hearing He Yuyao's answer, the maid Qiutong pushed open the door and walked in, holding a bowl of soup with a strong smell in her hand, and put the bowl of soup on the table.

The smell of Tang Nei spread into the air and was inhaled by Shen Xuan who was sitting next to her.Um?How could there be the smell of Tiannanxing, which is obviously poisonous, Shen Xuan wondered if there was something wrong with her sense of smell.In order to prove it, Shen Xuan brought the bowl of soup medicine in front of her, scooped up a spoonful of it with a spoon, carefully checked the eyes of the medicine soup, and carefully explained the medicinal materials in it.

Shen Xuan's actions aroused the suspicion of He Yuyao and Qiu Tong, the maid. The master and servant looked at each other, guessing in their hearts.After seeing Shen Xuan put down the spoon, she asked aloud, "Sister Shen, is there something wrong with this medicine?"

"There is an extra herbal medicine called Tiannanxing added here. This medicine is poisonous. If Sister He really drank this medicine due to illness today, she will probably be poisoned after a long time." Shen Xuan replied calmly, but her heart was not calm. Someone actually tried to harm the sister-in-law she recognized under her nose, this matter should be severely punished.

"Oh my god, how could it be poisonous? Which backstabber is this, who wants to murder Miss?" the servant girl Qiu Tong cursed angrily, with an expression that wanted to tear the person who poisoned behind the scenes immediately.

"Okay, Qiutong, stop scolding, you boiled the medicine." Although He Yuyao felt uncomfortable when she heard that someone was poisoned, she immediately stopped her when she saw Qiutong's reaction.

He Yuyao's reminder made the servant girl Qiutong realize the origin of the medicine. She brewed it herself. Thinking of the fact that it was poisonous, she knelt down in fright and begged for mercy, "Miss, you have to trust your slave, this poison is definitely not a slave's poison." The servants don't know how the medicine turned into poison."

Seeing Qiutong's tearful appearance, He Yuyao's expression was calm. Although she believed that the poison was not poisoned by the maid Qiutong, it was a fact that the poison in the medicine was frightened, and Qiutong had an inescapable dereliction of duty. crime.

Taking a peek at He Yuyao's expression, Qiutong continued to cry and said, "Miss, you have to trust the servant, the servant really doesn't know what's going on. The servant has been with the lady since she was a child, how could the servant harm you? ..."

"Okay, don't cry, get up quickly, I didn't see sister Shen still here." He Yuyao interrupted Qiutong's crying, seeing Qiutong's tear-stained face, she felt the same in her heart It hurts, after all, she is the maid who has been by her side for many years.
