Chapter 238 Don't Punish You

"What! Poisoning?" Qin Mengyao and Mingyan said in unison. After Mingyan looked at the food on the table in fear, Yoyo even invited him to eat together, but out of fear of Qin Mengyao, it was only a symbolic gesture. Leave one egg.Thinking about it this way, if he opened his mouth to eat, I'm afraid it's not just Yoyo who is lying on the bed right now.

"You, go find a few rotten sweet potatoes and make a glass of water," the doctor called Mingyan seriously, and told him some precautions, but because he couldn't determine why Yoyo was poisoned, the doctor didn't dare to give the exact answer. Reply, using rotten sweet potatoes is just using the method of fighting poison with poison to reduce the poisoning reaction.

"Miss San, I'm really sorry, I don't know much about poisoning, why don't you invite another expert?"

"Who is the most proficient in poisoning in the Fuchu?"

"Back to Miss San, it's Dr. Hu, but he was not on duty last night, so he went home. Another Dr. Liu, he also has a lot of research on detoxification. I have a headache, so I sent Dr. Liu to the Qin Mansion for treatment..."

Qin Mengyao stared blankly at the sweaty Yoyo.Youyou's complexion has changed from the sallow color just now to pale, if it drags on, it might be... But why is it such a coincidence that at this juncture, all the people in the mansion who can detoxify are not in the mansion!

"Mr. Sun, why are you here..." The doctor turned around and suddenly saw Mr. Sun, as if grasping at straws, he immediately went up to meet him.

"How's the situation?" Sun Taiyi took off the white gauze around his face. Since his entry and exit of the Huo Mansion is a very private matter, he always tries to avoid being seen and recognized by others, so he always enters and exits through the back door , and cover his face, so as not to be discovered and cause unnecessary trouble.

"The patient's body is hot and his lips are black. The initial judgment is poisoning, but the villain is not sure. I hope that Dr. Sun will give advice." Dr. Li, who was in a state of anxiety, immediately told Dr. Sun what he knew, and waited anxiously for Dr. Sun diagnosis.

Physician Sun took a brief look at Yoyo's face, grasped Yoyo's small arm, and tested her pulse, "Well, it is indeed poisoned. It's just that the poisoning is still shallow, and there is still hope to be saved!"

"Doctor, this is the rotten sweet potato water you asked for." Mingyan carefully brought in a bowl of water with a strange smell, and brought it in front of Dr. Li.

Dr. Li was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he brought the medicine to Imperial Physician Sun's side, "Emperor Physician, this is my own initiative, I made a bowl of rotten sweet potato water, look..."

"Well, yes, you should give him less to drink first," Imperial Physician Sun nodded. Chinese medicine always pays attention to fighting poison with poison, and rotten sweet potatoes are highly poisonous, so they can also be used as materials for detoxification.

"Miss San, please send someone to the pharmacy to get these medicines, boil three bowls of water into one bowl of water, and take it for this little brother after decoction, once in the morning and once in the evening, after two doses of the medicine, you are guaranteed to be alive and well." Sun said. After the imperial physician finished speaking, he put on the white gauze again, and walked leisurely towards Qinxinyuan.

After pouring down the rotten sweet potato water, Yoyo's stomach gurgled non-stop, and then bent over to spit out all the food residue in the stomach, followed by a burst of tumbling in the stomach.

Qin Mengyao's brain ached from the anxiety of tidying up the mess that Yoyo had caused.

"Mingyan, do you know where Youyou got the rice from?"

"Uh, this, this servant doesn't know. Originally, this servant wanted to go to the dining room to get food, but Young Master Youyou insisted on going alone. Later, he came back soon, with this food box in his hand." Mingyan fetched a handkerchief , slowly brought the food box in front of Qin Mengyao, pointed to the food on the table and said, "Then Mr. Youyou said that miss, you like soy milk fritters the most, so I specially bought more fritters."

Qin Mengyao looked at Yoyo lying on the bed with emotion, and felt more and more sad. If he hadn't slept in, Yoyo wouldn't have gone to get the meal, let alone such a poisoning incident, so in the final analysis, it was his own fault. But who on earth would be so ruthless in the meal!
"How is that child?" Huo Shuangcheng squinted at the Podocarpus pine in the courtyard. This tree had been planted here since he joined the army. On the battlefield, the other one is by his side but it is as if he is not by his side, maybe it is really his descendants who are not related to each other.

"Poisoned, but fortunately, there is no danger to life now." Imperial Physician Sun sat peacefully on the imperial chair, enjoying the rare good tea.

"Absurd, someone will be poisoned in the dignified Huo mansion?" Huo Shuangcheng's eyes widened suddenly. In those days, the matter of being poisoned by chronic poison has not been settled yet. I didn't expect someone to be poisoned now. In the dignified general's mansion, It's really a disgrace to the Huo family to use such a despicable method!

"Do you know who made it?"

"Hehe, my lord general, you don't even know about your own family's housework, but I, an outsider, have heard about it. As for whether it's true or not, it's hard to say." Sun Taiyi laughed loudly, but suddenly a picture appeared in his mind. The figure of a woman.

Speaking of Dr. Sun, everyone knows that he is the old master of the Imperial Hospital. Although he usually looks amiable, but few people dare to go forward to cling to him, not only because of his admirable medical skills, but also because he used to have a Black history makes the listener daunting.

Sun Taiyi grew up with Huo Shuangcheng since childhood, and later Huo Shuangcheng went to the frontier to fight. Sun Taiyi had not been out of the army for a long time, so he asked to become a doctor with the army.The two were born and died on the battlefield. Later, Huo Shuangcheng fell into a trap and was surrounded by the enemy. Doctor Sun ignored the obstruction of others and forced his way out with poisonous gas. It was also from that time that Huo Shuangcheng's body was attacked by poisonous gas. He was treated, but his viscera were damaged, and his physical condition continued to deteriorate.

Later, Imperial Physician Sun entered the palace and entered the imperial hospital. Huo Shuangcheng resigned from office after a few years of illness, but the relationship between the two became more and more profound with time.

"What do you know? Let's hear it," Huo Shuangcheng leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes slightly.

"Do you still remember that three years ago, I sent a little eunuch to deliver medicine to you, and I met a little maid at the gate of Qinxin Yuan." Imperial Physician Sun finished speaking slowly, sorting out his thoughts.

"How can I remember such a long time ago, you focus on it."

"Look at you, you are still in such a hurry, how many times have I told you to calm down! Speaking of that little girl, after listening to the little eunuch's description, I suddenly thought of the deceased madam in my heart."

"Qinqin?" Huo Shuangcheng straightened up with a surprised tone.

"Listen to me speaking slowly. Later, I secretly sent someone to investigate, but I never saw that little maid again." After finishing speaking, seeing Huo Shuangcheng's complexion getting worse and worse, he felt very sorry. , every time he mentions Qinqin, he is always sad.Some people, not even time can erase her imprint in love.

"Since that's the case, why do you need to mention, alas, Qinqin has been gone for so many years in a blink of an eye."

"However, last month, I seemed to see that woman again. I have to say that from a distance, that woman looked exactly like Qinqin, but she was younger than Qinqin. If Qinqin lived to this day, she would be 40 years old. Let's go around."

"When Qinqin married me, it was a very good time. In the blink of an eye, it has been twenty years. It's a pity that the time I spend with her is not even a fraction." Huo Shuangcheng sighed, Qinqin and him are typical old men and young women. Wife, from the betrothal ceremony to the marriage, I don't know how many people have talked about it, but Qinqin is full of hope for herself, but he has brought her far more disappointment than hope, and every time he thinks of it, he is always full of regret.

"You owe her, but after so many years, you should let it go." Doctor Sun sighed, and then continued the topic just now: "Before Young Master Kang went out for an expedition, you happened to have an asthma attack. When you passed by Young Master Kang's yard, I saw a woman looking at the door, so I took another look curiously. Later, when I came to the gate of Qinxinyuan, I saw this woman again, leaning over in front of the water tank. I wanted to go over to find out. But the line of sight was blocked by someone, and when I looked again, the figure disappeared. Later, when I fetched water, I found no signs of poison, and your condition did improve after that, so I didn’t investigate further.”

"Why didn't you say such an important thing at the time!" Huo Shuangcheng's eyes widened angrily, and he almost jumped up.

"If I tell you, you will just sit and wait for others to harm you? What if you startle the snake, so I want to investigate again under the premise of ensuring your safety, and I will tell you when the truth comes out. However, a whole This month, this woman seems to have disappeared and never appeared again."

"You mean she might have put something in the tank?"

Huo Shuangcheng shook his head, if someone deliberately harmed him, how could he still have the opportunity to sit here, or was it for revenge?
"Youyou's poisoning today is due to breakfast. One piece of soy milk was mixed with raw food. Second, there seemed to be other things in the fried dough sticks, which caused the acute poisoning." , How can there be raw soy milk?

"How can there be soy milk in the mansion? Qinqin hates soy milk the most, so there has been no soy milk in the mansion for more than 20 years." There was something in the doctor Sun's words, and it was only then that Huo Shuangcheng realized that someone in Huo's mansion seemed to be ready to move.

"Brother Sun, just say it directly, what do you think?" Huo Shuangcheng looked straight at Doctor Sun. The two of them have been together for a lifetime, and Old Man Sun's temper is still so twists and turns. It's really hard to imagine a hot tempered person. A twists and turns, how did the two bear each other.

"There are unclean people in the house. Ever since you were poisoned, I have started to pay attention to the people around you. Besides your second concubine, there seems to be another person secretly watching you. I suspect that this person has something to do with Qinqin. "After Sun Taiyi finished speaking, Huo Shuangcheng didn't speak for a while.

"If it really has something to do with Qinqin, I will die with no regrets..." After Huo Shuangcheng finished speaking quietly, the room fell into silence.

In the small courtyard, Chuntao was diligently scrubbing the sheets and bedding that Yoyo had soiled in the morning. Qin Mengyao, after coaxing Yoyo to sleep, came to the courtyard to help Chuntao wash the clothes.

Chuntao pounded on the bed sheet with a lot of worry, and became more and more irritable when she saw Qin Mengyao reaching out to help.

She bit her lip, wishing she could knock a big hole out of the bed sheet. Qin Mengyao saw that she was acting uncharacteristically, so she couldn't help but look at her a few more times, and asked, "Chuntao, what's wrong with you?"

"No, it's nothing." Chuntao dodged her eyes, and the expression on her face became more and more unnatural.

"Are you feeling sad because of what happened to Yoyo? It's okay, Yoyo is healed now, and he ate something unclean, that's why he's like this, it has nothing to do with you, don't take it to heart. "

After Qin Mengyao finished speaking, Chuntao beat the wooden stick faster and faster, and finally hit her hand with a bang. She pinched her red fingers, and finally raised her head awkwardly, avoiding Qin Mengyao's gaze, The sound was soft like a mosquito buzzing.

Chuntao said, "Actually, there are no deep-fried dough sticks and soy milk in Huo's residence."

Qin Mengyao remained silent after hearing this, and stared at Chuntao with fiery eyes. She originally thought that Chuntao was sad because of Youyou's poisoning, but she didn't expect that there was something else in it.

"Then do you know what's going on with breakfast today!"

Chuntao avoided Qin Mengyao's gaze, her thick lips trembled a little, she stood up in a daze, and wiped soap foam all over her body.

"You already knew, didn't you?" Qin Mengyao finally couldn't help but yelled at her, looking at Chuntao's appearance, it was obvious that she knew something inside, but she had the heart to watch Yoyo being poisoned, and she didn't want to tell her, it was a waste of time Qin Mengyao's sincerity towards Chuntao in the past!
"I, I went to the big kitchen to look for my mother last night..." Chuntao took two steps back in fright, wrapped her hands around the corners of her clothes unconsciously, and said with her head down, "But my mother is not here, so it really has nothing to do with me. I just sneaked in to steal chicken legs to eat, and did nothing else..."

Chuntao's body began to tremble. Seeing her appearance, Qin Mengyao suddenly calmed down. After so many days, she knew that Chuntao was a simple and honest person, and with her temperament, she really couldn't do anything harmful.

"Chuntao, don't get excited, sit down, take a deep breath, don't get excited, or you'll get sick again..." Qin Mengyao helped Chuntao sit down on the bench, and when Chuntao calmed down, he looked into her eyes again and asked: " What have you heard, as long as you say it, I will not punish you."

So, in Chuntao's extremely slow and disorderly words, Qin Mengyao finally understood the origin of the soy milk fritters.

It turned out that after dinner in the big kitchen yesterday, all the cooks left one after another after finishing their work. Chuntao saw that Qin Mengyao and Youyou were not in the yard, so she was so bored that she wanted to go to the kitchen to find her old lady.But after looking around, she didn't see her mother. It happened that there was no one in the big kitchen. Chuntao saw the plate of big chicken legs left on the shelf, and couldn't bear the greedy ones, so she sneaked over, grabbed a chicken leg and started to eat it. .

But after eating two bites, two people came in at the door, so frightened that Chuntao immediately bent down, but fortunately, the two did not notice Chuntao's existence, Chuntao grabbed the chicken leg, and did not dare to make a sound, only showing two eyes, watching carefully Two people not far away.One of them seemed to be carrying a wooden food box, and placed it heavily in front of the stove, while the other turned his back to Chuntao, opened the food box, took a look, and asked the person carrying the wooden box, "Are you sure about this kind of food?" What can she eat?"
