Chapter 526 - 526 You’re moving out of the house tomorrow
Reborn to Be A Noble Wife
Qu Zhizhen came quite quickly, and after hearing that something had happened to the Dowager Lady, he hurriedly entered the inner courtyard and came over to the Dowager Ladyâs courtyard.
As soon as he entered, he asked anxiously, âHow is mother?â
âFather!â Qu Mo Ying stood up to greet her, she was uneasy and had been guarding the dowager ladyâs place without leaving.
âFang just used the medicine prescribed by the doctor, slightly better, but must not be as effective as the previous pills, before it was very uncomfortable for a while, fussing until now to sleep.â Grandma Wu hurriedly reported.
âWhy donât you take the pills, they were only brought in earlier and have already been used up?â Qu Zhizhen said unhappily, this matter was known to him.
Said he hurried into the inner room.
Inside, the Mrs. only slept, but looked bad, face a white face, both is asleep, the brow is still tightly locked, sleep is not stable, before the bed, a small maid stood there waiting, afraid that she fell asleep, there is something wrong.
Qu Zhizhen gently retreated, and only when he reached the door did he re-ask Sister Wu, âWhat the hell is going on here?â
As soon as he entered, he felt that something was wrong, and even if he didnât understand things yet, he had already sensed that something was not right here.
My Sister did not hide anything and told everything in a nutshell.
From Luoâs idea of letting Qu Mo Ying send body tonic medicine to Qu Xuexin as soon as she entered the house, to the current Mrs. Taiâs almost having an accident, or because of the pills made by the Imperial Doctor in the palace.
As soon as Qu Zhizhen heard this, his face changed drastically, and his gaze lifted and landed on Qu Mo Yingâs body with a few moments of scrutiny.
Qu Mo Ying stood frankly to the side, raising her head to look at Qu Zhi Zhen, the gaze under her eyes not flickering, not half-hearted.
The room was suddenly quiet, and then Qu Zhizhen nodded, âGive me these pills along with the vials, Iâll take them back and have them checked again!â
Sister Wu answered and put the pills into a medicine bottle, carefully handing it to Qu Zhizhen.
Qu Zhizhen took it and turned around to leave, but suddenly stopped and looked at Qu Mo Ying, âYou wait here first, and if there is anything wrong with your grandmother, immediately come and inform my father.â
âYes!â Qu Mo Ying gave a sideways salute, she would be uneasy about her grandmother this time, so naturally she wouldnât leave.
Qu Zhizhen left and went to the study, and then took out another few bottles of medicine from the drawer in the study, and together they brought them towards the residence of one of the eunuchs outside the palace.
This is what he asked this eunuch to help make.
Since the opening of the mouth, this medicine is certainly not just a bottle, the number of each time to do, are the number of drugs he prepared to set the number of drugs, but this medicine can not be placed for too long, the Dowager Lady is not always need to take the time, every now and then the Dowager Ladyâs old illnesses recur when, with this pill is the best, weekdays only need ordinary medicine to adjust with the line.
These several medicines are too medicinal, and do not take advantage of the usual concoctions, but just can strongly press the bodyâs old problems, so that when the dowager lady is sick, it is not so painful, and it is also considered to be treating the symptoms but not the root cause of the problem, but the effect of the strong pressure when it is still good.
Qu Zhizhen in the past, usually ask the doctor to help make five, six bottles, for fear that the wifeâs side of the age, taking medicine without a number, each time only send a bottle over, the doctor also said the general situation of a disease, a bottle of almost, the other take the ordinary medicine on the line.
Thatâs why every time after fetching it back from the Imperial Doctor, Qu Zhizhen placed the other bottles of medicine in his study, and only when the Dowager Ladyâs place ran out would he send over another bottle, only to say that it wasnât too easy to beg to avoid the Dowager Ladyâs overuse of medication.
That eunuch happened to be off duty and in the mansion, and when he heard that Squire Qu was seeking an audience, he immediately invited him in.
After carefully checking these medicines, the eunuch handed the problematic bottle to Qu Zhizhenâs face, and said with a straight face, âServant Qu, this bottle of medicine is indeed also made by me, but this was coated with medicinal liquid unfavorable to the body of the dowager lady of your house, and a few more pills may cause an accident, and now the dowager lady of your house has used a few pills?â
âUsed a pill!â Qu Zhizhenâs face was ugly, his study place, the pills were taken to the dowager ladyâs place yesterday, and they were taken yesterday, and something happened today, how do you look at it, itâs not like the dowager ladyâs place is out of order, itâs more like the things that he placed in his study.
How could he not be outraged that there was a problem in his study.
âLuckily itâs just one pill, the rest are all fine, the Squire Lord will give the fine ones to the Dowager Lady to take again, and then condition it with the usual potions, it will be fine like the next day.â The eunuch breathed a sigh of relief, he was also afraid that something would happen, and by then he himself would be somewhat unable to explain.
âJust this bottle is problematic, the others are fine.â He squarely opened all the bottles, one by one, and looked at all the medicines, after which he reloaded them back.
âThank you, Imperial Doctor!â Qu Zhizhen stood up and bowed deeply.
âServant Qu is polite!â The Imperial Doctor also stood up and returned the salute, after which he instructed uneasily, âServant Qu needs to be even more careful, this is someone trying to lay hands on the Dowager Lady, or rather plotting to kill her.â
âI know, Iâm bound to go back and inquire clearly.â Qu Zhizhen nodded his head with a gloomy face, and only after thanking the Imperial Doctor again did he turn around and head back to the mansion.
After returning to the mansion, did not immediately both go to see the dowager lady, only instructed the boy to take a bottle of pills that are fine to the dowager lady to send over, himself sitting in the study with a gloomy face.
It was only after a good half a minute that he said in a deep voice, âGo and invite the Second Prince!â
âYes!â The boy answered the order and retreated, heading over to the East Mansion, the Second Duke was usually in the East Mansion, rarely in the West Mansion.
âFather!â As Qu Mingcheng entered, he bowed deeply and respectfully to Qu Zhizhen.
Qu Zhizhen didnât say anything, lifting his eyes to look at his son grimly, scrutinizing him.
âFather, did something happen?â Qu Mingcheng raised his eyes, his face slightly flustered.
âYou donât know what happened?â Qu Zhizhen asked with a cold smile.
âFather, I ⦠am bent on reading, I really donât know anything yet.â Qu Mingcheng hardened his head and said, the father who was kind and gentle in the past, the pressure he gave him today was really too much, making his heart a little panicky.
But then he told himself that whatever happened, it had nothing to do with him, and that no matter how this was investigated, it could not be investigated on his own head, so there was no need to panic.
For fear that things would end up messing with himself, he had been reading behind closed doors today, and hadnât let his boy inquire about anything, so even now he didnât know that things had gone awry.
âYou donât know?â Qu Zhizhen sneered, reaching out to pick up a scroll in his hand and slamming it down hard.
Qu Mingcheng didnât realize that he had been hit squarely, and reached out to cover his forehead, calling out in a panic, âFather!â
âSay, what has your mother done?â Qu Zhizhen sneered once more.
âFather ⦠I ⦠donât know what you are talking about?â Qu Mingcheng panicked, his eyes flickering as he dared not meet Qu Zhizhenâs eyes.
âYou donât know? Do you want me to tell you about it.â Qu Zhizhen snapped, âWhatâs going on with your great aunt, and whatâs going on with your grandmotherâs medicine?â
The only thing Qu Zhizhen had to do about the pills in the study was to talk to Yu about it, and this was also to prevent a situation where the dowager lady would have an attack when he wasnât in the mansion and didnât have any medicine on hand.
Yuâs in the time, these medicines are actually basically considered in the hands of Yuâs, do not need him to bother, Mrs. side of the exhaustion, Yuâs will send people over to pick up the past, sent to the hands of the Mrs..
Now that Yu is not here, he is also a little slower to react here, My Sister had mentioned before that the pills by the side of the Dowager Lady were gone, Qu Zhizhen was busy for a while and never remembered it, or yesterday My Sister sent someone over again, Qu Zhizhen remembered the matter, and purposely asked someone to take a bottle of the pills over to him.
I didnât expect anything to happen to this bottle.
If there is anyone else in the house who might have tampered with the pills, it would have to be Yu, but now that Yu is not here, plus Qu Mingcheng is stirring up this matter with Luo, Qu Zhizhen is of course most suspicious of Qu Mingcheng right now.
âFather ⦠father, I am concentrating on reading today, even the door of the house did not go out, really do not know what is the matter, father why this so so set to ask me, is it possible that something has happened in the house?â Qu Mingcheng forced down the panic in his heart and asked in a rapid voice, his face pale with a few points of panic.
But this panic could also be interpreted as being at a loss for words, at a loss for words because of Qu Zhizhenâs accusations.
âWhy did you help your great aunt to find the people of Qing Yun Guan?â Qu Zhizhen scrutinized him, his face grim.
âIt is the meaning of the great aunt, the great aunt also do not know where to hear, said the Qing Yun Guan Taoist nun is more psychic, can pressure peopleâs bad luck, divining good and bad luck, let me go to look for, but I can not find, there is no way out of it when I met Xu Zhiâan, it is his proposal to go to find another female Taoist nun, after that the things are the great aunt and the female Taoist nun themselves contact, and with me have nothing to do with it again. â
Qu Mingcheng was prepared and hurriedly said.
Hearing him say Xu Zhi Anâs name frankly, Qu Zhi Zhenâs face looked slightly better for a few points, âDidnât you say that you are dedicated to studying? How come your big brother didnât get involved in this, but you did?â
Compared to Qu Mingcheng, Qu Minghui was Luoâs own son.
âFather, Great Auntie has always been very good to me, I have been studying with Great Uncle for so many years, and I have always respected Great Auntie and Great Uncle, now that Great Auntie has something wrong, naturally I canât just stand by, and naturally Iâll help if I can, is there something wrong here?â
Qu Mingcheng said urgently, raising his eyes to Qu Zhizhen, his face full of panic, âCould it be that something has happened to Great Auntie?â
His panic mixed with the previous panic in one place, and it was really hard to tell what it was that he was panicking over.
The causes and consequences of these things, he has long been calculated in which, really not afraid of the father to ask, before slightly exposed traces, but also in the past days the fatherâs power is too heavy, so that he had a moment of panic, which in fact, has been slowly calmed down.
No matter what happened, it had nothing to do with him, even if grandmother would have died, it would have been because of that bitchy girl Qu Mo Ying, and had absolutely nothing to do with himself!
Even if you find out about that Jingâan real person, the only incense burner that showed its shape is long gone, and there is no evidence that the incense ash inside that incense burner was mixed with poison at that time.
As for the matter of the grandmother, it had even less to do with herself; her mother had only told herself a secret, and she had had a message passed on, as far as it went!
Thinking this way, the panic in his heart receded slightly, and although his face still looked alarmed, his heart had actually slowly calmed down.
But the next moment, he heard Qu Zhizhenâs gloomy voice,âYou will move out of the mansion tomorrow!â
Head suddenly raised, shocked, looked at Qu Zhizhen sitting above, a word could not be said â¦
