At dawn, another carriage hurriedly stopped at the entrance of the government office.

Xu Yuanqi jumped out of the carriage first, then turned around and carefully helped Su Yunniang down from the carriage. The two of them had been running around for most of the night, with a trace of exhaustion on their faces.

The groom knocked on the door.

"Who?" Xu Quanyou poked his head out and asked suspiciously.

"We are from Longtan Town, we are here to find Master Xiao." The groom replied.

"You wait." Xu Quan closed the door, turned around and walked in, just in time to see Shunzi pacing back and forth in the yard, and stepped forward and said, "A carriage came outside, said to be from your Longtan Town .”

"I'll go and have a look." Shunzi ran out.

"Master Xu, Miss Su, no, Mrs. Xu!" Shunzi opened the door and saw two people standing at the door, his eyes lit up, "Come in, please."

"How is Mrs. Xiao?" Su Yuniang glanced at Xu Yuanqi and asked.

"I woke up last night and ate something, and I'm falling asleep now, but Mrs. Zhao said that Madam has a fever, and he also boiled some medicine, saying that he will drink it after she wakes up." Shunzi said while walking.

"Master Xu is here." The people in the yard were a little surprised when they saw Xu Yuanqi, how did he know?

"I'll go in and see Mrs. Xiao first." Su Yuniang bowed to everyone and walked in.

"Come on, Yuan Qi, let's sit here." Xiao Jingzhi pulled Xu Yuanqi into the main hall, and Ah Li hurried over to serve tea and water.

"My lord!" Seeing Xiao Chengyu sitting by the bed, holding a cloth towel and wiping his wife's face, Su Yunniang stepped forward and asked. "How is it? But you have a fever?"

"Mrs. Xu is here." Xiao Chengyu heard the two coming from the room, so he smiled at her and said, "It was a sudden fever in the morning, and my father said that when she wakes up, give her some antipyretic medicine and it will be fine!"

"My lord, let me have a look." Su Yunniang stepped forward to take the cloth towel in his hand, and said, "Take a break!"

"Then it's time to work!" Xiao Chengyu got up.stand aside.

Su Yunniang checked the injury carefully, then stretched out her hand to test Lin Xueman's forehead. It was really hot, so she frowned and said, "My lord, Madam has a high fever because the toxins in the wound have not gone away, and the antipyretic medicine only treats the symptoms but not the root cause. Right now, we have to Detoxify!"

"Need to detoxify?" Xiao Chengyu said, "Last night, she woke up and ate something, and her energy is not bad. The toxin must have gone!"

"My lord." Su Yunniang shook her head and said. "I think Madam is still poisonous."

"Is there any poison?" The stone that Xiao Chengyu put down in his heart hung up again.

"If you have an injury on your body, you will definitely have a fever. This is also expected." Father Zhao listened at the door and walked in. "The toxins on the body will be excreted slowly, and it is impossible to remove them all at once."

"But the poison on my body can't be cured. I will definitely have a fever!" Su Yunniang said, taking out a small bottle from her arms.Handed it to Xiao Chengyu and said, "My lord, here are some antidote medicines, give it to Madam!"

Xiao Chengyu took it, opened it, and looked at it. Inside were some small black pills, which smelled a little fishy, ​​so he asked, "Where did this medicine come from?"

"It's a detoxification prescription handed down by the people. I heard that the effect is not bad." Su Yunniang smiled lightly, "We are not just here to see Madam, but to deliver the antidote!"

"Let me see." When Father Zhao heard that it was a prescription for detoxification, he became interested, took it quickly, poured out a pill from it, crushed it in the palm of his hand, and examined it carefully for a long time. It is also made from poisonous fish viscera.

"Then thank you Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu!" Xiao Chengyu smiled at her.

"Take the fever-reducing medicine first, and then talk! If you can't get rid of it, then talk!" Father Zhao frowned, "We use the method of fighting poison with poison!"

At this time, Xu Quanyou knocked on the door outside, saying that he was looking for Master Xiao.

Xiao Chengyu hurried out.

"My lord!" Xu Quanyou said in a low voice, "Last night, the people guarding Lanxiangyuan found a few suspicious people. They were not from Bingzhou, nor did they know the people in Lanxiangyuan. I just came to Bingzhou."

"Don't startle the snake, just keep following." Xiao Chengyu said calmly, "We'll talk about it after finding out where those people came from."

Xu Quanyou looked around at the figures walking around in the yard, and said, "My lord, there have been a lot of people coming to see my wife recently, you must be careful, after all, people are unpredictable. Last time, I failed to shoot and kill my lord, so I'm afraid they won't give up. .”

"I see, thank you for reminding me." Xiao Chengyu naturally guessed who sent the person who shot him, but it was inconvenient to reveal it, and he said seriously, "I can't get away these few days, but everything must be done as usual." It doesn’t matter if you spend more money if you plan to act, the key is to get things done well, you must be careful.”

"Don't worry, my lord. Wuzhi County has obtained the money and has ordered a thorough investigation of several small mines. It's just that there are still four large mines. He hasn't moved them yet, but ordered them to close down. But as far as my subordinates know, those people are still rushing to work at night. .” Xu Quanyou said.

Xiao Chengyu smiled slightly when he heard the words, this is what he wanted.

Some time ago, he had privately inquired about the word-of-mouth of this magistrate. He was an insatiable person. He thought that Wu Zhixian had been in Bingzhou for many years, so it was impossible not to have contact with the mines. If he wanted to know his details, he had to take action to rectify those mines. Well, he secretly kept those mines, so naturally he was tricked by him.

As for the remaining four mines, it's time for him to take action, but at this time, something happened to Lin Xueman, otherwise, he would have done it long ago!

"Guard Xu." Xiao Chengyu thought for a while and said, "Since Wuzhi County has closed several small mines, some people will inevitably lose their jobs. If you do this, recruit people in private, and the treatment is the same as that of people in the yamen. , just say to the outside world that you want to set up an escort agency and need some manpower, but don't say it is the meaning of the Yamen!"

"Yes!" Xu Quanyou's expression froze immediately.

The day was almost over, and Lin Xueman's fever still persisted, and the ups and downs were very worrying.

Father Zhao was also a little restless. This was the first time he encountered such a situation. Could it be that there was some other poison on the arrow that he couldn't see?

"How is it?" Xu Yuanqi saw Su Yunniang walking out.Asked in a low voice, "Could it be that Mr. Xiao can't trust us?"

"Lord Xiao heard that using poison to fight poison is still hesitating." Su Yunniang looked at him expressionlessly, "If you tell us that the medicine was sent by His Highness, believe it or not, Lord Xiao will drive us out immediately!"

"Didn't you say there is no problem with the antidote?" Xu Yuanqi looked at her and said, "I trust your judgment."

"What's the use of your belief!" Su Yunniang smiled faintly, "Master Xiao must believe it!"

The two were speechless for a while.

"How about trying this medicine?" Father Zhao hesitated.Looking at Xiao Chengyu, he said, "Maybe Mrs. Xu is right. It is because the toxin has not been removed that your daughter-in-law has a persistent high fever. I have nothing to do!"

"There is already poison on her body. Wouldn't it be good if I added some more poison?" Yang hesitated, "I think she is much better, maybe tomorrow morning, the fever will subside."

"Three days is a time limit, how dare you go any further. It keeps doing this, how can it happen?" Xiao Jingzhi said.He looked at Xiao Chengyu and said, "Chengyu, this is your daughter-in-law. It's up to you to make up your mind whether to feed this medicine or not. We people can't be her masters!"

Xiao Chengyu looked at Lin Xueman who was lying on the bed.It was painful to see the expression on her face.He kept talking in his sleep, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Hey! At worst, it won't work, it can't be worse! I believe in Master Xu!"

Since Xu Yuanqi likes this woman, then Xu Yuanqi has no reason to harm her. As a man, he understands this kind of feeling. If he thought of Xu Yuanqi's thoughts in the past, he would hate him so much, but now he can't care so much. Now He just wanted to save her...

"Xueman, get up and take your medicine, you will be fine after taking this medicine!" Xiao Chengyu stepped forward to wake her up and said.

"Cheng Yu." Lin Xueman opened his eyes, looked at him, and said weakly, "My head is heavy, am I dying?"

"Don't be stupid, even if you want to die, God will not agree, because you haven't done what you promised me!" Xiao Chengyu poured out a few medicines from the bottle, and forced a smile, "You forgot, you Said you were going to give birth to a daughter for me."

"Cheng Yu, I heard what you said!" She looked at him and said with tears, "If I die, don't be sad, you have to take good care of Linlin, bring him up well, and don't let him be wronged ,You promised me!"

Xiao Jingzhi and Father Zhao turned around and walked out after hearing the words.

"I can't promise you, your child, you bring it yourself!" Xiao Chengyu said dumbly.

"I want to see Linlin!" Lin Xueman took the medicine slowly, looked at Xiao Chengyu, and said quietly, she felt that she was extremely exhausted physically and mentally, and she no longer had any hope for herself. Well, just before leaving, she wanted to see her flesh and blood left in this other world...

"The child is already asleep, wait until you are well!" Yang walked over, the corners of his mouth moved, wiped the tears from his eyes, and smiled sadly.

"Mrs. Xiao, how are you doing?" Su Yuniang hurried in after hearing that Zhao's father had taken the medicine, and asked.

"Just took it, we have to wait and see if it works." Yang said.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Suddenly, Lin Xueman coughed, stood up and spat out a mouthful of blood, and then passed out.

"Xueman." Xiao Chengyu shouted in shock.

"Mrs. Xiao." Su Yunniang is not a doctor, and she has never seen such a scene, she also panicked, her face paled immediately, and she asked repeatedly, "How could this happen? How could this happen?"

Mrs. Yang rushed forward to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth in a hurry, and said in a hurry: "Go and call Father Zhao."

Ali quickly ran out.

"This medicine?" Seeing Su Yunniang panicked, Xiao Chengyu's heart sank, and suddenly remembered Xu Quanyou's words, so he looked at her and asked suspiciously, "Is this medicine really a folk prescription?"

"Lord Xiao." Xu Yuanqi hurried in and said in a deep voice, "To be honest, this is the medicine brought by His Highness!"

"What?" Xiao Chengyu suddenly became furious, stepped forward and grabbed his skirt, and roared, "Why didn't you say it earlier? Did you intend to kill her?"

Xu Yuanqi was also there for the old lady's incident last time, so he naturally knew that it was Ma Haoxuan's fault, so can the medicine that Ma Haoxuan brought be eaten?

"My lord, calm down." Su Yunniang hurriedly stepped forward and said, "This medicine was brought by His Highness, but it is indeed an antidote. Yuan Qi should have come here a long time ago, but for the safety of his wife, he He went back to Longtan Town and took me with him, found several doctors and asked them one by one, and they all said it was the antidote, so he dared to bring it here!"

"Cheng Yu, don't get excited." Xiao Jing pulled him away and said, "How can you blame Yuan Qi, he is also kind, let Mr. Zhao have a look first, the matter has not reached this point yet!"

"Good intentions?" Xiao Chengyu let go of Xu Yuanqi, shook his head, and said, "Master Xu, I trust you so much!"

"Lord Xiao, it's my fault for concealing the origin of the prescription!" Xu Yuanqi looked at the blood on the ground and said in a daze, "But Yuan Qi absolutely has no intention of harming Madam!"

"Is it useful to say this now?" Xiao Chengyu waved his hands at them and said exhaustedly, "You all go out! I don't blame anyone, I only blame myself! I made her take that medicine."

No one in the room moved, it was silent.

Here, Father Zhao took the pulse, his face beamed with joy, and he said loudly: "Cheng Yu, your daughter-in-law is really fine now, the fever has completely subsided, and that medicine is the real antidote!"
